Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Battle of Geniuses

Chapter 203 I Am Inherently Kind

"Is this a lie? That fully realized eternal god lost in a direct confrontation?"

The strongest among those secretly watching were shocked.

To be able to hold his own against the Eternal God in a direct confrontation, and even cut off one of its hooves, doesn't that mean... the Lord of Time and Space has already reached the level of a tenth-tier Primordial Ancestor?

"No, not necessarily! It might just be a limited method that the Lord of Time and Space obtained through that inheritance!"

"Let's take another look!"

The strongest beings in the universe who had originally intended to take advantage of the situation now put aside their thoughts. Regardless of whether the method they had just used could be replicated, they no longer dared to treat Hunzhen as a soft target to be easily manipulated.

……

The main battlefield.

"Wow!!!"

The eternal God, whose vital energy is intertwined, was injured, and the seven Allahs were simultaneously affected by the backlash.

The weakest of the Seventh True Lords let out a miserable scream, vomiting three liters of blood, and his aura weakened considerably.

The First God, who was least affected and in the best condition, immediately changed his expression.

The Divine Eye Clan is arrogant and unrestrained towards outsiders, but the seven True Lords within the clan share a deep bond.

"Big brother, don't worry about me!"

The Seventh True Lord, his face fierce and sinister, stared at Hunzhen and said, "That brat's battle blade is only at the peak level of a supreme treasure; he couldn't possibly use an attack like that so casually!"

The voice just fell.

Thousands of blade beams burst forth.

Each strike was like an unavoidable, bizarre attack shot from another dimension.

Each blade of light that swept across caused a violent tremor in space and time.

At first glance, its power, though not as stunning as the previous strike, far surpasses the strongest killing move of an ordinary true god.

Such deadly moves, in Hunzhen's hands, seemed to come out of nowhere, and he used them casually.

The Seventh God's eyes trembled, and his fierce expression vanished without a trace.

This attack was just one of the blades; if he were to face it alone, he would likely perish instantly.

"That's terrifying!"

The Seventh God, who had just been spouting nonsense, cried out in fear from the depths of his soul.

"Little Seven!"

The Third God roared, "Concentrate, or we will all die here today!"

"This guy... this guy's strength has surpassed that of the original ancestor!"

Even the voice of the Third True Lord, who was hailed as the second strongest among the Divine Eye Clan, trembled.

Although people like the Seventh True Lord know that Hunzhen is very strong, they do not have a clear concept of exactly how strong it is.

For example, if he is facing the Primordial Ancestor or the First True God, he will be brutally defeated. It's like he has 100 HP and is instantly killed by the BOSS in one move. So whether the BOSS deals 100 or 1000 damage to him, it doesn't make much difference.

He was already at the top level of the eighth rank, and could even hold his own against a ninth-rank expert. He had personally experienced the strength of the Primordial Ancestor in the past.

He possesses an extremely powerful treasure, making it difficult for even a tenth-level expert to kill him easily.

Even the Third True Lord has this feeling, and the First True Lord, a true ninth-tier powerhouse, can experience the immense power of Hunzhen even more.

He was very clear about one thing...

"This is definitely not a one-time attack triggered by some secret treasure, but rather the junior's own energy. But... how is this possible? How long has she been cultivating?"

The First God was filled with doubt and uncertainty, yet the speed of His divine intervention was not slowed down in the slightest.

Faced with Hunzhen's ferocious offensive, under the guidance of the First God, the Eternal God instantly changed form.

Originally, it had nine enormous heads, thirty-six pairs of wings, one hundred and eight pairs of hooves, and nine different tails. However, the number of hooves, which were the most numerous and were now missing one, rapidly decreased.

In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a creature with only one head, three pairs of wings, three pairs of hooves, and three tails.

Its size has shrunk by more than ten times, but its quantity may be highly concentrated, and its aura rapidly rises to its peak.

Its overall shape has also changed from a completely beast-like form to a human-like form.

At the same time, each of the seven True Lords possesses a supreme treasure integrated into their body.

Intricate and beautiful patterns appeared on the enormous divine body, and endless radiance emanated from the eternal true god.

If the Eternal True God had only reached the threshold of the tenth rank before, now he was moving towards the top level of the tenth rank.

Countless years ago, this strongest form managed to briefly suppress the Primal Ancestor.

However, strength cannot last forever. Even after a long period of time, due to the "plank effect" and the fact that the Seventh True Lord's strength has increased too little, this form cannot be maintained for long.

The biggest advantage is that although the energy consumed by the Eternal God increases sharply after entering this form, it is impossible for the power at the God level to truly harm him, so that the situation of the weaker God suffering backlash after being injured will not occur as before.

Moreover, unlike the previous complete form, in order to unleash the full potential of the Eternal God, nearly 70% of the control is in the hands of the strongest First God, while the other brothers are basically just tools to play the role of puzzle pieces.

Under the interference of the invisible field emanating from the strongest eternal true god, countless blade beams deviated, slashing out distorted ripples in the void.

One of the key characteristics of this strongest form is that it is weaker than certain types of attacks, and cannot even hit the target.

The Eternal God's successful defense brought a slight sigh of relief to the Seventh True Lord, but the First True Lord and several other powerful True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan still looked grim.

They dared not relax their guard for even a moment.

Even shrunk by more than ten times, the still enormous and majestic Eternal God swayed, and from one of its hoof claws, which resembled a human hand, a long sword of flowing light, as if formed by compressing the Milky Way, was condensed from starlight and suddenly slashed at Hunzhen.

Spacetime is frozen; forget about teleportation, even normal movement is impossible in this frozen spacetime.

Light and other forms of energy were completely absorbed by the powerful gravity, and endless darkness enveloped this space-time.

The power of this sword strike was earth-shattering. After all, this was energy that the seven True Lords had not fully controlled. As its residual power spread, stars within hundreds of light-years were quickly affected. In the spreading energy, celestial bodies of any size were rapidly turned into cosmic dust.

Ninety-nine percent of the universe's rulers couldn't even withstand the aftershocks of such an attack.

Even if a slightly weaker true god is protected by a supreme treasure armor, he will be completely annihilated in an instant.

The space-time they were in trembled and trembled, but Hunzhen and the tomb ship beneath his feet remained calm and undisturbed, like a mirage above surging waves.

Witnessing this scene, the First God, who had intended to overwhelm the enemy with his power and subdue them without a fight, had a glint in his eyes and finally stopped holding back.

He muttered to himself, "The Lord of Time and Space is indeed very powerful! But since you are so confident and arrogant, if you perish under this attack, go to the underworld and regret your arrogance!"

"We simply cannot obtain the inheritance through your soul; at worst, we can only dig into that tomb-like vessel!"

Faced with this unavoidable attack, Hunzhen looked up with an amused expression, letting the sword strike down.

An endless burst of light and heat erupted.

The True Lord of the Divine Eye Clan who were engaged in battle, as well as the powerful figures watching the battle, all noticed that Hunzhen made no move to resist the blow that shattered the starry river.

however……

Why...?

"How come you're completely unharmed?!"

The one who roared was none other than the First True Lord, the most composed elder brother of the Divine Eye Clan.

Even the mighty and proud First God could not withstand such a sight.

It will take a long time for the disordered spacetime to calm down.

Hunzhen was clearly just a small boat in this raging tsunami, yet he stood in it as if he were in another higher-dimensional world, and he was completely unharmed from beginning to end.

The First God suddenly felt a tremor in his soul.

"No, she is not in some higher-dimensional world."

Compared to the mechanical race's father god, not only in terms of strength, the First God's vision was also far superior. He compared similar abilities from some of the secrets of those "ancient civilizations".

He belatedly realized the principle behind Hunzhen's incredible operation.

"The Lord of Time and Space anticipated our attack. Before time and space completely froze, she performed two actions. First, she distorted our perception of time and space; second, she subtly disrupted the anchor point between our current time and space and the current universe, briefly creating an isolated island in our spacetime... Or rather, these two actions actually occurred simultaneously!"

This is the complete version of "Time Maze" that has finally been revealed to the world after thousands of years.

Thousands of years ago, Hunzhen's "Time and Space Maze" could only slightly distort the enemy's perception of time and space.

Thousands of years later, Hunzhen was able to briefly enter a dead zone in spacetime by distorting its own spacetime anchor point to a limited extent.

At this point, when facing a truly powerful opponent, the former becomes merely a small trick to prevent the enemy from noticing the latter.

Under normal circumstances, the spacetime fluctuations of a distorted spacetime anchor point would never be hidden from the opponent, but if the opponent's spacetime perception is disrupted, it may be possible to do so openly.

The latest novel is first published here!

At this moment, the most important thing is not that Hunzhen successfully dodged the earth-shattering attack launched by the combined forces of the Divine Eye Clan's True Lords.

The First God, with his most acute senses, suddenly constricted his pupils, a powerful intuition of death frantically warning him, as if some undetected great terror and catastrophe was about to befall him.

"Time and Space Strings: Strangulation".

With a melodious chant, a crystal shuttle pierced through the chaotic spacetime and arrived before the Eternal God in its strongest form.

The time-space shuttle that pierced through time and space continued to rotate at a speed exceeding the observation limit of ordinary true gods. The turbulence of time and space flowed backward along the rotating facets, forming a filamentous, vortex-like, narrow trajectory along its path.

It's as if... the disturbed spacetime has been materialized through the strings of a musical instrument.

The power of the time-space shuttle suddenly erupted, causing the surrounding spacetime to churn rapidly. The distorted spacetime force swirled around the head of the Eternal God, instantly twisting off its head.

puff--.

The shattering of the head was merely a symptom; the true essence was that the core of the Eternal God was completely destroyed by this attack, "Time and Space Strings: Strangulation."

The entire massive beast god's body crumbled in an instant.

The first to bear the brunt is naturally the First God, who holds the dominant position.

"Eleventh rank, surpassing the power of a true god?"

The First God, his body riddled with cracks, looked at Hunzhen, who appeared before him, and forced a smile that was more like a grimace.

The First God regrets his actions.

He had belatedly realized that Hunzhen had deliberately feigned weakness, and that even when he unleashed his strongest killing move, he had held back this one.

Even someone at the eleventh level, who was beyond the limits of a true god, shouldn't have been able to cripple him to the brink of death with a single blow.

Especially when the brothers worked together and had already unleashed the complete Eternal God.

However, the power that Hunzhen displayed was not even enough to be seen by an ordinary, fully-formed Eternal God.

They had no choice but to resort to their final trump card, forcibly activating the strongest form of the Eternal God, which they could not fully control.

That's fine.

Surrounded by wolves, he wanted to defeat Hunzhen with overwhelming force, while also scaring away others. He directly controlled the strongest form of the Eternal True God to unleash his ultimate move.

The failed attack instead exposed a huge opening.

Hunzhen aimed for this attack, instantly crushing the strongest form of Eternal True God, whose aura was at its lowest point, and also severely injuring the one who was in control.

"Good vision."

Hunzhen nodded slightly in surprise, and then with a light slash, the terrifying power of spacetime erupted once again. The same strange blade slash that cut off the hoof and claw of the Eternal True God was used before, and directly annihilated the body of the First True Lord.

He left behind several treasures from the First God, including the Supreme Armor, which floated in the void.

"Big brother!!!"

Several Divine Eye Clan True Lords witnessed this scene and let out a mournful growl.

"Stop howling, all of you, get the hell out of here!"

The third True Lord, the strongest of the remaining six, stepped forward and roared repeatedly at the still-stunned True Lords, "Go!!!"

After saying that, the Star Domain enveloped Hunzhen.

The other gods aren't fools either.

Moreover, they had already heard the brief conversation between the First God and Hunzhen before their death.

The eleventh level—that was a power that far exceeded their original understanding of the limits of a true god!

No one can defeat him!

The Lord of Time and Space before us is undoubtedly the strongest being in the universe!

The third brother of their Divine Eye Clan was the first to realize this, and without hesitation, he chose to give up his own life, sacrificing it to cover their retreat!

"Inherent time control".

However, before they could even feel a sense of tragic heroism...

The gray domain instantly retaliated against the star domain, enveloping an area within a light-year radius.

The "Star Kingdom" in the hands of the Third True Lord is a supreme treasure of the domain type. In terms of quality alone, it surpasses the lusterless core in the hands of Hunzhen, which is still a rare item and material.

However, the unique nature of the core itself means that it is not actually bound by the grading system of the cosmic sea.

Most importantly, Hunzhen, as the user, is far stronger than the Third True Lord who controls the Star Kingdom.

Even though the Third True Lord, who possessed the Star Kingdom, evaded the influence of the inherent time control, the other five True Lords were all trapped in a state of time stoppage.

Simultaneously confronting a supreme treasure of the realm and controlling five of the strongest beings, even Hunzhen could only manage for a moment.

But this moment is enough.

The time-space shuttle sped across the starry sky, its trajectory forming a silvery-white arc of light.

"The Strings of Time and Space - Lingering Echoes," Hunzhen murmured softly to himself.

The next moment, time resumed its flow.

The five Allahs remained in their fleeing posture, their vision flashing past as time-space shuttles flew by.

The chaotic spacetime rendered all their movements ineffective, causing them to collide with that narrow, silvery-white arc of light.

A terrifying power then acted upon their divine bodies.

In an instant, three True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan perished on the spot.

As for the Third True Lord in front of him, who had unleashed his Star Domain, he had taken a full-force attack from his own Blade Slash. Although he was injured, he was not killed.

After witnessing the fall of half his brothers, he chose to flee without hesitation.

The remnants of the four dead Divine Eye Clan True Lords floated around them. Hunzhen gathered the treasures and gave up the pursuit.

"Alas, I am inherently kind; I only wished to cultivate myself properly."

"Why are you all here to die? Are you trying to force me to kill you?!"

Hunzhen muttered to himself, then suddenly looked up and transmitted his voice to the other strongest people watching the battle.

"Gentlemen, do you still want this inheritance?"
