Swallowed Star: Primordial Artifact

Chapter 303 Powerful Alien Race

"Time Cocoon, hurry up and mature! I've been guarding my territory for five thousand epochs." The alien powerhouse's face was filled with anticipation.

Whoosh!
The alien powerhouse darted into the mountain's belly like a shooting star, his divine body rapidly expanding to its original massive size. However, the instant he stepped into the mountain's belly and his divine body expanded, astonishment instantly filled his face. He stared in disbelief at a young man clad in golden armor and a silver robe standing quietly at the edge of the Three Extremes Abyss.

At the same time, Jiang Ye keenly sensed something was amiss. He slowly turned around, his gaze calm as still water, yet containing endless depth, to meet the other person's astonished eyes.

"Human!" The alien race recognized Jiang Ye's race at a glance, and roared, as if squeezing out a single word through gritted teeth: "Die!"

The alien powerhouse's gaze sharpened.
"Buzz~~~" The space was sealed off, and the surrounding spatial fluctuations suddenly stopped completely.

The entire mountainside instantly fell into a state of deathly stillness.

kill!

The alien powerhouse was in a terrible mood. This human, who had appeared out of nowhere, had actually broken into Cone Mountain. Who could guarantee that he hadn't leaked the news of this place? Although, according to common sense, powerful people wouldn't easily reveal the news when they encountered such a special treasure, there was still a risk that the news might leak out if this human had left behind some secret methods and was resurrected in the future.

This Time Chrysalis was something his master had intended, and he had guarded it for five thousand epochs.

Now, at this crucial moment when the Time Chrysalis is about to be born, such a change has occurred. If the master finds out, let alone rewarding him with great treasures, he will probably suffer extremely severe punishment.

Thinking of this, the starlight on the alien powerhouse became even more dazzling, and his seven pairs of semi-transparent wings unfolded like a blooming nebula. A powerful and suffocating sense of oppression spread wildly from him, and the space inside the mountain was slightly distorted like fragile glass under the ravages of this power.

"So strong." Jiang Ye was secretly amazed. With just this casual move, he had a rough idea of ​​the strength of the alien race in front of him.

The true invincible king, the alien race before them, far surpassed the Black-shaved King and the Fallen King in strength, but was not a cosmic venerable.

"Soul control, annihilation." The alien powerhouse suddenly turned its head, one of its eyes, glowing with mysterious starlight, staring intently at Jiang Ye, and instantly unleashed the soul control technique.

In his view, only by completely controlling or destroying Jiang Ye's soul could the possibility of information leakage be eliminated.

The ethereal divine power instantly attacked Jiang Ye.

However, this powerful attack was like a gentle breeze to Jiang Ye. Jiang Ye's figure swayed, and he retreated rapidly backward.

At the same time, they carefully observed the alien in the distance. Although the figure resembled a human, it was over a hundred meters tall. A vast and dazzling band of light, like the Milky Way, flowed around its body. Seven pairs of semi-transparent wings spread out like nebulae. Each gentle flap of the wings stirred up tiny fragments of spacetime, creating a dreamlike and illusory scene.

His face, with its liquid metallic texture and ever-changing facial features, defies easy categorization using any racial characteristics recognized by humans.

Jiang Ye's consciousness instantly connected to the virtual universe, but he found no information about the alien race in front of him.

When the alien powerhouse saw that the soul control technique had failed, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, which was then replaced by a burning rage.

"You human, you do have some tricks up your sleeve!" he roared angrily.

"Such a powerful soul attack! Is it a secret technique or a treasured soul artifact?" With the Xuanhuang Pagoda Bead present, soul attacks were completely useless against Jiang Ye, but he was still somewhat surprised by the oppressive feeling of the soul attack he had just witnessed.

Based on his judgment, the power of that soul attack far exceeded that of any of his subordinates who were at the pinnacle of soul mastery, even when they burned their divine power to perform a soul technique.

"Tianyu Mingci!" The Starlight Alien suddenly let out a deep roar, like an enraged prehistoric beast, charging fiercely towards Jiang Ye. His feet stomped heavily on the void, as if to shatter the space itself; instantly, the void exploded, and lightning bolts shot out wildly.

What surprised Jiang Ye even more was the extremely strange speed of this alien race. Sometimes it would suddenly become dozens of times faster than lightning, and other times it would suddenly slow down. With this unpredictable change in the flow of time, before Jiang Ye could react, the Starlight Alien had already appeared in front of him like a ghost.

hum...

The seven pairs of semi-transparent wings behind the Starlight Alien instantly exploded, and feather-like transparent blades combined like nimble elves, instantly condensing into a huge drill that gleamed with a chilling light.

The feather blade exudes a chilling aura, and the secret patterns flowing on it reveal a mysterious and ancient charm, clearly indicating that it is a powerful treasure.

Without a second thought, Jiang Ye instinctively unleashed his strongest defensive technique.

In an instant, a dazzling, colorful dragon armor spread rapidly from his body, like an indestructible barrier.

The attack from the Starlight Alien—the Heavenly Feather Dawn Strike—slammed into the colorful dragon armor with earth-shattering power. In an instant, light burst forth, as if the entire mountainside was illuminated by millions of stars simultaneously, the intense light blinding everyone.

The immense impact caused the space inside the mountain to distort even more violently, and the surrounding rocks crumbled off, turning into dust that drifted into the air.

The light dimmed slightly, and the Devouring Abyss Sword in Jiang Ye's hand erupted with a dazzling cold light.

"Flowing Wind Sweeps Through the Sky!" Jiang Ye roared, unleashing his ultimate secret technique. His figure moved like lightning, instantly transforming into a series of afterimages, rapidly spinning around the Starlight Alien Race.

Each afterimage carried a sharp sword shadow, as if countless sharp blades were slicing towards the Starlight Alien Race.

This Flowing Wind and Sky-Drifting Secret Technique was created by Jiang Ye in Chaos City. After his continuous study and improvement, although it is still at its peak level, its true power has increased several times over compared to the original.

The Starlight Alien felt the sharp sword energy rushing towards them, and a hint of surprise appeared in their eyes.

He truly hadn't expected that the human before him would not only successfully block his incredibly powerful Heavenly Feather Dawn Strike, but also launch a swift counterattack in such a short time.

However, this surprise only lingered in his eyes for a moment.

The alien star creature showed no fear in the face of Jiang Ye's fierce counterattack. A smile flickered across its liquid-metal-like face.

Suddenly, the galactic light bands on the Starlight Alien's body shone brightly, as if gathering the power of the entire galaxy.

The ribbons of light, like nimble giant pythons, coiled around Jiang Ye's afterimage. Each ribbon contained immense power, colliding with Jiang Ye's Devouring Abyss Sword and producing a series of crisp, explosive sounds.

"A binding treasure!" Jiang Ye was startled upon sensing the immense power of the light band and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Hmph, human, prepare to die?" The Starlight Alien sneered. The drill formed from its shattered wings flashed with a chilling light once more, stabbing fiercely towards Jiang Ye. This time, the space around the drill was twisted into a spiral shape, as if it wanted to crush and devour everything.

Jiang Ye gripped the Devouring Abyss Sword tightly, his eyes revealing determination. Facing the spinning, snarling drill, he swung his sword without hesitation.

The Devouring Abyss Sword collided with the drill that emitted a chilling light, the powerful impact causing the normally stable space around the Three Extremes Abyss to emit a sharp whistling sound. However, the strength of the Starlight Alien was too great, and this powerful treasure formed from wings was even more astonishing.

Despite Jiang Ye's best efforts, the Devouring Abyss Sword in his hand gradually began to tremble, and his arm went slightly numb due to the enormous recoil.

"Such powerful strength! The genetic level of this alien race is definitely more than ten times higher. It must be some kind of special life form."

In this brief exchange, Jiang Ye could clearly sense that the Starlight Alien's divine power was incredibly strong. Its basic divine power alone was more than ten million times that of a World Lord, and coupled with its divine power amplification techniques... its attack power was definitely superior to that of a true invincible King like Zhenyan King.

Jiang Ye gritted his teeth. The moment he felt the Devouring Abyss Sword tremble, the power of a world lord, multiplied by millions of times, granted by the golden armor, erupted instantly. Using the force of the drill impact, he propelled his body backward, skillfully changing his angle and using the reaction force to quickly approach the Starlight Alien Race.

"Hmph!" The Starlight Alien saw through Jiang Ye's intention and snorted coldly.

It manipulated the galactic light bands that resembled giant pythons, and several of them instantly detached and coiled towards Jiang Ye like lightning, attempting to prevent him from getting closer.

Just as those few streaks of light from the Milky Way were flashing towards him like lightning, Jiang Ye activated his supreme treasure domain—the Flowing Light Gale Domain—without hesitation.

In an instant, centered on Jiang Ye, a violent and fierce gale energy surged forth, transforming into streaks of azure light that swept in all directions.

The power released by this Flowing Light Gale Domain instantly enveloped the surrounding space, allowing Jiang Ye to control everything in this void.

boom……

The galactic light bands that coiled like giant pythons encountered this gust of wind energy the moment they hit an invisible yet incredibly resilient wall. Their momentum abruptly halted, as if they were being forcefully pulled back by an invisible hand.

Taking advantage of this gap, Jiang Ye used the power of the Flowing Light Gale Domain to move like a ghost through the gaps in the light bands.

His speed was so great that, carried by the gale, he almost became a blur, making it difficult for even the Starlight Alien race to catch his trail.

"This is a domain! This human actually possesses a domain-type treasure!" Upon seeing this, the Starlight Alien's eyes flashed with surprise and greed.

It intensified its control over the Milky Way's light bands. The light bands that were originally wrapping around Jiang Ye shone even brighter, attempting to break through the barrier of the Flowing Light Gale Domain and continue to bind Jiang Ye. At the same time, other light bands also surged towards Jiang Ye, trying to trap him completely within them.

While dodging the attacks from the light bands, Jiang Ye unleashed the full power of the Flowing Light Gale Domain.

The gale energy within the domain was like a pack of ferocious beasts, constantly assaulting the galactic light bands that tried to approach.

In this fierce clash, the point where the light band collided with the gale constantly erupted with dazzling light and intense energy fluctuations.

"Hmph, die!" Jiang Ye roared, and the Devouring Abyss Sword in his hand, enhanced by the Flowing Light Gale Domain, unleashed an even greater speed.

The faster the speed, the stronger the attack.

Jiang Ye seized the opportunity and swung the Devouring Abyss Sword fiercely. A massive sword aura, imbued with the wind and the fundamental laws of time, roared out and slashed towards the Starlight Alien Race. This sword aura was extremely fast; wherever it passed, space seemed to be torn apart, emitting a piercing sound.

The alien star creature tried to dodge, but was tightly entangled by Jiang Ye's Flowing Light Gale Domain.

Just as Jiang Ye thought he had succeeded, a hazy silver halo suddenly appeared around the Starlight Alien. This halo rippled out like water and strangely resonated with the power of the surrounding space.

The Starlight Alien race, which was originally bound, managed to break free of some of its restraints by using this resonance power.

"laugh!"

At the same time, the drill made up of countless transparent wings in the distance appeared out of thin air in front of Jiang Ye, as if it had teleported instantly.

It should be noted that the surrounding space has been sealed off, and Jiang Yeliuguang's Gale Domain also covers it. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to teleport. Obviously, this Starlight Alien in front of us either has reached an extremely terrifying level of mastery over time flow, or he possesses a time-related talent secret technique.

Jiang Ye inwardly cried out in alarm and quickly tried to dodge.

But suddenly—

An invisible wave swept by like a ghost, and Jiang Ye immediately felt as if he were bound by an invisible shackle, his whole body frozen in mid-air, unable to move.

"Time stops."

"I'm hit!"

"How pathetic, how lamentable." The alien starlight race in the distance sighed, and the transparent drill floating in mid-air pierced directly at Jiang Ye.

"Broken! Broken! Broken!"

Jiang Ye's will was like a burning flame, roaring wildly in his consciousness.

He channeled all his power, and the starry cloak behind him, the Devouring Abyss Sword in his palm, and the King Soul within his soul all seemed to sense their master's will and trembled. Nourished by the Xuanhuang Tower Pearls, Jiang Ye's will had become comparable to that of a Universe Venerable.

With his struggle, he broke free from the restraints almost instantly.

"Break through!!!" Jiang Ye roared, and the Devouring Abyss Sword suddenly blocked the transparent drill that had already pierced through.

A terrifying impact force acted through the Devouring Abyss Sword on Jiang Ye's entire body, causing him to be thrown far away.

……

Jiang Ye was sent flying backward, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "What a powerful alien race! They have mastered both the laws of time and the laws of space, and their mastery of the laws of time is in no way inferior to their mastery of the laws of space."

"He was quite far away from me just now. To be able to use time stop from such a distance and affect me... Moreover, this alien has several powerful treasures on him. What is his background... Of all the alien powerhouses I've encountered on the extraterrestrial battlefield, none are as strong as him." Many thoughts flashed through Jiang Ye's mind, and he was filled with doubts about this mysterious alien powerhouse.

Common sense dictates that such a powerful figure on an extraterritorial battlefield could not possibly go unnoticed.
