Swallowed Star: The Original Secret Realm

Chapter 258 Frozen Wave Prison! The Northern Army!

In the world of Jin, on that majestic and endless mountain peak, Zhang Yi stood, gazing into the distance.

"We'll have to wait for the second version. Even if we have to reveal part of our strength, we still have to pass the test." There was a hint of determination and anticipation in his eyes.

Whether or not he could go to the Origin Continent to cultivate was extremely important to him.

If they could go to the Origin Continent, even without any other resources, the ability to clearly comprehend the laws of chaos would be something that these beings from the three thousand-dimensional primordial universe would envy the most.

It can be said that those who can independently become true gods in the three-thousand-dimensional universe, if placed on the Origin Continent with a slightly similar lineage, would not find it difficult to become true gods of the void, and with a large amount of resources poured in, they might even have a slight chance of becoming eternal true gods.

Collecting his thoughts, Zhang Yi spotted three figures in the distance and flew towards them at top speed.

……

On the desolate plains, a strange beast with eight hooves and four heads fell to the ground, its massive body devoid of any life.

"Big brother, he's dead! We've finally killed him!" a young man with six antennae on his head exclaimed excitedly.

The blond, burly man standing to the side also had a smile on his face.

"We've killed another beast that is a master of the laws. This mission is now complete. We can at least relax for an era."

Whoosh! The blond, burly man waved his hand, collecting the beast's corpse. He looked around and said in a low voice:
"Rambo, hurry up and go. We're venturing into the territory of the alien beasts. The battle just now could easily attract the true god of the alien beasts."

The young man named Lambo quickly nodded.

Swish!
Just as the two were about to leave, a figure flew in from a distance at lightning speed and soon arrived in front of them.

This is a man wearing silver armor, and judging from his aura, he is also a Lord of Laws.

The blond man greeted him with a smile: "Brother, my name is Lan Shuo. Are you also here on a military mission?"

“This is my younger brother, Lambo. We are from the same tribe.”

“Time and space,” Zhang Yi said with a smile, though he was a little surprised.

At the summit, he clearly sensed the battle taking place through the fluctuations in spacetime.

He originally thought the two men were warriors from a nearby tribe, but he never expected them to be soldiers.

However, judging from their strength, they are just ordinary soldiers.

"Are you two from the Northern Army? I'm an ascetic, and I'm planning to join the army." Zhang Yi looked at them.

The four humans who entered the Jin world this time, under Zhang Yi's deliberate guidance, entered from four different directions.

Luo Feng naturally entered from the east, Giant Axe from the west, and Wild Mirror from the south.

He entered from the north himself.

After hearing Zhang Yi say that he was just an ascetic and wanted to join the army.

The burly man, Lan Shuo, said enthusiastically, "Brother Shi Kong, we are soldiers of the Northern Army. We left the army's base this time to complete a military mission."

"We've just finished our mission and are planning to return to the Northern Army. Why don't you come with us? Otherwise, it's quite dangerous for you to go alone."

Lanbo, standing to the side, looked rather unnatural, and he even used his divine sense to transmit his thoughts:

"Brother, we're still within the territory of the alien beasts, and it's fraught with danger. Why bring a burden along?"

"Besides, he doesn't seem to know anything. If he stays here, he can buy us some time in case a powerful beast comes to investigate."

"Otherwise, joining the army will only lead to your demise. Is the army so easy to join?"

Lambo couldn't help but recall the scene when he joined the army. If it weren't for his older brother helping him at a crucial moment, he would have perished that time.

The failure rate for first-time recruits in the army is very high, and he didn't believe that the silver-armored man in front of him could pass the test.

"Lanbo, you're just too scheming. That's why your strength hasn't improved much over the long years," Lan Shuo replied telepathically. "As for the Time-Space Brothers, I find them very agreeable and would never leave them here alone."

After saying that, Lan Shuo ignored Lan Bo and said directly, "Time-space brothers, let's go quickly."

Zhang Yi nodded; he could naturally tell that the two had been communicating telepathically using divine power.

Looking at the attitudes of these two people, he naturally understood.

"This Lan Shuo is not bad, as for that Lan Bo..."

The three flew towards the Northern Army in mid-air.

In the air, Lan Shuo's voice held a hint of doubt: "Brother Shi Kong, the area we are in now is within the territory of the alien beasts. We had no choice but to take great risks and sneak into this place to hunt the alien beasts and complete our military mission. Why are you here?"

Why would I be here?

Zhang Yi shook his head and then asked, "You said this is the territory of the alien beasts? Which faction, and how strong are they?"

Lan Shuo was taken aback, and Lan Bo, who was not far away, also showed a hint of pride and glanced at his older brother.

He thought to himself, "This guy is a greenhorn who doesn't know anything and just runs around aimlessly, even thinking about joining the army."

“Brother Shikong, what can I say? You don’t even know whose territory this is, yet you dare to barge in?” Lan Shuo was also helpless, but still explained, “This is a beast force called Frozen Wave Prison. This force has a Void True God, and there are tens of thousands of True Gods. As for the Lords of Laws, they are countless.”

"This time, I brought Lambo here at great risk and killed two Lords of the Laws of Beasts."

"This is still the most common and simplest task in the army."

Lan Shuo sighed.

Lambo suddenly interjected, "Brother, you're too modest. Even among the countless Law Masters in the army, you're considered extremely outstanding."

As he spoke, he deliberately said to Zhang Yi, "Let me tell you, my older brother has completed two 'disaster-level' missions, and his strength is comparable to that of a true god."

“Disaster-level missions are extremely difficult; very few Law Masters can complete them.”

"My elder brother also exchanged for the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique in the army. Once the divine power is burned, the power that is unleashed is even more terrifying."

"Actually, with your strength, if it weren't for taking care of me, you would have had the opportunity to join the special legion long ago."

Lambo's tone suddenly became a little downcast.

Special Legion, that's the place his elder brother has always dreamed of. Only there can he obtain better inheritances, more powerful treasures, and even mechanical treasures.

However, for his sake, his elder brother remained in the regular army.

Zhang Yi felt a little surprised as he looked at the burly, blond man in front of him.

Is there a chance to join a special legion?
If what Lanbo said is true, then Lan Shuo's strength is quite good. Without the help of the most powerful treasure, he probably has the strength of a top-tier sixth-order cultivator.

“Brother Shi Kong, don’t listen to him. All he does is brag. With my strength, even if I were lucky enough to join a special legion, I would be doomed if I encountered a disaster-level mission,” Lan Shuo said.

After some conversation, the three became quite familiar with each other, and Zhang Yi also learned a lot about the two brothers.

As time passed, Lan Shuo suddenly said, "If we go any further, we'll be outside the territory of the Frozen Wave Prison."

"I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

Although his strength is comparable to that of a true god, that is only the weakest one, and only those who do not understand the secret technique of burning divine power can he put up a fight.

If a true god-level expert comes after us, it will be dangerous.

In retrospect, they weren't too unlucky.

Lambo also breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally, I'm leaving this damn place. It's too oppressive here."

"Relief?" Zhang Yi shook his head. Through the fluctuations in spacetime around him, he could sense a powerful aura rapidly approaching from afar.

They were much faster than them.

"You two shouldn't be too happy yet," Zhang Yi said with a smile. "What do you mean?"

Lan Shuo was also full of doubt, as he hadn't sensed anything unusual.

Just then, that powerful aura appeared in their field of vision, and in an instant, it landed not far in front of the three of them.

This is a mythical beast god with a lion's head, a human body, and four hooves.

At this moment, he stared at Zhang Yi and the other two, his voice low and deep: "You guys are really bold, daring to come to the territory of my Frozen Wave Prison to kill my Frozen Wave Prison's powerful beasts."

"Today, none of you will escape."

The moment this alien beast god appeared, Lan Shuo's expression turned extremely ugly, and he turned to look at Zhang Yi.

With doubts in his heart, Zhang Yi seemed to have known about the arrival of this strange beast, the True God, all along.

"Brother Time and Space, I feel that this Beast God is not easy to deal with. I'll stop him, you take my brother and leave first." Lan Shuo gritted his teeth and transmitted his voice to Zhang Yi.

At the same time, he shouted to Lambo, "Follow the Time Brothers and go first."

Before Lambo could react, a giant sword appeared in his hand, and he charged towards the Beast God.

As he charged toward the alien beast god, his divine power burned wildly throughout his body.

A massive sword shadow appeared, and Lan Shuo's giant sword, like a deluge of rain, instantly covered the alien beast god.

The Beast God let out a low shout: "You do have some strength."

With a single claw, it slammed into the giant sword amidst countless sword shadows.

Boom! In the violent collision, Lan Shuo's burly body flew backward, while the Beast God remained standing in place.

A hint of despair appeared in Lan Shuo's eyes.

This beast god is very powerful; even if he burns his divine power, he is no match for it.

Moreover, how could a true god of such power not possess the secret technique of burning divine power?

Lambo, who was standing to the side, was also stunned.

"Haha, you three damned soldiers, prepare to die!" The Beast God roared, his divine power instantly burning, and his huge hooves pressed down from above like towering stone pillars.

Even before making contact, one can feel its immense power.

Lan Shuo gritted his teeth and once again swung his greatsword to meet the attack.

boom!
After a fierce battle, the alien beast god was unharmed, but Lan Shuo lost a great deal of divine power.

"Let's see how much longer you can hold out." The Beast God attacked again.

Lambo also resisted frantically, but with his strength, he was completely ignored by the Beast God.

As he made his move, he saw Zhang Yi watching from afar as if it were a show, and roared, "You brat, fight back! Are you scared out of your wits?"

Lan Shuo sighed inwardly. What could Zhang Yi do even if he made a move? This was a powerful beast god who also possessed the secret technique of burning divine power.

Even among their special legions in the Northern Army, only soldiers with mechanical treasures are capable of fighting.

Just then, Zhang Yi's figure flashed and he arrived in front of the alien beast god.

"What amazing movement technique!" Lan Shuo's eyes lit up. In his opinion, this kind of movement technique was among the best even among true gods.

Is there still a chance to escape?

"However, Brother Shi Kong is still too arrogant. Does he really think he can fight against this alien beast god with just his movement technique?"

Suddenly, a look of shock appeared in his eyes.

"how is this possible?"

He witnessed an unbelievable scene.

After Zhang Yi used his identity to quickly approach the lion-headed beast god, a black spear appeared in his hand. He thrust the spear out and directly struck the beast god.

With each shot, the terrifyingly powerful spear shadows bombarded the alien beast god, blasting it into pieces.

With a wave of his hand, he collected the items left behind after the fall of the alien beast god.

With a swift movement, Zhang Yi appeared before the Lan brothers, Lan Shuo and Lan Bo.

"Leave quickly."

A low shout snapped the two out of their shock.

The three disappeared from the spot and flew away at high speed into the distance.

In a dense forest.

"Time and space, you..." Lan Shuo didn't know what to say.

“You saved my brother’s and my life this time. I apologize for my brother’s previous behavior.”

"If there is any request from now on, we will definitely obey."

Lanbo, standing to the side, was also embarrassed. In his eyes, Zhang Yi, who was a burden, was a beast god that even his older brother was no match for, and he was killed with just a few shots.

What kind of monster is this?

Moreover, he could clearly sense that Zhang Yi had neither burned his divine power nor used any mechanical treasures.

All of this was somewhat beyond their comprehension.

Could the Lord of Laws be so powerful on his own?

Zhang Yi simply smiled faintly: "There's no need for that. My intervention wasn't entirely to save you; it was more about self-preservation. That beast god won't let me off the hook."

This time, he was somewhat forced into it, and it could even be said that he took a risk.

That lion-headed beast god is very powerful, possessing top-tier eighth-order strength even in the cosmic sea. If it were to unleash the divine power burning technique, it would reach top-tier ninth-order strength.

Even if he were to unleash two divine power techniques, he could only unleash the peak strength of the eleventh rank.

Leaving aside whether he can kill the alien beast god in a short time, the most crucial thing is that once he uses the divine power burning secret technique, which he has never exchanged in the army.

We've been discovered. How do we explain this?

Therefore, at the same time as he drew his gun, he used the secret technique of the ancient mirror.

Under the power of the secret technique of will, the alien beast god naturally perished instantly, and only then did the spear shadow fall.

This led to the shocking scene in Lan Shuo and the other's eyes: the alien beast god seemed to offer no resistance as it was blasted into pieces.

The use of willpower techniques is something that even powerful individuals who witness it firsthand would not be able to guess.

After all, who would believe that a Lord of Laws could use a secret technique of will to kill a True God?

However, for the master of the Frozen Wave Prison, a Void True God-level expert, it might not be so simple.

Therefore, just to be on the safe side, Zhang Yi took the two of them and flew for several months until they arrived at a place not far from the Northern Army camp before stopping to rest.

“Let’s go, take me to the Northern Army camp,” Zhang Yi said, standing up.

"Okay, let's go." Lan Shuo and the other person quickly replied.
