Swallowing the Stars: Primordial Heavenly Dragon

Yan Yong proceeded cautiously, and his battle with Jerome definitely revealed his true strength.

If they continued their high-profile advance, it might provoke a rebellion among the realm beasts. He wanted to test whether the Tower of Babel, this supreme treasure, could conceal the location of the realm beasts' mutual sensing, allowing him to approach other lone realm beasts. Even if it couldn't, he could hand Jerome over to the Xuan Kong Palace for suppression. Although this divine king's supreme treasure wasn't as powerful as the Tower of Babel, it was still sufficient to completely suppress the realm beasts when combined with other methods.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that he had captured the most stubborn "King of Beasts" in history. Not only was his strength not exposed, but in the eyes of the other beasts, his strength was just average.

Many powerful beasts are searching for his whereabouts.

Strive to achieve the first kill in this cosmic sea.

Yan Yong was intimidated by Mohe, who was extremely powerful even among second-tier world beasts. If he could kill him, it would definitely boost his reputation.

Perhaps at a crucial moment, such fame will allow them to devour even more world beasts.

……

High-level meeting of the Northern Xinjiang Alliance.

"What do you think of the Lord of Dragon Flame's statement that he wants to lead the Flame God Clan to break away from the Flame Emperor, leave the Nine Domains Alliance, and join our Northern Frontier Alliance?" asked the Lord of the Star River, who was in charge of presiding over the meeting.

"I think it's unacceptable. The Flame God Clan are traitors to humanity. The Lord of the Heavenly Dragon is currently at the height of his power, and he might find time to deal with them someday. Would our Northern Frontier Alliance really have to become enemies with the Lord of the Heavenly Dragon for the sake of the Flame God Clan?" The Lord of the Black Lotus was the first to object.

The Lord of the Black Lotus is also a top-tier fifth-order powerhouse, and as the representative of plant life in the Northern Frontier Alliance, his words carry great weight. Even a powerful figure with profound prestige like the Lord of the Star River has to take them seriously.

"I think it's acceptable," said Liulan Star Lord, the spiritual leader of the Liulan Clan, the largest clan in the Northern Frontier Alliance. "No matter how strong the Heavenly Dragon Lord is, he's just an ordinary strongest being in the Primal Universe. Why should our Northern Frontier Alliance be afraid of him?"

"Moreover, the Yan God Clan has long since separated from humanity and is no longer related to humankind. The fact that they have come to surrender with their entire clan at this moment demonstrates the power and prestige of our Northern Frontier Alliance and shows that we are deeply popular. If we refuse them outright, will any other clans dare to surrender to our Northern Frontier Alliance in the future?"

"Why don't we wait and see what the Yan God Clan is up to? Why are they suddenly breaking up with the Yan Emperor and even abandoning the Nine Domains Alliance?" Lord Qi Lan suggested.

"The reason why the Flame God Clan broke away from the Nine Domains Alliance is simply to seek refuge with a force that has the strongest being in the universe, hoping that the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader will resurrect that Flame God Venerable." The Lord of the Star River directly pointed out the Lord of Dragon Flame's plan.

"If that's the case, it's not unacceptable. Most of the clans that have come to join my Northern Frontier Alliance are after the Alliance Leader of the Northern Frontier." Lord Qilan nodded. "However, getting the Alliance Leader to take action won't be easy. The Yan God Clan will have to make a contribution first."

The leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance is the strongest individual in the Lone Warrior Universe. He was invited by the Northern Frontier Alliance to become its leader, but he doesn't concern himself with any affairs, big or small; he only cares about taking the benefits.

Getting him to revive a powerful figure is different from having a powerful figure like the Giant Axe Founder who has a clan.

To make the Hong Alliance more cohesive, powerful figures like the Giant Axe Creator often take the initiative to assume responsibility, making their actions much cheaper, or even sometimes free.

"The cost of the intervention will naturally be borne by the Yan God Clan. Let's discuss whether to accept the Yan God Clan," the Lord of the Star River added.

"Why not ask the Alliance Leader for his opinion? He's the one who should be handling this, and he'll be the first to bear the brunt of the Heavenly Dragon Lord's wrath." The Black Lotus Lord chose to back down.

"Alright, I'll contact the Alliance Leader." The Lord of the Star River nodded and then began to contact the Alliance Leader of the Northern Frontier.

hum~

An elderly man with a full white beard and wrinkled skin appeared at the meeting.

"Alliance Leader."

The cosmic lords present all stood up respectfully and said that although the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance was a hands-off manager, the Northern Frontier Alliance truly owed its prestige to the other party's reputation.

"Tell the Lord of Dragon Flame that our Northern Frontier Alliance does not accept traitors," the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader said directly.

"Yes!" The Northern Frontier Alliance quickly reached a consensus, and even Liulan Star Lord, who had previously supported accepting the Yan God Clan, did not say anything more.

As the Lord of the Black Lotus said, if the Lord of the Heavenly Dragon were to unleash his wrath, this Alliance Leader would be the first to suffer.

He also doesn't have the habit of being generous with other people's money.

The Lord of the Star River directly approached the Lord of Dragon Flame and informed him of the Northern Frontier Alliance's decision.

"Sigh~" The Lord of Dragon Flame felt very sad upon hearing this.

The Yan God Clan's two changes of allegiance are indeed acts of treason, and their reputation has been completely ruined.

However, the Yan God Clan must break free from the control of the Yan God Clan; there is no other way.

"It's understandable that the Northern Frontier Alliance won't take in my Yan God Clan." Lord Longyan didn't complain; he could only look for the next power.

There are nine super powers in the primordial universe that possess the strongest beings in the universe. Among them, the strongest being in the universe of the Ancestral God Cult can only exert the combat power of the strongest being in the universe in the primordial universe, and is not considered the true strongest being in the universe.

The Northern Frontier Alliance has already rejected them, and the Starry Sky Beast Alliance will not accept the Flame God Clan either; they will not accept any non-Starry Sky Beast life forms.

That leaves only the six top clans.

The demon race was wiped out, and the insect race and the mechanical race had a deep-seated hatred for humans, so he still had some reservations about joining these two major forces.

After all, the Yan God Clan, as part of humanity, had incurred considerable hatred with these other races.

It is only because the newly born Flame God Clan did not experience that era that they joined the three major alliance forces in a daze to hone their skills on the outer battlefield.

"Then only the Crystal Clan and the Prison Clan are left. Let's try the Prison Clan first, since their territory is closer." After making up his mind, Lord Dragon Flame flew towards the Prison Clan Alliance.

He had considered seeking help from the Mountain Hermit, but the Mountain Hermit was elusive and mysterious, and being the Yan Emperor's teacher, it was hard to say who the other party would actually help.

……

Purple Moon Sacred Land Universe, Purple Moon Cliff.

"Ancestor, the Eastern Emperor Holy Land has already arranged for the Northern True Star Lord to contact the Heavenly Dragon Lord in exchange for the inheritance. Does our Purple Moon Holy Land really not need to take any action?" After returning to the Purple Moon Holy Land, the True God of Awakening immediately came to Purple Moon Cliff to meet with the Purple Moon Ancestor.

"Go and think of a way to kill the Lord of the Heavenly Dragons," said the Purple Moon Ancestor.

"..." True God Juehua opened his mouth, unsure what to say. "Should I go and kill the Lord of the Heavenly Dragons?"

He had faced the Lord of the Heavenly Dragons head-on, and even a casual strike from the other party severely damaged his divine body.

He doesn't have a miniature universe to replenish his strength; he'll have to rely on the accumulation of years to recover from his injuries.

If he hadn't been wearing the supreme treasure armor at the time, he probably would have needed countless years to recover from that attack.

"Sigh~" Ancestor Ziyue sighed. He knew that it was a pipe dream to think that he could kill this peerless genius by relying on these true gods.

Moreover, with the threat of the World Beasts looming, he still needs to rely on the Lord of the Heavenly Dragons to defeat them; otherwise, his small universe will be destroyed under the rampage of the World Beasts.

By then, any opportunity for inheritance will be useless.

But getting him to give up isn't so simple, after all, it's a grand plan meticulously crafted over hundreds of reincarnations.

"Let's see what the Eastern Emperor has to say first." The Purple Moon Ancestor waved his hand, signaling the True God of Awakening to step back first.

"Why am I so unlucky? I've only been a Void God for a short time!" Ancestor Purple Moon said resentfully. "I finally managed to scheme to have that human try to possess the Primordial Universe and get suppressed, and then this Heavenly Dragon Lord appeared. A mere Universe Lord can reach the tenth rank and even comprehend the 'Halberd Dao' ability. Now I'm being told that the Realm Beast has already been born?"

"I hope that the Lord of the Heavenly Dragon and the Beast of the Realm can both be severely injured and die together. And Luo Feng, they should all die!" Ancestor Ziyue prayed.

……

On the other side, the Eastern Emperor Ancestor and Yan Yong reached an agreement: the Eastern Emperor Ancestor would exchange ten supreme treasures, the ancient civilization inheritance he had obtained, and maps of various forbidden lands in the universe for Yan Yong's experience guidance that would enable him to cultivate to the limit of the Void True God.

As far as Yan Yong knew, the Eastern Emperor Ancestor did not join a major power on the Origin Continent like the Purple Moon Ancestor.

Therefore, the other party's cultivation relied entirely on their own exploration and some scattered guidance.

Giving someone guidance on cultivating to the limit of a Void True God is enough to make them interested.

Yan Yong was not worried that the Eastern Emperor could use his will to become a saint and seize the original universe.

The first thing given to the other party is the experience of cultivating to the limit of the Void True God. It is still uncertain whether the other party can cultivate to the limit of the Void True God based on this, let alone go further.

Moreover, if the other party truly achieves sainthood through willpower and understands the benefits of possessing the original universe, it won't be because of this transaction; the other party will inevitably join a major power.

Given that the Eastern Emperor has potential surpassing that of the Purple Moon Ancestor, it's only a matter of time before he joins a major power.

At that time, Yan Yong's will had become so powerful that he could easily kill the Eastern Emperor's consciousness if it dared to leave his small universe.

……

Inside the Tower of Babel, which continues its high-speed journey in a dimly lit place.

Yan Yong had just taken a clump of blood from the World Beast Jerome to study the World Beast's life gene levels.

"Human, what do you want to do?" Jerome screamed in his mind.

It was completely suppressed and could not even open its mouth to speak.

Yan Yong quietly looked at the large mass of blood, which was as large as a basin, and it was suspended in front of Yan Yong by the suction of the Tower of Babel.

"Is this the blood of the Beast of the Realm?" Yan Yong manipulated the Tower of Babel to disperse the large mass of blood, turning it into countless drops of blood.

Yan Yong observed each drop of blood, trying to uncover its secrets.

"You, a mere human, dare to study the blood of my great Beast King Jerome?" Though unable to speak, Jerome's heart remained unyielding.

It firmly believed that Yan Yong had used trickery to suppress it, and once it escaped and became a true king, it would definitely avenge this great grudge.

Yan Yong's purpose in coming to the Dark Land was to capture the Beasts of the Realm and study their life gene maps, so he naturally brought his Phoenix Avatar and Endless Nether Sea Avatar with him.

"Innate Secret Technique... Nirvana!" The phoenix clone tilted its head back and swallowed a drop of world beast blood.

The incredibly powerful primordial fire instantly enveloped it.

A thin line of fire pierced through the blood of this smallest unit of the Beast Realm.

With the interlacing of these tiny sparks, the mystery of this drop of black blood was quickly unveiled, and its internal structure began to reveal itself to Yan Yong.

"Hooray~"

The blood of this Beast Realm is composed of tiny specks of light formed by 100,000 miniature Beast Realms.

One hundred thousand microscopic world beasts roared with their heads raised, while others brandished their claws, displaying the various physical forms of the world beasts.

The tiny fire line branched out into even smaller twigs, trying to penetrate the 100,000 microscopic world beasts and analyze their life genetic map more deeply.

"Roar~"

Huo Xian approached the miniature world beasts, only to be met with a counterattack from them, their claws lashing out.

Yan Yong frowned and continued to maneuver the fire line toward these miniature world beasts.

With a soft thud, the fire line successfully pierced through the claws of the microscopic world beast.

Bang bang~

Blood splattered everywhere, turning from its original bright, obsidian-like black to a dull black, as it was consumed by the divine power of the phoenix avatar.

"It failed," the phoenix clone said regretfully.

"That doesn't make sense! Luo Feng, that kid, was able to analyze the blood of a World Beast using the innate secret technique of the Endless Nether Sea. There's no reason why this Phoenix clone, with its even more powerful Nirvana, wouldn't be able to analyze it."

The Phoenix clone's Nirvana talent is extremely extraordinary. Since he possesses both clones, he naturally knows which clone's talent is more extraordinary.

Even the breakthrough of 6 times in gene expression was achieved through the phoenix's rebirth.

"Could it be that there is some secret about the Nine Nether Sea that I don't know about?" He handed over another drop of blood, and controlled it to send it into the sky above the Nine Nether Sea.

"Innate Secret Technique... Creation!"

The innate secret technique of the Nine Nether Sea quickly and successfully enveloped the drop of blood, beginning to analyze the life gene map within it.

puff~

Blood splattered everywhere, swallowed by the waves of the Netherworld Sea, and the analysis failed once again.

"Is there any chance of success? Luo Feng was lucky, so he succeeded on his first try, while I need to try several more times."

Yan Yong figured that since he had captured a live Beast of the Realm and had plenty of blood, he began to experiment.

Failure, failure, failure... It was all failure until the blood he extracted from Jerome was completely used up by the Phoenix clone and the Nine Nether Sea, and he still failed to decipher the life gene map of the World Beast.

Yan Yong began to ponder the differences between his analysis of the Beast of Realms' blood and Luo Feng's analysis.

"Luo Feng was at the 89999-fold genetic level at the time, and he was analyzing the blood of a third-tier world beast, while I am only at the 69999-fold level now. My understanding of genes is far inferior to Luo Feng's, so sometimes I might be a bit too heavy-handed when analyzing. In addition, I am only analyzing the blood of a second-tier world beast, and the blood's tolerance is far inferior to that of a third-tier beast, so I have not been able to succeed."

After summarizing, Yan Yong abandoned his plan to continue analyzing Jerome's blood and turned his attention to the secret technique "Wu Zu".

Although "Wu Zu" cannot directly cultivate to 90,000 times the gene, it has a life gene map of more than 90,000 times.

When the Wei Emperor obtained this secret technique, he said that at the peak of the Wei Kingdom, there were three Universe Lords with 90,000 times the gene strength. After a complete era of accumulation, there were countless such powerful individuals.

When these cosmic masters broke through to become true gods, they would leave behind their physical materials for the "Wu Zu" secret method to record genetic maps for guidance.

Although Yan Yong only obtained guidelines for "The Warrior" without any supporting materials, it still has some reference value. (End of Chapter)
