Swallowing the Stars: Primordial Heavenly Dragon

Chapter 37 The Twenty-Story Sky Bridge

"Heavenly Eclipse, Yan Yong is a genius of my Giant Axe Arena, so naturally he should become a disciple of a strongman from my Giant Axe Arena." A strongman dressed in green gauze robes, with ears longer and thinner than those of humans on Earth, appeared in the Tongtian Bridge plane.

"Venerable Ancestor Tree." The Universe Venerables of the Giant Axe Arena present all bowed to Venerable Ancestor Tree with excitement.

The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace also nodded slightly to Venerable Ancestral Tree as a greeting.

His original intention was not necessarily to take Yan Yong as a disciple, but he just did not want a pearl to be tarnished and for him to waste his time studying under an ordinary master.

"Let's wait and see. Once he's crossed the Tongtian Bridge, he can make his own choice." At this moment, another powerful figure appeared, clad in black armor, with two horns on his head and two bloodstains under his eyes. The temperature of the entire Tongtian Bridge plane dropped slightly the instant he appeared.

"Star Prison Demon Lord".

The three top overlords of the human race all gathered on this day.

After exchanging greetings, the three overlords all turned their gazes toward the 18th level of the giant axe-shaped bridge to heaven projected onto the screen.

"You are the first person in countless eons to reach this place by crossing the Heavenly Bridge on your first attempt. I would call you the strongest genius in the history of humanity." A mysterious figure slowly took shape from the neutron star.

"However..." Before he could finish speaking, Yan Yong's Heavenly Fire Halberd pressed down, and the mysterious figure had no choice but to shut up and fight back.

"when."

The Heavenly Fire Halberd slammed down, unleashing a raging sea of ​​fire. A fiery dragon roared from the eye of the fire and lunged at the gatekeeper.

The gatekeeper also exerted all his strength to wield the King-level weapon, the Wandering Dragon Heavenly Fire Halberd, and used the Fire and Void Law to fight back.

A blazing pillar of fire shot towards the charging dragon, and the two collided instantly, causing violent energy fluctuations to rage across the 18th level of the Sky Bridge.

"However, you should go back and cultivate for a few more years, shouldn't you?" The gatekeeper finally had a chance to say what had just been interrupted.

"Hmph." Yan Yong frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with the power of this move. The fifth-tier Heavenly Fire Halberd was far from keeping up with his own laws. He slammed the halberd down, unleashing the Amplification Secret Technique, and the aura of the Flame Dragon surged several times over in an instant. The Flame Dragon, which had been locked in a stalemate with the fire pillar, became even more frenzied, instantly shattering the fire pillar completely, and then pounced on the gatekeeper with unstoppable momentum.

"What?" The gatekeeper had not expected that the opponent had not yet used his full strength, and could only use teleportation to dodge in a sorry state.

"Can you hide?" The sea of ​​fire surged again, creating towering waves of fire, each wave seemingly capable of incinerating the void and sealing off the space where the guardian had teleported.

The gatekeepers could only desperately use secret techniques to unleash streaks of fire to block the attack, hoping to buy themselves time to escape.

"Die!" The Heavenly Fire Halberd slammed down again, and the already extremely frenzied fire dragon instantly expanded into a dragon-shaped fire vortex. The sea of ​​fire surged over and gathered together to restrain the gatekeeper, and then was completely swallowed up by the roaring fire vortex.

However, the Heavenly Fire Halberd simulated in Yan Yong's virtual universe was completely ruined; the fifth-order primal force weapon could no longer bear Yan Yong's power of law.

Having finally passed the 18th floor, the path to the 19th floor was revealed.

Yan Yong stepped on the waves of fire and transformed into a streak of flame, disappearing into the space on the 18th floor below.

"He has indeed passed the 18th floor. Now we'll see if he can pass the 19th floor in one go. However, without using the Flowing Cloud Palace Master's enhancement technique, the chances are not very high. After all, the spatial laws of the 19th floor are extremely profound. Moreover, the Giant Axe Bridge to Heaven is not just a test of laws. Even with the understanding of the laws of the 20th floor of the ordinary Bridge to Heaven, it is not certain that he can pass it," said the Star Prison Demon Lord.

"Indeed, his understanding of the laws is indeed impressive, but he has only studied the Chaos Stele for seven days. He should only have time to fully comprehend the first four diagrams. Once he studies the Chaos Stele a few more times, he will be able to completely transform the accumulated understanding of the laws into strength. At that time, breaking through to the 20th level will not be difficult." Venerable Ancestral Tree's eyes also showed some appreciation.

It is truly astonishing that Yan Yong was able to reach this level all by himself; he is comparable to a super being who became a supreme being in the early stages of the primordial universe.

"It seems that even the three of us are not quite qualified to be his teachers," the Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace added.

"I have already contacted the Void Gold Master of my Giant Axe Arena." Venerable Ancestral Tree said as he sent an email. "Baffin, and everyone present, be sure to keep Yan Yong's information confidential. Although it may be a little too late, block as much as you can. We cannot let Yan Yong be exposed to the alien races."

Those present were all Universe Venerables from the Giant Axe Arena. The other powerful individuals who were preparing to cross the Heavenly Bridge had already quietly left when this group of Venerables arrived and started arguing. After all, watching the Venerables' commotion might cost them their lives, so they all consciously kept their distance and naturally did not have the opportunity to see Yan Yong's subsequent challenge video.

"Hmm? It seems we don't need to worry about this." The three cosmic overlords simultaneously received an email. The sender told them not to interfere in Yan Yong's apprenticeship. The three smiled knowingly and then turned their attention back to Yan Yong's ascent of the Tongtian Bridge.

"Boom!" Outside the black hole space of the nineteenth-level sky bridge, the battle between Yan Yong and the gatekeeper had entered a white-hot stage.

The guardian of the 19th floor no longer uses the same Force weapon, the halberd, as Yan Yong did, but instead uses a King-level Force battle axe.

Each swing of the battle axe seemed to create its own world, carrying a strange fluctuation that suppressed Yan Yong's application of the laws.

"This is it." Faced with the attack of the 19th floor guardian, the strange fluctuations made him feel as if his fighting spirit was being awakened. However, the fluctuations on the 19th floor were still relatively weak and could not be fully awakened.

When he was choosing the Chaos Stele, he felt this kind of fluctuation from the rubbing of the Giant Axe Chaos Stele. However, he didn't expect that apart from the first time he felt it, he didn't have that strange feeling again after comprehending the first four pictures of the Giant Axe Chaos Stele.

After exchanging blows with the gatekeeper dozens of times, he realized that the strange fluctuations could no longer ignite his fighting spirit, so he prepared to end the battle, hoping to encounter some surprises on the 20th floor.

The amplification technique "Endless Galaxy" was fully unleashed, and Yan Yong instantly unleashed the basic power of a peak world lord 80 times. The gatekeepers, on the other hand, were simulated based on the physical condition of ordinary humans. Without the amplification technique, they could only unleash the basic power of a peak world lord 1 times. Yan Yong quickly reversed the offensive and cut down the gatekeepers.

The re-formed Heavenly Fire Halberd was destroyed once again.

The clouds on the 19th floor finally dissipated, revealing the path to the 20th floor.

"Phew." Upon reaching the 20th floor, Yan Yong couldn't help but let out a long breath. Once he crossed this 20th floor of the Heavenly Bridge, he would be comparable to the strongest human geniuses in history. At that time, many cosmic venerables would probably be willing to take him as a disciple, and it wouldn't be impossible for him to even become the master of the Chaos City Lord.

Suppressing his inner turmoil, Yan Yong looked at the newly appeared gatekeeper, who, like the gatekeeper of the 19th floor, was using a King-level Force Battle Axe.

Yan Yong flipped his hand, and the halberd used by the 18th level gatekeeper appeared in his hand. The fifth-tier weapon could only barely hold out for a short while when facing the 18th level gatekeeper. He almost couldn't hold on when facing the 19th level gatekeeper. Fortunately, he quickly burst out and killed his opponent. Otherwise, he would have faced a situation of fighting bare-handed with a blade.

"You've reached this point on your first attempt at crossing the Sky Bridge. Do you know how amazing that is?" The guardian of the 20th floor said with respect and admiration as soon as he took shape.

"Defeating you will make me even more amazing." Before the words were even finished, Yan Yong's halberd slammed down on the garrulous gatekeeper.

"Boom!" The fiery dragon swallowed the gatekeeper whole with an unstoppable momentum.

"I'm not like the gatekeepers before me."

The gatekeeper appeared behind Yan Yong, and teleported away just as the attack was about to land.

The guardian of the 18th floor had his teleportation space blocked by a sea of ​​fire, leaving him nowhere to hide. The guardian of the 19th floor had been using his battle axe to unleash powerful secret techniques and strange earth fluctuations to suppress him. By the time he unleashed his power, the opponent had nowhere to hide and was finally killed by him with a single halberd strike.

Now, the guardian of the 20th floor is teleporting right up and fighting against me.

"Unfortunately, the innate secret technique of controlling space cannot be used in this virtual universe. I have not yet mastered the spatial mystery of spatial sealing." Seeing that the opponent was slippery, Yan Yong could only continue to use the Dragon Soaring Out of the Sea technique, hoping to seal the opponent's teleportation space as he had done with the 18th level gatekeeper.

This forces the opponent to endure its attacks regardless of which spatial node they emerge from, compelling them to confront it head-on.

This is the second chapter today. Thank you to 'Memory Fades and Lingering Warmth' for the two monthly tickets. Thank you, big brother! Long live big brother!

Oh, I just checked the chapter I posted early this morning and there was a problem. You don't need the Amplification Technique for level 17 at all; just brute force your way through using the laws and top-tier King-level techniques. Level 17 isn't King-level enough, so the techniques are already a level lower. You'll only need some Amplification Techniques for level 18, and you'll need to go all out for level 19.

Finally, as always, I'm asking for votes, favorites, investments, and to keep reading.
