Swallowed Star Chapter 838
The winged human Night emperor who was reduced to ashes had incredibly weak amount of energy left. The scene made Luo Feng, who was about to flee the room shocked. From his energy level…Gold Cang had actually instantly made Night emperor lose half his undying body!
50%!
Losing half his soul made it so that Night emperor could only unleash 10% of his strength from before, the soul was very important.
"Gold Cang, don't force me!" Night emperor's eyes were filled with madness as he reformed, staring hard at Gold Cang.
Gold Cang was incredibly intrepid now.
Even if Night emperor burned his undying body, he still couldn't escape. He could only hope for Gold Cang to spar him.
"If forced, I'll…" Night stared at Gold Cang.
"Self destruct? Haha, do you think that if you do so, I'll be afraid? My undying body won't be hurt even a little from it! Haha, I've already destroyed half of your undying body, and destroying the other half will kill you. So, why should I let you off? Just die!" Gold Cang didn't show any mercy.
"Remember…remember…I will return to take revenge!" Night emperor roared.
"Explode! Explode! Explode!"
Night emperor howled.
Self destructing with only 50% of his undying body left…that was the result of Gold Cang's undying energy destroying Night emperor's other half. Hence his explosion wouldn't be too huge.
At this time, Gold Cang could take the blow alone, but who would be that stupid?
Gold Cang chose to retreat!
Rumble…A pinnacle emperor's self destruct, it was so powerful it made everyone else, such as Purple Clock, Ice Blade, Piercing Tiger and Luo Feng shocked.
Pinnacle emperor self destruct was akin to a million sector lord king bugs attacking together!
This was able to kill a high emperor! Heavily injure a pinnacle emperor! Or even cause the pinnacle emperor to fall because of it, but of course that required luck…
Even though…
Night emperor only had 50% of his undying body left, it was still half of a pinnacle emperor's explosion. Unlike Gold Cang's attack that destroyed him, this was an explosion that rippled in all directions. There was no way to control the direction of attack. Self destructing meant the death of a god, his energy would ripple in all directions!
"No!!!" Ice Blade, who was engaged with Piercing Tiger changed his expression, "Gold Cang, you caused this!!!"
Ice Blade fled in fear.
"Rumble…" The powerful force instantly acted on his body. The high emperor Ice Blade was instantly reduced to ashes, and his ashes were further destroyed.

"Night emperor, you are dragging me along with you!" Piercing Tiger rushed into the room in shock.
Rumble!
The force rushed over Piercing Tiger like a torrent of water. His armor gleamed before his entire body exploded, after which he reformed.
Rumble! The force rippled through Purple Clock's body. He gritted his teeth and a membrane flashed throughout his body, withstanding the attack for awhile before his body became powder too, after which he reformed back.
Rumble! Luo Feng wrapped himself in his wings and withstood the attack!
…
Gold Cang, Purple clock, Ice blade, Piercing Tiger and Luo Feng all withstood the force of Night emperor's explosion. Some were undamaged, some hurt while one fell!
Not just the five of them.
Even the Sacrificial tower wasn't as stable as before against the force of a pinnacle emperor's explosion. The walls within the pathway and room glowed madly from the force before breaking apart and crumbling as the ripples spread about.
Every wall gleamed for awhile before falling apart, however with each layer of wall it broke through, the power slowly diminished too.
With a diameter of 60km, a circular crater was formed as everything was reduced to nothing!
The tower itself was made of F grade metals. This was a special weapon, and just like how many weapons could become big or small, this tower could do so as well. However, it was closer to a God base or Star fortress level of weapon, but it's internal defense wasn't the same throughout.
The inheritance room and second treasure room, these two important rooms had higher defenses.
The walls outside the core region were incredibly strong as well.
Although there were many walls within, they were weaker. Even with the help of the mysterious engravings…Night emperor's explosion still destroyed an area of 60km in diameter.
******
Silence.
Within the tower, there was silence.
Luo Feng and Piercing Tiger exchanged glances, communicating.
"Night emperor actually made me lose 6% of my undying body, what a waste." Piercing Tiger communicated, "However Yang, we are in trouble. Night emperor's death is a big loss to our strength. Even though they've lost Ice Blade too…he was only a high emperor. There is not much of an effect on the remaining two."
"What a pity for Night emperor." Luo Feng replied.
"What's there to pity, isn't he a human? You humans…value each and every emperor. Even if they fall, they will be revived after reversing space and time in the future." Piercing Tiger said. "It's a pity that I don't have that kind of luck. Even though I am a member of the Hong alliance too, for me to get that kind of chance…I have to earn more contribution points to raise my position."

Luo Feng was shocked.
A universe master had unbelievable power, and they could reverse time and space to a point before the target hadn't died…reviving a warrior. Humanity had several beings that could do so, like the founder of the Huge Axe Dojo, the Primal Chaos city leader, Long Yan master, Void gold master…
They would, in a certain point in time, revive a large amount of warriors together!
Those revived were either very strong or had great contributions or were disciples of important people etc…
However…
It did have its price.
The universe masters paid very little for reviving someone like Night emperor. However, the small price was only to beings like them. They couldn't possible swallow the costs, these had to be returned eventually by the warriors who were revived. They either had to fight for humanity or get treasures to give to humanity.
"Poor Night emperor. Even if he is revived, he'll have to fight for humanity for a very long time." Luo Feng thought. "However, it's already lucky that he has such a chance. As for the other races…some races didn't even have a being like a universe master. Even if they join the Hong alliance…the requirement just to be considered for revival far exceeded that of the humans."
No one wanted to fall!
The stronger one got, the higher the price of revival would be.
The Primal Chaos city leader had said himself that reviving a knight would make him receive a backlash from the universe laws that could damage even him.
If he revived a being like Xi Luo Duo or the Tian Shi palace leader, he may even fall from the backlash! One had to know that the city leader's power far exceeded Xi Luo Duo and the others. But he could fall from reviving them…it was clear that the backlash was terrifying.
Night emperor would be revived sometime in the future!
The price he would have to pay could only be imagined.
…
"Gold Cang, that Night emperor was about to flee, why did you force him?" Purple Clock was enraged. "Even Ice Blade has fallen!" Ice Blade was from the Qi Cang race too. Even as a fellow clansmen, Purple Clock didn't respect him too much. But, they had explored together and were of the same race, hence they trusted each other.
"I got hurt from his explosion too." Purple Clock raged. "And humanity is one of the four pinnacle races. Some universe master being will eventually revive him."
"Shut up." Gold Cang cursed, "That will take countless years to happen. Even if he is revived, he still won't be my match. I only know that I can get his wealth from killing him."
With a wave of his hand, he kept the world rings and items from Night emperor and Ice Blade.
"Don't let the other humans escape." Gold Cang roared.
Xiu!
Luo Feng flapped his wings in the distance and unleashed strike travel, swiftly accelerating and disappearing down the pathway.
"You can't escape!" Gold Cang chased behind.
"Hmph." Purple Clock chased behind too.
Piercing Tiger stood amidst the waste and watched the scene, smiling coldly, "Everybody is going mad for this treasure. They are burning their undying bodies or falling. That Gold Cang's strength is something I should avoid. Even if I attack him, I will die." He flew down another pathway swiftly.
******
Within the control room.
The elder Qiu Chi Ka, the god master Pu Ai, Men Bu, La Di Mo, the four indigenous warriors stared at the projection.
When they saw Night emperor's explosion damaging the other warriors and killing Ice Blade, they all revealed a look of happiness and shock. "Look, the talisman."
"That's the talisman."
Night and Ice Blade's death made the originally melded into their bodies talismans fall to the ground.
"Go, hurry and go. You invaders, leave the talismans." The elder hoped. But, no one would have expected Gold Cang to wave his hand and keep all the items that fell from their deaths.
This made Qiu Chi Ka and the others change their expressions.
"They are heading out of the tower!"
"But the talismans are still with them." The god master Pu Ai said urgently. "Third brother, the moment they leave and teleport, we will never be able to open the inheritance room."
The elder gritted his teeth and roared, "Listen to my order."
Pu Ai, Men Bu and La Di Mo's eyes gleamed, listening to the order from their elder, they knew that it was time to move!

A Spirit Vein's Guide to Immortality
TL;DR Synopsis: Man dies from falling banana, gets interrogated but answers vaguely, suffers consequences Actual synopsis: Spirit veins. Many consider them to be the pillar on which the world of cultivation is built. These things served as the foundation for the first few realms that would allow humanity to achieve its everlasting dream of immortality. However, in the present age, these pockets of condensed energy only exist to be under the foundations of massive organizations, fostering a new generation of fighters while passively radiating the energy they contain. Nevertheless, spirit veins are still an important element in the world of cultivation, albeit much less so. With that in mind, have you ever considered what it would be like for someone to turn into a spirit vein? No? Well, Arthur never thought about it either. Going through the usual reincarnation schtick (if one could consider it usual), Arthur was eventually brought into a place where a god asked him where he would like to be reborn. Unsurprisingly, Arthur told the god his ideal rebirth. However, soon enough, he would come to realize that he should have been more specific with it. Now being reborn as the smallest spirit vein, or if you could even consider him a spirit vein, Arthur wondered what he could do other than wait for time to consume him…and that’s where the system came in. With it, he would experience multiple stories of hardships, adventure, romance, and action…all underground. Unless…? Do keep in mind that English is not my first language, so I would like to apologize in advance if there are any grammatical errors, typos, miscalculations and so on. In fact, I'd highly appreciate it if you tell me those mistakes. Also, this story focuses quite a lot on the gradual progression of the MC at the beginning, but in the long run, upgrading sprees would probably be more common. Thanks for reading this small note!
