Swallowing the Stars: Becoming a God Starting with a Hundred Generations of Talent

Chapter 67 With just the sword in my hand, I can cleave through ten thousand miles of clouds [Third Update]

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

On the mountain peak of the central island, Lu Yun remained seated in silence.

In the final ten days of the qualifiers, there were no major changes in the entire seventh division.

Occasionally, those who dared to challenge it would be intimidated by an invisible aura within a hundred miles of the mountain peak, and they would not dare to take another step forward.

When that mighty sound resounded across the entire competition plane for the third time, announcing the official end of the qualifiers, the final rankings of the seventh division were also finalized.

First place: Luo Yun, with 54,330,000 points.

This number leaves the second place far behind.

Lan Yangxing, the ancestral home of the Luo family, in the quiet courtyard on the east side.

In a quiet room.

Lu Yun's consciousness slowly withdrew from the virtual universe network.

He opened his eyes. He could clearly sense that outside the quiet room, there were many figures, and the atmosphere was tense.

The entire courtyard, and even the entire eastern section of the ancestral home, was shrouded in an unusual atmosphere.

This is the calm before the storm.

"Squeak"

The door to the quiet room was pushed open from the inside.

At the entrance, a figure in light blue stood quietly; it was Luo Qing.

At this moment, she was looking up, her clear, beautiful eyes fixed on her brother who had just walked out.

In her eyes, shock, admiration, pride, and closeness were intertwined, making her usually composed and pretty face appear somewhat at a loss.

She seemed not yet fully recovered from that earth-shattering victory.

After a long while, she took a deep breath and said softly in an almost dreamlike voice, "Brother, you're amazing."

Looking at his sister's appearance, Lu Yun felt a warmth in his heart and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

Luo Qing composed herself and quickly added, "The clan leader and elders—they are all waiting for you outside."

Lu Yun smiled.

"Let's go."

He stepped forward and out of the quiet room.

The moment Lu Yun stepped out from behind the threshold of the quiet room.

Inside and outside the courtyard, all the eyes of the Luo clan members turned to look at it.

Hundreds of gazes fell upon him, but not a sound was uttered.

They just watched quietly.

The black-haired youth walked out calmly, step by step.

Their eyes were very complicated.

There was shock, confusion, ecstasy, and a sense of unreality, like a dream.

It was as if the familiar yet unfamiliar young man before them was not their nephew or niece, but a deity who had stepped out of mythology.

Finally, a figure emerged shakily from the crowd.

It was my third uncle, Luo Ming.

The gaunt old man who had once harshly reprimanded Lu Yun in the hall, expressing his disappointment and frustration, now had a flushed face and trembling lips, wanting to say something but unable to utter a word.

Finally, he bowed deeply, deeply to Lu Yun.

"Xiaoyun————"

"It's Third Uncle—he's blind."

"Hahaha! Third brother, you're right!"

The burly Seventh Uncle Luo Zhan strode out, grabbed Luo Ming's shoulder, and his tiger-like eyes glistened with tears.

"Good lad!"

"I knew it! I knew our Luo family's prodigy was no ordinary child!"

"Number one in the region! Hahaha! Number one in the region!"

The oppressive atmosphere that had permeated the entire Luo family ancestral home was finally ignited.

The clan leader, Luo Shan, who had been standing quietly in the main seat, slowly walked over.

His steps were steady, but his slightly trembling hands betrayed his inner turmoil.

He walked up to Lu Yun without saying anything to blame or praise him.

He simply reached out and patted Lu Yun's shoulder heavily.

"it is good."

"very nice!"

These few simple words carry more weight than any other words.

next moment.

"oh!!!"

A thunderous roar of cheers erupted without warning from every corner, from the mouth of every member of the Luo clan.

The sound pierced through the courtyard and soared into the sky!

"Young Master Luo Yun!"

"Number one in the region!"

"Our Luo family is about to prosper!"

Countless people shouted excitedly, jumped, and laughed. Some of the older members of the tribe were even moved to tears, embracing each other and weeping with joy.

The emotions that had been suppressed for so long were finally released in the most thorough way at this moment.

The Luo family survived!

In the midst of this frenzied atmosphere, Luo Yun's personal terminal on his wrist suddenly emitted a soft "beep" sound.

A virtual universe network call request popped up.

He glanced at the information of the person who initiated the call request.

"A very important person wants to speak with me."

He pondered for a moment, then looked at the clan chief and several uncles beside him.

"Clan leader, uncles, please come in with me."

"good!"

Luo Shan and the others nodded immediately, their expressions solemn.

The next moment, Luo Yun and several high-ranking family members entered the virtual universe network.

In a quaint and elegant reception room within a virtual universe network.

The figures of Luo Yun, clan leader Luo Shan, and Seventh Uncle Luo Zhan appeared.

As soon as they stood still, the space opposite them rippled slightly, and a figure materialized out of thin air.

This was a middle-aged man who appeared to be around forty years old. He wore a magnificent purple robe and had an air of authority about him. His aura was as vast as the sea, indicating that he was a powerful being at the level of a Realm Lord.

The middle-aged man smiled gently when he saw Luo Yun.

"Greetings, young friend Luo Yun. I am Lester, representing the Canglan Empire."

He first congratulated Luo Yun.

"Congratulations on winning first place in the seventh division, bringing great glory to our Canglan Empire."

Then, he began to explain the next stage of the competition to Luo Yun.

"After the preliminary rounds comes the knockout stage. A total of 100,000 people from all regions will compete for the final 1,000 spots to participate in the grand finals of our 1008 Universe Nation."

The middle-aged man looked at Luo Yun with expectation in his eyes.

"His Majesty has decreed that if you can successfully break into the top 1,000, the Empire will directly grant you an entire star system as your private territory."

Luo Yun smiled.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."

The clan chief Luo Shan and several uncles behind him, upon hearing this, began to breathe rapidly, their faces filled with ecstatic joy.

A galaxy!

That's an entire galaxy as its territory!

What an enormous undertaking!

Then, the realm lord brought up another matter.

"In addition, we know that you were once a core member of the Ancient Wheel Secret Realm, but you were expelled for some reason."

Lord Lester spoke in a calm tone.

"Our Canglan Empire's ancestor was also a Marquis-level Immortal. If you still harbor resentment or want an explanation, the Empire can intervene on your behalf. I can go and communicate with the Ancient Wheel Secret Realm."

Upon hearing this, the smiles on Luo Shan and the others' faces, who were still immersed in joy, instantly froze.

The atmosphere in the reception room suddenly became subtle.

The entire family fell silent and stopped speaking.

All eyes instinctively turned to Luo Yun, awaiting his decision.

Ancient Wheel Mystery, Eliza —

This is a thorn in Luo Yun's heart, and also a scar on the entire Luo family.

The thought flashed through Luo Yun's mind in an instant.

The empire is going to stand up for me?

He knew very well that this matter was not that simple.

This is no small matter.

This is an act of obstruction.

How could we let this go so easily?

However, he also understands that the talent he is currently displaying is enough to attract the attention of some truly important figures.

Under these circumstances, it would be impossible for Eliza's father, who had been granted the title of Marquis and was immortal, to lay a hand on her.

Even the immortal who was granted the title of Marquis might not have known about this at all.

This is just Eliza being willful because she's relying on her father's name.

These thoughts flashed through my mind in the blink of an eye.

Luo Yun's gaze swept over the clan leader and several uncles beside him.

He could sense their tension and anxiety.

He smiled slightly and gave them a reassuring look.

Then, he turned his head and looked at Lord Lester.

"Although the Luo family is small."

"But it also has its own integrity."

"This is my personal matter," Luo Yun said, looking at Lord Lester. "I will handle it personally in the future."

Lord Lester looked at the young man before him and slowly nodded.

He didn't ask any more questions.

This trivial matter is probably nothing in the eyes of someone who has been granted the title of Marquis and is immortal.

That being may not even know what its daughter has done.

Although Luo Yun is currently dazzling, he is still just a genius.

In the universe, every Genius Battle produces countless exceptionally talented individuals.

But in the end, how many can truly achieve immortality?

Too little.

However, a sense of curiosity did arise in his heart.

"This is just my personal curiosity." Lord Lester smiled, his tone becoming much more casual. "I'm curious, how will you resolve this in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Yun smiled as well.

His eyes shone brightly as he spoke, "How to solve this? With the sword in my hand, I can cleave through ten thousand miles of clouds."

When Lord Lester heard Luo Yun's words, he was slightly taken aback at first, then nodded heavily, his eyes full of admiration.

"good!"

"Young people should have this kind of spirit!"

He looked at Luo Yun, his tone becoming much more serious.

"Luo Yun, I look forward to your performance next."

"The knockout stage is bigger, and the opponents are stronger. I hope you won't disappoint me or His Majesty."

"Keep it up!"

After Lord Lester finished speaking, he said no more.

He nodded gently to Luo Yun, Luo Shan, and the others once again, as a farewell.

Then, his figure disappeared into the reception room.
