Devouring the Star: Age of Cataclysm

"Initial universe!"

"Have we entered the initial universe!?"

After hearing what the Venerable Emperor Yu said, the geniuses from many cosmic countries suddenly became excited.

Pairs of curious eyes looked around, and finally looked up at the ceiling above.

"Open the top hatch!"

Venerable Di Yu said calmly.

"Whoosh!!!"

Above the hall, the metal roof automatically separated to reveal the most transparent glass outer layer.

For a moment, the entire top became transparent.

All the geniuses raised their heads at the same time, looking at the outside world through the transparent layer.

In the boundless grey void, wisps of chaotic air drifted away from time to time, sparsely scattered.

In the farther distance, one could vaguely see the sky and earth cracking apart, with colorful strange secret patterns flowing out through the edges of the cracks, like water plants at the bottom of a river with an undercurrent.

They are connected one by one, and secret patterns emerge from time to time, interweaving and merging together, expanding the void even more like a loom.

"What a strange feeling." Lin Ye looked at the strange secret patterns in the cracks of space, and an unprecedented familiar feeling arose in his heart.

It seemed... he had seen these lines a long time ago.

At the same time, the Thousand Tribulations Pagoda in the sea of ​​consciousness also emitted wisps of crimson light, which was extremely mysterious.

These lights floated in the sea of ​​consciousness, and finally turned into strange symbols, which were all imprinted on Lin Ye's limbs and bones.

For a moment, his understanding of the original law became clearer.

He even actively attracted these original laws to move towards him.

Very good feeling!!
Unconsciously, Lin Ye gently closed his eyes and concentrated on feeling this experience.

The same was true for the immortals present. Sometimes they tilted their heads to watch, sometimes closed their eyes in deep thought, and sometimes talked in low voices.

The turtle-shaped spacecraft continued to move forward, and along the way, some cracks in the cosmic space could be seen, as well as an increasing number of strange silk thread patterns...

"Everyone knows that stars and planets have lifespans, and the universe also has its own lifespan, but this lifespan is countless times longer than that of ordinary humans."

"The initial universe we are in now is in the first stage of 'the beginning of the world', and it will continue to improve and form. At this time, the laws of the origin of the universe will be revealed... which are the transparent threads and strange secret patterns that everyone sees."

"These things that are constantly repairing the cracks in the universe are the original laws of the universe."

"These are the fundamental laws of the universe... they are truly amazing!!"

"This is the first time I've seen this in my life!"

"Me too!"

"..."

Luo Feng and 999 other geniuses all widened their eyes, staring at these strange threads with a look of disbelief on their faces.

These silk threads that are constantly repairing the universe and the strange floating secret patterns are actually all the laws governing the operation of the universe.

"Everyone, the original universe we live in now is actually an extremely vast and perfect universe. Therefore, it is very difficult to sense the original laws of the universe."

"Do you know why?" Suddenly, Venerable Di Yu asked.

“No!” Many geniuses shook their heads, only Lin Ye had a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"Because the perfection of the original universe comes from the perfect combination of the major original laws, the laws are not very obvious, making it extremely difficult to perceive.
But... this initial universe is just the opposite. Everyone can clearly see how all the rules are perfectly combined, so it is not difficult to obtain it. "

"The chance to gain enlightenment in the initial universe is extremely precious, so you better seize it."

Venerable Emperor Yu said solemnly, his eyes fixed on the immortal gods present.

The latter immediately became stern and began to look intently above his head, obviously cherishing time very much.

"Time's up, close."

Following the order from Venerable Di Yu, the hatch on top of the spacecraft was closed directly.

"Next, we will arrive at Chaos City. This is where you will live and practice after you enter. Although I brought you all here, you cannot be too arrogant, because the inconspicuous person you see may very well be the Immortal King."

"I hope everyone will be alive when I come to pick you up again in 30 years."

"especially you!"

As he spoke, Venerable Di Yu's gaze fell on Lin Ye.

His eyes were calm and vast, and he just stared at the young man quietly.

"Yes, I know." Facing the gaze of this great being, Lin Ye nodded heavily: "I will protect myself well and work hard to improve!"

"Okay!" A long-lost smile appeared on Venerable Di Yu's face.

Next, Venerable Di Yu explained some details and continued to sail in the vast original universe with the turtle-shaped spacecraft.

Soon, the spaceship arrived above an ancient city.

The hatch on the turtle's belly opened wide, and 1000 geniuses were scattered from the sky, and then disappeared directly into the horizon.

"Wow... Such a comfortable feeling. This place feels very special!"

"It's really comfortable. I feel like I'm going to sleep."

“Yes, I feel the same way.”

A group of young geniuses stood in mid-air. Lin Ye looked down at the majestic ancient city below, and waves of emotion surged in his heart.

"This is Chaos City!!"

Heavy and weathered, this is the heritage left behind after countless years.

"call out!!"

Just as everyone was shocked by the scenery before them, two streams of light shot out from a distance.

One black and one white!
"Everyone, we are the reception envoys of Chaos City. I believe that Master Di Yu has already communicated with you."

A young man wearing a white battle suit and with purple-gold scales on his forehead flew over and said with a smile, "This city is a Chaos City that has existed for a very long time. It is currently jointly managed by the five giants of the human race."

"But you are all core members of the Virtual Universe Company. Don't panic since it's your first time here. I will take you with me." Another female receptionist in a black uniform added with a smile.

"Next, let's take a brief tour of the environment here. I will also tell you some precautions about living in Chaos City. As long as you follow the rules, there will be no problem at all."

Then, the two reception envoys led everyone to tour the entire magnificent ancient city.

I looked at it carefully from inside to outside.

This group of new fresh blood also caused quite a stir in Chaos City.

Many powerful beings who had been living in seclusion here came forward, feeling the presence of this group of young geniuses, with nostalgic looks on their faces.

Each of them is an unrivaled genius who emerged from the universe genius war.

But time flies, and countless eras have passed in the blink of an eye.

The young people who were once full of vigor and vitality have now become middle-aged and elderly people.

It took about an hour for many geniuses to have a general understanding of the place.

Seeing this, the two receptionists led them directly to the City Lord's Mansion.

That is the real focus of their trip.

The two envoys, black and white, led the bustling crowd of human youths through the streets and headed towards the city lord's mansion.

Along the way, the powerful people who were practicing on the rooftops aroused the surprise of these geniuses.

"Brother Bai, how can I become a permanent resident of Chaos City?" asked the bravest Prince Wuka of Manka Star. "When you become immortal... you will know naturally." The white robed messenger looked at the fat boy and said with a smile: "So before you know this, work hard to become immortal."

Wuka: “…”

……

"Everyone, the City Lord's Mansion is ahead. You will see the most mysterious of the three treasures of Chaos City."

The young receptionist in white uniform said mysteriously, "But when we go in, you must be careful not to look too much at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, otherwise you will get into trouble."

"Sir, what are the three treasures of Chaos City?" A genius asked, with curiosity written all over his face.

"The first of the three treasures of Chaos City is the laws of the universe that can be seen everywhere. The second is these 52 Chaos Stele. As for the third treasure... after you have comprehended the Chaos Stele and crossed the Tongtian Bridge, you can move freely outside the city. At that time, you will encounter the third treasure - Chaos Spirit Beast."

"It's no use thinking too much now, let's go!!"

The group of people marched through the gate of the City Lord's Mansion and walked to the entrance of a corridor that looked almost like a dream. "Next, we will see a series of Chaos Stele. You can choose the one that suits you best to comprehend!"

Lin Ye looked over.

Huge paintings are hung on the walls on both sides of the corridor.

A total of fifty-two pictures! !
"Remember, every cultivator who enters the initial universe for the first time has a chance to comprehend the Chaos Monument for seven days."

"Don't think this time is short, because the Chaos Monuments are the most precious treasures of our race. They convey the path to the pinnacle more clearly than any secret method. Seven days is worth a ton of gold!"

"Okay, now you will start looking at these 52 Chaos Stele rubbings, and then decide which Chaos Stele to choose as your object of contemplation."

The black-robed female messenger spoke.

"Yeah!" Everyone nodded.

In this way, a group of thousands of people walked in the wide corridor, looking at the murals around them, and suddenly they felt like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden.

Each picture is of the standard 3.3 meters in height, and there are special illustrations and names next to the pictures.

Lin Ye also mixed in with the group of people and started watching.

……

"This is the law of the origin of wind, it's so clear that I can't even feel it!!"

Lin Ye walked up to a plain-looking mural and immediately felt a strong wind sweeping towards him.

Among them, there is an indescribable mysterious artistic conception filling the whole body.

"It's very good, but it's not my path." Lin Ye shook his head slightly, paused for a full minute and continued walking forward.

"Boom!!!"

Taking a step forward, Lin Ye seemed to have entered a chaotic world. A raging heat wave rushed towards him, causing his hair to be slightly blown up.

“Is this the fundamental law of fire?
It’s an amazing feeling.”

In my mind, there is a raging fire burning, and there is a golden phoenix bathing in the sea of ​​fire, which may be reborn at any time.

Lin Ye stepped into the flames, feeling the power within, and was shocked.

As he kept walking, he could feel the terrifying and eternal law of the origin of fire contained in it. After careful experience, Lin Ye understood a lot.

"The original law of fire... is actually like this!!" Lin Ye whispered to himself, and his understanding of the original law of fire was elevated to a new level.

"My young master, five minutes is all you need."

Suddenly, Chan'er's voice sounded in Lin Ye's mind, encouraging him.

"Yeah, I know." Lin Ye nodded slightly and then opened his eyes.

At this moment, he was surprised to find that he was less than three fists away from the mural containing the origin law of endless fire.

"A painting alone is so magical. I wonder how mysterious the Chaos Stele engraved by it must be!"

The flames burning in Lin Ye's eyes slowly died down, and he returned to his usual calm state.

Then, Lin Yeyou chose a painting and began to look at it.

Because there is only half an hour, he has to seize every minute and second to make a choice.

The mural in front of you contains a lot of information, with clear black and white patterns in the middle.

Further out, there is an endless black pattern.

A white river runs through it, with high mountains vaguely visible on both sides.

The clouds were light, the wind was gentle, the mountains were flat, the water was still... everything created an extremely quiet and peaceful environment. Lin Ye couldn't help but immerse himself in it, and his mind began to fall asleep.

In his sea of ​​consciousness, a ray of scarlet light flickered, stimulating Lin Ye's consciousness which was constantly falling into darkness.

"Hiss... What a horrible landscape painting. It actually affects my consciousness and soul." Lin Ye quickly woke up and looked at the name on the painting - "Chaos Monument"

Without giving it much thought, he went on to look at other pictures nearby, searching for a Chaos Monument that suited him.

……

One picture after another!
These thousand geniuses were like hungry sponges, each with green eyes staring intently at every picture.

What's worse, some people even become addicted to it.

If it weren't for the intelligent optical computer's reminder, they probably wouldn't have realized the passage of time.

"Is this the 'Heart Mark Chaos Monument'!? What a terrifying sword intent." Lin Ye's eyes swept across a large picture, and his mind seemed to be chopped off by an imperceptible ray of sword light.

There were a total of 10081 knife marks on the picture, and in Lin Ye's perception, each of them was enough to easily kill a Venerable-level being.

"I really don't know which universe master left this Chaos Monument. The swordsmanship is really terrifying."

Lin Ye withdrew his gaze and continued walking forward.

His goal is simple.

It is either the 'Universe Chaos Monument' left by the Lord of Chaos City or the 'Great Axe Chaos Monument' carved by the Founder of the Great Axe.

As for the rest... Lin Ye didn't have any ideas.

Firstly, they are not very familiar with other masters of the universe, and secondly, their strength cannot catch up with these two top giants of the human race.

"Half an hour has passed. Everyone, please tell me which Chaos Monument you chose!"

The woman in black uniform shouted loudly.

"I choose the Void Gold Chaos Monument."

"I choose the Great Axe Chaos Monument."

"I choose the Mother Chaos Monument."

"..."

The answers were announced one by one in voices that were trembling with excitement.

Two reception messengers, one in black and one in white, kept walking in the corridor, recording the choices of these geniuses.

To be honest, if there was not only one choice, they would have chosen all 52 Chaos Monuments.

However...there is no if in all of this!
"I choose the Cosmic Chaos Monument." Lin Ye and Luo Feng said at the same time.

After the words fell, the two smiled at each other and nodded slightly.

Soon, the choices of the thousand little geniuses had been made.

"Okay, now I will arrange for you to comprehend the Chaos Monument. Follow me."

"Okay!" x1000.
