Swallowing the Stars: Primordial Heavenly Dragon

"Look, none of the humans from their original universe have stopped to comprehend this, which means this matter is related to them," a universe lord from the Purple Moon Holy Land immediately shouted, pointing to the location of the Hong Alliance.

Those who inherited the lineage of Earth found it amusing. They realized that they themselves had poor temperaments and would make a fuss over the slightest disturbance in the outside world, instead of using their own brains to think things through and blaming them for being calm.

However, they did not respond to each other. The Dean, the pillar of the universe, was still there. These matters were not for them to worry about. They should just focus on understanding the solution and achieving better results to please the Dean.

"That's right, it was me. Are you trying to avenge those three?" Zhou Heng's clone stood up, holding a halberd in his hand.

Although the Purple Moon Holy Land did not cause him any trouble, he knew very well what kind of despicable person the Purple Moon Ancestor was.

Whether in the original work or some fan fiction, the Purple Moon Ancestor is like a persistent, disgusting leech.

Therefore, in his mind, he always regarded the Purple Moon Holy Land as a potential enemy.

The reason the other party is keeping quiet is simply because they can't do anything to me. They will definitely jump out and disgust me as soon as they get the chance.

"You..." The lord of the Purple Moon Holy Land was speechless for a moment.

"If you want revenge, then go ahead and do it. I believe Senior Duan Donghe won't stop you from courting death." Yan Yong looked at Duan Donghe's consciousness and, after receiving a smile in response, continued, "If it's not for revenge, then stop barking."

The cosmic lord of the Purple Moon Holy Land was furious, and dared not retaliate or even utter a word.

"When it comes to cursing, the strategist is the best. The dean's cursing is all bland and ineffective. The strategist's mouth is truly formidable. It's a pity that the strategist isn't keen on fighting and didn't come this time," muttered the dark-faced man called Yide.

"Black-faced thief, aren't you good at cursing too? Why don't you step forward and scold that alien race on behalf of the Dean?" A man who was ten feet tall and had a waist ten spans in circumference, wearing a purple-gold hair-binding crown, said with a smile.

"Hahaha~" Another burst of laughter came from the location of the Hong Alliance, which stood in stark contrast to the silence of the powerful figures in other factions.

The powerful figures from other forces, especially the seven strongest beings in the universe who were currently resolving the situation, were all terrified.

Those three strongest beings in the universe are all top-tier eighth-order experts, and none of them dare to say that they can reliably defeat any one of them.

If the three of them were killed by the Lord of the Heavenly Dragon at the same time, then the outcome wouldn't be much different if the seven of them joined forces.

At this point, they had no mind to continue comprehending and solving the problem. If they accidentally surpassed the other disciple in their comprehension progress, and the other party unleashed a single halberd strike, they would be finished.

"Don't worry, those three violated the original will of the primordial universe, colluded with that world beast, and attempted to harm the primordial universe. I was ordered by the original will to kill them," Yan Yong explained with a smile.

He's a good person, and he can't let his opponent be terrified during the match; that would be an unfair victory.

"World Beasts?" The powerful beings of the Cosmic Sea asked in confusion, not knowing what World Beasts were.

As a lineage that has produced powerful Divine Kings and is an important lineage of the Wu Kingdom, the Duan Donghe lineage naturally knows what a Beast of the Realm is.

"This cycle of reincarnation has actually given birth to a Beast of the Realm?" Duan Donghe said in disbelief.

He knew all too well how terrifying the Beasts of the Realm were.

"Tianlong, accept my Duan Donghe's inheritance now. Only in this way can you overcome the crisis of the Realm Beasts. The Realm Beasts are not something that your Cosmic Sea forces can solve," Duan Donghe Zhenkan immediately said.

If the inheritor of the Broken East River is unable to defeat the World Beasts and is killed by them, the inheritance will likely be broken.

With the help of Duan Donghe's inheritance, the Lord of Heavenly Dragons was confident that he could enable his opponent to defeat the World Beast.

At the same time, he also saw the hope of enticing Yan Yong to become the successor of the Broken East River.

"Senior, I am confident that I can defeat the Beast of the Realm. You can rest assured to pass on the skill to Luo Feng," Yan Yong said with a smile.

"Tianlong, you don't know how terrifying the Realm Beasts are..." Duan Donghe thought that Yan Yong only knew about the Realm Beasts from the Primordial Universe and didn't know how terrifying they really were.

"Senior, the inheritance I received once enslaved the Beast of the Realm," Yan Yong explained with a smile.

He wasn't lying. As the strongest power in that era, the Wei Kingdom had a World Beast under the command of the Wei Emperor. Once he broke through to become the strongest in the universe and unlocked the Wei Emperor's legacy, he would be able to obtain the method to enslave the World Beast.

This news was recorded on a stone tablet that appeared during the recent upgrade of the Wei world.

This stone tablet did not record any inheritance or secret techniques, but it did record some history of the Wei Kingdom. Although the history was incomplete and only a small, scattered part, it just happened to mention the matter of this Beast of the Realm.

The powerful figures from other factions craned their necks, eager to hear what this Beast of the Realm was.

Why they could "harm" the Primal Universe, and why they made even a powerful figure like Duan Donghe from an ancient civilization feel troubled, were not of much concern to them as to why the Primal Universe wanted to kill those three strongest beings in the universe.

They only care whether this Beast of the Realm is an opportunity, whether it can help their power reach a higher level, or even break through the cycle of reincarnation.

Duan Donghe could see the expressions of all the powerful figures present, but he did not intend to introduce the Beast of the Realm to them.

Of all the inheritors present, he only cared about the Lord of the Heavenly Dragon.

Currently, the top 100 inheritors are all members of his Earth lineage, so the other inheritors are naturally dispensable.

If the Lord of Heavenly Dragons wanted to understand the Beasts of the Realm, he would have spent some time explaining it to him. But since the other party didn't need it, he had no desire to continue and immediately reverted to his aloof and icy expression.

Seeing that Duan Donghe had no intention of saying more, the powerful figures from the three eras of reincarnation could only reluctantly withdraw their gazes.

Duan Donghe was unwilling to admit that they couldn't force the other side.

The Lord of Heavenly Dragons didn't want to talk about it, and they didn't even dare to ask.

However, they dared not ask, but someone else did.

"Dean, could you tell us about it?" The dark-faced man stood up, bowed, and asked 'very respectfully'.

"Alright, then I'll tell you about this Beast Realm." Yan Yong said with a smile, hoping to attract the attention of other powerful humans and give them some motivation.

"This all started with our original universe."

"Whether it's our three great cycles of reincarnation or the Holy Land universe, all life originated from the primordial universe."

All the inheritors present nodded, and even the universe lord of the Holy Land Universe did not refute this fact.

"Therefore, the primordial universe represents the source of life and vitality."

"Everything has two sides; where there is life, there is death." This statement was unanimously agreed upon by the powerful figures of Earth, while some of the powerful figures from other forces were bewildered.

There is no such dualistic process of enlightenment in the process of becoming the master of the universe, but they dared not interrupt Yan Yong's narration.

"And the Beasts of the Realm are the opposite of the primordial universe; they represent destruction and death," Yan Yong continued.

"The birth of each Beast King symbolizes destruction. It will destroy all life in the cosmic sea, and all small universes, including the primordial universe, will not escape its calamity."

Upon hearing this, some powerful figures were shocked. The Cosmic Sea had never destroyed a small universe of the strongest being in the universe, let alone the primordial universe.

One can imagine how terrifying that Beast of the Realm must be.

"Those three Ancestral Gods, Qiuyan and his companions, colluded with the Beasts of the Realm to plot against the Primordial Universe, which is why they perished at my hands."

"Dean, since there are World Beast Kings among the World Beasts, there must also be ordinary World Beasts. I wonder what kind of strength these ordinary World Beasts possess?" The red-faced man also stood up, bowed, and asked for guidance.

"Before a true king is born, the World Beasts are in the gestation period, and these World Beasts in the gestation period are divided into six ranks. Each rank one World Beast is equivalent to the strongest being in the universe of the universe."

"And at the very beginning of the gestation period, there were a billion world beasts."

"What?"

"A billion World Beasts, each one at least comparable to the strongest being in the universe?"

"Then aren't we doomed?"

"How terrifying is the Beast King of that realm?"

The crowd below erupted into whispers, unable to contain themselves any longer.

"Quiet down! The dean is still speaking. What are you all shouting about?" The dark-faced man roared, his voice like thunder.

The group of powerful figures who had been whispering immediately fell silent.

Despite his status as a supreme being of the universe, he was able to intimidate the lords of various universes.

"However, there's no need to worry too much. The growth of these World Beasts doesn't significantly improve one's strength. The so-called second- and third-tier World Beasts merely gain more abilities, without making a noticeable difference in their inherent strength."

Of course, this statement was a lie, merely meant to comfort these fearful and anxious powerful beings in the cosmic sea.

If we scare them all, who knows what kind of troublesome things these hopeless losers might do?

The pressure should be placed entirely on him, the strongest being in the universe.

"Moreover, these world beasts are naturally reluctant to leave their lair. Generally speaking, world beasts in their gestation period will fight fiercely in their lair to give birth to the final king."

"They will only leave the lair after the final king is born, so as long as you don't go to the lair of the Beast Realm, you will not be in any danger."

"Of course, nothing is absolute."

After they finished speaking, the powerful figures fell silent again and continued to unravel the Rhinoceros Emperor's Formation.

Just now, Duan Donghe said that with the help of Duan Donghe's inheritance, they could overcome the crisis of the World Beasts, which gave them even more motivation to compete for the inheritance.

Moreover, the Xi Huang Ju is merely the threshold for obtaining the inheritance. As long as the Galaxy Lord does not break through the fourth bottleneck within the stipulated time, there is still a chance to compete for the final inheritance.

It's not time to give up yet.

……

In the virtual universe, at the Heavenly Dragon Temple, the strongest humans convened once again for the Heavenly Dragon Conference, their highest-level meeting.

"Tianlong, is this Realm Beast really that strong?" The Primordial Ancestor was the first to ask.

A billion true gods—this terrifying power cannot be dismissed with a single, casual remark.

The ultimate king who emerges from among these billion world beasts is capable of destroying the primordial universe. He, who has been suppressed by the primordial universe for trillions of epochs, understands the terrifying nature of the primordial universe best.

"These World Beasts will be stronger than I said before. A sixth-tier World Beast is equivalent to a thirteenth-tier expert. A World Beast King is at least a fourteenth-tier expert."

Upon hearing this, the Primordial Ancestor and the others fell silent; it was the fourteenth rank.

The original ancestor was only at the tenth level back then. Even if he hadn't been suppressed, it's unknown how long it would have taken him to reach the fourteenth level.

It is foreseeable that the birth of the World Beast King will not exceed this cycle of reincarnation; otherwise, the three strongest beings in the universe from the first cycle of reincarnation would not have sought refuge with the World Beast.

"Don't worry, teacher, I have a plan." Yan Yong was very confident in dealing with the Beast of the Realm.

He no longer tries to curry favor with Lord Luo like he did when he first arrived; now, he is the one who benefits.

From the perspective of the halberd path, he is an eternal true god, and it is only a matter of time before he creates a fourteenth-order secret technique.

Moreover, to deal with a sixth-order world beast, he only needs to create a twelfth-order secret technique to reach the fourteenth-order combat power with the support of the Halberd Intent and the Imperial Dragon Halberd.

……

After collecting the treasures scattered on the ground after killing the three strongest beings in the universe, Yan Yong stepped into the Tower of Babel and continued his journey.

He hadn't forgotten that his main objective for this trip was to capture and suppress at least one Beast Realm to delay the birth of the Beast Realm King.

However, what he didn't know was that the Beasts of the Realm already knew about his arrival in the Dark Land.

"These three pieces of trash are truly pathetic." A Beast of the Realm sensed the fall of its three servants. "I should have just eaten them to satisfy my craving. I originally intended to use them to lure the true gods born from the primordial universe to their deaths, but I didn't manage to attract a single one. Instead, I died first."

Unable to communicate through the mark of enslavement, it was unaware that the other party had been killed by Yan Yong and instead believed that it had stumbled into danger while exploring a treasure.

"A powerful human has arrived in the Dark Land." At this moment, a message came through the World Beast's communication network.

"What kind of human can be called powerful?" a Beast of the Realm retorted disdainfully. "Mohe, you're a disgrace."

In their view, all life in the Cosmic Sea was weak and fragile. If it weren't for the fact that they wanted to produce the ultimate king as soon as possible, they would have already plundered the Cosmic Sea. There were no humans who could be considered powerful.

"I just saw a very terrifying human in the dim light," Mohe quickly explained.

"This human was able to easily kill three true gods before even breaking through to become a true god. Even though I was far away, I could feel the terror of that attack. Even I couldn't withstand that halberd strike."

"Impossible!" A Beastman exclaimed in disbelief. "Mohe, you are a second-tier Beastman, about to break through to the third tier."

Not just one, but many world beasts didn't believe this explanation. How could a frail cosmic sea creature possibly unleash such a terrifying attack at the level of a universe master?

"It's true, I saw it with my own eyes, he's heading this way. If you don't believe me, you can go and try it," Mohe said with great certainty.

"When he gets here, I'll show this arrogant human how terrifying the Beasts of the Realm are," a Beast of the Realm said confidently.

"Jerome, be careful. At least get more human intelligence back before you die," Mohe warned.

It didn't try to dissuade the other party; the more fools like that, the better, so that it could more easily become the final king of the world beasts. As long as the other party could obtain more information before being killed by humans, then the other party's death would be worthwhile.

"Mohe, I won't be like you, scared away by a human and slinking back in disgrace," Jerome chuckled. (End of Chapter)
