Swallowed Star: Lord of the Wolf

If the remaining power of that Chaos Ruler was a deathly oppressive force, then the aura surging forth now is a living, boiling, all-consuming ultimate darkness!

"Buzz--!!!"

The Mosquito King, which had just been wailing in agony over the collapse of its home, seemed to have its throat choked the moment this aura appeared, and all its sounds were forcibly silenced.

Its massive, ferocious body trembled violently and uncontrollably. On its dark golden carapace, black and white patterns symbolizing destruction and rebirth flickered wildly, and then... dimmed. The light in its enormous compound eyes went out, leaving only boundless, primal fear of its superiors, stemming from its bloodline.

Not just that!

The entire chaotic and frenzied swarm of demonic mosquitoes fell into a deathly silence under the influence of this aura. Like insects frozen in amber, they remained in their previous chaotic state, stiff in place, even forgetting to flap their wings... They fell down with a rustling sound, only to be shattered by the aura surging upwards from below.

In a short time, the number of mosquitoes that died unjustly was countless.

This is an absolute crushing defeat on a life level.

Xu Yang's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of pinpoints... The will of a Chaos Overlord level was like a small boat encountering a cosmic storm, rocking violently and frantically issuing warnings.

Even though the system protects him and he won't be substantially affected by it, he can still feel the terror of this aura.

"What is that?!" Xu Yang was utterly shocked. "Could it be the God-King?!"

He believed that if it weren't for the system's white light effectively blocking the impact, his will and his newly strengthened divine body would have collapsed directly under this aura.

He suddenly looked down at the bottomless abyss, where the densest annihilation energy churned.

The chaotic miasma in the lower layer, which resembled an endless abyss of darkness, was now violently churning and expanding like boiling water!

A colossal silhouette, so immense it brought thought to a standstill, was slowly arching upwards, piercing through the endless dark miasma.

The first thing that catches the eye is... two eyes!
No, it can't even be called an eye.

It was a colossal shadow, several times larger than the remains of the previous Chaos Overlord, resembling a fragmented galaxy. And in the center of that shadow, a… rift slowly opened!
That gap was like a wound that tore through the void!

Even with the spatial strength of the Origin Continent, the commotion caused by opening its eyes still tore open terrifying, pitch-black spatial rifts.

Within the crevice, there was not an eyeball, but a swirling, rotating vortex composed of countless shattered stars, solidified laws of destruction, and the purest chaotic darkness.

Just being swept by that "gaze," if it could even be called a gaze, made Xu Yang feel as if his soul was about to be frozen, sucked in, and crushed... As for the Mosquito King, which had no system protection, its enormous body was as if it had been struck by an invisible giant mountain, howling and rolling backward, its carapace cracking, and its divine aura instantly weakening.

Immediately following, as the entire lower structure of the Demon Abyss groaned under the strain, more outlines emerged from the miasma.

That was a... head.

A head so enormous that it cannot be precisely described in words.

Its size made the corpse of the Chaos Overlord, which spanned billions of kilometers, appear as an insignificant mound in comparison.

The surface of the skull was no longer flesh or rock, but covered with thick, twisted, living-like dark crystals. The crystals were covered with grooves and cracks that seemed longer than the Milky Way, and deep within the cracks flowed a dark red, viscous light like congealed blood.

The mere appearance of this head occupies enough space to fit hundreds of ordinary Chaos Overlords.

The oppressive force it brought caused the space in the core area of ​​the Chaos Abyss to shatter and collapse like a mirror... Time and space completely lost their meaning here, leaving only pure, endless destruction and chaos.

"Roar--"

It wasn't a sound, but a terrifying rhythm that directly affected the level of cosmic rules, spreading from the mouth of that head.

hum! ! !
The entire Chaos Abyss, from the upper to the middle and lower levels, was engulfed in a destructive surge of energy under the influence of this rhythm, much like water rippled by a stone thrown into it.

Countless floating land fragments were instantly reduced to dust.

The raging chaotic energy, like a tamed beast, swirled and worshipped around the enormous head.

run! ! !
The thought arose in Xu Yang's mind. He had never seen the God King before, and he didn't know if the current system could block the God King's prying eyes. He could only take a gamble while the God King was not fully awake.

"Teleport! Get out of here immediately!!"

Buzz—! ! ! !

At the critical moment, a tiny yet incredibly resilient spatial rift was forcibly torn open in front of Xu Yang, disappearing unnoticed amidst the shattered chaos of the Demon Abyss void.

Without the slightest hesitation, he transformed into a streak of light, exerting all his strength as he plunged headlong into the rift.

In the last instant before his figure disappeared, he seemed to see, through the back of his head, that enormous, unimaginably large head, with its huge eye slit resembling a galactic scar, turn slightly in his direction.

Immediately afterwards, a chilling will that seemed to freeze the soul swept across the spot where he had disappeared.

The crack closed instantly.

Boom! ! !

Where Xu Yang disappeared, the space collapsed and annihilated completely, like fragile glass!
It forms a terrifying black hole that devours everything!
The enormous head that stretched across the lower level of the Chaotic Abyss did not rise completely; only the top and a small portion of the head were visible. It hovered there silently, like a world unto itself, radiating a deathly stillness and evil that instilled despair in all living beings.

Having failed to find his target, he seemed to lose interest.

The enormous vortex eye slowly closed, and the gap that resembled a galactic scar disappeared.

The enormous, boundless head began to slowly sink once more, disappearing back into the churning, endless chaotic, dark miasma below...

All that remained was the entire Chaotic Demon Abyss, as if it had undergone a catastrophe. Space was shattered, energy was boiling, and countless demonic mosquitoes were reduced to ashes by the aftershocks.

The Mosquito King, though miraculously alive, was like a frightened bird. Leading its remaining kin, it fled in panic from the core area, which had been completely turned into a wasteland, and desperately fled towards the outer reaches of the Demon Abyss.

……

Inside the meditation room of the Burning Flame Department, a flash of light appeared in the crack, and Xu Yang emerged.

He suddenly spat out a mouthful of pale golden divine blood, his face as pale as paper, his eyes filled with deep fear... Just now, the last moment his clone felt that will sweep over him, a feeling of tightness in his chest and shortness of breath almost made him suffocate.

"Which God-King is that?" Xu Yang slowly wiped away the faint golden divine blood from the corner of his mouth, his chest heaving violently as he forcefully suppressed the wild beating of his heart, which was about to burst out of his chest. The mental impact brought by the God-King's head was like a cold brand, deeply engraved in the depths of his will. That mere glimpse of the "awakening" pressure almost caused his newly transformed divine body to instinctively collapse and his soul to freeze.

"That was terrifying..." Xu Yang murmured, his eyes still filled with shock, but also with a sense of relief and an indescribable awe.

The waters originating from the continent were far more unfathomable than he had anticipated!

In such a perilous place as the Chaos Abyss, there is actually a being that seems to be a god-king slumbering.

If it weren't for the system's protection, the consciousness of this clone, along with the other clones, would probably have been reduced to ashes in that single glance.

After the initial fear came immense relief!

Fortunately, I chose to go with the support of the system, rather than going alone.

"System... saved my life again," Xu Yang murmured to himself. Being able to escape from such a being was enough to prove the unfathomable depth of the system.

He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock brought by the head of the God-King.

Fear is useless; only strength can bring true security.

Although this trip to the Chaos Abyss was extremely dangerous, the gains were so great that it was enough to make his first step into the ranks of the strong on the Origin Continent incredibly solid!

The complete inheritance of "Radiant Golden Body" and the transformation of the divine body were directly infused by the system, pushing the profound meaning of "Radiant Golden Body" to the peak realm of that Chaos Ruler in his lifetime.

It saved countless eons of arduous cultivation and painstaking effort.

The strength of the divine body underwent a qualitative change, leaping from the original level of the bottom layer of the Eternal True God to the level of the Chaos Treasure!

This means that even without using divine power for defense, the basic strength of the divine body itself is enough to withstand the attack of an ordinary Chaos Ruler without being destroyed—at the level of an Eternal True God, it can be called absolute defense!
He slowly stood up, his mind stirring slightly.

hum...

Inside the divine body, countless dark gold runes glowed faintly like stars, and an aura as heavy as a mountain and as tough as divine metal naturally flowed out.

Compared to him, the chaotic air currents in the meditation room seemed less violent, like a gentle stream, spontaneously flowing around him and being easily smoothed and absorbed by the invisible force field on his body.

He extended his right index finger and gently tapped the empty space in front of him.

laugh--

Without using any divine power, but only the divine power gathered at his fingertips erupted, the space in front of him was like a fragile piece of cloth, silently poked with a tiny black spot that took several breaths to slowly close.

"A divine body at the level of a Chaos Overlord... truly powerful!" Xu Yang's eyes flashed with brilliance.

This pure sense of power greatly boosted his confidence. He was now absolutely certain that with just this divine body, without using any treasures or secret techniques, he could easily crush a first-rate eternal true god. Even the super eternal true gods cultivated by those top powers would be unable to contend with him unless they possessed a one-time treasure that surpassed their own realm.

The higher the level of cultivation, the more impossible it becomes to fight enemies across vast realms.

He, an eternal true god, possessed a body at the level of a Chaos Ruler, entirely due to a bug in the system. This situation would never occur to a normal being.

The immediate priority is to consolidate the foundation, adapt to the power, and thoroughly familiarize oneself with and control this transformed divine body.

Even with the strength of a half-step Chaos Realm cultivator, they are still too weak on the Origin Continent and far from being able to act recklessly.

In the excellent training environment of the Burning Flame Tribe, one can maximize the effect of passive tempering by utilizing the vast chaotic source power, while simultaneously honing the coordination between divine body power, one's own will, and combat skills.

At the same time, the most important thing is to comprehend the laws of chaos.

After making up for the shortcomings of the divine body, comprehending the laws of chaos becomes the core task... The laws of chaos seem to be derived from the ten basic laws, but countless powerful people are trapped at the level of eternal true gods and can never step into the chaotic realm in their entire lives.

Otherwise, the Chaos Realm on the Origin Continent wouldn't be so rare, their status so high, and each one would be granted a title of Marquis and hailed as a Great Sage.

The Ruins of Chaos is the best place to comprehend the origin of the laws of chaos.

Make full use of his status as a guest advisor, and cultivate in seclusion here, striving to take solid steps in comprehending the laws of chaos, and lay a solid foundation for his breakthrough to become the master of chaos.

Although "The Twelve Source Heavenly Demon Stream" is good, Xu Yang, who has just escaped from under the nose of the God King, does not dare to go to the Qingtai Mountain Ruins alone without the protection of the system.

Even a glimpse through a tube reveals just how prosperous Qingtai Mountain once was, yet such a powerful force has become a ruin. It's unimaginable how powerful the enemy that destroyed it must have been... Even after countless years, there might still be spies watching that place... After all, reincarnation is possible on the Origin Continent, and Xu Yang doesn't know if the God Kings and Chaos Rulers of Qingtai Mountain have all been killed.

Quietly lying low is the best approach.

Therefore, during his time in the Burning Flame Division, he must use the formless and shapeless method to perfectly conceal this transformation, only showing a strong will and the strength of a second-rate Eternal True God, comparable to Elder Zhuyin.

Unless it is a matter of life and death or involves core interests, the true strength of the divine body will never be revealed.

"My divine body is complete, but my will still needs to be cultivated slowly... Time for seclusion!" Xu Yang looked at the deep passage outside the meditation room that led to the core area of ​​the Flame Heart Palace, his eyes becoming incredibly determined.

The terrifying moment in the Chaotic Abyss did not deter him; instead, it ignited an even stronger desire to become stronger.

His time with the Burning Flame Tribe would be a precious starting point for him to truly establish himself on the Origin Continent, accumulate strength, and move towards a higher level. He would make good use of all the resources here to transform his ship, which had just undergone a crucial upgrade, into a behemoth capable of cutting through the waves of the Origin Continent's turbulent ocean.

With a thought, the array patterns on the floor of the meditation room lit up with a blue light.

I'm going into seclusion.

……

Meanwhile, Xu Yang's clone, still in the Yongzan tribe, also decided to revise his plan.

Originally, he planned to keep this clone hidden in a small tribe as a backup plan, but now that he has a Chaos Overlord-level body, he can change things a little.

The main problem would be that it would slow down Guji's development. Realm Beasts are very strong, and they can grow stronger by devouring them. But his strength wasn't even top-tier among the Eternal True Gods before, so he didn't dare to take Guji and roam freely in the Great Wilderness... This way, Guji naturally wouldn't be able to develop quickly.

“Although the Eastern Extreme Region is good, it’s not the mainstream after all… This is the world of natives, and cultivators from various countries should also go and see it.” Xu Yang thought to himself, glancing at the bored Guji lying next to him. “Comparatively speaking, the Eastern Extreme Region is a bit more dangerous.”

The density of powerful individuals here is very high, including one Eastern Primordial Ancestor at the God Emperor realm and twelve God Kings. (End of Chapter)
