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

Chapter 348 An Exception Had to Be Made

In the Primordial Realm, inside a manor made from a fragment of a star.

Moro slammed the cup in his hand down, and it smashed against the wall with a loud crack, shattering into pieces.

His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was filled with disbelief.

"Bai Yang has awakened! He has awakened from the most dangerous abyss of purgatory!"

He finally found an opportunity to trick Luo Feng.

Bai Yang disappeared again, and he felt much better for a while.

Unexpectedly, during the qualifying match, Luo Feng suddenly appeared and beat him up.

Crove and Berlan both defeated him, and unsurprisingly demoted him to the Primordial Zone.

In addition to Rong Jun, the three of them would cause him trouble whenever they had a spare moment.

"He's back now. He even said he got a huge benefit and is going to challenge Mount Tongtian!?"

Moro clutched his chest, feeling a tightness in his chest. Why couldn't he just die there?!

The news spread like wildfire in just one afternoon, not just in the global arena.

Even many members of the domain lord level secret realms knew about it.

Emails, like snowflakes, were sent to the Watcher Baffin, all requesting that he inform them of Bai Yang's whereabouts as soon as possible the next day.

Baffin looked at these things and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Bai Yang is too eye-catching."

I've only been awake for half a day, and I've already caused such a huge uproar.

He could only give a uniform reply that he would definitely comply when the time came.

The next morning, Bai Yang, who had spent the night with Ai Chen, appeared in the Tongtian Bridge dimension feeling refreshed.

As soon as he arrived, he found the place packed with a large, dark crowd.

Many of them were familiar faces, and even those I didn't recognize, judging from their features, were probably some domain lords I'd heard of.

These people knew they couldn't see his progress, but they still decided to come here to see Bai Yang's real appearance.

Bai Yang wasted no time and went straight to the Dragon Journey Bridge to prepare for the challenge.

The bottom of the entire skybridge was completely empty; there wasn't a single person queuing.

He greeted the guards with a smile.

"Lord Baffin, it's been a long time."

"Bai Yang, you'd better hurry up and go. You're not coming out today."

Nobody's really interested in making their own way.

Looking at Bai Yang, Baffin made a little joke.

Bai Yang didn't stand on ceremony and walked straight into the Sky Bridge, teleporting directly to the previous ninth floor.

It was still that boundless starry sky, and at the end of the bridge to heaven, a small meteorite with a diameter of several kilometers was suspended.

Bai Yang glanced at his old rival standing above, his heart remaining calm and undisturbed.

The gatekeeper, dressed in silver and wearing a silver mask, saw Bai Yang approaching and smiled, "It's you?"

Little one, it's been less than two hundred years since you last challenged the level. You're still too..."

Bai Yang casually thrust his sword forward, but the forged blade did not emit any light.

A long sword was inserted into the opponent's throat so plainly that the enemy did not even make any move that could be called resistance.

His time was manipulated.

"Coo coo..."

The gatekeeper looked on in disbelief, clutching his throat and backing away step by step, but he could not stop the blood from gushing out.

Just seconds later, he turned into a corpse and fell heavily to the ground.

The passage to the tenth level of the Skybridge has opened!

Bai Yang flew upwards without hesitation.

The guard, Baffin, paled; his shock was beyond words.

He mechanically began sending emails to notify everyone of the news.

The area under the Longxing Tongtian Bridge was now packed with people.

Two of them stood out; their mere presence was striking.

One of them was wearing gray armor and had yellow hair on his face.

With a pair of brown eyes that gleamed with an eerie green light, and fangs occasionally peeking out from the corners of his mouth, he was none other than the werewolf Krov, who had recently passed through the eighth level of the Sky Bridge.

Opposite him stood a handsome young man dressed in casual clothes; this was Fito.

He was originally the only genius among the company's universe-level geniuses to have passed the eighth level of the Sky Bridge.

The two of them looked down at their personal computers in disbelief.

They received Bai Yang's clearance email at that very moment.

The two have faced each other in the qualifying matches every hundred years, so they are quite familiar with each other.

Krov looked at Fitu and asked in a gruff voice:

"A few seconds?"

Fioto wore a wry smile; he knew what the other person was asking, and replied in unison:

"Fifteen seconds. The battle ended in that short time after we went up to Baiyang."

This is something only the two of them understand.

Within the Virtual Universe Company's universe-level system, only the two of them had simultaneously witnessed the scenery of the seventh and eighth levels.

They knew very well that the two floors were operating at normal speed.

It takes about 10 seconds to fly from the entrance to the gatekeeper.

The bridge to heaven has a threshold every three levels, and the ninth level is actually designed the same as the previous two levels.

In other words, Bai Yang killed their unattainable opponent in a maximum of five seconds.

This is a killer deal!

Krov's hairy face was full of bitterness, and he let out a heavy sigh.

"Ever since I learned about Bai Yang's achievements, I have no hope of entering the Primal Secret Realm this time."

So they focused most of their energy on the task at hand and narrowly avoided a fatal crisis.

But unexpectedly, Luo Feng suddenly appeared and defeated me.

Now, even a hundred years from now, I have no hope.

Fioto's expression was very strange as he said:

"Krov, do you think it's impossible for Bai Yang to get through Tongtian Mountain?"

Krov looked at him in surprise and said:

"Of course. The primordial Tongtian Mountain, at least at the level of the 12th floor of the Tongtian Bridge, is a cosmic-level mountain."

Moreover, even if one comprehends the laws sufficiently, success is not guaranteed.

I believe that Bai Yang will be able to do this thousands or tens of thousands of years from now.

But this is only his first century in the primordial realm, how could this be?

Fitu raised his head, looked at the bridge to the heavens that led into the void, and murmured:

"Yes, it's said he's not even 500 years old yet. A cosmic-level being can live for 100,000 years, he's too young."

However, I always felt that he wasn't someone who liked to talk nonsense.

He must have some kind of confidence.

The werewolf Croft followed his gaze upwards, and suddenly felt a vibration in his hand.

Both of them lowered their heads at the same time, and Krov asked in a slightly trembling voice:

"How long did it take this time?"

Feto's handsome face flushed red and then paled as he uttered a number:

"50 seconds."

"The tenth level of the Sky Bridge!"

"Yes, the tenth floor..."

This is a leap to a higher realm; the comprehension of the laws has reached the minimum standard for immortality.

At this moment, the entire island where the Sky Bridge is located is completely silent.

Everyone stared at the personal terminal, speechless for a long time.

A few seconds later, all the geniuses' personal computers vibrated again.

"Impossible! This time it only lasted less than 10 seconds!"

Some people were screaming almost hysterically, finding it hard to believe.

Crove and Fioto quickly looked at the email; they too were unable to accept such a speed.

Fortunately, this time it wasn't a completion hint.

The sender was Nine Swords Venerable, and the subject was: Purgatory Abyss: Nine Deaths and One Life, Don't Act Recklessly!

The Nine Swords Venerable, seeing the dozens of applications from the Abyss of Purgatory already received, finally couldn't hold back any longer.

This was an exception he made by using his authority to issue a reminder; he couldn't really expect geniuses to fill in the gaps, could he?
