RNP Chapter 624 Breakthrough to the Lord of the Universe
Chapter 624 Breakthrough to the Lord of the Universe
The giant tower was entirely black, its surface engraved with countless mysterious runes, radiating a suffocating suppressive power.
"We were originally going to deal with other races, but you humans are courting death!" Demon God Yun Hong gritted his teeth, his tone as cold as ice. "Suppress them!!!"
The black tower swelled in the wind, instantly transforming into a colossal mountain that blotted out the sky, and slammed down upon the Taiyun Palace. A terrifying pressure swept over, and the surrounding space began to distort and deform, as if it were about to be completely crushed by this force.
Inside the Taiyun Palace, Chu Yang stared solemnly at the rapidly approaching black tower, his heart sinking.
"A top-tier suppression-type treasure? This is troublesome."
The Lord of False Gold also turned pale, desperately dodging as he manipulated the Taiyun Palace.
His divine power was also greatly depleted, and after a series of fierce battles, several universe lords were covered in wounds.
However, the suppressive power of the black tower was too strong, and Taiyun Palace's speed slowed down significantly, as if it were stuck in a quagmire and unable to move.
"Lord of the Void Gold, how long can this Taiyun Palace hold out?" Chu Yang asked in a deep voice, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes.
"It can only last for half an hour at most. This suppressive treasure is too powerful, and I can hardly withstand it." The voice of the Lord of Void Gold carried a hint of helplessness.
Chu Yang frowned. Half an hour was too short! The Demon God Yun Hong clearly wouldn't let them off easily. Once Taiyun Palace was suppressed, they would be completely trapped.
"Is there any way to escape this suppression?" Chu Yang asked urgently.
The Lord of Void Gold gave a wry smile: "Unless there are other suppression treasures of the same level, or the strongest being in the universe intervenes, it is simply impossible to get rid of them."
"The giant axe won't arrive for another half a day. By the time it arrives, we'll probably all be suppressed by this Cloud Flood Demon God! The Chaos City Lord isn't going to be able to deal with his opponent anytime soon either. Instead, he's been entangled by his opponent and can't come to our aid for the time being!" Dragon Lord shouted anxiously.
Seeing that the others were helpless, Chu Yang made a firm decision!
"No, the only option now is to break through!"
The atmosphere inside the Taiyun Hall was more tense than ever before.
Chu Yang sat cross-legged in the center, surrounded by countless flowing starlight.
He closed his eyes, his steady breathing revealing a resolute determination: "Gentlemen, I entrust the time ahead to you all."
The Lord of Illusory Gold's pupils constricted, and he exclaimed in shock, "Chu Yang! You—you want to break through to the level of a Universe Lord? Now? Are you insane?!"
"Mad?" Chu Yang chuckled softly, his eyes flashing with a cold light. "No! Actually, I could have broken through to become a Universe Lord long ago, but because I've been honing my will, it's now at its strongest stage. It's time to break through and become a Universe Lord!"
"Lord of All Laws, you..." The Lord of Dragons was dumbfounded. In fact, everyone knew that Chu Yang had a deep understanding of the laws, but breaking through to become the Lord of the Universe was not so simple!
"Trust me." Chu Yang took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. "This is our only way to survive!" He didn't have time to explain too much. At this critical moment of life and death, he could only take a gamble.
Seeing that Chu Yang was determined, the Lord of Void Gold stopped trying to dissuade him, and simply gritted his teeth and said, "Fine! We'll risk our lives to buy you time!"
The Taiyun Palace trembled violently. The Lord of Void Gold mobilized all his remaining divine power to barely maintain the operation of the Taiyun Palace and desperately resist the suppression of the black giant tower.
While it's called a breakthrough, this breakthrough is actually at the level of laws. His divine kingdom is still in the primordial universe, so it doesn't count as a true breakthrough to become a universe master.
Chu Yang had already mastered the law of time; now he only lacked the law of space.
When Chu Yang released the suppression of his own laws, his insights into the laws of space immediately surged into his mind.
Previously, in order to suppress his realm, Chu Yang had kept his understanding of the laws of space at the realm master level, but now, he has completely let go!
"Rumble..."
As if the universe had just begun and chaos had exploded, Chu Yang's inner world underwent earth-shattering changes.
The once tranquil power of spatial laws now surged and roared like a raging river, wreaking havoc within his body.
A series of profound spatial laws flashed through his mind: spatial folding, spatial cutting, spatial teleportation... the mysteries of all kinds of spatial laws surged into his consciousness like a tide.
The space around Chu Yang's body began to distort and deform, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.
The space inside the Taiyun Palace began to become unstable. The Lord of Void Gold's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly strengthened his control over the Taiyun Palace, barely managing to stabilize the space.
"This... just how many spatial laws has this kid comprehended?!" The Lord of Void Gold was shocked. The spatial law fluctuations emanating from Chu Yang were even stronger than his own!
Time passed second by second, and Chu Yang's aura grew stronger and stronger, while the fluctuations of the spatial laws became more and more intense.
"Snap!"
With a crisp sound, it seemed as if something inside Chu Yang's body shattered. Immediately afterward, a vast and boundless power of spatial laws erupted from his body, sweeping across the entire Taiyun Palace.
The Taiyun Palace trembled violently, as if it would be torn apart by this force at any moment. The Lord of Void Gold was pale, and he did his best to maintain the stability of the Taiyun Palace.
"It's done!" Chu Yang suddenly opened his eyes, and two beams of light shot out, as if they were about to pierce through the void.
Outside the Taiyun Palace, the Demon God Yunhong, controlling the giant black tower, pressed closer and closer.
"What are these human universe lords up to?" He sensed the unusual fluctuations within the Taiyun Palace and felt a vague unease in his heart.
"Hmph, no matter what tricks you play, you will not escape death!" Yun Hong, the Demon God, sneered and increased his divine power output, making the suppressive power of the black giant tower even more terrifying.
Chu Yang was confident in breaking the deadlock because after his breakthrough, he could use the laws of space without any hindrance, and the Zhou Tian Xing Dou treasure set would fully reveal its power!
The Lord of the Universe is also known as the Lord of Laws. The school of thought that Chu Yang follows is the path of laws. Once he mastered the Law of Space, he immediately comprehended all ten basic fundamental laws.
Even a small portion has already completed the fusion.
If this were placed on the Origin Continent, Chu Yang's progress on the path of laws would already be comparable to some Void True Gods.
Chu Yang slowly stood up, and the dazzling starlight surged like a tide, enveloping his entire body.
A vast and boundless power of fusion laws emanated from his body, causing the entire Taiyun Palace to tremble violently. The Lord of Void Gold and the others were stunned by this sudden pressure, and their expressions all changed.
"This...this is the aura of a fifth-tier Universe Lord!" Dragon Lord exclaimed in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief. "He...he actually broke through!"
"His breakthrough to the fifth-tier Universe Lord and the Lord of All Laws is truly profound!"
Chu Yang's gaze sharpened as he swept his eyes over the crowd, and he said in a deep voice, "Gentlemen, you still need to lend me a hand!"
Before he finished speaking, his divine power surged wildly, unleashing the full power of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Supreme Treasure Set.
Three hundred and sixty-five stars suddenly lit up with dazzling light, spinning rapidly around Chu Yang, forming a magnificent vortex of starlight.
The galactic vortex continued to expand, eventually merging perfectly with the Taiyun Palace to form a massive star protective shield that enveloped the entire Taiyun Palace.
The Zhou Tian Xing Dou Supreme Treasure is a very special treasure, and at this moment its power has been fully unleashed.
"Rumble..."
The oppressive force of the black tower slammed into the star-protecting shield, producing a deafening roar. Space distorted violently, as if it were about to collapse and shatter at any moment.
Outside the Taiyun Palace, the Demon God Yunhong was greatly alarmed upon seeing this.
He never expected that Chu Yang could break through to the realm of the Lord of the Universe in such a short time, and he never expected that the power of the Zhou Tian Star Array would be so terrifying.
"Damn humans! What kind of supreme treasure is this?!" Demon God Yun Hong gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with ferocity. "I refuse to believe you can withstand my suppression!"
He frantically channeled his divine power, intensifying his control over the black tower. The tower's suppressive force became even more terrifying, crashing down on the Star Guardian Shield like a tidal wave.
Chu Yang's expression was solemn as he continuously changed hand seals, manipulating the power of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou (a system of celestial bodies). A continuous stream of stellar power surged forth to counteract the suppressive power of the black giant tower.
The two sides were locked in a stalemate, and the space continued to vibrate, emitting a series of buzzing sounds.
Inside the Taiyun Palace, the Lord of Void Gold and the others gazed at the star-protected shield that was fighting against the black giant tower, and a glimmer of hope ignited in their hearts.
"Chu Yang, you must hold on!" The Lord of Void Gold prayed silently in his heart.
"boom!"
Another loud bang was heard, and the suppressive power of the black tower suddenly increased several times. The Star Guardian Shield trembled violently, but ultimately it still managed to withstand the attack.
The Demon God Yun Hong bombarded the area several more times, and although the Star Guardian Shield trembled violently, it remained intact.
What's even stranger is that this treasure actually resisted his suppressive treasure!
Yun Hong, the Demon God, had a gloomy expression and cursed inwardly.
The defensive power of this Zhou Tianxing Dou Supreme Treasure far exceeded his expectations.
"Damn humans, they actually had this kind of trump card!"
Chu Yang stood in the center of the star vortex, and the surrounding starlight seemed to be an extension of his endless life.
His gaze fell silently on Yun Hong, as if looking into the depths of the other's heart through a stagnant pool.
"Hmph!" Yun Hong, the Demon God, finally let out a cold snort, and with a wave of his right hand, the black giant tower returned to his back and floated like a shooting star.
"Yun Hong, are you scared?" A hoarse but mocking voice interrupted his mutterings. It was the Lord of Dragon Journey, whose divine body was now less than fifty percent intact, but a victorious smile appeared on his face.
"My clan's giant axe is about to arrive, Cloud Flood Demon God, is that all the tricks you have up your sleeve?"
The Lord of Dragons' gaze was chilling, his sneer carrying an oppressive force: "I advise you to surrender now! Continuing to fight like a cornered beast will only lead to the demise of the Cloudwing Beast clan along with you."
Yun Hong, the Demon God, was ashen-faced. As the strongest being in the universe, he was powerless against a group of universe lords and had even killed three of his own clan's universe lords. How could he swallow this insult?
The Dragon Lord's mocking smile was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart.
"Good! Good! Good!" Yun Hong, the Demon God, laughed in fury, uttering three "good"s in succession. "The humiliation of today will be repaid a hundredfold in the future!"
He was filled with rage, but he also knew that it was not the right time to stay.
The defensive power of this Zhou Tianxing Dou Supreme Treasure is beyond imagination; it cannot be broken through in a short period of time.
If the Lord of the Giant Axe arrives, he will be attacked from both sides. If the more than ten Universe Lords, including the Lord of Chaos City, arrive, then he will be in real danger.
Just as he was figuring out how to escape, a faint fluctuation of divine thought entered his mind. This was an urgent message from his clone left in Flowing Cloud Valley.
"What?! Only two left?!" Demon God Yun Hong's expression changed drastically, his anger instantly replaced by terror. Those left behind in Flowing Cloud Valley were the last four Universe Lords of the Cloud-Winged Beast Clan—his last trump card! Now, only two remained. How could he accept this?
"Damn humans! How dare you..." Yun Hong, the Demon God, gritted his teeth, wishing he could devour Chu Yang and the other humans alive.
But he knew in his heart that saying anything now would be of no use. The situation in Flowing Cloud Valley was critical, and he had to rush back to provide support immediately, otherwise the Cloudwing Beast clan would truly be doomed!
"Retreat!" Yun Hong, the Demon God, roared, ignoring Chu Yang and the others, and turned to fly towards Liuyun Valley.
"Hahaha... Old man Yun Hong, you've finally met your match!" Upon seeing this, the Lord of Dragon Journey burst into laughter, his tone full of sarcasm.
Chu Yang watched Yun Hong, the Demon God, flee in a disheveled state, and a slight sneer appeared on his lips.
"Phew..." Chu Yang let out a long breath. The battle just now, though seemingly easy, had actually been extremely taxing. If it weren't for the extraordinary nature of the Zhou Tian Star Treasure, it would have been hard to say who would have emerged victorious today.
The Lord of Void Gold and the Lord of Desolate Mirror also flew over. Both of them had suffered severe damage to their divine bodies, their faces were pale, and their auras were weak.
With a thought, Chu Yang summoned the Zhou Tian Star Treasure, a vast galaxy-like treasure, which transformed into a stream of light and entered his body. He looked at the Lord of Void Gold and the Lord of Desolate Mirror; although the two were trying their best to maintain the demeanor of powerful figures, their injuries could not be concealed.
"You two have worked hard." Chu Yang's voice carried a hint of fatigue, but also a sense of relief.
The Lord of False Gold waved his hand and said with a wry smile, "Finally, we've forced this old guy to retreat. This Cloud Flood Demon God is really troublesome." As he spoke, he couldn't help but cough a few times, and a trace of golden blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
The Lord of the Desolate Mirror nodded, his face pale: "If it weren't for the Zhou Tian Star Treasure, I'm afraid today..." He didn't finish his sentence, but the danger was self-evident.
The Lord of Dragons laughed heartily, patting Chu Yang on the shoulder: "Brother Chu Yang, your treasure is truly amazing! Even that old fellow Yun Hong couldn't do anything about it!" His eyes gleamed. "Next, we should discuss how to completely eliminate the Cloudwing Beast clan!"
Chu Yang pondered for a moment and said, "I plan to go back to the Primal Universe first."
"Back to the Primal Universe?" The Dragon Lord was taken aback. "Now is the perfect time to kick a man when he's down. You're going back now..."
"My divine body needs to break through," Chu Yang explained. "Only by advancing my divine body can I unleash even greater power."
The Lord of False Gold and the Lord of Desolate Mirror exchanged a glance, both expressing their understanding.
Chu Yang continued, "Leave the matter of Flowing Cloud Valley to the Chaos City Lord and the others. Luo Feng is there too; I believe they can handle it."
Although the Lord of Dragons was somewhat reluctant, he knew that Chu Yang was right. He sighed, "Alright, then be careful."
After bidding farewell to everyone, Chu Yang tore through space and headed towards the primordial universe.
As for the Lord of Void Gold and his group, after resting for a while, they also headed towards Flowing Cloud Valley. (End of Chapter)
