Swallowing the Stars: The Wind Sword Master.

Chapter 589 The Secret of the End

Just as Ning Ze was feeling a little more at ease, he suddenly felt a bone-chilling cold flow from his heart to his entire body.

His will suddenly shifted, and he became aware of the terrifying changes outside the source world.

The entire Hunyuan seemed to be divided into two poles: one side was endless darkness, and the other side was endless blood light.

And that dividing line is the world of Chaoyang.

Amidst the endless crimson light, a colossal creature, resembling both a snake and a dragon, coiled, its terrifying power seemingly freezing the entire Hunyuan realm in place.

Ning Ze felt a sense of fear. Even before the attack landed, he already knew he couldn't withstand it.

Under that terrifying power, it seemed as if his thoughts and will had come to a standstill.

The seemingly slow gathering of power was actually his life sounding an alarm, with all his attention focused on it. In reality, the opponent's secret technique was executed extremely quickly, so quickly that his will could just keep up.

Lord Yang was completely stunned. He could never unleash such power! This was the difference between a naturally born primordial life form and the essence of the Origin World.

Swish!

In just a moment, the endless crimson light transformed into a bright red blood dragon and rushed over.

The two collided without a sound, an explosion, or a flash of light; everything that existed was annihilated. Even the smallest trace of primordial energy vanished completely under this terrifying attack.

Meanwhile, the Origin World remained unharmed, enveloped in a hazy glow, completely unaffected by the terrifying power.

"What...what's wrong with you...?"

"Lord Yang asked in a trembling voice. He could clearly sense that Ning Ze's will and aura had weakened considerably."

Just as that terrifying attack was about to arrive, he himself was already in despair.

They didn't even have any hope for Ning Ze.

Under such an attack, everything would be annihilated, filled with despair, and it could even annihilate the entire Origin World.

Even if his energy was vast, it was still far inferior to the power of the rules, and even Ning Ze's help had no effect.

However, just at that moment of despair, a hazy glow appeared from Ning Ze's body. The seemingly gentle light, full of rich life force, poured into the source world in an instant. It was because of this that Lord Yang hurriedly controlled himself to defend.

During the collaboration, he vaguely sensed a higher-dimensional power empowering the source world, so that no matter how terrifying the external attacks were, they could not cause any harm.

Ning Ze did not answer him, but stared intently out of the world, and whispered as if talking to himself, "Four times."

"What?" Lord Yang asked hurriedly.

Ning Ze turned his head, his face expressionless, and said softly, "I can withstand four more of this kind of attack."

"Four times?" Lord Yang's heart seemed to clench. "And then what?"

Ning Ze gave the other person a deep look. "After four times, all the ultimate rules I've comprehended will be broken. Then it will be your turn!"

Lord Yang fell completely silent. After a moment, a fierce glint appeared in his eyes. "If—and I mean if—you were to end the remaining rules, and at the same time end half of my rules, would that be enough to kill him?"

Ning Ze suddenly laughed. It was rare for the other party to be so decisive. He first nodded, then shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Lord Yang asked anxiously.

Ning Ze spoke softly: "If I were to end all the ultimate rules I have comprehended and more than half of your rules, the power should be enough to make the other party feel that their life is in danger."

"If he wants to resist, he must also end his own rules, otherwise he will not be able to resist at all."

Lord Yang was overjoyed upon hearing this, and exclaimed, "Then hurry up!"

If they wait any longer, they will have no way to survive.

Even a primordial world cannot compare to a primordial lord in terms of the number of rules. After all, primordial worlds have their own limitations; although the number of rules is large, it is still finite.

Those born with primordial chaos are different. Like the strong, they possess as many rules as they comprehend and devour the supreme rules.

They can't outlast us in a war of attrition, so the only option is to go for a burst of damage!

Ning Ze's expression darkened upon hearing this. "I want to too, but I can't control it."

"If we could launch a surprise attack, he would never expect us to be so ruthless. However, I have already pushed the two rules to their limits. Any more and I will not be able to control that power."

Lord Yang was stunned for a moment. No way!

When did he come to believe that Ning Ze was highly reliable and capable of handling anything?

It was already quite an achievement for Ning Ze to withstand that terrifying attack; it would be normal if he couldn't control it if the power were increased to another level.

"So you have your limits too..."

"So you have a power you can't unleash..."

Lord Yang was somewhat lost in thought. During the time the two had interacted, he was in a weaker position because Ning Ze could solve any problem, and even the Lord of Hunyuan had withstood it.

He always believed that Ning Ze was exceptionally talented and had no limits.

Now that he has seen it, he still holds a sliver of hope.

"Really, it's not okay?"

Ning Ze shook his head, then nodded slightly apologetically.

"What do you mean?" Yang had a bad feeling.

Ning Ze didn't say anything, but his will was connected with Luo Feng.

"If I perish, then you should perish as well. The Lord of Chaos outside is extremely powerful. With your current strength, it will be very difficult for you to escape from him!"

Even he relied on the blessing of the Origin World to fight against the Flood Dragon Demon, which is equivalent to the Origin World providing power for him to control.

If they were to meet in the Chaos Source, he wouldn't even be able to withstand a single move from his opponent, let alone be locked in a stalemate like they are now.

"Has it really come to this?!"

Luo Feng felt a chill run down his spine as he watched Ning Ze's will fade. He was filled with resentment. Back then, when they encountered danger, he was at least able to fight alongside Ning Ze. Even though his methods were not as magical as Ning Ze's, his own strength was not far behind.

However, after Ning Ze became the lord, the gap in strength between the two widened completely. He no longer even had the right to watch. The terrifying power erupted, leaving nothing in the Chaos Source, including his will.

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"

"I can't believe they were able to do that!"

"You want to fight me? I'd like to see how many times you can fight me!"

The Flood Dragon Demon was extremely angry, but also very distressed, as he had consumed a complete ultimate rule!

Even if he is the Lord of Hunyuan, the rules within his body have their limits. And the ultimate rules are all trump cards, methods of risking one's life! He usually only uses them when killing the Lord of Hunyuan or when facing life and death.

Now, he's using this method to attack a source world.

Not all rules are suitable for the end.

The accumulation of an origin world is also very profound.

That kind of consumption is probably greater than what he gained from devouring three or five worlds.

There may be many Hunyuan Worlds born in Hunyuan, but in this region, only one will be able to be considered his after a long period of time!

This took a considerable amount of time, even for Lord Hunyuan, to obtain a Source World.

Moreover, how could that newly born source world compare to the rising sun world?

If the Jiao Demon were to actually breach the Chaoyang World, it would likely deplete most of his resources!

Even the Jiao Demon hesitated at this moment.

Would he have suffered such a loss in a battle with Lord Hunyuan? Even if he was outmatched, he could have retreated. Neither side would have gone to such lengths unless absolutely necessary.

What is this now?

Fight to the death against the Lord of Hunyuan?

And he's a long-established lord like the Lord of Chaoyang!

If he were of sound mind, he would never do something so stupid.

but.

When he saw Ning Ze in the Source World, boundless anger surged within him.

At the same time, there was also a deep-seated fear.

A world-class Chaos Origin expert was able to fight him to this extent. He had respect for Ning Ze as an opponent, but also an unspeakable fear.

If Ning Ze is not brought down today, he may not even have a chance to escape when they meet again in the future.

"Then let's give it our all!"

The Flood Dragon roared. In the blink of an eye, he made a decision: no matter how much it cost him, he would keep Ning Ze here!

Ning Ze was also staring at him at this moment, his eyes showing neither sorrow nor joy, only indifference.

It was as if there was no sense of urgency in the face of crisis, only coldness and desolation.

It wasn't just the Jiao Demon who wanted to kill him; if he were strong enough, he would definitely cut the Jiao Demon down with his sword!

The shimmering light weaves through the air, radiating the vitality accumulated over countless years.

Ning Ze's ultimate rules were almost completely exhausted after just two or three clashes. Now, he's starting to fight using the rules of the Chaoyang World!

At this moment, the Jiao Demon went completely mad, unleashing wave after wave of ultimate rules to launch a frenzied attack on the Origin World.

Once, twice, three times...

In a second, the entire Origin World shrank by more than one size, and the Flood Dragon Demon also became weak.

Ning Ze, however, was pondering a question at that moment.

This was something he had thought of when the rules came to an end.

Why does the end of the rules bring such a powerful amplification? It's as if it transcends a new dimension, unleashing unimaginable power?

The Divine Power Burning Secret Technique, as one's realm advances, reaching the God Emperor stage, where the origin of divine power no longer holds any secrets, allowing one to unleash the strongest effects of divine power at will.

As the amount of divine power used increases, the power also increases without limit.

Divine power was no longer a secret to them!

So what are the rules?

Haven't they applied the rules to their fullest extent yet?

Otherwise, why would the rules possess such power at their end?

Ning Ze pondered this line of thought, and soon, his eyes lit up and he had an answer in his mind.

Rules, born from the primordial chaos, are miracles born from the endless vastness, evolving from infinite chaos into a unique kind of 'order', rules.

As the rules become more complete and larger, they are further divided into rules, ultimate rules, and even supreme rules.

The reason why there is such a big difference between normal use and the end is not because there is a problem with the rules themselves. The secret comes from Hunyuan!

Rules are born from chaos, whether they are a microcosm of a rule or a broken rule, whether strange things are born from rules or living beings are born from rules.

All evolutions require an incredibly long time!

Taking the Origin Continent as an example, the emergence of life there was already considered relatively late. The subsequent appearance and maturation of life was only a very short period; the truly long period was the very beginning!

This is not like the spiritual cultivation of living beings, where there is a path to follow, a law to abide by, and wisdom to understand. That kind of gestation occurs in a state of ignorance and chaos, and the gestation period is unimaginably long.

Just like the battle between Ning Ze and the Jiao Demon, with such aftershocks and power, the impact is extremely far-reaching. It is very likely that strange objects, living beings, and even the Origin World will be born. And these are just fragments of rules now. It is unknown how long it will take for the corresponding rules to be born.

The end is different.

The process of gestation is incredibly slow, but the final ascension happens in a mere instant!

In an instant, the rules were broken, as if the rules were being rewritten!

It comes from the primordial chaos and returns to oblivion, carrying the deepest mysteries of the primordial chaos!

That's why they were able to unleash such terrifying power at the end of the rules.

That wasn't their power at all; it was just a coincidence that gave birth to the primordial mystery, which they then released.

This is why Ning Ze was able to take control so quickly. In reality, as long as one can break the rules and control and channel that power, one has succeeded.

Ning Ze's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and even though his aura was gradually weakening, he became even more excited.

"I saw it!"

"Divine Law, just like divine law, only this power is more complete and more subtle!"

"Unfortunately, there was no time left for me to ponder this."

Ning Ze felt a pang of sadness as he silently watched the terrifying attack descend, calmly facing his impending doom.

He was no longer able to fight.

The rules of the source world have been mostly lost, or even on the verge of collapse; all the usable rules have been destroyed.

Even if the remaining rules are destroyed, they will not unleash a powerful force.

It's not that the profound mystery of Hunyuan is not revealed, but rather that such mystery is not used for combat, and is even more silent.

He could sense this when he wanted to bring a rule to an end.

Swish!

Enveloped in endless crimson light, Ning Ze quietly met the gaze of the Flood Dragon Demon. In that moment, he saw the heartache that followed the madness, as well as a sense of relief. His eyes even held a hint of cathartic release.

However, in the next instant, the other person's eyes became fixed, as if they were stunned.

Ning Ze was puzzled and followed the other person's gaze.

Outside the riddled membrane of the Origin World stood an incomparably domineering figure. His divine power was as scorching as the sun, and beneath his golden armor was an incredibly broad and robust body. Seeing him, one couldn't help but feel a sense of security.

"Chaoyang! You're finally back!" Lord Yang was slightly excited.

Ning Ze understood immediately. The moment he saw the other person, he knew their identity: the original owner of the Chaoyang World had returned!

His ultimate rules have all come to an end, which is equivalent to cutting off most of himself. After such a great battle, using the power after the end, he is extremely exhausted.

His realm had fallen and his rules had been exhausted, leaving him in a very low state. He was the last to notice Lord Chaoyang.

"I'm sorry, I ran into some trouble! It took a while to cook."

The imposing figure turned slightly to the side and looked at Ning Ze.
