Swallowing the Stars: Heart of the Martial God

Chapter 30 The Vanished Boy

"Give it to me—break it!"

The power of the third move of the Vulcan's Domain Blade, "Blade Domain Whirlwind Kill," was fully unleashed, transforming into a death storm with a diameter of one kilometer. Wherever it passed, the mammoth herd was like a wheat field being harvested by an invisible scythe.

One thousand, two thousand, three thousand... Blood congealed into blood rain in the void, and the wails of the giant beasts accompanied the flashing of the energy screen of the leaderboard.

His points skyrocketed like a nuclear explosion.

"This is impossible!" The genius from the Yan Divine Kingdom staggered backward.

A tsunami of cheers erupted from the Qianwu Kingdom camp. Lingyue and Lingxue, each with tears streaming down their faces, grabbed their father's hands: "I knew it! Third brother wouldn't lose!"

“I told you there wouldn’t be any problems.” Ling Tianhe nodded excitedly.

On Tianzhou Island, all the immortals who were interested in watching the match witnessed this scene.

"This kid's future is limitless, he made even faster progress under crisis and pressure."

"What a pity, that old fellow Zhulong King is just hogging the job and not doing his job, he just has to waste such a fine piece of material."

"Come on, with the talent this kid has shown, even the cosmic venerables will be tempted. Let's look at other geniuses instead," someone said more rationally.

At this moment, Cao Benqi's points surged once again, reaching 2777770000.

"Our Yan Shen Universe Kingdom's Yan Shen is truly invincible; he has already reached the third level!" On the Giant Axe Plaza, the geniuses of the Yan Shen Universe Kingdom cheered.

"Ling Xuan has also reached the second level." The genius from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom also noticed that Ling Xuan's score had reached 17777770000.

"Tch, isn't that still a whole floor behind in progress? The gap is already there, the outcome is decided."

The second level, with its ten thousand nine-headed pythons, is far stronger than the blood-haired mammoth.

The Blood-haired Mammoth is merely a ferocious beast, with an intelligence far lower than that of the Nine-Headed Python, a member of the demon race, and its tactics are simplistic.

However, the nine-headed python was able to attack Ling Xuan more flexibly.

However, the difference in individual strength between the two was not significant. Ling Xuan, who had successfully broken through, had greatly increased his strength. He was already very agile, so this level of improvement did not have a significant impact on him. He used some techniques to reach the third level.

The third layer consists of a thousand metallic life form warriors of the Dhara race.

The liquid metal bodies of the thousand Tuoluo warriors shimmered with a cold luster, and the patterns on their surfaces seemed to flow with the laws of metal. A sharp aura swept over them, causing Ling Xuan to feel a stinging sensation on his face from afar.

"Burning Wave Slash!"

Ling Xuan roared and swung his sword, striking first. Seven overlapping crimson waves surged forward like a volcanic eruption.

The crimson blade light, wreathed in raging flames, was like a giant axe that split the heavens, instantly cleaving the five front-row warriors in two, along with their spears.

With Ling Xuan's lack of martial ethics and his sneak attack, the battle officially began, and the remaining nearly a thousand Tuoluo warriors swarmed forward.

"Well done!" Ling Xuan roared, lightly touching the ground with his toes. He unleashed the Soaring Dragon Body Technique, transforming into thousands of illusory bodies that attracted the attention of most of the warriors. His Blade Domain Whirlwind Slash unleashed three blade beams like serpents emerging from their holes, entangling the three warriors on the left.

The three Tuoluo warriors simultaneously raised their golden spears to parry, and the fire and metal laws on their three-pointed double-edged swords collided violently, bursting into dazzling sparks.

Ling Xuan flicked his wrist, and the blade flashed like lightning, shredding the golden bodies of the three warriors into pieces.

However, a piercing metallic scraping sound suddenly rang out on the battlefield.

Not far away, twenty warriors stomped their feet simultaneously, and the Law of Metal spread along the ground, transforming into golden chains that pierced towards Ling Xuan.

Ling Xuan spun around and swung his sword, unleashing eight layers of fiery waves that collided violently with the golden chain. Crimson flames and golden light intertwined, illuminating the surrounding space as bright as day.

The Flame Domain and the Metal Domain collided violently, causing the air to explode under the strain.

Ling Xuan's eyes sharpened as he noticed the soldiers' positions on the right were subtly shifting.

The three formed a triangular formation, and the patterns on their bodies lit up simultaneously, creating a unique secret pattern. At the same time, their golden domains overlapped like a honeycomb, condensing into a rotating blade wheel in the void.

Without hesitation, Ling Xuan unleashed another slash of burning waves. The crimson waves collided with the golden blade wheel, and the powerful impact distorted the space itself.

Ling Xuan gritted his teeth, activating his Flame Domain at full power, engaging in a fierce tug-of-war with the Metal Domain.

The three-pointed double-edged sword danced in his hands, creating a series of sword shadows.

Every time he killed someone, the spears of the surrounding warriors would thrust at him in unpredictable ways, one spear after another accompanied by the sharpness of the Law of Metal, interrupting Ling Xuan's momentum and forcing him to constantly move around.

Ling Xuan transformed into a crimson dragon shadow, weaving and leaping through the forest of spears. Blades clashed repeatedly with spears, the clanging of metal echoing incessantly. Flames and golden light scattered, each exchange seemingly tearing space apart.

When he forcefully cleaved through the second triangular battle formation, an unexpected change occurred.

Hundreds of warriors simultaneously plunged their spears into the ground, and the Law of Metal burrowed into the earth like a living thing, instantly causing hundreds of sharp spikes to rise from the ground.

Ling Xuan soared into the air, and suddenly a large net of the Law of Metal, formed by the resonance of the laws of thirty battle formation units, descended from above.

He roared and unleashed the full power of his Blade Domain Whirlwind Kill. The three-pointed double-edged blade spun wildly, shattering the golden net while fiercely battling the golden laws descending from above.

The moment he landed, Ling Xuan discovered that the battlefield had transformed into a honeycomb-like structure.

Six warriors form a hexagonal unit, and the threads of law between the units intertwine to form a flowing golden maze.

Each of his advances triggers a chain attack from adjacent units.

Flames and golden light turned the entire space into a chaotic mess.

Ling Xuan fought with increasing ferocity, but when he broke through the seventh unit, he triggered the ultimate change in the battle formation.

The remaining warriors' golden bodies suddenly melted into liquid, reforming in mid-air into a ring-shaped wall of blades that rotated 360 degrees at high speed, as if capable of shredding everything into pieces.

The third level of the "Wandering Dragon" movement technique, Dragon Battle in the Wild, was pushed to its limit. It weaved through the dense blade light, and the three-pointed double-edged sword clashed wildly with the blade wall. Each collision shattered the dragon shadow, and streams of sharp power were transmitted from the three-pointed double-edged sword to Ling Xuan, leaving several wounds on his body.

However, the ring-shaped blade wall suddenly accelerated, transforming into a giant golden wheel that devoured everything, crushing towards Ling Xuan.

"He's finished. He's already pushed the third level of 'Wandering Dragon' and 'Blade Domain Whirlwind Kill' to their limits. It's all in vain if he can't break through the battle formation formed by these Tuoluo warriors." The Qianwu Kingdom Lord shook his head as he looked at the battle. "However, with this kind of performance, he should at least be worth 1.5 Treasure Points. What a loss. Old Man Zhulong, why don't you let Ling Xuan withdraw from the competition? He'll definitely win the next Virtual Universe Company's Genius Battle, and he'll definitely be worth a Treasure Point then. He's still too young."

"Dream on! The first and second places are both Giant Axe Secret Realm, what's the difference?" Candle Dragon King cursed and was about to leave the channel.

The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom pursed his lips and didn't say anything; he was just joking.

Withdrawal from the competition?
Venerable Beiyan must not block his doorstep and make a scene.

The geniuses selected through the Genius Battle will work under the Venerable Master before they break through to the Venerable Master level and become Immortals. This serves as a way to supplement the Venerable Masters' manpower.

If someone with Ling Xuan's Venerable caliber were to be tricked into withdrawing from the competition, Venerable Bei Yan would definitely turn against him.

As the Venerable Qianwu had predicted, the power of the golden wheel was overwhelming for Ling Xuan. The defense formed by the flame domain and endless blade light was instantly shattered, and the next second, Ling Xuan's figure was swallowed up.

"Alas, what a pity." Venerable Qianwu sighed. Ling Xuan's biggest weakness was that he had not cultivated for long enough. He was only in his early thirties. If he could cultivate for a hundred years like Cao Benqi, he might actually be able to pass the seven-level trial tower.

"Huh?" But the next second they realized something was wrong.

If a contestant is eliminated, the Tuoluo metal warriors inside the Trial Tower should return to calm, and the live stream should be cut off.

Although the golden ship has disappeared, the live broadcast remains.

This indicates that the virtual universe determined the battle was not over and Ling Xuan was not eliminated. However, the Tuoluo Clan's battle formation should have judged Ling Xuan as having been killed under the current battle situation, thus breaking the formation.

"What exactly happened?" At this moment, whether it was Venerable Qianwu, the immortals watching the match on Tianzhou Island, or some supreme beings secretly following the match, everyone was wondering what had happened.

First of all, it is absolutely impossible for a virtual universe to be misjudged or hacked.

Unless they're dreaming right now.

Yes, these super beings who have lived for countless years, whose brain capacity is immeasurable and whose computing power is comparable to that of intelligent life, would rather doubt themselves than doubt the virtual universe system.

Unless he's lost his mind.

"Could it be a method that none of us know about?"

"Zhulong, what's going on?" the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom asked hurriedly.

At the same time, emails poured in like a tidal wave.

The Dragon King spread his hands awkwardly, "I don't know either."
