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

Chapter 204, The Strange Changes in the River of Withered Bones
As the clash between Jiang Ming's will and spiritual realm intensified, a peculiar change began to occur throughout the entire Bone Galaxy.

The 'bone-like atmosphere' that permeated the entire Bone Galaxy, which was about 2.1 light-years in diameter, began to boil continuously.

The power of artistic conception erupts!

This change immediately attracted the attention of the powerful beings of various races in the Bone Star River.

The desolate and barren Star River appears as if it were a forbidden zone for living beings.

But in fact this is not the case.

The Shattered Star Ring was originally an extremely vast super secret realm, an environment that was extremely conducive to the creation of various treasures.

Even though the entire secret realm was shattered by the battle between the Nightmare Clan and the Insect Clan back then.

However, under the immense power of the primordial universe, the shattered secret realm was not broken down or dissipated, but instead continued to converge and evolve over time.

This resulted in the broken star rings we see today.

Dangerous places like the 'Bone River' were born from the combination of the primordial universe with the secret realm itself and the lingering resentment of the Nightmare Clan.

Therefore, treasures often appear within the Bone Star River.

There are quite a few powerful individuals who have been attracted by these treasures and the unique environment of the Bone Star River.

Especially with the opening of the Zerg's extraterritorial battlefield, which encompasses it, the number of powerful beings in the Bone Star River has increased even more.

The main control chamber of the 'Scarlet Nest'.

An urgent command appeared before Jiang Ming's eyes, from the 'Will of the Hive'.

[An unknown anomaly has occurred in the 'Withered Bone Galaxy,' causing the peak value of the spiritual energy permeating its interior to surge.]

[Possibility Assessment 1: A great treasure is about to be born within the Bone Galaxy. (32%)]

[Possibility Judgment Two: The Arrangement by the Powerful Alien Race. (12%)]

[Possibility Judgment Three]

[Option 1: Immediately dispatch a nearby reconnaissance mission, sending a King-level expert to investigate the core source of the fluctuations. (Recommended priority: AAA)]

[Option 2: Mobilize 'Bone Galaxy' and surrounding combat units towards the center of the fluctuation, ready to intervene in any potential treasure battles or eliminate the alien races. (Recommended priority: aab)]

[Option 3: Send an Immortal-class Zerg Queen to investigate. (Recommended priority: AAC)]

Data streams flashed rapidly through Jiang Ming's compound eyes as he coldly issued a series of commands.

"Methods 1, 2, 3, 5, 19, and 27 will be executed simultaneously."

"The nest remains silent, continuously monitoring changes in will fluctuations."

Following Jiang Ming's order, some activity began to occur within the Zerg camp.

The Zerg Alliance powerhouses within and near the Bone Star River simultaneously received mission instructions from the 'Will of the Hive'.

Some remained noncommittal, but many more powerful individuals still headed to the central area of ​​the 'Bone River'.

"The commotion is bigger than expected."

Jiang Ming, who was in the center of the Bone Star River, frowned slightly, but did not stop analyzing and fighting against that spiritual domain.

This comprehensive pressure and feedback is the best way for him to deeply understand the structure of his will.

"However, such a commotion is not enough to attract the attention of the upper echelons of the elite clans, so there is no need to worry too much."

……

Another place in the galaxy of withered bones.

A mechanical spaceship was cautiously navigating, its shape resembling a sleek metal barracuda, perfectly concealing its energy signature. Suddenly, an alarm sounded inside the spaceship.

"An extremely high-intensity burst of willpower energy has been detected! Source coordinates (%&￥#@ Starfield)! The intensity index is continuously rising! It has broken through the Immortal Title level."

A cold, electronic voice rang out in the squad's communication channel, accompanied by a barely perceptible tremor.

"Analysis of its energy properties reveals it to be of the same origin as 'Will of the Withered Bones,' but its purity and intensity are three orders of magnitude higher! Suspected core mutation!"

"Data has been uploaded to 'Mechanical Temple'! Highest encryption level!"

Further away, a small team led by the immortal of the 'Spiky Back Clan,' a vassal clan of the Demon Clan Alliance, was directly impacted by the sudden surge of will power and was in a very sorry state. They began to break out of the encirclement, wanting to leave this 'Bone Galaxy' as soon as possible.

The leader of the Thornback tribe, the king, clutched his head in pain.

"Damn it! How come the resentment in this godforsaken place has suddenly become so much stronger?"

Several Immortal team members behind him screamed in agony, their eyes instantly becoming dull and empty, and pale bone spots began to appear on their bodies, showing signs of being assimilated and eroded!
"Back off! Back off!"

The King of the Thornback Clan was terrified. He unleashed his full divine power, grabbed his subordinates, and fled in a frenzy.

"Report this immediately! Something big must have happened!"

……

Deep within the cosmic river of withered bones, in that illusory spiritual realm.

Jiang Ming's will embodied his confrontation with the entire territory like a madman, offering no resistance or defense.

Each clash creates a large void within one's mental domain, but it is restored in the next instant.

Jiang Ming didn't care about this; this spiritual territory was not something that could be easily conquered.

Even if it is annihilated in one blow, this spiritual territory will quickly recover.

It seems to possess an immortal quality; no matter how severely damaged it is, its core remains unharmed.

However, Jiang Ming was not in a hurry about this.

Jiang Ming's damage to the mental domain is limited, but it can still cause injury. However, attacks on the mental domain pose no threat to Jiang Ming whatsoever.

Moreover, each time his spiritual domain was damaged, Jiang Ming was able to absorb a portion of the power from that spiritual domain through the 'Abyss of Calamity'.

Although the power absorbed each time is just a drop in the ocean compared to the vastness of the spiritual realm.

However, the power of the spiritual realm is difficult to replenish; every bit used diminishes it. Jiang Ming doesn't gain much power from each absorption, but after millions or even billions of times, it accumulates continuously.

The impact that would be quite significant.

Meanwhile, Jiang Ming's 360 illusory light clones were not idle either.

They were scattered throughout various regions of the Bone Star River, constantly collecting the power of the Bone Realm that was gradually approaching its peak.

"At the current rate, it would take me about 3700 years to completely devour this spiritual territory."

Jiang Ming's mind was incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, he calculated the time it took him to devour this spiritual territory.

"But it shouldn't take that long."

Within the realm of the spirit.

The spiritual aftershocks generated by Jiang Ming's will avatar's confrontation with the entire territory have stirred up an even greater storm of will in the real Bone Star River outside.

Countless lingering resentments surged forward, and the pitch-black chains extending from the Hall of Bones had already wrapped around the 'ankles' and 'arms' of Jiang Ming's vast will body.
However, it had no effect on Jiang Ming whatsoever. On the contrary, through this intense confrontation, Jiang Ming's analysis of the 'structure of the will of the monarch and his subjects' continued to deepen.
