Swallowing the Stars: Starting from Late Bloomers

Chapter 016: The Madman in White Robes

Just as Lu Qingshan was following Kano to Purple Water Star, a major event was also taking place in the universe that was enough to affect the entire cosmic landscape.

Human territory, primeval realms, and virtual space.

Amidst a cloud of mist, majestic palaces rise and fall.

Inside the most central, magnificent palace, sat more than ten imposing figures.

If any powerful human beings were to appear here, they would surely recognize these people as the most powerful beings in the human race, the super beings who lead the human race across the universe.

"Original Ancestor, everyone!"

A burly, savage-looking man with long, flowing hair and a sharp aura spoke up: "Now that I've broken through to the realm of the strongest in the universe, and my human race has gained several universe lords like Bingfeng and Yanshan, I think we can now continue to expand our territory!"

"That's right!"

A monstrous beast with a ferocious appearance, covered in intricate scales, and three sharp horns on its head also spoke up: "With the terrifying strength of our progenitor and the current prosperity of our human race, it's only right that our territory surpasses that of the demon race!"

"yes!"

Another figure, clad in cyan armor and wearing a cloak covered in intricate runes, spoke up as well: "Ever since the Starry Sky Beast Ancestor broke through to the realm of the strongest beings in the universe and led the Starry Sky Beast lineage to break away from the Demon Race, the Demon Race's strength has been greatly diminished!"

"Although they now have two of the strongest beings in the universe, neither the Demon Beast Ancestor nor the Demon Tremor Ancestor are protected by supreme treasures, so they certainly wouldn't dare to oppose our human race!"

"Gentlemen!"

Just then, the white-robed man sitting in the main seat suddenly spoke.

After the white-robed man spoke, everyone around him immediately fell silent in respect, for this white-robed man was the true pillar of the human race!

The white-robed man glanced around before speaking quickly, "I know everyone wants to expand the territory of our human race once again, but I suggest we wait a little longer!"

"My cultivation has reached a crucial point. Once I successfully break through, the entire primordial universe will revere our human race!"

"I was initially worried that I might fail, leading to the decline of my human race. But now that the Giant Axe has broken through to the level of the strongest in the universe, even if I fail, it will continue to protect my human race!"

"teacher!"

"Original Ancestor!"

After hearing the white-robed man's words, all the powerful figures around him couldn't help but speak up and offer their advice.

One of the men, dressed in a golden robe and with patches of blue scales on his head, quickly spoke up: "Teacher, we are still in the early stages of the evolution of the primordial universe, and you are already invincible throughout the cosmic sea. Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Isn't the purpose of our cultivation to continuously become stronger, and then to see the scenery from higher places?"

The man in white robes quickly spoke up, saying, "In fact, if it weren't for my clan, I would have already tried to take this final step!"

"Now that the Giant Axe has broken through and even created an eighth-tier secret technique, even if I fail, it still has enough power to protect my human race!"

"Moreover, my strength is much greater than before, and I've even created a new and powerful secret technique, so there's a good chance I'll succeed!"

Seeing that the crowd was about to try to persuade him again, the man in white robes immediately said, "Alright, my mind is made up. There's no need to try to change it!"

After hearing the white-robed man's words, the crowd naturally had nothing more to say.

After all, the entire human race owes its current status to the white-robed man. Otherwise, even if the strongest being in the universe were to emerge, it would be difficult to break into the core territory of the universe, which is occupied by the three super powers of the demon race, the insect race, and the mechanical race, and get a share of the spoils!

……

The primordial universe, a silent and vast void.

At this moment, a man in white robes was sitting cross-legged in the endless void, quietly adjusting his state.

Not far from him, a burly, wild man with long, flowing hair and a towering figure in a golden robe were silently waiting.

"Giant Axe, Chaos!"

The white-robed man slowly opened his eyes, then looked at the two figures not far away: "Although I'm somewhat confident about this breakthrough, I can't guarantee success!"

"If I were merely warned by the primordial will of the universe as before, that would be one thing. But if I were to perish at the hands of the primordial will of the universe, then my human race would depend on you few!"

"Original Ancestor, you can rest assured!"

After numerous unsuccessful attempts to persuade him, the giant axe finally spoke up: "If you fail, I will definitely stand with Chaos and the others to protect our human race!"

"Teacher, you will definitely succeed!" the man in the golden robe beside him said solemnly.

"alright!"

With a wave of his hand, the white-robed man produced an object resembling a statue.

There is an artificial hill, a lake, and a wooden house here!

The mountains, water, and houses look incredibly harmonious, like a true work of art.

"This treasure is called 'Pocket Universe'!"

The white-robed man continued, "This is a supreme treasure that I painstakingly crafted. It contains the initial laws governing the universe. Once fully unleashed, it's equivalent to a 'simplified' miniature universe!"

"The influence range of this treasure can reach up to one light-year. Within its controlled area, its wielder can instantly unleash two top-tier sixth-order attacks using its power!"

"Such power is nothing in the vast ocean of space, but in the primordial universe, it is more precious than a supreme treasure of the domain category!"

"With this treasure protecting us, even if two or three of the strongest beings in the universe were to attack our human race in this primordial universe, they would likely suffer a great loss!"

"However, remember that this treasure can only unleash the power of a top-tier sixth-order item in the Cosmic Sea, so try your best not to bring it there!"

"Chaos, from now on you will wield this treasure. If our human race truly faces a life-or-death crisis, perhaps we can rely on it to turn the tide!"

After saying this, the white-robed man waved his hand, and the 'Pocket Universe' in his hand flew towards the golden-robed man beside him.

At this moment, after receiving the palm-sized universe, the man in the golden robe immediately said, "Teacher, I will keep this treasure for you for now, but you will definitely succeed!"

Don't worry!

The man in white robes nodded slightly, then looked at another burly savage with long, flowing hair: "Giant Axe, if I perish this time, you shall take control of the most powerful treasure I possess!"

"Although you only created an eighth-level secret technique after experiencing the Chaos Evolution, with the protection of the supreme treasure, even that guy Divine Eye can't do anything to you. You are fully capable of protecting my human race!"

Upon hearing this, the giant savage with flowing hair nodded solemnly and said in the same way, "Ancestor, you will definitely succeed!"

After completing all this, the man in white robes quickly looked up at the distant starry sky.

"I wonder if my ingenious technique will allow me to successfully possess this primordial universe?"

After this thought flashed through his mind, a trace of divine power immediately emanated from the white-robed man's body.

These divine powers permeated the surrounding void, clearly indicating that they had begun to unleash a sophisticated secret technique. Strands of profound mystery were seen continuously merging into the surrounding space-time and then spreading out towards an incomparably distant region.

Then...

Rumble!

An ancient and majestic aura suddenly emanated from the white-robed man, inspiring awe in all who beheld him.

But the man in white robes showed no reverence and continued to use his exquisite and unparalleled secret technique.

The endless runes spread to all parts of the vast universe, even entering the mysterious origin of the primordial universe.

That is the core of the entire primordial universe, and the place closest to the original will of the primordial universe.

Rumble!

For a moment, the heavens and earth trembled.

At this moment, super beings in various regions of the primordial universe turned to look in the direction of the white-robed man, their eyes filled with shock, for they had already sensed the boundless rage of the primordial universe's original will!

These super-beings knew very well that in that direction, life forms that were utterly loathed by the primordial will of the universe had appeared.

"What... what's going on?"

"That area seems to be the territory of a human race!"

"Could it be that the Primordial Ancestor angered the primordial will of the universe?"

In an instant, all sorts of thoughts flashed through the minds of countless powerful individuals.
