Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

The Tomb Boat, a quiet room.

The Thunder-Clad Demon God was sitting cross-legged in meditation, waiting for the end of this trial, waiting for all the powerful members of the Divine Eye Clan to fall according to his plan.

In fact, with Yang Wu's presence, he could have asked Duan Donghe to kill all the Divine Eye Clan members right now.

But the Demon God of Thunder Robes abandoned this plan because he wanted to make those people of the Divine Eye Clan feel true despair.

Just then, a blurry figure suddenly appeared in front of the Thunder God, it was Duan Donghe who had been waiting for a long time but had not seen Yang Wu.

"Lord Duan Donghe!" Upon seeing Duan Donghe appear, the Thunder-Clad Demon God immediately stood up and greeted him with utmost respect.

"Lei Yi!" Duan Donghe looked at the Lei Yi Demon God and said in a deep voice, "The Lord of Time you spoke of has not yet come here to receive his inheritance. Do you know why?"

"What?"

Upon hearing Duan Donghe's words, the Thunder-Clad Demon God couldn't help but be startled.

He had not been in contact with the outside world recently, so he was unaware of the news that other forces in the Cosmic Sea were blocking the human race's powerful members outside the Tomb Ship.

In the eyes of the Thunder God, the inheritance of the Broken East River was so precious that there was no second one like it in the entire universe. How could the Lord of Time not come to accept the inheritance?

"My lord, please calm your anger!" Thunder-Clad Demon God hurriedly said, "I will go and investigate immediately!"

After speaking, the Thunder God's divine power avatar, which resided in the miniature universe, immediately began contacting some friends to gather information.

Despite being the strongest being in the universe, Thunder God in his armor, though only moderately powerful, still has several close friends.

At this time, almost all the forces from all sides of the Cosmic Sea had gathered outside the Tomb Ship, so the Thunder-Clad Demon God quickly learned that everyone had joined forces to prevent many powerful members of the human race from entering the Tomb Ship.

"I never imagined that the Time Lord's talent would instill such fear in these people!"

Upon receiving the news, the Thunder-Clad Demon God couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Of course, if I hadn't tried it, I probably would have ended up like these people!"

"However, this is an opportunity for me!"

Upon realizing this, the Thunder-Clad Demon God immediately reported respectfully to Duan Donghe in front of him: "Lord Duan Donghe, at this moment, the powerful figures from all sides of the Cosmic Sea have gathered together. Led by several of the strongest members of the Divine Eye Clan, they are preventing the powerful members of the human race, including the Time Lord, from coming here to receive the inheritance outside the Tomb Ship."

"hateful!"

Upon hearing Lei Yi Demon God's words, Duan Donghe's face immediately showed a hint of anger: "A bunch of useless trash, actually planning to stop a true human genius from receiving the inheritance?"

Upon hearing this, Lei Yi Demon God also showed a hint of embarrassment.

After all, the "waste" mentioned at the mouth of the Duan Dong River probably includes him as well.

However, if we really compare them to the Lord of Time, the other powerful beings in the Cosmic Sea are indeed far inferior, so it's no wonder that Duan Donghe made such a comment.

"Lord Duan Donghe!"

The Thunder-Clad Demon God respectfully said, "Those people are all led by several of the strongest beings in the universe from the Divine Eye Clan. Why don't you take action, sir, and kill all the Divine Eye Clan powerhouses outside the Tomb Ship? That way, naturally no one will dare to stop the Lord of Time from entering the Tomb Ship!"

"Hmph!" Duan Donghe snorted coldly, then said, "I'll handle this myself. You can continue to wait here!"

If Duan Donghe is able to kill the many powerful figures outside the Tomb Ship, he will naturally want to establish his authority.

But he had already perished, and what remained was merely a phantom projection. This Tomb Ship had only undergone some modifications; it could unleash considerable power within, but it was utterly powerless against the other powerful beings outside the Tomb Ship.

Upon realizing this, Duan Donghe's figure vanished instantly.

……

At the end of the corridor between life and death.

At this moment, the powerful figures from all sides are constantly comprehending the Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation, while some powerful figures are still besieging Luo Feng, who is hiding inside the Star Tower.

But just then...

"Ding! Dong!"

A strange voice resounded in the minds of all the candidates.

All the candidates present looked astonished, then looked up at the center, where countless rays of light condensed into a figure in mid-air, which was none other than the blue-haired man, Duan Donghe.

Looking down, Duan Donghe said in a deep voice, "I've heard that there's a powerful figure outside named the Lord of Time, but he's been blocked outside the Tomb Ship by the powerful figures from your various factions!"

Wow!

Below, the densely packed powerful figures from various factions were in an uproar.

Everyone looked at Duan Donghe, who was suspended in the void, and were extremely shocked.

Why would Duan Donghe mention the Lord of Time?

Could it be that they want the Lord of Time to receive the inheritance?

"snort!"

Looking down at the powerful figures of various races, Duan Donghe coldly stated, "The inheritance of my Duan Donghe lineage naturally requires the most outstanding inheritor. If anyone continues to obstruct other candidates who wish to receive the inheritance outside the Tomb Ship, the qualifications of all powerful members of their clan to receive the inheritance will be revoked, and they will perish directly inside this Tomb Ship!"

These words were spoken.

The powerful figures from all races gathered in the Corridor of Life and Death were all shocked, but even if they gritted their teeth, there was nothing they could do.

With Duan Donghe saying this, the powerful figures from various races outside the Tomb Ship naturally dared not continue to obstruct the human race's powerful members.

After all, even if the powerful figures of various races inside the Tomb Ship are not afraid of death, the inheritance of the Broken East River is something they cannot give up.

Even if the Lord of Time really enters the Tomb Ship, they might still have a glimmer of hope. But if they go against the Broken East River, they will truly be cut off from the inheritance!

……

Outside the Tomb Ship, the other powerful figures all fell silent after learning the news.

They all knew the importance of the Broken East River's inheritance, and they also knew of Yang Wu's terrifying talent, which is why they joined forces to keep the human race out.

Unexpectedly, Duan Donghe's single sentence rendered all their efforts futile.

It's not that some powerful figures haven't considered having those forces that can't accept the inheritance stop Yang Wu, but those forces simply can't accept the inheritance, so how could they be used as pawns by other forces?

Therefore, the various forces in the cosmic sea had no choice but to abandon their blockade of the human race.

The strongest of the giant axe, who had received the news from Luo Feng, immediately sent Peng Gongzhi and the others into the Tomb Ship.

Even some powerful figures from smaller factions who were originally blocked outside the Tomb Ship were able to enter the Tomb Ship as a result.

To the surprise of many powerful figures from Duan Donghe and the Cosmic Sea, even though no one was stopping them, the Time Lord of the human race still did not appear inside the Tomb Ship.

"What's going on? Could it be that the Lord of Time has been held up by something?"

"How is that possible? The Lord of Time was the ruler of the universe, possessing several avatars. Even if one avatar was held up by other matters, the others could still receive the inheritance!"

"In my opinion, the Lord of Time probably felt that accepting this inheritance would be mortally dangerous, so he dared not come!"

"Do you know what you're saying? If even the Lord of Time faces danger when accepting the inheritance, then the nearly 100,000 candidates within the Tomb Ship are likely to perish!"

For a time, powerful figures from various factions in the Cosmic Sea began to speculate about the reason why Yang Wu had not come to receive the inheritance.

However, all parties involved are naturally happy with the current outcome.

Now they only hope that the Time Lord can be held back for a longer time. If they can wait until the inheritance of Duan Donghe is accepted, that would be the best outcome.

……

In the vast cosmic sea, shrouded by endless chaotic currents, lies the Snowstorm Domain of Beihua.

Amidst the endless chaotic currents of air, a majestic palace floated. And the master of that palace was none other than the most mysterious and powerful being in the universe, the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

It should be noted that at this moment, all forces in the cosmic sea had gathered outside the tomb ship. Even some powerful individuals who did not intend to enter it to receive the inheritance had gone to join in the fun.

But the mountain dweller remained in his palace.

The appearance of the Duan Donghe inheritance seemed to have no effect on him whatsoever.

Inside the majestic hall, a powerful snake-man with a snake tail and human body stood respectfully before the Mountain Guest; he was none other than his eldest disciple, 'Puti'.

"Haha, Puti, I bet you're also curious about the lineage of the Broken East River!"

The majestic voice of the hermit echoed within the hall: "If you're interested, why not give it a try!"

Upon hearing this, Puti respectfully replied, "I have not yet fully grasped the teachings of my teacher, so why should I go to such lengths to seize the inheritance of the Duan Donghe lineage?"

In fact, Puti also longed for the inheritance of the Broken East River.

But he also knew very well that with his strength and talent, he simply could not succeed in obtaining the inheritance.

Therefore, it's better to continue building goodwill with Master Zuoshanke. After all, Master Zuoshanke is a super treasure-refining master who can refine the most powerful treasures. If you can help him refine a most powerful treasure in the future, his strength will definitely be greatly improved.

"Yes, the legacy of the Broken East River..." The mountain dweller sighed inwardly.

"Speaking of which, the Duan Donghe lineage once produced a Jueyi God-King, which can be considered a peak lineage!"

"At its peak, the Wu Kingdom even surpassed my Jin Kingdom, and they were extremely skilled at crafting mechanical artifacts! Most of the descendants of the Duan Donghe lineage hold very high positions within Wu, so their lineage likely contains information on crafting numerous mechanical artifacts. I wonder how their artifact crafting techniques compare to mine?"

"teacher!"

Just then, Puti continued respectfully, "That Broken East River inheritance should be of some use to Third Junior Brother, right? But as far as I know, Third Junior Brother did not go to that Tomb Ship!"

"yes!"

The mountain hermit's gaze pierced through the palace gates, seemingly passing through endless chaotic currents, and looked towards the Liuchong Mountain region. He murmured to himself, "My disciple has indeed been missing for quite some time!"

It should be noted that more than a thousand years ago, the Mountain Hermit had already successfully refined the special treasure that Yang Wu had requested.

Unexpectedly, when the Mountain Guest tried to contact his disciple, he couldn't find him at all!

Yes, we can't find anyone!

It should be noted that Zuo Shan Ke, as a reincarnated god-king skilled in crafting magical artifacts, could create communication treasures with astonishing effects even if he crafted them casually.

Even between the primordial universe and the cosmic sea, real-time communication was possible.

What the mountain dweller didn't expect was that his connection to the communication token on Yang Wu's body completely disappeared, as if the token had never existed at all.

"The last time that communication token appeared was inside Liuchong Mountain!" the Mountain Dweller thought to himself.

"Of the three forbidden lands in this cosmic sea, the Peak-Tilting Realm and the Cosmic Ship are merely slightly special!"

"Only that towering mountain, even I cannot fully see through it!"

"Yang Wu has been trapped in the Flowing Mountains for over two thousand years, and there's been no news of his other avatars either. Could it be that he's truly encountered some terrible danger?"

"I have devoted countless efforts to cultivating my disciple, and it was only with great difficulty that Yang Wu finally appeared. If something were to happen to him, wouldn't all my years of anticipation be in vain?"

"It's time to take a trip into the Liuchong Mountains!"

Thinking of this, the Mountain Dweller immediately gave Puti a word of advice and then disappeared.

……

The Northern Snowfield Domain is more than ten light-years away from the Mountain Retreat Residence.

Above a secluded, deep pool, the figure of the Mountain Hermit suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"Old friend, come out!" The mountain dweller sighed and pointed towards the endless abyss below.

Wow!

Suddenly, a huge whirlpool appeared in the endless deep pool below, and then a beam of azure light flew out from the huge whirlpool and landed directly in the hand of the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

It was an ancient, azure palace, with countless laws and secret patterns flowing across it. Even the faint aura it emitted was enough to make countless powerful people tremble.

Above the palace gate were two characters that exuded an astonishing aura. Although no one could recognize the characters, they all understood their meaning: the two characters were "Prince of Jin".

This azure palace is none other than the Jinwang Palace, the main weapon of the god-king level that brought a wisp of the remnant soul of the Mountain Guest to the primordial universe!

In the original story, the people who sat on the mountain basically never used the Jinwang Palace.

After all, with his strength, he didn't need the Jinwang Palace at all; he could roam freely throughout the universe.

In other words, when Luo Feng's small universe was facing being devoured by the World Beast, Zuo Shan Ke had planned to use the Jin Wang Palace to protect it. However, Luo Feng's small universe was extremely perfect, so Zuo Shan Ke's help was not needed.

However, now that the guest of the mountain is going to the Liuzhong Mountain, which he does not fully understand and which may be extremely dangerous, it is naturally the most appropriate thing to bring the Prince of Jin along.

After all, although the Mountain Guest's realm is high, he is still only the strongest in the universe, and he broke through through the path of laws.

In addition, with the targeting of the original will of the primordial universe, it would be very difficult to deal with any truly astonishing danger.

With the Jin Prince's Palace there, he was in an invincible position from the start!
