Swallowing the Stars: The Wind Sword Master.

Chapter 581 Taking Control of the Rising Sun

"Since that's your plan, then you can continue your meditation here."

The ancient town seemed somewhat relieved as they left.

Within the Holy Sun, only Ningze and the Holy Mother remained.

Ning Ze nodded slightly to the Holy Mother, then flashed to the center of the Holy Sun, sat down cross-legged in mid-air, and began to comprehend the endless rules.

When he was on the Origin Continent, he could only comprehend whatever rules were available, since the rules were obscure, and only the rules that were being integrated into the Origin Continent within the holy light were relatively clear.

Therefore, he started by comprehending an auxiliary rule, and his subsequent cultivation was also without any method. After discovering the secret of the smelting rule, his understanding of the rule became even more casual. It was only after becoming the controller that he was able to quickly master the rule.

Now we have arrived in a new source world. Although the rules of the two source worlds are very similar, there are also many differences. When comprehending them, one must not be too impatient. A good foundation is needed to facilitate the extension of the rules later.

He certainly wouldn't wait until he had grasped more than half of the rules before trying to control the Origin World. He hadn't even grasped more than half of the rules of the Origin Continent yet. If he wanted to reach that level, who knows how long it would take?

He only needs to grasp a portion of it and clarify the main points before he can begin negotiating with the will of the source world.

Ning Ze ignored the Holy Mother, and the Holy Mother did not speak either. She just stood there quietly, looking into the Origin World, her gaze seemingly fixed on something else, with an expression of compassion for all living beings.

……

In a vast, unknown land, four towering figures stood amidst the chaos.

Among them were an elderly man with white hair, a disheveled middle-aged man, a powerful young man, and a sacred teenager.

The four age groups represent four different states of mind, yet they share a nearly identical level of understanding.

"Why are you making such a fuss every day? What did you call us here for this time?" Yuan was drinking from his gourd, half-drunk and half-awake, and being disturbed was quite unpleasant.

"Cough cough cough..."

The cough sounded like that of an old man on his deathbed. The white-haired old man was hunched over, leaning on a cane with a dragon design. "Yu Qing, why don't you say something?"

Yu Qing refers to the young man whose face is like that of a born saint. His face is slightly immature, but he has an indescribable majesty. His eyes, which seem to see through the world, seem to be changing from clear to murky.

"Anomalies have arisen once again from the Chaos Origin. In the area I am monitoring, I have spotted those naturally born Chaos Origin beings several times. I even investigated the Chaos Origin of many Origin Worlds and found a peculiar powerful being among them. They seem to be pinpointing our location!"

"I think this matter should not be underestimated; we must be very careful!"

"Hmm? The Chaos Origin is in turmoil. Could there be any traces of the Chaos Origin Ancestors?" Yuan couldn't remain calm upon hearing this. Being in a weak position means being on guard at all times, and they were the weaker party.

Yu Qing shook her head, her cold face filled with murderous intent. "There shouldn't be any, but we absolutely cannot be careless. Even without the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos taking action, those born Chaos beings are not weaklings."

"In that case, I have also made some discoveries." The powerful young man spoke slowly, and all three looked at him.

"When I was stationed in the chaotic border region, I discovered that many naturally born chaotic beings had gone into a state of dormancy, seemingly hiding themselves."

"I initially thought there was some kind of conspiracy, but now that I think about it, they must have already started mobilizing."

"And once too much power is mobilized, it is also a sign of an attack. The strong people of a single region will definitely not be able to stop them, and many source worlds will inevitably fall."

"We should have been on guard against this earlier!"

Yuan Shen nodded solemnly.

Based on various dynamics, there is indeed a considerable probability that it will be attacked.

This border battlefield is unlike the former extraterritorial battlefields, where the three forbidden lands of the universe and sea allowed soldiers to fight freely.

The defensive line must not be breached!

Each of the Hunyuan Lords is an extremely valuable fighting force, and none of them can be lost!

The inexplicable disappearance of a large number of naturally occurring chaotic beings on the border is no accident. They are likely hiding in some dark corner, waiting to attack the territory of living beings.

This has happened many times throughout the countless years, with all sorts of tactics employed.

Every time they face the enemy's schemes and tricks, they need to be on high alert, otherwise they will suffer enormous losses.

"I have a feeling that this place is unusual, and the invaders are definitely not ordinary experts." Yu Qing recalled his various encounters when he went deep into the area, and he always had a feeling that a storm was about to break. At his level, he would not have such a sign in his mind unless it was a major event.

"Then let's use the safest method," Yuan said softly.

The white-haired old man narrowed his hazy eyes slightly, and when he spoke, his voice was extremely hoarse, "You mean you want to use that person?"

Yuan stood up straight, no longer showing any trace of dishevelment or decadence. Even though he was wearing tattered clothes, he appeared incredibly majestic and imposing.

He gazed into the depths of Hunyuan, seemingly lost in thought, before saying in a deep voice, "I'm going to find Jia Ye! Hunyuan cannot be lost at this moment! Even if it means being exposed, I will do it!"

"You mean that kid from the Origin Continent?"

"Is he really worth your high regard?"

Yu Qing's gaze sharpened slightly, revealing a hint of interest.

Although he had been stationed at the border, he was well-informed and had heard about the events that were happening within the region. However, rumors are ultimately false and exaggerated, and he wanted to see them for himself.

Yuan did not respond directly, but nodded silently.

He initially thought highly of Ning Ze, but no matter how much he thought highly of him, he was still just a decent genius.

When Ning Ze reached the God King level, he began to refine the rules and made remarkable progress. At that time, he already valued it highly. Being able to glimpse the mysteries of Hunyuan at the God King level and determined to comprehend it, with his talent, he was able to forge his own path in the future and had a very high probability of becoming the Lord of Hunyuan!

The problem arose during his trip. Everything on the Origin Continent was already settled in his mind, but Ning Ze suddenly rose to prominence and took away Hao Bai's position as lord.

He was quite happy at first, but after arriving at the Origin Continent, he was powerless to help in the face of the changes in the rules of the Origin World. He didn't say much to Ning Ze, but he couldn't help feeling disappointed. In his heart, the Origin Continent was nearing the end of its lifespan!

Ning Ze did not intend to destroy the Origin World, but he ultimately caused its destruction, all because of his own selfishness.

However, after he left, Ning Ze initiated the evolution a billion times again, and the Origin Continent developed normally, even becoming more and more prosperous. Even while maintaining the evolution speed of a billion times, it continued to grow stronger, showing no signs of decline.

Even though he has not returned to the Origin Continent, he knows clearly that Ning Ze has already forged his own path!

Looking back, Ning Ze seemed to have been filled with absolute confidence from beginning to end. He was not an evil person, but he showed no mercy when it came to the source world.

This undoubtedly demonstrates that Ning Ze is capable of guiding a source world to sublimate!

No one in Hunyuan today can do this!

He had actually been defending the direction of the Origin Continent in order to protect Ningze and allow it to continue to grow.

If Ning Ze succeeds, a transcendent being will emerge among all living beings.

This is why the Lord of Chaoyang left such an order in the Chaoyang World.

The two... no, it should be said that Yuan and several Hunyuan lords made a bet, the only difference being that Ning Ze went to the Chaoyang World, not other worlds. Without Ning Ze's knowledge, Yuan had already paved the way for him.

……

After cultivating for an unknown period of time, Ning Ze slowly stood up.

As he moved, the Virgin Mary also turned her gaze toward him.

She spoke slowly, her gentle voice capable of soothing all pain, "Have you encountered any difficulties?"

Ning Ze smiled and shook his head, then looked into the world. "Lord Yang, come out and meet me. I think it's time to try to take control of the Origin World."

"Why!"

A sigh emanated from within the rules.

"Swallowing things whole only gives you a superficial understanding of the rules; you're still far from mastering them!"

Clearly, the will of this supreme rule does not have a high opinion of Ning Ze.

During this time, Ning Ze comprehended his rules, which was equivalent to looking at his body. Wherever he looked, he could also sense it and analyze the speed of Ning Ze's comprehension.

He was convinced that his deduction was absolutely correct.

Ning Ze chuckled softly.

"Isn't that enough? But I feel like it is!"

The aged voice sighed again.

"Why!"

"Since you think that's enough, then give it a try."

"Then let's give it a try." Ning Ze said softly, his mind suddenly rising, and a mysterious aura spread from his body.

This aura seemed to be spirit, divine power, or primordial chaos; it was extremely complex and mysterious.

The Holy Mother couldn't help but glance at him. This legendary genius hadn't asked him for assistance; he was merely observing the rules here. To what extent could he comprehend them now?

To say he'd grasped more than half of it would be absolutely impossible. In such a short time, even at Ning Ze's original cultivation speed, he could only condense a hundred or so rules, far from even a single ultimate rule. Could someone at this level truly control the Origin World?

suddenly!

The rules surrounding Ning Ze began to change in a strange way. Golden rays shot out from his body and towards the endless rules around him. They quickly entered the supreme rules and were considered to have made an initial connection with them.

Immediately afterwards, numerous golden threads rippled like ocean waves, or seemed to be composing music.

Wow!

Ning Ze's gaze sharpened, and he reached out and grasped at the void in front of him. Suddenly, the sound of flowing water appeared in front of him, and a gray-white figure was pulled out.

He wore a gray-white robe, had a full head of golden hair, and a ruddy complexion, yet he always gave off an old feeling. Even his body was outlined, and his cloudy eyes stared at Ning Ze in disbelief.

"You, you dragged me out of here?"

"Otherwise what?" Ning Ze chuckled lightly. "Senior didn't want to see me before, so I had no choice but to use some methods!"

Yang was seething with anger, but had nothing to say. Finally, he could only manage to stammer, "You did very well! You've got some skills!"

He had lived for so long, and even the former Lord of Chaoyang had never been so disrespectful to him.

"However! Mastering the rules isn't just about willpower. Without a sufficient foundation of rules, even if I lay the rules right in front of you, you won't be able to..."

At this point, Lord Yang's eyes widened.

His clothes had changed! From a simple gray-white robe, he had transformed into a magnificent long gown adorned with patterns of birdsong, fragrant flowers, mountains, rivers, and streams, creating a fresh and beautiful effect.

It wasn't just his clothes that changed, but also his divine body. His originally long golden hair became even more neat and slender, and his face, after slight adjustments, made him look even younger and more vibrant.

"To exist for a long time does not mean to be old; to be influenced by all living beings does not necessarily mean to change for the sake of all living beings," Ning Ze said with a light laugh.

Lord Yang fell silent this time, standing there without saying a word. He felt that this kid was rather impolite, yet he actually dared to attack him! It seemed that he had a chance to take control of a part of the Origin World!

Moreover, Lord Chaoyang had spoken with him before leaving, and he had sincerely forgiven Ning Ze for his somewhat rash actions.

Beside her, the expression of the Virgin Mary, who had been like a mascot, also underwent a subtle change, as if she had been touched and enlightened.

"Now, I'm going to begin!"

After Ning Ze finished speaking, he ignored the two of them and his spiritual will enveloped the entire Origin World. Every strand of his will was moving in accordance with the rules, just like four giant dragons with long fangs and claws soaring in this world of rules!

Yes, this Origin World is different from the Origin Continent, but the main rules are also divided into four: spacetime, life, matter, and the path of cultivation.

This moment.

All the powerful figures in the Chaoyang World sensed something and looked up to see a figure appearing in the sky.

Dressed in a snow-white robe, ethereal and full of spiritual energy, a pair of wise eyes looked down at the earth, seemingly gazing at the endless creatures.

This sight is something most adults have never seen before, but those ancient beings are very familiar with it.

The ancient town gazed upwards, somewhat lost in thought, as ancient memories surfaced in its mind: the scene when Lord Chaoyang controlled the Origin World, and the fallen Lord Hunyuan.

After that, he also prayed that such a scene would never be seen again in the world of Rising Sun, and that the Lord of Rising Sun would live forever.

However, this scenario has now been repeated!

Looking at Ning Ze's statue amidst the endless golden light, he was momentarily at a loss. He had a premonition that the Chaoyang World was about to undergo a major change!

"And what about now?" Ning Ze asked Lord Yang with a light smile.

Lord Yang nodded expressionlessly. "You're very capable. I'll cooperate with you!"

Ning Ze raised an eyebrow. They were actually cooperating?

The Virgin Mary beside her looked somewhat worried.

To be honest, she was also part of the supreme rules, but due to certain special reasons, she became an independent individual, and Lord Yang was her father.

However, she ultimately possesses the essence of the Chaoyang Origin World within her, and once Ning Ze takes control of the Origin World, her situation will be uncertain.
