Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Once Hong came to her senses, her gratitude towards Lu Yunhe deepened, realizing just how precious the changes that had occurred within her truly were.

Especially the clone talent. Although Hong had a normal attitude towards Luo Feng's golden horned beast, it would be a lie to say that he was not envious of the clone talent.

But now things are different; he also possesses the talent of creating clones, greatly increasing his ability to survive.

Chapter 272 Lord Xiyue

After his emotions gradually calmed down, Hong looked at his smooth body, which was about 100 meters tall, and couldn't help but frown.

"Do I also need to create a human body?"

Hong Wei hesitated slightly, after all, he only had two clone slots, which were very precious, and humans had no advantage in terms of either strength or talent.

The Ultra clone beside him immediately noticed Hong's hesitation and smiled slightly: "Hong, imagine what you originally looked like as a human."

"The appearance of a human!"

Hong began to recall, and the next moment, his tall body slowly shrank back to its original size.

"It's back to normal!"

Hong clenched his fist, his heart filled with surprise once again. This body was exactly the same as his original body, except for the difference in strength.

"In the future, I will create a new kingdom here!"

Ultraman's clone looked at the burning star ahead. In the constellation Orion, there was a nebula called the M78 Nebula.

"Let's go back to Earth first!"

Seeing that Hong was completely immersed in the changes in his body, Ultraman's clone brought him back to Earth once again.

"This body contains limitless potential; you should develop it well!"

Ultraman's clone threw Hong back into the martial arts gym, but changed his identity and reintegrated into Earth, slowly entering a state of cultivation.

For Ultraman clones, the focus of training is mainly on creating secret techniques, as well as comprehending and understanding the Wings of Time and Space and the Plasma Spark Tower.

If he could fully control these two supreme treasures of extremely high level, it would be enough for him to roam freely throughout the primordial universe.

In addition, Ultraman's clones are constantly absorbing Spark Crystals to improve their own genetic level.

He was very curious: if he achieved perfect genes and was granted the most powerful secret technique in the original universe, what kind of secret technique would he receive?

……

Chaos City!

All the clones were immersed in cultivation, while Lu Yunhe himself was unhurried and engrossed in refining weapons, determined to forge a natal treasure for himself.

However, unlike others who refine true treasures, Lu Yunhe prefers a mechanical approach, constructing a large number of different basic structures to form a whole.

This is also what the original ancestor is best at. Moreover, in this way, Lu Yunhe only needs to build a basic structure, and the core components can be dealt with later, which can reduce the difficulty by several levels.

Just after Lu Yunhe finished practicing with a round of treasures, the virtual universe sent a communication request.

Lu Yunhe was overjoyed when he saw the names on the list, and his consciousness instantly entered the virtual universe.

"teacher!"

Lu Yunhe appeared on a mountain peak, with a cool and elegant woman in purple robes and white hair standing beside him. This was his first teacher since arriving in Chaos City, the Queen of the Moon.

At this moment, even the usually aloof King Xiyue couldn't help but show a faint smile on his face. The interplay of aloofness and brightness added a lot of color to the entire environment.

"Congratulations on your breakthrough, teacher!"

Seeing the familiar aura emanating from King Xiyue, Lu Yunhe immediately offered his congratulations.

"After cultivating for countless years, I have finally broken through to the Venerable realm."

The Queen of the Moon couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions. She had been stuck at the Immortal God stage for countless years and once thought that she would never have a chance to break through in her lifetime.

But unexpectedly, a disciple she took in by chance touched her heart, and she instantly seized a breakthrough opportunity, eventually becoming a supreme cosmic venerable.

After breaking through to the Cosmic Venerable Realm, Venerable Xiyue also gained the authority to build a palace on the mountainside of Thunder Island Mountain Range, and was also able to join the Supreme Human Council and have voting rights.

Influenced by Lu Yunhe, Xi Yue immediately notified her disciples after her breakthrough.

However, upon seeing Lu Yunhe, Xi Yue was immediately surprised and puzzled: "Yunhe, you have already broken through to the Immortal God level, why don't you stay at the Realm Lord level for a while longer?"

If Xi Yue remembers correctly, she has only been in seclusion for a little over a thousand years, while the lifespan of a World Lord is at least a thousand epochs.

In addition to the special advantages of being a Realm Lord, one can stay for at least 100,000 or even 1 million years, if not until nearing the end of their lifespan.

"My understanding of the laws has basically reached its limit, so I just took the opportunity to break through," Lu Yunhe said casually.

Upon hearing Lu Yunhe's words, Xi Yue took the opportunity to check the major events that had occurred previously. The first one was the news that her disciple had successfully passed through the Primal-level Tongtian Mountain.

Upon seeing this message, Xi Yue's initial joy at breaking through to the Cosmic Venerable realm was momentarily mixed with mixed feelings.

"Yunhe, it seems it won't be long before you surpass your master."

Xi Yue suddenly felt a little fortunate. If she hadn't broken through to the Universe Venerable realm, her disciple would probably have caught up with her, and might even be a notch stronger.

"Maybe!"

Lu Yunhe remained expressionless and gently echoed, "Let's not be too discouraging."

"Congratulations to King Xiyue on breaking through to the Universe Venerable level..."

"Xi Yue, congratulations..."

While Lu Yunhe was chatting with Xi Yue, the other Venerables located on the mountainside also learned of this information. Those Venerables who were nearby or who already knew Xi Yue came to offer their congratulations.

"Uh-huh……"

Xi Yue was not good at responding, so she could only reply casually. After all, she had been wandering in the secret realm and was not very familiar with these Venerables.

However, the cosmic venerables who came to congratulate Xi Yue did not care about her coldness. Having seen many eccentric people, they considered her aloof personality to be only average.

The reason these cosmic venerables are so approachable is naturally due to their power.

After all, there are different things between universe venerables. Xi Yue broke through by becoming an invincible king, so once she broke through, she had at least the strength to be comparable to a mid-level universe venerable, instantly surpassing a group of universe venerables.

"Hello, Lu Yunhe."

After congratulating Xi Yue, the arriving Universe Venerable did not forget Lu Yunhe beside him.

As the official disciple of the Chaos City Lord, Lu Yunhe's status was no less than theirs, even though he hadn't broken through to the Universe Venerable realm.

“Xi Yue, you have built a palace on the mountainside. I’m afraid it won’t be long before your disciple will be able to build a palace next to you.”

A cosmic venerable laughed loudly: "When the master and disciple break through to the cosmic venerable realm one after the other, it will be a legendary tale in the universe."

His words revealed deep envy. The master-disciple relationship was arguably the best in the universe. When the two of them became cosmic venerables, they would explore the secret realms of the universe together. The intimacy and trust they shared would be on a completely different level from that of others.

"Build a palace on the mountainside!"

Lu Yunhe chuckled to himself. Not to mention the mountainside, he had already built a palace on the mountaintop, overlooking the entire Thunder Island.

"Finally gone!"

After dealing with these cosmic venerables, Lu Yunhe let out a long sigh of relief.

"Finally, some peace and quiet!"

Xi Yue also disliked this kind of social interaction from a cosmic venerable, but one can't refuse someone who's all smiles, and since they were already there, it wasn't appropriate to refuse them directly.

After expressing their feelings, the two looked at each other's expressions and couldn't help but smile.

"Teacher, are you in Chaos City right now?"

Looking at Xi Yue's smiling face, Lu Yunhe's heart stirred, and he asked.

"Yes, after breaking through to the Universe Venerable level, I also returned to Chaos City."

Xi Yue nodded. As a member of the Virtual Universe Company, after breaking through to the Universe Venerable level, she naturally needed to pay her respects to the Chaos City Lord.

"Perfect timing, I'm also in Chaos City right now, I have something to give to my teacher."

After Lu Yunhe finished speaking, he logged off and left the Treasure Refining Room, heading to the City Lord's Mansion.

Among humans, the buying and selling of precious and supreme treasures are all conducted in the Chaos City Lord's Mansion in the initial universe.

After all, there are few places in the entire primordial universe that are safer than the initial universe, so a large number of precious treasures are kept here.

Furthermore, the appraisal of treasures is entirely conducted by the virtual universe system, which carefully examines and determines their value. Because it is an intelligent system, there is no need to worry about the influence of personal bias, which has been unanimously praised by all the powerful members of the human race.

The location for the treasure exchange... is an ancient side hall in the City Lord's Mansion of the Initial Universe. To offer treasures, one must first apply in the virtual universe, as the ancient side hall is usually closed. Only after applying... will the side hall automatically open upon arrival.

Lu Yunhe arrived at a side hall of the city lord's mansion.

"Boom~~~" The ancient palace door slowly opened, and the bronze door about a hundred meters wide was fully opened.

"This is where the clan trades treasures." Lu Yunhe looked around the entire side hall. The side hall was very spacious, with a huge stone plate about 100 meters in diameter placed in the very center. As long as the treasure was placed in the stone plate, the virtual universe system could conduct a detailed inspection of the treasure through the stone plate.

Although Lu Yunhe called it a trading point, the clan named this hall "Xian," meaning that those who traded there were offerings to the clan.

For example, a common offensive Arcana item might cost one Arcana Point in the Vault. If you buy it and then resell it to your clan, the purchase price will only be 0.8 Arcana Points. The difference is your contribution to the clan.

The price difference from this transaction alone is enough for the clan to acquire a considerable fortune, which they can then use to exchange for equivalent resources to nurture weak geniuses, and even immortal gods...

The powerful among the human race were well aware of the price difference, but they had no objection to it. They called it a donation, but it was really just to satisfy some vanity and give face.

After all, which store sells at the same price? It's already quite conscientious of them not to double the price in the process.

"First, transfer the treasure points from Ultraman's clone side."

Lu Yunhe checked his Treasure Points balance, which was still zero. The Treasure Points given by the clan were still with Ultraman's clone.

Although Lu Yunhe also possessed some treasures, they all came from the Ancestral Treasure Refining Hall, so naturally he could not contribute them to the human treasury.

After all, those treasures were all personally crafted by the original ancestor. It wouldn't matter if he used them himself, but to sell them would be going too far. Lu Yunhe even suspected that the virtual universe system wouldn't recognize them.

Lu Yunhe then made a few operations in the virtual universe, and his account instantly gained one hundred Treasure Points.

Once Lu Yunhe had money, a gentle voice rang out, "This is a detailed form for exchanging precious treasures from the human race."

Suddenly, a hazy, enormous gray form appeared in mid-air above the side hall, displaying four large categories: Supreme Treasures, Valuable Treasures, Materials, and Special Resources...

Lu Yunhe looked up at the huge gray form in mid-air and checked the special resource category.

Wow!

The forms have changed, and a large number of complex resource exchanges have emerged, with all sorts of things available.
