Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 503 Giving Up

Just as Yang Wu was fighting the two True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan, about eight million light-years away in this space-time, a magnificent oval palace suddenly appeared out of thin air. Inside this oval palace were three powerful beings. All three of them were made of pure skeletons, and they were obviously powerful beings of the Skeleton Clan from the first reincarnation era.

The Skeleton Clan was the pinnacle of the first era. Although their overall strength was slightly weaker than that of the Divine Eye Clan, it wasn't too far off. Otherwise, they wouldn't have fought against the Divine Eye Clan for countless years.

"Qinghe, it's been hundreds of billions of epochs since you last ventured into this spaceship!" A tall, eerie figure, entirely crimson as if formed from blood-red bones, chuckled. "Now that we're in the core area of ​​this spaceship, Li Hai and I must properly show you the hospitality of our host!"

"Haha..." A gigantic white crane figure, entirely composed of bones, laughed and said, "Red Pipa, I heard that tens of thousands of years ago, you and Li Hai joined forces to snatch a top-tier palace-type treasure from the demon race's Changjiu Lord in the primordial universe?"

The Lord of the Crimson Bird and the Lord of the Crying Sea are two extremely powerful cosmic lords among the Skeleton Clan. Both have reached the fifth level. Because they often act together, one is good at close combat and the other is good at speed. When the two join forces, they are enough to roam the cosmic sea.

"Hmph! Just a little guy from a primitive universe!"

The Lord of the Crying Sea scoffed, "That demon race can only show off their power in the primordial universe by having two of the strongest beings in the universe. This cosmic sea is not a place where they can act recklessly!"

"And then there's the Lord of Changjiu, who's said to be an extremely rare genius among the demon race. But in my opinion, his strength is still far inferior to that of the Chaos City Lord among the human race!"

"Of course!" Lord Qinghe nodded and said, "That Chaos City Lord was considered by the ancestor of the Purple Moon Holy Land to be the next fifth-tier Universe Lord with the best chance of becoming the strongest being in the universe. Although there were several Universe Lords stronger than him in my first and second reincarnation eras, they ultimately lost the opportunity to become the strongest being in the universe!"

"Speaking of which, a new super genius has recently emerged among the human race, named the Time Lord. I heard that he is currently cultivating in seclusion within the Black-Patterned Stone Pillar space. I wonder if either of you has met him?"

"Hmm!" The Lord of the Crying Sea nodded and said, "Thousands of years ago, when the Crimson Falcon went to rest in the Black-Patterned Stone Pillar space, it did catch a glimpse of that Time Lord from afar!"

"How is it? How strong is the opponent? Is he as powerful as rumored?" Lord Qinghe asked hurriedly.

"I'm not sure about that. At that time, the Lord of Time was focused on his cultivation within the space of that black-patterned stone pillar and didn't engage in any battles with other powerful beings," the Lord of the Crying Sea sighed. "However, his will is indeed extremely strong, probably comparable to those truly the strongest beings in the universe!"

"Such a powerful figure is truly astonishingly talented. I really wish I could fight him!" The Lord of the Azure Crane couldn't help but exclaim.

"Let's not talk about that now!" The Lord of the Crimson Birds changed the subject, continuing, "Azure Crane, the ruins you mentioned are in the Lava Sea. We need to cross this quicksand region first. Let's get going!"

"No..." The Lord of the Crying Sea was about to speak in agreement, but he couldn't help but frown.

At the same time, the Lord of the Azure Crane's eyes lit up as he carefully sensed it.

"That direction!"

"That's it!"

Soon, the three Lords of the Sea turned their heads to look in one direction at the same time. They all understood that there was movement there, and it was quite a movement.

"Azure Crane, shall we go or not?" the Lord of the Crying Sea asked.

"Haha, of course I'll go!" the Lord of the Azure Crane laughed. "I came to this cosmic ship for treasures, but I never expected to witness such a commotion in this Flowing Sand Domain!"

"Yes, although treasures occasionally appear in the Flowing Sands Domain, they are usually only high-level treasures. How could there be such a big commotion?"

The Lord of the Crying Sea said, "Perhaps there are powerful figures fighting there. If we go over, we might be able to take advantage of the situation!"

"Let's go!"

"Walk!"

Whoosh!

The oval palace vanished instantly and began to teleport continuously within the quicksand region.

The Lord of the Universe travels so swiftly through teleportation that a mere few million light-years is utterly insignificant.

So, almost immediately, the three leaders of the Crimson Bird Clan arrived at the area where Yang Wu and the two strongest beings in the universe, the Divine Eye Clan, were fighting.

Upon sensing the powerful domain permeating the surrounding space and time, the Crimson Falcon Lord's expression changed slightly: "Not good, it's the 'Star Kingdom' of the Third True Lord of the Divine Eye Clan!"

"They are actually the strongest beings in the universe from the Divine Eye Clan. How could they possibly appear in this Flowing Sand Domain?" The Lord of Azure Crane was quite puzzled at this moment.

It should be noted that the Flowing Sand Domain is a fairly safe area within the spaceship. Even if a supreme treasure occasionally appears, it is extremely ordinary and not worth the attention of the universe's strongest being.

"It seems that the Star Lord of the Divine Eye Clan is fighting with other powerful beings. It looks like there are other strongest beings from the Divine Eye Clan in the universe here. Otherwise, the Star Lord could not have used the Star Kingdom alone with such power!" The Lord of the Crying Sea said with a frown.

"Lord of Time, now that the three supreme treasures have been combined using a secret technique, I refuse to believe we can't kill you!"

Just then, a cold voice emanated from the starry realm.

"It's actually the Lord of Time?" The Lord of the Crying Sea couldn't help but show an expression of disbelief: "How could a mere Universe Lord possibly stop the Star Lord of the Divine Eye Clan?"

"Yes, according to what the Star Lord said, it seems that even the two strongest beings in the universe from the Divine Eye Clan, working together, couldn't defeat the other side?" The Lord of the Crimson Birds also showed an incredulous expression.

At the same time, Yang Wu and the others, who were engaged in battle, also noticed the appearance of the three leaders of the Crimson Falcon. However, the three of them were extremely far away and outside the spatial blockade range, so they could leave at any time.

At this moment, Yang Wu, upon seeing the even more terrifying Eternal True God, showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he once again unleashed his sixth-order secret technique, "Thunderous Might!"

Wow!

The moment the Blood-Stained Spear was thrust out, countless dazzling spear lights appeared in the surrounding space. Then, these countless spear lights converged and exploded instantly, annihilating all the surrounding matter and energy.

boom!

A muffled sound rang out, and Yang Wu was sent flying backward by the immense impact. Although he was clearly at a disadvantage, his divine body suffered little damage, almost imperceptible.

"What?"

"How is this possible?"

"It blocked it again?"

In that instant, everyone around was stunned.

Not only were the Star Lord and the Azure-Eyed Lord, who were attacking Yang Wu, stunned, but even the Three-Eyed Demon God, who had just spoken up to remind Yang Wu, was completely dumbfounded.

"How is that possible?"

"Even if I were to take the brunt of the strongest attack unleashed by the Star Lord and his companion, I would likely be injured. How could the Time Lord possibly be unharmed?"

"It must be the Dark Night Armor, it must be!"

"It seems that the Dark Night Nether Armor has indeed undergone a tremendous change in power after fusing with another component. Even among the strongest treasure armors, it should be considered extremely powerful!"

For a moment, the Three-Eyed Demon God was truly unable to accept it.

Just six months ago, he was able to suppress the Time Lord, but now the Time Lord's strength is comparable to his.

"I am the strongest being in the universe!" the Three-Eyed Demon God couldn't help but roar in his heart.

Although he knew in his heart that Yang Wu's future achievements would be extremely amazing, Yang Wu was only a universe master at the moment!

Meanwhile, the Five Lords and others, who had been watching the battle from inside the Forbidden Hall, also stared wide-eyed in astonishment at the scene before them.

Previously, when they saw the two Star Lords unleash their full power, they were secretly marveling at how Yang Wu's heaven-defying clone was about to be annihilated by the Divine Eye Clan.

"The Lord of Time is doomed!" That was what the three Lords of the Five Chaos thought at the time.

But at this moment—

"How, how is this possible?" The three leaders of the Five Chaos were completely dumbfounded.

How could the power of a universe lord be so terrifying? When has such a heaven-defying universe lord ever appeared in the cosmic sea?

"How is that possible?"

At this moment, both the Star Lord and the Azure-Eyed Lord were extremely astonished.

A feeling suddenly arose in their hearts... This time, they were afraid they would have to return empty-handed!

In fact, if Yang Wu had been the one before he obtained the Netherworld Armor, even if he had created a top-tier sixth-order secret technique, he would have lost at least 50% of his divine body if he had been attacked head-on by such a terrifying attack, and might even have been instantly annihilated.

However, after obtaining the Netherworld Armor, he became quite adept at handling such terrifying attacks.

At this time, the Netherworld Armor was still not complete. Although it did not elevate Yang Wu's strength by several levels like a complete mechanical treasure, it provided Yang Wu with two major benefits: divine power amplification and material defense.

Among them, the divine power amplification instantly propelled Yang Wu's attack, which had barely reached the seventh rank, to the eighth rank, while the material defense could reduce the attack's power to one millionth of its original strength!

While the combined attack of the Star Lord and the Azure-Eyed Lord was incredibly powerful, it could only barely reach the ninth level. After being partially neutralized by Yang Wu's attack, which had already reached the eighth level, and further weakened to one-millionth by the Netherworld Divine Armor, it was naturally difficult for it to pose any threat to Yang Wu.

In fact, if it were the strongest axe user, even without using the most powerful treasure, Yang Wu would probably have a hard time withstanding the opponent's full-force attack.

After all, the strongest of the giant axe masters had created their own top-tier eighth-order secret techniques, surpassing Yang Wu by two levels in terms of secret techniques. Even if Yang Wu wanted to use secret techniques to resist the opponent's attacks, it would be very difficult for him to do so.

But the Star Lord is different. Although he is powerful, the strongest secret technique he created is only at the top of the seventh rank. Although he can join forces with the Azure-Eyed Lord to unleash even greater power, the level of sophistication will be reduced again. It is naturally not difficult for Yang Wu to resist with his secret technique!

"Starry Sky, what do we do now?" Azure-Eyed True Lord transmitted his voice to Starry Sky True Lord, "This Time Lord's strength is probably not much different from mine. With our combined strength, it's simply impossible for us to kill this Time Lord!"

"To kill them, we'll probably need at least the teacher's intervention!"

"Indeed!" the Third True Lord echoed telepathically, "The Time Lord's strength has reached such an astonishing level; this cannot be achieved simply by possessing a supreme treasure!"

It should be noted that although there are not many sixth-order universe lords in the cosmic sea who possess supreme treasures, there are still more than ten of them. However, at most, they can only unleash the top strength of the sixth order, barely comparable to the weakest universe's strongest.

But now, the Lord of Time has broken this rule.

"Could it be that he has already created a secret technique comparable to the strongest beings in our universe?" At this moment, the Azure-Eyed True Lord was already somewhat doubtful: "Such a terrifying universe lord is probably rare even in ancient civilizations, isn't he?"

The Divine Eye Clan, after all, had received some complete inheritances from ancient civilizations, and therefore knew some of the hidden information of those ancient civilizations.

"For the Time Lord to possess such terrifying strength at the Universe Lord stage is even surpassing that of the Primordial Ancestor back then!" The Star Lord, suppressing his shock, continued via telepathy, "How to conclude this matter still needs to be discussed with the First True Lord before a decision can be made!"

"Yes!" the Blue-Eyed True Man nodded in agreement, saying, "How to resolve this matter should be decided by our teacher!"

It should be noted that when the Primordial Ancestor roamed the universe, even the First True Lord of the Divine Eye Clan was suppressed and defeated. As for the other strongest individuals, they could only flee in panic after encountering the Primordial Ancestor.

When the original ancestor was permanently suppressed by the primordial universe, most of the strongest beings in the universe secretly rejoiced and cheered, since no one wanted to have a powerful being by their side who could kill them at any time.

Now, a Time Lord who is even more powerful than the Primordial One has appeared. How the Divine Eye Clan should deal with this is indeed a question that the First True Lord needs to decide!

Thinking of this, the two Star Lords stopped attacking Yang Wu, and their divine power avatars left in the small universe went directly to the First True Lord.

……

Within the small universe of the First True Lord of the Divine Eye Clan, the seven avatars of the Divine Eye Clan are gathered together.

"Gentlemen, the third brother has explained the whole story clearly!"

Seated on the main seat, God the First spoke slowly: "Let's all share our opinions on how to handle this matter!"

"In my opinion, since killing that 'Kong Luo,' our Divine Eye Clan has not been able to establish its authority in the cosmic sea for a long time. To the point that even the Primordial Universe Human Race, a race with only one strongest being in the universe, dares to challenge the prestige of our Divine Eye Clan!"

The Fourth True Lord of the Divine Eye Clan spoke up: "So what if the Lord of Time is incredibly powerful? Could he possibly be a match for our teacher? If all else fails, all seven True Lords of the Divine Eye Clan will join forces. Surely we can kill that mere clone of his?"

"Indeed!" the First True Lord echoed. "The fact that the Lord of Time could unleash such astonishing power doesn't necessarily mean he created a secret technique at the level of the strongest being in the universe. Perhaps he possessed a priceless treasure. If my Divine Eye Clan could obtain that treasure, our chances of transcending reincarnation in the future would be even greater!"

"Kill him! Let the fall of that Light Lord demonstrate to the many powerful beings in the cosmic sea that the majesty of my Divine Eye Clan cannot be challenged!"

"I don't think this is appropriate!"

Just then, the Second True Lord of the Divine Eye Clan suddenly spoke up: "With the current strength of that Time Lord, he is probably already powerful enough to possess supreme treasures. If our Divine Eye Clan continues to send powerful warriors to target him, it will inevitably provoke widespread anger!"

It should be noted that the First True Lord of the Divine Eye Clan alone already possesses top-tier ninth-order strength. If the seven True Lords were to join forces, their power would be enough to reach the tenth-order level.

With such strength, they could probably kill some of the strongest beings in the universe who possess the most powerful treasures, but the Divine Eye Clan has never done so.

Because doing so would likely provoke public outrage. Even if the Divine Eye Clan were stronger, they would not be able to withstand all the powerful beings in the Cosmic Sea, especially since they also had the Skeleton Clan, a hostile race.

"Moreover, and more importantly, is the sheer terror of the Light Lord himself! Even if we kill one of his avatars, he can still revive with other avatars. Once he becomes the strongest being in the universe, he will inevitably cause trouble for our Divine Eye Clan!"

"Our Divine Eye Clan is nearing its end. We're already being lenient by not causing trouble for the human race. Do you think the human race would dare to provoke us?"

In an instant, the incarnations of the seven great gods gathered in the void, each expressing their different opinions.

"alright!"

The Divine Eye Lord finally spoke again: "For my Divine Eye Clan to transcend reincarnation, it's not something that can be achieved with just one or two supreme treasures. Since the Lord of Time has already possessed the strength to be acknowledged by the Third and Sixth Elders, let this matter end here!"

"Third brother, sixth brother, you two should handle this matter properly. There's no need to clash with Lord Time any further!"

"good!"

"Teacher, I understand!"

Both the Star Lord and the Azure-Eyed Lord nodded in agreement.

This is the benefit of having strength.

In fact, for Yang Wu, as long as he demonstrates a certain level of strength, there is no need to crush all his enemies. It is enough to let people know that he is not someone to be trifled with!

After all, none of the powerful beings in the cosmic sea are fools. If the gains are not proportional to the price paid, no one would be willing to do something that is both laborious and thankless.
