Swallowed Star: Primordial Artifact

Chapter 297 Forbidden Domain
Unlike Jiang Ye, who had already figured out the reason, the Tower Dragon King was completely gripped by fear.

"Human, what kind of treasure are you using? What... what kind of power is that?" The Dragon King's voice trembled slightly.

He believed that Jiang Ye had used some kind of soul-type treasure.

After all, there is no such thing as bloodline suppression in this world.

Jiang Ye ignored the Tower Dragon King's question, instead keenly sensing the other's increasingly weak aura, his mind racing.

Under normal circumstances, even if Jiang Ye succeeded in obtaining the Devouring Abyss Sword, it would probably take dozens of sword strikes to extinguish 1% of the divine power of the massive Tower Dragon King. However, now he extinguished nearly 10% of its divine power with a single sword strike.

It should be noted that the Tower Dragon King's divine body reached a height of tens of kilometers, and 10% of its divine power was far greater than that of a normal human king, yet it was easily annihilated by Jiang Ye's sword.

This was clearly the effect of the bloodline suppression, increasing the damage Jiang Ye inflicted on the Tower Dragon King by thousands of times.

"I never imagined that the power of the Ancestral Dragon's bloodline could have such an effect!" Jiang Ye thought to himself.

"If that's the case, we should first severely injure the Tower Dragon King, and then summon the Ancestral Dragon's clone. With its purer bloodline power, it might be possible to directly enslave the Tower Dragon King."

Just as Jiang Ye was pondering, the terrified Tower Dragon King did not hesitate at all, and a layer of strange and scorching red flames quickly surged around his body.

His massive body, enveloped in flames, hurtled towards Black Shaved King and Fallen King like a giant meteor that had gone off track.

When Black Shaved King and Fallen King saw the Tower Dragon King in such a disheveled state from afar, they didn't stop to rest. They exchanged a glance and saw shock in each other's eyes.

Without daring to delay for even a moment, they immediately sped towards the deeper reaches of the Morning Sands Starfield.

"Trying to escape? Not so easy!" Jiang Ye's eyes sharpened, and he snorted coldly. The azure aura beneath his feet suddenly burst forth, and he chased after the enemy like a bolt of lightning.

At the same time, he manipulated the wind blades within the Flowing Light Gale Domain, which attacked the three of them like a sky full of cold light.

Jiang Ye pursued, while Ta Longwang and his group fled.

One chase and three escapes
They traversed layer after layer of star sand belts, continuously venturing deeper into the heart of the Morning Sand Starfield.

At this moment, Jiang Ye noticed something strange—with each zone of star sand he passed through, the flow of time accelerated, and space itself began to distort in a bizarre way.

The original repulsive force has somehow transformed into a terrifyingly powerful gravitational force, its strength no less than that of a supermassive black hole in the universe.

Jiang Ye's Flowing Light Gale Domain was the first to be affected. The originally agile and powerful wind blades became unusually heavy. The azure halo also began to flicker. Although the domain's range did not shrink significantly, the consumption of cosmic crystals in Jiang Ye's inner world was increasing at an exponential rate.

"Hmm? Such strong gravity. It seems they want to use the gravity of the Morning Sand Starfield to escape my domain!" Jiang Ye watched as the Tower Dragon King and his group flew deeper into the Morning Sand Starfield.

Jiang Ye was unconcerned about the plans of the King of Destiny and his group. Even without using the Flowing Light Gale Domain, he was absolutely confident that he could kill them.

……

"What secrets are hidden deep within this Morning Sand Starfield...?" Feeling an intense thirst coursing through every cell in his body, Jiang Ye's doubts deepened.

…………

"Look, they're flying towards the forbidden zone of the Morning Sand Starfield!"

"Look! They're flying towards the forbidden zone of the Morning Sand Starfield!"

"The depths of this Morning Sand Starfield are mysterious and unpredictable. To this day, no one who has been sucked in by that gravity has come out alive."

"Yes, they've already ventured deep into the Abyss Forbidden Zone. The gravity there is extremely strong; escaping easily is no simple matter. Yet they actually went in on their own initiative!"

The powerful figures from the surrounding factions all stopped their pursuit and chose to observe from a distance. They whispered among themselves, speculating about the final outcome of the chase.

……

As he flew, the King of Destiny anxiously transmitted his voice to the Dragon King and the Black-Shaving King, saying, "We can't go any further! If we go any deeper, we will be completely swallowed up by this terrifying gravity. Even if we manage to escape the King of Gold-Slaying, we will surely die!"

King Talong's expression was solemn. He looked at the constantly distorting space around him and felt the increasingly powerful gravity. He understood that what King Mingyun said was absolutely true.

"Hmm, the power of this wind blade has decreased. It seems that the gravity here is effective against him!" Black Shave King exclaimed with delight, sensing the azure aura surrounding him.

The King of Destiny transmitted his voice, "Then let's make our move right here!"

Black Shaved King and Tower Dragon King took a deep breath and nodded.

They quickly stopped their escape and formed a triangular formation in the gravity-ravaged area, surrounding Jiang Ye in the middle.

"Finally you're not running away anymore? Do you think this environment is perfect as your graveyard?" Jiang Ye sneered.

King of Destiny snorted coldly, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, and said loudly, "Hmph, King of Gold Slayer, don't be too arrogant. You really dare to chase after me. The more you resist the gravity in the depths of the Morning Sand Starfield, the stronger it will become. How long can your domain last? I advise you to put it away as soon as possible, so as to save some divine power for your clone!"

"Alright, then I'll put it away!" Jiang Ye waved his hand without hesitation, instantly canceling the Flowing Light Gale Domain.

This sudden action left the Fallen King and the others momentarily bewildered. However, before they could react—

"Roar!"

A dragon's roar that shook the universe suddenly resounded, and a huge divine dragon slowly emerged from the distorted space, its body radiating a dazzling golden light, each dragon scale resembling a continent.

Its eyes are like two golden suns, radiating endless majesty as it looks down upon all things in the world.

The dragon's body, stretching tens of thousands of kilometers long, merely appeared and caused the surrounding space to creak and groan under its strain.

The moment the Dragon King saw the avatar of the Ancestral Dragon, the fear in his heart surged like a flood bursting its banks.

The oppressive feeling emanating from the depths of his bloodline grew stronger, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

His body trembled violently and uncontrollably, and his divine power was in complete disarray.

"That fear is back! And it's even stronger! What... what is this..." King Talong tried his best to stabilize the divine power within his body, but it was all in vain, because just one glance at the creature in front of him was enough to make him feel a strong sense of submission.

He couldn't muster any strength at all.

Jiang Ye stood atop the Ancestral Dragon's clone, his expression cold and stern, looking down at the Tower Dragon King like a supreme ruler.

Black Shaved King and Fallen King watched from afar, stunned by the appearance of the Ancestral Dragon's clone.

Even though they had traversed the universe for billions of years and seen countless strange and exotic creatures, they had never seen such a creature before.

"What kind of creature is this? Such a massive divine body, even those cosmic behemoths are far inferior to it!" Black-Shaving King's eyes widened as he stared intently at the Ancestral Dragon's avatar. "Could this creature be the avatar of the Gold-Slaying King?" Black-Shaving King said.

However, this conjecture was quickly refuted by the King of Fate.

“It can’t be a clone; its aura is completely different from that of the King of Killing Gold,” said the King of Destiny, shaking his head.

"If it's not a clone, could it be a powerful ally Jiang Ye has befriended? But how could such a powerful being easily obey the orders of the King of Killing Gold?" Black Shave King frowned and pondered.

"Judging from its appearance, it must be some kind of powerful special life form. But how could such a creature be hiding in the World Ring of the King of Gold Slayers? Could it be a soul servant?" King of Destiny asked, his face full of doubt.

The aura of the Ancestral Dragon's clone was different from that of his human self, so Jiang Ye was not worried that these alien races could see through the true relationship between the Ancestral Dragon's clone and him. They would only think that he was enslaved by the King of Killing Gold or that this special life was given to him by one of the King of Killing Gold's powerful teachers to protect him.

……

The ancestral dragon's avatar roared to the sky, its sound like thunder, resounding throughout the universe.

Talong King felt an irresistible pressure rushing towards him, as if it would shatter his soul.

He mustered his will and tried to resist this power, but under the suppression of the bloodline of the Ancestral Dragon's clone, his resistance seemed so futile.

After the Ancestral Dragon's clone roared to the sky, its enormous dragon body twisted slightly in the air, its golden light becoming increasingly dazzling, as if it were accumulating some kind of world-destroying power.

Instantly, eighteen black spheres began to rotate in the void, their engraved law patterns faintly glowing with a faint golden light. Under the guidance of the powerful will of the Ancestral Dragon Avatar, which was even stronger than that of most of the universe's Venerables, the primordial laws of the universe were activated, and in an instant, a dragon claw phantom thousands of miles long was formed.

The phantom of the dragon claw overlapped with the dragon claw of the Ancestral Dragon's clone, and together they pressed down hard on the Tower Dragon King.

However, the dragon claw phantom formed by these eighteen sealing stars is actually a telekinetic weapon. As a "treasure" of telekinetic weapons, how astonishing is its flight speed?

brush!
They had already reached the Tower Dragon King. At this moment, the Tower Dragon King's divine body was as if it were carrying a thousand pounds of weight, unable to move an inch, and could only watch helplessly as the five claw-like rays attacked.

But his survival instinct compelled him to unleash his last ounce of strength, straining with all his might to activate his most famous treasure—the Chifeng Pagoda.

Suddenly, a layer of mottled, ancient red pagoda appeared on the surface of the Tower Dragon King's body. The bell was covered with dense, mysterious characters, which Jiang Ye at least did not recognize.

The pagoda exuded a chilling aura.

Wow!
The pagoda that appeared on the surface of his scales suddenly grew larger, flew up, and rapidly expanded before suddenly covering the area!
With a deafening roar, it seemed as if the entire universe trembled.

Before the colossal claw that stretched for tens of thousands of miles, the Tower Dragon King's massive divine body, spanning tens of miles, was like an ant, even as he activated the powerful Baby Tower to protect himself at the last moment.

However, due to the suppression of his bloodline, the power that the Talon King used was less than one percent of his full strength.

"No!" King Talong roared in despair, watching helplessly as his prized treasure was about to shatter under the attack of the Ancestral Dragon's avatar. But it was all too late to turn back.

With a "crack," the crack on the red pagoda quickly spread.

boom……

The pagoda shattered completely, turning into countless red fragments that dissipated into the void.

Without the protection of the pagoda, the Tower Dragon King was directly exposed to the attack of the Mystic Ancestral Dragon's avatar's claws.

The dragon claws slammed mercilessly towards the Tower Dragon King.

Under this powerful impact, the Talon King's divine body shattered instantly, forming a huge blood mist in the void, which then reformed.

However, the condensed aura of the Tower Dragon King became extremely weak, with less than 25% of its divine power remaining.

However, under the suppression of the bloodline of the Ancestral Dragon's clone, the Tower Dragon King completely lost the ability to resist, and his consciousness began to gradually become blurred.

Seeing this, Jiang Ye seized the opportunity to kill him while he was still ill, immediately using the secret soul technique "Dragon Eye Soul-Capturing Technique".

His eyes instantly transformed into a dazzling gold, mirroring the eyes of the Ancestral Dragon's avatar. A mysterious and powerful soul force surged forth from his eyes, shooting straight towards the Tower Dragon King like an invisible arrow.

The Dragon King was already in a daze and was powerless to resist this sudden soul attack.

The power of the soul passed through his already riddled body with impunity, directly targeting his sea of ​​consciousness. Within his sea of ​​consciousness, this power of the soul transformed into a golden dragon, baring its fangs and claws as it lunged at the Tower Dragon King's soul.

The soul of the Talon King trembled in terror within his sea of ​​consciousness, emitting a series of mournful roars.

He attempted to gather his remaining soul power to resist, but under the influence of the bloodline of the ancestral dragon's avatar, part of his soul actually willingly accepted Jiang Ye's soul enslavement.

"Collect." Jiang Ye immediately took the Tower Dragon King, which was now powerless to resist, into one of his own separate world rings.

Although the fight was brief, it was actually extremely fast. To the Black-Shaving King and the Fallen King who were watching from the sidelines, the Ancestral Dragon's clone killed the nearly invincible Tower Dragon King in just two moves after it appeared, causing him to fall into a deep sleep.

That's terrifying! You have to understand what kind of power it takes to kill a powerful being like the Tower Dragon King and put him into a deep sleep.

"How is this possible? It annihilated most of the Tower Dragon King's divine body with a single blow, causing it to fall into a deep sleep. Could this creature possess the combat power of a Universe Venerable?"

At this moment, a terrifying thought lingered in the minds of both the Fallen King and the Black-Shaving King.

"Run!" "Run!"

Without any communication, Black Shaved King and Fallen King roared inwardly, each wishing they could teleport.

Jiang Ye's eyes turned cold as he stood atop the Ancestral Dragon's clone and coldly shouted, "Trying to leave? Not so easy!"

The ancestral dragon's avatar roared, and eighteen sealing stars traced mysterious trajectories in the void. Golden dragon breath, carrying a world-destroying pressure, burst forth.

The golden dragon breath surged like a torrent, but just as it was about to touch Black Shaved King and Fallen King, the entire space suddenly twisted into a spiral shape in a bizarre way.

At the same time, a deafening roar came from the depths of the Morning Sand Starfield, as if the foundation of the universe was collapsing.

The forbidden space where Jiang Ye was located began to twist wildly, and countless pitch-black cracks spread out like a spider web.

An unimaginable, terrifying gravitational force erupted from the depths of the forbidden zone, instantly tearing apart star fragments and turning them into cosmic dust wherever it passed.

Jiang Ye's expression changed drastically, and he decisively stored the Ancestral Dragon's clone into his World Ring.

A surge of immense power coursed through his body, activating the supreme treasure, the Flowing Light Gale Disc, in his right palm. A brilliant blue light shone from his body, and the Flowing Light Gale Domain unfolded with a thunderous roar.

The edge of the domain collided violently with the terrifying gravity, emitting a piercing shriek, and the cyan halo was twisted and deformed under the tearing force of gravity.
