Master of Devouring Stars

"what?"

"Invite Li Ze to join the Eternal Land? No way!!!"

"He hasn't broken through to the Hunyuan Lord level, so he can't join the Eternal Land!"

As soon as the strange cube finished speaking, the Dragon Lizard Ancestor and the Destruction Ancestor of the Eternal Land's innate chaotic life force voiced their opposition.

Although the Progenitor of Destruction and the Infinite Serpent's physical bodies were destroyed and they were not at their peak, what came to the Eternal Land at this time was only their avatar, which did not have any impact.

"What right do you have to object?" Wu sneered, "Even if you self-destructed your physical body, you still couldn't defeat Li Ze. If he can't join the Eternal Land, are you going to withdraw too?"

"correct."

The starlight on the throne beside Wu said calmly, "You are all qualified to have a seat in the Eternal Land, so why can't Li Ze?"

"I believe Ze's strength is enough to secure a place in the Eternal Land."

“Although Li Ze has not broken through to the lord level, in terms of strength, he is no less than some of the lords present here, and I agree.”

"Hmph, you dragon lizards don't agree, do you want Li Ze to fight you again?" As soon as Wu Hexingmang finished speaking, the other lords in the cultivator camp, except for Yuan, also spoke up.

The words of the cultivator faction lords were met with nods of agreement from the other strange life form lords present.

Once you reach their level, everything else is meaningless; only strength matters.

If Li Ze did not possess Lord-level combat power, then no matter how much they argued, they would not agree to Li Ze joining the Eternal Land.

But now that Li Ze has not only demonstrated combat power no less than that of a lord, but has also gone through actual combat with the Infinite Orochi, they naturally no longer have any thoughts of opposition.

"Hiss, everyone!"

The Infinite Serpent said coldly, "Each throne in the Eternal Land is not just a simple spot. Don't forget, each throne in the Eternal Land represents a number of spots in the Eternal Star Ring. If Li Ze is allowed to join, the original thirty-two spots will be divided into thirty-three."

"At that time, everyone's interests will be harmed."

With that, the Infinite Serpent turned and scanned all the Chaos Lords around the round table: "The Eternal Star Ring is about to open, and my Chaos Life Faction is unwilling to give up these spots. You can decide for yourselves."

Upon hearing the words of the Infinite Serpent, the other strange lifeforms, the Chaos Lords, on their thrones fell silent.

Although they all agreed that Li Ze should join the Eternal Land, they were unwilling to give up their spots in the opening of the Eternal Star Ring, because some of the treasures within the Eternal Star Ring would also be helpful to them, the Lords of Chaos.

After a moment of silence.

“Yuan, how about this?” A strange, tree-like life form turned to Yuan, who had remained silent in the cultivator camp, and said, “We can agree to Li Ze joining the Eternal Land now, but we will not allocate him a spot for the opening of the Eternal Star Ring this time.”

“That’s right, Yuan. Li Ze hasn’t truly broken through to the Lord level yet. We can give him a seat in the Eternal Land ahead of time for your sake, but we’ll give him the spot to enter the Eternal Star Ring when he actually breaks through. How about that?”

"Yes, we've already allocated all the slots for the Eternal Star Ring event. It wouldn't be right to redistribute them now, would it?"

“I also think this is appropriate,” other strange life lords chimed in.

"Hehe." Yuan's laughter rang out, interrupting the other strange life form lords.

"Everyone, this meeting of the Eternal Land was not proposed by our cultivator camp, nor did we actively demand that Li Ze join the Eternal Land!"

"You were the ones who initiated this meeting!"

Yuan's words caused a hint of embarrassment to appear on the faces of the strange life forms who had spoken earlier.

“You all know what you’re up to,” Yuan continued. “It’s nothing more than wanting Li Ze to join the Eternal Land, thereby restraining him and preventing him from attacking beings below the rank of lord at will.”

"I understand your thoughts, but I haven't called you out on them!"

"but now."

Yuan's voice suddenly changed: "You want Li Ze to join the Eternal Land and be restricted, but you don't want him to share in the benefits that rightfully belong to him. Is there such a good deal?"

"Since you are unwilling to allocate any of the slots for the opening of the Eternal Star Ring to Li Ze, then the proposal to have him join the Eternal Land is hereby abandoned!"

"Hehe, with Li Ze's strength, he can make a move at will when the Eternal Star Ring arrives. Let's see how many of those world-class Chaos Origin and ordinary Chaos Origin Ancestors you sent in can come out!"

After speaking, Yuan stopped talking, closed his eyes slightly, and waited for the other Hunyuan lords to make their choices.

Meanwhile, the other six lords in the cultivator camp also sneered at the other strange life lords without saying a word.

The Eternal Land fell silent instantly.

The other strange life lords looked at each other, a hint of helplessness flashing in their eyes. Even the four Primordial Ancestors of the Primordial Chaos Life Faction remained silent because of Yuan's words.

a long time.

“Hoo~ Yuan.” The cube-shaped Hunyuan Lord who initially suggested that Li Ze join the Eternal Land spoke up again: “'Changqing' was just a suggestion. Since you don’t agree, forget it. We will follow the old procedure and invite Li Ze to join the Eternal Land while also giving him corresponding benefits.”

"We will allocate a certain number of slots to him when the Eternal Star Ring opens this time. What do you think?"

"Yes, since Li Ze has the ability, we should give him the corresponding status!"

"I agree to help Li Ze condense the thirty-third throne in the Eternal Land!"

"I also agree to the invitation."

As the voice of the cube-shaped Chaos Lord faded, the other strange Chaos Lords of the Eternal Land also spoke up. Even the Infinite Serpent and the others, who had previously vehemently opposed Li Ze joining the Eternal Land, remained silent.

As Yuan said.

Their previous opposition to Li Ze was merely a test; they wanted to restrict Li Ze's entry into the Eternal Land without giving the cultivators any more benefits.

But Yuan's opposition, which even exposed their plan, made it clear to them that their previous plan could not succeed.

The Eternal Star Ring is about to open. If the cultivator faction really doesn't intend to let Li Ze join the Eternal Land and allows him to act recklessly, then the gains of the other factions during the opening of the Eternal Star Ring will be greatly reduced.

This is clearly not what they want to see.

Upon hearing that the other strange life lords had stopped causing trouble, Yuan and the other six Hunyuan lords from the cultivator camp all smiled.

Although they had previously threatened Li Ze that he would act arbitrarily when the Eternal Star Ring was activated, Yuan and the others knew that it was just a threat.

If Li Ze really does that, then all the other Chaos Lords in the entire Infinite Chaos Space will become enemies of the cultivator camp.

With the current strength of the cultivator camp, it is not enough to withstand the siege of so many Hunyuan lords.

Yuan smiled and nodded slightly: "That's the right thing to do. I'll inform Li Ze and bring him to the Eternal Land!" In the Origin Continent, after the battle outside the Hidden Spirit Domain, Li Ze's human body had already returned quietly, leaving only the Golden Crow body to continue devouring the power of the Origin World's origin.

He is now close to reaching the limit of accumulating the power of the universe's origin within his body; the Golden Crow can simply devour it.

Inside the manor where Li Ze lived.

"Ok?"

"Senior Yuan sent a message that I have been invited to enter the Eternal Land?" Li Ze smiled slightly, a thought flashing through his mind.

hum~
The space-time ahead trembled, and countless points of light condensed, transforming into the shape of Yuan.

"Senior Yuan," Li Ze said respectfully as he stood up.

“Li Ze,” Yuan said with a smile, “I’ve come to take you into the Land of Eternity.”

"What's going on? I haven't even truly broken through to the Chaos Lord level, yet I already possess a throne in the Eternal Land?" Li Ze asked in confusion. "Did all those strange life lords agree to this?"

"Hehe, you disagree? They'd love for you to join the Eternal Land." Yuan Qing laughed. "This time, it wasn't our cultivators' camp that suggested you join the Eternal Land; it was them who took the initiative."

"What?" Li Ze asked in surprise.

“You heard me right, it was those strange life lords who proposed it.” Yuan said again, “Actually, inviting you to join the Eternal Land now would be somewhat beneficial to my cultivator camp, but it would be even more beneficial to other camps.”

"You also know how powerful the Hunyuan Lord level beings are. Below the lord level, apart from the ordinary Hunyuan ancestors of the innate Hunyuan life camp, other world-class Hunyuan are like children in front of the lord."

"It would be too easy for Lord Hunyuan to kill a world-class Hunyuan."

"Therefore, almost all the Hunyuan lords in the various factions have a tacit understanding that as long as a Hunyuan lord holds a throne in the Eternal Land, he cannot arbitrarily attack any life below the lord level."

“This proposal to have you join the Eternal Land is their way of trying to restrict and limit you,” Yuan explained.

"I see." Li Ze nodded slightly, then said, "Can I not join?"

"Haha, sure." Yuan laughed. "However, I think you should still join. After all, joining the Eternal Land isn't just about restrictions and limitations; there are many benefits as well."

"Didn't I mention to you before that the Eternal Ring outside the Eternal Land is about to open? Only those who have a seat in the Eternal Land can share the entry slots for the Eternal Ring."

“Originally, there were thirty-two thrones in the Eternal Land, and the number of places to enter the Eternal Star Ring was divided into thirty-two. Now that you have joined, my cultivator camp will naturally have more places.”

"Besides that, there are other benefits, which you will all know once you join the Eternal Land."

At this point, Yuan Lue paused and said, "Moreover, your joining the Eternal Land now will reassure the other Hunyuan Lords in the Hunyuan Space. After all, your strength is too great. If there are no constraints, they will not feel at ease. If things go wrong, my cultivator camp will be surrounded by enemies."

"In that case," Li Ze nodded slightly, "I will join the Eternal Land."

“Okay, I’ll take you there now.” Yuan nodded slightly and then waved gently.

A humming sound rippled through space and time, and a curtain of light formed within the manor.

"Let's go." Yuan said, and took the lead in stepping into the portal, with Li Ze following closely behind.

The void beyond the eternal land.

A slight distortion occurred in spacetime, forming a spacetime vortex.

The next moment, Li Ze and Yuan's clones emerged from the spacetime vortex.

"Ok?"

As soon as he stepped out of the vortex, Li Ze sensed the special nature of this void. In this void, time was completely still, space was terrifyingly stable, and numerous Daoist rhythms rippled, comparable to the clarity of the Dao fluctuations he felt when he devoured the origin of the source world.

Li Ze looked up and saw a piece of land floating not far away, with every grain of soil on that land radiating an extremely powerful pressure.

Li Ze could clearly sense that even world-class Chaos Origin beings would find this oppressive force unbearable, and if high-level Chaos Origin beings were to set foot on that continent, their bodies would be instantly annihilated.

In the center of the continent, there is a round table, around which are thirty-three thrones. On thirty-two of these thrones sit beings of various forms, exuding an aura of supreme power.

Only one throne, located between the Blood Lord and the Wood Lord of the cultivator faction, remained empty.

Li Ze knew that this was the land of eternity.

"Ok?"

The moment Li Ze and Yuan's clone appeared, the thirty-two Hunyuan Lords and Hunyuan Ancestors who had been waiting in the Eternal Land all turned to look at them.

"Li Ze, welcome to the Eternal Land!" came the voice of the cube-shaped, strange life form, the Primal Lord. "Please take your seat!"

The other Hunyuan lords and Hunyuan ancestors either smiled or looked at Li Ze with indifferent expressions. At this moment, even the ancestors of the Hunyuan Life Faction who had a grudge against Li Ze did not show any opposition.

"Go," the Yuan clone said softly.

"Hmm." Li Ze nodded slightly and took a step forward.

The next moment, they landed on the land of the Eternal Land.

An immense sense of oppression then acted upon Li Ze's body. With a slight movement of his divine power, he resisted this force, which was enough to annihilate a Hunyuan expert.

With another step, Li Ze appeared next to the empty throne.

Then, Li Ze plopped down on the throne.

A massive amount of information instantly appeared in Li Ze's mind, which he then sorted out.

This information pertains to the benefits and obligations that Li Ze will enjoy upon joining the Eternal Land.

The Eternal Star Ring slot that Yuan mentioned earlier is one of them.

"Phew~ As expected, many of the most top-tier opportunities in the Infinite Chaos Space are in the hands of these Chaos Lords." Li Ze sighed to himself, "The Eternal Star Ring quota is just one of the most common opportunities. These opportunities may not be of much help to me, but they are extremely precious to other Chaos experts and even Chaos Lords."

As you ascend to different levels, you will see different scenery.

Previously, Li Ze had not reached the level of a Hunyuan Lord. Even the seven Hunyuan Lords in the cultivator camp could not possibly tell him about the truly precious opportunities in the Hunyuan Space that would be useful to a Hunyuan Lord.

These opportunities are not unique to the cultivator camp.

Almost all opportunities useful to lords in the Infinite Chaos Space are jointly controlled by the thirty-two Chaos Lords of the Eternal Land. (End of Chapter)
