Swallowing the Stars: The Supreme Being of All Heavens

Chapter 388 The Creator of Ancient Lei Star

A figure suddenly appeared in Holy Mountain City, wearing battle armor with a deep, starry color. He was tall and straight, with snow-white hair and bright, clear crimson eyes. It was Suk.

Silently gazing at the familiar, unchanged cityscape, Suk's eyes drifted across the past like fleeting shadows. He murmured, "Three thousand years have passed, and I'm back again."

This holy mountain city holds great significance for Suk.

The Six Nirvana cultivation secrets were obtained from the abyss beneath the Holy Mountain City.

Back then, Suk was a naive teenager who had just come out of his planet to explore the universe. The whole world seemed so mysterious, vast, and awe-inspiring to him.

In the blink of an eye, six thousand years have passed, and he has become the most monstrous genius realm lord of the human race in this era, possessing the formidable strength to grasp the sun and moon and pluck stars from the sky.

A dreamlike feeling suddenly welled up in my heart, and looking back on the past six thousand years, it felt like being in the clouds.

"Star Vine, you should remember this place, right?" Suk smiled and touched the Death Star Vine Battle Suit that was attached to his body.

A vine extended from the battle suit and swayed slightly.

Returning to this familiar place evoked many emotions.

Just then, a figure appeared in Suk's line of sight.

She was a woman with a graceful figure, wearing a golden robe, and possessing the dignified air of someone who had long held a high position.

"It's her." Suk's eyes flashed.

Years have passed, and the former young city lord has become more mature and beautiful, and her strength has also increased to the ninth level of the Hengxing star.

Of course, more than half of my lifespan has passed.

"It feels like a dream." Upon seeing his "old friend," Suk could only sigh slightly.

They then infiltrated the passage from Holy Mountain City that led to the Thunder Abyss underground.

"Ancestor, what's wrong?" Inside the city lord's mansion, in the corridor, seeing the woman in the golden robe suddenly stop and look outside, a tall and aloof girl among the people beside her frowned and asked softly.

"It's nothing." The woman in the golden robe withdrew her gaze, suppressed the strange emotion that had just arisen in her heart, and stepped forward again.

Standing before the Thunder Abyss once more, Suk surveyed the sea of ​​lightning that filled his entire field of vision, feeling the incredibly restrained yet terrifyingly terrifying streaks of lightning that roamed freely, while simultaneously sensing the subtle, almost imperceptible, suppression of space.

He said softly, "Even spatial fluctuations are blocked here, so it seems that teleportation is impossible."

Suk didn't think much of it, nor did he intend to test the power of the thunder sea. He stood on the edge of the cliff and began to circulate the Six Nirvana Technique.

Rumble—the sea of ​​thunder parted on its own, revealing a majestic and ancient stone gate, a thousand meters high, suspended above the abyss. Six mysterious patterns were carved on the stone gate.

All six patterns have lit up, shining brightly.

"Six Nirvanas." Suk's eyes flickered slightly again as he looked at the stone gate, scrutinizing the six paintings. This time, he examined them more carefully than ever before, not missing a single detail, and even using the power of the world to penetrate them. However, after a long while, he still couldn't figure anything out.

Shaking his head, Suk took a step and flashed to the front of the huge stone gate. As the stone gate rippled, the space distorted and Suk's figure disappeared without a trace.

It was still that mysterious, dark space.

Suk looked around at the boundless darkness.

He murmured to himself, "This is my fourth time here." He glanced at the unfathomable darkness around him but didn't speak. He knew that the mysterious being in the darkness must know he had arrived.

Sure enough, a short while later, a series of clattering footsteps came from the darkness.

Footsteps? Suk was slightly taken aback and looked in the direction from which the sound came.

Soon, a silhouette emerged from the frozen darkness as if rising from the water.

It was a tall, humanoid machine, standing silently. Its body was large and full of metallic texture, exuding a cold aura.

However, what is most striking is the unique crystal hair at the back of its head.

Strands of hair, like crystal braids, hung down its back, resembling chains, all the way to the ground, where they joined together to form a thick, long scorpion-like tail that trailed on the ground.

Its face has only one vertical pupil, which gleams with an eerie silver light in the darkness.

"Is this a mechanical race?" Upon seeing this tall, humanoid robot, Suk immediately thought of the mechanical race he had encountered on the extraterrestrial battlefield.

A brief silence fell over the room.

Then the mysterious robot spoke, the same cold voice that Suk had heard coming from the darkness before.

"You did it!"

It was such a simple sentence, spoken without any inflection, but Suk sensed a strange and complex emotion hidden within it.

"My lord, I have reached the sixth level of Nirvana and have come as agreed," Suk said respectfully, suppressing his surprise.

Then he couldn't help but ask, "Sir, are you a member of the Machine Race?"

The Machine Race—that's humanity's enemy!

Of course, things can't be counted that way, because the mechanical race is essentially an intelligent life form, only it is a mechanical life form that has its own body and can continuously cultivate and become stronger.

In a sense, the intelligent life forms on Suk and Eloi, including the guardians of the original Tongtian Mountain in the virtual universe of the human race, are also intelligent life forms; they can also be considered mechanical beings.

However, they are loyal to humankind!

The silver-haired, one-eyed machine seemed to understand what Suk was trying to say. Its single eye flashed, and it calmly looked at Suk, saying, "I am not a member of the machine race. Long ago, I was merely an intelligent life form, always accompanying my master. Later, my master obtained a 'Heart of Evolution' from the machine race and bestowed it upon me, allowing me to possess a truly independent body and grow."

"Moreover, what you see now is not my original body, but an ordinary mechanical body that I created to house a sub-intelligent entity that guards Gulei Star," it replied.

Suk suddenly realized.

Because they are intelligent life forms, they can be easily controlled by a mechanical body. Many intelligent life forms use this method to control their physical bodies in reality.

However, using a metal body is a very common practice and does not offer much benefit to intelligent life itself.

The difficulty of cultivating and evolving intelligent life is extremely high. Unless one obtains an "Evolutionary Heart" and integrates it into a metal body, and then allows an intelligent life form to reside in it, then the intelligent life form will be 100% integrated with the metal body.

It's as if the soul corresponds to the body.

Intelligent life will also possess the most precious evolved physical bodies, and thus—

First, after 100% fusion with the body, the clarity of sensing the laws of the universe will also soar, at least reaching a level comparable to that of an ordinary human powerhouse. As for those without evolved bodies, like "Allah," they might be able to barely cultivate and comprehend, but even after billions of years, they can forget about becoming immortal! Only those with an evolved heart are qualified to become true mechanical powerhouses.

Second, as cultivation progresses, the bodies of mechanical race powerhouses will continuously strengthen, and their flexibility, toughness, and other aspects will become very perfect, just like a real physical body.

Therefore, the "heart of evolution" is very important.

Unfortunately, the Heart of Evolution is possessed only by the Machine Race.

This is the most important and core treasure of the Machine Race. Therefore, the Machine Race controls the "Heart of Evolution" very strictly, prohibiting any Machine Race member from selling the Heart of Evolution privately. This is already ingrained in the core of every Machine Race member. The Machine Race can produce a large number of Hearts of Evolution and cultivate individual Machine Race members—but they will absolutely not sell any Hearts of Evolution, no matter how high the price.

This makes it extremely difficult to purchase an Evolution Heart among many different races, including humans and demons!

Because obtaining the Heart of Evolution is extremely difficult.

Furthermore, the Heart of Evolution is possessed only by the Machine Race.

Therefore, the price of each Heart of Evolution has soared to hundreds of billions of Chaos Units, which is almost the entire fortune of a King-level Immortal God.

This means that unless one considers the intelligent life form that accompanies them as a brother in life and death, and is a super strong individual with enormous wealth, they simply cannot bear to buy an Evolution Heart.

"So this is an intelligent life form that has obtained the Heart of Evolution," Suk thought to himself. However, what appeared in front of Suk was not his original body, but a manufactured mechanical body. Although it was also very advanced, it was not a life form and did not exude any aura. Therefore, Suk naturally could not judge how strong this mechanical race was.

"You have reached the Sixth Nirvana Perfection, good, very good, excellent." The silver-haired, one-eyed robot looked at Suk, speaking excitedly, yet continuing in that cold, deathly flat voice: "I have already conveyed the news of your arrival to my master. If my master knew about you, he would be very happy."

It paused and continued, "You should have informed your master about your situation earlier, but since your master was adventuring outside the primordial universe and the avatar he left behind is asleep, you cannot disturb your master unless it is a truly critical moment."

Suk asked curiously, "I wonder who your master is..."

"You'll know when you see your master." The silver-haired, one-eyed robot didn't answer directly. "Wait a moment, my main body has already reported to the master, and instructions should be coming soon."

So Suk had no choice but to wait.

After waiting for a while, the silver-haired, one-eyed robot standing there suddenly blinked and looked at Suk: "Master has given the order."

A sense of tension rose in Suk's heart.

The silver-haired, one-eyed robot said, "My master asked me to take you there."

Buzz! A dazzling light suddenly shone in the darkness, enveloping the surroundings and including Suk and the robot.

"Don't resist, this is teleportation." Hearing the robot's words, Suk remained motionless.

Whoosh! The light carried them away.

Inside a magnificent palace, which appears to be only the size of a planet, a closer look by someone who understands the laws reveals that the space here has been distorted and is far more expansive than imagined.

The palace had no walls or dome, but its boundaries were endless gray mist, as if it were isolated from the real world.

Suk and the robot appeared simultaneously accompanied by a beam of teleportation light.

Upon appearing, Suk immediately surveyed his surroundings, but all he could see was an endless gray fog and the palace.

Whoosh, the gray fog ahead began to dissipate, revealing a stone path.

"Go there yourself, your master is waiting for you at the end," said the silver-haired, one-eyed robot.

Suk nodded, checked the virtual universe with his consciousness, found that it could still be connected, and then stepped towards the stone path.

After he went inside, the gray fog behind him rolled back in, obscuring the way he had come from.

Suk glanced back and continued walking forward. As he moved forward, the gray mist ahead began to part, allowing the road to extend further.

Suk clearly felt a strange change in the surrounding space-time as he moved forward.

As they continued walking, the gray fog ahead suddenly disappeared, revealing a bright and clear view.

A lake surrounded by mountains on three sides appeared before Suk, and on the shore of the lake was an inconspicuous wooden house, which was casually surrounded by a fence that was not even as tall as Suk's chest. Inside the fence, there seemed to be a vegetable garden with a patch of lush green vegetables.

Suk blinked, somewhat stunned by the sight; he had never expected to encounter such a situation.

Aside from the somewhat bizarre space-time, this place is entirely a scene for ordinary people, at least in Suk's perception.

Suddenly, a splash came from the lakeside, and a tall figure stood up from the water.

Its entire body is covered in black scales, six pairs of special horns grow from its head, and a ferocious long tail covered with thick barbs and scales slowly sways behind it.

The face, also covered in black scales, had a pair of long, narrow, and chilling golden eyes.

It looks like a monster.

Of course, Suk has seen many alien races, far more ferocious than this, so there's nothing to be surprised about.

However, his "bold appearance" was still a bit unexpected for Suk. In fact, when he saw the idyllic cottage, he thought the owner would be a handsome and powerful man.

The black monster twisted its head, shuddered slightly, and crackled like popping beans all over its body, as if it felt more comfortable. Then it looked at Suk opposite it, and a smile gradually spread across its terrifying face.

It doesn't make people feel friendly; instead, it sends chills down their spines.

Although the other party tried their best to suppress their aura, an indescribable fierce and violent aura still emanated from them.

"I never expected that my avatar in the primordial universe, which had been asleep for several years, would be awakened so quickly, especially because of a descendant who has cultivated the Six Nirvanas."

"Hmm, Jasker did a good job. It was worth supporting him to cultivate to the level of a Cosmic Venerable." He praised his mechanical intelligent life servant.

"May I ask if you are the master who created the Six Nirvanas?" Suk asked respectfully. He was still somewhat disappointed at this moment, because the person in front of him was clearly not the Mountain-Sitting Guest, nor was he the strongest being in any universe of the primordial universe that he knew.

So he was very surprised that this being could create such a miraculous secret technique as the Six Nirvanas.

Even if the other party is the ruler of the universe, it's impossible for them to do that, right?

"The star field where Gu Lei Star is located was indeed created by me, but the Six Nirvanas..." The monster glanced at Su Ke and laughed, "Let's not talk about that for now. Since you have cultivated the Six Nirvanas to perfection, then I have a great opportunity for you."

Hmm? Suk keenly noticed that the Six Nirvanas did not seem to be created by this powerful figure. Otherwise, he could simply admit it. A thought struck him: if the Six Nirvanas was not created by him, then where did he obtain it from?

"A great opportunity?" Su Ke asked, a hint of doubt in his voice.

The monster looked at him, nodded slightly, and smiled mysteriously. "You are only a realm lord, yet you have only spent six thousand years to cultivate the Six Nirvanas to perfection. You are qualified to come into contact with this opportunity."

Suk noticed a hint of fanaticism deep in his eyes.
