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

Chapter 151, Space Criminal

Just as Jiang Ming's inner world was undergoing transformation, Vanessa, who was outside, also changed at that moment.

Her skin became even paler, with the metallic thorn texture faintly visible through it.

Deep within the pupils of his eyes, it seemed as if countless tiny thorns were growing and entwining.

Behind her, a pair of wings that looked like they were made of thorns spread out, carrying an aura that made people sink into depravity.

"My power is growing stronger."

Vanessa felt the power surging within her body, and her body trembled as she realized the source of the power.

"Is it because the Abyss has become stronger, and therefore I have become stronger too? Is this the source of all this?"

Vanessa's gaze fell upon the castle, as if she had seen Jiang Ming in the castle's quiet chamber.

"Master, you've gotten stronger again."

She felt an unprecedented surge of immense power within her, as well as a continuous flow of nourishment from hell.

"Great Master, praise be to your grace."

Vanessa knelt down in the direction of the meditation room, her voice filled with a fervent zeal and awe that came from the depths of her soul.

Elena, who was in another ring world, also felt the changes in her body, and her soul was excited and trembling.

"I need to speed things up, I'm about to lose control of my cultivation level."

Jiang Ming looked at the newborn world inside his body, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

Such a vast inner world should have spontaneously generated the power of the world long ago, and truly emerged from it.

But Jiang Ming dared not break through so quickly at this moment.

Jiang Ming's previous experience in the Talent Awakening Space made him deeply aware of the difficulty of extracting talents in the future.

He couldn't guarantee that he would make a breakthrough every time he honed his will in the Talent Awakening Space.

Without a major breakthrough, even with his current willpower, Jiang Ming wasn't sure if he could complete the Star Layer of the Universe's Strongest Talent.

Not to mention obtaining the star after the strongest talent star in the universe.

"But it's soon."

Jiang Ming's gaze fell upon the 'Abyss of Calamity,' where he saw the consciousness of the Lord of the Azure Mound, which had been imbued with the power of the 'Abyss of Calamity.'

"Wait, something's not right, how could it be so fast?"

The Lord of Bilong possesses the will of a cosmic lord. Although Jiang Ming's 'Abyss of Calamity' is wondrous, it can invade the opponent's consciousness in a way that is almost a dimensional reduction attack.

However, the Lord of Bilong is by no means a simple character. As the erosion progresses, if the Lord of Bilong remains true to his original intentions, even though Jiang Ming's 'Abyss of Calamity' is still growing.

It will also take a considerable amount of time to completely erode the opponent.

"At the original pace, it would take another 27 years for me to completely corrupt the Lord of Bilong."

A thoughtful look flashed across Jiang Ming's eyes.

"She's actively throwing herself into the 'Abyss of Calamity,' what courage!"

Jiang Ming quickly figured out the reason.

"Actively exploring the mysteries of the Abyss of Calamity, even attempting to integrate into it in order to seek a glimmer of hope or to transmit information to their race?"

He also had some admiration for the Zerg overlord's unwavering will and decisive actions.

But this did not change the outcome; instead, it hastened her downfall.

Faced with the "Abyss of Calamity," such exploration is like a moth drawn to a flame, only causing her to sink deeper into the abyss and become nourishment.

"However, if we follow the decision of the Lord of Bilong, she will probably choose to commit suicide before she is completely corrupted."

Jiang Ming quickly realized this possibility.

Since the 'Abyss of Calamity' has never appeared in the primordial universe, other powerful beings naturally could not possibly know the consequences of being completely corrupted by the 'Abyss of Calamity'.

However, now that the Lord of Bilong has deliberately sunk her will into the 'Abyss of Calamity,' influenced by the split consciousness of the 'Abyss of Calamity,' her body in the primordial universe should fall into complete madness.

Every strong person has a different upbringing, and naturally, their personality differs as well. Some are bloodthirsty, some are gentle, some are greedy, and some are generous.
But those who ultimately become powerhouses like the Lord of Bilong, regardless of their personality, will never be true madmen.

Even a bloodthirsty demon who takes pleasure in slaughtering all races in the universe is not a madman.

Similarly, they would never want to become a madman with a deranged will.

Previously, Jiang Ming was unaware of the Bilong Lord's personality and was unsure what choice the Bilong Lord would make in the face of such a dilemma.

But now, they have seen Bi Long actively projecting his consciousness into the Abyss of Calamity.

Jiang Ming also gained a deep understanding of the personality of the Lord of Bilong.

Rather Stick to your guns!
“I need to speed things up, or rather, accumulate enough ‘Abyss of Calamity’ power before the Lord of Bilong might choose to commit suicide, and then invade her in one fell swoop.”

Jiang Ming thought to himself.

Even if the corrupted one dies, and even if the memory of their contact is erased, the power of the 'Abyss of Calamity' will still revive over time.

However, if a powerful figure like the Lord of Bilong commits suicide, it is unknown how long it will take for him to be resurrected.

Maybe in a year, maybe in a million, maybe in a billion years.

In theory, the sooner one is resurrected, the better. However, for powerful beings at the level of cosmic overlords, resurrection requires careful consideration.

Therefore, the timing is difficult to determine.

Perhaps by the time the Lord of Bilong is resurrected, Jiang Ming will no longer need a Zerg queen of cosmic dominance.

Given his rate of growth, this possibility is not small.

Jiang Ming's attention returned to the combined application of "the Wheel of Time" and "the Abyss of Calamity".

The 360 ​​illusory light clones are like 360 ​​tireless observation stations, scattered in every corner of the vast universe.

They continue to operate a weakened version of the "Wheel of Time," accelerating the evolution of illusions on selected planets.

Most of these planets are either nascent civilizations or planets with unique cultural lineages.

"I need to change my goals."

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming spoke up.

"Crimson Flame, retrieve information on various star systems, cosmic kingdoms, criminals, and slave groups."

"Yes, Master!"

Crimson Flame trailed a fiery red energy dress as she raised her scepter and pointed it into the void.

Virtual screens began to appear all around, displaying information about various cosmic kingdoms, prisons, and slave trading groups.

The virtual screen swirls like a galaxy, with countless torrents of information rushing past.

Chi Yan efficiently filtered and categorized, presenting Jiang Ming with the darkest and most chaotic corners of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

"Master, a total of 737 targets that meet the requirements have been selected."

Among them are the 'Obsidian Star Prison' and the 'Gold Thunderstone Star Prison', which are heavy-duty cosmic criminal prisons within the Monta Star Region.
"The 'Fire Phoenix' slave trading group of the 'Cui Lang Star Region,' and the 'Nightmare Touch' of the 'Jialong Star Region.'"

Chi Yan's voice was clear and calm as he reported the results.

Jiang Ming's gaze swept over the star field coordinates marked with scarlet warning symbols, his eyes calm and unwavering.

"737 locations? That's fewer than I expected, but it should be enough."

Looking at the information on the screen, Jiang Ming's illusory light clones also began to move.

They each headed toward their nearest destination.

"Crimson Flame, issue an order to have all the major criminals within their respective cosmic kingdoms gather together."

Jiang Ming noticed that with 130 million star systems in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, the number of criminals was naturally quite large.

However, criminals in each universe are scattered across various prison and mining planets, which makes it difficult to find places that meet his requirements.

"Yes, Master, the order has been given!"
