Swallowing the Stars: Cultivate to Become Stronger.

Thunder Mountain, the first holy land on the origin continent.

Majestic! Vast! Unshakeable!

When Luo Shen used his Eye of Life and Death to cast his gaze upon Thunder Mountain, he immediately saw many of Thunder Mountain's mysteries that he had not seen before. He glimpsed both Thunder Mountain's strengths and its weaknesses.

"Thunder Mountain alone is terrifying, but if it's an unclaimed formation, with my current strength, combined with the Eye of Life and Death and the terrifying moves created by the Heaven-Covering Palm, it's enough to break through it." But Luo Shen didn't make a move. Instead, he looked at the towering figure lying quietly in a hidden space within Thunder Mountain.

"But the most terrifying thing about Thunder Mountain is the Thunder Ancestor who lives in seclusion there!"

The observational abilities of a high-level Chaos Origin life form helped Luo Shen break through the barrier of Thunder Mountain, allowing him to see the majestic true form of the Thunder Ancestor and discern some of its secrets. He exclaimed inwardly, "The physical body of this Thunder Ancestor is terrifying, far more so than that of the Flame Wind Ancestor. If he were outside, without the suppression of the power of the Origin Continent, with his physical strength, he could easily crush the treasures of a God Emperor in the early stages."

Although Luo Shen could see the opponent's weaknesses through the Eye of Life and Death, the Thunder Ancestor's body was too strong. Even if the opponent sat there motionless, allowing Luo Shen to attack, he could not break through the opponent's defense under the protection of the power of the Origin Continent.

Of course, the reverse is also true.

"With the Thunder Ancestor guarding Thunder Mountain, I have absolutely no chance of conquering it."

This is both a restriction and a protection imposed by the supreme rules.

On the Origin Continent, even those stronger than God-Kings cannot defeat each other. Even if they have the upper hand, they cannot overcome each other. Because of this, everyone needs to compromise with each other. Just like when Luo Shen killed Di Yuan, the Ancestor of Flame Wind did not come to see Luo Shen.

Luo Shen also acted as if the many sins committed by other royal gods had not happened.

This is a tacit understanding between them.

However, this tacit understanding only lasted for a few hundred epochs before it was broken by Lord Blue and Lord White Demon.

On the continent of origin, Luo Shen, the progenitor of the Eastern Extreme Domain, Di Qing, and the progenitors of the two countries were all powerless against each other. Even if they had the upper hand, they could not harm each other.

No one can do anything about the other, and everyone needs to compromise!

Luo Shen killed Di Yuan, but the Yanfeng Ancestor didn't even come to see Luo Shen. He just pretended that nothing had happened and tolerated it.

The royal god-king had committed many sins in the past, and Luo Shen tolerated it.

Both sides had a tacit understanding.

However, the tacit understanding between the two sides was broken by Lord Blue and Lord White Demon!

"Tolerate this any longer? Impossible!"

Luo Shen could not allow such scum to live, but he had to be polite first and then forceful. He would inform the Thunder Ancestor about this matter, and if the other party did not take action, he would find a way to kill these two scum!

Thunder Mountain, in the secluded space where the Thunder Ancestor secluded himself.

The Thunder Ancestor was still observing that golden finger bone, studying it carefully, trying to find an opportunity for a breakthrough.

Suddenly, a vast and resounding celestial sound rang in his ears—

"The progenitor of thunder!"

Upon hearing this voice, the Thunder Ancestor was startled, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately stood up, looking around as if searching for the source of the voice, his face full of disbelief.

You must know, this is Thunder Mountain!

Thunder Mountain was a divine emperor-level cave treasure that he personally crafted. The space he was in was also created by him, and he set up an array. Even the Flame Wind Ancestor, whose strength was closest to his on the entire Origin Continent, needed to use a communication treasure to contact him.

How could someone be able to cross Thunder Mountain and bypass his formation to speak with him?

"Who is it!"

The Thunder Ancestor's voice was deep and muffled, his gaze still scanning the surroundings warily.

"I am the ruler of the Chinese nation!"

Luo Shen's voice rang out again, like thunder exploding in his ears, confirming that the Thunder Ancestor was not hallucinating.

"The Emperor of China!"

Upon hearing this name, a flash of lightning appeared in the eyes of the Thunder Ancestor. He had heard of this name as soon as he returned to the Origin Continent. Even Emperor Yuan of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom had perished at the hands of this person.

Previously, he hadn't paid much attention to the ruler of China.

After all, the other party had only recently broken through to the level of God King, while he and Yan Feng had already been God Emperors for countless reincarnations. A junior who had just become a God Emperor in the early stages could be easily crushed in front of them if they were outside the Origin Continent!

But at this moment, Luo Shen's performance made him no longer dare to underestimate him.

After all, the ability to transmit a message to his ear through numerous obstacles such as cave treasures, space, and formations was beyond terrifying. However, he did not believe that Luo Shen had done it based on his own cultivation level, but rather on some heaven-defying treasure.

of course.

Even if it's through a secret treasure, the fact that someone can obtain such a treasure on their own means that their potential is not weak.

"I initially thought that the ruler of China, as a newly ascended God-King, lacked sufficient methods, but now it seems I underestimated him." The Thunder Ancestor slowly spoke, "I wonder what urgent matter the ruler of China has brought to see me this time?"

Luo Shen didn't mince words and went straight to the point: "Ancestor of Thunder, are you aware that the White Demon Lord and the Blue Flower Lord have plundered the lives of countless beings within the Thunder Ancient Kingdom for over a hundred epochs, with the total number of lives plundered exceeding hundreds of billions!"

"Not long ago, they even extended their evil clutches into the territory of my Chinese Empire!"

Luo Shen did not finish his sentence.

With his experience as the Thunder Ancestor, he naturally understood that Luo Shen's visit was not simply to report something; he was clearly there to interrogate him. If Luo Shen hadn't been wary of him, the Thunder Ancestor, he would probably have already started plotting against the two monarchs.

"Billions!"

Upon hearing this number, even the Thunder Ancestor was surprised.

It should be noted that even with the density of life forms in the Thunder Ancient Kingdom, this number is still an incredibly large number of life forms.

At the same time, he was also furious with the White Demon Lord and the Blue Demon Lord. He had clearly warned them not to provoke the Chinese Emperor again, but they ignored his words.

But now that the ruler of China has come knocking, if we don't give him a satisfactory result, this matter may not end well.

The Thunder Ancestor's thoughts swirled in his mind.

Soon, Luo Shen's voice rang out again: "Ancestor of Thunder, after I killed Di Yuan, I did not go on a killing spree. Instead, I gave those cultivators who had committed great sins a chance. As long as they do not repeat the same mistakes, I will not pursue the past."

"The main point is to respect you and the Yanfeng Ancestor."

After all, everyone knows that the top-ranked sinners on the entire Origin Continent have intricate connections with the God-Kings and even monarchs of the two royal families. For example, the Black Vulture Ancestor was manipulated behind the scenes by several monarchs of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom.

"But now, the way White Demon and Lando are doing this shows they're completely disregarding me!"

"My Chinese Empire has only been established for a few hundred years, and less than a thousand years have passed since the death of Emperor Yuan. Yet they dare to extend their evil claws to my Chinese Empire. I'm afraid the number of beings they have secretly captured is far greater than the figures I've investigated."

"They are the rulers of the Thunder Kingdom. I respect the ancestor, and the decision on how to deal with them is up to the ancestor."

Luo Shen didn't mention anything about his opinion on how to punish the two monarchs. He only expressed his dissatisfaction to the Thunder Ancestor and asked him to arrange how to deal with it. But both Luo Shen and the Thunder Ancestor understood what was going on.

If the Thunder Ancestor values ​​Luo Shen's title as the ruler of China, he will punish him severely, at least executing the ringleader.

However, if the Thunder Ancestor underestimates Luo Shen and thinks he is merely a newly promoted God-King, treating the two monarchs lightly, then Luo Shen would not mind picking up the butcher's knife again and using the blood of those two monarchs to appease the captured beings!

Of course, Luo Shen wouldn't say such things openly.

This is quite a direct break with the founder of Thunder, which is not very friendly to the nascent Chinese Empire.

More importantly, directly breaking off relations would frighten those two monarchs so much that they wouldn't dare to step out of Thunder Mountain before the final cataclysm of the Origin Continent arrives. Even if Luo Shen had immense abilities, he wouldn't be able to kill them under the protection of Thunder Mountain.

"Don't worry, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you justice."

The Thunder Ancestor said, "I never imagined that the Emperor of China possessed such unfathomable strength. Truly, a hero emerges from among the young. After this matter is settled, I'll invite Yan Feng, and you, the three of us, to get together. How does that sound?"

"good!"

Luo Shen responded.

He immediately closed the Eye of Life and Death, no longer peering into Thunder Mountain.

Luo Shen wasn't sure what the Thunder Ancestor would do next. After all, apart from the battle with Di Qing, he hadn't truly shown his strength. Killing Di Yuan would be no challenge for any god-king.

Therefore, Luo Shen will keep a close eye on the movements of the Thunder Kingdom.

Truth only works when one has sufficient power in one's own hands!

Thunder Mountain, in the secluded space where the Thunder Ancestor meditated.

The Thunder Ancestor remained prone on the ground, his mind replaying every word spoken by the previous ruler of China: "Thunder Mountain, my place of seclusion and slumber, he was able to spy on it and transmit his voice. Just how many secrets does he hold?"

pity.

Since the rise of the Chinese emperor, he has been a being above the God-King level. In addition, he has not had much contact with the monarchs of the Thunder Kingdom, so the Thunder Ancestor does not have much information.

But considering that the ruler of Huaxia had once fought against the eight emperors of Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, perhaps the ancestor of Yanfeng might know more information.

Therefore, the Thunder Ancestor used a communication token to remotely transmit his voice to the Flame Wind Ancestor, asking, "Flame Wind, how much do you know about the Emperor of China?"

"The ruler of China!?"

The Ancestor Yanfeng, who was in seclusion and meditating, opened his eyes with some confusion and transmitted his voice: "Thunder, what happened? I have never dealt with that Chinese ruler, and the information I know is all the publicly available information you know."

"What's wrong? Did he offend you?"

Given Thunder Ancestor's fiery temper, the Emperor of China might have offended him somewhere. Flame Wind Ancestor even planned to give Thunder Ancestor a good talking-to, saying there was no need to bother with such a young fellow.

But the next second, what the Thunder Ancestor said left the Flame Wind Ancestor stunned.

"Just now, the Emperor of China sent a telepathic message directly to my secluded and sleeping place! You should know how strong the defenses of Thunder Mountain are."

Both the Thunder Ancestor and the Flame Wind Ancestor have been wandering through several reincarnation eras, directly clashing with numerous powerful beings from billions of worlds, and also fighting against many low-level Chaos Origin beings. Of course, they attach great importance to the safety of their place of residence.

Outside the cave, hidden treasures and various protective formations are the most sought-after items.

Although they were on the Origin Continent, both the Flame Ancestor and the Thunder Ancestor had taken many protective measures for their secluded and slumbering places.

Thunder Mountain is known as the number one holy land on the Origin Continent, so its security measures are, of course, beyond question.

"He definitely didn't escape his cage!"

The Thunder Ancestor said, "His cultivation path is so clear; it's impossible for him to break free from his constraints in such a short time. Let alone our Origin World, even the geniuses of the myriad worlds beyond the Origin Continent would absolutely not be able to do it!"

"So you mean he obtained the true top-tier treasure from the infinite space!?"

Following the words of the Thunder Ancestor, the Flame Wind Ancestor began to speculate.

For beings of their caliber, top-tier treasures are those that require at least 100,000 reward points to exchange in the Infinite Space Treasury. These kinds of treasures are quite famous even outside the Origin World.

Even many semi-primordial beings like the Thunder Ancestor would spare no expense to acquire such a treasure.

Even so, such treasures are rarely traded outside the Origin Continent.

Why?

It's because these kinds of treasures are so difficult to obtain.

Taking Di Mie as an example, who was the most outstanding in terms of mental will in this era, he had accumulated more than 100,000 reward points due to his outstanding performance in mental will. However, since the Great Dao realm is the foundation, Di Mie used most of his reward points to exchange for the inheritance that was most suitable for him.

The remaining reward points were naturally insufficient to exchange for a treasure worth at least 100,000 reward points.

After all, while the treasure is powerful, one's own path is also very important.

In fact, Luo Shen initially obtained so many reward points because his own realm was low, but his mental will level was high, which allowed him to obtain enough reward points. However, even so, if he had not opened up the Great Dao of Life and Death and reached the third level of the God King realm, he would not have been able to exchange for two treasures worth more than 100,000 reward points in succession.

As for the Thunder Ancestor, his comprehension was too low.

It took him a lot of time to comprehend the complete Dao of Origin, let alone to open up a new Dao. Therefore, the reward points he accumulated were only tens of thousands, which was not enough to exchange for a treasure worth more than 100,000 reward points.

After all, compared to the remains of special life forms and the secret techniques passed down by Yuan, the most special and precious treasures in the infinite space, which are worth at least 100,000 reward points, are the most unique and precious.

"A treasure worth 100,000 reward points? I don't even have one." Ancestor Yanfeng shook his head with a wry smile. He also coveted treasures of this level, but after wandering around for so long, he had not been able to obtain one. As for buying one, he simply did not have the financial means.

"However, since he dared to openly display this method, he should not be afraid of us snatching it, and it is probably one of those secret treasures that cannot be taken away from the Origin Continent."

The founder of Thunder thought the same thing.

After all, this treasure can only be protected from being fought over if it is on the Origin Continent and subject to the supreme rules. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but regretfully say, "Many of these kinds of treasures have been restricted by Senior Yuan and the others, so they can't be taken out of the Origin World."

The Progenitor of Flame Wind laughed, "If these treasures fall into the hands of naturally born chaotic beings, they would pose a much greater threat to us." (End of Chapter)
