Swallowing the Stars: My Comprehension is Beyond the Heavens!

Chapter 508 The Legend of the Night

Duanmu Qingya nodded with an extremely solemn expression. "That's right. In my inherited records, there is a record of this former God-King. He was once one of the most powerful figures on the Origin Continent. Even the current God-Kings of the Flame Wind Ancient Kingdom and the Thunder Ancient Kingdom are far inferior to this Black Night God-King in terms of strength!"

Taking advantage of a lull in the battle, Luo Xia said to Duanmu Qingya, "If he really is the Dark Night God King, how come his current strength is only at the Chaos Ruler level?" Duanmu Qingya's eyes flashed, and she said, "That's because this God King has already passed away!" Upon hearing this, the World Beast Bedi frowned, "You say he's dead, but isn't he fighting his master right now...?"

Duanmu Qingya responded, "The Dark Night God King once attempted to break through the limits, that is, to surpass the level of God King and reach a higher realm. There are records of such things throughout the Origin Continent. The legendary 'Yuan' has already done it. Many God Kings yearn to follow in 'Yuan's' footsteps and surpass the God King realm, but so far, no one has succeeded!"

After a pause, Duanmu Qingya turned her gaze to the terrifying three-headed beast-headed being that was attacking Luo Xia. "The Night God King is one of the many losers, but his situation after his defeat is different from that of many other God Kings. Other God Kings, after their defeat, might stagnate or perish completely..."

"But the Night God King was unwilling to die like that. After failing to break through to the God King realm, he used some strange secret technique to transform himself into what he is now! His strength regressed from the God King realm to the Chaos Ruler realm, and he completely lost his self-awareness, moving around in the thick, dark fog like a dead man."

"He will relentlessly devour any powerful individuals who stray into the black mist. Rumor has it that if the Night God King devours enough powerful individuals, he will be resurrected, rising from the ashes to surpass the God King realm and become the second person on the Origin Continent after 'Yuan'!"

Duanmu Qingya recounts the records about the God of Night that exist within her soul.

The information about the Night God King is far removed from the present day. Even before the establishment of the Duanmu Divine Kingdom, the story of the Night God King had already become a legend. For countless ages, black mist accompanied the deceased Night God King as he wandered throughout the entire Origin Continent. Sometimes this black mist would linger in a certain area for countless years, but more often, it would wander aimlessly across the Origin Continent.

The black mist has lingered in this area for quite some time now.

Luo Xia, who was fighting the Night God King in the distance, had already heard Duanmu Qingya's account.

He looked at the towering and terrifying figure with three beast heads and nodded to himself. No wonder the three-beast-headed being was so powerful. If it were not him, but an ordinary Chaos Ruler, he would probably be instantly killed by the Night God King the moment they met!

Although the opponent's strength had fallen from the God King realm and he had lost his self-awareness, leaving only his instincts, his combat skills and instincts had not deteriorated in the slightest. On the contrary, relying on his instincts, his fighting became even wilder and more ferocious!

"I've heard that the God King of the Night is unkillable. Once, a God King stepped into the black mist, attempting to kill the God King of the Night and obtain all his secrets, but ultimately failed and had to retreat!" Duanmu Qingya added at the end.

Upon hearing this, Luo Xia looked at the body of the Night God King. On that terrifying body, the wounds he had left not long ago had all disappeared, and the surrounding black mist became even deeper and darker, with a dull and desperate atmosphere spreading everywhere.

Despite the long battle, the aura of the Night God King showed no signs of waning. His purple dragon arm, the terrifying black mist that materialized, and the powerful impact of his consciousness remained as ferocious as ever!

"Let's retreat!"

Luo Xia did not intend to continue entangled with the Night God King here, mainly because there was no benefit in getting entangled with him.

He entered the black mist merely to escape the pursuit of the three rulers, Li Xiao. Now that he had already shaken off those three rulers, there was no need for him to fight to the death with an unkillable former god-king!

Luo Xia's battle blade suddenly shook off the purple dragon arm that the Night God King had grabbed. At the same time, he swung the battle blade forward with all his might. The dazzling blade light shone like stars, annihilating the terrifying phantoms that rushed up. Then, with the will impact bursting from the eagle head, he carried the World Beast Bedi and Duanmu Qingya and used the Somersault Cloud to speed away into the distance!

Whoosh—in less than three breaths, he covered a distance of tens of light-years!

However, they were still shrouded in black mist! They continued flying forward! Black mist... and kept flying! Black mist... Soon, Luo Xia stopped, still surrounded by black mist, as if they had fallen into the palm of Buddha's hand, unable to escape the dense and silent black mist no matter how they flew!

While Luo Xia and the others were racking their brains to figure out a way to escape the black mist, the Lord Li Xiao and the Lord Tian Hong were finally persuaded by the Lord Bai Mu.

Following the faint fluctuation they had sensed earlier, they flew at breakneck speed toward the area where Luo Xia and the Night God King were fighting.

However, when they arrived, they found no trace of Rorschach, only the three-headed Night God King standing there.

"That's...!"

"What is that?!"

Li Xiao and the others looked in horror at the towering giant that stood in the black mist, looking extremely ferocious and terrifying.

boom!

Before they could recover from their shock, the Night God King launched a sudden attack like a raging beast.

From the eagle's head, a powerful will that seemed capable of crushing everything surged forth like a tidal wave, sweeping towards them with overwhelming force.

At the same time, the wolf head let out a series of low roars, instantly summoning countless terrifying phantoms that bared their fangs and claws as they pounced on them.

Most terrifying of all was the purple dragon arm, which resembled a raging giant python, possessing unparalleled power and might, and swiftly and unimaginably grabbed at the Hundred-Eyed Ruler, who had no time to make any effective resistance.

Under this sudden attack, the Hundred-Eyed Sovereign was instantly seized by the dragon arm and mercilessly sent straight into the terrifyingly large mouth of the dragon head, which seemed capable of swallowing the entire world.

With a chilling chewing sound, the Hundred-Eyed Ruler was mercilessly swallowed without even a chance to struggle.

After successfully devouring the Hundred-Eyed Overlord, the aura of the Night God King surged wildly like a blazing fire, becoming significantly stronger than before.

At the same time, a subtle, almost imperceptible glint of life seemed to appear in the eyes of the three beast heads, making them seem even more vibrant and dangerous at this moment.
