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

"This is???"

The Giant Rock King suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils shrinking sharply.

But at this moment, all he could see was darkness.

He felt as if his core of will had been thrown into a boundless world burning with countless flames of emotion.

Joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hatred—countless extreme emotions crashed against his mental defenses like a tsunami.

His consciousness was split into countless fragments in an instant, each fragment enduring different forms of torment.

"not good!"

The Rock King instantly realized that he had been ambushed.

A surge of willpower erupted from his body.

But it was as if he were an ordinary person in mid-air, no matter how he moved his hands and feet, he could not touch the ground. His burst of will was like a mud ox sinking into the sea, unable to reach the slightest edge.

Only boundless darkness completely enveloped it.

The Divine Kingdom of Calamity, the Abyss Realm.

Jiang Ming sat high on the throne, his eyes closed, with invisible ripples of will emanating from his body.

In the darkness, following the traces of the Abyss of Calamity, Jiang Ming sensed the dozen or so newly appeared consciousnesses that were intersecting with the Abyss of Calamity.

"The Zerg Alliance has resurrected these invincible kings."

Jiang Ming opened his eyes, a look of understanding flashing in them.

Through the mysterious connection of the Abyss of Calamity, he could vaguely sense those beings he had killed before, whose souls had been tainted by the power of calamity.

At this moment, these auras became clear and active again in the primordial universe, clearly resurrected by the universe's master through time reversal.

With a thought, he quietly activated the power of 'Abyss of Calamity'.

For those memories, the souls have long been imprinted with the 'aura of calamity,' but they have only temporarily fallen into dormancy due to the annihilation of the divine body. Once they are resurrected, the divine body is reshaped, the soul reappears, the memories resurface, and the aura of calamity will be reactivated!
Even death cannot escape the clutches of the Abyss of Calamity.

"Now that I have reached the 'True God level' of will, my control over the power of the Abyss of Calamity has become more and more proficient. Corrosion, enslavement, and these invincible king-level techniques have become much simpler."

Jiang Ming thought to himself.

"Especially after witnessing that supreme 'Dark Star,' I have gained a new understanding of how to use the power of the Abyss of Calamity."

The 'Dark Star' was of an unattainable level. Jiang Ming obtained a vast amount of information from it with just one glance.

Although this information is disorganized and unsystematic, it is of a very high level.

Every piece of information is extremely valuable.

Even though it wasn't a systematic approach, Jiang Ming still profited greatly from it.

Some of the structures of the 'Heartfire Realm' are derived from this information.

With a thought, Jiang Ming quietly unleashed the power of the Abyss of Calamity towards one of the consciousnesses.

Within the Kingdom of the Giant Rock King.

The boundless darkness did not come from the outside world, but from the depths of his soul.

After experiencing various forms of mental torment, the Giant Rock King gradually regained consciousness. Although he couldn't escape it, maintaining some clarity of mind for a short period of time wasn't difficult.

But just as the Rock King was gradually regaining consciousness, a deeper, darker consciousness erupted within his soul.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"

The Giant Rock King roared madly, his aura and will surging, annihilating the entire divine kingdom within hundreds of thousands of miles around him into nothingness, leaving only a golden temple standing there.

A dark star quietly appeared in the consciousness of the Giant Rock King.

Upon seeing that dark star, endless pain surged through him. The intense pain blurred the Rock King's consciousness, and he collapsed into a coma.

"Whoo~"

Jiang Ming slowly exhaled and rubbed his temples.

"Using the Abyss of Calamity to imitate the Dark Star is still a bit too much, but the effect is indeed quite good." Jiang Ming could sense the Rock King's state when he was eroding it, and he was fairly satisfied with the effect.

“I used the power of the Abyss to replicate the ‘Dark Star’ that I had seen before, because it was only what I saw, not the real ‘Dark Star’.”

Therefore, its power is naturally far inferior to the original, but it's still more than enough to deal with some invincible kings.

Jiang Ming pondered.

……

Within the divine kingdom of the Giant Rock King, his enormous body floated silently above the shattered void, his eyes closed, and intense emotional fluctuations emanating from his body.

At this moment, in the deepest part of his consciousness, a silent transformation was taking place.

Jiang Ming used the power of 'Abyss of Calamity' as a guide to replicate the projection of 'Dark Star'.

This made the enslavement process, which should have been a protracted struggle, much easier.

After an unknown amount of time, the Giant Rock King slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were initially somewhat confused, but quickly became clear, yet this clarity carried an unprecedented gentleness and fervor.

He looked into the void, as if he could penetrate the barriers of the divine realm and see the sovereign in the darkness.

His massive body slowly bowed, and with utmost reverence, he paid homage to the empty space.

"Greetings, Master, Giant Rock."

His voice was deep, yet filled with a submissiveness that came from the depths of his soul.

……

The Divine Kingdom of Calamity, the Abyss Realm.

A slight smile appeared on Jiang Ming's lips.

"The results were even better than expected."

Jiang Ming whispered.

“Even if you only imitate the slightest bit of the ‘Supreme Star’, it will still be a qualitative improvement in the use of ‘Abyss of Calamity’.”

His mind raced again, and he set his sights on the next resurrected King of Kings, the Shadow King.

……

In the Zerg territory, the Shadow King, whose divine body had just been resurrected and was slightly weakened after stabilizing within his own divine realm, was preparing to draw divine power to recover when a deep and terrifying darkness suddenly descended.

The darkness did not devour, but rather seeped in, carrying with it a soul-chilling pain and an indescribable grandeur, directly affecting the core of his consciousness...

……

One, two, three...

Jiang Ming sat upright in the abyss, like a fisherman, following the invisible threads left by the 'Abyss of Calamity' and pulling in his net one by one.

Those invincible kings who were resurrected by the Zerg Alliance at great cost through time reversal, after a brief period of joy at being reborn, once again fell into bottomless darkness.

This process is not without its costs.

Even a tiny sliver of the simulated 'Dark Star' projection was a considerable burden on Jiang Ming's will.

However, his will has now reached the level of a true god, and his 'Heartfire Realm' is in its initial stages, with profound foundations, enough to support him in enslaving these dozen or so invincible kings.

When the last target, the Ancient Beast King, also lowered its arrogant head within its divine realm, Jiang Ming slowly withdrew his thoughts.

He closed his eyes slightly, sensing the dozen or so powerful and clear connections that had appeared on his soul level.

These invincible kings have now become his most loyal henchmen, lurking within the Zerg Alliance and serving as his deeply hidden pawns.

"The Zerg probably never dreamed that the power of their resurrection would ultimately be used for my purposes."

Jiang Ming thought to himself.

These hidden pieces may play an unexpected role in future inter-tribal conflicts. (End of Chapter)
