Swallowing the Stars, Hu Yanbo's Pre-Godhood

Due to the arrival of Huyan Bo, a powerful figure who had been granted the title of King, the spaceship did not wait for the remaining passengers who had not yet arrived. Under the control of the Sky Axe King, it set off ahead of schedule and headed towards the mysterious passage leading to the primordial universe.

After the journey through the dark universe ended, the spaceship once again entered that strange world.

The universe is evolving, and the initial universe was a small universe in the early stages of evolution.

Vast spatial rifts can be seen everywhere in the sky, with crystalline threads of the fundamental laws of the universe flowing along their edges, striving to heal the damage.

Repair, crack, repair again... the cycle repeats endlessly, as if depicting the mysteries of the universe's birth and growth, magnificent and boundless.

Chaos City remains the only ancient city in this primordial universe.

The spaceship came to a stop above Chaos City, and the hatch opened.

Hu Yanbo then transformed into a streak of light and flew straight away, without joining the other newly arrived geniuses to listen to the reception envoy's explanation.

He was already familiar with this place.

They soon came to a palace that was entirely black, with a cold and austere style, and whose entrance plaque was still hanging empty.

This palace was built before he left Chaos City, but at that time he was not famous and had not received any title, so the plaque was unnamed.

Now, upon my return, everything is different.

Huyan Bo hovered in front of the mansion gate, looking up at the empty plaque, and slowly raised his right hand, pointing his fingers like a sword.

Each stroke contains a unique rule and charm!

Soul! Annihilation! King!

Three ancient and grand, yet understated, divine characters were firmly engraved on the originally empty plaque, like a brand!

From then on, another palace of the strong was added to the Immortal Mansion area of ​​Chaos City – the Soul Annihilation King's Mansion!

After Hu Yanbo inscribed his title and crossed two levels of the Heavenly Bridge, he headed towards the land of the Chaos Stele!

Its return, though it didn't do much, still stirred up ripples on the calm surface of the lake within Chaos City.

In the virtual universe, within the exclusive communication space for King-level experts in Chaos City, several powerful thoughts were conversing with each other.

"After this Soul Extinction King went out for training, he returned and immediately crossed the 20th level of the Heavenly Bridge."

"It seems that even setting aside the rumors about the great treasure that are spreading like wildfire among the demon race, based solely on this strength, Soul Extinction King is definitely among the top in our human race's 100,000 kings!" A king-level expert started the conversation.

Nearly two thousand years have passed since the Battle of the Secret Realm.

The specific details of that earth-shattering battle have long been analyzed by various forces through various channels.

Although the truth is not yet fully clear, some reasonable speculations have gradually become a consensus.

It is generally believed that although he successfully forced the Blade Mantis King to his death and captured the Ink Prison King alive, it is also true that his own divine body was seriously damaged by the two powerful figures' counterattacks in their final moments.

The rumors circulating within the demon clan that Huyan Bo possessed a great treasure also seemed increasingly credible.

In retrospect, that treasure is likely an extremely valuable defensive artifact.

That's what led to that seemingly unbelievable victory.

"Hmph, speaking of precious treasures, Emperor Yuan is far too biased towards this disciple! I remember when Soul Extinction King left Chaos City, he was at most a low-level King!"

"Such strength is enough to be granted a treasure for protection? I've been stuck at the peak of the King-level for countless epochs, and my teacher hasn't even mentioned rewarding me with a decent treasure!" This was the Flame Hammer King, whose divine body resembled a humanoid volcano, radiating violent heat.

"Flame Hammer, complaining is useless."

"The bestowal of such a treasure is both a blessing and a curse. It was only through this treasure that he reached the limit of being a king. Who knows how many foreign tribes, or even some of his own kind with ulterior motives, are eyeing Huyan Bo?"

"Look, his current decision to hide in Chaos City is truly the smartest and most worry-free choice at the moment."

"At least here, I can cultivate in peace and comfort," said the Ice-Eyed King, whose divine body was crystal clear.

.....

Hu Yanbo was unaware that in the virtual universe, more and more powerful beings who had been granted the title of King were discussing his return to Chaos City and even setting up betting games.

At this moment, he was having a lively conversation with Lord Kanderi, who was guarding the Chaos Monument, exchanging some insights on cultivation.

Not long after, the bronze gate slowly opened. After everyone inside had come out, Hu Yanbo nodded slightly to Kandri, then transformed into a stream of light and flew into the meditation chamber belonging to the "Nine Universes Chaos Stele".

The secret chamber was empty, with only the huge stone tablet shrouded in chaotic air currents standing in the center, exuding the supreme Daoist charm that expounded the fundamental laws of the universe.

Hu Yanbo's gaze, just as it had when he first came to Chaos City, fell on the sixth picture.

The mysteries of the galaxy manifest in different moods and details depending on the individual's emphasis on their understanding of the three profound mysteries of the laws of space (blockade, strangulation, and teleportation).

Hu Yanbo focused his mind and immersed his consciousness in meditation.

In his eyes, this galaxy was more of a network of extremely sharp 'spatial strangulation' forces, with terrifying power capable of tearing, cutting, and annihilating everything in its twinkling starlight.

However, many areas of this entire galaxy still appeared blurry in his perception.

"At the end of the sixth picture lies the complete understanding of the three great mysteries!" Hu Yanbo knew this perfectly well.

His gaze involuntarily moved upwards and landed on the seventh picture.

The seventh picture shows a strangely shaped giant beast!

It sits in the picture, and its various parts seem to correspond to different mysteries of the laws of space, yet they are all integrated, exuding an primordial aura that transcends all changes in space!

Unlike his initial bewilderment and confusion when he first viewed this painting thousands of years ago, Hu Yanbo now has a much clearer understanding of it!

"This seventh picture no longer explains the in-depth exploration of a single profound mystery, but rather how to perfectly connect and integrate the three profound mysteries that have been thoroughly understood!"

Hu Yanbo was deeply shocked.

"Blockade, strangulation, and teleportation are not isolated elements! They are integral components of the complete 'Laws of Space'!"

"The seventh diagram guides us to integrate these three cornerstones into one, ultimately constructing a complete and stable framework of spatial laws!!"

"This is the Space Venerable!" Hu Yanbo stared at the strange, unified spatial beast in the seventh picture, his mind suddenly clear, and at the same time, a strong desire surged up.

A thought uncontrollably popped into his head: "After I finish fulfilling my mission, I wonder if I can use the system to pre-draw the complete spatial laws and directly advance to the level of a Universe Venerable?!"

This idea is incredibly tempting!

If he succeeds, he will rise to the top and truly join the ranks of the universe's strongest beings!

Among the billions of races in the universe, there are countless peak-level kings who have fully comprehended the three great mysteries of space, but the final step has trapped countless geniuses!

Once trapped, it lasted for hundreds of millions of years!

Even powerful figures like Zhenyan King, Tianyu King, and Yan King, who were close to creating the ultimate techniques of the Universe Venerable, failed to integrate the three profound mysteries into one.

"I don't want to end up like them, troubled by this fusion process for endless years!" Hu Yanbo thought to himself.
