Swallowing the Stars: Reboot, The Eternal Serpent!

Chapter 54 [The Master of Life]!

Seeing is better than hearing.

Jiang Zhe immediately pulled his second primordial spirit to try out the [Reboot] talent technique.

He took out three A3 gold plates, first had his second spirit mark the status of the items, and then manipulated the arc blade to cut them all in half.

"Let's begin with the first piece."

Upon hearing this, a cold red light flashed in the eyes of the young-looking second primordial spirit.

A solid image of a giant silver-white serpent with its head and tail connected quietly appeared behind it, with a clock phantom behind it, resembling a huge magic array.

The clock hands are turned in reverse.

Gradually, Jiang Zhe could feel the spacetime around him becoming thicker, as if... when he walked from the bank into the middle of the river, the density of the filling around him increased.

Then, it was as if the river of time had flowed backward, and time and space had been reversed.

The two pieces of gold plate flew backwards and were pieced together, restoring the broken mirror to its original complete state as marked earlier, without showing any trace of having been cut.

After carefully examining it, Jiang Zhe tossed it aside without saying anything.

Ten minutes later.

"Second piece, begin."

The second primordial spirit activated and restarted, restoring the second golden plate.

Jiang Zhe checked it one more time, then tossed it aside to keep the previous piece company.

"Although there is only a slight difference, I still noticed that restarting the second gold plate would consume more resources."

"Is it because of the time span?"

With his gaze fixed on the third piece of gold that had been cut, Jiang Zhe decided to try again in 24 hours.

"Anna, catch the weakest Tsvika Zerg."

Orianna nodded in agreement, raised her hand, and a plump "silkworm" half a meter long appeared on the cabin floor.

Smelling the sweet metallic scent, its ferocious mandibles dripped saliva, which landed on the C9 alloy with a soft "hissing" sound.

Upon seeing the second primordial spirit mark completed, Jiang Zhe immediately used the curved blade disc to kill the slovenly thing.

Two or three minutes after his life force had completely disappeared, the silver-clad Jiang Zhe began to restart.

It's another scene resembling time travel.

The splashed golden-green fluid flew back into the insect corpse, and the cuts that had been made from the back of its head to its spine quickly healed, and the breath of life was rekindled.

Throughout the process, the second primordial spirit was extremely careful, always ready to cut off the restart, for fear of suffering a backlash.

But even after the Tsevika worm came to life and lay down on the ground to gnaw on the alloy floor, the backlash did not fall on the second primordial spirit.

The two young men in the cabin looked at each other, their eyes filled with doubt, but even more so with undisguised joy.

"Calling it a bug is absolutely right; it doesn't even cause any backlash?"

Both the main body and the clone ignored the near-draining cost, which was negligible compared to the price of being resurrected.

"It really looks like time travel, but the information from the innate secret technique clearly indicates that it isn't. So what exactly is the principle behind [Reboot]?"

After a moment's thought, Jiang Zhe shook his head and stopped worrying about it.

"I don't even have access to time travel right now, so how can I tell the difference between the two? I won't be qualified to think about this kind of question until I become immortal."

Jiang Zhe continued to look at the second innate secret technique, [Life Domination]!

"You're really boastful!"

But after reading the details, Jiang Zhe's expression became much more serious, and he changed his mind.

—The universe gives birth to all things, which is a manifestation of the laws of life. As a special life form that is similar to the primordial universe, its crystal core contains an undeveloped "internal universe".

—The "inner universe" can devour the body tissues of other life forms, analyze the structure of life, and consume energy to construct an identical shell for itself.

Such a description left Jiang Zhe speechless. He took out a Thunder Vine Blood Crystal from his spatial ring and threw it to his second primordial spirit.

Jiang Zhe, dressed in silver, absorbed the blood crystal into the life crystal core.

When the primary and secondary consciousnesses simultaneously looked inward, they saw a chaotic universe inside the crystal core, shaped like a chicken egg, still in an undeveloped state.

It was the work of the supreme rules; 99% of the origin of the divine crystal is in this chaotic universe.

The key to unlocking this treasure trove is "Primal Evolution," and the Supreme Rule hopes that he can complete the creation of the "Primal Universe" himself.

However, only three cycles of reincarnation are given as the deadline. If the deadline is not met, the soul will decay and die, and the treasure will be handed over to the treasure so that it can personally create a primordial universe.

The blood crystal was thrown into the "inner universe," just like a drop of rain falling into the ocean, without causing a ripple.

A dozen or so breaths later, Jiang Zhe, dressed in silver, received a jumble of information, the most eye-catching of which was a diagram of life structure, revealing all the secrets of the Thunder Vine clan.

The silver-clad youth's body disintegrated.

The revealed life crystal core spewed out chaotic mist, which condensed into a dark purple vine body as thick as a water bucket.

Arcs of electricity occasionally crackled and thundered on the large, green-veined leaves.

Jiang Zhe walked over and used his curved blade to slice open the vine. He saw that the sap flowing from the wound emitted a fragrant aroma and condensed into blood crystals that his body craved as it fell to the ground.

I couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "How can it be so realistic?"

"This is something that can only be mastered by those with a life gene count of 100,000 times."

Afterwards, Jiang Zhe picked up a few blood crystals and swallowed them into the Thunder Prison Realm, sensing the energy they were broken down into.

"The output is slightly less than the original, but... it's exactly the same? This is genuine Thunder Vine Blood Crystal, not some energy-based fake?"

It should be noted that when the Demon Slayer Clan is injured, they will also exhibit a bloody and fleshy appearance, but that is all simulated using energy.

Jiang Zhe touched the vine with a skeptical look, finally confirming that it was not a mere illusion formed from energy, but a real plant life!

He immediately realized, "A hundred thousand times the life gene can simulate life force; you've essentially become a Thunder Vine?!"

A suspicion arose in Jiang Zhe's mind, and he hurriedly urged, "Quick! Change back quickly, try again with my blood!"

The blood dripping from his wrist was absorbed into the life crystal core by the silver-clad primordial spirit and cast into the chaotic universe.

A moment later, he received feedback, and for the first time, Jiang Zhe gained a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of himself.

The life crystal core reconstructs the body, and he still appears as a young man draped in silver.

But Jiang Zhe understood that it was completely different now; the body in front of him was made of flesh and blood, and belonged to his own kind in the truest sense!

"conqueror!"

At Jiang Zhe's command, a blood-red banner lit up between the silver-clad youth's brows.

"Strange power!"

The naked body, concealed by silver clothing, was covered with mysterious dark purple runes, and the silver-clad youth's aura suddenly surged.

Jiang Zhe licked his dry lips, his guess confirmed—he could actually use both of his innate secret techniques!

Aside from the soul (?), a complete and flawless copy!

"If I could get my hands on the flesh and blood of the Golden Horned Beast—"

Fortunately, Jiang Zhe remained rational and did not let excitement cloud his judgment. He promptly noticed the inconsistencies and shook his head repeatedly.

"No, even if the [Clone] talent can be replicated, it's useless."

"Because that would almost permanently fix the life form of the second primordial spirit as a golden-horned behemoth. Once it switches to another life form, the various clones it spawns will also disintegrate, and everything will be reduced to nothing, and it will have to start all over again."

"The clone technique cannot be used, but some life forms have incredibly powerful innate techniques that are worth using [Life Domination] to understand their life structure and study their innate techniques."

"For example, the Destroyer Beast, with its attributes of lightning and time, and its innate secret technique [Time Freeze], is the best material for cultivating the laws of time!"

Having learned about the details of the [Life Master], Jiang Zhe formulated a general plan to maximize its effectiveness.

Only one innate secret technique remains: [Source]!

The effect is very simple.

—It can connect with the sea of ​​laws, the origin of the universe, and draw energy from it at an incredible speed.

It has the same effect as the Primal Treasure.

Aside from that, there's not much to say.

Clearly, this final talent was bestowed upon us by the primordial universe.

Jiang Zhe had some reservations, but he didn't dare say that this innate secret technique was completely useless.

"【Reboot】is probably something that comes with the Divine Crystal itself. As for the life form of the Eternal Serpent, it is the race of the original owner of the Divine Crystal."

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

The [Life Ruler] is related to the supreme rules, after all, the universe within the body was shaped by it;

"The Source" is bestowed by the primordial will of the universe; even the Lord of the Universe, knowing its power, would go mad for it.

Jiang Zhe clicked his tongue, "It's alright."

After trying it out, Jiang Zhe discovered that his second primordial spirit could enter his inner world, so he let it stay there to cultivate for the time being.

"After returning to Earth, it was discovered by the giant axe, which at most considered it to be an energy-type clone."

"Once your understanding of the laws and your combat skills reach the required level, you can venture into the universe. Staying on Earth won't do."

With these plans in mind, Jiang Zhe turned and instructed, "Anna, we're going to the Black Dragon Mountain Star Region, to Qiulong Star."

The C9 mechanical alloy spacecraft is much faster than the C5 Black Dragon Mountain model spacecraft.

In about three days, Jiang Zhe arrived in outer space of Qiulong Star and observed the huge planet that was faintly glowing with colorful light through an outdoor simulation.

Upon entering the atmosphere of the planet, following the traction signal, we arrived at the Class C zone of the planet's docking port.

The C9-class super-class spaceship was already eye-catching, but when the hatch opened and a team of C-class escort mechanical puppets disembarked, it was even more awe-inspiring.

People passing by instinctively made way for the main road, and the person in charge of the port was sweating profusely... everyone knew that the newcomer had a powerful background.

Only after Jiang Zhe paid the parking fee and left did everyone dare to breathe a little more freely.

After entering Qiulong City, Jiang Zhe went straight to the office building of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom on Qiulong Star, where he obtained citizenship of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

Then go to the Universe Galaxy Bank and open an account for yourself using the cheap teacher's account number.

This requires testing mental power.

However, because his soul benefited from the transformation in "Second Elemental Mystic Arts", Jiang Zhe was able to perfectly simulate the mental energy fluctuations of the Meteorite Star lineage after reading the soul transformation method in "Soul Imprint".

Without Babata by his side, the restrictions placed on Luo Feng naturally couldn't be applied to Jiang Zhe.

However, even here, the little devil is no match for the powerful.

Orianna, with Babata's memories, could calculate the constantly changing account passwords.

Jiang Zhe easily obtained the right to use a five-star account.

First, open a separate account for yourself, then sell the "miscellaneous items" sorted out from the World Bracelet to the Cosmic Galaxy Bank, and then deposit some cosmic crystals dug out from the World Ring into it...

Jiang Zhe's personal account deposits reached 11.3 Mixed Yuan Units, automatically upgrading him to a three-star customer of the Cosmic Galaxy Bank, granting him numerous privileges, including the qualification to participate in the Qianwu Primary Auction.

After leaving the bank, I went straight to Virtual Universe Company.

First, open an account for yourself, then purchase 50 anonymous accounts and a consciousness sensor.

I bought so many, all for my own family, not for outsiders.

Earth is not suitable for contact with the universe right now. It would be best to wait until after the Genius Battle, and contact with the universe at that time will not cause any trouble.

The final stop on the Dragon Star: the slave market.

They purchased two fourth-tier cosmic-level mentalists and twenty ninth-tier eternal-level mentalists, all of whom were young women who resembled Earthlings.

Because of the numerous requirements, the two cosmic-level mentalists paid a premium, totaling 8 million cosmic coins. The remaining twenty eternal-level ninth-tier mentalists were just extras.

This is a temporary protective force prepared for the Jiang family; I cannot stay on Earth forever to protect them.

Two cosmic-level slaves needed to be transferred from other planets, and Jiang Zhe waited on Qiulong Star for more than twenty days.

Orianna has an avatar stationed at the Jiang family residence, allowing them to maintain contact.

According to Oriana, the old man comes to check on the courtyard every few days, probably sensing something is wrong and fearing that he might run away.

Jiang Zhe shook his head and chuckled at this.

During his leisure time on this alien planet, Jiang Zhe was anything but idle, spending all his time practicing the "Dragon-Hibernating Technique" to heal the wounds in his soul.

It has been 18 days since the dragon star landed.

Jiang Zhe looked into the core space and saw that the "miniature star" representing the soul core was complete. The heavy weight on his heart finally lifted.

The "aura" on the miniature star is much dimmer, but there's no need to worry; it will return to normal with gentle care.

It's time to stop and process the insights gained from a few dreams.

The most rewarding experience was that of the thunder dragon's dream.

On the 24th day after Qiulongxing landed, Jiang Zhe received news that the two slaves had arrived.

Una, two meters tall, with dark red hair and a pair of thumb-length black curved horns on her forehead, is a fourth-level cosmic-level mentalist.

Arlene is 1.6 meters tall and has dark green, seaweed-like hair. Otherwise, she is not much different from an Earthling and is also a fourth-level cosmic-level mentalist.

Jiang Zhe led them back to the spaceship.

After some reassurance, they promised to release them into freedom a thousand years later.

Only then did Orianna activate the spaceship and return to Earth.

The return journey would take about four days, and Jiang Zhe and the silver-clad primordial spirit began to study the fundamental laws that the latter needed to cultivate.

After some perception, four distinct laws of affinity were discovered in the second primordial spirit: earth, fire, water, and wind.

It's a mess!

But if you think of it as earth, fire, water, and wind, then it makes sense.

That's all for today.

The 6th was the last day of the holiday, so my cousin also left to see me off.

Authors need to have a life too.

Sorry, there will be two updates tomorrow.
