Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 248 The Great Revelation of the Bridge to Heaven

Bai Yang's location instantly changed, and he arrived in a virtual dimension that was entirely composed of ocean.

There is a beautiful island in the ocean, with 52 ports along its edge.

Each port has an endless bridge extending into the sky.

It's called a bridge, but it looks more like a space elevator.

In the square in the center of the island.

"Bai Yang".

"Bai Yang, you've come too."

There were already 16 young people around him, all of whom were in the same batch as him studying the "Dragon's Chaos Stele".

Bai Yang greeted everyone with a smile and then walked towards a man wearing a black star-patterned robe.

He has four ears but no nose; he is Baffin, the guardian who manages this place.

Upon seeing the first person of this year arrive, Baffin immediately and patiently explained the rules of the Skybridge.

Finally, he said:

"That's how it is. The Dragon Sky Bridge has 26 floors! The Dragon Chaos Stele is definitely one of the top ten Chaos Steles."

Each level you clear grants you an additional opportunity to comprehend the Chaos Stele.

I hope you succeed on your first try, Baiyang.

You guys were the first to arrive, so set a good example for those who come after you.

Bai Yang smiled and nodded.

He was very confident about this.

Seeing that Bai Yang was about to rush in, the others immediately dispersed and made way for the front.

Bai Yang smiled and thanked him, then transformed into a blur and flew directly towards the Dragon Journey Sky Bridge.

The moment he stepped into the Skybridge, Star Guardian received an email from the Virtual Universe Company.

Tell him the points he can get on each floor, and the benefit of ten times the points in Chaos City over 30 years.

Soon, Bai Yang flew to the end of the first level of the Dragon Travel Sky Bridge.

There was a huge cloud of mist there, and a sound came from within it.

"Choose your opponent; you can choose a warrior, a controller, or an illusionist."

Choose any opponent and defeat them to pass the first level of the Sky Bridge.

"I choose to be a martial artist," Bai Yang said solemnly.

call!

A ball of black liquid immediately flew out from the clouds. The black liquid began to condense in mid-air and transformed into a mysterious figure wearing a black mask.

The mysterious man held a forged sword in his hand, and his cold eyes, hidden behind a black mask, stared at Bai Yang as he said:

"Let the battle begin!"

"Defeat him, and you can enter the second level of the Sky Bridge," the cloud of mist spoke again.

Bai Yang knew that this mysterious opponent possessed his own intelligence and would sometimes even call the challengers stupid.

This is completely different from those things in the [Killing Grounds].

The second level of Forging Bright Edge—Heaven and Earth Across the Horizon—is used to initiate combat.

He simply took a step forward, and instantly countless sword shadows and phantoms filled the entire space.

Seeing such a display of power, the mysterious man quickly began to respond.

It's the exact same [Heaven and Earth Crossing], but the opponent's speed illusions are less than half of Bai Yang's!

Moreover, the opponent cannot see the arc of spatial fluctuations, making it even more impossible for them to unleash that powerful sword shadow.

Bai Yang was not surprised at all when he saw this.

He possesses two great innate abilities: an affinity for the laws of time and an affinity for the laws of space.

This effect can only be achieved when combined with the influence of the laws of light.

The strongest being on the first level of the Tower of Babel is at most a level where Duan Mingfeng is just above the second level, nothing to be afraid of.

As expected, Bai Yang gained the upper hand immediately, and the entire battle was almost one-sided.

But he wasn't in a hurry to win; instead, he was repeatedly examining his opponent's moves.

Unlike Mount Tongtian, the Tongtian Bridge is not designed to be difficult for the sake of difficulty; Virtual Universe Company did not intentionally make things difficult for geniuses.

The main purpose of setting up these mysterious figures was actually to guide geniuses to comprehend the laws and understand the Chaos Monument.

That's why it was deliberately designed with 52 different bridges to the sky.

When Luo Feng first attempted the challenge, he didn't understand this principle, which is why he lost to the opponent's second level despite only being at the third level of the Divine Weapon Realm.

Since Bai Yang knew this, he naturally wouldn't fall for it.

Both were at the second level of the Forging Bright Edge technique, but Bai Yang was far superior in actual combat.

But the mysterious man's true form and his speed illusion are actually demonstrations of the "Dragon's Chaos Stele"!

Bai Yang could easily deal with such an opponent, and could at least devote seven or eight tenths of his energy to learning from him.

No matter how the mysterious person used speed to create illusions, he was actually demonstrating the meaning of the first [Confrontation Diagram].

Bai Yang is currently only defending and not attacking, just to see everything about his opponent.

He soon had a sudden realization:

"I see!

This is the move of the man who looks like an Earthling in the first picture.

It turned out he wasn't empty-handed; he was using a weapon.

Whether he uses weapons or not, or what kind of weapons he uses, it doesn't really matter.

Because his real weapon is time!

Bai Yang immediately understood the main theme of the first picture and the first level of the Dragon's Journey Bridge!

This is misleading!

The first challenge of the Dragon's Journey Bridge is where the seemingly mysterious figure uses the second level of the Forged Bright Edge technique.

But in reality, the core of his concept is the first layer of "interference with everything!"

The Dragon-Riding Chaos Stele is centered on the law of time, but incorporates the application of various other laws.

Of course, it contains the laws of light!

With his understanding of the principles of sunlight, he was naturally the first to grasp the techniques in this area.

Intervening in everything is the most fundamental principle!

I should have realized this sooner!

The enemy we faced was too strong, and we couldn't directly influence their timing.

In the past, Bai Yang always chose to change himself, adjusting the speed of his physical body and the sword shadow illusion.

But if it's about "interfering with everything," why can't it directly affect the other person's metabolism?

There are so many things about your opponent that can influence you.

Metabolism, hormone levels, blood pressure, heart rate, body temperature, and even blood flow and thought processes.

Aren't these all things that can be interfered with?

Interference leads to differences, which in turn put the opponent in an unbalanced state, making them vulnerable to collapse.

Bai Yang himself is a master in biochemistry, so he can think of many things.

The attack power of Sword Shadow Illusion is not high, far inferior to Spatial Illusion.

But with such a large number of people, they weren't afraid of sacrifice.

This is like trying to apply a super debuff, "Time Flow," to the other person, but because it's too powerful, you can't apply it for the time being.

Then just spam a massive amount of weak debuffs all at once; the effect might actually be better!

That's exactly what this mysterious person did!

With the same number of illusory bodies, he could always unleash a variety of powerful moves to eliminate Bai Yang's side in advance.

At first, he thought it was because the opponent's illusion was powerful, but after a closer look, he realized that it was his side that was "weak"!

The power of the speed illusion largely stems from the air pressure created by ultra-high speed.

The mysterious person directly used "Interference with Everything" to affect the surrounding air pressure.

Therefore, Bai Yang's speed illusion became particularly prone to collapse.

"It turns out that the Sky Bridge can be adjusted according to the situation of the challengers."

No wonder Luo Feng is the Nine Universes Chaos Stele; he must be testing the laws of space.

However, the mysterious man's moves were entirely based on the principles of the Metal element.

I went out today, so I'm a little late. Sorry.
