Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

For an invincible being, Hunyuan Sand can be considered a byproduct of refining Hunyuan Essence; during the refining process, there will be some of it, more or less.

Of course, in reality, Hunyuan essence should be a byproduct of Hunyuan sand, but the former is too difficult to use.

If there were a large amount of Hunyuan sand, Lu Yunhe's Ruyi Cudgel could be improved even further.

If he had a massive amount of Hunyuan Sand, he might be able to try to forge a true Hunyuan Divine Weapon.

With great strength, bricks fly; with abundant quantity, one can eat one's fill. However, he was also troubled by the lack of materials and could only try cautiously. This was only because of the Ultraman clone's situation; otherwise, he wouldn't even have the right to try.

Having killed an invincible being and the forces of a peerless demon, Lu Yunhe became rich overnight, reaching the average level of an invincible being.

However, what he regretted most was that Zhanba Island was fine. Lu Yunhe had taken all the resources and especially the secret techniques, all of which were complete, including the secret techniques of the Zhanba Island Master himself.

The demons of Zhanba Island don't just plunder blood essence and cultivation resources when they go out to loot; they also naturally include secret techniques and other inheritances.

Chanhachi Island may not be as large, but it has all the essentials.

The villains are simply not accepted by others, but they themselves are also a complete force.

The gains from Zhanba Island greatly enriched Lu Yunhe's collection, especially the ultimate secret technique of Zhanba Island Master himself, which was extremely valuable.

However, the Primordial Ancestor of the Polar Night mainly possessed supreme and peak treasures, and he himself did not have the habit of carrying a large number of secret techniques with him.

They only tried to decipher and study it by examining the traces on the divine body and the memories in some fragments of the soul.

After all, the ancient ancestral kingdom still exists, and there is an invincible being guarding it.

Even he couldn't possibly sneak up and kill an invincible being, especially in their own lair.

Even the slightest disturbance would deter other invincible beings from simply watching him kill another one, even if they were wary of his strength.

The pressure from the supreme rules of the Realm Heart Continent is too weak. Even if a Lord-level being fights unrestrained, it cannot be hidden from others, let alone an invincible being.

Otherwise, if we could also kill the Eternal Night Ancestor along the way, that would be a huge gain, allowing us to completely absorb the accumulation of countless eras of the Ancestor's homeland.

After all, with these two invincible figures, and shameless ones at that, their accumulated resources were only slightly inferior to those of the Xiafeng Ancient Kingdom.

However, the ancient ancestral kingdom must be the lair of an invincible power, and a wealthy one at that; its strength is probably considerable.

Even Lu Yunhe might not be able to finish it.

As the saying goes, it may be difficult for the strong to accomplish something, but it is much easier for them to prevent others from doing so.

"Let's see if there's a chance in the future!"

Lu Yunhe thought to himself, and after sorting out his gains, he went into seclusion in the Black Prison.

His various clones are constantly improving, which means he needs to go into seclusion more and more often, otherwise he won't even be able to unify his own strength.

Sometimes, progressing too quickly can also be a problem.

While in the Black Prison, Lu Yunhe was cultivating in seclusion, researching various secret treasures, and also conducting all sorts of inhumane experiments on the demons on Zhanba Island.

As a cultivator, one can do more, and the test subjects in one's hands will only suffer more.

Soul fusion, fission, altering life structure, integrating rules, treasures, and so on...

Moreover, being in a dark prison, they had absolutely no scruples.

After some research, Lu Yunhe was also able to create Blood Spirit Essence, further advancing his understanding of the soul.

"Jie Jie Jie..."

Lu Yunhe smiled at the demons imprisoned in the Chaos City, then trembled with fear, completely powerless to resist.

……

Lu Yunhe's true form was in seclusion in the Black Prison, while the Lord of Stars and others were busy building the Chaos Ancient Kingdom.

Although the entire country is still very new, having only been established recently, it is still referred to by outsiders as an ancient country.

Many practitioners also traveled from all over the country, hoping to try their luck.

A newly established ancient kingdom is quite attractive to cultivators, especially since its ruler is the Chaos City Lord, who is known as the number one person on the Realm Heart Continent.

Those lower-level cosmic gods can be dealt with by the Lord of Stars and others.

Those who have reached the level of a Cosmic God need to go through a process in front of Lu Yunhe before they can join.

Unfortunately, although several powerful beings at the second level of the Cosmic God realm arrived, none at the Ultimate Realm came.

Clearly, even ancient kingdoms are not very tempting for those at the Ultimate Realm, unless Lu Yunhe is willing to bestow a supreme treasure, which is unlikely.

Even if someone were willing to share a supreme treasure, it would definitely be with their own sworn brothers or even disciples they had nurtured over many years; they would never give it to an outsider.

For those at the second level of the Cosmic God realm, the allure of the ultimate treasures in Lu Yunhe's possession remains very strong.

In other ancient kingdoms, even risking one's life might not guarantee a reward. After all, ancient kingdoms had their own core groups, and no matter how well they performed, they would definitely prioritize their own people.

However, as a newly established force, the Chaos Ancient Kingdom does not yet have a core circle, so it obviously has more opportunities.

Seeing this, the pressure on Lone Fire Island Master and the others increased. The Star Lords were alright, after all, they still had some strength, but Lone Fire Island Master and Fire King were just ordinary among the Cosmic Gods, so their movements became even faster.

The Chaos Ancient Kingdom began to develop rapidly, but it caused great suffering to the other forces in the Black Prison and Dark Sea.

They all moved to these dangerous overseas lands to escape the oppression of the ancient kingdom.

But no one expected that such a barren land could give birth to an invincible being.

Although the rulers who were able to establish influence overseas were all skilled, their strength was still insufficient; otherwise, they would not have been driven out of the main continent.

Where else can we run?

"In this vast Origin World, is there not even a place for us to hide?"

"I cannot accept it. Even if the Chaos Ancient Kingdom really wants to annex us, I will still splatter their blood."

Clearly, these cosmic gods could no longer bear being constantly relocated and were unwilling to accept being swallowed up.

"Yes, yes, that's unacceptable!"

"If he destroys our kingdom, at worst we will also become demons and wreak havoc on the Chaos Ancient Kingdom."

A group of cosmic gods were filled with righteous indignation. Clearly, the emergence of some demons in the Realm Heart Continent was also due to the excessive oppression of the ancient kingdom.

The vast territories of the six ancient kingdoms did not fall from the sky; every inch of their land was stained with the blood of cultivators.

The appearance of the Chaos City Lord made the already chaotic Black Prison Yin Sea even more turbulent.

Of course, the nearby Space Kingdom, which did not choose to flee, was also incorporated into the country immediately.

There was nothing we could do; we were just too close. It was like being right under the nose of an invincible being, with absolutely no power to resist.

However, the expansion of the Chaos Ancient Kingdom still encountered great resistance.

In particular, it touched upon the combined forces of some smaller countries, such as the "Star Alliance," etc...

Faced with the pressure from the Chaos Ancient Kingdom, they chose to resist directly, leading to a direct conflict.

A battle line was directly drawn at sea, with a large number of cultivators joining in to earn contribution points, and even wars at the level of cosmic gods frequently broke out.

Faced with the war of the Chaos Ancient Kingdom, the major forces in the Black Prison and the Dark Sea are under immense pressure.

However, after discovering that neither the Lord of Chaos City nor even the Lord of the Stars intended to make a move, these second- and third-rate forces also chose to resolutely resist.

Thus, the Black Prison and the Dark Sea transitioned from chaos to a state of confrontation centered on war.

Chapter 689 Foreign Wars

Chaos City, inside a secret room!

The massive amount of primordial energy was almost solidifying, tempering the divine body of the Lord of Stars.

At the same time, a large number of golden runes continued to flow into the soul of the Lord of the Stars.

"Humph!"

Even with the spirit of the Lord of the Stars, he couldn't help but feel a pang of pain.

"Hold on, circulate the secret technique, and carefully sense how the power of chaos transforms your body."

Lu Yunhe sat in a high position, controlling the power of chaos to baptize the divine body of the Lord of Stars.

"Yes!"

The Lord of the Stars struggled to comprehend the profound secrets that penetrated his soul, feeling both pain and profound awe.

He had always thought that the Lord of Chaos City had achieved such strength only through the supreme treasure and the Hunyuan Divine Weapon. However, the divine body secret technique he created at will completely exceeded his expectations.

The two are on completely different levels.

Even without the Supreme Treasure, the Lord of Chaos City could probably crush him with one hand. If he were to use the Supreme Treasure... perhaps he wouldn't even be qualified.

A simplified divine body technique was enough to show the Lord of Stars the gap between himself and the Lord of Chaos City.

And now that he has actually helped him master it, the Lord of the Stars feels even more awe and reverence.

That kind of control over the primordial power and the rules of heaven and earth is something he can never achieve.

At this moment, the last lingering thoughts in the heart of the Lord of Stars vanished along with the baptism of the Primal Chaos Power.

"Concentrate!"

Lu Yunhe gave a soft shout, then clenched his fingers in the void ahead. An invisible force, like threading a needle, controlled the power of chaos to imprint power on the body and soul of the Lord of Stars.

At the same time, a set of exquisite, somewhat heavy-looking armor appeared on the Lord of the Stars, which was the pinnacle treasure of the Lord of Zhanba Island.

Swish!

With a burst of primordial power, the surrounding air currents instantly merged into the armor, fitting tightly into the divine body of the Lord of Stars.

"It's done!"

Lu Yunhe withdrew his power, and the pervasive primordial energy vanished in an instant.

As his top lieutenant on the Realm Heart Continent, Lu Yunhe also bestowed the supreme treasure of Zhanba Island Lord upon the Lord of Stars.

While studying the divine body of the island lord of Zhanba, he created a divine body secret technique that was compatible with this treasure, and used the power of primordial chaos to help him master it.

In this way, the Lord of the Stars can also unleash the power of this ultimate treasure through his physical body.

Two top-tier secret treasures, plus a divine body technique—although the compatibility of the treasures isn't that high, this configuration still makes the Lord of Stars comparable to a Venerable Lord, and even among them, he's not weak.
