Swallowed Star: Lord of the Wolf

boom! ! !
A terrifying aura, like a volcano that had been dormant for millions of years suddenly erupting, burst forth unrestrainedly from Bai Yu's rejuvenated body!

This aura was as heavy as the earth, as violent as thunder, as hot as fire, as supple as flowing water, as sharp as metal, as vibrant as a forest, as still as darkness, as holy as light, and as unpredictable as a gust of wind... It was as if the essence of the nine basic elements had been compressed and fused into this body!
The mere pressure emanating from it caused the entire Abyss World to tremble violently!

The "Myriad Transformations Locking Source Array," meticulously arranged by Master Xuanji and which had previously managed to barely trap Mo Yan's avatar, shattered inch by inch under the terrifying pressure of this physical body. Countless array symbols and flags exploded with mournful cries, turning into dust.

"Pfft—!" Master Xuanji was struck as if by a heavy hammer, spitting out a mouthful of blood. He staggered backward, his face ashen, his eyes filled with disbelief and horror. "This... how is this possible?! His physical body... its strength... has already... surpassed the Great Celestial God's Perfection?!"

He himself was a Great Celestial God at the peak of perfection, yet he was utterly powerless before this oppressive force, so the level of Bai Yu was naturally beyond question.

The Blood-Burning Yin God was even worse off. Even though it was far away, it was still forced to prostrate on the ground by this pressure, unable to even lift its head. Its Blood Sea Domain collapsed instantly, leaving only deep-seated fear and humility.

Only the Heavenly Puppet "Shu" remained standing, its dark gold coating emitting a harsh scraping sound, though its gaze was constantly trembling.

The one most affected in the arena was none other than Mo Yan's incarnation.

His scholarly face, which had always maintained a calculating and composed demeanor, was now completely distorted, filled with extreme astonishment, anger, jealousy, and... an uncontrollable fear!

"No...impossible!!!" he screamed, his voice trembling. "How could you possibly withstand that?! And...and even use the fragmented energy for your own benefit, pushing your physical body to this level?! This is something no native of this world could do! What secret do you hold?!"

He felt that the gray analytical runes that he had previously infiltrated into Bai Yu's body had long been easily crushed and assimilated by his physical strength, leaving not even a trace.

What made him even more desperate was that the pressure that Bai Yu was naturally emanating at this moment had far exceeded the limit that his avatar could withstand. Let alone seizing the fragments, he now found it extremely difficult to even move!

It was as if they were being suppressed in place by countless elemental mountains!
Bai Yu slowly lowered his head—his body became more streamlined and agile, and the tips of his fur faintly revealed nine-colored light. In his huge wolf eyes, he no longer simply devoured darkness, but instead swirled a magnificent halo of nine basic elements.

His gaze, like that of a high and mighty deity scrutinizing an ant, fell upon Mo Yan's avatar.

Mo Yan's avatar froze, feeling as if all his secrets and thoughts were laid bare before those eyes. He knew, of course, that it was an illusion, but the fact that it could even give him an illusion spoke volumes!

"You..." Mo Yan's lips trembled, as if he wanted to say something, perhaps a threat, perhaps a plea for mercy.

But Bai Yu didn't give him any chance.

He simply blew a breath gently, as if brushing away dust, towards the direction of Mo Yan's avatar.

call--

A gentle breeze, tinged with nine-colored light, swept by.

However, in that very instant when the breeze swept by—

The expression on Mo Yan's face froze forever.

His entire being, along with the seemingly extraordinary gray robe he wore and the gray book phantom in his hand, decomposed and dissipated silently, starting from the smallest particle level, like a weathered sand sculpture, turning into the most primordial elemental dust and merging into the chaotic energy background of the abyss.

Only two objects, no longer under their owner's control but still radiating extraordinary energy, remained suspended in place:

One of them was the palm-sized, strangely round shield with a flowing mercury luster that had previously blocked the Blood Burning attack.

The other item was a jade slip that was entirely gray and covered with fine analytical runes—the very "Gray Analytical Slip" that Mo Yan had mentioned earlier!
Clearly, these two items were divine treasures carried by Mo Yan's avatar. Due to their special materials, they were not completely destroyed in the "gentle breeze" just now.

With a thought, Bai Yu automatically flew to his giant claw and put the two treasures away.

This is the first time he has obtained a God Emperor-level secret treasure. It is very rare and will be of great use.

However, now is not the time to examine the treasure; there are several other things to attend to.

Bai Yu felt the overwhelming, almost inexhaustible power within his body, and... the sluggishness and disharmony, like a car engine trying to drive an aircraft carrier.

A physical body at the peak of the God Emperor level!
This is a legend in most source worlds, one of the ultimate goals that countless cultivators dream of but can never reach!

Every inch of his flesh and blood contains a world-shaking power, and every heartbeat seems to resonate with the pulse of the world. The nine basic elements coexist harmoniously and circulate endlessly within him, forming a miniature, near-perfect elemental cycle universe.

However, what controls this terrifying divine body is still the mental will of a second-level God King.

It's like putting a bicycle steering wheel and braking system on a top-of-the-line supercar. It can run, and even at terrifying speeds, but the handling, agility, and subtle application of power are simply appalling.

At this moment, Bai Yu felt like a giant with boundless power but clumsy hands and feet. Every move he made required much more mental effort than usual to "restrain" and "guide" it. Otherwise, the overflowing energy might shatter the space, and even an unintentional action could trigger elemental turbulence.

He didn't even dare to fully engage in thinking about overly complex problems, fearing that the fluctuations in his soul generated by "thinking" itself would resonate with the enormous energy within his body.

"The power came too fast; my mind and will couldn't keep up," Bai Yu realized. But this was the best outcome for now. If it weren't for the incredible assistance of the cheat system, his physical body would have been reduced to ashes long ago.

He slowly suppressed the terrifying pressure that naturally emanated from him, which made the entire abyss tremble, trying to make himself appear more "gentle"—although in Xuanji and Fenxue's eyes, his suppressed aura was still like a bottomless abyss, full of immeasurable majesty.

The enormous wolf head turned towards Master Xuanji, and the wolf's eyes, which were filled with nine-colored light, had lost some of their previous madness and violence, and gained more depth and complexity.

“Friend.” Bai Yu’s voice was still deep and resonant, carrying the echo of elemental resonance, but his tone was much gentler. “Thank you for reminding me earlier.”

His thanks came from the bottom of his heart. Regardless of his motives, the reminder was genuine.

Master Xuanji had barely managed to suppress his churning blood and qi, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and gave a bitter smile upon hearing this. He cupped his hands and said, "Friend...you're too kind. I came here mainly for an old friend, and since that person from beyond the realm harbored treacherous intentions, it was only right that I intervened. I just didn't expect..."

He paused, looking at Bai Yu's enormous demonic body, which was shimmering with gold and red and radiated nine-colored light, his eyes filled with shock. "Friend, your fortune is truly... astonishing. My meager strength is nothing to speak of." His words were half modesty and half a test.

Bai Yu's current level of strength has exceeded his comprehension and ability to cope. He needs to redefine his relationship with this "friend".

Bai Yu nodded slightly, not explaining the secrets of himself, and instead turned his gaze to the Blood Burning Yin God who was still prostrate on the ground, not daring to breathe.

His enormous mouth slowly parted into a meaningful smile.

That smile sent chills down the spine of the Bloodstained Yin God, making his very soul tremble! He knew that Bai Yu had definitely noticed his deliberate failure to respond to the telepathic message he had received earlier, and even his intentional delay. With the opportunity potentially snatched away by a powerful being from beyond the realm, he, Bloodstained Yin God, had chosen to delay because of his own selfish motives!
Now that Bai Yu's strength has increased dramatically, killing him would probably be as easy as blowing a breath.

“Burning Blood…” Bai Yu’s voice was not loud, but it struck Burning Blood’s heart like a heavy hammer.

"Your Majesty... Bai!" The Blood-Burning Yin God almost instinctively used the most respectful title, bowing his head even lower, his voice filled with undisguised fear and humility, "I... I was previously misled by that opportunity, my soul was shaken, and I failed to respond to Your Majesty's message in time... I deserve to die! Please... spare my life, Your Majesty!"

He admitted it directly, which, though weak, was better than making excuses.

Bai Yu's enormous eyes stared at him for a few moments, his gaze seemingly able to penetrate all pretense and see into the deepest thoughts in Fen Xue's heart.

Just as Fen Xue felt each second dragging on and was on the verge of despair, Bai Yu's suffocating gaze shifted away, and at the same time, the terrifying pressure that had been suppressing him dissipated.

"Get up." Bai Yu's voice was unreadable. "Make a note of this matter for now."

Burning Blood felt as if he had been granted a pardon, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for sparing my life!" Only then did he dare to stand up shakily, but he still dared not look up directly at you, and stood respectfully to the side with his hands at his sides, feeling extremely fearful, but also filled with the relief of surviving a disaster.

Bai Yu ignored Fen Xue and, with a thought, brought down Le Yin Shen and Hun Yin Shen, who had been bound to him like two rice dumplings by his demonic energy. The two staggered to the ground, their faces pale and still in shock.

They witnessed the terrifying process of Bai Yu devouring the fragments, his aura surging, and his breath annihilating the God Emperor's avatar. At this moment, the way they looked at Bai Yu was like looking up at a god walking among mortals, filled with boundless fear and... indescribable fanaticism.

"Lord White Emperor!" The two also quickly knelt down and paid their respects.

"The Continent of Ten Thousand Demons..." Bai Yu was quite satisfied with this title. His gaze swept over them, then looked at the dilapidated abyss, and finally landed on Master Xuanji. His voice carried a hint of inexplicable emotion, "After all, it is my 'first homeland'. Before, Fenxue, Le, and Hun, my three fellow Daoists, had some goodwill towards me and helped me a lot."

He said this to Master Xuanji, and also to the three members of Burning Blood.

“Now, I have obtained the greatest opportunity here, and my strength has increased dramatically.” Bai Yu continued, “All the things in the past, whether intentional or unintentional, are in the past. I am not a bloodthirsty person, nor do I have any intention of turning my homeland upside down.”

Upon hearing this, the Blood-Burning Yin God, the Joyful Yin God, and the Soul-Burning Yin God finally felt relieved.

Bai Yu looked at Master Xuanji: "Friend, now that this matter is settled, I need to find a place to go into seclusion and stabilize my cultivation. I'm afraid I can't entertain you any longer."

Master Xuanji was incredibly intelligent, and he immediately understood Baiyu's meaning—he needed time to process what he had learned, and was now dismissing the guest.

"Rest assured, my friend." Master Xuanji nodded solemnly. "If you ever need my help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."

“Good.” Bai Yu nodded, satisfied with Master Xuanji’s answer.

……

When Mo Yan's avatar was destroyed, the three avatars of the Extraterrestrial God Emperor froze in the void.

The leading scholar, Mo Yan, turned deathly pale, his face flushing red as if he had suffered some kind of severe backlash. He clutched his chest, a trickle of pale golden blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"My Gray Scroll... connection... has been completely severed!" Mo Yan's voice was hoarse, filled with disbelief, pain, and rage. "That avatar... has perished! Even the Gray Scroll has been taken away!"

The Ash Analysis Scroll is not only a precious treasure at the late-stage God Emperor level, but also a crucial support for his "Multi-Dimensional Analysis Dao," and many of his core divine abilities require its amplification! Losing it would reduce his strength by at least 20%!
"What?!" The giant rock man Shui Luo and the butterfly-winged woman also changed their expressions drastically.

It's not unusual for an incarnation to fall, but for such an important treasure as the Ash Scroll to be stolen, and in such a short time... just how strong must the opponent be?
"Could it be that native who is skilled in array formations..." the butterfly-winged woman hesitated.

"No!" Mo Yan gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with horror and a hint of fear. "The one who killed my avatar was...it was that demonic wolf! Its aura...has become...incredibly terrifying!"

"How is this possible?!" Shui Luo exclaimed. "We just saw him make a move, and he was only at the Great Completion level. How could he kill your avatar?"

“He swallowed the fragments.” Mo Yan said painfully, concealing the fact that he had deliberately ‘fed’ the food.

The butterfly-winged woman raised an eyebrow. "It swallowed a fragment of a high-level Chaos Origin level? That demonic wolf should have exploded and died!"

"That's the truth!" Mo Yan smiled bitterly, his heart bleeding. "Not only did that demonic wolf not die, but... its strength has skyrocketed to a level we can't even imagine! Its physical strength is now comparable to that of a God Emperor at the peak of his power!"

"A God Emperor at the Perfected Stage?!" The butterfly-winged woman gasped. "In this Fangyuan World? Then he must be..."

"Invincible." Mo Yan uttered two words, filled with helplessness and regret, "In this realm, he is an invincible being!"

Shui Luo and the butterfly-winged woman fell silent.

Seeing Mo Yan's pained and regretful expression, they could no longer suppress their resentment and dissatisfaction.

"Mo Yan!" Shui Luo said in a deep, harsh voice, "It's all your fault! You insisted on acting alone! If the three of us had worked together, we could have taken that fragment with swift and decisive action, and things wouldn't have come to this!!"

The woman with butterfly wings also said coldly, "Mo Yan, you must take full responsibility for this loss. The Gray Analyzing Scroll is your own business, but that high-grade Chaos Origin Fragment... was originally an opportunity shared by the three of us, and now it has been completely lost because of your selfishness. How do you intend to compensate us?"

Mo Yan was in turmoil, heartbroken over the loss of the treasure and annoyed by his companions' accusations. However, knowing he was in the wrong, he could only suppress his anger and say in a hoarse voice, "Gentlemen, this matter… was my oversight. I will certainly make amends afterwards. Now… let's leave this realm quickly. That demonic wolf's strength is unpredictable; if it chases us out, the treasures carried by our avatars may also be lost."

Upon hearing that "the treasure might not be safe," both Shui Luo and the butterfly-winged woman's expressions changed. They had brought many valuable items with them this time, and if they were all lost here, it would be a complete loss.

"Go!" Without the slightest hesitation, the three of them even disregarded concealing their auras, changed direction, and sped towards the outside of the Source World, wanting only to leave this now extremely dangerous "newbie village" as quickly as possible. (End of Chapter)
