Volume 4: Xuanyuan King Chapter 29: Imitation of Black Prison Tower!
Meet the Star Prison Demon Lord?
"Teacher, this--" Lin Yan was a little surprised.
You know, what a top existence the Star Prison Demon Lord is in the human race?
The top cosmic overlords are already infinitely close to the realm of the Lord of the Universe. Take the cosmic kings of the 1008 cosmic countries of the human race in the universe for example, the gap between them and the Star Prison Demon Lord is like an invincible chasm, just like the ordinary peak kings and the invincible kings like the True Yan King, which are out of reach.
Could it be that... just because I encountered a bottleneck in the cultivation of "Black Hole Holy Body", I could ask such a super powerful person with such a transcendent status to give me guidance?
Or is it the Star Prison Demon Lord who is like a "nightmare"?
This made Lin Yan feel flattered.
Unlike the previous Zushu Venerable, that was a matter of life and death after all, and it was only a matter of cultivation. Those strong men were all very arrogant, and he was not that important.
The Lord of Dusk Star said softly, "I have already told the Lord of Chaos that I can create an opportunity for you to meet him so that you can feel the Tao of the Lord of Star Prison more closely. As for what you can comprehend, that depends on your ability and luck."
"But teacher, why is it that according to the information I know, the Star Prison Demon Lord is practicing the 'Way of the Time Beast God'?" Lin Yan asked puzzledly.
Lin Yan had heard of existences like the Star Prison Demon Lord to some extent. According to rumors, he had achieved great accomplishments in the Way of the Time Beast God, and was even very close to the level of "Beast God".
If not for this, Lin Yan would have suspected him long ago.
The Lord of Dusk Star nodded slightly: "Indeed, he is the eldest disciple of the Lord of Chaos City. In the eyes of many people, at that time, the highest level of the human race was more optimistic about him than the 'Saint Lord Youhou'."
"Because he is truly gifted, and he has a special life form with thousands of times more genetic power. Although there is still a big gap between you and him, in his time, he also shocked countless people."
"In order to go further on his own path, he not only studied the laws of time and space, but also practiced the 'Way of the Time Beast God' by analogy, reaching an extremely high level. He should have become the master of the universe, but he was too stubborn."
Lin Yan was secretly surprised.
I have to say, there are too many geniuses in the world.
Just for the sake of learning by analogy, he practiced the "Way of the Time Beast God" to a level extremely close to that of the Beast God. How brilliant ?
But……
The Holy Lord of Youhou has now become the Lord of Youhou, the Star Prison Demon Lord. He once had other titles, but when he got the title of "Star Prison Demon Lord", he still did not take that step.
It was as if I was sinking.
The Lord of Dusk Star shook his head, his eyes vague: "The so-called 'Star Prison' does not just mean 'Star Prison'. For billions of stars, 'black holes' play the role of 'prison'. For him, isn't he trapped in such a prison?"
"This is his path, and also his yoke."
Lin Yan frowned slightly.
Shackles? Prison?
Judging from what the teacher of the Lord of the Dusk Star Kingdom said, the Lord of the Star Prison Demon should have reached the pinnacle in the way of time and space and the way of the Time Beast God. So if he wants to break through the threshold of the Lord of the Universe, he must either comprehend the Heart of the Beast God or understand the laws of time and space.
There seems to be no conflict between this and "The Beginning of One Yuan".
The Lord of Dusk Star obviously saw through Lin Yan's thoughts and chuckled, "Generally speaking, those who can reach the level of the Overlord of the Universe... have already infinitely close understanding of the laws of the universe. If they are spiritualists, their soul amplitude has almost reached perfection. The same is true for warriors. In this case, the difference in combat power mainly lies in the gap in the secret skills and the level of life genes!"
"However, whether they are immortals, venerables, or masters of the universe, many people are stuck at the bottleneck limit of the law perception and cannot break through for countless years. What are they missing?"
Lin Yan's eyes narrowed slightly.
This situation is very common.
It seems to be only a slight distance away, but it is like the vastness of heaven and earth. Countless world masters at the peak of their powers are unable to break through it and cannot achieve true eternal immortality. Countless talented immortals and even venerables have been trapped in such a bottleneck limit for endless years and cannot make any progress.
What are they missing?
Why is it that even though Lin Yan’s understanding of the laws progresses at a rapid pace, no one thinks he has the potential to become the master of the universe?
Because... those who can reach the level of being the overlord of the universe are all extremely talented. Under such a bottleneck, the degree of compliance with the laws is no longer meaningful.
"It's will!" Lin Yan said in a deep voice.
“Yes.” The Lord of Dusk Star looked at Lin Yan with approval. “As long as a creature is intelligent and wants to enter immortality, its will reach the immortal level. Otherwise, no matter how good its talent is or how high its compatibility with the laws is, it will be impossible to break through.”
"The same is true for the Lord of the Universe, the Master of the Universe."
Lin Yan nodded.
Just like the golden-horned beast is the darling of gold, many races have extraordinary talents in a certain law of the origin of the universe, but why are they stumped at the last threshold?
Because there must be more accumulation.
In order to break through to become immortal, venerable, or Lord of the Universe, many conditions need to be met. Comprehension of the laws is the last condition, but will... is the most critical one.
In fact.
Bloodlines are divided into different levels. Many people cannot become planetary level, many people cannot become cosmic level, and many people cannot become realm masters. Planetary level one to nine is the accumulation of energy, and planetary level to stellar level is the transition of life. How to achieve this transition?
Spirit and will!
In the core layer of the virtual universe company, there seems to be no such problem, that's only because they are a group of the top geniuses of human beings in the universe, but after reaching the immortal gods, it is still obvious.
Why did Luo Feng in the original novel rise miraculously?
Walk out of the Earth and into the universe, keep improving, go further and further on the road to becoming strong, and after practicing for more than ten epochs, you will become the master of the universe!
It must be admitted that the golden-horned beast, the demon-killing clan, and the Nine Nether Blood Sea clones played a big role in this. After all, talent is indeed very important, but for Luo Feng, the strongest thing has never been the understanding of the laws, but... will and character!
Those obstacles that could trap others for endless years seemed like a smooth road for him. Sometimes he might be excited, or moved, or watching the stars move, or fighting a life-and-death battle... In short, he might have a flash of inspiration at some point, and realize something, and then he would break through.
"So what the teacher means is..." Lin Yan understood something in his heart.
"His path was not wrong, and he even went further than others." The Lord of the Dusk Star said softly, "But as he continued to practice, his will and consciousness became more and more in line with the artistic conception of 'destroying the universe'. In fact... from an unknown time on, even his human emotions began to fade away, and he gradually forgot everything, becoming a deep and cold star."
Even the emotions that belonged to humans began to fade away, and gradually forgot everything, becoming a deep and cold star...
These words echoed endlessly in Lin Yan's ears.
At this moment.
His soul was shaken.
After practicing to the sixth level, you can transform yourself into a black hole, devouring everything, becoming comparable to the true master of the universe and standing at the top of the universe.
Those simple words seemed to come alive as they played in his mind.
When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you.
The Lord of Dusk Star cast his gaze on Lin Yan, and his bright eyes were filled with a power that warmed people's hearts: "Lin Yan, I respect all your choices, but... when you hold the universe in your heart, you are more than just a star."
…
Lin Yan vaguely understood that... rather than introducing the Star Prison Demon Lord to give Lin Yan some inspiration to overcome the difficulties in practicing "Black Hole Holy Body", it would be better to say that she hoped that Lin Yan could pay attention to the connection between strength and mind.
The heart, such an illusory concept, actually possesses extraordinary power.
Is the Star Prison Demon Lord wrong?
Nobody knows.
There are no roads in this world.
Life is born from the universe, relying on cultivation and understanding of various cosmic laws, so that life evolves and possesses powerful power.
They cannot judge right or wrong based on their perspective alone.
Lin Yan created the ultimate martial art "The Great Extinction Sword" based on the destructive mood of destroying the world, but... even a bloody and terrible ethnic war can cause many strong people to suffer mental breakdown and fall into madness, let alone the path he has chosen?
What is the reason for persistence?
What is great courage?
Becoming strong, becoming super strong, is everyone's dream, but behind the success, there are never just flowers and people praising your extraordinary talent and beauty, but what they cannot see... much more.
What the Lord of Dusk Star wanted Lin Yan to think about was whether he was prepared for this based on the previous experience of the "Lord of the Star Prison"?
…
On the extraterritorial battlefield, an E9-class spaceship is flying in the air.
Lin Yan's original plan was to go to the space shuttle point closest to the Yanji Continent and return to the 026 barracks base, but now that he was preparing to meet the Star Prison Demon Lord, he had to change his plan temporarily and leave the extraterritorial battlefield through the Kingdom of God.
"Fenghou, find a secluded and quiet place nearby." Lin Yan ordered.
"clear."
The spaceship flew quickly. The battlefield of the seventh star field in the extraterritorial battlefield was divided into several combat zones. In some combat zones, the density of strong men was much smaller, so the spaceship flew for more than two days and found an extremely secluded place.
Wow!
The hatch opens.
Lin Yan, wearing light golden battle armor, stepped out of the cabin alone, hovered in the air, and casually put the spaceship into the world ring.
whoosh!
It transformed into a golden stream of light and landed directly on a meteorite, and then drilled into the interior of the meteorite. There were traces of drilling in the cave inside, but judging from the breath, it should have happened a long, long time ago.
"A micro-detector scanned the caves in this meteorite... no life has been there for at least 100,000 years."
"Um."
Lin Yan nodded. The diameter of this meteorite is more than ten kilometers. Considering its material, even a world master would find it difficult to destroy it. It would be fine to use it as a temporary coordinate point.
A leaf of the Mo Yun vine flew out from his shoulder and landed on Lin Yan's palm. Then he flipped his hand and took out a space ring, put the leaf into the space ring, and then threw the space ring into a crack in the cave inside the meteorite.
This is considered a coordinate token.
As for why it is placed in the space ring, it is because... the immortal god's body is completely composed of immortal divine power. This leaf is naturally also a condensation of immortal divine power. If the detector detects... it is very easy to detect the energy reaction.
"Teleport to the Kingdom of God." Lin Yan's mind moved.
A dazzling light shone on his body, and the hazy light enveloped the surroundings, including Lin Yan.
call out!
Lin Yan instantly followed this beam of light space channel and entered the kingdom of God.
…
The Hunbing Secret Realm is located on the edge of the human territory. In terms of size, it is approximately equivalent to the Black Dragon Mountain star field. However, in terms of the degree of danger, even a cosmic master may perish if he enters.
"Ahead is our destination - the Eighteen Star Region Prison." The Lord of Dusk Star looked ahead and said softly.
That's right.
The legendary Eighteen Star Region Prison is not located in a certain star region, but in this Hunbing Secret Realm.
Lin Yan looked into the distance at the void, and saw that there was not a trace of light or dust between heaven and earth, just nothingness.
In the endless darkness, there stands a towering huge black pyramid, so high that it stretches as if it has existed since time immemorial. The black pyramid exudes endless power, as if it has existed since time immemorial!
This black pyramid is divided into 19 floors, and is tied with desolate black iron chains. The iron chains are simple and even rusty.
Around the towering pyramid, there are vast palace complexes suspended. The palaces are square, with some patrolling black-armored guards outside.
"This, is this a palace-like treasure?" Lin Yan was a little shocked.
In fact, you can figure it out if you think about it.
Almost all the people imprisoned in these eighteen star prisons are immortal gods, among whom there are quite a few who have reached the peak of the king realm or even the invincible king realm. Ordinary treasures cannot trap them at all. It is normal for someone like the Star Prison Demon Lord to have palace-type treasures or even high-level palace-type treasures.
"Yes, its real name should be 'Imitation Black Prison Tower'. It has the ability to attack, defend, and seal. Among ordinary palace treasures, it is top-notch, and its value is not lower than some high-level palace treasures." said the Lord of Dusk Star.
Imitation Black Prison Tower?
Lin Yan blinked.
"Well, there is indeed a more powerful treasure, called the Black Prison Tower, but it has nothing to do with our human race. In fact... even if all the treasures of our human race were added together, they could not match half of its value."
"This imitation may be made by them , or it may be something else. The mystery of the universe is always hard to fathom." The Lord of Dusk Star looked at Lin Yan and smiled, "When you stand at the top of the universe in the future, you will gradually come into contact with it."
Lin Yan nodded slightly.
He actually had some impression of the "Black Prison Tower". It was a supreme treasure that surpassed the pinnacle treasures, and it was arguably the most important flying palace. Its value could be imagined. It was now one of the most powerful holy land universes in the universe sea.
If it were in the period of the original ancestor, the original ancestor alone would be invincible in the universe, but now, the human race, which does not even have a powerful treasure, is really not good enough.
No matter what, even if it is an "imitation Black Prison Tower", the value of this palace treasure is still extremely high.
"This imitation Black Prison Tower is divided into 19 floors. The upper nine floors are the 'Upper Nine Prisons', and the lower nine floors are the 'Lower Nine Prisons'. The layouts of each floor are different. The further down you go, the larger the space becomes, the stronger and more terrifying the life forms that exist there become, and the worse the environment becomes." The Lord of the Dusk Star introduced, "And the Lord of the Star Prison is on the tenth floor, which is in the center and is also an unnamed floor."
"In the surrounding palace complexes, there are realm masters and immortal gods who handle specific affairs."
Lin Yan whispered: "Could it be..."
He didn't say it in the end.
The Lord of Dusk Star was silent for a moment, and said, "You can understand it this way."
"Although on the surface it was the Star Prison Demon Lord who suppressed the Eighteen Star Region Prison, he had been immersed in that state for a long, long time, and was detached from the world. However, as a top universe overlord, he would not get involved in many matters, so no one suspected anything."
"Even if something happens, his disciple 'Monumental Master' is capable of handling it."
A top cosmic overlord like the Star Prison Demon Lord is already very close to being the Lord of the Universe. If he were to deal with a Universe Lord, it would be simply a massacre. This behavior would cause public outrage. There is such a tacit understanding among all major forces.
Except in very rare cases, the top cosmic overlords are guarding the important territories of their tribes and will not go out easily.
Lin Yan looked at the endless and towering black pyramid from afar.
Thus, the existence that was once considered a taboo has come to the brink of real danger. In this deep and dark imitation black prison tower, will he transform or sink?
