Devouring the Starry Sky: Giants of Light at the beginning

Chapter 924 Sirius Guest

"Thank you very much, Senior Yuan!"

Lifted up by an invisible force, the power was not actually strong, but the many high-level Chaos Origin beings present did not dare to resist at all, and they all stood up straight again.

Tens of thousands of advanced Hunyuan beings watched the figure on the stage, each with a smile on their face and a humble expression.

These advanced Chaos Origin beings are all capable of ruling over a region of Origin World, or even controlling a Sacred Realm, and they also command a vast number of naturally born Chaos Origin beings under their command.

Within his own world, he was even the nominal ruler of the world, the master of a region.

But now, facing the true ruler of the world, they could only bow their heads and submit, without the slightest complaint.

"I dare not accept the title of senior; I am merely going ahead," Lu Yunhe said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the leading high-level Chaos Origin beings quickly shook their heads and said, "We deserve it. Time is nothing but an illusion. In cultivation, those who attain enlightenment are respected."

The advanced Chaos Origin beings present had all cultivated for far longer than Lu Yunhe, some even exceeding the cultivation world of a Lord Origin.

After all, once you reach the ultimate realm, there is no such thing as lifespan unless there is external interference or you do something reckless.

Unfortunately, time cannot bridge the gap in cultivation. In fact, the more one cultivates, the more one understands just how unattainable the difference between realms truly is.

Therefore, those beings who have cultivated for an excessively long time have already psychologically placed themselves in a lower position when facing those in high positions.

Spiritual practice is like rowing against the current; if you can't burn yourself out quickly, you'll inevitably fall into the abyss of your soul.

Like these advanced Hunyuan life forms, their ambition is probably not even as good as those beings on Hunyuan Island who have not yet transcended their limitations.

There's no hope. Just give up. No matter how much you cultivate yourself in your entire life, this is all you'll ever amount to. You might as well go find a powerful backer and enjoy endless time.

Of course, Lu Yunhe didn't mean to look down on him. Even he himself didn't know if he would also have this kind of mentality if he reached the limit of his cultivation one day and couldn't break through for a long time.
But at least for now, he can look down on these advanced Chaos Origin beings in terms of both strength and even mindset.

However, there are some among these people who are worth taking a second look at.

Lu Yunhe glanced at a silver-haired, three-eyed man in the front row of the crowd. Even though he was mixed in with the crowd, his head was held high like that of a wolf king.

"My name is Tianlangke, and I pay my respects to the Lord of the World." As a high-level Chaos Origin Lifeform, Tianlangke's ability to read people's expressions was naturally at its peak, and he also noticed the Lord of the World's gaze.

Although you have ambition, you also need to save face in public.

"Tianlangke, not bad!" Lu Yunhe nodded slightly, which could be considered as acknowledging the other party to some extent.

"Thank you, Senior Xie Yuan. I am still far from being good enough." Tianlangke's expression was solemn, but his eyes also revealed a hint of pride and regret.

Of the tens of thousands of advanced Hunyuan beings present, only he had the potential to break through to the world level.

Although he also broke through with the help of the Hunyuan bloodline, Tianlangke had comprehended more than 70% of it before the breakthrough and minimized the influence of the bloodline on his will. Therefore, he was qualified to go further and even received personal guidance from Yuan.

Now, with the help of the dimensional power of the soul enhanced by the advanced Hunyuan level, Sirius has also comprehended 68% of the "world-class Hunyuan bloodline".

For cultivators, the only ways to transcend the limitations of their current state are to ascend to heaven in one step, control the Origin World, and integrate into the Primordial Bloodline.

With the help of a high-dimensional creation like the Hunyuan Bloodline, the difficulty of breaking through will indeed be greatly reduced.

Of course, this is only a relative reduction, and in order to prepare for the future path of cultivation, practitioners will also engage in cultivation-specific training.

Instead of directly integrating into the Hunyuan bloodline, one should first try to understand the essence of the Hunyuan bloodline and comprehend its fundamental nature.

If one comprehends the Hunyuan bloodline to the point of 50%, there is a high probability of breaking through after integration, but one will be subject to significant pollution of will and bloodline.

If one can comprehend 70% of it and then integrate the Hunyuan bloodline into their body, they can not only break through directly, but also minimize the pollution of their memories and bloodline, and have the opportunity to advance further.

In other words, Sirius could at this moment try to integrate into a world-class Hunyuan bloodline and attempt to break through to the world-class level; a 70% chance is just a safe bet.

With this qualification, Sirius naturally has the confidence to face world-class opponents.

"I should have broken through first." A thought flashed through Sirius's mind, but he quickly dismissed it.

If it were just for a fleeting whim, or to compare oneself with others, to ruin one's future, even Sirius wouldn't do such a thing.

Seeing that someone had become a manager of the Dark World group, Sirius felt less conflicted.

"I want to use my own strength to comprehend as much of the essence of the Hunyuan bloodline as possible."

"It won't be long before I'm standing on it too," Sirius said ambitiously.

Watching Lu Yunhe and Tianlangke's exchange, the other high-level Hunyuan life forms also showed envy, but who could blame them when Tianlangke's potential was indeed stronger?

“Senior Yuan, Brother Tianlangke is indeed the one among us with the best chance of breaking through to the World-level Chaos Origin Realm. Unlike us, we still can’t see any hope of breaking through.” A thin old man in the front row sighed.

"There's always a way out. As long as you still have the will to climb upwards, there's still a chance." Lu Yunhe offered a small measure of comfort upon hearing this.

If time were stretched to infinity, everyone would have a chance, since there is no lifespan limit.

"Thank you for your kind words, senior. We will certainly work hard and live up to your expectations," the thin old man quickly expressed his attitude.

To be honest, deep down they didn't have much hope. They had lived for so long that they had a clear understanding of cultivation matters and were more concerned with life.

For example, by clinging to someone powerful, one can make their life more comfortable.

The Dark World Group does not have its own world-class Chaos Source, so it is managed by other world-class entities and is naturally not valued.

Furthermore, the most talented and promising among them, Sirius, ignored them, causing them to have a very difficult time over the years, being neglected and sidelined in every aspect.

Therefore, upon discovering that a world-class Chaos Origin had been born in the Dark World Group, the thin old man quickly led everyone to pay a visit and took the lead in expressing his attitude.

Faced with the actions of the thin old man and others, Tianlang Ke, who had not yet broken through, was helpless. As long as he had not broken through, there would be a gap in status, and he would have to bow his head.

In this situation, Lu Yunhe might not care who came, but he would definitely pay close attention to who didn't come.

In order to avoid provoking the malice of his current boss and his former senior colleague who might become his future colleague, Sirius had no choice but to come along as well.

"Senior Yuan has a lot of influence. We rarely get to see Brother Tianlangke at our usual gatherings."

"Perhaps Brother Tianlangke is too busy and can't find the time."

"Sigh, we still haven't worked hard enough, which is why Brother Tianlangke looks down on us." Some higher-level Chaos Origin beings whispered among themselves, seemingly because Lu Yunhe was easier to talk to.

Previously, many high-level Hunyuan were dissatisfied with Tianlangke's arrogance. Now that they had finally managed to get on his good side, they naturally had to put a bad word to his superior.

People like Tianlangke, who have a rebellious streak, are nowhere near as loyal as these people.

Although they have all transcended the confines of society, sometimes they are no different from ordinary people.

After all, cultivation is not about severing one's mind and nature. No matter how strong one becomes, it is difficult to change one's personality, and one may even become more extreme.

Hearing the crowd's discussion, a hint of disdain flashed through Tianlangke's mind. They only dared to talk about him behind his back, and didn't even dare to cause trouble for him to his face.

It was only because the Lord of the World was present this time that, under normal circumstances, even if he showed a bad attitude to their faces, these people would not dare to say anything.

"Alright, how dare you speak nonsense in front of Senior Yuan?" After the discussion started, the thin old man quickly scolded him and then apologized to Lu Yunhe.

"We were so overjoyed to see Senior Yuan that we misspoke. We hope you will forgive us," the thin old man said, and many high-level Chaos Origin beings immediately lowered their heads.

"It's alright, it's just a formality, no need to be so formal." Lu Yunhe shook his head, not caring at all, because he really didn't care about these people.

"Thank you, Lord Yuan!"

After some communication, although there were some problems along the way, the two sides became quite familiar with each other.

Lu Yunhe also learned about the specific affairs of these Hunyuan beings: guarding one holy realm after another, cultivating the beings of billions of worlds, as well as patrolling the infinite Hunyuan space, long-term vigilance missions, missions to explore rare treasures, mining and excavation missions, and so on...

These people do almost all sorts of miscellaneous tasks. However, since the cultivator camp is so large, their main task sometimes becomes supervising the enslaved innate chaotic life forms, which is then subcontracted layer by layer.

Regarding these matters, Lu Yunhe could only say that the lords probably arranged these people to have something to do because they were afraid that they would be too idle.

With the ability of Hunyuan life forms to create countless clones, the productive force of a top-tier expert can be greater than that of an entire race.

Just like now, Lu Yunhe could easily create a few clones that would do a better job than these tens of thousands of high-level Chaos Origin life forms, but there's no need for him to compete with them for their livelihood.

Moreover, entrusting these things to them can also temper their minds and wills, which can be considered as a way to refine their hearts in the mortal world.

Then the lords thought the same thing, and so it went down layer by layer, resulting in the fact that in the vast territory of cultivators, those who actually did the work were all people at the bottom of the Hunyuan level.

More than 80 million advanced primordial beings and 50 billion who submitted are scattered across thousands of world groups, just like a few waves in a vast ocean, which is simply too many to handle.

The fact that the number of world clusters hasn't decreased despite being tormented by naturally occurring chaotic life forms for so long makes it clear just how large a world cluster truly is.

“We, the higher-level Chaos Origin beings of the Dark World Group, are not valued and can only do dirty and tiring work.”

Taking advantage of the atmosphere, many advanced Hunyuan life forms also poured out their grievances to Lu Yunhe.

If even advanced Chaos Origin life forms can complain of being tired, then they must be quite tired.

After all, doing less work and getting more pay is everyone's goal, even the Hunyuan life forms are not immune to this, and even the higher Hunyuan life forms want to make money while slacking off.

Of course, it's also possible that the Yuan Guan is in a more relaxed position. If it were a certain Destruction Lord, these people would probably not dare to say anything.

In fact, given the unique nature of the cultivator camp, these people's complaints are quite unreasonable.

It's very simple. The value of their work is truly less than the rewards they receive, and the lords have always been using it to supplement their household income.

It's just that it's been going on for so long that sometimes it feels like it's only natural.

"Lord Yuan, we are stuck at the advanced level of Chaos Origin Life and cannot make any progress. Please give us some guidance."

As they chatted, the advanced Hunyuan life form hoped that Lu Yunhe could give them some pointers, even if it wouldn't be helpful.

In addition, guidance from one's immediate supervisor may sometimes be based on the same principles, but the person giving the advice will be different, resulting in different feedback and varying levels of motivation.

You might not listen to what your colleagues say, but if your boss says something, you have to try your best. That's just human nature.

Even Sirius's eyes lit up. He knew he would be able to attempt a breakthrough soon, but he would also need guidance from a world-class Hunyuan to give him more confidence.

Even a slight fluctuation in one's mindset can have a significant impact at crucial moments.

“I didn’t break through using the Hunyuan bloodline, so my insights probably won’t be of much significance to you,” Lu Yunhe said.

"No, no, no, we're already stuck because of our own Chaos Origin Bloodline. Other directions might actually be more effective for us!" the crowd quickly said.

“Since you’re interested, I’ll give you some pointers based on my understanding.” Lu Yunhe pondered the concept of the Hunyuan bloodline for a moment.

Although he attained enlightenment by possessing the source world, he also studied the Hunyuan bloodline of the Infinite Serpent clan and his understanding of the Dao of Bloodlines was not low.

"The Great Dao is one, and in my view, the essence of the Hunyuan Bloodline is still the original Great Dao. If you simply try to comprehend the Hunyuan Bloodline while ignoring the Great Dao within it, you will find it difficult to grasp its essence," Lu Yunhe said slowly.

"If you have reached a bottleneck in your understanding of the Hunyuan bloodline, you might as well go back and start from the very basics to understand it anew."

“The fundamental paths are interconnected. If one path is stuck, one can find a way to understand it by looking at other fundamental paths. Even if one cannot comprehend it, some concepts may still be helpful.”

As Lu Yunhe spoke to the crowd, he also sorted out his own cultivation path.

"If the Hunyuan bloodline can influence willpower, then we should find a way to improve our own willpower. If our willpower can surpass that of the Hunyuan bloodline, then we need not worry about being affected by it."

"You have endless time and abundant resources, so you can try all kinds of cultivation paths."

Even if the cultivators' camp is defeated, to be honest, it won't affect them. They can just stay in the original place obediently.

……

"Thank you for your advice, sir!"

After Lu Yunhe finished speaking, he also answered everyone's questions about cultivation one by one.

Although it seems like I've gained some insights, the actual effects remain to be seen.

Lu Yunhe then asked everyone to share their insights on cultivation, which could be considered a form of exchange.

Well, these people are really only suited for tedious work. They should just work honestly and not think about the future. Let them and the lords handle the future.
