Swallowing the Stars: I Have a Primordial Dao Seed

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhou Yuan immediately delivered the finishing blow, shattering their original cores one by one.

In an instant, Zhou Yuan killed seven of the ten metallic lifeforms. Then, before the metallic lifeforms could recover, he destroyed the cores of the remaining three metallic lifeforms, completing the kill.

Just then, the other metallic lifeforms broke through the illusion's obstruction, and more than ten squads launched an attack simultaneously. Their sharp metallic claws, imbued with the sharpness of the fundamental laws of metal, reached out to grab Zhou Yuan's true form.

clang!clang!clang!

Zhou Yuan swung his sword to parry, the ear-piercing sound of metal clashing reverberating through the air. He used the impact to quickly retreat, increasing the distance between himself and the metallic creature.

A thousand powerful metallic lifeforms are not so easy to kill, and Zhou Yuan did not intend to confront them head-on. After all, his Force was limited, and if he were surrounded, he might fail due to insufficient Force.

"Looks like I need to change my strategy." Zhou Yuan's eyes flashed with a cunning glint as he watched the approaching swarm of metallic lifeforms. "Since you like to stick together, I'll take you down one by one!"

He swiftly manipulated his illusory form, drawing the attention of the metallic lifeforms from all directions. Meanwhile, his true body remained hidden within the illusory form, awaiting the optimal moment to attack.

If any squad becomes even slightly out of position, he immediately launches a Sky Slash to kill them as quickly as possible, then retreats swiftly, never lingering in battle.

And so, Zhou Yuan moved across the battlefield like a ghost, constantly consuming the number of metal lives.

As time went on, the number of metal lifeforms dwindled, and their formation became increasingly loose. Zhou Yuan knew that the decisive battle was approaching.

He took a deep breath and poured his Force into the Sky-Suppressing Blade once more. A blinding blade of light, composed of pale silver spatial laws, condensed on its edge: "Now, it's time to end this!"

The Suppressing Sky Slash was unleashed once more, this time with full force. Instantly, all the metallic lifeforms were subjected to immense suppression, rendering them almost unable to move.

The Instant Slash unleashed thousands of blades of light, rapidly striking the remaining metallic lifeforms.

boom! boom! boom!

The remaining metal lifeforms were cleaved into pieces.

However, most of the metal life cores were not destroyed and were still able to function, all trying their best to recover.

Zhou Yuan stopped diverting his attention and gathered his tens of thousands of illusory bodies into hundreds of ones, each of which precisely locked onto the core of a metallic life form.

puff!puff!puff!

As the blade flashed, Zhou Yuan shattered one dark golden primordial core after another. When only one remained, Zhou Yuan casually sealed and suppressed it.

Zhou Yuan sat down to recover his original strength and mental energy.

"If the third level is this difficult, the fourth level will be even more challenging. It seems Zhou Yuan won't be able to pass the fourth level." The immortal who was watching shook his head and said, looking at how Zhou Yuan took seven days to pass the third level.

"Haha, that's better than I expected! I bet he'd make it to the fourth level, and I won!" The purple-robed immortal who had placed the bet earlier was beaming with joy, excitedly patting the shoulder of the person next to him.

"Even a genius who only appears once every ten thousand epochs might not be able to pass the first level of the Seventh Tower. The fact that he reached the fourth level is already a monstrous talent that appears once every ten million epochs!" another immortal in green robes exclaimed, his eyes full of admiration.

……

Three days later, Zhou Yuan recovered his original strength and mental power, casually shattered the original core of the last metal life form with a single strike, and disappeared into the third level.

brush!

Zhou Yuan appeared in the fourth level of space. The light screen on his arm instantly refreshed: "Seventh target on the fourth level: One thousand Xue Peng demonic beasts."

Looking up, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and a thousand enormous snow rocs were swooping down, blotting out the sun. They were pure white, with wingspans reaching hundreds of meters, and the feathers on their wings were like the hardest alloy, emitting a sharp whistling sound as they cut through the air, as if they could tear space apart.

"This level is probably the limit." Zhou Yuan gripped the Zhenkong Blade tightly, sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Xue Peng, and muttered to himself.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhou Yuan kicked off with both legs and shot into Xue Peng like a shooting star. The Earth Origin Law Domain and the Space Origin Law Domain were simultaneously activated, and ten thousand illusory bodies instantly spread throughout the entire airspace.

The Snow Rocs on this level were even more powerful, also wielding dual domains—a combination of the spatial origin law domain and the water origin law domain. The ten Snow Rocs together managed to barely withstand Zhou Yuan's domain suppression.

Xuepeng flapped its wings suddenly, leaving hundreds of afterimages in the air. This was a spatial technique that was no less powerful than the Myriad Transformations technique, increasing their speed several times over.

Zhou Yuan unleashed his full power, and terrifying fluctuations of the laws erupted from his body. The yellow crystal mark on his forehead, representing the recognition of the Earth Origin Law, was no longer concealed.

"Suppressing Sky Slash!" Zhou Yuan's power of law erupted in full force, and the primal force surged into the Suppressing Sky Slash.

Under the immense pressure of gravity and spatial suppression, the afterimage of the Snow Roc, which had been moving freely through the air, vanished instantly, and its flight speed was completely suppressed.

Click!

The Zhenkong Blade, accompanied by a piercing shriek that seemed to tear through space, instantly struck the wing of a snow roc. The snow roc screamed in agony as its hard feathers shattered like glass, its body split in two, blood splattering into the air.

Before the other Xuepeng could react, Zhou Yuan had already launched his second move, Instant Void Slash.

Tens of thousands of sword energies erupted from the Zhenkong Blade, and the space in front of Zhou Yuan was engulfed in a sea of ​​sword light. The snow roc in the center of the three heads was torn apart by the sword energy and turned into a sky full of blood mist.

Xue Peng, who was beside him, had already reacted. Zhou Yuan could only rely on the movement techniques of his Myriad Transformations to keep dodging and swing his sword in response. However, Zhou Yuan's ordinary sword strikes could not cause any fatal damage to Xue Peng's feathers.

Soon, Zhou Yuan was completely surrounded by the flock of Snow Rocs. The dense swarm of Snow Rocs enveloped him like dark clouds, their sharp feathers constantly slicing past him, and their giant claws occasionally reaching for Zhou Yuan.

Therefore, Zhou Yuan began to change his strategy, no longer restricting Xue Peng on the periphery, and shrinking his territory.

Zhou Yuan restricted his domain to a range of 100 meters, and the domain's suppressive power instantly surged. Every snow roc that rushed into the domain was forced to lower its wings and drastically reduce its speed by the immense suppressive force.

Clang! Clang! Clang! ...

The sounds of the Zhenkong Blade colliding with the snow roc's feathers and giant claws rang out continuously.

Zhou Yuan was like a rock in a storm, constantly wielding his sword to parry the attacks from the snow roc. Each slash hit a snow roc, but the snow roc was extremely resilient and could not be killed unless a vital point was struck.

Occasionally, Zhou Yuan would be scratched by Xue Peng's feathers, and he finally began to get injured.

Thus, Zhou Yuan was caught in a deadly battle. A normal slash was not enough to kill a snow roc, and even his strongest attack, the Instant Void Slash, could only kill a few snow rocs. His primal force was constantly being depleted.

One, two, three... After Zhou Yuan killed dozens of Snow Rocs, his primal force was finally exhausted.

Without the Force, there was no more domain restriction; Zhou Yuan was left with only his physical strength, which instantly halved. Moreover, without the Force to power the Zhenkong Blade, he could only rely on the sharpness of the blade's material to cleave Xue Peng's body.

puff!

Zhou Yuan, relying on his physical strength, managed to cleave open the head of one of the Snow Rocs and kill it. But at that moment, three Snow Rocs attacked from behind, their sharp feathers instantly piercing his body.

"Hmm!" Zhou Yuan groaned, his consciousness blurred instantly, and his body turned into specks of light and disappeared into the trial space.
