Swallowing the Stars: My Comprehension is Beyond the Heavens!

Chapter 269 The Crown of the Soul

Melissa looked at the crimson planet before her, feeling quite puzzled.

Why did my master bring me here?

Luo Xia reached out and touched a crimson boulder in front of him. Instantly, the crimson boulder emitted light, and then a dark spatial passage opened up.

"13.2 billion epochs ago, a world lord named Sora perished here. Because this place is too remote, no one has discovered for hundreds of billions of epochs that the legacy of a peak world lord still exists on this desolate planet."

Melissa looked rather bewildered.

She found it strange.

Why would the master know that Lord Sora had perished here, since no one else knew?

Now, her confusion only intensified because of Luo Xia's explanation.

However, Melissa believed that her master would not harm her.

So when Rorschach stepped into the dark spatial passage, Melissa followed without hesitation.

After a moment of spatial shift, Melissa found herself falling, but soon she felt a gentle force supporting her, allowing her to float in mid-air.

"Thank you, Master!" Melissa quickly expressed her gratitude.

She discovered that the gravity in this world was more than ten thousand times that of Earth.

Upon entering the World Lord's World, she and Luo Xia appeared directly in the air, which is why they fell instantly due to the pull of gravity.

Rorschach stood in front of Melissa and said, "We have now entered the world of Sora, the world's ruler. Look there, on that floating island, you'll find his legacy."

Melissa looked ahead and saw that it was daytime in the world of the Realm Master. A radiant sphere floated high in the sky, casting down light and heat.

In the vast and expansive world of the Realm Lord, there are endless mountain ranges, forests, grasslands, lakes... and at the center of this Realm Lord world, a huge island is strangely suspended.

In the dim light, one can still see a magnificent palace standing atop the island's highest peak.

"Let's go, let's go over there."

Rorschach flew toward the island.

Melissa caught up, and asked hesitantly, "Master, do you wish for me to inherit the legacy of Lord Sora?"

Upon hearing this, Rorschach couldn't help but smile and turn back to Melissa, asking, "Can the legacy of Lord Sora be as good as mine?"

"Of course not!" Melissa shook her head.

Her master is now the Supreme Being of the Universe!

This is already a super-powerful being in the universe!

Even the immortal gods who once commanded awe and fear now need to show respect and dread before Rorschach.

Sora was merely a realm lord who perished billions of years ago; how could he possibly compare to his master!

"Haha." Rorschach laughed. "With me teaching you, you naturally won't need the legacy of Lord Sora. However, Lord Sora has a treasure that's perfect for you. It's a powerful artifact that can amplify your soul's strength, making your illusions even more powerful!"

Melissa was stunned. A priceless treasure?!

A treasure is far more powerful than any fifth-tier weapon.

In the universe's classification of treasures, below the supreme treasure lies the most precious treasure!

"This treasure is called the Soul Crown, which can amplify your soul by about 8 times!" Rorschach explained as the two arrived at the palace gates atop the mountain.

The palace gates were tightly shut.

It is magnificent and ancient, and after billions of years of weathering, this hall exudes a special and ancient charm.

With a thought, Luo Xia unleashed his immense mental power, which pushed open the heavy door.

The door slowly opened.

Rorschach and Melissa entered the palace.

Inside the palace, there were also various mechanical puppets. These puppets were all very expensive to make, and each one had the strength of a World Lord. Unfortunately, after hundreds of billions of epochs, the energy crystals of these puppets had been exhausted, and they could no longer move.

"To be able to afford such a mechanical puppet, this Realm Lord named Sora must have been a wealthy and powerful Realm Lord back then, right?"

Melissa pondered to herself as she followed Rorschach through one palace gate after another.

Finally, they arrived at a vast hall.

Above this great hall, there is a throne.

A decaying corpse, reduced to golden bones, sat on the throne, a blood-red crown hanging from his hand.

"That's Lord Sora?"

Melissa looked at the golden skull on the throne. To her astonishment, a gentle breeze suddenly rose in the hall, and then the golden skull turned into specks of gold dust and dissipated into the air.

Luo Xia sighed, "If one cannot reach immortality, even the most powerful realm lord will eventually return to dust like the heavens and the universe after billions of years of erosion. Melissa, go and get the Soul Crown."

"Yes, Master!"

Melissa obeyed Rorschach's words unconditionally.

Even if the Soul Crown might threaten her life, she would carry out Rorschach's orders without hesitation.

The empty throne sat there, giving off a unique sense of loneliness.

The thought that this was a throne from billions of years ago filled Melissa with emotion.

He glanced at the blood-red crown that had fallen onto the throne.

Melissa reached out her jade-like hand and picked it up.

The blood-red crown was not heavy at all; on the contrary, it was very light, so light that Melissa thought she had received an illusory crown.

"You drip your blood onto the crown."

Rorschach pointed this out.

Most of the most precious and supreme treasures in the universe recognize their masters in this way, because after entering immortality, the soul merges with the divine body, and recognizing a master through blood is the same as recognizing a master through the soul, which is very convenient.

However, Melissa is not immortal yet.

Therefore, after the blood oath ceremony, she also needs to imprint her soul and consciousness onto the Soul Crown.

Once these two steps are completed, the Soul Crown will belong to Melissa.

A crimson crown was placed on Melissa's head, giving her an air of nobility and majesty, like a queen who had stepped out of a painting, beautiful and dignified.

"How is it?" Rorschach smiled at Melissa.

"Very strong!"

Melissa's eyes shone brightly. This was a treasure that required the strength of a King-level Immortal to fully unleash its divine power. Although she could only activate a little bit of it now, it could still unleash extremely powerful force!

According to Melissa's own calculations, if she used the Soul Crown, she would be able to fight against a second- or even third-tier Realm Lord!

"Keep the treasure safe. If I am not by your side, do not easily show it to others."

Rorschach gave his instructions.

"Yes, Master!"

Melissa nodded, and the blood-red crown on her head gradually disappeared, eventually disappearing into her sea of ​​consciousness to protect her soul.

"The scenery here is beautiful. I will teach you here for a while, and after you break through to the Realm Lord level, we will continue our adventures in the universe."

Rorschach then gave further instructions.

Melissa naturally had no objection to this arrangement.
