Swallowing the Stars: Analyzing All Things

In the underground chamber.

"Analyzing genes..."

Lin Yan fell into deep thought. The life substance carried in that secret bone had transformed his life gene level to twice its original level.

double--

With just a small leg bone, he crossed a chasm that ordinary humans would need great opportunities to overcome.

If he can find the corresponding "life material carrier" and analyze it using the stone tablet, can he further enhance the level of his life genes?

Three times, four times—or even more.

Images of those special life forms floated into Lin Yan's mind. They were born in the universe and possessed genetic levels that were dozens or even hundreds of times greater than those of ordinary humans.

Although humanity possesses immense potential, at the genetic level, it lags far behind those special life forms. Humans rely on cultivation and comprehension, on understanding the laws of nature, and on secret techniques and treasures...

Those special lives, from the moment they are born, stand at a height that most humans can never reach until they die.

unfair.

But the universe has never been fair.

"Secret Bones..."

Lin Yan muttered to himself, "The secret bones are related to the sacrificial temple, and the ruins of the sacrificial temple are mainly distributed in the eleventh outer battlefield."

The kingdom on the continent of Lanqi was just a small part of the countless territories once ruled by the Temple of Sacrifice.

Beyond that dark red continent, in that forgotten starry sky, there are probably even more relics, more secret bones, and more carriers of life.

To obtain more secret bones, we'll probably have to make a trip to the eleventh outer battlefield.

"No, we have to wait!"

But Lin Yan shook his head, suppressing the thought for the time being.

The eleventh extraterrestrial battlefield is not a place one can go to at will. Although he has now reached the peak of the Realm Lord and gained the recognition of the Water Law, he is still just an ant in front of immortal gods.

A slightly larger ant.

For now, he should continue to accumulate energy, analyze the "Void Instant Shadow Manual," and improve his understanding of spatial laws. Once he achieves some success in understanding spatial laws, his ability to survive will be greatly enhanced.

"Phew~"

Lin Yan took a deep breath, and a wisp of his consciousness resonated with the power of the world, entering the origin of the universe.

A milky-white earth unfolded in my consciousness, and the fluctuations of the Ten Great Laws echoed in my ears like a symphony.

"Splash splash~"

His consciousness pierced through the blue light of the Water Law and extended towards the direction of the Space Law. The fluctuations of the Space Law were more profound, vast, and elusive than those of the Water Law.

In Lin Yan's consciousness...

It was like a vast ocean, boundless and unfathomable. His consciousness darted cautiously through it, afraid of getting caught in the countless undercurrents and whirlpools.

……

outside world.

In the forty-seventh year of Lin Yan's seclusion, at the border between the human territory of the Lan You Universe Kingdom and the Feng Xuan Universe Kingdom.

This is a desolate star field, with sparse and dim stars and mostly lifeless and barren planets. Only in the distance, a few meteorite fragments occasionally drift by, adding a touch of life to this star field.

And this moment.

In this desolate star field, an exploration fleet is carrying out a routine reconnaissance mission.

"team leader.

"An unusual energy source has been detected."

Suddenly, inside one of the probe ships, a young explorer abruptly raised his head, his voice tinged with excitement.

"Where is the location?" The captain walked over, his gaze falling on the screen.

The young team member quickly tapped the screen, and a red dot was marked on the star map.

"About 30 million kilometers ahead, the energy fluctuations are very weak, but very peculiar—unlike any known type."

The captain frowned slightly.

In such a desolate star field, this type of unknown energy anomaly is uncommon. It could be some kind of rare mineral deposit, the residual energy of some ruin, or perhaps—

Some kind of danger!!!

"Send a survey ship over there first to investigate carefully," the captain decided after a moment's thought.

Then.

A small probe ship separated from the fleet and quickly headed toward the red dot of light.

"Approaching the target."

"Energy volatility is increasing."

"Scanning in progress..."

Suddenly, the data on the screen started fluctuating wildly, a piercing alarm blared in the cabin, and red warning lights flashed frantically.

"Energy surge!"

"Out of detection range! Retreat immediately—"

"Sizzle~"

Communication was interrupted momentarily.

The probe ship's signal disappeared directly from the command screen.

"What's going on?!" The captain suddenly stood up, his expression changing drastically.

"Signal interrupted... Unable to contact... Exploration vessel... Disappeared for unknown reasons..." The ship's AI voice rang out in the command room.

"Send a second one—"

Before the captain could finish speaking, a violent energy wave came from afar, like an exploding supernova, the terrifying energy waves spreading in all directions.

"Boom boom boom~"

Wherever this violent energy passed, space trembled violently, meteorites turned to dust, and even starlight was swallowed up.

"Retreat! Retreat now!"

The captain shouted at the top of his lungs.

The exploration fleet changed direction and hurriedly fled in a direction away from the energy fluctuations.

however.

The wave spread so rapidly that it almost instantly covered the exploration fleet, traversing the void, nebulae, and asteroid belts, extending further into the distance.

……

Tens of thousands of light-years away.

Within the territory of the Lanyou Universe Kingdom, on a prosperous administrative planet.

Skyscrapers stand tall, traffic flows like a river, and countless strange flying machines shuttle through the sky, leaving behind trails of white contrails.

This is an important administrative star in the Lanyou Universe Kingdom, where many world lords even live in seclusion and cultivate.

The edge of the city.

There stands a huge manor, where various rare plants are grown. Some have petals as red as flames, some have leaves as green as jade, and some have branches as transparent as crystal.

now.

A middle-aged man stood on the terrace of the manor, holding a glass of fine wine in his hand, gazing calmly at the distant horizon.

Suddenly, he looked up sharply.

My gaze pierced through the planet's atmosphere, looking towards the border between the Lanyou Universe Kingdom and the Fengxuan Universe Kingdom.

"That is..."

His pupils contracted slightly, and his fingers unconsciously tightened around the wine glass. As a peak Realm Lord, he could naturally sense the faint energy fluctuations coming from afar.

The energy fluctuations are very weak.

However, the fact that it could be sensed over such a long distance clearly indicates that something unusual has appeared in that area.

"Heh heh, interesting."

The middle-aged man put down his wine glass, turned and walked into the manor, but a barely perceptible glint flashed in his eyes.

The energy fluctuations are still spreading.

Its range has exceeded tens of thousands of light-years and continues to expand. More and more cultivators have sensed its existence, and more and more eyes are being cast toward that desolate star field.
