Swallowed Star: Drawing Talents

City Lord's Mansion, Chaos Ruins.

On the endless vast land, the Chaos City Lord is sitting cross-legged among the corpses.

"Hmm?"

'A message directly from the virtual universe system? Could it be some important information?'

The Chaos City Lord opened his eyes, and a wisp of consciousness quickly entered the virtual universe.

Virtual Universe, Chaos Temple.

Inside the Chaos Hall surrounded by endless airflow, the Chaos City Lord appeared abruptly. A light curtain lit up in front of him, and a young man was seen venturing through the Illusion Sea on the light curtain.

"This is..."

The Chaos City Lord looked at the light curtain, a look of surprise on his face.

Illusion Sea Plane.

Rumble~~

The black sea roared, the waves set off dozens of meters of giant waves, lapping against the cliff shore again and again.

At the deepest point of the Illusion Sea, on the edge of the twenty-first island, an old man covered in golden yellow robes and black scale armor is sitting cross-legged.

He is the guardian of the entire Illusion Sea.

"Hmm?"

The old man with his face covered in black鳞甲(鱗甲: scale armor) suddenly opened his old eyes, looked at the youth venturing through the Illusion Sea in the distance, and sighed in a low voice.

"A universe-level little guy actually venturing through twenty Illusion Sea islands in a row. This is completely an unprecedented miracle in the entire history of the human race."

The twenty-one islands of the Illusion Sea are actually very similar to the twenty-one levels of the Tongtian Bridge, both corresponding to the universe Venerable level, except that one tests the perception of laws, and the other tests consciousness and will.

Consciousness and will are very illusory and difficult to grasp concepts. In terms of will strength alone, a apprentice level may not necessarily be worse than a domain lord level powerhouse, but consciousness strength is definitely far inferior to a domain lord level.

And the Illusion Sea not only tests will, it also tests consciousness at the same time.

Every Illusion Sea island is permeated with a terrible consciousness pressure. The further back, the more terrible the consciousness pressure becomes. From the tenth island onwards, it is the consciousness pressure of an immortal god, and the twenty-first island is even at the universe Venerable level.

A little guy who is only at the universe level can actually resist the pressure of the twentieth island.

Incredible!

Illusion Sea, twentieth island.

In the distance, a touch of white gradually appears in the dark sea, revealing a deeper island. Only by venturing through an island illusion will the next island appear in the Illusion Sea.

"Huff~ Huff~"

"This Illusion Sea is really powerful. The further back, the more terrible the consciousness pressure becomes. I wonder if I can venturing through the twenty-first island."

On the sandy ground of the island, Hong is panting heavily. He feels that he has been squeezed to the extreme in venturing through the Illusion Sea, and even his spiritual consciousness has felt a trace of fatigue.

Every time you enter an illusion island, the first thing you meet is a bombardment of consciousness pressure, like a mountain smashing hard on your consciousness.

It is purely a contest of consciousness strength. If your consciousness is smashed hard, you will feel dizzy and confused. In the dizzy and confused state, you will fall into an illusion and lose without knowing it.

'It's a pity that my third level of mental state has just been entered and has not truly reached perfection.'

Hong thought, if the third level of mental state is perfect, he will not fear the Illusion Sea consciousness pressure. The heart is infinitely large, the heart encompasses everything. No matter how strong the pressure is, it can be encompassed.

My heart is infinite.

Naturally, it is impossible to be oppressed and collapse. "I also want to..."

"See my limit!"

Hong instantly rushed into the sky, turning into a stream of light and flying towards the twenty-first island.

Whoosh~

The Chaos City Lord appeared in the sky, overlooking the endless Illusion Sea below.

"Senior Brother!"

A figure walked out of thin air. He was simply covered in a black coat, and inside the black coat was a strange silver-black armor.

With white jade-like skin, a bright bald head, and extremely strange and complex black secret纹, his eyes looked at someone—

It was like a venomous snake in the night spitting its core behind someone's neck, and even the surrounding time and space were affected by him, and the entire time and space fell into a strange atmosphere.

"Junior Brother, I didn't expect you to come!"

The Chaos City Lord was a little surprised to see the person coming. The person coming was his junior brother, the Dark Lord, one of the hidden foundations of the human race.

The Dark Lord is extremely low-key, rarely intervening in the affairs of the human race, rarely appearing, and few people even know of his existence.

"This little guy is fated with me!"

In the sky above the Illusion Sea, the Dark Lord looked at the youth venturing through the Illusion Sea below, then turned to look at the Chaos City Lord with a sly smile.

"Senior brother, it seems you will have one more nephew, you have to prepare a gift for this meeting!"

The Dark Lord walks the illusion martial artist path, and every move contains illusion attacks, making it impossible to defend against.

This little guy's mind cultivation realm is extremely high, and almost any illusion is ineffective against him. His best cultivation route is indeed the illusion martial artist path."

However, his cultivation journey will be very long."

The Chaos City Lord nodded. Although Hong's law comprehension is considered good, it is hundreds or thousands of times worse than those peerless geniuses.

Comprehending laws has extremely high requirements for laws compatibility. Some people's comprehension speed is hundreds or thousands of times faster than others because the compatibility is higher and the comprehension is clearer.

Mind cultivation realm is high, it only slightly assists the cultivation speed, which can improve it by two or three times, but comprehending laws and geniuses will still be hundreds of times a thousand times different.

Slow is not terrible, as long as there is always progress, what is terrible is a sudden stagnation.

The Dark Lord said that a true powerhouse, in addition to talent, comprehension, secret methods and other internal and external foundations, what is more important is a powerhouse's heart.

will is as firm as one!

A genius with good talent and excellent resource nurturing, if he also has a terrible will, then this genius only has two paths: either he will go to a dead end and fall, or he will become a super powerhouse!

"Although his talent is a little worse, his temperament and will are firm enough. If he enters my sect, at least I can train a universe Venerable in due time."

The Dark Lord said lightly that he had personally trained a universe master after all. In the virtual universe company lineage, besides Yuan, he is the most qualified to teach disciples.

Illusion Sea, twenty-first island.

A stream of light fell on the sand of the island. The illusion of the twenty-first island came with unparalleled terrible pressure.

"Boom!"

It was as if the sky was collapsing and falling, directly bombarding Hong's consciousness. Almost in an instant, Hong's consciousness was completely scattered.

Twenty-first island.

Failure!

In the face of this consciousness intensity comparable to a universe Venerable, no matter how firm and unshakable your will is, it will be directly blasted into slag like an ant.

"The will is good!"

"But the gap between consciousness is too big."

In the sky above the Illusion Sea, the Chaos City Lord who witnessed all this shook his head.

The strength of consciousness depends on the strength of spiritual power, brain region width, etc. The higher the strength, the stronger the consciousness will be.

For example, a domain lord, even if his will strength is very average, can easily kill a planet level star level just by emitting the consciousness pressure.

This is the difference in consciousness. "Seal this message!"

The Chaos City Lord's voice instantly passed through the endless mist of the Illusion Sea and reached the ears of the black scale armor old man.

"Yes!"

The black鱗甲(鳞甲: scale armor) old man responded.

"Hmm!"

Just after explaining all this, the Chaos City Lord suddenly lightly了一声(一声: a sound), and then looked at the Dark Lord beside him.

"Haha, junior brother."

It seems you will have one more nephew!"
