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

Chapter 578 The Imperial Armor Isn't So Good Anymore

A figure nearly 10,000 kilometers tall, whose heavy gusts of air from its nostrils caused the surrounding void to burn.

The black horn on the head of the Flame Emperor pierced straight into the sky, and his body was covered with dense black scales.

This man, who became the ruler of the universe and led his people to rebel against the human race, was originally full of domineering arrogance and self-importance.

His expression and mood at this moment were not good.

"It failed. If I hadn't stopped in time, I might have been seriously injured."

What was that golden light?

Looking at the River of Time that had just disappeared, Cao Benqi fell into deep thought.

This unprecedented situation surprised him greatly.

With his strength, resurrecting five high-level cosmic venerables would require a certain price, but normally such a situation would never occur.

But just now, he discovered the figures of five of his men in the river of time and tried to drag them out.

A strange golden light shone on him, putting him under unprecedented pressure!

The enormous tremor shook even his divine body.

He gave up immediately, but even with such a quick reaction, the terrifying kinetic energy still acted on him!

His breathing became extremely erratic, and even with his current level of cultivation, he was panting heavily, a feeling of lingering fear he hadn't experienced in a long time.

The armor on his body was completely useless against this backlash originating from the universe itself.

Looking at the now empty star system, Emperor Yan knew that a powerful force must have interfered with his actions.

Their strength and intelligence capabilities are extraordinary; they are probably among the strongest forces in the universe.

"Six high-level cosmic venerables have simply disappeared, and there is no way to rewind time."

Could it be that some force has mobilized a cosmic ruler, or even the strongest being in the universe?

How did they know I was going to attack Venerable Ganyan?

Emperor Yan couldn't understand it, considering that the Primordial Star would be opened in a few more eras.

Could it be that someone else is thinking the same thing as him?

He was anxious because the Mountain Hermit announced Luo Feng's identity and he was about to lose his armor.

How could the other people have such a coincidence?

The entire human race only has a few thousand Cosmic Venerables, and the Flame God Clan has lost six of them, all of whom were High-level Cosmic Venerables!

How could Emperor Yan not feel heartbroken?

Especially since Venerable Ice Deuterium was his right-hand man, the loss was enormous.

But now we don't even know who the enemy is or where they are.

No matter how angry Cao Benqi was, it was all in vain!

After venting his anger on the spot, he shattered the sun of this galaxy with a single punch.

He left the place still feeling dejected.

Just six days later, Bai Yang received intelligence from Hongmeng in his study.

Emperor Yan returned to the Mysterious Realm of Yan, and he was clearly in a bad mood.

The atmosphere throughout the entire Yan Mystic Realm seemed to become tense.

The mighty ruler of the universe can't find a worthy opponent and can only fume in silence?

He burst into laughter upon seeing this, feeling immensely pleased.

Venerable Gan Yan has joined Xingyang Group as a "senior advisor".

From now on, he can ask any questions he needs at any time.

Although he has resumed using the title of "teacher," they both understand each other implicitly; some things lose their meaning if spoken aloud.

A cosmic overlord who relies on the human race doesn't really have that many rules.

Her status is destined to be absolutely different from that of the Lord of Dragons.

Even Luo and Heqia held a much higher place in his heart than she.

Bai Yang sat in his study, looking at the three folders on his personal computer: [Star Core Forging Deciphered], [Metal Matrix Resonance Method], and [Ice and Fire Melting Divine Path], and felt very satisfied.

He asked the person opposite him:

"Is this enough?"

Across the desk, Venerable Fuhai, his body slightly bowed, looked at him with utmost reverence and immediately replied:

"Master! That's enough."

I have already seen it; these materials are the complete version in the hands of Venerable Ganyan.

With these, I can teach you the specific techniques, and it will be just as effective as if someone taught you personally!

Let her keep forging that piece of junk!

Bai Yang found it amusing, even though it had already become his soul servant.

This Venerable Fuhai still harbors such a deep resentment about this matter; it seems he has been holding it in for quite some time.

He believed this claim.

Venerable Fuhai actually only possessed the strength of a barely intermediate-level Universe Venerable, and his cultivation was far inferior to that of a Universe Overlord.

Considering their ages, his talent for weapon crafting is truly exceptional.

If he weren't a soul servant, there are some things I really wouldn't want him to do.

Seeing the eager look on the other side, Bai Yang was very much looking forward to his abilities.

"I have a prototype of an artifact, and I need to add various artifact functions to it."

For now, all I can do is change size, change color, and fly. What should I do next?

Without hesitation, Venerable Fuhai asked:

"Master, what type of refinement do you wish to make this treasure?"

Or what feature do you want most?

Bai Yang thought for a moment and said:

"This treasure is incredibly hard, and could even be considered to surpass the strongest treasure."

Its interior space is also very large.

I hope to forge it into a weapon, possessing some of the abilities of a flying palace.

Venerable Fuhai's brow twitched slightly, clearly surprised by Bai Yang's statement that it "surpassed the strongest treasure".

The soul servant was absolutely obedient and trusting of its master. It did not raise any objections and went straight into the brainstorming process.

"Such a hard treasure is indeed very suitable for crafting these two types of treasures."

If used as a weapon, its master would surely achieve amazing feats.

Therefore, I suggest that it is best to prioritize adding the [Transformation] ability.

Even if the owner uses another identity, it will be difficult for people to recognize you from the weapon.

Moreover, to inscribe such secret patterns of law, one needs a full understanding of the treasure's internal structure.

After I've reviewed it, I'll offer further suggestions.

Bai Yang also thought this suggestion was quite good, as it was also a dragon stele.

After it can transform, it can simulate various objects such as knives, swords, plaques, shields, towers, sticks, and clubs.

Given its unparalleled hardness, probably no one would be able to spot the problem, so he asked:

"There are less than seven eras left before the primordial star is opened."

What do you need to complete the renovation?

Venerable Fuhai immediately said:

"I need to see the inside of this treasure first."

Bai Yang nodded. That makes perfect sense.

In fact, when Venerable Fuhai was under soul control, he was taken inside to prevent him from self-destructing.

In the study, the two people vanished instantly.

They arrived at the main space of the Dragon Stele in an instant!

The two people seemed to be standing in a dark void, each emitting a faint white light.

Bai Yang addressed the Venerable Fu Hai, who was looking around curiously:

"I'll show you something, but you can only see it here."

After speaking, the secret pattern originating from the Heavenly Pillar of the Star Tower was sent into Venerable Fuhai's quantum computer.

On it, there were also various notes and analyses by Bai Yang regarding the ten major laws and secret patterns.

This is truly priceless!

Venerable Fuhai glanced down at it once, but could not look away!

He was also skilled in the laws of fire, but even a small part of it made him feel extremely dizzy.

"Master! What is this?"

"This is something that surpasses even the most powerful treasures, at least three realms above them."

In Venerable Fuhai's heart, the royal armor he had just acquired suddenly lost its appeal.
