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

Chapter 405 Rewards for the First Stage

The news of Venerable Tush's arrival was immediately disseminated by the giant ship observers throughout the entire galaxy.

All the demon clan venerables who secretly favored Bai Yang were somewhat annoyed.

He, a member of the demon race who is likely born out of wedlock, would not normally directly "recognize his ancestors and return to the clan".

Therefore, many cosmic masters are already preparing to contact him again after he completes his lineage.

Unexpectedly, the Time-Space Nightmare Beast clan made an exception and sent out such a great deity.

It seems there's a real interest in Whiteleydo.

In that instant, many cosmic venerables immediately abandoned the idea of ​​recruiting him.

However, many of the stronger individuals among the Venerables became even more convinced of their original ideas.

It's time to have a proper showdown with Venerable Tushita!

In a normal divine succession, because the progress is not visible, no one knows exactly how long it will take.

So, apart from the fact that Venerable Sparrowscale has to stay here because of his duties,

Normally, no venerable person will come to wait for them in person.

However, after Venerable Tush appeared, many other cosmic venerables began to arrive one after another.

For them, sleeping for hundreds of years is a common occurrence, so they don't care about wasting a little time.

All of this was monitored by Xing Shou's external clone and reported to Bai Yang.

He continues to receive the torch, and occasionally he does some odd jobs to relax.

The mother and daughter from the Dream Shell tribe that he rescued in the demon realm have been living quite well in his world ring.

Nine years have passed, and that little girl has grown from a child into a graceful young woman.

The Abyss clone would occasionally glance at the mental clusters in the two people's minds, but it never found a way to break through them.

Why not give the two some pointers on their cultivation, given the abundant resources contributed by elite demons?

Even if they are of average talent, they are already at the planetary level.

I also learned through the virtual universe that my hometown is not here at all.

Xiao Wei was even more eager to return to human territory than her mother.

They must have some big secrets, which greatly intrigued Bai Yang.

There is now more than one cosmic venerable outside the palace.

How to get them back safely has become another problem.

Bai Yang needs to focus on receiving the inheritance, so he can only put these things aside for the time being.

We'll discuss everything once the tradition is over.

Four years later, Bai Yang stood on the 3333-step staircase.

It took him a whole month to finally complete the inheritance of this staircase.

Looking at the new secret rune in his mind, he felt both delighted and took it for granted.

"The Ancestral God Cult communicates directly with the will of the universe's origin, and the legacy it left behind may have been directly bestowed by the universe's origin."

This is a secret technique similar to Luo Feng's "I Am the Universe," so it's reasonable that the secret pattern can be deciphered here.

Now I understand why so many predecessors have never been able to pass on their knowledge.

They probably never found the right path.

This secret pattern, symbolizing the laws of space, was deciphered by Bai Yang himself from the secret techniques he had acquired.

It's not something that's inherent in the secret techniques.

That's why it took him so long; otherwise, twenty days would have been enough for him to complete the inheritance.

Only now can he be certain that the secret pattern he drew is completely correct.

Fortunately, he had studied "Shizhu Guangyin" for several years beforehand, and through this analogy, he was inspired.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have had it so easy.

Bai Yang composed himself and walked into the palace gate after taking 3333 steps.

The hall was shrouded in mist, and above the mist floated a stone tablet.

Mysterious characters automatically appeared on the stone tablet, and after a moment, they were all displayed.

The mysterious text reads: "You are the 8371st inheritor to arrive here. You are qualified to receive the title of 'Selector' and the Selector rewards."

Bai Yang was startled upon hearing this.

He remembered very clearly that his number was over ten million.

There are only so few inheritors who have completed the first stage?

This ratio is one in a thousand.

Luo Feng was the 157672nd person to enter the Temple of Inheritance in the Demon Sound Mountain.

However, he was the 61201st preliminary candidate, meaning that the chances of an immortal powerhouse passing the preliminary selection were almost 50%.

From this perspective, the task of becoming a Universal God General is indeed much more difficult.

Thinking of this, his heart burned with passion.

"The fewer the participants, the more difficult it is, and the greater the rewards and gains will be, right?"

At that moment, another voice rang out from inside the palace.

"Exceptionally high level of understanding in inheriting life! Completed the first stage extremely quickly, resulting in an improvement in prize quality!"

Suddenly, a blue light flew out from the clouds inside the palace.

As the beam of light approached Bai Yang, it exploded, revealing what was inside.

A blue jade stone the size of an ostrich egg appeared before him, which he gently took in his hand.

As soon as Bai Yang got his hands on the treasure, he felt waves of soul fluctuations.

He immediately asked, "What is this?"

This time, Xing Shou unusually did not answer immediately.

After a while, she said shyly:

"I have no idea……"

Bai Yang was surprised; he didn't even know about such a massive database as Xing Shou.

That was no small matter, and he was even happier because of it.

By this time, he had been in the demon realm for several years.

It's time to let the teacher know I'm safe.

The time-space clone put the blue jade into the ring, and the strange clone scanned the thing with a terminal.

Then, in his original form, he entered the virtual universe.

Now, he can directly enter the palace of the Dragon Lord without needing to report.

Standing in the enormous hall, he immediately spotted the Dragon Lord on the throne, who seemed to be dozing off.

At that moment, the other person opened their eyes and asked curiously:

"My disciple, what brings you here?"

Bai Yang bowed respectfully, then took out the jade stone and showed it to him.

The Lord of Dragons looked surprised and grabbed the jade stone out of thin air with his right hand.

"So this thing really exists... Where did you get it?"

Bai Yang was overjoyed to see that his teacher indeed knew.

He then briefly recounted his experiences over the past period.

The Lord of Dragons was initially only interested in the origin of this thing, but the more he listened, the more something seemed off.

His mouth dropped open in disbelief as he stared at the person opposite him.

"You said you won the battle against the demon race's strongest warriors?"

They even killed four or five thousand demon clan lords!?

Did they manage to snag a spot as a Universal God General?

Is this your prize for completing the first stage?

Bai Yang knew this was indeed hard to believe, so he grabbed downwards with both hands simultaneously using all ten fingers.

Dozens of golden threads instantly shot out from each finger.

Then these hundreds of spatial threads wove themselves together to form a golden roll of cloth, which floated gently in the air.

Bai Yang reached out, grabbed it, and gave it a gentle shake. Instantly, the entire space of the Dragon God Temple trembled!

After reading it, the Lord of Dragons spoke after a long pause:

"You bought the flesh and blood of the Time-Space Nightmare Beast at the auction and also went to the demon territory."

We all guessed you had a clone, but you're really audacious.

You're really lucky to have gotten your hands on this.

Bai Yang asked, puzzled:

"Teacher, what is this?"

The Lord of Dragons said:

"This thing is called the 'Tearful Heart Jade,' a legendary item that comes from the Mysterious Realm of Ancestors."

It is a rare treasure for strengthening the soul and will; even I have never seen one before.
