Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

"To actually be able to mobilize the power of the source world to such an extent at the level of a cosmic god, that's quite impressive."

Yuan scratched his toes, as if he had touched something interesting.

"It was just a bit of luck," Lu Yunhe said helplessly.

Lu Yunhe didn't have any ill feelings towards Yuan. Although the other party was somewhat unkempt, he was still a very respectable and senior figure.

They helped him a lot, directly and indirectly. The Hunyuan Treasure given to him in the secret realm alone was of great help, not to mention the Realm Heart Continent.

Without Yuan, it would probably have taken him much longer to get to this point.

Therefore, Lu Yunhe still greatly admires Yuan. The reason why Yuan is behaving this way now, besides his personality, is probably because he is under too much pressure.

As the first Acquired Life Dao Lord, it's hard to imagine the pressure Yuan faced at that time.

Lord Hunyuan possessed unparalleled combat prowess, but it was clear that even he could not defeat four opponents with his own strength.

Not to mention that the enemy has more than four hands; the number of Hunyuan Ancestors is quite large.

They wouldn't even need to use all their forces; just a few of them would probably be enough to surround and kill the Yuan dynasty at that time.

Not to mention, there are some equally powerful and strange beings in the Hunyuan Space.

At that time, the only cultivator who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him was Yuan.

It can be said that Yuan single-handedly withstood the external pressure and created a safe haven for later cultivators.

It wasn't until the successive appearance of Hunyuan lords that the pressure on Yuan was greatly alleviated.

Although these deeds have not been passed down, we can still get a glimpse of them simply by looking at the factions within the Hunyuan Space.

"What brings Senior Yuan here in person?" Lu Yunhe asked, puzzled.

Although he now possesses some strength, it is all confined to the Origin World. Once outside of that world, he is merely a Supreme Perfection cultivator in terms of combat power.

With that kind of strength, Yuan Chui could wipe out a large group in one breath.

"Hehe, I lost an extremely precious Primordial Treasure in this world. It was a treasure that I painstakingly created at great cost," Yuan said with a smile.

In an instant, Lu Yunhe felt a chill rise from his heart. Even though he was in the Origin World and protected by the supreme rules, he still felt a sense of insecurity.

The Lord of the Origin World claims to be comparable to the Lord of Chaos Origin within his own world.

But Lu Yunhe felt that this so-called "comparable" probably only meant that it wouldn't be defeated in the short term.

If someone were to rely on being the ruler of the world to provoke Lord Hunyuan, they would likely still meet a tragic end.

No matter how strong the essence of the source world is, it cannot change its inherent flaws; it can only guard its home.

Not to mention that Lu Yunhe's current realm has not reached the Hunyuan level. Although he can still control the power of the Origin World, his realm is far inferior to that of a true world-level Hunyuan.

If Yuan were to truly unleash his full power, the Origin World would still inevitably be directly destroyed.

"senior!"

Lu Yunhe was somewhat embarrassed, knowing what the other party meant by the Primordial Treasure. He had long ago integrated it into the origin of the world, manifesting it as the Upper Realm.

That is a true treasure at the Chaos Origin level, its primordial power almost comparable to a small Origin World.

Haha, scared now!

Seeing Lu Yunhe's expression, Yuan burst into laughter, looking completely satisfied.

Looking at Yuan laughing, Lu Yunhe felt even more helpless. He knew that the other party was playing him, but there was nothing he could do. The difference in strength was obvious. Facing someone who could take his life at any time, it was indeed difficult to maintain a casual attitude.

Every move the other person makes makes one think deeply.

"As expected of that old scoundrel, as the Lord of Hunyuan, he actually bullies a Cosmic God like me without any martial ethics," Lu Yunhe thought to himself.

"Never mind, it's not of much use to me anyway. As long as it serves its purpose, that's fine," Yuan said indifferently.

As the oldest Hunyuan lord, Yuan possessed many valuable items, but they were of little use to him.

Therefore, even though handing it over to the God of the Universe would be a huge waste, Yuan didn't care.

If it can play even a small role, then there is some possibility, which is better than having no role at all.

"I came here because I glanced at it and noticed the changes in this Origin World. I thought it was because you had broken through and gained control of the Origin World," Yuan said, explaining his reason for coming.

After all, Yuan had invested valuable treasures into this Origin World, so he couldn't ignore it. He then discovered the changes in the world, thinking that Lu Yunhe had become a world-level Chaos Origin, and planned to come and see for himself.

A world-class Hunyuan, second only to the Hunyuan Lord in strength, his status is naturally not low.

In particular, the number of Hunyuan lords is so small that the status of world-class Hunyuan lords is even higher, which can completely relieve them of a lot of pressure.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, senior. I'm still some time away from breaking through." Lu Yunhe shook his head. Although he could now be considered a world-class Chaos Origin, he had not yet broken through.

"No, no, no, I'm not disappointed at all," Yuan said with a smile, not disappointed at all, but rather delighted.

If it has already become a world-class Hunyuan, then for Yuan it can only be considered as gaining a capable assistant. Considering its previous performance, it is possible that it will become the Lord of Hunyuan.

However, you are already able to control the Origin World even before breaking through to the Hunyuan level, making you comparable to a world-level Hunyuan. What will you be like after you break through?

As is widely known, a Cosmic God can directly break through to the level of a Primordial Lord by proving the Dao through force.

Lu Yunhe's current actions are no less than getting on the bus first and then trying to buy a ticket later.

With sufficient background knowledge and references, the probability of proving one's path through force far exceeds that of others.

Therefore, Yuan was even pleased to discover Lu Yunhe's current state.

The value of a Hunyuan lord is something that no number of world-class Hunyuan lords can compensate for.

It's quite simple. Becoming a world-class Chaos Origin can be achieved through shortcuts, since the Origin World exists and the Origin can provide some assistance.

However, once you become the Lord of Hunyuan, there's really no other way but to rely on yourself.

All Yuan could do was give them as much space as possible, but it had little impact on their essence as lords of Hunyuan; it was just a matter of speed.

At this moment, Lu Yunhe was considered to have the bearing of a lord in Yuan's heart.

“Although you haven’t broken through yet, I’m very satisfied. Please feel free to ask if you need anything,” Yuan said generously.

He didn't have much else on him, just a small amount of assets.

"I don't need anything. I'll have to do this last step myself." Lu Yunhe shook his head.

If it's just a world-class chaotic source, it's only a matter of time for Lu Yunhe, and there are no bottlenecks in the process.

However, if he were to become the Lord of Hunyuan, Yuan would still be of no help to him.

"Indeed, if you want to become the Lord of Hunyuan, you can only rely on yourself."

Yuan Suiyi's expression became much more serious as he thought back to the time when he first broke through to the next level.

“However, given your situation, as a senior, I should still be able to offer some guidance.” Yuan suddenly thought of something.

Each of the various Hunyuan lords has its own area of ​​expertise, and Yuan's greatest strength lies in creating worlds.

Just look at the Realm Heart Continent and the Broken Tooth Mountain Range within it; they are exactly the same as the Source World.

As the first and oldest lord of Hunyuan, Yuan's foundation is arguably the strongest.

And in terms of strength, even in the endless primordial space, it is among the top.

If they were ordinary cosmic gods, Yuan would try his best not to interfere with their cultivation, letting them develop on their own, and there was no need to even give them guidance.

Furthermore, the Dao at the Hunyuan level, especially the Dao cultivated by the cultivators themselves, is something that the Cosmic Gods would not allow to come into contact with, for fear of affecting their originally firm Dao.

The Dao at the Hunyuan level is still too high, and it is easy to cause the Dao to be corrupted.

As for the Dao inherent in those naturally occurring, primordial beings, it is bestowed by Heaven and Earth and lacks the influence of their own will, making it easy for them to comprehend.

However, there are exceptions, such as Lu Yunhe, who is already standing at the threshold of Hunyuan. He could probably break through in an instant.

Moreover, the other side has already found its own path and could break through at any time.

His probing attack just now was no different from that of a world-class Chaos Origin.

To be able to wield such power with the body of a cosmic god undoubtedly means that one's mental will has reached an unparalleled level.

"There is a secret technique that I created myself that is very suitable for you. I hope you can learn from it."

With a flick of his finger, Yuan sent a beam of light directly into Lu Yunhe's brow.

Lu Yunhe was stunned for a moment. The next moment, a flood of information completely filled his mind, making him unable to help but be immersed in it.

Seeing this, Yuan couldn't help but nod in satisfaction. In fact, if becoming the Lord of Hunyuan wasn't something he could only do on his own, the other party would be the most suitable person to become his disciple, and would be fully capable of inheriting his mantle.

However, for the Lord of Hunyuan, the matter of succession is also a very awkward one.

Those who inherit the mantle are too deeply influenced and find it very difficult to break through to the level of Hunyuan Lord; it's better not to inherit at all.

If you don't pass on the Great Dao to your disciple, are you still a disciple?

Fortunately, the Hunyuan Lords are powerful, and none of them have fallen so far, so it doesn't matter whether there is a successor or not.

"Senior Yuan!"

Lu Yunhe's main body immediately fell into deep thought, and his Ultra clone instantly condensed into a physical form, while the receptionist was still present.

"Uh!"

Upon seeing the suddenly appearing Ultraman clone, Gen's expression showed an extremely obvious look of astonishment.

"Good good!"

Yuan Yi said "good" three times in a row, as he had not seen such a surprising junior in a long time.

The form before him gave him the feeling of seeing the source world itself.

This kind of thing can't be achieved by simply possessing the source world.

Unfortunately, due to the obstruction of the supreme rule power, Yuan was unable to discern its essence.

"This trip has been worthwhile!"

It was completely unexpected that so many things about this junior could appear in him, things that even he couldn't see clearly.

As the oldest Lord of Chaos Origin, there are few secrets in the entire Endless Chaos Origin Space that can be kept from him.

“I was saying you could guard the Origin World on your own, but it seems I’ll have to cover for you a little longer,” Yuan said to the Ultra clone.

Lord Hunyuan guards various territories, but due to the special nature of this realm, his origin is complete, making it impossible to create an equivalent clone.

The sheer number of Primordial Ancestors meant that even with their immense strength, guarding their territories was still incredibly stressful, and they couldn't even take care of many Origin Worlds, forced to watch them crumble before their very eyes.

Cultivators originate from the Source World, while naturally born beings of the Primordial Chaos, especially the Primordial Chaos Ancestor, feed entirely on the Source World, creating a fundamental conflict between the two.
