Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

"Dad, Mom," Luo Feng called out, then knelt down.

"sorry!"

"Xiaofeng, get up quickly, what have you done to apologize for?" Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan quickly helped Luo Feng up.

"My strength is insufficient; I am no match for the Beast of the Realm," Luo Feng said, bowing his head.

"That's not the kind of enemy you should be dealing with."

"World Beasts, aren't they terrifying?"

Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan had no intention of blaming Luo Feng, because it was not his responsibility in the first place.

"Xiaofeng, your mother and I have lived long enough in this life, and we have enjoyed everything we could."

Luo Hongguo said, "Your grandparents' generation experienced the great catastrophe on Earth, and I was born after the catastrophe ended. Order has long been restored, and life is good."

"In the end, your mother and I have the greatest pride of our lives, and that is you."

Luo Hongguo smiled from the bottom of his heart. He had been treated like a lucky father all his life, and had never experienced much hardship.

Before Luo Feng was born, the order was already stable, and people had no worries about food and clothing. After Luo Feng was born, his father became even more powerful because of his son, and eventually he even became an immortal god.

“Your mother and I are very proud. We never imagined that we could travel in the vast universe! We never imagined that we could experience virtual games that feel like real life. Others only live one lifetime, but your mother and I have lived countless lifetimes.”

“That’s right, Xiaofeng, don’t worry about it. You’ve done a perfect job.” Gong Xinlan patted her son’s head and said with satisfaction.

When Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan first heard that the world was about to end, they were somewhat frightened, but they quickly calmed down because they had no regrets in their lives.

Xu Xin, on the other hand, seemed a little disappointed, since Luo Feng often went on adventures outside.

They had originally thought that because of their immortality and infinite lifespan, they would have plenty of time to spend together in the future. However, they never expected that the world would be destroyed soon, and many things they wanted to do would be too late.

If I could die with my loved ones at the moment the world ends, I wouldn't feel so afraid.

"Don't have any burdens. In this last moment of your life, live for yourself without restraint," Luo Honghai said with a smile.

Luo Feng's eyes welled up with tears, but there was no pain, only boundless happiness. In this final moment, his parents were still thinking of him.

“Actually, I’m very selfish,” Luo Feng said. “I don’t have much time to spend with Xu Xin, my son, my parents… I spend most of my time adventuring and fighting in the universe. Although I say I’m doing this for the survival of Earth, in reality, I’ve long been used to a life of adventure and combat.”

"I love to explore and see all the wonders of the universe."

"I love fighting; dancing between life and death gets my blood pumping."

"If all of this were gone, if my life became monotonous, I would just feel as bland as water." Luo Feng shook his head. "Although blandness is a blessing, I've gotten used to fighting, and I've gotten used to this life."

"My life is brilliant because of battles, and mundane without battles."

“But there are still things in this world that transcend my life.” Luo Feng looked at his parents who were hugging him and his wife who was holding his hand. “That is you. You are more important than my life. Without you, this world would be shrouded in darkness.”

"So, in these last moments of my life, let me fight for you one last time."

Luo Feng's expression was incredibly resolute, with a raging fire burning in his eyes, burning himself and others.

"World... Beast!"

Luo Feng gripped the Blood Shadow Blade, forged from the primordial embryo, with both hands. The divine power within his body burned wildly, and his already strange soul, under the dual pressure of his spiritual will, leaped once more, reaching an even higher level.

The advancement in his soul and will instantly propelled Luo Feng's realm to a new level.

"This sword is named 'Guardian'."

Luo Feng's expression was indifferent. The endless despair did not defeat him. On the contrary, because of his family, he was forced to push himself to a higher level. In this desperate situation, he created this top-level eighth-order secret technique. He was just one step away from reaching the ninth order.

Being stared at by Luo Feng at this moment, even the Beast King felt a sudden chill, as if he were being watched by some kind of ferocious beast.

I love your eyes!

The Beast King laughed heartily, his admiration overflowing.

He was in great form and his emotions were spot on. However, the fantasy world is a materialistic world based on one's own mind. Although it also emphasizes breakthroughs in life and death and provides profound insights between life and death, it cannot bridge the gap between heaven and earth.

If it were just a hair's breadth or even a fraction of a second short, a near-death breakthrough would still offer a chance. Unfortunately, the difference between the two is far too great, far beyond what a near-death breakthrough can resolve.

"If you were given another era, you might still have a chance to be my opponent, but now..."

As the Beast King continued to devour the primordial universe's origin, it slowly raised a finger.

"You are not allowed to make a move!" the Beast King commanded his warriors.

"kill!"

Luo Feng ignored the words of the Beast King. At this moment, his mind and will had only one goal: to eliminate the Beast King.

Swish!

The blood-stained arc of light instantly streaked across the chaotic void, traversing billions of kilometers to strike the Beast King at this moment.

"Luo Feng!"

Seeing Luo Feng's sudden outburst, a glimmer of hope rekindled in the hearts of the powerful beings in the universe who had been in despair.

They also found it difficult to distinguish the difference between the power that surpassed that of a true god, since it was all power that could kill them instantly with a single move.

However, what happened next shattered their last glimmer of hope.

when!

A single finger, a sharp, extreme, and powerful strike, slashed down on a single finger.

Luo Feng's all-out burst of power was actually blocked by a single finger from the Beast King, who remained completely unharmed.

"Good strength!"

The Beast King nodded. As Beasts, they had no weaknesses. Their bodies were their most powerful weapons, and attacks of this level were completely ineffective against them.

"He only used one finger!" Juehua Zhenshen and the others trembled slightly, realizing once again the gap between themselves and the Beast King.

Luo Feng's ultimate strike could easily kill them, even if they were wearing the most powerful treasures or hiding in the palace treasures.

But even with such a terrifying attack, the Beast King couldn't break through its defenses, and the latter blocked it with just one finger.

Even the Beast King needed to go all out to deal with the Lord of Ultra, but he only needed to use a finger to face Luo Feng. They couldn't even match Luo Feng's sword energy. The difference between them was something that human strength and spirit could not make up for.

"This is not an enemy we should be facing at all."

The Beast King's defenses remained intact, but the Primordial Island Lord and the True Demon God's men were breached once again, completely losing any will to resist.

The despair of the Island Lord and others had no effect on Luo Feng at this moment.

Despite his failed first strike, Luo Feng's arrogance remained undiminished, his gaze still focused, and he suddenly unleashed another slash.

when!

It was still just a finger, but what stood before Luo Feng now was not a finger, but a completely insurmountable peak.

But he seemed like an ordinary person at the foot of the mountain, wanting to carve through the mountain peak.

The third strike caused a hint of mockery to rise in the hearts of some cosmic lords and even true gods.

"You, Luo Feng, possess strength unparalleled in the universe, second only to the Eternal Lord and the Lord of Ultra, yet you are just like us, powerless before this World Beast."

Disregard, indifference, and even mockery spread through the hearts of these powerful beings in the universe.

As the fifth strike was delivered, a silence fell over the crowd.

As the tenth strike was delivered, a unique emotion welled up in everyone's hearts.

To be called an ultimate strike, one must exert all their strength, maximizing the output of divine power. In addition, the mechanical treasure consumes their resources. Luo Feng, who is only at the second level of the divine power flow, cannot maintain an ultimate strike more than a few times.

After the seventh strike, everyone could clearly feel the decrease in Luo Feng's divine power.

After the tenth strike, his divine power was insufficient, and the final strike he unleashed had completely lost its initial power.

Even so, Luo Feng's sword-wielding speed showed no sign of slowing down, and his almost materialized will continued to soar into the sky.

After twenty strikes, the sharpness and power displayed by Luo Feng's Blood Shadow Blade had decreased to a level that many True Gods could understand.

"Luo Feng!"

The founder of the giant axe gripped the axe tightly in both hands, and smiled to himself: "I never thought that after living for so many eras, my will would be no match for a junior."

"World... Beast!"

The giant axe suddenly roared, its majestic voice instantly resounding throughout the chaotic void: "I will never allow anyone to destroy my human race!"

Failure, humiliation, and concealing one's talents were not problems for the founder of the giant axe. The only thing he could not accept and could not tolerate was someone wanting to wipe out the entire human race.

"what!"

The Giant Axe Founder strode forward, gripping his supreme treasure, and charged towards the Beast King as well.

"The Founder of the Great Axe!"

The Chaos City Lord, standing to the side, followed in the footsteps of the Giant Axe Founder without the slightest hesitation.

With the two pillars of the human race now in action, Peng Gong, Darkness, and the others also laughed heartily and charged forward together.

"We are all the strongest, how can we let the human race take the lead?" the True Demon God laughed.

Humanity's actions have rekindled the spirits of many true gods.

Every true god in the cosmic sea, to some extent, stands at the very top. This is completely different from the true gods on the Origin Continent who know they are weak.

The reason I lost my will to fight before was simply because I found it hard to accept at the time.

But now, inspired by the human race, many true gods have once again regained their dignity as the strongest.

"Even if I die, I want to die at the hands of the enemy."

"We are the strongest!"

……

All the true gods sprang into action and quickly caught up with the giant axe-wielding founders ahead.

"Everyone, charge together and support Luo Feng!" the many True Gods roared.

"Giant Axe, Chaos..."

Seeing this scene, Luo Feng, who was fighting desperately, felt the fire in his heart burn fiercely once again.

"Beasts of the Realm, we will not admit defeat."

Luo Feng roared and, together with the Giant Axe Founder, led the charge towards the Beast King.

"I acknowledge your will..."
