Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 212 Heading to the Inner Region

The outer domain of the Peak Realm can be divided into 'airspace' and 'water space'.

The airspace refers to the void where huge celestial rocks fly, and the danger level is extremely low, with only occasional danger inside some of the celestial rocks.

Countless celestial rocks, most of which have been explored over the long years.

Therefore, what the powerful refer to as the outer realm of the Peak Realm is more often 'water area'.

The waters formed by the waterfall's impact spread and surrounded the entire main mountain. The waters were filled with jagged rocks and dangers at every turn. In many places, even the Lord of the Universe dared not teleport and had to fly forward with extreme caution.

Teleportation will only occur if the edge of a body of water is found to be safe after inspection by a 'Territory-type Treasure'.

"The most common and extremely terrifying danger in the outer waters of the Peak Realm is... the 'Water Spirit'."

Zhou Yang stood in the air, looking down at the endless waters below.

The waters are so vast that their diameter is hundreds of millions of light-years.

It's bigger than an entire human universe! Bigger than the ancestral realm!

Water spirits are unknown how they are born. They have no intelligence or consciousness, only instinct. Getting too close to them will provoke an attack.

A water spirit in this water, with the help of the water, is comparable to a cosmic lord.

However, Zhou Yang's strength is now among the upper-middle tier of the countless universe lords in the entire universe sea, so although he is cautious, he is not hesitant to move forward.

"Whoosh!"

Zhou Yang would sometimes teleport forward, and sometimes rush into the water to explore.

The mountain peaks (protrusions on natural rocks) and canyons at the bottom of the water are all potential hiding places for treasures.

Zhou Yang continued to move forward in the water, and more than six months passed in the blink of an eye.

However, in the past six months, not only have they not seen any treasures, but they haven't even seen a single powerful figure from another cosmic sea force.

"It seems this area has been explored many times before, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to find not a single treasure or even a single person."

Zhou Yang sighed helplessly.

There's no other way; the Peak Realm is divided into the 'Inner Domain' and the 'Outer Domain'.

Outside the mountain lies the outer realm, which is less dangerous. However, some dangerous areas can still cause even some cosmic lords with weaker survival abilities to perish.

Inside the mountain lies the inner region, an area of ​​extreme danger where even the strongest cosmic ruler could perish.

And at the core of the mountain, even the strongest beings in the universe could perish!

Therefore, the vast majority of the universe lords operate in the outer regions of the Peak Realm.

Over countless eras, many places in the endless waters of the outer realms have been plundered multiple times.

"It seems extremely difficult to gain anything in this outer realm. With my current strength, I should be able to go deeper. Should we take a look at the 'inner realm'?"

Zhou Yang is now a true master of the universe, and has even surpassed the 'perfect gene level' by 10081 times, reaching a new level.

Moreover, his secret technique is at the level of the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe.

With the addition of the Reincarnation Divine Armor and the Sword River Luo, it can be said that his current strength ranks among the top of the human race's universe lords. As long as he is careful, he should be able to protect himself in the inner domain.

"Let's go take a look at the main mountain of Qingfengjie."

"At worst, we won't go into the mountains. The danger shouldn't be too great."

"Whoosh~"

Zhou Yang burst out of the water and looked towards the majestic, boundless waterfall cascading down the towering, peak-climbing main mountain in the distance—

Rumble~~~~ This enormous waterfall, tens of millions of light-years high, has every drop of water comparable to a star. How terrifying is the impact of this boundless waterfall?

If this impact could be concentrated on a single point, even the strongest beings in the universe would be annihilated!

However, the dispersed bodies of water constantly impact the waters below, causing the vast expanse of water to continuously change.

brush!brush!brush!

Zhou Yang continuously used teleportation to quickly approach the main mountain of the Inclined Peak Realm.

"Um?"

When Zhou Yang teleported down again, his expression changed slightly.

A violent energy fluctuation emanated from the water below.

"boom!"

A jet of silvery-white water suddenly gushed out from the water!

This water column is tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter and travels faster than the speed of light!

A single drop of water in the Tilted Peak Realm's waters possesses energy comparable to a powerful star, and a water column spanning tens of thousands of kilometers contains an incredibly powerful impact!

"brush!"

The endless runes on Zhou Yang's combat boots lit up, propelling him backward instantly, and in the blink of an eye, he was hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.

"Rumble~~~"

The enormous column of water shot up to a height of millions of kilometers before crashing down, creating a massive spray and current of water.

Zhou Yang looked down through the water and could vaguely see a blurry phantom, almost transparent, that seemed to merge with the water as it gently floated beneath the surface.

"Water Spirit?"

He shook his head slightly, but his figure instantly teleported away.

According to the information sent to him by the Lord of Chaos City, this Water Spirit has nothing of value on it, and fighting it would be a complete waste of effort.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Zhou Yang's figure quickly teleported away, while the blurry figure of the 'Water Spirit' slowly floated before sinking back into the depths of the water.

"Huh, there's a battle aura here. It's a water spirit, and there's also a human?"

In the distance, on a massive celestial rock, a cosmic ruler, tens of thousands of kilometers tall, clad in silver armor and with three menacing spikes on his head, emerged from a cave in the rock and happened to see Zhou Yang's figure teleporting past below.

"Humans?"

"Judging from their appearance, they are definitely human, but they are very unfamiliar, and I have never seen their divine aura before."

The Lord of the Universe blinked.

There are only so many famous human powerhouses in the cosmic sea, and he knows almost all of them, but the human aura before him is so unfamiliar.

"I've seen the appearances of all the powerful human beings, but this one is unfamiliar. He must be a newly emerged cosmic ruler, perhaps from some small universe or a primordial universe."

"Hmph, a newbie who's just started out venturing out into the world is so brazenly teleporting; he's practically asking for death."

A hint of ferocity flickered in the pupils of this alien universe lord.

He glanced in the direction Zhou Yang had gone, then quietly followed.

brush!brush!brush!

Zhou Yang quickly approached the main mountain of the Inclined Peak Realm...

As the saying goes, "Looking at a mountain makes a horse run itself to death," and looking at the main mountain of the Inclined Peak Realm, Zhou Yang was quite tired after teleporting all the way down.

Finally, after teleporting for more than 30 million light-years, he was very close to the main mountain.

The feeling of viewing "Qingfengjie" from a distance is completely different from the feeling of being up close.

Zhou Yang can now see scenes within a range of tens of thousands of light-years through his spacetime perception.

However, compared to the enormous size of the Peak Realm, this is merely the tip of the iceberg.

The towering, endless main mountain peak and the cascading waterfall exuded boundless power, causing countless celestial rocks to fly around it and forcing away large amounts of chaotic air currents.

Ancient, vast, majestic, and heavy—the powerful aura constantly assaulted Zhou Yang's mind, making him feel a subtle pressure.

"How exactly did this Peak Realm come into being? Was it born from the cosmic sea, or was it the result of the intervention of the will of some powerful being?"

Zhou Yang couldn't help but feel curious.

Furthermore, this Inclined Peak Realm contains a reincarnation passage leading to the Origin Continent. But how was that reincarnation passage formed?

"Sigh, there are just too many secrets behind this, including the situation on the Origin Continent. Even that great author didn't explain it clearly. I wonder if he wrote a sequel or something after I transmigrated. It's a pity I won't be able to see it."

Zhou Yang chuckled to himself.

He sighed, no longer dwelling on these things that he couldn't investigate for the time being, and began to descend rapidly towards the main mountain of the Inclined Peak Realm.

However, at that moment—

A humming sound came from spacetime, and the surrounding space instantly froze.

At the same time, a surging black flame swept in like a tidal wave, instantly filling a radius of 1 light-year!

Amidst the endless flames, a towering figure, tens of thousands of kilometers tall, strode towards Zhou Yang.
