Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent

After the Heart Shadow Sect arrived in Huyang City, they acted with incredible speed.

First, they occupied the majority of the caves in Chaos Area A, then they visited the Pavilion Master of Yan Feng Pavilion and Divine Lord Luo He. After appeasing these two significant sources of danger, they began the most crucial step of their plan—

Substantially taking control of the entire city!

While occupying the caves of the Five Great Families, they had already dispatched their forces to seize the three forbidden areas within the city.

“Rumble~~~” Five colossal mechanical secret treasures had already flown to one of the forbidden areas. The Huyang Legion stationed there had long since retreated, leaving only a few Huyang Guards behind.

“What do you intend to do?” The Huyang Guards nervously watched these five colossal mechanical secret treasures.

“Surrender completely, or die.” A voice descended from above, as the overwhelming presence of the five colossal mechanical secret treasures enveloped the entire forbidden area.

The Huyang Guards exchanged glances.

The generals and commanders had already retreated to the City Lord’s Mansion, leaving only ordinary Huyang Guards to defend the forbidden areas. The City Lord’s Mansion had no expectations that these ordinary guards could hold the forbidden areas; it was merely a tactic to mislead the enemy.

“We can’t possibly resist.”

The gap was too vast, so these ordinary Huyang Guards obediently surrendered.

Whoosh.

Soon, the group of Huyang Guards was captured and taken into a spatial secret treasure, while the five colossal mechanical secret treasures shrank and quickly burrowed into the forbidden area. With their strength, they swiftly dismantled the layers of defenses within the forbidden area.

“The array foundation of the forbidden area has long been dismantled, and the grand array of Huyang City can now only maintain its most basic power.”

“We haven’t even started our assault, and the Five Great Families have already dismantled the core of the grand array.” The five colossal mechanical secret treasures discovered that everything that could be dismantled in the City Lord’s Mansion had already been dismantled.

The core arrays of the three forbidden areas had been dismantled in advance, leaving only the ordinary arrays integrated throughout the city still operational. This reduced the grand array of Huyang City to only ten or twenty percent of its original power.

“Hurry up and set up the sect’s grand array.”

“Quick.”

From within the five colossal mechanical secret treasures, Eternal True Gods immediately flew out and swiftly began setting up the arrays according to plan. ṚÅ₦ǑʙĚŠ

The Heart Shadow Sect had multiple sect arrays, and as a former Divine King-level sect, their arrays were far more intricate than the grand array of Huyang City. The most advanced arrays even required a Chaos Overlord to drive them.

At this moment, they were setting up three simple sect arrays that could be arranged quickly.

Mobile arrays generally lacked the power of fixed arrays.

These three sect arrays, when combined, were only slightly stronger than the fixed grand array of Huyang City. However, in the event of a large-scale battle, the influence of these auxiliary arrays would be considerable.

The three sect arrays required seven locations to be set up, and the extensive areas of the forbidden zones were ideal for this purpose, so they were utilized.

…

Huyang City’s Chaos Area A resembled a massive ring encircling the City Lord’s Mansion.

At this moment, aside from the small “Divine Lord Luo He’s Cave” section, the entire ring had become the Heart Shadow Sect’s base.

“Sect Master, the Five Great Families have preemptively dismantled the core arrays of the three forbidden areas. The sect disciples are setting up the arrays at full speed; it won’t be long before they’re complete.” An elder in charge of arranging the sect arrays reported immediately.

“Be quick about it.” The Sect Master of the Heart Shadow Sect stood atop the highest mountain in Chaos Area A, surveying the surroundings. “Elder Yun Yi, take control of the four city gates immediately. From now on, no one is allowed to enter or leave.”

“Yes.”

Several elders were present, each leading a group of disciples.

Following a command, eight colossal mechanical secret treasures flew towards the four city gates. As they traveled, they even forcibly traversed space multiple times. With the weakening of Huyang City’s grand array, the spatial blockade had significantly diminished.

“The entire Huyang City could become a battlefield at any moment; we must leave quickly.”

“Let’s get out of this dangerous place first.”

Many cultivators sensed the danger and hurried toward the city gates.

Unfortunately, even with only ten to twenty percent of its power, Huyang City’s grand array made it nearly impossible for Eternal True Gods to forcibly traverse space. They had to fly slowly, and reaching the city gates would take some time.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.”

More and more cultivators left.

Suddenly, two colossal mechanical secret treasures traversed space and arrived at the east city gate.

“The city gates are sealed!” A terrifying presence enveloped the entire east city gate, and a darkness descended, capturing the guards stationed there.

“Not good, the gates are sealed.”

Cultivators still on their way, who hadn’t yet reached the gates, saw this scene from afar and felt a chill in their hearts.

Meanwhile, those who had already made it outside the city breathed a sigh of relief.

“They acted so quickly?” Outside the city, the leader of the Zhu Clan, Zhu Hu, watched the scene from afar. “I managed to escape with fifty percent of the clan members, but for the rest… it’s going to be troublesome.”

The Zhu Clan had been rooted in Huyang City for far too long, with countless clan members embedded in every industry throughout the city.

Whether in the Huyang Guard, the Huyang Legion, or among the members of various forces, the Zhu Clan’s descendants were everywhere. Even if they wanted to escape, Zhu Hu could only gather the countless clan members already within the family’s cave residence and take them into the cave treasure. As for those scattered throughout the city, there was no time to gather them.

“Among the Zhu Clan’s Eternal True Gods, only two remain in the city: Zhu You and Zhu Fuqing. One is well-connected, with many friends, and the other is a member of a significant force’s division. They should be able to protect themselves.” Zhu Hu thought, “With the two of them, they should be able to protect more of our clan.”

After all, many of the clan members who made up fifty percent of the clan were elites, and the Zhu Clan could not afford to abandon them.

“I’ll have to rely on Zhu You and Fuqing, those two children.” Zhu Hu sighed, feeling more powerless than ever.

Facing the Heart Shadow Sect, there wasn’t even the ability to resist.

“A sect this powerful… even the strongest Eternal True God in Yuguo can only try to save their own life.” Zhu Hu then traversed the void, quickly leaving, heading toward the neighboring Chaos State.

…

Eight colossal mechanical secret treasures arrived at the four city gates, sealing them completely!

Once the sect arrays were fully set up, the dark array entirely enveloped Huyang City, sealing both the skies and the earth, leaving no gaps.

The former four city gates were also shrouded in dark light, sealed and no longer accessible.

“It’s done.”

“We can return now.” The guards at the four city gates, seeing the vast sect array overhead, began to leave.

The sect array’s complete seal made it impossible to escape.

Forcing a way out?

In the entire city, perhaps only Divine Lord Luo He had the strength to do so.

The Heart Shadow Sect even hoped that Divine Lord Luo He would leave on his own!

“This isn’t the grand array of Huyang City.”

“The Heart Shadow Sect has set up an array, covering the entire city?”

All the Eternal True Gods in Huyang City noticed the change in the array. With their experience, they immediately recognized the difference between this dark array and the original grand array of Huyang City.

“It’s getting more and more lively.” At Yan Feng Pavilion, Pavilion Master Di Chu Yu leisurely watched the scene.

During his travels across the Origin Continent, he had witnessed many conflicts.

The turmoil in Huyang City was merely a small ripple in his long life of cultivation.

“Our Yan Feng Pavilion is detached from all sides, but it’s also not easy to interfere in wars,” said the Vice Pavilion Master with a gray mist body.

“If every branch could interfere in wars as they pleased, Yan Feng Pavilion wouldn’t be able to remain detached.” Di Chu Yu replied.

“Pavilion Master, the Heart Shadow Sect had just arrived, and you comprehended the laws of chaos. It seems the Heart Shadow Sect is your lucky star.” The Vice Pavilion Master smiled.

“Hahaha…”

Di Chu Yu laughed heartily, clearly in high spirits.

“After countless eons, and even with the guidance of secret tomes, I have only now reached the Chaos Realm.” Di Chu Yu sighed, “Reaching the Chaos Realm in the Laws lineage is incredibly difficult.”

The secret tome he cultivated was a royal secret of the Ancient Flame Kingdom, far more powerful than the ordinary Divine King-level inheritance.

For most, the path from Eternal True God to Chaos Overlord involved continuous accumulation, eventually leading to a breakthrough. However, in the royal family of the Ancient Flame Kingdom, there was a detailed guide that made the breakthrough process significantly easier.

For instance, Luo Feng’s path was one of aimless accumulation. He possessed the Will of a Divine King, the Perfect Divine Body, with its immense soul, and had insights into both the Origin Path of Life and the Origin Path of Destruction.

He had comprehended more Chaos Realm techniques than Di Chu Yu, yet still could not break through.

“I had the guidance of the secret tome, with nine complementary Chaos Realm techniques, and with many resources to aid me, I only

now broke through.” Di Chu Yu said, “I wonder when Luo He will break through.”

Reaching the Chaos Realm in the Laws lineage was the minimum threshold to be invited as a guest of the Emperor Chu Lineage.

“He has accumulated a lot as well, but breaking through to the Chaos Realm requires a bit of luck,” the Vice Pavilion Master said. “By the way, Pavilion Master, when do you plan to return? When will you report your breakthrough to the clan?”

“No rush,” Di Chu Yu replied. “I have already reported to the Ancestor. The Ancestor advised me to keep it confidential for now. He will send resources, and once my Divine Body is fully grown and my strength is completely consolidated, I will return.”

The Vice Pavilion Master smiled, “Whatever the Ancestor instructs, you must follow.”

In the royal family of the Ancient Flame Kingdom, those who could cultivate the ‘Infinite Divine Body’ were considered the elites of the clan. Throughout countless eras, the Emperor Chu Lineage had accumulated nearly a hundred of them, each with the privilege of direct communication with the Ancestor.

The Vice Pavilion Master, on the other hand, held a relatively lower status within the clan. Even if he was a powerful Eternal True God within the bloodline cultivation system, there were countless others like him in the royal family, and naturally, he didn’t have the privilege to contact the Ancestor.

The Ancestor of the Emperor Chu Lineage was one of the Emperors of the Ancient Flame Kingdom, named ‘Di Chu’!

“The Infinite Divine Body at the Chaos Realm is even more magnificent and grows slowly. Moreover, I need to cultivate secret techniques to consolidate my strength.” Di Chu Yu said, “I hope Luo He can break through before I leave. It would be nice to bring him back with me.”

“Within one or two eras, you should be able to fully consolidate your strength, Pavilion Master. There’s no way Luo He will break through so quickly,” the Vice Pavilion Master said. “Being stuck at a bottleneck for thousands or tens of thousands of eras is normal.”

“If I have consolidated my strength and he hasn’t broken through, I’ll leave him a communication talisman and we will return first.” Di Chu Yu glanced at the chaos in the city, then entered a small building.
