Swallowing the Stars: Primordial Heavenly Dragon

Chapter 43 Comprehending the Three Great Mysteries of Space

Finally, they arrived at the seventh picture. The requirement for the seventh picture of the Chaos Stele is to comprehend the entire law of space. Yan Yong's previous understanding of the law was about to be exhausted. Yan Yong also successfully comprehended the 'teleportation' among the three profound mysteries.

As his mind sank into the seventh image, the 27 towering giant axes tore through the space the moment they appeared, and countless spatial fragments surrounded the axes, forming a powerful spatial turbulence.

If this spatial turbulence could appear in reality, even ordinary kings and immortals could be easily torn apart.

"Phew." This seventh picture was indeed much more difficult. As Yan Yong's accumulated insights were exhausted, he finally experienced the bottleneck of understanding the laws for the first time.

Yan Yong's mind struggled and wandered in the spatial turbulence of the seventh section of the Giant Axe Chaos Stele, trying to take control of the entire spatial turbulence.

Rumble~~~

The bronze gate opened for the second time.

"Come out, come out." Kandri's demonic voice came in as the bronze gate opened. This time, he did not deliberately bypass Yan Yong, and like the other enlightened ones, he woke him from his enlightenment.

"Time's up, and I won't be able to comprehend anything in a short time. I should go back and digest what I've learned." Although he still had 17 chances to comprehend, Yan Yong knew that continuing to comprehend would be a waste of time, and he needed to digest what he had gained from this comprehension.

These past few days, through studying the seventh picture, he has gained some insight into spatial sealing, one of the three great mysteries of space. After digesting and organizing his thoughts, he will probably be able to fully comprehend it after another study.

……

While Yan Yong was comprehending the Chaos Stele, his Heavenly Dragon clone was engaged in a fierce battle with opponents set up by the Giant Axe Founder in the virtual universe's killing field. He had already successfully defeated 600 opponents, and his halberd technique was no longer limited to smashing with the halberd.

"You've made good progress. Your talent is indeed impressive. You've caught up on the weaknesses of your halberd technique in less than half a month. If you continue to practice, you have a chance to defeat 1000 opponents in Chaos City within 30 years. Even if your understanding of the laws can't keep up, you'll still be able to close the gap with the guardians of the 20th floor of the Tongtian Bridge," the giant axe said with satisfaction.

……

"Master, I have some questions about comprehending the Chaos Stele of the Giant Axe. Please enlighten me." Yan Yong, who had not been able to comprehend it, came to the temple of the Giant Axe to ask for guidance.

"Alright." Giant Axe gestured for Yan Yong to tell him about the problem he was facing, and then began to demonstrate in detail the spatial mysteries contained in the seventh picture.

As the founder of the giant axe demonstrated it again and again, Yan Yong fell into a deep epiphany.

Seeing that the other party had entered a state of enlightenment, the giant axe did not stop demonstrating. Instead, it gradually deepened the demonstration so that Yan Yong could understand it more clearly.

"Thank you for your guidance, teacher." After a long while, Yan Yong finally emerged from his state of enlightenment and respectfully bowed to the giant axe.

"Hahaha, if you've gained something, then my efforts haven't been in vain." Giant Axe laughed heartily, indicating that Yan Yong didn't need to stand on ceremony.

"Go back first, study hard, and try to pass through the 20 levels of the Tongtian Bridge and the Primal Tongtian Mountain as soon as possible."

"This disciple takes his leave." Yan Yong bowed once more and then exited the virtual universe.

"I'm almost fully comprehending the essence of spatial sealing." Yan Yong's eyes gleamed with excitement. "Next, I can refer to my innate secret technique, and the essence of 'spatial sealing' will be right before my eyes."

Upon arriving before his original core, Yan Yong began to study the secret technique of 'Controlling Space' engraved on it. Given his current level of understanding of spatial laws, comprehending spatial sealing only required a small hint. With the guidance of the reference book 'Controlling Space', Yan Yong quickly and thoroughly understood 'Spatial Sealing'.

"Spatial Lockdown." Yan Yong used his own understanding of the laws to cast a spatial lockdown for the first time in his residence, but this spatial lockdown was still a bit inferior to his "Control of Space".

"I will continue to study the Chaos Stele of the Giant Axe. As long as I comprehend the last 'Spatial Strangulation', I will be able to break through the 20th level."

In the days that followed, Yan Yong either studied the manifested spatial laws in his own residence or went to the City Lord's Mansion to study the Giant Axe Chaos Stele. After accumulating many questions, he would then be teleported to the temple of the Giant Axe Founder in the virtual universe to ask questions.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly Dragon clone continued to defeat its opponents and improve its halberd skills during this period.

"Look closely, this is 'Spatial Strangulation'." Once again, Yan Yong came to the Giant Axe Temple to ask the Giant Axe about 'Spatial Strangulation'.

Streams of spatial power vibrated within the virtual universe, constantly rotating and twisting the surrounding space. Forces of spatial tearing ripped the once stable space into fragments, gradually forming a spatial turbulence.

Yan Yong carefully comprehended the situation. This time, he plunged into the spatial turbulence and used 'spatial blockade' to fight against it.

"An interesting method." The giant axe also adjusted the intensity of the spatial strangulation in coordination with Yan Yong's 'Spatial Lockdown', allowing the opponent to properly feel the tearing force of space.

As time went on, the spatial strangulation force unleashed by the giant axe grew stronger and stronger, and Yan Yong's spatial blockade was gradually broken.

Just as the space was about to be torn apart again, Yan Yong jumped out of the spatial turbulence.

"Thank you, teacher," Yan Yong said respectfully, bowing to the giant axe.

"Hahaha, go ahead, go ahead." Giant Axe laughed heartily. Over the past 20 years, he had watched Yan Yong grow step by step, achieving in less than 30 years what other powerful figures could not achieve in hundreds of thousands of years.

He was very satisfied with this disciple's talent, but unfortunately he was only a nominal disciple. He couldn't take away his elder brother's disciple.

……

Returning to his original core, Yan Yong used the inspiration he had gained to comprehend the secret technique of "Controlling Space". Recalling the spatial strangulation power used by the founder of the giant axe, Yan Yong gradually imitated that feeling by using "Spatial Control" and at the same time used "Spatial Lockdown" to resist it.

"So this is 'Spatial Strangulation'." Having emerged from his reverie, Yan Yong had gained a clear understanding of the profound meaning of 'Spatial Strangulation' and was gradually figuring out some of the tricks.

"After another study of the Giant Axe Chaos Stele, I should be almost there." Through this study, Yan Yong has already comprehended one of the branches of the profound meaning of "Spatial Strangulation," namely "Spatial Tear."

Without hesitation, Yan Yong arrived at the meditation chamber of the Giant Axe Chaos Stele.

"You've finally come again. Are you confident you can comprehend the profound mysteries of the three spaces this time?" Kandri smiled as he looked at Yan Yong.

The other party has 19 opportunities to comprehend, and has used 13 of them in the last 20 years, leaving 6 opportunities. The last time they comprehended was 3 years ago.

"This time we should make good progress." Yan Yong replied with a smile. Having come to meditate so many times, Yan Yong and Kandri were quite familiar with each other.

"Let's wait two more days. The people inside still have two more days to comprehend it," Kandri said, pointing to the bronze gate.

"Yes, Lord Candri."

Yan Yong sat down cross-legged, and two days passed quickly in meditation.

Boom~~

The bronze door of the meditation chamber of the Giant Axe Chaos Stele slowly opened, and the demonic voice of Kanderi awakened the meditator inside.

"You can go in now. I hope you can comprehend the three great mysteries this time and pass through the 20th floor," Kandri smiled.

"Thank you for your kind words." Yan Yong smiled and nodded, then walked into the meditation chamber.

"This is my 12th time studying this picture, and I hope that this time I can fully understand its three major mysteries." Sitting in front of the 7th picture, he immersed his mind in it.

That strange "axe intent" was once again comprehended from the Chaos Stele, awakening Yan Yong's "battle intent," though it could no longer be called "battle intent."

Over the years, he has been studying the Chaos Stele of the Giant Axe and practicing halberd techniques in the virtual universe. His "battle intent" has gradually transformed into a "halberd shadow" through repeated collisions and refinements.

Yan Yong's "The Artistic Conception of the Halberd" is nearing completion.

Yan Yong controlled his mind to move within the spatial turbulence surrounding the 27 giant axes, using spatial blockade to fight back.

As time passed, the spatial turbulence around the 27 towering giant axes gradually stabilized under Yan Yong's spatial blockade, eventually forming a stable spatial zone.

Then Yan Yong simulated the "Spatial Strangulation" technique used by the founder of the giant axe to tear apart the spatial band.

"Bang."

With a soft sound, the entire spatial band began to rotate and tear at each other as Yan Yong directed it.

*Splash.*

The space zone was torn into pieces like cloth.

"Send it to me."

At this moment, the space that had been torn to pieces began to rotate. The more effort Yan Yong put into it, the faster it rotated, eventually forming a violent vortex.

The vortex grew more and more violent, and gradually flames disappeared within it.

……

"Come out, come out." The bronze gate opened, and Kandri's enchanting voice awakened Yan Yong.

"Hahaha." Yan Yong laughed excitedly, "Although I haven't fully comprehended the laws of space, the three great mysteries are no longer a secret to me. I even have a clue about how to merge the three mysteries into one."
