Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

A full decade.

Lin Ye spent all ten years killing Chaos Beasts in the misty Chaos.

During these ten years, he absorbed the Chaos True Spirit while cultivating secret techniques.

His strength increased so dramatically that even Chan'er was dumbfounded.

It was also during these ten years that Lin Ye successfully broke through from the first level of Domain Lord to the ninth level of Domain Lord.

Even Chan'er couldn't understand this achievement.

The reason was simple.

Even by soaking in the Life Pond of the Virtual Universe Company, it was impossible to improve to the ninth level of Domain Lord as quickly as Lin Ye.

It only took ten years to go from the first level to the ninth level of Domain Lord!

After all, he was now a Domain Lord, not the Star-level powerhouse he once was.

Chan'er was both surprised and delighted by Lin Ye's rapid progress, but in the end, she had to accept it.

Finally, when Lin Ye could no longer feel the transformation of his soul no matter how much Chaos True Spirit he absorbed.

He knew that his soul transformation had reached its limit.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Ye returned directly to Chaos City.

To be precise, it was to return to his master, Venerable Fenchen's, residence in Chaos City.

"As expected of my good disciple, these ten years of hunting Chaos Beasts have changed you greatly!"

Venerable Fenchen smiled as he sized up Lin Ye, very satisfied with his current state.

A black-haired young man in scarlet armor stood there.

The faintly restrained ferocious aura was like a beast in a cage, ready to break free and devour anyone!

At this moment, the childishness Lin Ye had when he first arrived in Chaos City was gone, replaced by composure and restraint.

After the soul transformation.

He integrated the comprehended laws of the universe's origin into his bones, forming a unique temperament of his own.

"After ten years of life-and-death battles, next, your teacher will explain to you about the Universe Chaos Tablet."

Looking at Lin Ye, Venerable Fenchen said earnestly.

"Thank you, Master," Lin Ye said respectfully.

"Sit down, I'll give you a private lesson," Venerable Fenchen said with a smile.

Even as a powerful Venerable in Chaos City who had not established his own sect, he often accepted invitations to lecture throughout Chaos City, answering questions and dispelling doubts for other cultivators.

Therefore, although these cultivators were not nominally Venerable Fenchen's disciples, they had actually received his guidance and instruction.

"Okay," Lin Ye nodded, then sat opposite Venerable Fenchen, listening attentively to his master's explanation.

"From now on, I'll talk to you about the 'Universe Chaos Tablet' created by the City Lord of Chaos City. This Chaos Tablet and the 'Nine Universe Chaos Tablet' actually represent two directions of the City Lord's own cultivation."

"Since my good disciple has chosen the Universe Chaos Tablet, let's study it carefully."

As soon as he finished speaking, Venerable Fenchen pointed to the mid-air, and a picture composed of countless secret patterns suddenly appeared.

It was the content of the Universe Chaos Tablet!!

"In fact, the fundamental operation of these laws is like vast star fields, which then form a universe country, and finally, many universe countries form the vast territory of the human race... All of this has the same underlying principle."

As Venerable Fenchen's voice fell, streams of colorful secret patterns flowed out.

It looked like an extremely precise instrument was operating, containing the unpredictable power of many laws.

Lin Ye watched with fascination, listening with rapt attention.

In his mind, he couldn't help but conjure up some rules about the operation of the universe's origin laws.

The reason was simple.

His previous comprehension of the various origin laws had reached a level that ordinary World Lords could hardly match.

In addition to the ten years of hunting Chaos Beasts and absorbing the Chaos True Spirit.

Lin Ye had brought his own soul transformation to its peak, with no further progress possible.

If he wanted to achieve another transformation of his soul, he could only break through to become an undying god.

"In fact, the Universe Chaos Tablet corresponds to the fusion of space-time laws, even I haven't fully comprehended it, and I have some limitations in the comprehension of time laws."

Venerable Fenchen saw Lin Ye's doubts and then said.

"In fact, what you should comprehend most now is the three profound mysteries of the origin of space law—'Teleportation, Strangulation, Blockade'."

"Please give me guidance, Master," Lin Ye nodded respectfully.

"Spatial Teleportation, in short, is the specific application of spatial laws to quickly move people and things to a designated location..."

"Spatial Strangulation is the manipulation of energy in space to attack..."

"And the use of spatial laws to block all spatial channels and prevent the enemy from acting..."

"Next, I will demonstrate the profound mystery of Spatial Teleportation for you."

After speaking, Venerable Fenchen stood up and walked towards the center of the mansion.

With each step he took, his figure would flash to dozens of miles away.

From Venerable Fenchen's steps, Lin Ye could feel a mysterious and indescribable fluctuation of laws.

"This is also teleportation... The Spatial Teleportation performed by Huo Rong is indeed a different feeling."

Lin Ye muttered to himself as he watched Venerable Fenchen's movements.

Seemingly to allow his disciple to experience Spatial Teleportation more, Venerable Fenchen walked back and forth in the center of the square many times.

It was not until Lin Ye asked him to stop that he ended the demonstration.

"Alright, it seems that you have comprehended various truths and need to ponder them carefully," Venerable Fenchen said calmly as he looked at Lin Ye.

"This disciple has already sensed something and is now seizing these flashes of inspiration to continue in-depth analysis."

Indeed, as Lin Ye said, he had gained some insight after watching the teleportation dozens of times.

"Then next, I will answer some other cultivation questions for you," Venerable Fenchen said with a smile.

"Disciple... thanks Master for imparting knowledge, teaching skills, and dispelling doubts!!" Facing his master's wholehearted teaching, Lin Ye was extremely grateful.

Therefore, he could only try his best to listen carefully.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed.

In the center of the square, Lin Ye and Venerable Fenchen sat opposite each other.

This discussion between master and disciple benefited Lin Ye greatly, it was a wonderful ten years!

With the close guidance of a great existence like Venerable Fenchen, most of Lin Ye's confusions in cultivation were directly solved.

He even learned some secrets about the universe, more or less.

He broadened his horizons, increased his understanding, and improved his strength... This ten years was very fulfilling!!

"Disciple, once again, thanks Master for imparting knowledge, teaching skills, and dispelling doubts." Facing Venerable Fenchen, Lin Ye bowed again, respectfully performing a great salute.

"Good disciple, you don't need to be so polite!!"

Venerable Fenchen waved his hand with a smile.

"The number of levels of the Tongtian Bridge is your best explanation to your teacher, don't disappoint your teacher!"

As soon as he said this, a smile hung on his handsome face.

Obviously, Venerable Fenchen was very satisfied with this first and last disciple.

"Disciple obeys, and thank you Master for your years of patient guidance and teaching!!"

Saying that, Lin Ye knelt heavily on the ground: "Disciple will definitely not disappoint Master's expectations."

Lin Ye was grateful and very close to this extraordinary and great existence.

Although his master had an extraordinary status and belonged to the extremely forward existence among the universe Venerables.

But he spared no effort in teaching Lin Ye and did not hide anything at all.

In addition, he treated Lin Ye very kindly, which made the latter regard him as his master, both teacher and father!

"Hahaha, your teacher doesn't have too many expectations, I only hope that you can become an undying god as soon as possible and obtain eternal life!!"

Venerable Fenchen touched his chin and said with a smile: "This is my first expectation for you."

"What about the second one??" Lin Ye blinked his eyes and asked.

"The second is to become undying and invincible among the kings!!"

Venerable Fenchen's words were extremely firm, sonorous and forceful.

"Invincible among the kings!? Isn't that equivalent to existences like True Yan King and Black Mist King!?"

"Wrong! It's even stronger than them!!"

"True Yan King's current realm is just your starting point, my disciple must have a heart higher than the sky and a life thicker than the earth!!"

Venerable Fenchen's tone was unquestionable, making Lin Ye suddenly awe-stricken.

"Disciple... will definitely do my best!!" Lin Ye's answer was equally sonorous and forceful.

"In the past, I casually cultivated and produced Chan'er, Huo Rong, Medusa... these undying kings, now I am wholeheartedly cultivating you, it shouldn't be bad either."

"It's up to you!"

"Yes!" Lin Ye nodded heavily.

He knew that Venerable Fenchen had many king-level followers under his command, with strong strength.

Perhaps counting his disciples, there was no second one besides Chan'er.

Therefore, Lin Ye was naturally extremely proud to be the successor of such a great existence.

"Go, go! Your teacher is waiting for your good news here." Venerable Fenchen waved his hand with a smile.

"Yes!"

Lin Ye turned and left, beginning his journey to break through the Tongtian Bridge again!

After Lin Ye left, Venerable Fenchen summoned a messenger from Chaos City, explained the former's achievements in detail, and instructed the messenger to pass them on.

And the object of transmission was those young geniuses.

"Don't be under pressure all day long, now I'm helping Di Yu, adding fuel to the fire for them."

"Go!"

"Yes!" The messenger from Chaos City respectfully left.

Before long, the news of Lin Ye killing World Lord Chaos Beasts outside Chaos City swept across the entire city like a storm.

...

"As expected of Master, this kind of courage and strength is simply awe-inspiring!"

Luo Feng was also very excited when he heard this news.

Because the glory Lin Ye achieved was equivalent to his achievement.

After being excited, Luo Feng picked up the book sent by the black-robed messenger and continued reading:

"Being able to pass the eighteenth level of the Tongtian Bridge, you can not only obtain the qualification to reside permanently in Chaos City, but also establish a sect and accept disciples in Chaos City!"

"Tongtian Bridge, eighteenth level!" Luo Feng repeatedly chewed on these words, his eyes becoming more and more radiant.

After a while, his eyes gradually dimmed, and some thoughts floated in his mind—

"I have accumulated a lot of questions in the past ten years, it seems that it is time to ask my master again."

With this thought in mind, Luo Feng flew directly towards True Yan King's mansion, preparing to ask this great existence for advice and answer his doubts!

...

"What's going on!?"

"The Killing God actually ran to the outermost Chaos Mist to kill World Lord-level Chaos Beasts?"

In a certain cultivation residence in Chaos City, Gu Si Luo, who had a handsome appearance, put down his goblet, with an incredible look on his face.

"Authentic! He has been in the outer Chaos for almost ten years now!!"

Prince Wu Ka took a fist-sized exotic fruit exuding a hazy light and casually bit it.

"Ten years..." Hearing this number, Gu Si Luo slumped on the seat, his eyes blank.

"Ten years ago, Lin Ye was able to break through the seventh level of the Tongtian Bridge, but we... are still trapped on the third level and unable to break through, the gap is too big!!"

Gu Si Luo couldn't help but mutter to himself, his heart suddenly lost its direction.

"No, I have to pass the third level of the Tongtian Bridge as soon as possible to become a disciple."

Gu Si Luo gritted his teeth and made up his mind directly.

Next to him, Prince Man Ka Xing also had a stubborn look on his face: "First Lin Ye became Venerable Fenchen's disciple, then Luo Feng became True Yan King's disciple, I, Wu Ka, am not willing to lag behind!!"

Putting down the fruit core, Wu Ka felt a great pressure.

...

"As expected of the lunatic's master, this kind of strength and courage is really frightening!!"

"He actually dared to run to the outermost domain to kill Chaos Beasts, this..."

In the training field, Rong Jun, who was covered in sweat, roared, and a breathtaking light burst out in his eyes.

"It seems that even if I try my best, I can only slowly narrow the gap with Lin Ye."

Even though he was taught by both Demon Qi King and Yuan Chen Country Lord, Rong Jun did not have the slightest pride, but instead worked harder.

...

When the news of Lin Ye killing Chaos Beasts for ten years in the outer domain of Chaos City came back, every genius of this class felt great pressure.

Now, even if they kill Chaos Beasts in the most core area, they are cautious and worried.

How can they be like Lin Ye, who directly hunts high-level Chaos Beasts.

For a time, under the huge pressure from Lin Ye, every genius was full of energy.

They frequently entered the Tongtian Bridge in order to pass the third level as soon as possible and worship a good master.

But among the one thousand geniuses in each class, only a few people can break into the third level of the Tongtian Bridge.

Even so, everyone did not lose hope and was still doing their best.

...

Virtual Universe, Tongtian Bridge plane.

In the center of the dreamlike island, figures appeared one after another.

Without exception.

All of them are the young geniuses of this class who came to challenge the Tongtian Bridge.

Especially after being stimulated by Lin Ye, they rushed upwards like hungry wolves, wanting to get a good ranking.

"Bolan, there are two people queuing for the Tongtian Bridge you want to participate in, you are the third now," the black-robed supervisor said with a smile.

"Gu Si Luo, didn't the Tongtian Bridge beat you enough last time!? Why are you here again?" Prince Man Ka Xing looked at one of the handsome men and joked sourly.

"If you Wu Ka can come, why can't I come!?" Facing Wu Ka's ridicule, Gu Si Luo gave the strongest rebuttal.

"Okay, okay!!!"

“Stop arguing, my head hurts. I'll get in line for you all!” The gatekeeper Baffin wore a bitter expression as he looked at the chattering geniuses.

Then, he arranged everyone in order.

“Quick, look, the Killing God is here!!”

Someone shouted, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound, all of them extremely surprised.

“It's Lin Ye! That monster is really here!”

“The first time he challenged the Tongtian Bridge, he directly broke through seven levels. I wonder how far he can go after all these years of cultivation!”

“Anyway, he's much stronger than us. I still can't break through the third level; it's too difficult!!”

Many geniuses discussed animatedly, and Lin Ye smiled and nodded to them, appearing very approachable.

At this moment, they suddenly noticed another figure beside Lin Ye.

It was a young man in a white robe, still carrying that blood-colored long sword on his back.

Death God Bolan!

The white-robed, blood-sword man looked at Lin Ye and nodded slightly, “What a coincidence, you're also here to challenge the Tongtian Bridge!?”

“Killing God, how many levels are you planning to clear this time?”

“……”

Facing Lin Ye, the always aloof Death God Bolan actually became enthusiastic.

“This time… I plan to give it my all, as many levels as I can clear!”

Lin Ye didn't let Bolan's enthusiasm go unreturned; he also replied somewhat warmly.

“They all say you killed Chaos Beasts outside Chaos City and gained a lot of Chaos True Spirits. It seems it's true.”

Facing Bolan's rare teasing, Lin Ye blinked and smiled, “Genuine article!”

“Alright, I won't chat with you anymore.”

Lin Ye raised his hand slightly, interrupting the conversation, then turned to look at the Tongtian Bridge, his eyes burning with passion, “It's been twenty years since I challenged the Tongtian Bridge. I'm also looking forward to seeing how strong I've become.”

“Not just you, we're all looking forward to it!”

The surrounding geniuses all said in unison.

“Then wish me luck!”

After speaking, Lin Ye transformed into a streak of blood-colored light, flying straight towards the Tongtian Bridge, beginning his battle.

Behind him, Bolan and the other geniuses watched Lin Ye disappear in the blink of an eye, all feeling a sense of loss.

The gap between them and the Killing God… was getting bigger and bigger…
