Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 474 The Lord of the Northern Prison Appears

"It's time for the Lord of the Northern Prison to reappear!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

For Yang Wu, having the Lord of the Northern Prison reappear in the primordial universe at this time was indeed a good choice.

Firstly, Yang Wu's human form on Earth has reaped considerable rewards on the Primal Star over the past hundred years, which has already attracted the attention of many powerful individuals. Although with Yang Wu's strength, he doesn't need to care about these things at all, it's naturally best to avoid them if possible.

Secondly, the information Yang Wu obtained from the simulation experience was not very accurate. Many times, he only knew that a certain powerful person had obtained a precious treasure on a certain primordial star.

To obtain accurate information, one needs to find the powerful individual who has acquired the treasure at a specific time.

The powerful individuals who can obtain these precious treasures are mostly top-tier cosmic overlords and cosmic masters. Among these individuals, some are powerful figures from forces closely related to the human race. Given Yang Wu's current strength and status, it is naturally inappropriate for him to try and seize them from them.

However, if he appeared as the Lord of the Northern Prison, he would no longer have such concerns.

Back when Zuo Shan Ke was impersonating the Lord of the Northern Prison, he angered countless forces, large and small, in the primordial universe. It was impossible for any of the powerful figures on the primordial star to have any close relationship with the Lord of the Northern Prison.

Yang Wu could use this identity to seize any powerful figure from any force and obtain precious treasures without worrying about the other party transferring their anger to the human race.

And, most importantly...

Over the course of more than a hundred years, Yang Wu also clearly felt the gap between peak treasures.

The Dark Gold Soul-Devouring Spear used by Yang Wu, the supreme treasure armor borrowed from the human race's treasury, and even the Ruyi Aurora Mirror obtained from the demon race...

These supreme treasures are undeniably powerful, but compared to the Inverted Blood Spear and Eight Treasures Exquisite Armor that the Mountain-Sitting Guest crafted for him, they are nothing!

Even the Ruyi Aurora Mirror, a supreme treasure of its kind, cannot compare to it in terms of value.

"Once I've accumulated enough resources, I can definitely ask Master Zuoshanke to custom-make all sorts of ultimate treasures for me!"

Yang Wu thought to himself, "But this means I'll have to personally kill ten Universe Lords. Using my status to commit massacres will definitely incite public wrath!"

Yang Wu is now already at the level of the Lord of the Universe, so the conditions given by the Mountain Guest for refining the ultimate treasure are naturally different from those given to Luo Feng during his Venerable period in the original work.

When Luo Feng was at the Universe Venerable realm, he only needed to kill ten top Universe Overlords or one Universe Lord to request the Mountain-Sitting Guest to refine a supreme treasure for him.

However, Yang Wu would need to kill ten Universe Lords to achieve this condition!

However, since Yang Wu became the Lord of the Universe, he killed a Lord of the Universe from the First Universe Reincarnation Era in the Universe Sea. Moreover, the other party had an avatar, so it naturally doesn't count in the eyes of the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

Thinking of this, Yang Wu immediately greeted his teacher, the Lord of Dragon Journey, and then his consciousness returned to reality, beginning to make his Earthling self leave the original planet and return to the territory of humanity.

……

After returning to human territory, Yang Wu went directly back to his divine kingdom.

The waves surged to the sky, and above the endless dark sea, a divine temple shrouded in endless dark light floated. Yang Wu stood in front of the temple, with a Yan God Clan avatar standing more than 90,000 kilometers tall beside him.

hum!

Several treasures flew out of Yang Wu's hand and flew directly towards the Yan God Clan clone.

"From this moment forward, let the Flame God Clan avatar, assuming the identity of the Lord of the Northern Prison, roam freely on that primordial star!"

Yang Wu thought to himself, "Although the many treasures on my Earthling body are already known to other powerful figures, with the existence of the 'Northern Prisoner Crystal,' as long as they aren't domain-level treasures, I have no fear of them being discovered by other powerful figures!"

As a special treasure crafted by the Mountain-Sitting Guest, the 'Northern Prisoner Crystal' possesses extremely powerful concealment capabilities. It can completely alter Yang Wu's life aura and the appearance of the treasure without affecting his own strength.

"As for secret techniques, I can no longer use many of the secret techniques used by the Earthling's main body and Tingni's clone!"

Fortunately, Yang Wu had cultivated for countless years in the simulation experience. He had already created several of the strongest secret techniques by fusing with the Lord of the Universe. Even if he had to give up some of the ones he had already used, he still had many options.

"Next, we'll see how the various forces in the primordial universe deal with me, the Lord of the Northern Prison!" A smile involuntarily appeared on Yang Wu's face.

Yang Wu had no worries about the identity of the Lord of the Northern Prison, after all, he was not the Yan Emperor of the past.

In the original novel, when Luo Feng used his identity as the Lord of the Blood Cloud Palace, he simply blocked the Star River Lord's ultimate move, which caused many forces to abandon their actions against him.

If Yang Wu were to unleash his full power now, he might even be able to suppress the Lord of the Star River, and naturally he wouldn't encounter any danger.

Immediately, the aura of the Yan God Clan clone changed, and it instantly left through the divine kingdom's teleportation!

……

On the original planet number 04129, above a vast forest.

A powerful figure clad in dark armor, with a curved horn on his head and a chilling mask, was slowly flying above the forest.

This figure, exuding overwhelming pressure, was none other than the Lord of the Northern Prison, disguised as an avatar of the Flame God Clan.

No, it should be said that this is already the true Lord of the Northern Prison, because the Yan God Clan clone carries everything that the Lord of the Northern Prison possesses!

"This time, my target is a top-tier treasure armor that will be born in ten days!" Yang Wu landed directly in the forest below and began to wait silently.

In another simulation, ten days later, a top-tier treasure armor will be born in this region. At that time, a cosmic lord from the Northern Frontier Alliance happened to appear on this primordial star, so he easily obtained this precious treasure.

"The Lord of the Northern Frontier Alliance, the Lord of the Seas? I wonder if he'll even appear on this primordial planet this time?"

Yang Wu thought to himself, "If it appears, that would be interesting!"

Among the many pieces of information Yang Wu obtained, there were some grudges between the Lord of the Overturning Sea and the Lord of the Northern Prison of the Northern Frontier Alliance, and the most important point was that the Lord of the Overturning Sea did not have a clone!

Just as Yang Wu was patiently awaiting the birth of the treasure...

A towering figure emerged from a vortex passage. He possessed an incredibly robust physique, quite similar to a human, except for six thick arms and three heads of different shapes. Each head had two eerie blue curved horns and was surrounded by swirling water vapor, making him appear as if he were shrouded in mist.

This person is none other than the Lord of Overturning the Seas, whose fame resounds throughout the universe.

hum!

After the Lord of the Overturning Seas appeared on this primordial star, he instantly released boundless pressure, which descended directly upon the entire primordial star.

This is a tactic often used by the Lord of the Universe when he was roaming the primordial planet: 'private the entire place'!

Generally speaking, as long as you don't encounter another universe master, the process of "booking out" the venue is naturally incredibly smooth.

There are over ten thousand primordial stars. The probability of one universe master encountering another is very low, unless a precious treasure is born and becomes known to other universe masters, in which case several or even more universe masters will gather on a primordial star.

"Oh no, it's the Lord of the Universe!"

"A cosmic being has actually come to this primordial planet?"

"May the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader protect us, please don't let it be one of those Universe Lords who don't even spare ordinary treasures!"

……

For a moment, the cosmic venerables from all sides of the vast universe on the entire primordial star were shocked, and then began to discuss among themselves.

The appearance of a cosmic ruler is enough to attract the attention of all powerful beings.

"Um?"

The Lord of the Overturning Seas stood in mid-air. While he was controlling space and time to explore his surroundings, he discovered an existence that surprised him greatly.

The familiar scent of life!

The familiar oppressive aura!

Familiar battle armor!

A familiar mask!

This caused a flash of anger and shock to appear in the eyes of the Lord of the Overturning Seas: "It's actually the Lord of the Northern Prison!"

"I can't believe he actually dared to show himself in space!"

Countless ages ago, the Lord of the Northern Prison caused quite a stir in the universe.

Judging solely from the timeline, the Lord of the Northern Prison appeared in two different periods.

When the Lord of the Northern Prison first rose to fame, he was truly the "enemy of the universe," a nightmare for billions of races in the universe!

The cosmic overlords who died at his hands were countless; even the cosmic lords had perished at his hands.

However, when the Lord of the Northern Prison appeared in the universe for the second time, he was in a rather disheveled state.

At that time, many forces in the primordial universe joined forces to trap the opponent in a secret realm and besieged him. They almost suppressed and killed him, but at the most critical moment, a mysterious powerhouse appeared and rescued the Lord of the Northern Prison.

The Lord of Overturning the Seas had participated in the siege of the Lord of the Northern Prison.

After that, the Lord of the Northern Prison disappeared from the universe once again!

"I've discovered the Lord of the Northern Prison!"

"The Lord of the Northern Prison is currently on Primordial Star No. 04129!" Upon discovering Yang Wu, the Lord of the Overturning Seas immediately relayed the message to many high-ranking members of the Northern Frontier Alliance.

……

In the distant territory of the "Liulan Clan," within a grand hall shrouded in endless starlight, three divine beings were conversing.

These three are the actual leaders of the Northern Frontier Alliance: the Lord of the Star River, the Lord of the Black Lotus, and the Lord of the Clouds.

As for the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance, he was merely a retainer whom the Northern Frontier Alliance had paid an astonishing price to invite, and he usually did not concern himself with the various trivial matters of the Northern Frontier Alliance.

"Black Lotus, I heard that you encountered Lord Peng Gong of the human race when you were fighting for a supreme treasure half a month ago?" Lord of the Star River asked.

"Indeed!" The Lord of the Black Lotus nodded and said, "The Lord of Peng Gong among the human race has always been quite low-key, but I never expected him to unleash such powerful strength!"

"In my opinion, within our Northern Frontier Alliance, only you, Lord of the Star River, are capable of suppressing Lord Peng Gong!"

The Star River Lord's divine body is extremely large, and coupled with its special characteristics, it can be said to be one of the most troublesome existences among the many fifth-order universe lords in the primordial universe!

"Although I can suppress Lord Peng, I have no confidence whatsoever against the Lord of Time!"

The Lord of the Star River said in a deep voice, "Moreover, the Chaos City Lord among the human race is hailed by the Purple Moon Ancestor as the universe lord most likely to become the next strongest being in my primordial universe. Even if his divine body is somewhat inferior to mine, he is still extremely troublesome!"

"The human race is truly blessed with extraordinary talent!" The Lord of the Black Lotus exclaimed in agreement. "First, there was the Primordial Ancestor, invincible throughout the universe; then came the strongest axe-wielder, the Lord of Chaos, the Lord of Time, and even the Lord of Peng Gong—none of them should be underestimated!"

"Lord Peng Gong?" Lord Liu Lan exclaimed from the side, "If I had the chance to meet him on the Primordial Star, I would definitely witness his strength!"

As for Lord Liulan, he was unwilling to provoke Lord Chaos City and Lord Time, but he did not pay much attention to Lord Peng Gong, who was quite low-key.

"Don't worry, the Primordial Star will remain open for a full thousand epochs, so there will be a chance to encounter them!"

Just then...

"Lord of the Star River, I have discovered the whereabouts of the Lord of the Northern Prison!"

"The Lord of the Northern Prison is currently on Primordial Star No. 04129."

An urgent message arrived, immediately shocking the three Star Lords who were talking.

"The Lord of the Northern Prison?" The three Star River Lords were all shocked.

"That madman actually came out?" The Black Lotus Lord's face showed a hint of surprise. "I never expected that after endless years, news of the Northern Prison Lord would resurface!"

"Hmph, that madman!" A hint of anger flashed across the Lord of Liulan's face. One of his Liulan clan's cosmic overlords had once been killed by the Lord of the Northern Prison: "He disappeared for countless years, and now he finally couldn't stand the loneliness and has reappeared in the universe!"

"Moreover, on that primordial planet, even the strongest beings in the universe would find it difficult to kill him, so he certainly picked a good time!"

"Liu Lan, what do you plan to do?" the Lord of the Black Lotus asked.

"Of course, we should spread the news widely, letting all the major powers in the universe know!"

Lord Liulan said in a deep voice, "The Northern Prison Lord's ability to survive and escape is extremely strong, and there's also the mysterious expert who rescued him back then. It will be very difficult for our Northern Frontier Alliance alone to kill him!"

"Furthermore, if the Lord of the Northern Prison escapes, our Northern Frontier Alliance will inevitably face his furious retaliation. He is a public enemy of the universe; if all the forces in the universe join forces, the risk on our Northern Frontier Alliance will be much less!"

"I'll lead the Northern Frontier Alliance this time!"

The Lord of the Star River said in a deep voice, "Last time, the appearance of that mysterious expert allowed the Lord of the Northern Prison to escape. This time, I've brought the 'Star River Realm,' so even if that mysterious expert reappears, I'm confident I can capture the Lord of the Northern Prison!"

"Alright, with Xinghe's help, our Northern Frontier Alliance has done a great job!"

soon……

The news that the Lord of the Northern Prison had appeared on Primordial Star No. 04129 was actively spread to various forces in the Primordial Universe by the Northern Frontier Alliance.

In an instant, the Hongmeng Alliance, the Zerg Alliance, the Mechanical Alliance, the Starry Sky Beast Alliance, the Prison Alliance, the Crystal Alliance, the Northern Frontier Alliance, the Ancestral God Cult... all the forces in the primordial universe were shaken.

Besides the nine super powers, some weaker powers also knew about this news.

However, these forces dare not directly target the Lord of the Northern Prison, otherwise they would be in trouble once the Lord of the Northern Prison is freed!
