Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 149 Attack

Within the Time-Space Prison, Zhou Yang was rapidly advancing along a safe path where the forces of time and space collided and neutralized.

His previous gains in the 'Gunato' cave had made him secretly look forward to the next cave.

"I wonder how much we'll find in this 'Lord Shang' cave. It would be wonderful if we could find a valuable treasure."

He dreamed about it.

Suddenly, Zhou Yang, who was walking, seemed to sense something and turned his head to look in a certain direction.

Beneath the radiant glow of the collision and turbulence of spacetime forces, a nearly transparent wisp of mist drifted slowly.

The transparent mist twisted and churned, and a palm-sized cyan scale was gently 'spit out' from it.

A green light suddenly rippled around the scales, and beneath the hazy green light, an immense pressure spread out, instantly sweeping across millions of kilometers around.

"That's... teleportation to the Divine Kingdom!"

Zhou Yang's pupils contracted slightly, instinctively sensing that a huge crisis was approaching.

"King of Reincarnation!"

Before Zhou Yang could react, a cold voice entered his mind, and at the same time, a suppressed and terrifying attack came from the front!

A towering palace, thousands of meters high and shrouded in endless emerald light, suddenly appeared and swept through the air.

The palace moved at an astonishing speed, enveloping Zhou Yang almost in the blink of an eye.

The palace doors swung open with a deafening roar, and an extremely powerful force of suppression and absorption instantly descended upon Zhou Yang!

Under that powerful suppressive force, he felt as if his thoughts were about to stop, and he had no time to react at all.

His body was being pulled by that powerful suction force, and he was being pulled toward the majestic palace.

However, in the next moment, above the World Origin Pearl within his body, a small black tower trembled slightly, and a gentle yet powerful force rapidly spread through his body.

As this power surged, the suppressive and absorbing force that had enveloped the body and soul was gradually driven out of the body.

The feeling of mental stagnation quickly faded, and Zhou Yang's consciousness finally resumed functioning.

"Such terrifying power! It's definitely a powerful, even supreme, treasure of the sealing type! Who is it? Who is attacking me?"

Zhou Yang activated the Myriad Manifestations Tower with all his might to resist the suppressing and sucking force coming from the palace above, but his gaze was directed towards the location where the divine kingdom's teleportation light had just erupted.

A towering figure appeared in his line of sight; it was a humanoid fire giant nearly 12 kilometers tall.

He wore a strange, deep black armor, on which streaks of golden runes would occasionally light up, combining to form golden flame patterns.

Behind him followed a strange beast that was over 20 meters long, somewhat resembling a lion but covered in blue scales.

"Demon race, Heavenly Drive King!"

Upon seeing the enormous figure, Zhou Yang's pupils constricted slightly.

Among the hundreds of thousands of powerful kings in this fourth outer battlefield region, there are several incredibly terrifying beings.

They are already extremely powerful, and each of them controls one or even several powerful treasures. Their overall strength is extremely close to that of "invincible king"!

Such powerful individuals are extremely rare even among the top-tier clans, and those active in this extraterrestrial battlefield are even fewer.

And the Sky King in front of us is one of them.

The Sky King belongs to the demon race camp, but he is not a demon himself. Instead, he comes from a vassal race of the demon race called the "Tianling Clan".

From the day he began his cultivation, Tianqu Wang displayed exceptional talent. He rose from an ordinary planetary-level 'Qiling Clan' to a level close to becoming an invincible king, and his performance was even more astonishing than that of the geniuses of the 'Eighteen Royal Clans' of the demon race.

As a result, he was noticed by the higher-ups of the demon race, and a powerful cosmic venerable stepped forward to take him as a disciple.

Zhou Yang was clear about his own strength. Under normal circumstances, he could only be considered a decent peak King-level expert. Even in this spatial prison, where the power of the "Qiankun" secret technique was greatly enhanced, he was still only equivalent to the limit of the King-level.

Even if he used all his trump cards, he probably wouldn't be a match for a powerful figure like the Heavenly King, who is close to being invincible at the King level.

When the gap in strength is too large, external means become increasingly ineffective.

"Huh? It really is the Realm Lord!"

The Sky King, clad in black armor and resembling a fire giant, spoke, his voice like rolling thunder.

Just now, he manipulated the power of the palace's sealing to invade Zhou Yang's body and easily discovered the special life core that represented the identity of the realm lord.

"That power that just withstood the Jade Smoke Palace, was it a powerful treasure? A soul defense treasure? That's equivalent to an ordinary supreme treasure!"

The Sky Chaser King's voice revealed a deep sense of surprise as it looked down at Zhou Yang.

"For a Realm Lord to possess a soul defense treasure indicates that your status among the human race is extraordinary. Considering the timing of your appearance on the extraterrestrial battlefield, if I'm not mistaken, you are none other than Zhou Yang, the peerless genius who was taken as a personal disciple by the Chaos City Lord of the human race more than two thousand years ago, right?"

"To have grown to a level comparable to the limit of a king in less than three thousand years is truly terrifying. No wonder the clan was willing to lend me the Jade Smoke Palace."

Zhou Yang didn't expect that Tianqu Wang's analysis would actually reveal his identity, but he naturally couldn't just admit it.

He stared at the towering Sky Chaser King and sneered:

"Skyward King is a bit too arrogant. My human race's five top powers have cultivated billions of peerless geniuses. How many of them do you even know?"

"Hmph, still so stubborn. Once I seal your soul, I'll have my own way of uncovering your secrets!"

The Heavenly King, who resembled a giant of fire, snorted coldly and said no more.

He exerted all his power to control the Jade Smoke Palace, which pressed down from one side, and a powerful suction force, several times stronger than before, instantly descended upon Zhou Yang.

"So what if you have a powerful soul-defense treasure? Under the Azure Smoke Palace, you'll still be suppressed!"

The Sky Chaser King sneered inwardly, but his figure instantly rushed forward, and a huge palm swept out towards Zhou Yang, trying to slam him directly into the Jade Smoke Palace.

His enormous fiery hand was encased in a layer of black armored gauntlets, with golden flames constantly flickering in his palm. An explosive, destructive aura swept out, causing the surrounding space to tear apart and collapse.

"Wow, that armor and gauntlets are definitely top-tier treasures!"

Zhou Yang was already struggling to withstand the surging suction power of the Jade Smoke Palace, and his expression changed drastically when he felt the terrifying aura emanating from the giant hand!

He absolutely cannot block that palm strike!

Without hesitation, a small black tower flew out from his inner world and then instantly grew to nearly ten thousand feet tall!

Zhou Yang immediately slipped into the towering tower.

"Boom!"

The next second, the huge fiery hand covered with black armor gauntlets slammed heavily onto the nearly ten-thousand-foot-tall black pagoda.

The terrifying power emanating from his palm erupted instantly, sending the Myriad Pagoda flying backward.

"Bang!"

The Myriad Pagoda crashed heavily into the Azure Palace, which was gaping open, waiting to devour Zhou Yang. Both the black tower and the azure palace tumbled and flew off to one side.

"Stop! Stop! Stop!"

Zhou Yang exerted all his strength to control it, and managed to stabilize the Myriad Pagoda just before it was about to fall into the spacetime turbulence.

"Palace-type, this aura is supreme! A palace-type supreme treasure!"

But the moment the King of Exorcists saw the Tower of All Things appear, his expression instantly turned ugly.

"This human race really values ​​this King of Reincarnation, bestowing upon him a palace-like treasure. This is troublesome."

He originally thought that Zhou Yang was just a realm lord, and it would be good enough if he possessed a soul defense treasure. He believed that he could still suppress Zhou Yang with the Biyan Palace bestowed by his clan.

The other party unexpectedly pulled out a supreme treasure! And it was an extremely valuable palace-type supreme treasure!

With this treasure in hand, the task of suppressing the King of Reincarnation is no longer possible.

At this moment, a hazy mist of light writhed and drifted to the side of the Sky King, and a hoarse voice rang in the Sky King's mind.

"King of the Sky Chaser, I have reported the situation here. The master has arranged for King Zhenwu to come with a soul-type treasure. Please, King of the Sky Chaser, do your best to hold off this King of Reincarnation."
