Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 462

"Unfortunately, we had no choice," Gu Hua, the demigod, sighed inwardly.

The demons have decided to implement the virtual universe among humans as soon as possible, and they are clearly going to fight tooth and nail to integrate the power of the entire human race.

"I will promote a virtual universe among the human race."

With these words from the demigod Gu Hua, it was essentially equivalent to relinquishing control over the human race. Once the virtual universe was extended to the entire human race, the controller of the virtual universe would be the uncrowned king of the human race.

Actually, it's not so bad. The core of a cultivator is still themselves. Even if one becomes an emperor, one is not omnipotent.

It's not that just because Lu Yunhe ruled the Qingyang World, everyone inside instantly saw all his orders wholeheartedly.

"it is good!"

Lu Yunhe nodded. As for the faith of the Lord of Ultra, there was no need for the human race's help; it would be faster to promote it directly through the virtual network.

"There's one more thing: I need enough cultivation resources," Lu Yunhe said.

Providing the virtual universe network was merely to help the Qingyang World withstand the pressure from the demons; its own strength was the key.

"no problem."

Gu Hua, the demigod, said with great satisfaction, "How much resources can a mere transcendent being consume?"

"Give!"

Lu Yunhe opened his mouth and spat out a pure white ball of light, which landed in front of the demigod Gu Hua.

"This is a secondary core of the virtual universe network. After being refined, it will also have some permissions in the virtual world."

The core of the virtual game is the red ball, which is completely under his control. It wouldn't be a problem to delegate some secondary cores to help him manage the virtual universe.

"Thank you!"

Gu Hua, the demigod, took the white light orb. His mind raced, and through some details, he instantly analyzed the innate divine beast before him. Although it claimed to rule the entire world, it was not actually interested in true dominion and perhaps had other purposes.

Like these demigods, who has nothing better to do than meddle with this person or that person? They'd be better off spending that time in seclusion and cultivating.

Gu Hua, the demigod who left Lu Yunhe, also found the other demigods and told them about the virtual universe.

Although I knew it was a candy containing poison, I was so hungry that I had no choice but to eat it.

Under the will of the demigods, the virtual universe network began to spread throughout the entire Qingyang world.

Unlike the virtual world next door that requires a chip to log in, the red ball version of the virtual universe network can be entered simply by the power of the mind.

Therefore, Lu Yunhe revised the entry conditions, so that one only needs to visualize the Ultra God to enter.

He doesn't need everyone to become complete fanatics of Ultraman; it's enough that they know such a being exists.

Like Lu Yunhe, these demigods also shut down a large number of entertainment-related templates through secondary controllers when promoting the virtual universe network.

In this situation, they need warriors and geniuses more than ever; it's not time for them to enjoy themselves.

However, the biggest advantage of the virtual universe lies in its long-term operation. Almost nothing can match its ability to allocate resources and manage personnel.

Putting everything else aside, everyone enters the virtual universe and immediately participates in genius battles of various levels.

It doesn't require any resources or gathering of people; all you need to do is log in at a certain time and have a fight.

And you don't have to worry about post-injury treatment, which is the most troublesome part, since the difference in strength between people of the same level is not large, and it is easy to get injured.

But in the virtual universe, there's no such worry; you can just fight to the death.

After the operational efficiency improved by several levels, the demigods in the Qingyang World were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, as they could bleed out blood while receiving transfusions.

The entire Qingyang world is quite large, with a large population. However, it previously lacked the ability to mobilize all of these people, since it's difficult to conduct a population census in a fantasy world.

As more and more talented people began to emerge, the demigods were overjoyed, but they couldn't help but think of another money-devouring behemoth.

When Lu Yunhe started demanding cultivation resources, the others didn't think much of it at first; after all, he was just a transcendent-level cultivator.

However, when they actually started investing resources, they realized they were wrong, terribly wrong.

The resources that would make even Saint-level beings envious could only slightly accelerate King Orb Mengs's cultivation speed.

All the resources saved through the virtual universe network were poured into Lu Yunhe, and even that wasn't enough.

"Would draining the entire Qingyang World be enough for King Orb to cultivate to become a demigod?"

A demigod watched in terror as King Orb's draining power was like a black hole.

Even if you throw in massive amounts of resources, all you can do is enjoy the show.

"I'm afraid only the Demon Realm and the God Realm have enough resources to support his cultivation. Our small world simply can't afford it," the demigods said with a wry smile.

At this moment, everyone once again understood the terror of innate divine beasts; their terrifying demand for resources was also proof of their talent.

The resources invested in Lu Yunhe were not just a matter of improvement for some ordinary geniuses, but rather something they simply couldn't digest.

"No wonder he wants to rule this world. Even if he were to use an entire world to support him, it would only slightly increase his cultivation speed."

Many demigods shook their heads, then gritted their teeth and decided that even if they didn't need to cultivate themselves, they would still satisfy King Orb's need for cultivation.

Because of the virtual universe, they have discovered many geniuses, but none of them have shown the talent to turn the tide of the world war.

This even applies to the demigods themselves; continuing like this will only postpone the destruction of the world without fundamentally changing anything.

But Lu Yunhe was different; he gave them hope of victory.

With the demigods speaking, resources from the entire Qingyang World were mobilized and sent wave after wave into Lu Yunhe's hands.

Lu Yunhe accepted all offers without hesitation, consuming vast amounts of resources to accelerate his advancement from the extraordinary to the saintly level.

Meanwhile, the battle between the Qingyang World and the Demon Clan continues in full swing.

The demon race has a much stronger high-end force; all those who can invade the small world are elites.

On the other hand, Qingyang World has the advantage of being a local place, as well as a constant influx of people, giving it a greater advantage in terms of numbers.

Moreover, as a world with a rich history, the human and demon races can occasionally unleash some extremely threatening trump cards, after all, they also possess a divine treasure trove.

Overall, the demons still held the advantage, gradually eroding the entire small world.

However, with Lu Yunhe's arrival, the situation immediately changed.

Using the red ball as a springboard, Lu Yunhe devised some formations that could gather the power of the masses, allowing weaker beings to contend with stronger ones by leveraging these formations and treasures.

Along the way, Lu Yunhe occasionally stepped in to help out, taking down several demon demigods and severely dampening the demons' arrogance.

"Still at the extraordinary level, I feel that his aura hasn't changed much."

Meanwhile, the Red Horned Demon Clan was also secretly observing Lu Yunhe's actions and recording the state of the innate divine beast.

"That's true. Even with the supplies from the Qingyang World, it's still a drop in the ocean for a primordial divine beast."

The Red Horned Demon Clan also discovered the resource movements in the Azure Sun World, so they no longer felt any pressure.

Once the innate divine beasts grow up, these demons will probably all perish here.

"Lord Witch God, you must make a decision quickly!" The Red Horned Demon Clan relayed information about the Primordial Demon God back to the Demon Realm while directing the war between the Demon Clan and the Azure Sun World.

However, the power invested by the demon race was not enough to completely overwhelm them. Lu Yunhe hid in the secret realm, and even the demon race's demigods could not find his location.

The secret realm and the small world are integrated, and some special methods are needed to locate them.

……

Demonic world!

At this moment, the Great Wizard God was in the secret chamber, constantly refining the puppet before him, separating his soul from his power and entering the puppet.

The price to enter the small world was completely unaffordable for ordinary gods. Even the Great Witch God had to sell his possessions and pull strings to barely find a way that he could afford.

"Give me some more time to refine this demigod puppet into a god, and then I will be able to enter the Qingyang World." The Great Witch God looked at the thing in front of him with heartache, something he had spent a great deal of money on, but which could only be used in a small world.

Moreover, the cost he incurred has attracted the attention of some people.

For an ordinary deity to go to such great lengths to enter a small world, there must be a great secret hidden within, one that far exceeds the cost he paid, since no one would do a losing proposition.

"We have to hurry!" The Great Wizard God eliminated distractions and focused all his energy on refining the puppet before him.

……

Qingyang World!

With the continuous help of resources, Lu Yunhe successfully cultivated to the Saint rank.

"The next step is to become a demigod." Lu Yunhe was considering increasing his demand for resources.

However, after taking a look at the treasure troves of the human and demon races through the virtual universe, I gave up. Maintaining the current resource investment is already difficult, let alone increasing it.

"Alright, I still have to look at the red ball!" Lu Yunhe fiddled with the red ball and continued to immerse himself in cultivation.

Unbeknownst to many, decades have passed, and the flames of war between humans, demons, and monsters have spread almost throughout the entire Qingyang world.

On this day, the demons strangely stopped their attack and gathered around an altar. A figure with a naked upper body was teleported over.

"Witch God!"

"Witch God!"

……

Chapter 470 Demigod

"Witch God!"

The demons who had invaded the Qingyang world all gathered together, staring with fanaticism at the figure on the altar.

For these demons, the existence of the divine realm is their lifelong faith.

"Let's set out and conquer this world!"

The Great Wizard waved his hand. He had already personally intervened, so he didn't believe this small world had any ability to resist.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

The demons instantly rioted, making no attempt to conceal their intentions, and prepared to launch a full-scale attack on the human race.

"The demons, how dare they be so arrogant!"

However, just as the demons gathered together, the virtual universe network also detected the commotion and notified the demigods of the Qingyang world.
