Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 413 More Than Two Thousand Years Later

Humanity's territory, the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, a desolate expanse of starry sky.

The avatar of the Flame God Clan slowly emerged from a planet before teleporting to his own divine kingdom.

Previously, within the perception range of the God of Crafts, Yang Wu, for his own safety, naturally left through the divine kingdom teleportation using the auxiliary life form.

Although the Lord of the Craftsmen wouldn't go so far as to use this to find Yang Wu's divine kingdom coordinates and cause destruction, it's still wise to be cautious in everything.

Moreover, with the enormous divine body of Yang Wu's Nether Sea Avatar now, the energy consumed to open the divine kingdom teleportation is negligible.

After the divine kingdom passage was opened, Yang Wu sensed the surrounding situation, then took a step and appeared directly in his own divine kingdom.

The space within the divine realm is vast and boundless, while the endless dark sea below is also constantly expanding.

Above the endless abyss, in the temple that radiated dazzling light, the avatar of the Flame God Clan stepped out, and in one step, he was already above the endless abyss.

"Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor!"

A layer of dark golden armor faintly appeared on the surface of the Yan God Clan clone's body, perfectly integrating with his divine body. Every part of this armor seemed to be completely fused with every cell in the Yan God Clan clone's divine body. An incomparably powerful force filled Yang Wu's divine body, a force that was incredibly strong and as majestic as a mountain.

Yang Wu slowly closed his eyes, silently sensing the full power of the Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor.

"As expected of the heaven-defying treasure armor specially prepared for me by Master Zuoshanke!" Yang Wu couldn't help but exclaim as he felt the boundless power of the Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor.

The Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor is a special armor that is extremely suitable for Yang Wu... to be precise, it should be a special armor that is extremely suitable for the use of the Yan God Clan's clone.

Generally speaking, both great treasures and supreme treasures rely on the powerful individuals' own understanding of the laws to activate their power. Therefore, even if a powerful individual obtains a heaven-defying treasure by chance, they will not be able to activate its power if their understanding of the laws is insufficient or incompatible.

Even now that Yang Wu has become a Universe Venerable, he cannot fully unleash the power of the Sun-Chasing and Moon-Chasing Boots he uses.

Unlike ordinary treasures and supreme treasures that rely on the understanding of laws to activate, this Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor is entirely activated by the strength of the divine body. The stronger the divine body, the stronger the power that can be activated.

If the divine body is not strong enough, even a high level of understanding of the laws is useless. But if the divine body is stronger, even a lower level of understanding of the laws doesn't matter.

"However, these don't have much impact on others; they're just more suitable for special life forms and my avatar of the Flame God Clan!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

After all, for most powerful individuals, their understanding of the laws and the strength of their divine body complement each other. The higher their understanding of the laws, the higher their own realm will be, and as long as they are not intentionally holding back their level, their divine body strength will naturally be very high.

Only some special life forms with naturally powerful divine bodies can possess extremely high divine body strength even with a weak understanding of the laws.

Then there's Yang Wu's Yan God Clan clone!

In fact, Yang Wu's current understanding of the laws has reached the limit of a Universe Venerable. As long as he comprehends the laws of time, he can become the Lord of the Universe. Even in the vast universe, he is not considered weak.

However, compared to the divine body strength of the Yan God Clan's avatar, it pales in comparison.

After all, having reached the level of perfect life genes, Yang Wu's current divine body strength has surpassed that of some newly broken through universe lords, and the size of his divine body is far greater.

The Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor has three forms.

The first form requires ten million times the power of a World Lord to activate. After activation, it can reduce material attacks to one-thousandth of their original value and soul attacks to one-tenth of their original value. Generally speaking, some special life forms with extremely high life gene levels, as well as newly broken through Universe Venerables, can meet the activation conditions.

The second form requires a hundred billion times the power of a World Lord to activate. Once activated, it can weaken material attacks to one ten-thousandth of their original value and soul attacks to one-tenth of their original value. Generally speaking, some cosmic venerables with higher levels of life genes can also activate this form after burning their immortal divine power.

As for the third form, it requires ten trillion times the power of a realm lord to activate. Once activated, it can reduce material attacks to one ten-thousandth of their original strength and soul attacks to one-tenth of their original strength. Even the current Yan God Clan avatar needs to burn its immortal divine body before it can activate this form.

Moreover, once fully activated, the Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor can manifest eight phantom images of beast gods around the body to assist in attacks. As for the strength of the beast god phantom images, it depends entirely on the user's comprehension of the laws of the corresponding beast god's way.

This is undoubtedly an extremely powerful and extraordinary treasure, emphasizing both defense and offense. Even across the entire vast universe, there are probably very few like it.

If this supreme treasure were to appear publicly in the universe, it would likely attract countless super beings to vie for it. It would be quite normal for one or two universe lords to perish as a result.

Of course, this is nothing to a reincarnated god-king who is skilled in crafting treasures, but for the current avatar of the Yan God Clan, it is something he can rely on to roam the universe.

"With the strength of the Flame God Clan's avatar, after acquiring this Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor, even facing the Lord of the Universe would probably be a piece of cake!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

Of course, despite these thoughts, Yang Wu didn't intend to test the Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor's power against a Universe Lord. After all, aside from defense, he still had considerable room for improvement in other areas.

With the time simulator available, the required time is not too short.

"However, now that I already possess the Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor, the previous Sun God Armor seems to be of little use. It can be donated to the clan in exchange for a suitable offensive treasure!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

As for the Nether Sea Avatar, it has always been responsible for the expansion of the Blood Sea within the Divine Kingdom, so there is no need for it to carry any treasures for the time being.

Moreover, as his strength grew, Yang Wu's need for offensive treasures also increased.

Some powerful cosmic overlords use at least a high-grade treasure weapon, and even the top cosmic overlords use top-grade treasure weapons.

As for Yang Wu? All he's using so far is the Heaven-Asking Spear that was once bestowed upon him by the Mountain-Sitting Guest, and it's a powerful offensive weapon shared by several of his clones. If he encounters any special circumstances, he'll definitely be stretched thin!

With this in mind, Yang Wu immediately left the Divine Kingdom, taking the Sun God Armor that his Yan God Clan clone had replaced with with him, and headed to the Initial Universe to exchange for a more suitable supreme treasure.

……

In front of a side hall within the city lord's mansion in Chaos City.

hum...

The bronze gate slowly opened, and Yang Wu stepped inside. Then the bronze gate closed again.

Let's begin!

Yang Wu waved his hand.

Wow!

Suddenly, a golden suit of armor appeared out of thin air in mid-air, and then floated gracefully towards the stone slab in the center of the side hall. Countless cyan rays of light instantly rose up and enveloped the golden armor.

"A common treasure armor, offering it to the clan will grant 10.8 treasure points. Yang Wu, are you willing to offer this treasure to the clan?" A moment later, a gentle voice rang out.

"10.8 Treasure Points?" Yang Wu was slightly taken aback.

He originally exchanged for the Sun God Armor for 12 Treasure Points, and this exchange alone will result in a loss of 1.2 Treasure Points.

"1.2 Treasure Points are enough to exchange for even the most basic Treasure Weapon. No wonder some powerful individuals would rather create new secret techniques than exchange the Treasures they acquire for a Treasure Weapon that suits their own secret technique!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

Even for the strong, obtaining a supreme treasure still requires sufficient opportunity; time, on the other hand, is not valuable.

Therefore, if a skilled swordsman were to obtain a more powerful spear treasure by chance, his first thought would certainly not be to exchange it for a suitable battle sword treasure, but rather to spend some time improving his own secret techniques.

After all, once you reach the level of a Cosmic Venerable, the requirements for weapons are not too high when it comes to using combat techniques; you only need to spend a little time improving them.

However, Yang Wu was also very clear in his heart that the reason why the clan's treasure trove was like this was because of the meaning of "contribution".

The powerful individuals contribute their unwanted treasures to their clans at slightly lower prices, and the clans then offer them to other powerful individuals at normal prices, or even resell them at a premium to powerful individuals from other races within the Hong Alliance. This back-and-forth exchange allows the clans to earn a considerable profit, and these treasures and resources are used to nurture the clans' still-developing geniuses!

Therefore, Yang Wu did not hesitate for too long and immediately agreed to contribute the Sun God Armor.

Next, Yang Wu began to check the prices of high-grade treasure weapons.

At this time, there are only seven high-grade treasure spears in the human race's treasury, which require between 9 and 35 treasure points, with the cheapest costing 9 treasure points.

Based on the Treasure Points he had, Yang Wu quickly selected an ancient, fiery red spear worth 20 Treasure Points.

The Flame Spear is a high-grade treasure weapon with both fire and air attributes. It requires 20 treasure points to obtain.

The Flaming Spear's design was extremely similar to the Overlord Spear that Yang Wu had used in his early days, which naturally attracted Yang Wu's attention.

Yang Wu immediately said, "Open the detailed information about the Flame Gun."

Wow!

An image immediately appeared on the screen in mid-air: in the vast starry sky, an ancient spear of boundless power pierced through the air, indestructible and overwhelming, leaving flames swirling and space shattering wherever it passed.

"The Flaming Spear is a purely offensive treasure with extremely strong piercing capabilities. As long as the user is powerful enough, even a top-tier treasure can be destroyed in one strike!" A gentle voice rang in Yang Wu's ears.

Hearing the other party's introduction, Yang Wu's face showed a satisfied expression.

He had relied on the astonishing power of the Heaven-Asking Spear to successfully kill the Crimson Rainbow King, who possessed unparalleled strength at the King level. But if he had been wielding this Blazing Flame Spear, even the Azure Mantis King and the Thorn King would likely have perished.

"This Flaming Spear should be enough for me for now. I can exchange it for a more powerful weapon once I acquire more treasures!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

Although most top cosmic overlords use top-tier treasure weapons, Yang Wu currently has too few resources to exchange for one.

Even this Flaming Spear requires as many as 20 Treasure Points. After Yang Wu exchanged all the treasures, he only had less than 9 Treasure Points left. Even with the reward from contributing the Sun God Armor, he was still short.

In the end, Yang Wu donated the set treasure "Devouring Heaven and Earth Claw" that he obtained after killing the Barking King, and obtained 1200 treasure points, which barely made up enough treasure points to exchange for the Flaming Spear.

……

"The Flaming Spear requires 20 Treasure Points to acquire. Yang Wu, are you sure you want to acquire it?"

"I'll trade!" Yang Wu said without any hesitation.

Rumble!

The stone disc slowly cracked open, and then a fiery red, ancient spear flew out from the deep passage. The spear was also engraved with extremely complex law runes.

With a wave of his hand, Yang Wu received the ancient-looking spear.

"I've got this high-grade treasure weapon!" Yang Wu imprinted his life mark on it, feeling the numerous messages entering his mind.

"From now on, the Flaming Spear and the Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor will be used by my avatar from the Flame God Clan; they are now my strongest fighting force!"

"As for the Heaven-Asking Spear, leave it with Tingni's clone. The main body of the Earthling has been too prominent lately; it's best for him to stay in the human territory and cultivate in seclusion!"

Yang Wu pondered this in his heart.

……

Everything is peaceful in the universe now. Even the primordial star would take nearly 100,000 years to open. Yang Wu would naturally not take the initiative to expose himself to assassination by the alien race.

For Yang Wu, time is always on his side. If there are no special circumstances, he can wait until he is stronger before giving the alien races a big surprise.

Thus, after obtaining two precious treasures, Yang Wu's various clones each performed their duties and then entered into a long period of cultivation.

Time keeps passing.

One hundred years, two hundred years, three hundred years...

In the blink of an eye, more than two thousand years have passed.

……

In a manor in the core region of the Giant Axe Universe, Yang Wu slowly opened his eyes in a quiet room.

Although humanity currently has only one strongest being in the universe, it possesses two small universes as sacred grounds, just like the demon race.

Within the human race, anyone who joins one of the five major powers and becomes a King-level Immortal can permanently obtain permanent residency in the Initial Universe and the Giant Axe Universe.

Since breaking through to the Universe Venerable realm, Yang Wu's simulation time interval has increased again, becoming ten times that of the Immortal stage, reaching an astonishing 72,000 years.

Even with the Time Palace's hundredfold acceleration, such a long time interval still requires more than seven hundred years to refresh once.

Therefore, in order to shorten the simulation interval, Yang Wu directly applied for the right to reside in the Giant Axe Universe and used a divine power clone to bring the Time Palace to the small universe of the strongest Giant Axe user for cultivation.

In fact, among the two holy lands of humanity, although the flow of time is much faster in the small universe of the strongest being of the Giant Axe, the human race's strongmen prefer to live in the initial universe, and even the strongmen of the Giant Axe Arena are the same.

After all, for these super beings with eternal lifespans, the passage of time is nothing. What is truly precious is the Chaos Stele within Chaos City and the manifest laws governing the universe in the outside world.

However, for Yang Wu, the Giant Axe Universe, where the flow of time is ten times that of the original universe, is naturally an extremely precious place for cultivation.

Moreover, with the existence of the Blood Sea clone, Yang Wu doesn't need to worry too much about the resource consumption required to maintain the operation of the Time Palace for the time being.

I could have written more, but today I was rejected by a girl I thought was a good match because I didn't feel we were a good fit. I'm feeling down.

I'd love any suggestions! Please don't suggest finding someone better next time. If I really miss out on this girl, you'll all be happy, and I'll have to temporarily stop going on blind dates. But I really don't want to miss out!!
