Swallowing the Stars: The Wind Sword Master.

Chapter 92 Kirishima Exposed

At the summit of Tianshan Mountain.

Ning Ze sat there quietly, the surrounding gale swirling around him as if it would never stop, like a different kind of submission.

Suddenly, Ning Ze frowned and stopped absorbing the energy from the wooden crystal.

Although he had four Wood Crystals, he used them very sparingly. The energy inside was not inexhaustible, so he only absorbed a little bit, stopping short of taking a bite. Just as his body was about to instinctively absorb the energy, the feeling disappeared, and a subconscious temptation filled his heart.

He felt a little uncomfortable, and he kept tempting his body's instinctive will, but it suddenly disappeared when he tasted a little sweetness.

Subconsciously, Ning Ze's mood became depressed, and even irritable, resentful, and angry!

That was the dormant will within his body, the negative emotions generated by his repeated provocations, once... ten times... a hundred times... ten thousand times... even the combined emotions of his body had begun to affect his thoughts and will.

Ning Ze endured the various discomforts, trying his best to get used to them, constantly observing and communicating with his body, controlling his body's subconscious, and understanding and summarizing the various changes.

The feeling was like facing countless bewildered children, and Ning Ze carefully approached, communicated with, taught, and comforted them...

A week has passed.

On a new day, a golden crescent moon appears on the distant horizon, forming an arc.

Before the light even shone down, Ning Ze felt a warmth. Sure enough, the next second, the sunlight shone on him, and a warm feeling arose in his heart, which made him feel very happy.

In a daze, Ning Ze's vision kept rising, and he entered a peculiar state. A new sense of touch quietly appeared, as if intricate and complex information was entangled in this world, containing strange laws, which was very mysterious.

At this moment, he felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation. The sky was filled with magnificent cosmic energy, like a colorful waterfall hanging in the Milky Way, with endless energy pouring into his body.

The ground was a beautiful blue planet. With his eyes closed, he experienced a strange sensation as various colors and shapes appeared, as if a new world had been created.

He could even feel the pulse of the earth. Unlike the pulse of life itself, the earth's pulse was more like a piano piece, its various melodies blending together to interpret the two words: 'Life!'

He felt as if he were one with the universe, and even faintly sensed the turmoil of the golden sun on the horizon. Compared to Earth, it was far wilder, and even carried a sense of destruction.

In this state, the world became clearer, and he even vaguely sensed a magnificent membrane above the heavens. He wanted to touch it, but he couldn't.

It's like a child reaching out to touch the ceiling—they can see it, but they can't touch it.

On the other side of the membrane lies an even more magnificent world!

Vast, boundless, infinitely powerful, and utterly mysterious... it seems to encompass all things.

Under perception.

There seemed to be some kind of strange object 15000 meters underground, and suddenly, a sense of life arose.

Ning Ze became extremely agitated, driven by a physical urge that was a hundred times, a thousand times, and ten thousand times stronger than his previous encounter with Mu Ya Jing!

Ning Ze suddenly opened his eyes, his figure shooting out, and the surface of the lake in the distance suddenly exploded! It was like an intercontinental ballistic missile being thrown into the lake.

He plunged downwards into the darkness, but then he saw purple stars appearing in his vision!

Ning Ze frowned deeply. 'It's not possible to influence it with mental power?'

The countless purple starlight was what his body craved. After sensing that there was no danger, he came over directly, but he never expected that the countless purple starlight would fly away.

"No! We have to be quick!"

Now, it wasn't just him; the entire lake exploded. The purple starlight was a deadly temptation for life, and countless monsters went berserk, all crashing into the ground. Whether they could burrow or not, the monsters had completely gone mad.

Ning Ze was secretly annoyed. "I should have killed them all!" Of course, this was just a thought. The lake was connected to the ocean, and the monsters were endless. He couldn't possibly wash the lake every day; otherwise, it would become a pool of blood.

"I need to hurry!"

While absorbing the light spots, Ning Ze killed monsters. The absorption method was simple: if he bumped into one, it would be swallowed by the body. He could only move quickly and devour some large purple star clusters.

The same applies to monsters.

However, the purple star points were moving extremely fast, and he didn't have time to stop them. Even his soul attack could only kill a few monsters.

Inside a mysterious spaceship 15000 meters underground.

Babata breathed a sigh of relief. "Phew! I knew this guy would find me. He was too fast. He noticed it the moment I threw it. Luckily, I was prepared. Hmph! I threw it across the entire lake. You're just a planetary native!"

"I'll supply ten monsters, at least three of which will grow to the level of Beast King. By then, your human technology will surely discover them. Luo Feng has already dealt with the enemy, so he'll definitely come to explore. Kid, you can't stop him this time, can you?"

Babata looked smug, but there was a hint of frustration in its eyes. Being forced to this point by a planetary native, if it weren't for the lack of weapons, it would have fired a shot at Ning Ze without hesitation.

It had tried to lure Ning Ze in and kill him before, but the kid wouldn't act until he saw a benefit, completely ignoring it and just blindly cultivating on his own, trying to wink at a blind man.

Babata cursed the Earthlings as insane again. Especially Ningze, it had no idea what this native was doing. Ever since it noticed this person, he hadn't practiced any techniques, just sitting there pretending to be comprehending something, but what could a planetary-level being comprehend?

The main focus is on training the body and enhancing genetic energy at the planetary and constant star levels, as well as practicing swordsmanship and movement techniques to refine combat skills!

In the mud at the bottom of the sea.

Ning Ze absorbed two clusters of purple starlight, and his body underwent continuous transformation. It was as if he had experienced a baptism, and even his soul became extremely joyful.

"broken!"

Coming to his senses, Ning Ze suddenly sensed three powerful auras, whose life force fluctuations were even stronger than his own.

"Are the treasures we absorbed different?"

Ning Ze frowned deeply. He felt that his aptitude had improved a bit and his body had been strengthened, but the increase in strength and genetic energy was not terrifying. Meanwhile, the three monsters were just lords before, not even king-level monsters, yet they had improved so much!

"Go to hell!"

Ning Ze was furious. This powerful aura was close to that of the Beast King. The life fluctuation detectors in the base city were always on to prevent attacks from the Beast King, so they would definitely mobilize the satellites in the sky to lock onto this place as soon as possible.

Kirishima will no longer be a secret!

Inside the underground spaceship at a depth of 15000 meters.

Babata was quite smug. "A native is a native. You think you can make me guard you? If I hadn't fallen to such a state, with my spaceship damaged, a planetary level is nothing..."

At this point, Babata was stunned. He was staring intently at Ning Ze's virtual projection when he witnessed a scene that made him question his existence: a seemingly ordinary level three planetary attacker easily killed three level five planetary monsters with a single sword strike.

"What the hell? This kid's that strong?"

"An energy sword composed solely of wind-attribute elemental energy?"

"Even if these monsters lack combat experience and power, their strength is still roughly the same. What makes him so special? His power is decent, but it's only fourteen times stronger. He shouldn't be able to win so easily!"

Babata was very confused. It couldn't figure out what went wrong. From its perspective, Ning Ze had condensed a wind-attribute energy sword and stabbed it, killing a silver-striped electric eel directly.

Above Kirishima.

Ning Ze sighed, and as the communicator rang, he clicked to answer.

In front of him, a virtual screen materialized, displaying a tall man in black.

"The curator."

"A three-headed beast king has appeared at your location?" Hong asked with a serious expression.

Ning Ze nodded helplessly and replied directly, "Yes, these three monsters suddenly advanced, and I've already killed them. A treasure with purple light appeared here, and the three electric eels absorbed the treasure and broke through to the fifth level of the planetary level. I made my move as soon as I discovered this. They hadn't finished their metamorphosis yet, nor had they adapted to the surge in power, so they were quite easy to deal with."

"A treasure? Purple starlight?" Hong frowned, pondering for a while but still unsure what kind of treasure it was. "You were on Mist Island? Could it be that you discovered something when Luo Feng broke through?"

Ning Ze nodded and admitted it directly, "We were lucky. We found five Wood Seed Crystals, gave one to Luo Feng, and he broke through."

"I'm coming right now! You were on Kirishima before, right?" Hong Yi's eyes lit up when he heard Mu Ya Jing's voice, eager to try.

At his level, very few treasures on Earth would catch his eye, but treasures in the universe are an exception, among which the most precious are treasures like the Wood Crystal, which can also be effective against planetary-level powerhouses.

Who wouldn't want to improve their strength?

Ning Ze replied with a helpless look in his eyes, "Yes."

At this point, there was nothing he could do but admit it. Humans had been monitoring the monsters, and they could hide their aura as long as they didn't unleash the life force of a King-level monster. But now, three monsters close to the Beast King level had suddenly appeared. Earth had a total of two Beast Kings...

It would be strange if the base city didn't react to the emergence of an extra Beast King.

"Okay. I'll be there in three minutes. You can look for it carefully." Hong hung up the phone immediately after saying that.

"Ding! Ding!"

The call had just ended when another call came in.

Ning Ze clicked to connect, and the figure of a bald, burly man materialized in front of him.

"Ning boy, what treasure have you found? A three-headed beast king has appeared!" Thor's eyes shone brighter than the light reflected from his head, a light of excitement.

Ning Ze looked at the decorations behind Thor and said helplessly, "You're all inside the fighter jet. If you want to know what treasures are inside, come and find them!"

"There really is treasure? You little brat, I even treated you to drinks last time! You kept such a good thing from me!" Thor's expression was somewhat displeased, his eyes seeming to say, "You're not being fair!"

Ning Ze rolled his eyes helplessly. He didn't like drinking, and this guy had to show off after winning the fight, so he forced him to stay.

Of course, he didn't use any domains in this contest; they fought using the same methods, with the maximum difference being that he exerted fourteen times his strength and Thor exerted ten times. Thor was at the seventh level of the Planetary Realm, while he was only at the third level, resulting in a difference of at least twelve times in strength between them.

"Muya Crystal. There's also a treasure with purple starlight, but I don't know what it is. It doesn't seem to be very useful."

"Wooden Crystal!" Thor's eyes widened like light bulbs. "You actually found this treasure! No wonder you improved so quickly, it turns out you were absorbing Wood Crystals! Lucky guy!"

"What does this have to do with the past?" Ning Ze asked, looking annoyed. "I only got it a week ago, gave one away, and absorbed one. I thought I could keep it to myself for a while, but it turns out, I just got a little treasure and it's already been exposed."

There was a thoughtful look in his eyes. If it were just treasures, that would be fine, but he had sensed a desire to go and take a look, which was not normal at all, because he had already made up his mind that he would not go to check unless absolutely necessary.

That feeling seemed to come from the subconscious, like being guided. Thinking back to the repeated appearances of the wooden crystals, and the final burst of purple light, it all seemed like a deliberate attempt to make those monsters the Beast Kings. It all felt rather strange.

He felt that this pattern was controlling something, but he wasn't quite sure.

"Once all the powerful figures from Earth arrive, I'll observe them more closely."

After ending the communication with Thor, the communicator rang again as expected, this time from Jia Yi, the top military officer!

"Inspector Ning, it's been a long time. You're even more impressive than before, managing to kill three powerful monsters in an instant." Jia Yi said with a smile, his voice cheerful, completely devoid of the heaviness and seriousness he usually displayed when facing others.

Ning Ze raised an eyelid and said, "It's really strange that Councilor Jia can actually say flattering things."

"Hahaha." Councilor Jia laughed heartily, "I'm telling the truth."

"Your face is practically screaming, 'What just happened?'" Ning Ze's expression was slightly impatient, and he wasn't in a good mood.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony. Inspector Ning, could you please tell me what just happened? Why did three such powerful monsters suddenly appear?" Jia Yi asked very seriously.

Ning Ze said calmly, "You can guess what it is. You all like to ask all sorts of questions while sitting in a fighter jet. You'll see when you get here." He then added, "You can prepare more thoroughly."

"Oh?" Jia Yi's eyes lit up. This was clearly a message telling him there was treasure! Bring people over! "Thank you."

"I don't want to hear your thanks." Ning Ze was slightly annoyed. His treasure trove had been exposed, how could he be in a good mood?

Before long, powerful figures from all sides arrived one after another.

Hong's Primordial Fighter was the fastest, followed by Thor, then Luo Feng, and then a group of councilors. This time, there were even more councilors than when Ning Ze took over as inspector; practically all the councilors from Earth had come.

"Ning Ze, what exactly happened here?" A burly, blond man stood in mid-air, arms crossed, looking ahead with an air of dominance, his question carrying an unparalleled air of authority, as if issuing a command from an emperor.

Ning Ze's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't even look over there. This Third Speaker, Mohanderson, was truly used to being arrogant. He was standing with Hong and Thor, and the other party still spoke to him in such a tone.

Looking around at the other members of parliament, he replied indifferently, "Wait!"
