Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 66 The Real Effect

Inside the silver-gray spaceship, Zhou Yang smacked his lips, unsure whether to laugh or cry.

He had just tried to absorb the energy of a Blood Soul Sand.

In his mind, it was just a sudden warmth in his palm, and then nothing more.

Perhaps the effects of his life force were too abnormal, pushing the strength of his flesh and blood to a terrifying level.

That powerful energy, which could excite even Thor, who was also a star-level being, was like a drop of water falling into the sea for him, without making a ripple.

"No, it's not that nothing has changed."

Zhou Yang closed his eyes and sensed it, and soon he made a discovery.

"My sensitivity to fluctuations in the laws of space seems to have increased slightly?"

In his perception, the fluctuations of the fundamental laws of the space surrounding his body seemed to have become clearer.

Although the change was extremely small, perhaps only as small as a hair, he still managed to detect it!

"Hmm, this single grain of Blood Soul Sand has increased my sensitivity to the laws of space by about two to three per thousand. If we assume each person can absorb 50 grains, that's about one to one and a half percent!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Yang couldn't help but show excitement on his face.

That's quite a significant improvement!

So this is the true magic of Blood Soul Sand!

It should be known that treasures that can enhance the perception of fundamental laws are absolutely rare items even in the universe.

On some affluent planets, they are almost instantly sold out upon appearance.

"That's not right. This Soul River Secret Realm has existed for countless epochs. The Blood Soul Sand's ability to enhance the perception of laws must have been discovered long ago. So why is the price so low?"

Then he couldn't help but wonder.

"Perhaps this stuff has absorption limitations, and what I just absorbed was Blood Soul Sand; Heavenly Soul Sand might be less effective. So, the rich don't want it, and the poor can't afford it?"

Zhou Yang nodded, feeling that he had vaguely understood the reasoning behind it.

Those who have the money to buy such rare items naturally have better options.

Poor, indigenous people like them tend to prefer to search for things on their own, even if it means taking risks.

Is that why the price of Blood Soul Sand can't go up?

He sighed softly to himself and stopped thinking about it.

Seeing that Luo Feng and the others were still in a state of excitement, he gently reminded them:

"Luo Feng, Brother Hong, Brother Lei, just a heads-up."

"Try to save your absorption attempts for the Blood Soul Sand; this stuff seems to enhance your ability to sense the fundamental laws!"

The group of people, who were in the midst of their excitement, paused in surprise upon hearing this.

"Really? Can it really enhance one's perception of laws?"

"Give it a try!"

After his reminder, Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen tried it silently, and soon their faces showed surprise.

"My God, it really works! My perception of the fundamental laws of lightning has increased by about one percent!"

"I improved by about 0.5%."

Even Babata was slightly taken aback.

"This Blood Soul Sand has this effect? ​​There's no mention of this in the data collected from the virtual universe."

"This...this Blood Soul Sand, it's truly a treasure!"

Luo Feng, Hong, Lei Shen, and the others' eyes lit up.

"Quickly, let's go to the next location."

The silver-gray spaceship continued its journey through the dark red starry sky at sub-light speed.

They soon arrived at their next location.

However, the result was a huge disappointment to them.

In the small world behind this spatial vortex, not a single soul beast was found.

It's unclear whether it was not yet fully developed or had already been completely looted.

What troubled them even more was that their good luck seemed to have run out on the very first try.

They found nothing at the next three locations as well.

"Damn! Can our luck really be that bad?!"

The white-robed Thor slapped his bald head hard, his face full of annoyance.

The expressions on Zhou Yang and the others' faces were also not good.

We got off to a great start with the first spatial vortex, and I thought Blood Soul Beasts were everywhere in this Soul River Secret Realm.

So that was an incredible stroke of luck!

Zhou Yang spoke weakly:

"Babata, continue deeper into the secret realm, and be careful of the spatial vortexes along the way."

"receive!"

……

Deep within the Soul River Secret Realm lies a vortex space spanning hundreds of kilometers in diameter.

A fierce battle is underway at this moment.

A dozen or so human warriors with sharp horns on their foreheads and fine scales on their cheeks charged back and forth through a large army of Heavenly Soul Beasts and Blood Soul Beasts.

These people all possessed extremely powerful auras, and each of them had at least the strength of a fourth or fifth-level Hengxing.

The strongest man among them even faintly possessed an aura that reached around the eighth level of the Hengxing Star.

However, this group of people, who are so powerful, are now in a very sorry state.

An army of over a thousand enormous soul beasts completely surrounded them.

Among these large armies, there were as many as four or five hundred Blood Soul Beasts with dark red bodies.

This is a powerful soul beast equivalent to a human star-level martial artist!

Led by these four or five hundred star-level blood soul beasts, the entire soul beast army unleashed tremendous combat power.

One after another, the Blood Soul Beasts charged madly towards the dozen or so human martial artists, seemingly fearless of death.

With its sharp horns, fangs, and four claws, it relentlessly attacked, instantly overwhelming the group of humans.

Those human warriors could only rely on powerful weapons and protective armor to constantly fight off the horde of soul beasts.

However, among the humans being besieged, one person stood out exceptionally well: the young human at the eighth level of the Eternal Star Realm.

He charged forward relentlessly, wielding a massive black battle blade. A dense yellow aura swirled around the blade, making his attacks even heavier and more ferocious.

Almost every swing of his sword was enough to easily take down a ferocious Blood Soul Beast.

It was precisely because of his fierce performance that he and his group managed to barely hold off the attack of an army of thousands of soul beasts.

However, it was precisely because of his outstanding performance that he was quickly targeted by a powerful being in the beast horde.

The three-headed, intensely red blood-soul beast, as if clad in dark red armor, roared and charged towards him.

The three blood soul beasts were noticeably larger than the other soul beasts, and their bodies were constantly flashing with a faint red light.

Their speed and strength far exceeded those of ordinary Blood Soul Beasts. The three Blood Soul Beasts cooperated perfectly and managed to suppress the human man who was at the eighth level of the Hengxing Star Realm.

Without his intervention, the dozen or so human companions faced the onslaught of hundreds of Star-level Blood Soul Beasts, and their situation immediately became difficult.

"Ah Liujin, we can't hold on much longer! We need to think of something!"

Soon someone in the group sent out a distress call.

The one he called A Liujin was the eighth-level Hengxing man who fought against the three powerful Blood Soul Beasts.

His face was also extremely pale at this moment.

He was also feeling incredibly unlucky.

He never imagined that these dull-witted blood spirit beasts would know how to hide and ambush!

When I first entered this space, I clearly saw that there were only a little over a hundred Blood Soul Beasts leading more than five hundred ordinary Heavenly Soul Beasts.

But when they confidently charged in and began fighting the soul beasts, more than three hundred star-level blood soul beasts suddenly rushed out from underground.

Among them, three Blood Soul Beasts clearly possessed the aura of the peak of the Hengxing level, just one step away from evolving into an even stronger Blood Soul Beast King.

Even with his full power unleashed, he could only manage a draw against the three Blood Soul Beasts.

His companions were driven into danger by hundreds of Blood Soul Beasts.

The human warrior named A Liujin was fighting the three powerful Blood Soul Beasts while quickly thinking.

He quickly made up his mind.

"Amonka, Kurt, I'll unleash my innate secret technique shortly. You two, find the opportunity to lead everyone in a breakout!"

However, upon hearing his words, some of his companions immediately raised their voices in rebuttal.

"Ah Liujin, you can't do that! You can't withstand such a large-scale secret technique at the same time. Besides, what will you do then!"

These people all come from a cosmic race called the Illusionary Heart Clan.

The Illusion Heart Clan can only be considered an ordinary race of the fifth or sixth rank in the universe, and they can barely reach the planetary level after reaching adulthood.

However, a very small number of outstanding members of the clan, after breaking through to the Hengxing level, have the opportunity to comprehend a powerful talent technique—Illusionary Heart.

Once this secret technique is used, it can instantly pull enemies whose cultivation level is not higher than one's own into an illusion.

The duration of the illusion is related to the strength of the enemy's soul.

And Arujin was one of these outstanding members of the tribe.

In their past adventures, they had successfully escaped danger on numerous occasions thanks to Arujin's innate secret techniques.

However, precisely because of this, his companions knew that there were great limitations to using this innate secret technique.

Putting aside whether the three Blood Soul Beasts that had reached the peak of the Eternal Star level could be affected by A Liujin's secret technique, the sheer backlash from simultaneously unleashing a secret technique on hundreds of Eternal Star level Blood Soul Beasts would be enough to severely injure A Liujin!

Ah Liujin is the backbone of their team, and they absolutely cannot afford to have any problems with him!

"Stop arguing, or you'll be stuck here forever!"

A man from the Illusionary Heart Clan named A Liujin roared and forcefully repelled a Blood Soul Beast that charged in front of him with a single slash.

"Get ready to go!"

Without further hesitation, a hazy light flashed in his eyes as he prepared to activate the innate secret technique he had comprehended when breaking through to the Eternal Star level.

However, at that moment, a loud shout came from the other end of this space.

"Friend, do you need any help?"
