Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 525

The three-dimensional structure of the void unfolded, constantly merging with the devouring power within, stretching the gluttonous beast's gaping maw of destruction into an enormous size.

However, the next moment, the Taotie's massive maw, which had been destroying the demon race, opened completely, even inverting to envelop its body, and a deep abyss suddenly appeared on the spot.

The creation, like a black hole, has a large, shallow white slit on the other side.

"what is this?"

Greza's clone frowned, a sense of crisis creeping into his heart; the other party seemed capable of threatening him at this moment.

Greza's clone wasn't afraid of this; in fact, it was somewhat eager to test the waters further.

However, sensing the approaching destructive power in the distance, he chose to leave.

"Illusory form... Earthly form... Celestial form..."

Greza's clone vanished into nothingness, but the surrounding void, under the influence of the abyss, also became fragmented, severely affecting his illusory power.

Fortunately, his escape into the void was merely an attempt to increase his compatibility with the void and then construct a spatial corridor to continuously teleport himself outwards.

"Don't run!"

The other two golden-armored Destruction Demons hurriedly tried to stop him, but in just a few thoughts, Greiza's clone had already arrived in the space closest to him.

Without the slightest pause, Greiza's clone merged directly into the maze space.

The next moment, two destructive forces struck, shattering the entire space instantly, but the figures within had already vanished.

"Damn it, he still got away!"

The two golden-armored Destruction Demons looked at the space fragments ahead with gritted teeth.

Then, a golden-armored Destroyer arrived and frowned upon seeing the scene before him.

"Where is that cultivator?" asked the golden-armored Destruction Demon who had arrived.

He got away!

Upon hearing this, the golden-armored Destruction Demon who had rushed over dug open his chest with his hands, and two World Beast Warriors exuding powerful auras emerged from it.

"Is that cultivator so powerful? Not only could the four of you golden-armored Destruction Demons not stop him, but one of you was even killed by him."

"It was a Beast Warrior," said one of the Beast Warriors.

"Very powerful, and the most troublesome Void Dao!"

The two golden-armored demons who had fought against Greiza's clone revealed their information, filled with apprehension.

"It seems we need to inform the others to be careful of the enemy. If we get entangled, we must immediately notify all the warriors," said the Beast Warrior.

However, since Greiza's clones had already fled, the Beast Warriors and the Destruction Demons were somewhat helpless. In this environment, it would be difficult to catch up with a peak expert who was proficient in the Void Dao. They then turned their attention to the still expanding Source Cave.

"Let's get Taotie back to consciousness first!"

The golden-armored demon destroyed the path of the demon race, and then everyone joined forces to imprison the abyss, injecting their power into the white crevice and awakening the Taotie consciousness within.

"That cultivator!"

Having regained control of its body, Taotie gradually reverted to its former form as the Destroyer of the Demon Clan, its expression extremely ugly.

This was the first time since his birth that he had suffered such humiliation and powerlessness.

"When we meet again, I must... I must..."

Taotie wanted to say he would kill the other party, but realized that even if they met again, it would probably still be difficult to kill the other party.

Either break through to the King realm, or lay a peerless trap to completely defeat the opponent.

"Become King!"

Taotie clenched his fists. As one of the first golden-armored destruction demons to be born, he also wanted to become the first king.

"I need to go back!"

After bidding farewell to the other Destruction Demons, Taotie arrived at the golden-level Destruction Nest that had given birth to him. Looking at the enormous cocoon in front of him, he fell silent for a moment.

……

After escaping the pursuit of the Destruction Demons, Greiza's clone also arrived at a relatively safe labyrinth space.

Although he was not afraid of a few more Chaos Overlords, it would be almost impossible to continue killing the Destruction Demons in that environment, so he left directly.

Then, Greiza's clone took out a superior-grade primordial crystal, felt the dimensional primordial essence flowing within it, and slowly placed it on the yellow core on his chest.

The next moment, the power of origin flowed into the soul without any hindrance, comprehensively enhancing the soul's origin.

"It improved by about one point!"

After refining this wisp of dimensional origin, Greiza's clone sensed the increase in power; it wasn't much, but it wasn't small either.

After all, it is a soul at the level of a Chaos Overlord. Even a one percent increase is a significant boost, not to mention that he advanced at a genetic level of 100,000 times.

If it were any other Chaos Ruler, the effect would probably be even better.

"From this perspective, killing over a hundred Golden Armor-level Destruction Demons can double the power of one's Soul Essence."

I just don't know if there are that many golden-armored Destruction Demons in the entire Destruction Dimension.

Of course, not that many are actually needed, since there are still a large number of Black Armor and Silver Armor Destruction Demons, which are far more numerous.

"Keep practicing!"

Greiza's clone folded the void in his hand, reflecting the surrounding destructive dimensional structure, and directly immersed himself in the cultivation of the Void Dao.

He wasn't in a hurry to create secret techniques. As long as he comprehended the fundamental Dao, creating secret techniques would be very simple.

After evolving from a dimensional labyrinth into a destructive void dimension, this place is no longer just the ultimate void landscape; it also contains the secrets of the nine meridians of the void path.

At this very moment, this dimension of destruction is undergoing its initial evolution, and many changes in the void paths are faintly visible, somewhat like the initial universe.

The Nine Channels of the Void Path: Heaven, Earth, Void, Origin, Violence, Line, Emptiness, Multiverse, and Annihilation.

These nine meridians encompass the structure, application, and creation of the void, as well as, most importantly, the harmony between life and the void.

Teleportation, structure, multidimensional space... the evolution of the Void Path lies entirely in the changes of the Destruction Dimension.

Since this clone has such a high degree of compatibility with the Dao of Void, there is naturally no intention to let it go. Perhaps by comprehending enough of the Origin Dao, it can go even higher in the future.

Having comprehended so many fundamental principles, Lu Yunhe vaguely sensed that these fundamental principles were not isolated from each other, but rather interconnected, and that there must be something connecting them.

If he could do it, Lu Yunhe truly wanted to comprehend all the fundamental principles and achieve a miracle that would be unprecedented and unparalleled.

Now, Greiza's clone is wielding the power of formlessness and merging with the void. This allows him to not only better comprehend the Dao of the Void, but also to attempt to imprint the essence of the void onto his own body.

The core of learning from Heaven and Earth is not borrowing from Heaven and Earth, but creating Heaven and Earth ourselves, which is to replace the original Dao with the self-created void.

With the help of his formlessness and his own void attributes, Greiza's clone almost merged with the void, and his understanding of the Nine Meridians of the Void Dao was gradually improving.

Although immersed in life, he was lucky enough to encounter the Nest of Destruction, and Greiza's clone did not hesitate to take action, gaining some dimensional essence.

Even if it's just a tiny bit of improvement, it's still a significant boost to his talent over countless reincarnations.

Unfortunately, it seems that because of their previous actions, the Destruction Demons have become smarter and almost never give him a chance to be alone.

The golden-armored Destroyer Demons ran away as soon as they saw him, not giving him a chance to fight.

It's not that we can't catch up, but if we buy a little time, the other Destruction Demons will arrive.

Moreover, a whole bunch of them came at once, seemingly trying to keep him here, but in the end, it was he who ran away.

During this period, Greiza's clone fought against the Destruction Demons and World Beast Warriors quite a few times, or perhaps he was trying to set a trap to kill him, while the former wanted to hone his skills this time.

Among them, the one who fought the Greza clone the most was the Taotie Destruction Demon Clan. Every time, the Taotie Demon Clan was at the forefront, and its strength even increased with each battle with the Greza clone.

In this struggle between the two sides, the most dangerous moment was when a being with the talent of imprisonment was born from the Destruction Demon Clan, which seriously interfered with his path of etherealization.

That time, Greiza's clone used all his skills and fought his way through seven or eight golden-armored Destruction Demons.

After that great battle, it took him hundreds of thousands of epochs to recover, but he also gained another high-grade Origin Crystal.

After that, Greiza's clone unexpectedly chose to join forces with other Chaos Overlords, and also laid a deadly trap, wanting to kill Taotie and other Destruction Demons.

In that great battle, both sides deployed more than twenty Chaos Overlord-level combatants. Three members of the Golden Armor Destruction Demon Clan were killed, and the cultivators also suffered losses.

After a great battle, the conflict between cultivators and the Destroyer Clan not only did not diminish, but intensified.

His mind was consumed by the carnage of the Destroyer Clan, and all he could think about was killing, killing, killing.

While the cultivators had not lost their minds, they were equally engrossed in this unbridled battle.

Unlike on the Origin Continent, where bullying the Eternal True God was pointless and one couldn't defeat the God King, there was also a great deal of restraint towards fellow Chaos Rulers.

Before we knew it, three trillion eras had passed.

The Destruction Dimension is slowly growing, and the number of Destruction Demons is also increasing, putting considerable pressure on the cultivators.

Many cultivators are keeping a close eye on the Destruction Nest, hoping to fundamentally reduce the number of Destruction Demons, but they have yet to find a Gold-level Nest.

As for Greiza's clone, he cultivated and comprehended the Origin Dao, killed the Destruction Demons and devoured the Origin Crystals, and fought against many Golden Armor Destruction Demons... He was living a very fulfilling life, and all aspects were steadily improving.

During this time, Lu Yunhe's main body finally ascended to the Origin Continent and even entered the Temple of Gods, obtaining a residency status on the Origin Continent.

……

Within the void of the Destruction Dimension, after trillions of epochs of exploration, the Destruction Demons finally discovered the second gold-level lair.

Chapter 519 The New King of Destruction

"The second gold-level nest!"

Upon learning this news, the Taotie, who was cultivating in the first gold-level nest, was so excited that it even overwhelmed its will to destroy.

The Destruction Demons possessed a strong bloodlust from the start, but even the Golden Armor Destruction Demons could control this desire to some extent; they simply couldn't suppress it indefinitely.

Furthermore, this intense bloodlust makes it difficult for the Destruction Demons to cultivate normally; they can only rely on their talent and innate strength.

Only the Gold-Armored Destruction Demons are somewhat better, which may be why they have the potential to become kings.

One of the reasons why Taotie stayed here was to find a flaw in the Void Dao.

Unlike black-level and white-level nests, gold-level nests have incredibly intricate network structures, almost perfect spatial structures, and the profound mysteries of the void they contain even surpass those of the Chaos Overlord level.

The Taotie stayed here to observe the spatial structure, to incorporate some of its insights into its devouring process, and at the same time to search for flaws in the Void Dao.

However, the Demon Clan's comprehension of the Origin Path was too poor, and the results were not good. Therefore, Taotie gradually placed its hopes on another target.
