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

"According to the clan's intelligence, the No. 2 Black Pattern Stone Pillar has the fastest time flow and the most powerful beings gathered around it."

Jiang Ming's gaze swept over the figures sitting cross-legged in the void, like statues.

There are many powerful individuals cultivating in seclusion within the space of the black-patterned stone pillar. However, these cultivators all maintain an unspoken rule: no one dares to make a move here.

Jiang Ming's will has reached the limit of a true god. If he wants to seek the opportunity to break through to the Void True God, he must face the most powerful impact of his will.

"Get a feel for the rules here first."

Jiang Ming moved swiftly, flying towards a black-patterned stone pillar numbered 7.

As the distance closed, the impact of his will gradually transformed from a stream into a tsunami, crashing against his consciousness wave after wave.

But Jiang Ming remained steadfast and unmoved, like a reef.

He could even be distracted by observing the naturally formed, extremely intricate dark gold patterns on the surface of the stone pillars.

Those secret patterns seemed to contain some kind of 'grammar' of the universe's origin, changing and flowing every moment, and the fluctuations and impacts of will they emitted intertwined to form a unique 'field'.

"No wonder it is said that meditating here can also help one comprehend the laws."

These runes... are practically fragments of the 'source code' of the universe's very rules.

In fact, Jiang Ming was mistaken. He was able to understand the secret patterns of the black-patterned stone pillar because of the high-dimensional perspective brought by the 'Origin of Chaos'.

Even if other powerful beings in the universe spent countless epochs, their gains would be meager.

Jiang Ming paused for a moment, sensing the approximately 80 times faster flow of time here.

One year outside is eighty years inside.

But this acceleration is of little significance to him, as the flow of time in the Abyss Realm is already terrifying enough.

He wanted the ultimate pressure.

"Go to pillar number 2."

With a firm resolve, Jiang Ming transformed into a streak of light, teleporting continuously through space.

The space in the area of ​​the black-veined stone pillars is not completely solidified; one cannot teleport only when approaching the core of the pillars within a certain range.

This gave him the opportunity to explore quickly.

The closer Jiang Ming got to pillar number 2, the more powerful auras he sensed.

Some were as flamboyant as raging fire, some as restrained as ice, and a few had obscure and profound auras, clearly indicating that they were old monsters who had accelerated their cultivation over a long period of time by taking advantage of the flow of time in this place.

Jiang Ming ignored the other powerful beings in the universe. His goal in coming here was very clear: to find a breakthrough opportunity by using the pressure of the black-patterned stone pillar's will.

When Jiang Ming arrived at the No. 2 black-patterned stone pillar at a distance of about 100,000 light-years, the impact of his will had already become like a tangible millstone, beginning to truly 'grind' his core will.

The intensity of the impact on will here is enough to make a third-order universe master concentrate fully to resist it; the slightest distraction will damage their will.

The speed of time flow has reached an astonishing 1200 times!
"not enough."

Jiang Ming's eyes were resolute as he continued to delve deeper.

Eighty thousand light-years... The intensity of the impact on will is tripled, and the flow of time is 1600 times faster.

A faint 'seven-colored halo' formed by the materialization of will impact began to appear in the void. These halos appeared beautiful, but in reality, they contained terrifying spiritual destructive power. Ordinary cosmic venerables would have their souls annihilated upon touching them.

Jiang Ming's True God Limit Will began to feel pressure, as if he were in the deep sea, surrounded by endless oppression from all sides.

Fifty thousand light-years... The intensity of the impact of will is ten times that of the outer perimeter!
The speed of time flow has exceeded 2000 times!
This is already the limit of an ordinary fourth-order universe master. Jiang Ming sensed only three auras residing here, each exuding the pressure of a fifth-order universe master.

They had clearly noticed Jiang Ming, this 'newcomer,' but no one spoke; they simply cast scrutinizing glances at him.

The fact that they were able to penetrate this deep without the protection of any supreme treasure is itself proof of their strength.

Jiang Ming stopped in his tracks, hovered in mid-air, and closed his eyes.

He began to actively release his will defenses, allowing the terrifying will impact, like the collapse of a galaxy, to directly wash over his core will!

"BOOM!!!" It felt as if billions of thunderbolts exploded simultaneously deep within my mind!
That was an attack that transcended the material realm, a test that directly targeted the very essence of existence.

Jiang Ming's core will shone with brilliant light, like divine iron thrown into a furnace of purgatory, trembling and humming under the destructive onslaught...

But Jiang Ming's will had already been tempered and made incredibly resilient through countless trials.

Although the pressure was great, it was still within Jiang Ming's tolerance.

"The pressure... is still a little short!"

Jiang Ming took another step forward!
This step spanned five thousand light-years!
The intensity of the impact on willpower increased by 50%!

The time flow rate reaches 2300 times!
"Ong!"

Even with Jiang Ming's strong will, he felt a moment of dizziness and a constant buzzing in his head.

On the surface of his divine body, golden-red radiance burst forth involuntarily, and the third form of the 'Myriad Transformations Returning to the Void Divine Body' was activated to passively defend against the energy turbulence on the material plane caused by the violent fluctuations in his will.

This place has already surpassed the area where only a fifth-tier top-level universe master can barely stand!
The will of a fifth-tier top-level universe master has basically reached the stage of the strongest being in the universe.

Some fifth-order universe lords possess wills that are no less powerful than those of the weaker universe's strongest beings.

However, within Jiang Ming's perception range, there was an aura as deep as the ocean lingering in the depths. The owner of that aura seemed slightly surprised by him, this uninvited guest, and cast a gentle yet extremely penetrating thought upon him.

Jiang Ming had no time to respond and took another step forward.

……

Rumble~~

Jiang Ming devoted all his attention to resisting the impact on his will.

The will of a true god was pushed to its limit at this moment.

Like a spring compressed to its limit, it accumulates unimaginable power of resistance.

Deep within the core of his will, the sliver of insight that had touched the threshold of the Void God began to change under this extreme pressure.

At this moment, the passage of time in Jiang Ming's area had reached an astonishing 4700 times.

……

The space of the black-veined stone pillars, the area of ​​pillar number 2, at a time flow rate of approximately 1500 times.

Several towering figures, like ancient reefs, hovered amidst the waves of seven-colored aura of will.

They are all cosmic masters who have been tempered here for a long time, from different eras and forces. Even the weakest of them has a will strength equivalent to that of the strongest in the ordinary universe.

"Hmm? Another newcomer has come to this depths."

A figure shrouded in hazy starlight stirred with a thought, glancing at the golden-red figure steadily moving forward in the distance.

"The aura is unfamiliar. I've never seen them before. Are they from the Eastern Emperor Holy Land or the Purple Moon Holy Land?"

"To reach the edge of this 'strongest in the universe,' one's will must be at least at the top of the fifth rank, but the aura is unfamiliar. One should be a strong person from one of the two holy lands."

“Just watch. This is no longer a place for child’s play. Further ahead, it is a place that only the ‘Will of a True God’ can truly withstand. If he doesn’t know when to advance and retreat, hmph… even a powerful expert from a holy land will suffer.”

Several ancient beings exchanged thoughts, their expressions carrying a hint of scrutiny and indifference.

Those who can cultivate here for a long time are all people with extremely strong will and a heart as firm as a rock. I have seen too many strong people try to break through their limits here, but in the end, they all met with bad results.

However, what happened next stirred up their calm minds.

The golden-red figure paused briefly at the 'Universe's Strongest Level', as if merely sensing the impact that was enough to sting the soul of a fifth-tier Universe Lord, before taking another step.

Take a step, and you're in!

That's the strongest region in the universe!

Boom! (End of Chapter)
