Stellar Body!

The afternoon sun scorched the earth, and vast stretches of grass and trees seemed to wither beneath its blazing heat.

The monsters that usually rampaged through the wilderness had vanished into the wilds, hiding in dark corners to escape the sweltering sun.

Yet in such an environment, a young man walked beneath the blazing sun in a full set of combat gear, a blood-red saber with a blade over a meter long strapped to his back.

Martial artist combat gear was made from all sorts of strange alloys and monster materials. In such scorching conditions, wearing it should have either roasted someone into a dried corpse or at least left them drenched in sweat.

Yet not a drop of sweat appeared on the young man's body, while the blades of grass beneath his metal combat boots had turned scorched yellow and withered.

This undoubtedly proved just how high the temperature of his combat gear had become.

"The closer I get to the Zhaluoluo Nuclear Power Plant, the more active my Stellar Body becomes. I can feel it—I'm already very, very close to the Planetary level.

I really did come to the right place."

Jiang Ming felt the scorching blood flowing through his body and the strength that was constantly rising within him, and his mood could not help but brighten.

"The Stellar Body is only a Domain Lord level talent, yet it already possesses such unbelievable power. It allowed me to rise from a low-level warrior to an invincible War God in just three months.

If I reach the Planetary level, I wonder what kind of talent I'll awaken."

Thinking of the talent space he had been pulled into when he broke through to the warrior level, and the immense talents he had seen there—each as vast as a star, a stellar system, or even a galaxy—Jiang Ming could not help but look forward to it.

"There are still three years until the Kinkaku Beast wreaks havoc. With my talent, that's enough time for me to reach the Stellar level."

Jiang Ming thought to himself.

Ever since he had been reborn into this world, he had originally assumed it was just an ordinary world of high-level martial arts. It was not until one day, when he saw an advertisement for the Limitless Martial Arts School on television, that he was shocked to discover that this was the world of Swallowed Star.

After learning that this was the world of Swallowed Star, Jiang Ming's first thought had been to cling to Luo Feng's thigh.

Though that seemed a little shameful for a transmigrator, he had checked himself back then. He truly had not possessed even the slightest cheat.

How was he supposed to survive in Swallowed Star without a cheat?

Obviously, he had to cling to City Lord Luo's thigh!

But he had tragically discovered that this path did not seem viable either. He had not been born in Jiangnan Base City, but in Yanjing Base City, thousands of kilometers away from Jiangnan Base City.

For an ordinary person, that was an insurmountable gulf.

In order to cling to City Lord Luo's thigh as soon as possible, Jiang Ming trained tirelessly day and night.

Under that intense training, Jiang Ming unexpectedly discovered that his talent was quite good. At only sixteen, he broke through to the Apprentice level.

That was equivalent to an elementary warrior on Earth.

When he broke through to the warrior level, Jiang Ming discovered that it was not that he had no cheat. Rather, this cheat only appeared whenever he broke through a realm.

He called this cheat a Talent Secret Technique Every Level!

After breaking through, he had been pulled into a talent space.

Within that boundless space, Jiang Ming saw countless dazzling talents suspended high in the sky.

After struggling forward with all his might, Jiang Ming managed to seize the brightest talent planet within his reach.

He obtained his first Talent Secret Technique!

A Domain Lord level Talent Secret Technique! Stellar Body!

This talent directly raised Jiang Ming's Body Gene level threefold and gave him the ability to absorb light, heat, and radiation to enhance his physical qualities and elevate his cultivation realm.

With the Stellar Body talent empowering him, Jiang Ming's cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds.

During the martial artist combat assessment, he had already reached the physical level of a warlord, shocking the entirety of Yanjing Base City.

He directly obtained a place in the Limitless Martial Arts School's Elite Training Camp.

After entering the Elite Training Camp, Jiang Ming sped through it with ease.

In one month, he swept through the Black Dragon List and graduated immediately!

Another month later, he had reached his current level: an invincible War God.

Combined with his threefold Body Gene and the combat power amplification brought by Stellar Body—

Even a King-level monster could be killed!

Jiang Ming continued deeper inside. At that moment, he sensed an incomparably powerful aura.

This powerful aura was far stronger than the high-level lords Jiang Ming had killed before.

"A King-level monster?"

Jiang Ming thought to himself upon sensing the aura.

Although he had sensed a King-level aura, Jiang Ming had no intention of retreating.

He had long since checked through the Limitless Martial Arts School's authority channels that a King-level monster resided within the Zhaluoluo Nuclear Power Plant.

Jiang Ming did not fear ordinary King-level monsters, but the one occupying the Zhaluoluo Nuclear Power Plant was no ordinary King-level monster.

It was a powerful King-level monster equivalent to a third-level human Planetary expert.

"All I can say is that you have rotten luck, having to fight me here."

Jiang Ming straightened, his eyes as cold and sharp as blades, and spoke to the enormous monster appearing in midair.

The monster stood nearly seventy meters tall, its body upright upon the ground, while a long tail almost as long as its height dragged behind it.

"Roar~"

The Demon Lizard King was no less intelligent than a human. It could understand human speech, and hearing this human, whose aura was merely that of a high-level lord, dare to speak so arrogantly naturally displeased it.

"If I encountered you somewhere else, I could only turn and leave without a word. But unfortunately—

You met me here!

For the sake of how obediently you've stayed here for over a decade, I'll give you one chance.

Kneel! Become my mount! Then I'll spare your life!"

Silence!

Absolute silence!

At that moment, even the wind in the wilderness seemed to have stopped completely!

The Demon Lizard King could hardly believe its ears!

What had it just heard?!

This human, whose aura was only that of a high-level lord, wanted it to kneel!

Wanted it to submit!

"ROAR!!!!!!!"

Rage!

Boundless rage exploded within the Demon Lizard King's heart!

Fury burned through its heart. At that moment, it only wanted to crush this human who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth.

To grind every one of his bones into powder!

To melt every inch of his flesh bit by bit in its saliva!

Boom!

A blazing red breath attack shot from the Demon Lizard King's mouth.

This was an all-out strike without the slightest reservation!

This attack, filled with its endless fury, seemed to have undergone a qualitative leap in power, faintly touching upon an even higher realm.

The Demon Lizard King was certain that even a fourth-level human Planetary expert would not dare take this attack head-on!

At that moment, the Demon Lizard King felt some regret. After this strike, there would probably be nothing left of that hateful human.

Not even a speck of ash would remain!

The crimson breath, more than five meters in diameter, completely engulfed the human. Seeing this, the Demon Lizard King had not expected that this boastful human would be so utterly vulnerable.

He had not even had time to react.

Bored by the sight, the Demon Lizard King turned to go back and rest.

But before it could take a single step, it sensed a scorching fluctuation erupt from where Jiang Ming had stood.

On the ground where Jiang Ming had been standing, his combat gear had been completely melted away. Only the special saber forged from King-level material remained intact.

"You fell for it that easily. Sure enough, no matter how high their level, monsters are equally stupid."

At that moment, crimson-gold Sun God Marks emerged across Jiang Ming's body.

Within his crimson-gold eyes burned killing intent as cold and sharp as blades!
