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

Inside the Temple of the Giant Axe, the unfolded star map seemed to condense the entire cosmic ocean into a small space.

The densely packed wormhole markers, danger zone markings, sphere of influence demarcations, and special resource point markings are far more detailed than any map accumulated by humankind over countless years.

The Lord of Chaos City's eyes flashed with a sharp light.

"This map is more than a hundred times more detailed than the version we drew ourselves!"
Many unknown areas have been explored and marked, even the hidden paths deep within the three major forbidden zones have been recorded!

The founder of the giant axe was breathing slightly faster as he pointed to an area on the star map known as the 'Black Abyss'.

"I almost perished here when I explored it back then. It turns out there's a hidden 'Thousand Ring Passage' that can bypass the most dangerous core area."

He stared intently at Jiang Ming.

"Heartfire, where did this map come from? Its value is immeasurable!"

Jiang Ming nodded calmly.

"Obtained by chance. Teacher, founder of the Great Axe, this map is of great significance to our human race, and I wish to contribute it to our people."

"Good! Great!"

The founder of the giant axe laughed.

"With this map, our human race's exploration efficiency in the cosmic ocean will increase by at least several dozen times! The risk of perishing will also be greatly reduced! Heartfire, you have made an unparalleled contribution to the human race!"

Even the Lord of Chaos City couldn't hide his excitement.

"According to the rules of clan contribution, this map is more valuable than several supreme treasures!"

No wonder the founder of the Giant Axe and the Lord of Chaos City were so excited.

The map that Jiang Ming took out came from the Purple Moon Holy Land. The exact time that the Purple Moon Holy Land existed is difficult to ascertain, but it has existed for at least more than a hundred reincarnations.

Over such a long period of time, the Purple Moon Holy Land's exploration of the Cosmic Sea reached an incredible level.

For example, the map in Jiang Ming's hand marks more than a dozen locations where supreme treasures have been born.

These locations, where supreme treasures have been born, may very well see new supreme treasures emerge after countless years.

The locations where other second-tier supreme treasures are born number in the thousands!
This sounds especially incredible. The preciousness of a supreme treasure goes without saying, and the map of the Purple Moon Holy Land actually records thousands of locations where supreme treasures have been found.

But if you actually do the math, you'll see that this is a very reasonable number. Over hundreds of reincarnations, each reincarnation records dozens of locations of the most powerful treasures, which would amount to thousands of locations.

But how many supreme treasures are born in a single cycle of reincarnation?
Jiang Ming even suspected that the cosmic sea map in the hands of the Golden Valley Master might not be the complete map possessed by the Purple Moon Holy Land.

"Indeed, Heartfire, your map is of immeasurable value."

The founder of Giant Axe also nodded in agreement.

"According to the contribution of the ethnic group, the ethnic group has nothing of sufficient value to compare with your map."

The Lord of Chaos City spoke solemnly.

Generally, powerful individuals contribute treasures to their clans, and the clans will reciprocate with corresponding contributions; this was the case even for the founder of the giant axe.

However, the founder of the giant axe often contributed treasures to the tribe, but almost never exchanged them for treasures from the tribe.

It could even be said that most of the treasures within the tribe originated from the contributions of the founder of the giant axe.

However, the map that Jiang Ming has contributed is of too great value, and the clan does not have enough equivalent items to exchange for it.

"Heartfire."

The founder of the giant axe suppressed his excitement and looked solemnly at Jiang Ming.

"According to the tribe's rules, for contributing such a valuable map, you can make corresponding requests. Whether it's treasures, resources, or something else."

Jiang Ming shook his head slightly.

"I owe my current status to the care and support of my community, so it is only natural that I should contribute to the community. I ask for nothing in return."

The Lord of Chaos City nodded approvingly, recalling his first meeting with Jiang Ming. Today, Jiang Ming was no longer the naive youth he once was; he had grown into a pillar of the human race, possessing not only strength but also a heart dedicated to serving his people. Seeing this filled the Lord of Chaos City with great satisfaction.

"Those who have made contributions must be rewarded, and without rules, nothing can be accomplished."

Although Jiang Ming had no request, the founder of the giant axe did not immediately agree, but continued to speak.

"This map is worth a million Treasure Points, and you can exchange it for anything in the clan's treasure vault."

"That makes sense, Jiang Ming, you should accept it."

The Lord of Chaos City said with a smile.

"Yes."

Jiang Ming nodded in agreement.

In just a hundred years, Jiang Ming returned to the original universe from the black-patterned stone pillar space within the inner domain of the cosmic ship.

This takes several times longer than the previous method.

After Jiang Ming returned to the primordial universe, there was still some time before the primordial star was activated, but Jiang Ming was not in a hurry.

Instead, they returned to Earth.

Earth, China Region, a coastal city.

The afterglow of the setting sun spilled onto the golden sand, and the waves gently lapped against the shore.

A little girl, about five or six years old, was running barefoot on the beach, her silvery laughter carried on the wind.

She wore a simple white dress, her long black hair tied into two small braids, bouncing joyfully as she ran. On her exquisitely beautiful face, her pure, star-like eyes curved into crescent moons.

"Dad, look at the castle I built!"

The little girl pointed to the crooked but well-made sandcastle on the beach and excitedly shouted towards the distance.

There, a young man dressed in casual clothes was sitting on a beach chair, holding a book in his hand. Hearing this, he looked up and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

It was Jiang Ming.

Beside him, Ai Chen, dressed in a light blue dress, sat gracefully, her gaze always following the small figure on the beach.

More than four thousand years have passed. If it were an ordinary human being, they would have long since grown into adults, or even become powerful figures.

However, Jiang Yue only grew to the appearance of a five or six-year-old, and her mental age was similar to that of a five or six-year-old child.

This is Jiang Yue's innate extraordinary quality; her birth was not simple, which makes her completely different from ordinary human children.

Ordinary humans use years to measure time, but Jiang Yue uses five hundred years to measure spring, five hundred years to measure winter, and two thousand years to measure one year.

As per the plan agreed upon with Ai Chen, they transformed into an ordinary Earth couple and accompanied Jiang Yue as she grew up.

Although Jiang Yue was born with extraordinary abilities, unlike ordinary humans, no one would notice this due to Jiang Ming's twisted will.

"Yue'er is really amazing."

Jiang Ming put down his book, walked to the sandcastle, squatted down, and examined it carefully.

"However, this area can be reinforced, otherwise it will be washed away when the tide comes in."

"Then Dad will help me!"

Jiang Yue held Jiang Ming's hand, her eyes sparkling.

The father and daughter busied themselves on the beach, while Ai Chen watched from afar with a smile on her lips.

Just then, Jiang Ming's expression suddenly paused.

'The Primordial Star is finally about to open.' (End of Chapter)
