Swallowing the Stars: Level 1, One Talent, Invincible Chaos Origin

Chapter 114, Rapid Progress

If one fully comprehends any one of the fundamental laws—metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, or light—one can achieve immortality.

If the two supreme fundamental laws of time and space are perfected, one can ascend to the realm of a supreme being in the universe.

"If one can comprehend the seventh image of the 'Dragon's Chaos Stele,' it means that one has fully comprehended the fundamental laws of space."

It can lead to becoming a Space Venerable.

I had already understood the first six diagrams when I first studied the Chaos Stele.

But the seventh one? I could barely understand it.

Jiang Ming gazed at the twelve chains of law-inspired runes before him and thought to himself.

"But now, I can understand some of it."

Jiang Ming's eyes were bright, and his gaze was sharp.

Understanding and not understanding are two completely different concepts.

Completely ignorant, even if countless eons of time were spent, it would be like looking at flowers through a fog.

Once you can understand it, even if it's just the beginning, it means you have the key to unlock the door. The rest is just a matter of time and perseverance until it comes to fruition.

Immersed in contemplation, time flew by, and nine months passed in the outside world in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Ming's figure also emerged from the crimson light.

"Let's go to the next vortex of malevolent energy."

As soon as Jiang Ming appeared, he attracted the attention of the blood-red giant elephant that had been guarding him.

Seeing the blood-red giant elephant looking at him, Jiang Ming spoke.

"Yes, Master."

The crimson elephant spoke respectfully.

Jiang Ming took a step and went directly behind the blood-red giant elephant, where he closed his eyes and sat cross-legged.

"Master... has become even stronger."

The crimson elephant was deeply shaken.

Its strength was far inferior to Jiang Ming's, making it difficult to determine his specific realm, but it could clearly feel the increasing pressure originating from the level of life itself.

Previously, a single glance from Jiang Ming seemed capable of shattering its soul, but now, it's impossible to detect even a trace of its presence.

This was not a simple concealment, but rather, under the shroud of that invisible and intangible aura, its body instinctively felt a sense of submission!

"Just what level has the master reached?"

The giant elephant was filled with surging waves of fear.

It has existed for hundreds of millions of years, and countless immortal gods of the Blood Luo Continent have seen it, but none of them can possess such an unfathomable and chilling aura as its master.

The crimson elephant trod across the vast land, weaving through vortexes of malevolent energy.

The ancient god ruins are vast and boundless, dotted with millions of malevolent vortexes.

Although the giant elephant did not set foot in all of them, it knew the locations of most of them.

Therefore, it can always reach the next target via the shortest path.

The time Jiang Ming spends at the core of each vortex is getting shorter and shorter.

The reason is simple: as his understanding of the laws of space deepens, the overlap of the law runes in different vortexes increases, while the number of new, unique runes that can supplement his knowledge decreases accordingly.

Initially, he would need to stay for a year and a half.

Later on, it often only took a few days or even less.

"Of the millions of evil energy vortexes, I have only visited 14 so far. And each of these evil energy vortexes has a slightly different spatial pattern."

For me, it's all a huge profit.

Although the number of spatial runes that can be comprehended is decreasing, there are plenty of malevolent vortexes within the ruins of the ancient gods.

Jiang Ming's progress has not slowed down.

On the elephant's back, Jiang Ming sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, seemingly meditating, but his consciousness was like a vast galaxy, intensely operating and deducing within his sea of ​​knowledge. One after another, three-dimensional scenes composed of spatial runes appeared, combined, and disassembled.

Each time it enters the vortex of malevolent energy, the twelve chains of law-based secret patterns become like fragments of the most intricate key.

He continuously filled the gaps in his understanding of the fundamental laws of space, corrected the deviations in his understanding, and gradually clarified the originally chaotic and blurry outline of the seventh picture of the "Dragon's Chaos Stele," which was like a heavenly book.

"The 15th location..."

Jiang Ming silently recited in his heart.

Three days later, Jiang Ming's figure emerged from the vortex of evil energy.

This time, he stayed in the core of the vortex for a very short time, only three days before stepping out into the light.

The crimson giant elephant keenly sensed that its master's aura was becoming increasingly profound and restrained. The invisible spatial fluctuations surrounded its body, as if it had transformed into a miniature spatial node, seemingly detached from its surroundings and ready to merge into the void at any moment.

"Master, the nearest vortex of malevolent energy is occupied by an immortal deity from the Immortal Temple. Should we avoid it?"

Upon seeing Jiang Ming appear, the blood-red giant elephant spoke respectfully to him.

"It's alright, let's continue."

Jiang Ming spoke indifferently.

"Yes."

The crimson elephant bowed its head respectfully and said.

Where the malevolent energy vortex is located, the malevolent energy is most concentrated. As Jiang Ming explores each location, it is impossible for him not to encounter other immortal gods.

Jiang Ming had naturally anticipated this.

Before long, the crimson elephant's footsteps reached the edge of a deep pit. The crimson elephant's eyes were alert, ready to fight at any moment.

But the next moment, Jiang Ming raised his hand and grabbed at the air, shattering the void and creating a tiny black hole.

The next moment, when Jiang Ming withdrew his hand, there was a pool of blood on his palm.

"Let's go."

With a flick of his wrist, Jiang Ming dispersed the bloodstains like dust, turning them into fundamental particles of the universe and vanishing without a trace.

"Yes!"

The blood-red giant elephant's pupils trembled violently, and a storm of shock surged within its heart!
The aura lingering on the bloodstains clearly belonged to an immortal god!
The master made such a casual move on its back, and it didn't even notice a slight energy fluctuation or spatial ripple!

This was so much easier and more effortless than when we captured it before!
"How could I have improved so much in such a short time? Could it be that my master didn't go all out against me before?"

The crimson giant elephant was puzzled, but it also had some guesses about Jiang Ming's identity.

It had previously thought that Jiang Ming might be an old monster in the Immortal Temple, but after seeing that Jiang Ming had directly annihilated even the gods of the Immortal Temple, that possibility was dispelled.

The only remaining possibility is that they are from outer space!

Few powerful figures on the Blood Continent are unaware of visitors from outer space. Cloud-level experts, representing the cosmic level, can fly, while Domain-level experts can fly beyond the heavens.

But without exception, none of the powerful beings who flew out into the sky were able to return.

They were all wiped out in space by extraterrestrial visitors.

“Following my great master, I too will one day leave the Blood Continent.”

The crimson elephant thought to itself.

"The 1954th..."

"The 37,600th place..."

Time flew by as Jiang Ming focused on his contemplation.

He spent less and less time in each vortex of malevolent energy, sometimes only a few breaths. With a glance, he could discern the unique patterns contained within them and integrate them into his own vast spatial law diagram.

The seventh image of the "Dragon's Journey Through Chaos Stele," a chaotic star map that was once shrouded in endless mist, is becoming increasingly clear in Jiang Ming's sea of ​​consciousness.

Each of the secret patterns within the vortex of malevolent energy seemed to illuminate a key node in the star map.

Countless nodes are interconnected, constructing a vast, complex, and incredibly harmonious three-dimensional network of spatial laws.
