Swallowed Star: Holy Flesh

In Hun Dun City, inside Hong’s residence.

Wang Xiu and the other two sat in the living room, chatting and laughing with each other.

"Third brother, you woke up just in time. If you had woken up a day later, we would have probably left Chaos City directly." Hong said with a smile while sitting on the sofa.

"That's right." Lei Shen also had a teasing look on his face. "We went to your place several times, but every time we saw you sitting on the rooftop, gesturing with your hands. It was obvious that you were immersed in cultivation, so we didn't disturb you."

"We both thought we wouldn't see you again before we left Chaos City."

"What a coincidence! I just realized something today." Wang Xiu said with a smile, "Otherwise I would have missed it."

"Something?" Thor's eyes widened with anticipation, "Except for the first year we arrived, he has never taken the initiative to look for us in the past thirty years."

"You're willing to take the initiative to come to us this time. It seems that you've gained a lot."

“Hehe.” Wang Xiu smiled slightly, “I guess so. I just understood and mastered all 108 essences of the origin of time today.”

"Have you understood all 108 kinds of essences?" Thunder God screamed, his eyes wide open.

"Brother, don't get excited." Wang Xiulian said, "I am also in Chaos City. With the help of Chaos City's special environment and the help of the Chaos Monument, I can cultivate so fast."

"Otherwise, how could I have mastered the remaining 36 basic mysteries in just years?"

After these words were spoken, the expressions in Hong and Lei Shen's eyes became more complicated.

The two of them had previously comprehended the law of the origin of thunder and lightning and the law of the origin of light. These two laws are subordinate laws to the law of the origin of time.

During the previous years in the Qianwu Secret Realm, he had successfully stepped into the threshold of the law of the origin of time.

After becoming a disciple of the Lord of Darkness and entering the City of Chaos, he also learned about the 108 essential aspects of the law of the origin of time.

During the past thirty years in Chaos City, I have been moving towards this goal, hoping that one day I can successfully comprehend the essence of the 108 original laws of time.

But they didn't expect that the goal they had always been pursuing was achieved so easily by the third brother.

They also knew that Wang Xiu had passed the thirteenth level of the Universe Bridge before, but they always thought that Wang Xiu relied on his attainments in the laws of the origin of space.

Moreover, Wang Xiu had never mentioned the law of the origin of time before.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiu successfully understood all 108 mysteries of the origin of time in just thirty years after entering Chaos City.

Although according to Wang Xiu, the other party has only comprehended thirty-six of them in the past thirty years, you have to know that those are the last thirty-six basic mysteries that are the most difficult!

During the same thirty years in Chaos City, Wang Xiu was able to fully understand the essence of the laws of the origin of time.

However, they can only comprehend the essence of nine original laws of time, or the first nine simplest ones.

Thinking about the fact that Wang Xiu had previously majored in the origin law of space, and that he had only just started to comprehend the origin law of time, even Hong and Lei Shen could not help but feel a little frustrated at this moment.

Although they knew before that Wang Xiu's talent was higher than theirs, they did not expect that after so many years of catching up, the gap not only did not narrow, but actually became even bigger.

"Third brother, please stop talking." Lei Shen waved his hand helplessly, "Let the second brother take it easy first."

"Sometimes I want to rip your head open and see what your brain is made of."

"Uh... if it doesn't work, how about you give it a try, second brother?" Wang Xiu hesitated, "Anyway, I have already broken through to the realm master level. Even if I lose my head, I won't die."

"Well, really?" Thor's eyes lit up, "Then I won't be polite!"

He stood up and was about to start a fight, which frightened Wang Xiu so much that he shook his head repeatedly and looked at Hong who was watching the show on the side: "Brother, are you still going to do anything?"

Hong, who was always calm, was in a playful mood at this moment. He looked at the two of them with a joking expression: "Second brother, be more flexible with your hands, so it won't hurt."

God damn it doesn't hurt!
Wang Xiu was completely speechless. Looking at Hong who was talking nonsense in a serious manner, he felt as if ten thousand horses were galloping through his heart.

It turns out that Hong, who is always serious, can be so frivolous sometimes.

As the three of them were laughing and playing, time passed quickly. On this day, Wang Xiu rarely relaxed himself. He did not practice, but just chatted with his two brothers to relax.

The three of them took out the wine and food they had prepared in advance from their space rings and talked about what had happened in the past few years and their future plans.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon of the next day.

Looking at the spaceship floating above Chaos City, Wang Xiu smiled and said to Hong and Lei Shen who had already packed up and were ready to leave: "Big brother, second brother, I won't go up to see you off. See you in the Primordial Secret Realm."

"Haha, good." Lei Shen said with a hearty smile, "Then we brothers will meet again in the Primitive Secret Realm next time, and we can call on the fourth guy then."

"We're leaving." After nodding his head to say goodbye, Hong took off and flew towards the spaceship in the sky.

Upon seeing this, Thor turned into a flash of lightning and followed.

At this moment, in the entire Chaos City, hundreds of figures rose up one after another, each soaring into the sky and rushing towards the spaceship high in the sky.

This caused the powerful people who were practicing on the rooftop of the Chaos City residence to subconsciously look over here. This was a rare lively moment in Chaos City.

After a moment, no figure rose up in Chaos City, and the spaceship in the sky started up and disappeared at the end of the horizon.

After looking at Chaos City for a short while, which had returned to its former tranquility, Wang Xiu withdrew his gaze and turned to walk towards the City Lord's Mansion.

……

In the inner court of the City Lord's Mansion, Wang Xiu stood in front of the Chaos Ruins Courtyard.

One step in.

Boom!

As time and space changed, Wang Xiu appeared on a vast continent of ruins, with corpses of hundreds of millions of tribes scattered all over the place. In the distance, a figure was sitting cross-legged in silence.

"Teacher." Wang Xiu stepped forward, being careful not to step on the corpses beneath his feet, and bowed respectfully.

The figure slowly stood up.

Turning to look at Wang Xiu, the pair of eyes on that ferocious face were still as gentle as jade. The Chaos City Lord smiled and nodded: "You finally came to see me?"

"Disciple has just fully understood and mastered the 108 essences of the law of the origin of time, and immediately came to report to the teacher." Wang Xiu said respectfully.

"Immediately?" The Lord of Chaos City looked at Wang Xiu with a smile.

Wang Xiu immediately smiled awkwardly.

Yes, this is Chaos City.

For the Lord of Chaos City who controls the entire initial universe, there is nothing in the entire Chaos City that can be hidden from his existence.

The Lord of Chaos City must have known that Wang Xiu did not come to find him immediately after he came out of seclusion.

Wang Xiu's mind raced as he frantically thought of what excuse he could come up with, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find a suitable one.

God have mercy on me. Wang Xiuzhen didn't mean to deceive the Lord of Chaos City. He just said it casually. Who could have thought that the other party would really hold on to it.

Just when Wang Xiu was about to tell the truth, the voice of the Chaos City Lord sounded again: "Okay, stop thinking about it."

"I know they are your brothers in life and death. They are about to leave Chaos City, so it is only right for you to go meet them."

"Thank you for your understanding, Master." Wang Xiu smiled and replied, secretly breathing a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Lord of Chaos City did not hold it against him for deceiving him.

Otherwise, if it really gets too serious, my small body really can't handle it.

"I thought that no matter how fast you are, it would take you at least a hundred years to fully comprehend the essence of the law of the origin of time. But I didn't expect you to be so fast. It only took you thirty years to fully comprehend the essence of the law of the origin of time." The Lord of Chaos smiled, "It gave me a little surprise."

"good."

"Thank you for the compliment, teacher." Wang Xiu said respectfully.

This was in Chaos City, a holy place for cultivation where the laws governing the operation of the universe were laid bare, not to mention the assistance of the Chaos Monument of the Universe. If I cultivated even more slowly, then it would have been a waste of my trip.

“Haha.” The Lord of Chaos smiled faintly and shook his head. “You can be humble, but being too humble is not good.”

"Even in Chaos City, to fully comprehend the essence of the last thirty-six laws of time in thirty years can be considered excellent."

"Yes, teacher." Wang Xiu bowed his head and saluted.

Wang Xiu was his youngest disciple, and just like a parent, he always took better care of his youngest son.

At this moment, the Lord of Chaos City looked at Wang Xiu who bowed his head and saluted. In a trance, he seemed to see the spiritual little guy "Kedi" who knelt in front of him that year.

The same extraordinary gift, the same brilliant talent.

"Kedi..." When the Chaos City Lord thought of Kedi, who was also his direct disciple, he couldn't help but feel sadness and anger in his heart.

"Okay, no need to be so formal." The Lord of Chaos City sighed.

"Since you have already fully understood the essence of the laws of time and space, what remains is to gradually integrate the essence of all the laws step by step, and finally integrate all the essences into one."

"By then, you will be able to fully master the laws of time and space."

"It's just that integrating the essence of the law is ten or a hundred times more difficult than simply understanding the essence of the law. Of course, compared to those who haven't even understood the essence of the law, your future path will be much easier."

"But even so, this road is not so easy to walk, otherwise there wouldn't be so few people who fully comprehend the laws of time and space."

"I will give you a set of secret techniques called 'Universe'. This is a set of secret techniques for fighting," said the Lord of Chaos City. "The essence of secret techniques is the application of laws."

"And this set of cosmic traces contains the method of using the essence of the laws after they are integrated. You can use this set of secret methods to integrate the essence of the laws step by step in the process of practicing the secret methods."

"In theory, even if you fully understand the laws of time and space, this secret method will still apply."

"It's just that everyone's order of integrating the essence of the laws is different. Plus, as your combat experience increases, you will gradually find that this set of secret techniques will be less and less able to bring out your full strength."

"When that time comes, you will be able to create your own secret techniques based on this set of secret techniques."

"Yes, disciple will take his leave." Wang Xiu was happy and responded immediately.

"Well, go ahead." The Lord of Chaos City nodded, "Someone will send this set of secret techniques to you through the virtual universe."

"Also... on the day you reach the realm master level, and on the day you leave Chaos City, come to Chaos Ruins once."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Xiu disappeared instantly and was directly moved out of the Chaos Ruins by the Lord of Chaos City.
