Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

taking real control over the entire city!

While they occupied the cave mansions of the Five Great Families, they had already dispatched their subordinates to seize the three major forbidden areas within the city.

"Boom boom boom~~~" Five super-large Mechanical Secret Treasures had already flown to one of the forbidden areas, from which the Huyang Legion had already retreated, leaving only some Huyang Guards still defending it.

"What are you trying to do?" the Huyang Guards asked nervously as they watched the five super-large Mechanical Secret Treasures.

"Surrender unconditionally, or die," a voice came down from above as the imposing presence of the five super-large Mechanical Secret Treasures enveloped the entire forbidden area.

The Huyang Guards looked at each other.

The generals and commanders had already retreated to the city owner's mansion. The defenders of the forbidden area were just ordinary Huyang Guards. The city owner's mansion had no expectation that these ordinary guards could hold the forbidden area; they only hoped to confuse the enemy.

"We are all just true gods of void space and ordinary true gods; resisting would be a death sentence."

"There's no way we can resist."

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

Sigh.

Soon, this group of Huyang Guards was captured and taken inside a spatial secret treasure, and the five super-large Mechanical Secret Treasures shrank down and swiftly drilled into the interior of the forbidden area. With their combined strength, they quickly broke through the layers of protections of the forbidden area.

"The base of the formation in the forbidden area had already been dismantled; the city's grand formation can now only maintain the most superficial power," they said.

"We haven't even attacked yet, and the Five Great Families had already dismantled the core of the grand formation." The five super-large Mechanical Stream Secret Treasures went in to investigate and found that everything that could be dismantled by the city owner's mansion had been dismantled.

With the three major forbidden areas prematurely dismantled, only the ordinary formations integrated throughout the city were still operational, leaving the Huyang City's grand formation with only a mere ten to twenty percent of its power.

"Set up the Sect Great Formation as quickly as possible."

"Quickly."

From inside the five super-large Mechanical Secret Treasures, eternal true gods immediately flew out, rapidly setting up the formation according to the plan.

The Heartshadow Sect had many Sect Great Formations. As a former sect of Godly King level, their formations were much more mysterious than the Huyang City's grand formation, and the most top-notch formations even required a Primal Chaos Overlord to activate.

However, at this moment, what they set up were three simpler ones, which could be deployed in a short amount of time.

Movable formations generally have less power than fixed formations.

These three Sect Great Formations overlaid together were only slightly stronger than the fixed Huyang City's grand formation. However, once a great battle occurs, the impact of the formations, aiding in battle, is still significant.

The three sets of Sect Great Formations needed seven locations to set up the formations. These forbidden areas had sufficient space and were thus utilized for this purpose.

...

The Primal Chaos Armor Sector of Huyang City resembled a huge ring surrounding the city owner's mansion.

At this moment, all of the ring, except for a very small point— 'Lord Luo He's cave mansion,' had become the encampment for the Heartshadow Sect.

"Sect Leader, the Five Great Families had prematurely dismantled the core of the three major forbidden area formations. Our sect disciples are currently setting up the formations at full speed, and it won't be long before the setup is successful," an elder responsible for the formation placement immediately reported.

"It must be fast." The Master of the Heartshadow Sect stood atop the highest mountain in Primal Chaos Armor Sector, looking around, "Elder Yun Yi, take immediate control of the city gates. From this moment, strictly prohibit entry and exit."

"Yes."

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

With a command, eight super-large Mechanical Secret Treasures immediately flew towards the city gates. During their flight, they even repeatedly forced their way through the void. Clearly, as the power of the Huyang City's grand formation weakened, the spatial seals were also greatly reduced.

"The entire Huyang City could turn into a battlefield at any time; we need to leave quickly."

"Let's leave this dangerous place first."

Many cultivators sensed the danger and were rushing towards the city gates.

Unfortunately, even with only ten to twenty percent power in Huyang City's grand formation, there were very few eternal true gods who could force their way through the void on their own. They had to fly slowly, and it would take some time to reach the city gates.

"Huff, huff, huff."

Continuously, cultivators left.

Suddenly, two super-large Mechanical Secret Treasures traveled through the void and arrived at the East City Gate.

"Seal the city gate!" A terrifying power enveloped the entire East City Gate, and a swath of darkness descended, directly capturing the guards at the gate.

"Bad, they're sealing the city gates."

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

Meanwhile, the cultivators who had already reached the outside of the city breathed a sigh of relief.

"They're taking action so quickly?" Outside the city, the Clan Leader of the Zhu Clan, 'Zhu Hu,' looked at the scene from afar, "I brought out fifty percent of our clan at top speed. But the remaining clan members... that's a bit troublesome."

The Zhu Clan has been rooted in Huyang City for too long, with numerous family members infiltrating every industry in the city.

Whether it's the Huyang Guards or the Huyang Legion, even members of many other forces, there are descendants of the Zhu Clan.

Even if they wanted to escape, Zhu Hu could only take the numerous family members who were already in the family's cave mansion directly into the mansion's secret treasure. As for those scattered throughout the city, he had no time to gather them anymore.

"Of the Zhu Clan's eternal true gods, only two are in the city. Zhu You and Zhu Fuqing, both of who have wide connections and are members of a major force's branch. They should be able to protect themselves," thought Zhu Hu. "With them here, they should be able to protect more of our clansmen."

After all, fifty percent of the clan members, many of whom are elites, are indispensable to the Zhu Clan.

"It's all up to Zhu You and Fuqing, these two kids," Zhu Hu sighed, the thin old man feeling unprecedented weakness.

Against the Heartshadow Sect, they had no capacity to resist.

"Such a powerful sect, even Yu Kingdom's strongest eternal true gods could only try to save their lives," Zhu Hu immediately traveled through the void, quickly leaving, heading toward neighboring Primal Chaos Prefecture.

...

Eight super-large mechanical secret treasures hurried to the four city gates to prevent entry and exit!

Once the sect's great formation was completely set up, the dark formation enveloped the entire Huyang City, sealing it entirely, leaving no dead angles, neither in the sky nor beneath the ground.

The original four city gates were also enveloped and sealed by a dark light, no longer allowing passage.

"We've succeeded."

"We can go back now," Looking up at the vast sect great formation, the eight super-large mechanical secret treasures guarding the four city gates began to depart.

The sect's great formation sealed everywhere; there was absolutely no way out.

Want to break out by force?

Possibly in the whole city, only Lord Luo He would have the strength to do so.

The Heartshadow Sect was even hoping that Lord Luo He would leave on his own!

"This isn't Huyang City's formation."

"The Heartshadow Sect set up a formation, enveloping the whole city?"

All the eternal true gods within Huyang City sensed the change in the formation, and with their knowledge, they could immediately tell the difference between this dark great formation and the original Huyang City Formation.

"Things are getting more interesting." Flame Wind Pavilion, Master Emperor Chu Yu watched the scene leisurely.

During his travels across the Land of Origin, he had witnessed various conflicts.

The conflict in Huyang City was merely a small ripple in his cultivation life.

"My Flame Wind Pavilion remains neutral among all parties, and it's also not easy to interfere in wars," said the deputy pavilion master, a figure shrouded in grey mist.

"If every branch could interfere in wars at will, the Flame Wind Pavilion could not remain neutral," Emperor Chu Yu said.

"Master, with the Heartshadow Sect just arriving, you've deciphered the Law of Primal Chaos. It seems the Heartshadow Sect is still your lucky star," the deputy pavilion master laughed.

"Hahaha..."

Emperor Chu Yu's laughter was hearty and joyful.

"After enduring long years, guided even by secret tomes, it took me until today to reach the Primal Chaos Realm," Emperor Chu Yu reflected. "For a Law Lineage to reach the Primal Chaos Realm, it's very difficult."

His cultivation technique was a secret passed down by the imperial family of the Flame Wind Ancient Country, much more powerful than the common Godly King level inheritances.

From eternal true god to Primal Chaos Overlord, the usual method of inheritance is continuous accumulation, eventually making a sudden breakthrough. But in the imperial family of the Flame Wind Ancient Country, there are detailed guides that lower the difficulty of breakthroughs significantly when followed step by step.

Unlike Luo Feng, who has been accumulating aimlessly. He possessed the will of a Godly King, a Perfect Divine Body bringing immense soul power, and studied both the Great Dao of Life Origin and the Mysteries of Destruction's Origin.

He grasped more techniques in the Primal Chaos Realm than Emperor Chu Yu, yet still couldn't break through.

"I have the guidance of the secret tome, combined with the complementary nine techniques of the Primal Chaos Realm and numerous resources assisting me, only then did I break through today," Emperor Chu Yu said. "I wonder when Luo He will be able to break through."

Reaching the Primal Chaos Realm in the Law Lineage is the minimum threshold for becoming a Guest Elder in Emperor Chu's Lineage.

"He has also accumulated quite deeply, but breaking through to the Primal Chaos Realm also requires some chance," said the deputy pavilion master, "By the way, Master, when are you going back? When are you going to report your breakthrough to the clan?"

"No rush," Emperor Chu Yu said, "I've already reported to the great ancestor, who asked me to keep it a secret for now. He will send resources over, and once my godly body is fully grown and my strength completely consolidated, then I'll go back."

The deputy pavilion master showed a pleased expression: "Whatever the great ancestor instructs you to do, just do it."

In the imperial clan of the Flame Wind Ancient Country, those who cultivated 'unlimited godly bodies' were elite members, too. In Emperor Chu's Lineage, after countless ages, there were almost a hundred people with unlimited godly bodies, each of whom could directly contact the great ancestor.

The deputy pavilion master, in contrast, had a relatively lower status within the clan. After all, even as eternal true gods in the Bloodline Cultivation System who were very powerful, the imperial clan had numerous such members, naturally not eligible to contact the great ancestor.

The great ancestor of Emperor Chu's Lineage was one of the emperors of the Flame Wind Ancient Country, known as 'Emperor Chu'!

"The unlimited godly body in the Primal Chaos Realm, is more majestic in size and slower in growth. Additionally, I also need to practice secret techniques to consolidate my strength," Emperor Chu Yu said, "I hope that before I leave, Luo He can break through. Then I can take him back with me."

"Within one or two eras, you should be able to fully consolidate, Master. How could Luo He break through so quickly?" the deputy pavilion master said. "Being stuck at a bottleneck for a few thousand or even tens of thousands of eras is quite normal."

"Once my strength is consolidated and if he hasn't broken through, I'll leave him a talisman, and we'll go back first," Emperor Chu Yu looked at the chaos within the city, then stepped into the small building.
