Swallowed Star: Primordial Artifact

Chapter 120: After Many Years, I Crossed the Tongtian Bridge Again

"After keeping a low profile for so many years, some people really think they are back!" Jiang Ye shook his head secretly as he walked along the streets of Chaos City.
Immediately, a trace of consciousness was separated to connect to the virtual universe.

Tongtianqiao plane.

Baffin, the steadfast defender of the beautiful island, has been waiting here silently for countless years. Suddenly, a figure appeared out of nowhere in the center of the island. It was Jiang Ye wearing black armor.

"Oh? Jiang Ye!" The defender Bafen smiled and walked over with a smile in his fiery red robe.

"My Lord Defender, it's been a long time since we last met. Your new robe makes you look very energetic." Jiang Ye raised the corners of his mouth, outlining a faint arc.

"Haha, time goes by, I can't always wear the same outfit." Baffin laughed heartily.

"I haven't seen you for a long time. You haven't come here since you passed the twelfth level of Tongtian Bridge. In the blink of an eye... almost a hundred years have passed. The members of the same batch of genius battles as you come to Tongtian Bridge every few years, if not every year. Only you and Luo Feng are the most patient." Bafen said with emotion.

"But you're still better! Luo Feng came to the Tongtian Bridge a few days ago! And he passed the seventh level. Wow, Luo Feng's speed of progress is really surprising!"

Luo Feng has passed the seventh level!

Listening to Baffin's words, Jiang Ye raised his brows slightly. He had been in the initial universe for ten years, which means more than thirty years in the original universe. Add on the fifty years he had been in the domain lord level, and it means that Luo Feng has almost come out of the Xueluo world!

"So, what's your plan this time? Are you planning to take down the 13th floor in one fell swoop? ... Or are you going to challenge the 14th floor?" Bafen stared at Jiang Ye with a burning gaze, his curiosity and expectation undisguised.

It becomes increasingly difficult to comprehend the laws as time goes by, and the difficulty level is even more exaggerated than an exponential curve.

Today, most of the eleven domain lord-level members of the original secret realm have spent tens of thousands of years and have only just managed to break through the tenth level.

Only Jiang Ye, this freak, who had practiced for just a hundred years, had left these geniuses carefully selected from the billions of human races far behind, leaving them far behind.

……

Although Baffin's words were full of expectation, deep down in his heart, he didn't believe that Jiang Ye could really do such a heaven-defying thing.

After all, the laws of the gatekeeper on the fourteenth floor of Tongtian Bridge are comparable to those of the peak Immortal Army Lord!

He has guarded the Tongtian Bridge for endless years and witnessed the rise and fall of countless geniuses. Even Kedi, who was also hailed as a peerless genius who appeared once in tens of millions of epochs, could not make it from the twelfth to the fourteenth floor of the Tongtian Bridge in a mere hundred years.

Jiang Ye just smiled lightly: "This time, it will definitely open your eyes!"

"Oh?" Baffin was slightly startled when he heard this, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Jiang Ye smiled, and turned into a stream of light and flew towards the bridge to the sky.

……

When Jiang Ye started to cross the sky bridge,

"The Master of Email" Baffin began his daily mass mailing operations.

"As expected of a genius who appears only once in tens of millions of years, there are many bigwigs paying attention to Jiang Ye." The Guardian Bafen muttered, "They all ordered me to notify them once Jiang Ye breaks into the Tongtian Bridge."

In an instant, hundreds of emails were sent out.

……

In a majestic and magnificent palace, Queen Longyu stood gracefully. She stretched out her crystal clear fingers like mutton-fat jade and lightly touched the void. Suddenly, a light flashed, and a curtain of light slowly emerged, with the icon of an email clearly visible.

"Jiang Ye broke into the Tongtian Bridge?" A strange smile of interest instantly appeared on King Longyu's beautiful face, and his red lips slightly opened.

"This little guy is just like the disciple of King Zhen Yan. He won't stop until he stuns people to death... Luo Feng successfully passed the seventh floor a few days ago, which was already surprising! I wonder what Jiang Ye is like?"

"In a hundred years, I don't know how many levels he can get through. The thirteenth level? Or... the incredible fourteenth level?" King Longyu smiled and immediately rushed to the Tongtian Bridge plane.

At this time, in a solemn mansion in Chaos City, King Zhen Yan was giving a lecture on the stage. He exuded a powerful and majestic aura that made people dare not look directly at him.

Suddenly, the smart assistant sounded in his ears, conveying the news that Jiang Ye was about to break through the overpass.

A ray of light suddenly flashed in King Zhenyan's deep eyes, and a trace of consciousness instantly separated and entered the virtual universe.

In the Tongtian Bridge plane, on a green island, King Zhenyan and a group of immortal gods whose auras were so powerful that even the space trembled gathered here.

"Haha, it's lively today. So many people are here." King Zhen Yan glanced around and his hearty laughter sounded like thunder.

At this time, Tongtian Bridge gathered a total of 156 immortal gods, more than half of them were king-level, and the rest were marquis-level. These 156 immortals arrived at the Tongtian Bridge plane space within ten seconds of each other.

“A genius that only appears once in tens of millions of epochs! I’ve been in this Chaos City for so long, but I’ve never met one. It’s so hard to have such a wonderful event to watch, so of course I have to take a good look at it!” A tall and burly man with golden eyes and a beard covered with golden needles on his face grinned.

"Yes, the days in this Chaos City are dull and boring day after day. I am almost going crazy with idleness. As soon as I learned that Jiang Ye was going to break through the Tongtian Bridge, I immediately ran to watch the live broadcast. I can't miss this good show." An Immortal King with a stern face echoed.

"That's right." The other kings and some dukes nodded in agreement.

For a moment, the atmosphere on the island became lively and harmonious.

King Zhenyan smiled and turned to look at King Longyu beside him. A mischievous light flashed in his eyes, and he teased: "Longyu, you see Jiang Ye has been accepted as a disciple by the city lord. Why don't you talk to the Nine Swords Master and ask him to consider Luo Feng? Don't wait until my disciple has made great achievements in the future and is poached by other big guys. That would be a big loss."

"It belongs to the Honorable One, and it will always belong to the Honorable One. No one can snatch it away." King Longyu's bright eyes slowly swept across the group of immortal gods around him, with confidence and calmness in his eyes.

This caused the surrounding immortal gods to burst into laughter, and the laughter echoed over the island for a long time.

Not only the five major forces of the human race, but also the cosmic masters within the virtual universe company are in fierce competition with each other.

With many powerful men under his command and a strong army, he is naturally full of confidence and his status is completely different.

Moreover, if they could recruit more peak immortal gods, perhaps one of these peak immortal gods would break through the shackles and become the supreme master of the universe, which would undoubtedly be a great boost to their power.

Therefore, the cosmic masters formed complicated factions by forming cliques and cliques.

After all, there are many things that the Universe Master is not convenient to do personally, so it is crucial to have capable and powerful generals under his command at this time.

As for where his strong men come from, of course, they are from discovering talents and taking them as disciples!
"It's very difficult to dig up ordinary immortal kings. When Luo Feng can reach the level of his teacher, King Zhenyan in the future." A woman wearing a black veil with a snake tail said with a smile, "Even the Nine Swords Venerable can't stop him. When the time comes, many venerables and kings will use their own methods to attract Luo Feng... It's hard to say who Luo Feng will not want to surrender to."

"You really have high hopes for Luo Feng." King Longyu looked over.

"Luo Feng can maintain such an amazing cultivation speed in the original universe. In my opinion, he does have the potential." The black-veiled woman responded with a smile, with a bit of appreciation in her eyes. "Forget it, forget it, everyone, stop discussing Luo Feng. Let's talk about which level Jiang Ye can break through this time." A white-haired but energetic marquis said loudly, breaking the discussion about Luo Feng and bringing the topic back to Jiang Ye.

"At least the thirteenth level! He had already passed the twelfth level when he left the initial universe. Although the thirteenth level is a big hurdle, Jiang Ye is, after all, a genius that only appears once in tens of millions of epochs." A red-faced king touched his chin and said thoughtfully.

"I think it must be the fourteenth level. Jiang Ye often shocked people in the initial universe."

"Well, in my opinion, it is probably the fourteenth floor."

"The thirteenth floor has reached the top! The original universe is only a hundred years old, it is unlikely that Jiang Ye can reach the fourteenth floor."

"The thirteenth floor."

"Maybe it's the fourteenth floor. Don't let your eyes pop out of your head when you get there."

"King Zhenyan, tell me."

A large group of kings and marquises all represented the venerable ones of the universe. Even if those marquises might not be strong, as long as they could be accepted as confidants, their strength and status would not be much different...so everyone talked happily.

"It seems that the majority believe that those on the thirteenth floor are the most likely to be there." King Zhen Yan smiled and looked at the people around him, "Everyone just watch! Oh, the battle has begun!"

Then all 156 immortal gods turned to look at the screen.

On the screen, Jiang Ye had just flown to the end of the thirteenth floor of Tongtian Bridge. After exchanging some words with his opponent in red who was transformed from a meteorite, he started to engage in battle.

One move and it's over.

Passed the thirteenth floor!
"I killed the opponent on the thirteenth level in seconds. I think I can definitely pass the fourteenth level."

"Um……"

156 immortal gods watched the screen and commented, but soon they fell silent.

……

The opponent on the fourteenth floor of Tongtian Bridge still uses the laws of time and space in the fifth picture, but unlike the gatekeeper on the thirteenth floor, he uses these laws of time and space more flexibly.

Jiang Ye did not hold back, and did not even give him a chance to speak, and directly sealed his throat.

The fourteenth floor, also killed instantly, passed!
The large group of immortal gods who gathered were silent, staring at the screen in shock, their eyes full of horror and disbelief.

Is it possible?
Only a hundred years had passed in the original universe, and the strength had leapt from "breaking through the twelfth level of the Tongtian Bridge" to "breaking through the fourteenth level of the Tongtian Bridge", and it had even crushed the gatekeeper of the fourteenth level.

"sky."

"How can it be?"

"How can he improve so fast? Not to mention that he is at the Domain Lord level. Even if he is at the Realm Lord level, it is impossible for him to improve so much continuously in just a hundred years after comprehending the Chaos Monument at the beginning of the universe."

"horrible!"

"terrible."

All of these kings and dukes were shocked. Jiang Ye's speed of improvement had surpassed the category of "unparalleled genius" and even the first definition of "evildoer". It should be said that he was... a monster! A monster of unparalleled genius that was beyond people's imagination and transcended the normal rules of development!
Back then, Ke Di…the cosmic level, domain master level, and realm master level all successfully broke through the original Tongtian Mountain. Moreover, when he was at the peak of the realm master level, he was comparable to the immortal king, and at the same time he could kill the immortal marquis level!
In their eyes, it is already a monster!
But Jiang Ye at this time is even more monstrous than Ke Di of the same period. It took him a hundred years to break through the twelfth floor to the fourteenth floor. It is so terrifying!
"Could it be possible that he could pass through the fifteenth floor of Tongtian Bridge?"

"In just a hundred years, is it possible that comprehending the laws is as easy as drinking water for him? How is that possible? There must be a limit."

"I have carefully read the information of those peerless geniuses in human history who only appear once every tens of millions of epochs. The fastest one of them took a full thousand years to break through from the twelfth level to the sixteenth level of Tongtian Bridge, and eight hundred years of that time was spent on intensive cultivation in the initial universe. And now, Jiang Ye has only used a hundred years to match the thousands of years of hard training of those peerless geniuses in the past! This is simply incredible!"

At this moment, these immortal gods all held their breath. There was a dead silence on the island of Tongtian Bridge plane. No one made a sound. Everyone stared at the screen intently, afraid to miss any wonderful moment that was about to happen.

"The fifteenth floor!" Jiang Ye looked into the distance calmly.

"Boom boom..." The bridge deck, which had already reached the end, continued to extend into the star...

The tenth, eleventh, and twelfth levels are respectively fought in the star core, magma layer, and surface of a planet.

The so-called three levels and one level.

The thirteenth to fifteenth levels move the battlefield to the stars.

The interior of the stellar flame... going deeper and deeper into the sea of fire.

Although it was extremely hot, it was nothing for a Domain Lord of the ninth level physical fitness.

After all, the flying speed of the ninth level of Domain Lord can exceed ten thousand kilometers per second, and even the cosmic level can fight on white dwarfs, so one can imagine the physical strength of the ninth level of Domain Lord.

"Chichichi..."

There were endless flames all around. The fifteenth floor Tongtian Bridge had reached its end, and Jiang Ye was standing at the end of the Tongtian Bridge.

"Choose your opponent, a warrior, a controller, or an illusionist. Choose one and defeat him to pass the fifteenth level." A low, rumbling voice came from the entire star.

"Warrior." Jiang Ye said calmly.

"boom!"

In an instant, the blazing flames burning on the surface of the star suddenly erupted into a huge ball of flame. This ball of flame seemed to be pulled by an invisible giant hand and floated directly above the Tongtian Bridge. Then it quickly condensed and turned into a man wearing a fiery red battle armor and a mask.

His armor shone with a fiery light, his fiery red hair danced in the wind, and in his hand he held a sword that was exactly the same as Jiang Ye's. His golden eyes stared at Jiang Ye closely.

"A domain lord has reached the fifteenth level. Do you know how long it has been since I encountered this?" The flame armor man said to Jiang Ye with a strange light flashing in his golden eyes.

"Don't worry, it won't be long before someone comes to challenge you!" Jiang Ye raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a meaningful smile, and said softly.

"boom!"

Before he finished speaking, both parties moved almost at the same time. In an instant, time and space seemed to be pulled by a powerful force, and the figures of the two people instantly crossed and fought!
嗤

The sound of metal colliding rang out in this flame-filled space.
