Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 879

A deity cursed loudly, but the abyssal demons remained unmoved, their desire for destruction deeply ingrained in their minds.

A war between gods and demons was ignited, and the peaceful world became turbulent once again. Countless evil spirits began to emerge, wanting to profit from the chaos.

At this point, the gods could no longer worry about the threat from the extraterrestrial demons and had to deal with the immediate crisis first.

Wars involving deities are long-lasting and have a wide impact.

However, a day in heaven is equivalent to a year on earth. The gods' concept of time differs from that of mortals. A single thought can lead to the birth, aging, sickness, and death of countless mortals.

Main World – Adela Continent – ​​Blackwater City – Lower City!

A world interwoven with black and red, with the lava-like fiery red serving as the main light source in the lower city, bearing the responsibility of both light and fire.

Beneath the lava ruins, the parched earth was shrouded in darkness, with streams of black, viscous substance writhing like rivers, traversing the entire world.

Tick ​​tock!

As a resident of the downtown area, the thing I fear most is when it rains.

The boundless waters outside are deadly black waters in the lower city. Each drop of this ink-black water, once touched, is like having your bones ripped out and your marrow sucked dry.

Residents without some means of support wouldn't dare to wander around on a rainy day.

Of course, even without rain, the world remained dark for the residents of the downtown area.

Even so, a huge number of residents still live there, and there are also many outsiders who come with high hopes.

There's no other reason than that the Lower City area, despite its harsh environment, still possesses a power that can ignite a flame in people's hearts.

For people in the lower district, as long as they dare to work hard and take risks, they can still become professionals, become successful people, or even seize resources from others to advance themselves further.

Just like the Upper City, all the resources have been allocated, leaving no room for outsiders or those from the lower classes.

Perhaps it was intentional on the part of the Upper District, which suppressed the development of the Lower District while giving them hope, causing countless people to flock to it one after another, just to seize the fruit called power.

Drop drop!

A viscous black substance fell from the sky, like rain but not quite, landing on the streets built of molten stone.

"kill!"

"Bloody Hand Gang, this street is mine!"

"It's up to you!"

Under the cover of black rain, two gangs are engaged in an extremely fierce battle to determine who will rule the street.

The surrounding shops had already closed, clearly not wanting to get involved in the battle between the two.

The two gangs together numbered only thirty or forty people, and the battle did not last long.

The two sides are too weak, and the outcome will be decided quickly.

"Wild Wolf, you're about to break through..."

After a brief exchange, the leader of the Blood Hand Gang also showed a look of surprise on his face.

"Haha, go to hell!"

Wild Wolf revealed sharp claw-like weapons in both hands and tore off the head of the Blood Hand Gang leader at close range.

"The boss is mighty!"

"The boss is mighty!"

With their leader dead, the underlings naturally lost the motivation to fight to the death and chose to submit, joining the Wild Wolf Gang.

"Excellent! Taking over this street and acquiring resources will be enough to propel me forward again," the Wild Wolf Gang leader exclaimed excitedly.

As an outsider, he rose from an ordinary person to a professional, and now he has taken it a step further, which is something to be proud of.

If he hadn't come to this chaotic lower city, he probably would have remained an ordinary person for the rest of his life, and might have been taken away by the aftermath of a powerful professional at any time.

"I must achieve legendary success!" The leader of the Wild Wolf Gang made up his mind.

He then arranged for his underlings to take over the Blood Hand Gang while simultaneously informing the shops on the street that there was a new boss.

By integrating the resources of the two streets and allowing them to mature further, he has achieved a completely different breakthrough.

For professionals, every step forward represents a world of difference.

The victorious leader of the Wild Wolf Gang arrived at a shop at the end of the street.

"Skyscraper, forge some more Wild Wolf Gang badges for me, and also prepare an even more magnificent statue. Once I break through, I want it placed right in the center of the street," the Wild Wolf Gang leader shouted as he entered the shop.

Inside the shop, there were strangely shaped statues, including human figures, animal figures, and even some mythical beasts…

Each statue is exquisitely crafted, and seems to contain a wisp of divine charm.

Besides the statues, the shop also has some books and manuals that exude a strong spiritual aura. They are clearly not branded, but rather imbued with the spirit and will of the writers.

Inside the shop, a young man in a white coat was carefully polishing a sculpture, ignoring the Wild Wolf Gang leader who had barged in.

What are you building now?

Looking at the clay sculpture the shopkeeper was making, the leader of the Wild Wolf Gang felt a strange sense of unease.

It's clearly a clay sculpture, yet it gives people a sense of ethereal illusion, as if it doesn't belong to this world.

The Wild Wolf Gang leader had investigated the owner of this shop before, but with all sorts of people coming here, it was difficult to know anything about him.

All that is known is that he suddenly appeared in the lower city and opened a sculpture shop, creating exquisite statues for people to use as a facade.

Although this is the lower city, there are rich and poor people everywhere.

As a person with money and power, even if not much, one should strive to demonstrate one's uniqueness and to write down one's achievements.

In addition, the shop owner is highly skilled, so many gang leaders or new shop owners will ask him to customize statues.

At the same time, the shop owner was quite skilled, and some people guessed that he was also a professional. Out of fear, few people dared to make a move.

In the course of their interactions, the shop owner named Yunhe also established himself in the lower city.

Previously, the leader of the Wild Wolf Gang had also come to the shop owner to have the gang's emblem made. Now that he felt his influence had expanded and his strength might have even improved, he naturally wanted to boast about himself and wanted to erect a Wild Wolf statue in the street.

Are there any requirements for the statue?

The shop owner ignored the Wild Wolf Gang leader's words, asked about the requirements, and continued to build the shop in his own way.

“Naturally, it should be imposing and ferocious,” the Wild Wolf Gang leader said.

Then, looking at the way the skyscraper shop owner crafted the statue, it seemed to contain a certain special charm.

As the leader of the Wild Wolf Gang watched, he felt as if he were in a dreamlike world, a world that seemed both real and unreal, as if even the whole world itself was becoming somewhat unreal.

"Come back in three days to collect the badge, and in one month to collect the statue."

A cold voice rang in his ears, instantly bringing the Wild Wolf Gang leader back to his senses. He broke out in a cold sweat, responded, and quickly left the shop.

"There's a ghost!"

The Wild Wolf Gang leader left the shop with lingering fear, inexplicably recalling the rumors circulating in the lower city.

This place is chaotic, and although it contains opportunities, it also often sees refugees who have offended enemies and settle in the dungeon in hiding.

These people are no ordinary individuals; they have gone very far in their professional careers and their methods are extraordinary.

Therefore, although the lower city is chaotic, there is still order, and many conflicts revolve around the control of interests.

"Could it be him too?" The Wild Wolf Gang leader didn't dare to think too much and hurriedly left.

Meanwhile, the shop owner, dressed in white, was still intently polishing the sculpture in his hands.

Motian was somewhat confused about his identity until he came to his senses and found himself in the Lower City.

However, for some reason, I felt no panic at all and settled down there.

His greatest interest is creating statues, as if he wants to create something.

In his hands, the shape of the sculpture constantly changes, and without the interference of outsiders, the sculpture's posture changes faster and faster.

Various life forms are constantly changing in the hands of the giant, seemingly evolving into infinite shapes.

As time went by, their auras became increasingly similar, almost indistinguishable from each other.

Swish!

With a single stroke, the strangely shaped sculpture instantly transformed into a perfectly shaped sphere.

boom!

At that moment, a deafening roar exploded in Motian's mind, instantly bringing forth countless inspirations and memories, and the sculpture acquired its own name.

Mythical Beast – Modius!

Chapter 792 Professionals

"Who will wake up first from the dream? I know it all myself!"

"Finally woke up!"

Lu Yunhe was filled with emotion, never expecting that someone of his level would also experience a mystery of the womb.

Since arriving in this world of origin, Lu Yunhe has felt that there are some mystical aspects to it, which may be of great benefit to his cultivation.

The infinite source world, although most worlds are similar, is not much different.

However, through the evolution of the Hunyuan Space, many source worlds still possess unique characteristics.

The most typical example is the Origin World, a special primordial universe dimension that can almost mass-produce cosmic gods.

Anyone who emerges from the original universe dimension and possesses the potential of the Chaos Realm can obtain a portion of the foundation of a cosmic god.

And those wondrous world beasts are equally extraordinary, with boundless potential.

Unfortunately, the world of origin is closed off, and unless one possesses a powerful teleportation technique, it is difficult to communicate with other worlds.

Secondly, the supreme rules restrict and exclude all outsiders, preventing people from demonstrating their full potential.

Those who truly have the power to influence the supreme rules no longer care about the benefits.

However, given the unique nature of this world, there are naturally many extraordinary cultivators among the vast number of practitioners.

For example, Lu Yunhe, with the help of the "Illustrated Compendium", directly bypassed the restrictions of the supreme rules.
