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

Chapter 170, The 21st Floor of the Sky Bridge!
The Dragon Bridge spans the endless sea, extending to the ends of the earth, shrouded in mist.

Jiang Ming appeared at the bridgehead and, without pausing, transformed into a streak of light and rushed directly into the Tongtian Bridge.

Thirty years into the Chaos City, Jiang Ming had already passed through the 13th level of the Heavenly Bridge, and there were no guardians for the previous 13 levels.

Jiang Ming continued along the Tongtian Bridge.

Before long, Jiang Ming arrived at the place where he had stopped before.

Although Jiang Ming's understanding of the laws had been acknowledged by the fundamental laws of space, his extraordinary speed of comprehension forced him to conceal his abilities for a time.

Standing here again, where he once stopped, Jiang Ming felt as if a layer of dust had been swept away from his heart.

"They are not comparable."

Jiang Ming smiled and stepped forward.

14 floors! Pass!
15 floors! Pass!
16 floors! Pass!
Jiang Ming strolled around as if taking a leisurely walk, and the gatekeepers crumbled one by one under his figure.

Just as Jiang Ming was breaking through the barrier, one after another, super strong individuals who had received the news began to descend upon the Tongtian Bridge plane.

Among these terrifying figures, Luo Feng, clad in cyan battle armor, was completely inconspicuous.

"Brother Jiang, you've already reached this level of strength?"

Luo Feng stared blankly at the huge screen above the Tongtian Bridge, his shock beyond imagination.

In their year's genius competition, Jiang Ming was considered the best, surpassing other geniuses by several levels.

In general, Jiang Ming is listed separately before comparison.

Because anyone who compares themselves to Jiang Ming seems far too weak.

Luo Feng never thought of comparing himself to Jiang Ming.

After hundreds of years of cultivation, Luo Feng has already passed the seventh level of the Tongtian Bridge. If he were to attempt to pass the Tongtian Bridge now, he might be able to advance one or two more levels.

He thought he was getting closer to Jiang Ming, since the further one progresses in understanding the laws, the longer it takes to improve.

But now, looking at it, everyone is dumbfounded.

Jiang Ming's leisurely stroll made it seem as if he were trying to cross a two-story bridge to heaven.

"Compared to Brother Jiang, do we really deserve the title of 'peerless genius'?"

Luo Feng shook his head.

The quality of this year's Genius Battle has been hailed as the best ever, not only producing super prodigies like Jiang Ming, but also peerless geniuses such as Bo Lan, Luo Feng, and Rong Jun. Even the unexpected rise of Ai Chen has been widely discussed.

Compared to Jiang Ming, everyone else's brilliance seemed incredibly dim.

"However, the stronger Brother Jiang is, the higher his status will be, and the more transcendent our Earth lineage will be in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, and even in the entire human race."

Luo Feng couldn't help but recall what he had seen and heard since returning to the Qianwu Universe Kingdom as a special envoy for inspection.

In just a few hundred years, the Earth has changed dramatically, with a large number of geniuses and powerful individuals emerging from the 'Celestial Group'.

The Earth is no longer the place it once was, with only a handful of big cats and little cats. One after another, geniuses and powerful individuals are emerging on Earth.

The best among them have even joined the five major powers of the universe.

"I wonder what Brother Jiang did when he was the special envoy for inspection, and where he found so many geniuses."

Luo Feng was also curious about this. Most of the geniuses and experts who came out of the 'Heavenly God Group' were not from Earth.

Although these people are not from Earth, they have all left Earth and spread into various major forces in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, and even among the five major forces in the universe, all of which are invisibly increasing Earth's influence.

In the past, mentioning Earth only evoked images of Jiang Ming and Luo Feng's Earth. But now, when Earth is mentioned again, everyone sees it as a cradle of geniuses.

In the Tongtian Bridge dimension, amidst endless darkness, only a winding bridge surface stretches endlessly into the depths of darkness. Jiang Ming is flying close to the bridge surface, having just passed the 20th level and is now flying towards the end of the 21st Tongtian Bridge.

"Although the Bridge to Heaven is often seen as a symbol of enlightenment, enlightenment is actually just a stepping stone, because breaking through the barrier requires fighting."

In combat, it still depends on a combination of many aspects, such as combat techniques, body vibration techniques, psychic vibration techniques, and willpower!

Simply comprehending the laws is merely a basic foundation. Once this foundation is achieved, one must also combine it with effective secret techniques to unleash sufficient combat power.

"Let me see the guardian of the 21st floor of the Sky Bridge."

Jiang Ming also wanted to know just how strong he had become.

The guardians of the first 20 levels did not allow him to display much of his strength.

Tongtianqiao plane.

quiet!
silence!

The boundless silence spread like a plague. At this moment, a large number of super strong people gathered in the entire Tongtian Bridge plane, among whom the rarely seen King-level beings emerged like mushrooms after rain.

Even the most supreme rulers of the universe have descended upon this place.

But after seeing Jiang Ming casually cross the 20th floor of the Sky Bridge, all of them seemed to have come to a standstill.

The eerie silence was suddenly broken, and many powerful figures couldn't help but start exchanging ideas.

"That's the 20th floor! Am I sure I didn't see wrong? His Highness Jiang Ming just cleared the twentieth floor!!!"

"This is unbelievable! How long has His Highness Jiang Ming been cultivating? He has already gained insight into the 20th level of the Bridge to Heaven! And he cleared it so easily!"

"Yes, yes, yes! That was too easy. Could it be that His Highness Jiang Ming can actually clear the 21st floor?!"

Many powerful individuals have lived for countless years and have seen all sorts of grand scenes; they shouldn't be so surprised.

But they had never seen anything like this before!

Can you really clear all 20 levels of the Heavenly Bridge after cultivating for hundreds of years? There's a limit to how much you can joke around!
“The 21st floor and the 20th floor are completely different concepts. Although Jiang Ming’s performance is incredibly extraordinary, he probably won’t be able to pass.”

The golden-armored ape-man, True King Yan, spoke.

As he spoke, everyone seemed to recall the difficulty of the 20th floor of the Sky Bridge, and they all echoed his words.

"Indeed, many beings at the limit of the King level or even the invincible King level have stopped at the 20th floor of the Bridge to Heaven. Many invincible King level beings are beyond the reach of even the Venerable Ones."

But even that wouldn't get you past the 21st floor; that floor is the real insurmountable barrier.

"The 20th and 21st floors may seem like they're only a step apart, but that step is actually more significant than the sum of the differences between the 1st and 20th floors!"

Despite these words, everyone's eyes remained fixed on the screen in the sky, as if afraid of missing any detail.

On the screen, Jiang Mingqian appeared at the end of a sky bridge. At the end of the bridge was a sphere with a diameter of more than two meters. The space around the sphere was completely distorted and shattered, with a large number of spatial fragments surrounding it.

"Every three levels of the Sky Bridge present a different environment. Levels 19 to 21 are all black hole environments. Now we've finally seen the black hole."

There is an ancient entity that opens its mouth to introduce itself.

At this moment, a large number of black dots suddenly floated out of the black hole on the screen, and then condensed into a human figure, a human with black armor and a black mask, carrying a giant sword on his back.

The giant sword, merely hanging behind the black-armored man, was drawn by boundless gravity, like a sword-shaped black hole, devouring endless light.
