Swallowing the Stars: 100x Return for Teaching Apprentices

Chapter 323 Physical Potential, Sense of the Great Dao

The Peak Realm, one of the three forbidden lands of the Cosmic Sea, is located in the dimly lit area at the core of the Peak Realm.

"tear!"

Black flesh was torn apart, blood splattered, and the hideous head was frantically tearing and devouring.

"Hahaha"

The Beast Mohe, tearing at its prey, laughed maniacally, "Third tier! Finally, I've reached the third tier too! Bedi, Morosa, Qiya... you all look down on these ordinary second-tier clansmen, but I do. Devouring a few more second-tiers is more rewarding than devouring a third-tier one!"

Its body was covered in wounds, and its other head was torn in half, clearly indicating that the battle had been extremely fierce.

The battles between Beasts are completely different from the battles between Beasts and True Gods.

When the Beasts of the Realm fight against the True Gods, they can use their opposing powers to wear each other down, or easily split their bodies to escape.

But it's different when the beasts of the realm fight each other.

They have the same strength.

Furthermore, they are mutually exclusive; if you can split into ninety-nine parts, so can I! You won't be able to escape!
"Mohe, if you eat me, you'll be eaten by other beasts in the future anyway."

The beast, with a huge hole in its chest and only a head remaining, roared in despair as it was relentlessly torn apart by Mohe, "You've reached the third rank now, and soon you'll be targeted by Bedi and the others. You won't be a match for them!"

"idiot."

Mohe devoured the beasts frantically, cursing as he went, "Bedi and the others, we World Beasts can all know each other's locations, humph. I'm not as stupid as you. If I sense the aura of other third-tier beasts approaching, I can just avoid them. Once I devour more second-tier World Beasts and become stronger, I can easily deal with them!"

Mohe is somewhat different from other world beasts. It has a colder personality and is shrewd and calculating.

At the very beginning of their beast race's birth, it wisely distanced itself from the most chaotic and fiercely contested center of the lair and moved to the outermost area.

It was precisely because of this caution that it avoided the first and most powerful internal battles, and took the opportunity to devour some other weaker world beasts on the periphery to increase its strength.

"By entering the third tier, my strength can be considered to have reached the first level among all world beasts."

A glint flashed in the eyes of the Beast Mohe, but then, an image involuntarily surfaced in his consciousness—

That was a cosmic sea creature that piloted some kind of giant bird weapon. He was clearly only a universe master, yet he possessed extraordinary combat power that surpassed all true gods!

In that battle, it was completely outmatched in every aspect, including attack, speed, and domain control. In particular, the method of devouring divine power, which the World Beasts relied on the most, was easily neutralized by the opponent.

A cosmic ruler possesses such an exaggerated divine body. If the opponent were to directly engage it with divine power, it would be enough to overwhelm even the strongest methods.

Last time, if it weren't for the rapid arrival of the World Beast army alerted by his advance message, he would probably have perished at the hands of that golden-armored human!
"Those fools didn't believe me and even laughed at me for being scared out of my wits!"

The Beast Mohe's gaze was icy. "Hmph! You bunch of fools, keep being arrogant and conceited. Wait until that cosmic sea life form comes to kill you, then let's see if you'll still be laughing!"

"Whether they believe it or not, I must become stronger even faster. The king of the Beast Realm can only be me!"

Rip! Sizzle! Sizzle!

They ate it in large mouthfuls.

The single eye on each of the two heads of the Beast of Realms, Mohe, flashed with a cold light: "I, Mohe, am determined to kill all the Beasts of Realms and become the sole king!!"

Deep within the lair of the Beast Realm.

On a floating desert rock, a huge black figure was lying down. Suddenly, it sat up and looked into the distance.

Its two ugly heads were both looking in the same direction, and the single eye on each head had a faint, swirling light of color, coldly staring into the distance.

"Third level?"

It muttered hoarsely, "Another Tier 3 has appeared. It's that guy from Mohe. Hmph, poor Mohe, now that you've become Tier 3, you're qualified to be my food!"

hum~~~
The space rippled slightly, and three figures appeared in this core area. They were none other than Qiuyan Ancestral God, Haolei Star Lord, and Zhenjia King, who had already secretly pledged allegiance to the World Beast.

Due to Qi Yuan's intervention, humanity did not obtain the maps of the three forbidden zones revealed by the Lord of Yuan'ao. Moreover, since the Giant Axe had already received the supreme treasure from Qi Yuan, it naturally did not need to venture into the core of the three forbidden zones to search for treasures, and thus did not perish.

These three naturally did not confront the human race directly, and the Lord of Hao Lei Star did not perish.

However, the primordial will also revealed the fact that the three of them had sided with the World Beast through the Ancestral God Sect, which caused the entire Cosmic Sea to reject them. They could only hide in their own small universes and did not even dare to venture into the Jin World, for fear of encountering the powerful figures of the Cosmic Sea, in which case they would definitely be targeted by the combined forces.

As the strongest Beast in the Beast Nest, Bedi naturally pays attention to the Cosmic Sea. He also learns about the Cosmic Sea through King Zhenjia, Ancestral God Qiuyan, and Lord Haolei.

"What are you three doing here?"

Bedi's cold gaze swept over the three figures in front of him.

"Your Majesty!"

King Zhenjia and the other two bowed, trembling.

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"

All three Ancestral Gods of Qiuyan spoke with great anxiety.

"Fool, what's the big deal! Just say it!" Bedy said coldly. "Your Majesty, it's that Master of the Mysterious Affinity Pavilion, he, he's broken through to True God!" King Zhenjia roared.

"Yes, it's that Master of the Wonderful Affinity Pavilion. Before his breakthrough, he was able to fight against the most powerful True God. Moreover, when he broke through to True God not long ago, he caused golden light to shine throughout the entire Primordial Universe, causing all living beings in the Primordial Universe, including True Gods, to kneel down. Now that he has completed his breakthrough, he will definitely be even more powerful. Your Majesty, you must take this seriously!" Qiuyan Ancestral God said anxiously.

"The Master of the Wonderful Fate Pavilion? Mohe once said that there was an outsider whose realm was only at the level of the Lord of the Universe, yet he easily and completely defeated him. Could this be the Master of the Wonderful Fate Pavilion?"

Bedi blinked. "A universe master can actually defeat a powerful world beast. There are such powerful beings in the cosmic sea. If he becomes a true god, what will become of him?"

"It seems my strength is not enough."

"I need to improve faster and become stronger faster."

Bedi thought to himself, "In the past, I dealt more with other third-tier world beasts, but now I have to devour second-tier world beasts... If I devour too many second-tier world beasts, I can still be equivalent to a third-tier world beast."

Brady's past strategy was very simple.

Those that threaten them are devoured one by one; even if they cannot be devoured, they are severely injured.

Thus, it remained at the very top!

This method is very reliable; it can easily keep an eye on the hundreds of most threatening beasts at all times. However, this method is also slow!
If even a massive number of second-tier world beasts were to be devoured and attacked, the advancement speed would be faster, but it would also mean that it would be impossible to perfectly control the situation of those threatening world beasts. It can be said that there are both advantages and disadvantages.

Even Qi Yuan himself did not expect that the beasts in the Dark Land would also be stimulated by his breakthrough and begin to silently accelerate the speed at which they devoured each other.

However, the many creatures in the Cosmic Sea were completely unaware of this!
Meanwhile, after celebrating his breakthrough to True Godhood, Qi Yuan directly entered his own miniature universe.

After breaking through to the True God realm, he hadn't had a chance to properly explore his newly formed perfect divine body. Now that he finally had some free time, he had the opportunity to tap into its potential.

certainly--

At the same time, his consciousness was also divided into two parts. One part of his consciousness was exploring the potential of his body, while the other part was carefully absorbing and digesting the previous 'comprehension of chaotic evolution' in order to improve his strength as much as possible.

He wasn't too worried about the threat posed by the Beasts of the Realm.

Firstly, it is still in the early stages of the World Beast's development, and there is still a very long time before the World Beast crisis truly erupts.

Secondly, after breaking through to the True God realm, his strength increased dramatically. He was confident that he could directly suppress even third- or fourth-tier world beasts.

The problem is that there are simply too many World Beasts left, and he doesn't have the means to instantly kill a huge number of them. Otherwise, he would have already gone to the Dark Land to have some fun and test his combat power after the breakthrough!

"Based on the timeline in the original work, the most powerful Beast in the Beast Nest at this time is probably only at the third tier, and I can kill a third-tier Beast with a flick of my hand."

Qi Yuan thought to himself, "No rush. I'll make my move when they've devoured each other a bit and their numbers have decreased. Besides, this World Beast crisis only becomes real when we can negotiate with the Origin Will and gain some benefits. There's no need to rush into action at the beginning; improving my own strength is the most important thing!"

……

Within the miniature universe, Qi Yuan was silently comprehending.

"My body has such power." After carefully sensing and fully exploring his own potential, Qi Yuan couldn't help but marvel at it.

Reaching the level of life force ten thousand times over has given his body incredible power.

If 30,000 times, 60,000 times, and 90,000 times are mainly due to the amount of divine power stored, then '100,000 times' has already transcended and reached another level.

In terms of divine power reserves, one has reached the peak after possessing the 'Infinite Divine Body' and the ability to 'control its size at will'.

Now that Qi Yuan has reached the legendary '100,000 times', he possesses all sorts of powers, which can be collectively referred to as 'formless and shapeless'.

Formless and without appearance, this means that Qi Yuan can perfectly conceal his life force without revealing a single trace of it, because of the perfection of the 'life structure diagram', which allows him to not reveal even a trace.

It can also easily change its aura and simulate any aura!
He can even manipulate his thoughts to directly transform his divine power into the completely opposite 'World Beast Power', which is incredibly amazing!

Besides these, during his return to his origin, he unintentionally merged with the three golden auspicious clouds, which caused his body to undergo many more wondrous changes.

First and foremost, because the golden auspicious cloud transformed into a mark on his true god's heart, it was preserved, which also allowed his clone to be preserved.

However, the Three Pure Ones' avatars had undergone some changes at this point.

The current Three Pure Ones' incarnations were formed by those three golden auspicious clouds absorbing the endless divine power transformed from a miniature universe through the heart of the true god.
The newly formed Three Pure Ones clones do not possess the heart of a true god, nor do they have a soul. Their bodies are composed of endless divine power, and upon closer inspection, they resemble some kind of 'energy life form'.

Moreover, the power of the clones is limited compared to the original body; each clone possesses only about one-third the power of the original body.

However, given the sheer power of his physical body, even a third of his strength would be more than enough to surpass the vast majority of true gods!
Besides the special abilities of his clones, Qi Yuan felt that his own talent had also been greatly enhanced after merging with the golden auspicious cloud and his various clones!

Previously, he had gained some understanding of the Dao of Life by studying the divine power route and observing the 'Perfect Life Structure Diagram'. This was the only bit of power at the level of the Dao that he had mastered.

After returning to his origin and merging his many clones into one, his talent soared dramatically, and he even began to vaguely sense that he was about to enter the realm of many 'Great Dao'.

Time and space. These are two laws that Qi Yuan has already fully mastered. However, at this moment, he feels that he has not yet reached the end of his research on time and space, and there are still endless mysteries waiting for him to discover!

There is also the Way of 'Matter' that explains all existence and change, the Way of 'World' that represents creation and origin, the mysterious and unfathomable Way of 'Cause and Effect', and the Way of 'Soul' that seems to exist yet is extremely vague.
With Qi Yuan's current level of cultivation, it was naturally impossible for him to fully grasp the various boundless, magnificent, and profound powerful forces. However, he truly felt their existence!
Once you sense its existence, you can naturally try to touch, explore, get started, and even master it through step-by-step efforts!
Various races in the cosmic sea, including some powerful individuals from the original human race, continuously rushed into the world of advancement, using it to hone their skills and strive to improve their strength.

Qi Yuan, on the other hand, seemed to be immersed in some kind of profound enlightenment. Apart from a divine power clone that stayed outside to teach disciples, his main body had always stayed in the small universe and never left.

Time slipped away quietly as I immersed myself in this practice.
