Swallowing the Stars: The Supreme Being of All Heavens

Chapter 53 Death Star Vine

In the cosmic space outside of Gulei Star, a gray, saucer-shaped spaceship is moving away.

"I've got the statue." Suk looked at the ring in his hand, probed into it with his consciousness, saw the tall statue inside, and smiled.

Given the size of the space ring that exists in the darkness, taking away a hundred-meter-tall statue would be a piece of cake.

Suk and his group left Holy Mountain City first, and then had Hail use the ring to take the statue away. They boarded the spaceship and left without anyone noticing. The statue was so big that Holy Mountain City never worried about anyone stealing it. There were hardly any guards nearby. It wasn't until the statue suddenly disappeared that they discovered it.

Although it seemed rather unethical to simply take away someone's ancestral memorial, Suk selectively ignored it.

When the Great Emperor took over Holy Mountain City, he was nominally the Lord of Holy Mountain City. Everything in Holy Mountain City belonged to the Great Emperor, including the statues. Since Hayel was his servant, Hayel's things also belonged to him... No problem.

"Ten trillion!" Suk thought to himself with delight.

Although the high-level spatial ring he possesses is worth far more than ten trillion, he still needs it and would never sell it.

Putting everything else aside, the ability to carry a spaceship over 100 meters long with you and release it to escape in case of danger is invaluable.

Such a precious spatial ring is something that even princes and princesses of many mid-level civilizations in the universe might not possess, and it cannot be revealed casually.

"Next, we'll leave here, find a suitable planet, and sell this statue." Suk's plans changed.

Now that he has a ninth-tier cosmic-level guard by his side, he has the strength to fight back even if the Blood Spring Gang really comes after him, so he can be a little bolder.

In some early-stage civilizations in the universe, the strongest being only at the ninth level of the universe, with Hail as his protector, Suk could basically roam freely in these countries.

However, he is a low-key person and doesn't like to attract attention. Even with Hail, he doesn't plan to expose it, for fear that others will find out about Hail's breakthrough.

Liu Mila is fine; it's common for a slave to break through from the ninth level of the Hengxing level to the first level of the Universe level.

But Hail, a slave who was a ninth-level star a year ago, suddenly grew to a ninth-level cosmic level. No one would believe there was no secret behind it.

If he attracts the attention of some powerful figures who might try to take advantage of him, Suk might be in big trouble.

Although the universe seems vast, there is a virtual universe where much information can be traced. Therefore, for the sake of safety, Hail cannot easily reveal himself, at least not let anyone know that he is a ninth-order cosmic-level being.

The spaceship finally entered the dark universe.

Suk sat in the captain's seat in the spaceship's control room, his head tilted to one side, supported by one hand.

There was another reason why he left Gulei Star so directly: there was something inside the stone gate that he was to be given.

That is a very special auxiliary life seed, or what you might call the core.

The vast universe is all-encompassing, mysterious, and unpredictable. There are countless forms of life, including flesh-and-blood beings such as humans and animals. There are also other life forms such as metallic life, plant life, energy life, and intelligent life.

Flesh-and-blood life forms are the most powerful, but other life forms should not be underestimated.

Strange races with eternal life include metallic life forms, energy life forms, soul life forms, plant life forms, and so on. Metallic life forms can be divided into tens of millions of types. Plant life forms also number in the hundreds of millions.

For example, there are various unique metallic life forms such as "Meteor River Metal Lifeform", "Engu Metal Beast", "Bernar Metal Lifeform", and "Annihilation Cave Gold Insect". Plant life forms include "Iron Vine Grass", "Snail Flower", "Cloud Vine", "Star-Eating Grass", "Ice Blood Sunflower", etc. Although some of them are expensive and rare, they can be cultivated and sold.

In the vast universe, there are still some unique and magical plant life forms that cannot be sold.

Suk stroked the fist-sized seed with its metallic sheen and texture, his eyes gleaming. "This Death Star Vine seed in my hand is the kind that you can't buy anywhere. There are probably only a handful of Death Star Vines that can survive in the universe."

Suk only realized what treasure he had obtained after reading the description in the spatial ring.

The Death Star Vine is incredibly magical. Strictly speaking, it is a strange life form that is half plant and half metal. It is born on a newly formed life-bearing planet. As it grows, it automatically devours various life forms, plants, metals, rocks, etc. on the planet. The life force of the entire planet supplies this terrifying existence for its growth. An ordinary life-bearing planet is enough to allow a Death Star Vine to evolve to the cosmic level in a short time before it enters the brink of death.

"The Death Star Vine has no worst or best cultivation method. No matter what, it will continue to evolve along a predetermined and unique growth path. It is born with only one main vine, but has 10081 branch vines."

"Its semi-metallic, semi-plant life form gives it both hardness far exceeding that of other top-tier metallic life forms and vitality far exceeding that of plant life forms."

"Its size is enormous, exceeding that of a planet. It's incredibly tough and sharp, capable of 'devouring,' and possesses powerful 'cellular activity,' allowing it to entangle and kill. Its attack power is terrifying; overall, it's practically perfect," Suk exclaimed with delight. Who wouldn't love such an all-around, almost flawless support life form?

Furthermore, they can possess metal life forms, plant life forms, and energy life forms. Once possessed, they can grant their master extraordinary strength. They can also form a close-fitting battle armor to protect their master's safety, and are incredibly loyal; if the master dies, they die too!

However, it is ultimately just a life-supporting entity. Although it can greatly increase the owner's strength when attached to them, this power is not truly their own. Therefore, it cannot be used perfectly. Even when using secret techniques, it cannot reach its peak effect.

Suk closed his eyes, calming himself down slightly. He thought to himself, "According to the dark voice, the seed of this Death Star Vine has been specially prepared. It can be cultivated with just a drop of blood. Once the seed starts to sprout, it's equivalent to a successful recognition of its master. No troublesome process or treasures are needed, and it won't have any negative effects on the Death Star Vine."

"Then place the juvenile Death Star Vine inside a life-bearing planet near its core. It will automatically absorb all the life matter of the planet to grow rapidly at an astonishing rate. Of course, in the process, it will also cause serious and fatal erosion and damage to the life-bearing planet. When the Death Star Vine grows to the cosmic level, the entire life-bearing planet will be ruined, even if it does not disintegrate, and become a dead and barren planet. This growth process only takes three years."

It can absorb the life of a planet and grow to the cosmic level in just three years, which shows how terrifying the Death Star Vine is.

After that, the Death Star Vine was fed with Life Planet, and all it had to do was keep eating.

Only habitable planets are allowed; other types of planets, such as mineral-bearing planets, are not permitted.

It seems to have been born with a penchant for devouring life-bearing planets.

This method allows one to continuously devour and grow to the level of Domain Lord and World Lord without any bottlenecks.

Suk's eyes gleamed. "Then the immediate priority is to find a habitable planet so that the Death Star Vine can be brought to this world."
