Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 151 Dark Vortex

"King Zhenwu has arrived? He's quite fast."

Seeing the divine kingdom teleportation light illuminating his surroundings, the Sky King felt a slight joy.

Thus, my mission is complete; the rest is now up to King Zhenwu.

"Um?"

At that moment, his gaze suddenly froze—

No, where is the tower? Where did that huge, solid black tower in front of me go?

As if sensing something, he immediately looked to the side!

The black tower that should have been suppressed by the Jade Smoke Palace and the Flame Light Realm was now appearing in the spacetime turbulence outside the boundary wall!

"This King of Reincarnation has gone mad."

The Sky Chaser King was slightly taken aback, but the next second his expression changed drastically!

"No, he's trying to run!"

He didn't have time to think, and immediately controlled the Flame Light Realm to expand instantly!

The vast golden flames broke through the boundary barrier and swept towards the black tower floating in the spacetime turbulence.

However, the moment this golden flame came into contact with the extremely violent spatial turbulence outside, it was immediately shattered by the impact!

The black tower, however, flickered continuously and disappeared from his sight in the blink of an eye.

"How did he do that? Why is he unaffected by the spacetime turbulence?!"

The Sky Chaser King's gaze froze, and then a bad premonition surged into his heart!

"Huh? Heavenly King, where's the Human Reincarnation King?"

As the hazy light of the divine kingdom's teleportation gradually faded, a terrifying giant bird, 15 kilometers tall, pure white, with nine slender necks and a ferocious head, appeared beside the Sky King.

It was King Zhenwu who had come to reinforce us, carrying a treasure of the soul.

Upon hearing his question, the Sky King's expression instantly turned ugly.

Killing the Human Reincarnation King is currently the most important mission on the Demon Race's assassination list!

He was able to receive this mission thanks to his teacher's efforts in facilitating his advancement. The teacher hoped that he could accumulate more community contributions through this mission and strive for the opportunity to break through to the Venerable level.

For this reason, his venerable teacher even applied to the clan to temporarily hand over control of the Azure Smoke Palace and the Flame Light Realm to him.

But what was the result?

Despite such meticulous planning, the King of Reincarnation still managed to escape!

"So close! Damn Reincarnation King, you could have waited until Zhenwu King had fully descended before running away!"

The Sky Chaser King cursed inwardly, but mumbled aloud:

"Knowing he couldn't escape, and probably fearing being controlled by the soul, the King of Reincarnation rushed into the temporal turbulence and committed suicide!"

"Rushing into a spacetime turbulence?"

King Zhenwu asked in confusion, "King Tianqu, I heard that the clan temporarily entrusted the Azure Smoke Palace and the Flame Light Realm to you, right? With these two treasures in hand, how did you still manage to give that Reincarnation King a chance to escape?"

"Hmph, that King of Reincarnation possesses a palace-like treasure bestowed upon him by the human race, and he also has the special ability to teleport by breaking through spatial barriers."

The Heavenly Drive King sneered, "However, I have discovered a great secret about this Reincarnation King. Zhenwu King, you may leave now. I need to report to Venerable Jialong first!"

Without lingering, he summoned an immortal servant and used the divine kingdom teleportation technique to leave.

"Hmph, a king from a small tribe, what's with the arrogance!"

King Zhenwu chuckled, his nine enormous birds and beasts spinning around as he muttered something.

"Possessing a palace treasure... it seems that the King of Reincarnation truly holds an extraordinary position among humans! However, even with the palace treasure protecting him, escaping from this spatial turbulence will be difficult. What a pity."

It stared at a patch of empty space beside it, where a nearly transparent, hazy mist was slowly drifting.

"By the way, Tan You, the King of Exorcism was too shy to talk much that day. Could you tell me in detail what happened just now?"

Meanwhile, amidst the endless turbulent flow of time and space, a black pagoda, shrunk to just over three meters tall, was rapidly flying.

Around this black pagoda, a hazy, colorful radiance rippled slightly, temporarily isolating the turbulent currents of time and space that were sweeping in.

"At the current rate at which the power of the Qiankun World is being consumed, it can only last for about half an hour. Hopefully, this half hour will allow me to be lucky enough to cross to another safe path."

Inside the Myriad Pagoda, Zhou Yang's expression was somewhat solemn.

Within the sixth level of the Prison of Absolute Despair, the intensity of the spatial-temporal turbulence exceeded his expectations.

Correspondingly, the amount of world power required to maintain the Qiankun World is also frighteningly large.

If it weren't for the fact that his inner world has now reached a diameter of nearly 7.5 million kilometers, hundreds of times larger than that of an ordinary world lord, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold on for long!

Even so, half an hour was already his limit!

Even though a large number of treasures for restoring divine power were collected in the 'Gunato' cave, it still takes time to absorb the treasures and recover, and the speed of this recovery is far slower than the speed at which the universe is maintained.

If he cannot reach another safe path within half an hour, he fears he will be permanently lost in this endless turbulent flow of time and space.

Although protected by the Pagoda of Myriad Manifestations, there is no immediate danger to their lives.

However, without the means to shield against the spatial turbulence of the Qiankun Power, the Myriad Manifestations Tower would likely be swept away immediately by the extremely violent spatial turbulence of the sixth level of the Absolute Prison.

If he were to accidentally be swept into the deepest, third-level region of this spatial-temporal prison, unless he called upon the Lord of Chaos for rescue, he would likely never escape.

"Hopefully I'll be lucky and make it to safety."

Zhou Yang controlled the Myriad Pagoda, which flew almost aimlessly through the endless turbulent flow of time and space.

In places like this, conventional methods of location tracking have all failed, and he can only pin his hopes on luck.

"I only helped that Dream King once, and I was lucky enough to receive a huge reward of nearly 500 billion Chaos Yuan, which means I must be pretty lucky."

That's what he was thinking.

However, as time went on, he had to face reality.

Under the constant impact of the raging and chaotic forces of time and space, the barrier formed by the power of heaven and earth outside the Tower of Myriad Manifestations has become blurred and indistinct.

However, the hoped-for "safe place" has yet to appear.

Come to think of it, the probability of finding a stable and safe place amidst the endless chaos of spacetime is naturally pitifully small.

At this moment, Zhou Yang's world power had nearly dried up several times, and he was barely maintaining the operation of the Qiankun World by relying on the trace of power restored by consuming a large number of treasures.

"Faster, faster, even faster!"

He couldn't help but feel anxious.

Perhaps it heard his prayers, just as the Qiankun World was about to collapse completely, when an extremely dazzling and colorful light wall appeared in his perception.

"It's the boundary of the safe zone, great!"

Zhou Yang was thrilled and used all his strength to control the Myriad Manifestations Tower to speed toward the colorful light wall.

The distance between him and the colorful light wall rapidly decreased.

500万公里.300万公里.100万公里.50万公里.15万公里.

"Haha, looks like my luck has really turned around!"

Zhou Yang couldn't help but smile. The demon race had sent a powerful expert who was close to being a king-level invincible to deal with him, and had also used two supreme treasures (domain-type treasures are equivalent to ordinary supreme treasures), but now he had escaped with ease.

The demon clan leaders who orchestrated this must be furious!

However, just as he was secretly pleased with himself, an unexpected turn of events occurred!

Two somewhat unusual spatial turbulence surged forth and collided right in front of the Tower of Myriad Forms.

The collision of the two forces did not produce any huge fluctuations. Instead, they continued to rotate, twist, and entangle, gradually forming an enormous dark vortex.

"Buzz~~~"

The vortex spun gently, and an endless suction force erupted instantly.

The rapidly approaching Tower of Myriad Forms had no time to react and was instantly swallowed by the dark vortex!
