Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 114 Acknowledgment of the Origin Law and Mount Tongtian

In a cave on a cliff in the Abyss of Purgatory, an incomparably powerful aura of law descended instantly, enveloping Zhou Yang, who was wearing the purple-red Cloud-Piercing Armor.

Silver runes swirled around, and streaks of silver light darted and radiated in all directions. For a moment, the entire cave was dazzlingly bright, and the intense fluctuations of the primordial laws were even more unsettling.

"Rumble~~~" The surrounding space trembled slightly.

A wisp of silver mist seemed to drift in, traversing through space.

"Hiss~~"

Silver mist slowly swirled above Zhou Yang's head, then ignored the physical barrier and slowly seeped into Zhou Yang's sea of ​​consciousness.

At the center of his consciousness, a majestic, three-story glazed pagoda stood tall and seemingly endless.

Inside this three-tiered glazed pagoda, a vast and magnificent vortex star system slowly rotates and floats.

At the core of this spiral galaxy is a massive black hole, around which extend eight nebulous spiral arms, each containing a smaller black hole.

Around each of the small black holes, numerous fragments of dazzling stars are scattered, making the entire vortex galaxy look magnificent and beautiful.

"Hoo hoo~~"

The silver mist completely ignored the existence of the Void Tower and instantly appeared in this world.

Then, this wisp of silver mist slowly drifted closer to the central black hole of the vortex galaxy.

"Hiss~~"

The silvery-white mist was instantly absorbed by the central black hole, and strands of silver threads spread out, dyeing the entire vortex galaxy with a silver hue.

As the silver mist merged in, the speed at which the Meteor Tear imprinted on the vast mass of insights deep within his sea of ​​consciousness was instantly increased.

At the same time, a silver nebula-like mark slowly appeared between Zhou Yang's eyebrows.

Not only the main body, but also the foreheads of each clone simultaneously displayed silver nebula marks.

"The fundamental laws of space are acknowledged!"

Zhou Yang slowly opened his eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up.

At that moment, he vaguely felt a soul-stirring call.

That feeling was incredibly intimate, like parents calling out to their children.

Zhou Yang did not resist, and half of his consciousness instantly drifted away with the call.

"Whoosh~"

Time flies by, and endless space and time are left behind in an instant.

The next second, Zhou Yang's consciousness appeared above the silver ocean!

"Rumble~~~"

A silvery ocean, boundless and endless.

The waves surged and undulated, stirring up wisps of thick, silvery mist.

This is the ocean of the fundamental laws of space, the origin of the 'space laws' of the entire primordial universe!

Having been away from Chaos City for nearly fifty years, he has been constantly practicing the "Three Souls Nine Refinements," and his soul power has become incredibly strong.

Furthermore, the mysterious insights he received from the Meteor Tear made understanding the laws of space as easy as solving a math problem by following the answer key.

Others find their cultivation increasingly difficult as they progress, with each challenge requiring more time and resulting in a slower rate of improvement.

However, for him, the path of cultivation seemed to have no difficulties, and the road was smooth all the way.

In fact, as time went on, his improvement rate actually accelerated!

Over the past fifty years, his understanding of the laws of space has reached an extremely profound level.

At this very moment, he actually gained the recognition of the fundamental laws of space and was able to enter the place of the origin of the laws of space!

His consciousness drifted above the ocean of fundamental spatial laws, clearly capturing the mysteries of these laws.

This caused his comprehension speed of the fundamental laws of space to increase by more than a hundred times!

"Amazing, incredibly amazing!"

Zhou Yang's consciousness was rejoicing and encouraging.

"Being acknowledged by the fundamental laws means that my spatial comprehension has long met the requirements for breaking through to the realm lord level."

"Then there's no need to waste time on a cosmic level!"

Virtual Universe, a separate, self-contained dimensional world.

The space is a vast expanse of land, and on this vast expanse of land stand three majestic mountains, each one taller than the last!

On the mountainside of the three high mountains, there are two characters emitting golden light: Heaven and Earth, Primordial Beginning, and Primordial Beginning! Among them, the Primordial Heaven-Reaching Mountain is the most majestic and tall!

"call!"

Zhou Yang, carrying a dark green, ancient-looking whip, appeared instantly in this dimension.

He looked at the most majestic of the three mountains, the ancient Tongtian Mountain, and his eyes blazed with intense passion.

"I've arrived—the ultimate benchmark for measuring the endless geniuses of the human race!"

Whoosh!

His figure transformed into a streak of light, flying directly towards the primordial Tongtian Mountain.

The Primordial Tongtian Mountain, towering thousands of miles high, is majestic and mysterious, and is the highest mountain in this dimension of space specially opened up by the virtual universe.

When Zhou Yang appeared, the three gatekeepers at the foot of the mountain were instantly awakened.

The three gatekeepers were a burly minotaur wielding a terrifying giant axe, a lean ape-man wearing silver-white armor and carrying a black bamboo pole on his back, and a strange woman with a snake tail and a human body wrapped in a semi-transparent veil.

The three represent the three most mainstream cultivation paths: martial artist, mental energy master, and mental energy illusionist.

"Huh? Prince Zhou Yang of the Primal Secret Realm? You've only been with the Virtual Universe Company for a hundred years and you're already challenging the Primal Tongtian Mountain?"

The minotaur wielding a giant axe spoke in a deep, gruff voice.

Zhou Yang smiled upon hearing this:

"What, can't newcomers challenge the Primal Tongtian Mountain?"

"Haha, that's possible."

The minotaur laughed heartily:

"However, to avoid Your Highness Zhou Yang being too severely discouraged, I advise you to cultivate for a longer period before attempting the challenge!"

"I think you gatekeepers are trying to slack off. Who sends people back like that?"

Zhou Yang chuckled and made a joke.

"Haha, since His Highness Zhou Yang insists, then we'll play along!"

Before the minotaur's laughter had even subsided, he instantly rushed in front of Zhou Yang.

At the same time, the terrifying giant axe had already been raised, instantly transforming into a yellowish-brown axe blade.

chi chi~~

Where the axe blade passes, it leaves marks in the space.

"hey-hey!"

The lean ape-man let out a strange laugh, and the black bamboo pole behind him suddenly flew out, stretching into nine sections. Countless threads flowed and connected between each section, forming a weapon that resembled a nine-section whip!

This is the third-tier psychic weapon – the 'Arc Serpent'.

Whoosh!

The hazy phantom darted out instantly, arriving before the minotaur's giant axe, like a venomous snake tearing at Zhou Yang.

At the same time, the snake woman let out a soft snort, her eyes flashed with purple light, and an invisible psychic force instantly entered Zhou Yang's mind.

However, Zhou Yang remained calm in the face of the combined attack of the three gatekeepers.

Of the three attacks, the snake woman's telekinetic attack was the fastest, entering Zhou Yang's sea of ​​consciousness almost instantly.

Within her sea of ​​consciousness, the three-tiered pagoda trembled slightly, and the snake woman's illusionary attack, which she was so proud of, instantly crumbled.

The next second, an endless world of sword light erupted.

A moment later, the world of sword light dissipated, and the figures of the three gatekeepers also disappeared.

"Whoosh!"

Without stopping, Zhou Yang continued rushing towards the mountainside.

This level also features the same trio of minotaurs, apes, and snake women, but their strength far surpasses that of the three at the foot of the mountain.

In this level, Zhou Yang directly unleashed the seventh level of the Origin Divine Weapon!

A massive, ancient whip enveloped in endless blue and silver energy crashed down, instantly obliterating the three of them.

Next came the challenge at the mountaintop, where the guardian of this challenge put considerable pressure on Zhou Yang.

Ultimately, relying on his spatial perception comparable to that of a world lord-level genius and his abnormally strong soul resilience, he forcibly unleashed the eighth level of the Origin Divine Weapon.

A gigantic phantom of an ancient tree, seemingly connecting heaven and earth, crashed down, its 'branches' swaying wildly, as if the entire space had been shattered.

Once the ancient tree's illusory shadow dissipated, only Zhou Yang's solitary figure remained atop the towering mountain, stretching for thousands of miles.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~~"

The next second, emails were automatically distributed to the high-ranking human players.
