Swallowing the Stars: Cultivate to Become Stronger.

Chapter 185 Star Tower

"Are you planning to go to the Star Tower?"

Yan Na leaned back on the sofa, her eyes glued to the novel in her hands. This was one of the hobbies she had developed during her stay on Earth. In addition, she had also developed many other hobbies such as playing games, drinking tea, and playing chess.

Of course, the main purpose is to relax and unwind during leisure time when you're tired from practicing.

Luo Shen was taking stock of his gains over the past period, mainly checking the remaining cultivation resources, since he was counting on these resources to further improve his strength.

"There are only so many King-level experts on the Flame Sacrifice Continent."

Luo Shen shook his head and said, "I have enslaved three powerful figures from the demon race, and they are all at least at the peak of the King-level. During this period, the entire Yanji Continent is in a state of panic, and it is too troublesome to find a lone King-level expert."

After all, that Killing King was a peak-level expert at the King level!

Even a powerful King-level expert had encountered trouble, so the other King-level experts who were weaker than him naturally felt a sense of crisis and left the Flame Sacrifice Continent immediately to go to other high-level battlefields.

In addition, he made too much of a commotion.

Although not everyone knew that the Killing King and his group had gone to the sacrificial tower, it was not unknown to everyone either. As a result, many alien kings who were attracted by the treasures of the sacrificial tower also gathered there.

However, these Kings who came were not ordinary Kings. There were at least three Kings in the team, and one of them was a King at the peak of his power.

It cannot be resolved in a short period of time.

even.

Even the Southern Punishment King, a figure of great renown in the Zerg faction across the entire Seventh Battlefield, has arrived.

Unlike the Black-Shaving King, who was a king from another race, the Southern Punishment King was born into the Zerg and was the leader of the Zerg Alliance. He had an extremely high level of understanding of the laws of time, and his immortal Zerg army was especially powerful, making him an invincible force below the level of a Cosmic Venerable.

Moreover, what the Southern Punishment King is most famous for is not his army of immortal insectoids, but his status as a top master of soul control.

The Zerg are born to be the most powerful soul control masters. After all, controlling an army of Zerg under one's command is no easy task. The fact that the Southern Punishment King was able to carve out a place for himself among a group of soul masters on the extraterrestrial battlefield shows just how strong his soul control skills are.

Unfortunately, King Nancheng only made a brief appearance.

After discovering that the treasure of the sacrificial tower had been stolen, he left again. Otherwise, Luo Shen really wanted to find an opportunity to fight this person who was said to be almost invincible below the Venerable One.

The Star Tower is the highest-level combat area in the Seventh Battlefield, with an extremely high danger level. Even King-level experts are very likely to perish here. Only those at the peak of the King-level or even the limit of the King-level can survive in this area.

"Come, take a look at the information about this Star Tower."

Luo Shen ordered the projection to be completed, and a projection screen immediately appeared out of thin air in the room, displaying a majestic nine-story tower.

This is the Star Tower!

The tower has nine stories and is shaped like a square pyramid, very similar to some towers in China. Around this majestic nine-story tower, there are endless nebula vortices, and the colorful nebula vortices are so mesmerizing that people can't help but be captivated by them.

Standing nine light-years tall, this star tower has been in this space-time since the opening of the extraterrestrial battlefield billions of years ago. For countless years, it has been devouring endless energy from the universe, and the surging energy it has devoured has formed the 'Nine-Spinning Nebula'.

What looks like a nebula is actually an incredibly terrifying energy vortex!

The nebula has nine spirals!

The tearing force of the vortex was incredibly terrifying. Starting from the fourth vortex, even the Immortal King could barely withstand it, while only the Universe Venerable could remain safe within it. If it reached the seventh vortex, even the Universe Venerable would be torn apart and annihilated!

It can definitely be considered one of the most precious treasures in the universe.

The entire Star Tower is black, and its specific material is unknown. Even the battles fought by the four top races for hundreds of millions of years have not left any damage on it.

The tower nurtures the "Suppressing Stars".

The sealed stars are extremely precious!

Each of the sealed stars is comparable in size to Earth and can be considered a treasure of immense value. The sealed stars possess the power to seal; if an enemy is defeated and sealed inside a sealed star, it is equivalent to imprisoning the enemy in an extremely sturdy cage.

However, unless the sealed star comes out of the world on its own initiative, even a being at the level of a universe master cannot forcibly take the sealed star from the Star Tower.

Luo Shen and Yan Na were both looking at the information on the screen.

This was the first time Yan Na had ever heard of the Star Tower, so when she saw the information on it, she stopped reading the novel and sat up straight, staring intently at the text and pictures.

"Is this Star Tower located on the Seventh Battlefield?"

Yan Na's gaze turned serious. She took a deep breath and looked at Luo Shen, saying, "How could a treasure of this caliber appear in a battlefield of this caliber, the Extraterrestrial Battlefield? Even if..."

The words came to an abrupt halt.

Clearly, Yan Na had already recognized the value of this Star Tower.

Luo Shen couldn't help but look Yan Na up and down several times. Speaking of which, Yan Na's identity has always been a mystery. Although she was born in the Blood Luo Continent, her strength and knowledge were not something that could be cultivated in the Blood Luo Continent.

It should be noted that even beings at the level of cosmic venerables are unaware of the true value of this Star Tower.

The Star-Sealing Treasure is merely the least noteworthy among them. Compared to the 'Tower Beads' that can guard the soul, or even the entire Star Tower itself, those are the most powerful treasures in the universe.

How did they recognize Yan Na, who came from a humble background?

If Luo Shen hadn't known the original story and the specific origins of the Star Tower, he would probably only be amazed by its grandeur and yearn for the ability to seal the stars, and would never have been able to recognize its value at a glance like Yan Na.

However, Yan Na was determined to remain silent, and no matter how Luo Shen looked at her, she never spoke again.

Luo Shen had no choice but to give up.

Over the next three months, Luo Shen did not go directly to the Star Tower. Instead, he used the resources at hand to cultivate the Body Amplification Secret Technique to its current limit. Then, he took the newly purchased F9-class spaceship, the Galaxy, to fly through the dark universe to the cosmic shuttle point closest to the Star Tower.

Ripples spread across the void, like raindrops falling on a smooth lake surface.

A spaceship with sharp edges and a shape resembling a long shuttle appeared in the void. Inside the spaceship's control room, Luo Shen and Yan Na were standing in front of the control panel, looking towards the void. At this moment, the surroundings were 100% virtual projection.

In the infinite distance ahead, a towering structure, nine light-years high and much larger than the entire Flame Sacrifice Continent, stands proudly.

It seemed to cover most of the universe.

The towering Star Tower floated quietly in the starry sky. Centered on the tower, the surrounding vortex nebula frantically tore at the void and devoured endless energy. That was the Nine-Spinning Nebula!

Behind the seemingly beautiful facade lies an incredibly terrifying danger!

There's not even a need for much explanation; just one glance is enough to know how terrifying this Star Tower is. You must know that even without its master's control, the Star Tower itself, which absorbs energy to form the 'Nine-Spinning Nebula,' possesses such earth-shattering power. One can only imagine how terrifying its power would be when it is unleashed to its limit!

Unfortunately, Luo Shen had not cultivated the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual and did not sense the Star Tower's intense yearning and summoning.

Otherwise, Luo Shen really does have some ideas.

After all, this is an extremely powerful treasure! It is a God-King level main weapon that the God-King Jin forged with his God-King body before his reincarnation. Even in a place like the Origin Continent where powerful people are as numerous as clouds, it is an extremely precious treasure.

In comparison, the assassination of Wu Yuyi was far inferior.

After all, even the complete version of the Wu-Slaying Wings is just a mechanical treasure used by an Eternal True God-level powerhouse, and it is incomparable to the main weapon used by a God-King powerhouse.

However, Luo Shen didn't think much of it.

Whether it's the complete Wu-killing Wings or the Star Tower, a weapon of the God-King level, they are both unattainable for him now. Even if he obtained them, he wouldn't be able to afford them.

Just like the most powerful secret technique at the level of the Lord of the Universe that he obtained, he still hasn't had the chance to see its true form.

The saying goes, "Looking at a mountain makes one's horse run itself to death."

Luo Shen had clearly seen the Star Tower, which covered most of the universe, from the cosmic shuttle point, but even though he was flying at sub-light speed, it still took him more than ten days to arrive. If he had known that, he would have just used teleportation.

Beneath the Star Tower.

Although the Star Tower is surrounded by an extremely terrifying nine-spiral nebula, whose terrifying tearing force is something even a Cosmic Venerable-level expert cannot withstand, there is no interference from the nebula vortex at the bottom of the Star Tower.

Therefore, the alien kings who went there to try their luck all entered randomly through the entrance.

The Star Tower has nine floors, with nine entrances on the bottom first floor.

The entrance to the tower base.

Luo Shen looked up at the Star Tower in front of him. It was incredibly magnificent. Even with his eyesight, he couldn't see the end of the Star Tower. After all, it was a magnificent creation spanning nine light-years. Even the entire solar system was nothing compared to it.

"Come, come, acknowledge the Lord."

Luo Shen rubbed his hands together excitedly.

Every powerful individual who comes to the Star Tower for the first time tries various methods to see if they can acquire this supreme treasure of the universe. However, none of them have succeeded. Countless epochs have passed, and the Star Tower still stands quietly in the same place, waiting for its master to arrive.

Luo Shen naturally failed to complete the recognition of his master.

After all, he already knew the origin of the Star Tower and that only the Earthlings who had cultivated the Nine Tribulations Secret Scripture could successfully recognize it as their master, so he was just trying it out for fun.

The difficulty of recognizing a master on the Star Tower is extremely high. Even now, he dares not say that he has absolute confidence in recognizing a master.

That was a test of life and death that had lasted for over six thousand years!

Luo Shen's current will is only at the level of an invincible king, which is several levels away from the level of a cosmic overlord. It would be extremely difficult for him to undergo repeated soul transformations like Luo Feng and finally succeed.

Yan Na, who was standing nearby, also tried various methods, but after confirming that she was unable to recognize the owner, she had no choice but to give up.

Ultimately, the two chose one of the entrances to enter.

This Star Tower is like a super-large skyscraper, with each floor containing a "room", also known as a "forbidden space". Each forbidden space is connected to other forbidden spaces by passageways, and each forbidden space is in a state of constant movement.

In other words, even if you remain motionless inside the Star Tower, your coordinates will constantly change over time.

Therefore, within this Star Tower, one may encounter powerful individuals from other forbidden spaces at any time. They might be allies or enemies. In any case, to navigate this Star Tower, one must possess strong survival skills and at least be able to hold out until the next forbidden space passage appears.

Luo Shen himself was extremely capable.

Especially after cultivating the Body Amplification Secret Technique to its current level, he can even fight a powerful King-level expert without having to rely on the Mind's Eye Blade.

Moreover, teleportation is possible even within the forbidden area.

If Luo Shen were to encounter any danger, and if the other party did not know how to use spatial blocking to prevent teleportation, he would be virtually invincible.

"So this is the forbidden area?"

Shortly after entering through the passage, the two found themselves in a forbidden area. The passage entrance had disappeared after they entered, and before them lay a dense forest.

The restricted area itself has a limited scope, just like a room.

There are invisible barriers at the very edges of the world, in the southeast, northwest, and at the very top of the sky, which even a powerful expert at the pinnacle of the King realm cannot break through by burning their immortal divine power.

"Which way do we go now?"

Yan Na glanced around.

The Star Tower is fraught with danger, and each forbidden space may harbor crises. However, under normal circumstances, there is no real danger; the danger is merely a matter of waiting to be unleashed, just like the most ordinary mountains and rivers outside. Only when a star is sealed and born will the forbidden space be guarded by the forbidden guards.

Therefore, the dangers within the Star Tower generally come from the infighting among powerful beings from different races.

but.

Although the Star Tower contains hundreds of thousands of King-level experts, as well as some Marquis-level experts who come to see if they can get some bargains, it is not possible to encounter alien experts in every forbidden area.

The forbidden space that Luo Shen and his companion entered was quickly explored by the two of them, but they did not find any powerful alien beings.

"Looks like our luck isn't so good."

Luo Shen laughed and said, "I thought I would encounter a team of alien races as soon as I came in, but this entire forbidden area is just lush vegetation and nothing else."

Yan Na shrugged and said, "Didn't the information say that this forbidden space is constantly in high-speed motion? If you don't encounter anyone in this forbidden space, you might encounter several alien teams fighting in the next forbidden space."

"Let's find the entrance to the next forbidden space as soon as possible."

hum~

As the two were talking, a strong spatial fluctuation suddenly came from not far away, which instantly attracted their attention.

That's the fluctuation of someone entering this forbidden space through the vortex passage!

"Let's go take a look!"

Luo Shen winked at Yan Na and took the lead, teleporting directly to the coordinates of the vortex passage. Yan Na was a little slower, but only a step behind him.

In the middle of a river in a lush forest, there is a whirlpool, dark and shimmering with starlight.

At this moment, three powerful figures from the demon race faction leaped out from within!
