Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Family Revitalization

Zijing Island was in an uproar.

The hundreds of millions of people are in an uproar.

Using a high-grade treasure to wager a battle? That's insane!

Even the ruler of the universe wouldn't dare to play like this.

It can only be said that the Nine-Ring King truly deserves to be the most arrogant immortal king among the human race.

Bold and arrogant.

If it were in the Ancestral Mystic Realm, relying on its supreme treasure, even a Universe Venerable would be certain to die. Even a Universe Overlord wouldn't be very confident, since the advantages of a supreme treasure in a high-level field are too great; they can fight or leave at will.

However, it brings glory to the world.

No one is afraid of this King of Nine Rings.

Because in the world of glory, the secret techniques used must be created by fusing the laws, and since everyone's divine bodies and weapons are the same, the test is purely the power of the secret techniques.

How long has the Nine-Ring King been cultivating?

It's been less than 100,000 years.

How powerful can secret techniques be?!

At most, it's at the level of ultimate secret techniques. However, among the hundreds of millions of inheritors on Purple Thorn Island, quite a few can create their own ultimate secret techniques. In particular, most of the fourth-level inheritors of the Beast God are Universe Venerables. For Universe Venerables, creating their own peak secret techniques is not difficult at all. Only ultimate secret techniques are slightly more difficult. However, almost every one of the top-ranked fourth-level inheritors has an ultimate secret technique!

Even among the immortal inheritors, several have created their own ultimate secret techniques.

"Haha, this King of Nine Rings has really gone mad!"

"What a pity, to take on this challenge, you need to bring out a supreme treasure; that alone makes it impossible for anyone to succeed!"

"Indeed, there aren't many Universe Venerables who possess supreme treasures, and even fewer who dare to use them in gambling battles. If you were to ask to borrow them, I doubt anyone would be willing."

"The top-ranked inheritors certainly dare, after all, winning would mean obtaining a high-grade treasure. By the way, do you think the Nine-Ring King will only lose one match and then stop?"

"Nonsense, would he dare to wager two high-grade treasures in a battle?! Even the human race wouldn't dare do that, so there must be many contenders for the inheritance right now!"

The inheritors of the Zijing Island tradition are talking about it everywhere.

Many of the billions of races who heard the news discussed it extensively. Some admired King Jiu Huan, some thought he was an idiot, and some regretted not following the path of the Beast God.

As for the human race itself.

It exploded even more.

"Palace Mistress Mengluo, you have the best relationship with the Ninth Ring King, you should go and persuade him!"

"Yes, this bet is no joke. Considering the time Nine Rings King has spent cultivating, it would be quite an achievement if he could create his own ultimate secret technique. He's probably only managed to create one or two moves. That Knife River King is also a genius, but he's lost quite a few matches in the challenges!"

"Among the inheritors of the fourth level of the Beast God realm are several terrifying Venerables, including Venerable Purple Rain, who is said to have already created his own ultimate secret technique!"

"No matter what, we're bound to lose, and as long as we lose, it's a priceless treasure."

"Who can avoid losing!"

Not only the circle of Venerables and the circle of cosmic overlords, but even the cosmic lords at the top of the human race were in an uproar. No one expected that the disciple of the Ice Peak Lord would be so reckless.

They simply don't value such a precious treasure.

So many cosmic lords came to the palace of the Ice Peak Lord. Although this caused a great sensation in the universe, it was still not appropriate to put it at the highest meeting.

"Bingfeng, what's wrong with your disciple? And that treasure, did you bestow it upon him?!"

The Lord of Dragons frowned. "If you bestowed it upon me, you should take it back as soon as possible. You can't do this. You're selling your grandfather's land without a care in the world, aren't you!"

Lord Youhou dared not offer too much comment.

The Lord of Chaos City shook his head. "Ice Peak, although those treasures were not bestowed by you, Shen Ping is still your personal disciple. We cannot let him act recklessly. The value of high-grade treasures is incomparable to that of ordinary treasures. This kind of gambling is tantamount to giving Zijing Island a high-grade treasure for free."

The Lord of Ice Peak felt a headache coming on. He finally understood how much trouble his disciple could cause. Other universe overlords would rather use one supreme treasure as two, but Shen Ping was different; he directly used it for a gambling battle.

"Senior brother, Long Xing... Don't worry, I will try my best to persuade him. But you should be mentally prepared. I'm not sure I can persuade him. If he really loses, let him learn a lesson. Speaking of which, my disciple has had too smooth a journey in his cultivation. He has hardly experienced any setbacks. It's normal for him to be a little arrogant."

The Lord of Chaos City understood this well, because it was a common problem for many geniuses. Without experiencing a severe setback and realizing the cruelty of reality, they could never truly become strong. This was also why the strong rose from blood and fire.

Perfecting secret techniques through fierce battles is one aspect.

More importantly, it's about growing in mindset, understanding that you are not invincible, that there are always people better than you, and that overly arrogant people don't go far.

"Alright, Junior Brother Bingfeng, try your best to persuade him."

Soon.

Shen Ping arrived at the palace of the Ice Peak Lord.

Looking at the handsome silver-haired man, he bowed respectfully, "Disciple greets Master."

"My disciple, do you know why I summoned you here?"

"Is it about the Bauhinia Island gambling match?"

The Lord of Ice Peaks snorted. "You still know about this? This matter has caused quite a stir. The demon race, the mechanical race, and the insect race are all waiting to see my human race make a fool of itself. You are usually so composed, how could you do such a thing!"

"Yes, you are a genius. You were able to kill a King at the limit of the Realm Lord stage, and even killed a high-level Venerable of the Universe after you became an Immortal. But you should understand that you relied on the power of the Supreme Treasure, while the Glory World is about secret techniques. The mastery of secret techniques cannot be achieved overnight..."

Shen Ping listened attentively, and after the Lord of Ice Peak finished speaking, he bowed and said, "Master, this disciple has already created the ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe!"

"I know you can create ultimate secret techniques... wait, what did you say?"

The Lord of Ice Peaks suddenly froze, staring intently at Shen Ping.

Shen Ping repeated the sentence.

"The ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe? You?"

The Lord of Ice Peak blinked, utterly shocked. "Disciple, you mustn't deceive your master!"

It's not that he doesn't trust Shen Ping.

Rather, it was simply too shocking.

Without wasting any words, Shen Ping directly unleashed the secret technique "Flame Light Void" in the main hall. As the sword light spread, a void appeared in the main hall, in which sword lights like flames intersected and circulated endlessly.

Thirty thousand years of immersive research.

Furthermore, guided by the swordsmanship realm of the Eternal True God, coupled with the foundation of the Law Runes, and aided by the Secret Rune Diagram and the Beast God Statue, this sword light was round and brilliant, just like the void truly transformed from flames.

The Lord of the Ice Peaks remained silent.

With his keen eyesight, he could naturally see that this sword light had indeed reached the ultimate level of the Lord of the Universe. Although it was not yet perfect, its power was definitely at that level.

The immortals created this secret technique themselves!

Unheard of.

No wonder his disciple is so arrogant and high-profile!

With such talent, no one would take their peers seriously.

moment.

Shen Ping left.

As the Lord of Ice Peak watched his disciple's retreating figure, he smiled sincerely, "From now on, I will no longer interfere in your affairs, but you must consider things carefully before acting."

This is what Shen Ping said before he left.

Faced with such a monster.

From a common-sense perspective, this is undoubtedly an insult to such geniuses.

……

Zijing Island is very noisy.

Many inheritors are borrowing the supreme treasure, hoping to challenge the Nine-Ring King.

Those ranked high in the third and fourth levels are eager to try.

Even with the example of the Blade River King, these inheritors are still incredibly greedy, their high-level treasures enough to make even the universe's overlords scramble for them.

The Human Alliance is also keeping a close eye on things.

In fact, hundreds of millions of people, as long as they are not kept in the dark, are all paying attention to this major event.

Hongmeng City.

The open-air bar in the inner city has been attracting many cosmic venerables these days, all wanting to inquire about the latest news from Zijing Island, since the number of Hongmeng inheritors on Zijing Island is not large.

"Nyx has arrived!"

"Any new news from Niu Zhou?"

"Yes, tell us about it!"

Niu Zhou sat down.

The wine was poured, and all the venerable ones turned their gazes toward it.

The Venerable Niu Zhou enjoyed this. He slowly took a sip, shook his head, and said, "No, so far, no one from Zijing Island has challenged the Nine-Ring King. I heard that the Nine-Ring King has received quite a few challenges, but none of them have any supreme treasures."

One of the Cosmic Venerables couldn't help but say, "Isn't it said that Venerable Ziyu is very strong, ranking high among the fourth-level inheritors? Moreover, he is a special life form, having been recruited by the Ancestral God Sect early on and bestowed with supreme treasures. Even he wouldn't dare to challenge him?"

Bloodwing Venerable took a sip of wine. "That's a gamble on a supreme treasure. If you lose, the treasure is gone. Who would dare to challenge him rashly? Since arriving at Purple Thorn Island, King Nine Rings hasn't really fought anyone in the Glory World. Nobody knows his strength, so everyone is just watching."

Venerable Golden Axe nodded, "Indeed, if it were me, I wouldn't be the first to challenge. This battle is presided over by the Thunder Beast God, and before the challenge, one must hand over the supreme treasure to the Thunder Beast God!"

For many cosmic venerables.

Treasures are a luxury.

If we lose, it will take a long time to pay the price.

For example, the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom, with 3.8 Treasure Points, suppressed him for countless years. Even the overlords of the universe would have to think twice before making any rash moves. At the very least, they would let other inheritors test the strength of the Nine-Ring King.

The Venerable Niu Zhou laughed, "Just watch, there will definitely be a successor who steps forward. I guess it will be either a demon or an insect."

"That's right, the demon race and the insect race fought the fiercest against our human race; they're capable of bringing out their most precious treasures!"

"Yes, the Northern Frontier Alliance, the Thorn Ring Alliance and other alien races dare not take it, but for the demon race, the insect race and other races, a supreme treasure is nothing."

That is indeed the case.

In just half a month.

The demon race selected a cosmic venerable, Venerable Deer Gold, from among the inheritors, entrusted the supreme treasure to the Thunder Beast God, and then challenged the Nine-Ring King.

Instantly, hundreds of millions of inheritors on Zijing Island entered the world of glory.

King Chaman, the Seven Swords King, and other immortal kings gathered around Shen Ping.

Luo Feng was also there.

"This Venerable Lu Jin isn't particularly outstanding among the fourth-level inheritors of the Beast God's legacy, so we can't be careless. He might just be a trap set by the demon race!"

"Yes, King Jiu Huan, you must be careful. You must go all out in this first stop."

Shen Ping shrugged and walked towards the Glory Arena.

Wow.

Scene change.

This is a world of water.

Venerable Deer Gold had already appeared. Looking at Shen Ping, it laughed and said, "Nine-Ring King, you are indeed dazzling, but you rely on nothing more than a supreme treasure. In this world of glory, you are bound to lose. Hmph, using a supreme treasure as a constraint is clever, but unfortunately, my demon race doesn't care about this one supreme treasure at all. Just obediently hand over your high-grade supreme treasure!"

Shen Ping said lazily, "You talk too much nonsense!"

boom!

Directly burn the immortal divine body.

He didn't use any secret techniques at the level of a master of the universe. He wouldn't go that far to deal with a fourth-level inheritor. If he were too strong, it would only scare away those who were eager to try.

Therefore, what was used was merely the ultimate secret technique at the level of a cosmic sage.

A flash of light appeared.

One link leads to another.

Venerable Lu Jin also unleashed his ultimate secret technique, revealing that he had indeed concealed some of his strength. Unfortunately, he quickly fell into a disadvantageous position in the face of Shen Ping's sword light.

Even the ultimate secret technique at the same time.

In terms of power, Shen Ping's swordsmanship is far superior to others.

The exchange lasted only a few seconds.

Venerable Lu Jin was defeated. "How is this possible? How is this possible? Both are ultimate secret techniques, why did I lose?!"

Although the clan promised to provide the treasure for this bet, Venerable Lu Jin knew that he had missed out on a high-grade treasure!

With the gambling war over.

A smile appeared on Shen Ping's face. Getting a treasure like this was so easy!

It's like stumbling upon a treasure on a primordial planet.

Glory to the world.

All the inheritors looked at Shen Ping; they already knew the outcome of the challenge.

"Nine-Ring King has won!"

"He, an immortal being, can actually surpass a cosmic master in arcane arts!"

"That Venerable Lu Jin is of mid-level among fourth-level inheritors; he might be able to defeat it, so his strength should not be underestimated!"

"Thank goodness I didn't act impulsively, otherwise I would have lost a priceless treasure!"

"Look how ugly Venerable Lu Jin's face is."

Many inheritors whispered among themselves, having learned from the example of the King of the Knife River. Although many Venerables were crazy, they still maintained a shred of rationality. Of course, the most important thing was that they did not have any supreme treasures.

"Haha, congratulations to King Nine Rings on your victory! You've won a priceless treasure!"

Congratulations!

The human alliance members all offered their congratulations, but were also filled with envy; winning this treasure was far too easy.

Luo Feng also offered his congratulations, as he had believed from the beginning that Shen Ping would definitely win.

Shen Ping laughed and said, "Come on, it's my treat today. Let's go to Hongmeng City and have a good meal. Don't skimp on anything, order the expensive stuff!"

"The King of Nine Rings is truly magnificent!"

"The Nine-Ring King won a priceless treasure!"

"A priceless treasure!"

The sound echoed throughout the world of glory.

Hundreds of millions of inheritors are extremely jealous. Heaven is so unfair! How could this Nine-Ring King, an Immortal, win the challenge?

"Venerable Deer Gold is truly a useless piece of trash!"

"This is utterly useless! It's like handing a priceless treasure to the King of Nine Rings!"

"The Nine-Ring King already possessed many treasures, and now he has gained another one."

"I wonder if there are any successors who dare to challenge the Nine-Ring King!"

"Just you wait, it'll definitely be there!"

Only half a day had passed.

The Zerg, along with two inheritors of the Cosmic Venerable from the Northern Frontier Alliance, challenged Shen Ping. These two inheritors were quite strong, with their Divine Body Amplification Secret Technique and attack secret techniques ranking among the top dozens, but unfortunately, they still lost.

This completely shocked the hundreds of millions of inheritors on Purple Thorn Island. (End of Chapter)
