Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 255 Successful Sensation

In the new universe, at a location very close to its boundary, Zhou Yang, clad in dark gold armor, sat cross-legged.

whoosh whoosh~~~

Endless streams of dark energy were drawn in through the membrane of the new universe, and then quickly decomposed and transformed into various more peaceful primordial forces.

Zhou Yang silently watched all of this, his eyes seemingly shimmering with endless brilliance.

At this moment, the flow of time within a few meters around him had accelerated to its limit, faintly approaching a terrifying speed of 17000 times.

After all, it only maintains the time acceleration within a few meters, and the acceleration limit is higher.

With time accelerated by nearly 17000 times, Zhou Yang's consciousness seemed to be infinitely empty, trying to sense a very faint pulse.

Outside, one of his avatars, riding a treasured palace, traversed the cosmic sea, seeking a special kind of inspiration through various perilous places and unique environments.

In the new universe, his true form sits cross-legged at the boundary of the new universe, directly observing the process of chaotic energy transformation.

Deep within his consciousness, he was also fully engaged in studying and deducing the chaotic runes.

Now his will is comparable to the limit of the strongest in the universe. With such a powerful will, his speed of deducing the Chaos Runes has increased many times over compared to before!

In addition, as he continued to read the powerful inheritances and secret techniques he had obtained from the silver token space, a variety of novel cultivation ideas collided in his mind, and flashes of inspiration would occasionally appear in his heart.

With all these advantages, Zhou Yang made rapid progress in comprehending the Chaos Runes.

It has been nearly 10,000 years since the end of Duan Donghe's inheritance, and more than 27,000 years since he obtained the silver token space inheritance.

There are over 27,000 years in the outside world, but Zhou Yang has been cultivating for hundreds of millions of years in the new universe's time acceleration zone!

After such a long period of cultivation, coupled with the support of various mystical methods, Zhou Yang has now entered the final sprint stage of mastering the Chaos Runes!

The core of the entire Chaos Mystic Rune is just that tiny 'point', and from that 'point', 'time' and 'space' are derived.

Time and space intertwined and eventually spread and differentiated into eight more gentle and stable primordial forces: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, and light.

These eight fundamental powers can all be explained using 10081 of the most basic "mysteries".

From a single point of chaos, to two lines of time and space, then to a network composed of eight fundamental laws, and finally to the entire three-dimensional structure built from 80648 profound mysteries, step by step, it decomposes and differentiates. This is the evolution of chaos, a manifestation of creation.

Looking inwards from the outside, the chaotic patterns collapse into a net, then the net is broken down into lines, and finally the lines intertwine and entwine into a single point. This is the fusion of chaos, or perhaps it can be called destruction!

Evolution and fusion, creation and destruction, are two sides of the same coin in chaos, and the entire chaos is constantly in a dynamic cycle, constantly changing between the two forms.

Like the birth and death of a life, like the birth and destruction of a universe, it all repeats itself endlessly in this cycle of reincarnation.

The only difference is the time scale of reincarnation.

Zhou Yang silently comprehended the secrets, and before he knew it, the research and integration of the entire Chaos Secret Pattern was gradually coming to an end.

As the two 'lines' representing time and space intertwined, eventually twisting and converging into a single 'point,' suddenly—

"Buzz~"

Zhou Yang felt as if his consciousness had detached from his physical body, rapidly approaching along some mysterious and hazy fluctuation.

However, that mysterious and hazy fluctuation was too far away from him, and it seemed to be separated by some kind of mysterious barrier. No matter how close his consciousness got, it could not break through the barrier in front of him to continue to go further.

Only a faint, yet extremely mysterious and profound, fluctuation continued to emanate from him, causing his will to leap with joy.

And that is enough!

In the new universe, an invisible divine light seemed to emanate from Zhou Yang's eyes, and a hazy aura quietly spread from his body.

This aura was ancient, timeless, vast, and all-encompassing. Under its influence, Zhou Yang became profound and unfathomable.

His body was like an invisible abyss, silently devouring everything around him.

"Hahaha, finally, finally I succeeded!"

Zhou Yang's hearty laughter echoed throughout the entire new universe.

He began studying the Ten Laws during his time as a Realm Lord, and from the time he first encountered the 'Chaos Runes' in the Time Prison to the present day, he has dedicated nearly 16 years to the path of law fusion. If we include the cultivation time accelerated by the new universe, it has exceeded 10 billion years!

A billion years—what a long time!

After years of dedicated research, coupled with the powerful opportunities brought by the evolution of the new universe, the flow of secret runes, a strong will, and the inheritance of the silver token space, he finally, finally, on this day, completely comprehended the entire Chaos Secret Rune!

From then on, not only did he fully understand the Chaos Runes, but he also sensed a trace of the complete Chaos Laws!

Just as a star-level being stepped into the threshold of the Law of Wood, he can now be said to have stepped into the threshold of the Law of Chaos!

At this point, breaking through to the True God Realm is no longer difficult for him.

Given enough time, he should be able to easily create a secret technique at the level of the strongest in the universe!

Moreover, by sensing that slight fluctuation of the chaotic laws, he was able to truly begin his comprehension and cultivation of the chaotic laws.

Sensing the fluctuations of the Chaos Law at the level of a Universe Lord is far more difficult than sensing the fluctuations of the Ten Primal Laws at the Eternal Star level!

Zhou Yang's ability to achieve this demonstrates his exceptional talent in this field.

As long as he continues to cultivate and his understanding of the laws of chaos deepens, he has a very good chance of mastering the 'Source of Chaos' and even comprehending the entire 'Laws of Chaos' and becoming the Lord of Chaos!

The Chaos Ruler is definitely considered a top-tier powerhouse even on the entire Origin Continent!

"I'm not even a true god yet, so it's too early to think about these things."

Zhou Yang shook his head and smiled, "However, having successfully sensed the fluctuations of the Chaos Laws, it's time to try cultivating the 'True Explanation of the Myriad Beginnings'!"

"The True Explanation of the Myriad Beginnings" is a method that starts from the soul, unites the soul with chaos, and gradually strengthens the soul by sensing the pulse of chaos, until it controls chaos. When cultivated to its extreme, one can directly reach the peak of the Chaos Realm.

Moreover, its accompanying "Nine Strikes of the Heavenly Soul" is an extremely powerful secret technique for soul attacks.

If Zhou Yang can master the first strike of the "Nine Strikes of Heavenly Soul" and have the "Dustless" divine sword in hand, he should be able to possess combat power comparable to the strongest beings in most universes in the Cosmic Sea!

"The Lord of the Universe facing off against the strongest being in the universe—just thinking about it is exhilarating!"

Zhou Yang smiled to himself.

"Let's begin!"

Without further delay, he immediately began to recall the contents of "The True Explanation of Ten Thousand Beginnings" in his mind and started to try to cultivate it.

The core of "The True Explanation of the Beginning" lies in sensing the pulse of chaos. The laws of chaos are the foundation of all laws and the core of the universe's structure.

The creator of "The True Explanation of the Beginning" believed that "chaos," like life in the universe, also "breathes" and has a "heartbeat."

Treat 'chaos' as a living entity, sense its unique pulse of 'breathing' and 'heartbeat,' and use this unique pulse to temper your soul. As your soul grows stronger, it will gradually form a wondrous resonance with 'chaos,' thus getting closer and closer to 'chaos,' achieving true harmony with chaos, and ultimately controlling chaos!

To be honest, when Zhou Yang saw the introduction to this secret technique at the beginning, he was truly amazed.

This was the first time he had ever seen such a unique understanding, treating 'chaos' as life, and resonating with it by sensing its 'breath' and 'heartbeat' in order to get closer to and control it. This completely new way of thinking opened a door to a new world for Zhou Yang!

"Wonderful, simply wonderful!"

Zhou Yang quickly immersed himself in comprehending and practicing the "True Explanation of the Myriad Beginnings".

However, just as he was trying again and again, his clone in the primordial universe received a summons from the Lord of Chaos.

"Come to the Great Ax Temple quickly!"
