Devouring the Starry Sky: Giants of Light at the beginning

Chapter 950 The Excited Sirius Guest

"The two sides of rules!"

"Spiral ascent?"

Upon hearing Lu Yunhe's philosophy, Yuan instantly understood, since the two of them were indeed quite similar in their understanding of the Great Dao, and therefore shared many similar ideas.

Yuan also follows the same path of rule operation, and his ideals are naturally closer to the rules of Heaven.

Although the cultivator camp only has seven or eight lords, their ideologies are still divided into three parts. One part consists of lords like the Phoenix Lord who care about life and have compassion for the weak.

In the eyes of the Lord of the Netherworld, life is worthy of care, and any sin needs to be punished. He even created a merit system in his own territory.

Lord Wulan admires Lord Minghuang and is also offering his support.

One type is the kind of catastrophic cultivators like Jin and Naigu, who allow slaughter and destruction to take hold, and nurture life within death.

While Lord Moman was not extreme, he still leaned towards the law of the jungle.

The two sides are at odds with each other.

As for the last part, it consists of the middle faction, such as Yuanhe and Xingmang, or the Heavenly Dao faction.

Whether it's life or destruction, it's all part of the world's rules.

Destruction is acceptable, salvation is also acceptable; the choice is left to the cultivator.

Although the starlight also leans towards life, it is situated within the infinite space and time limits, placing this concept at the overall level rather than as a single individual.

"Looking at the source's philosophy, it's very similar to mine, which is great." Yuan was very satisfied.

Both Jin and Minghuang are somewhat extreme. If it weren't for him and Xingmang suppressing them, and if it weren't for the immense pressure from the innate chaotic life forms outside, these two lords would probably have started fighting on their own.

Therefore, in Yuan's view, the more centrists the better, as they can firmly suppress both camps and prevent them from overstepping their bounds.

Although there are only two centrists, Wulan and Naigu are nominally part of the other two factions, but because they are not extreme enough, they are more of a mediator to prevent one side from becoming unbalanced.

“Xingmang, Yuan, and I are arguably the three strongest in our faction. We’ve all chosen the middle ground, so it seems we won’t have to worry about internal conflicts for a long time.” Yuan watched the two arguing lords and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It's normal for a faction to have many factions within it, but there must be a main force; otherwise, it's impossible to unify the power of so many factions.

The path of a spiritual practitioner often reflects their inner inclinations.

Embracing destruction, nature is accustomed to killing; wielding thunder, one cannot bear to see evil.

When the various fundamental principles harmonize with each other, extreme mental states will naturally not arise.

"Just like Brother Yuan!" Jin smiled at Lu Yunhe.

Although they are not catastrophic cultivators like him, they are also not extremists when it comes to life, so they can still cooperate with each other when the time comes.

As long as you don't indiscriminately slaughter in front of the other side, the impact won't be significant.

"Pity!"

Lord Minghuang looked somewhat dejected; it seemed she still couldn't find a suitable companion.

Indeed, such an extreme approach to life is difficult for powerful practitioners to cultivate the corresponding mindset for.

Every powerful cultivator inevitably faces various forms of killing on their path to rise to power.

Unless the group is limited, for example, in the eyes of the Minghuang Ancestor, beings born from the Chaos Origin are not considered human, so indiscriminate killing does not have any impact.

Of course, even without limiting the group, it is difficult to find "good people" or even beings who do not kill much among the naturally primordial beings.

No naturally occurring, primordial being could resist such temptation when it comes to the origin of the world.

Seeing the arguing Lord Jin and Lord Minghuang, Lu Yunhe understood.

Where there are people, there will be struggle, and even lords are no exception.

Although they can unite against external forces, no lord will back down when it comes to their own principles and beliefs.

After all, they are immortal beings, and there is no possibility of them backing down.

As for Lu Yunhe himself, he did indeed prefer the operation of the Heavenly Dao world.

The law of the jungle prevails, and destruction follows its natural cycle; there is no need to interfere with this normal cycle of the world and the cycle of life.

But he himself is not the rule of the world, but life itself, so naturally he must stand on the side of life.

Life and the world revolve endlessly, but they always spiral upwards in the direction of life.

“Yuan, you have also cultivated the Path of Destruction. Let’s explore the Abyss of Destruction together.”

The conflict between the Golden Lord and the Phoenix has a long history, and neither of them can convince the other, so there is no need to elaborate here.

"The Abyss of Destruction!"

Lu Yunhe nodded. This was also a mysterious place in the endless primordial space, of a high level, and full of opportunities.

For those who cultivate the path of destruction, this is also a rare treasure trove.

Subsequently, the other lords also extended invitations to Lu Yunhe to explore various mysterious places together.

Unlike Lord Wulan, who only possesses strong defense, Lu Yunhe not only has incredible defense but also a wide variety of skills and can cooperate with other lords.

No lord would refuse such a versatile individual.

“According to the rules of the cultivator camp, only within one’s own absolute territory can one arbitrarily set rules according to one’s own ideas.”

“No matter what rules are set, the other lords must not interfere,” Yuan reminded them.

Such rules serve two purposes: firstly, to cultivate a large number of cultivators in the Origin World, and secondly, to reduce clashes between the two sides, keeping them confined to their own core territories.

The new lord will eventually be born from the vast source world. Once it is tainted by the lord's will, it will seriously affect the cultivators in the world.

If absolute territories are not granted to allow lords to promote their own ideologies, the entire cultivator camp would likely fall apart.

This is equivalent to taking a small portion of the vast territory of cultivators and letting the lords play with it, which is also a kind of compromise.

Even the highest-ranking beings, such as lords, cannot do whatever they want and there are times when they need to compromise.

"Of course, if you can defeat other lords with your strength, you can also promote your ideas in their absolute territory."

Upon hearing Yuan's words, many lords shook their heads helplessly.

To subdue a Hunyuan lord? That would require surpassing the opponent by an entire dimension.

But does such a being exist in the current Chaos Origin Space? There isn't even one that surpasses the Progenitor level.

Even the Star Radiance is only slightly stronger in terms of power; it's not safe to say that it completely surpasses other lords.

Therefore, even if their ideologies differed, the lords could only compromise with each other, try their best to find common ground while reserving differences, and not interfere with each other's private actions.

"The next thing to do..." Yuan hesitated, uncertainly saying, "Logically speaking, the birth of every lord should be accompanied by a grand celebration at the Hunyuan level."

To be precise, the birth of an immortal being is always accompanied by a grand celebration. Even opposing forces will come to celebrate.

After all, as eternal beings, they may have conflicts in terms of camp and ideology, but neither can do anything about the other. They will see each other all the time and may have to spend countless years together in the future, so they will also show each other some respect.

"Let's talk about it when I've taken it a step further," Lu Yunhe said with a smile, since he didn't care much about these celebrations anyway.

"Alright, it shouldn't be too long!" Yuan nodded, mainly because the previous seven lords had already accomplished it, and the new lord had even saved the camp from danger.

It's really not good if you don't give them enough face.

As each matter was implemented, the strategy, determined by the collective will of the eight lords, was naturally unstoppable.

The cultivator faction also provides a lot of help to the lords, and the lords do not deliberately make things difficult for them with names. They are also trying their best to compromise and suppress conflicts.

……

In the original place, in the cave where Lu Yunhe was located, a group of Hunyuan experts had already gathered together.

The lords acted swiftly; once things were decided, they were promptly issued and implemented, and direct orders from above were never delayed.

Therefore, the Hunyuan experts who already knew about his arrangements also took the initiative to wait in front of the cave.

If we don't wait in advance, do we have to wait for the lord to personally invite us?

"I remember that the lord also came to the place of origin as a world-class chaotic source, but I didn't expect that he would reach the peak in the blink of an eye."

A thin, elderly man, who had achieved high rank in the Hunyuan school, was quite excited, his joy evident in his words.

Originally, I just wanted a world-class Chaos Origin from the Dark World, but I didn't expect to win such a big prize and actually get a Chaos Origin Lord.

In the past, the Dark World Cluster was just an ordinary location, but now it is the absolute territory of a lord.

As direct subordinates within the Hunyuan realm, they are merely high-level Hunyuan, and their status will rise accordingly.

Moreover, only the absolute territories of the lords were extensively developed, while the rest of the territories were left to roam freely.

In such a prosperous place, even for "retirement and old age," the benefits are much higher.

If they perform well and gain the lord's favor, they might even advance further and become a world-class Hunyuan.

In addition to the advanced Hunyuan, 22 world-class Hunyuan are also waiting outside.

"It is said that the Source Lord chose another path to become a lord in a short period of time for the sake of the safety of his faction, so he does not have the characteristic of immortality at this moment."

"I wonder if this new path will be easier than becoming a lord."

"It is said that they follow the path of the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos, and may even be able to give birth to a life core..."

Compared to the higher-level Hunyuan, the world-class Hunyuan have much better access to information.

The news of the most special lord, possessing a life core, also spread throughout the Hunyuan Space and could not be kept secret at all.

In response, the world-class Chaos Origin cultivators in the cultivator camp also became eager.

Having weaknesses isn't always a bad thing.

Cultivator lords are immortal beings, and the difficulty of breaking through them is astonishing, enough to make many world-level Chaos Origin feel despair.

However, if one could find the path to becoming the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos, it might be simpler, allowing cultivators who originally had no hope of breaking through to take another step forward.

The Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan was not weak; even without the characteristic of eternity, it would be difficult for him to die.

Although many Primordial Ancestors of Chaos died at the hands of cultivators, the vast majority of them were either accidents or acts of restraint. Later on, even the seven lords found it difficult to kill other Primordial Ancestors of Chaos in the war.

To date, no progenitor or lord has been able to kill another progenitor in single combat.

The main challenge is that they can escape or have ways to survive, making them very difficult to kill.

It's not that the cultivators don't want to lower the requirements, it's just that they simply can't.

Therefore, these world-class Chaos Sources are even more excited than the higher-level Chaos Sources of those Dark World Groups.

As the Lord of Hunyuan, he would not hide his lineage, but as a direct subordinate, he would certainly receive more guidance.

Just as the many powerful beings of the Hunyuan realm were exchanging ideas, an invisible wave descended, instantly silencing everyone.

The power that could crush everyone with just its aura also proclaimed the identity of the newcomer.

A man in white descended from the void and landed in front of the crowd.

"Greetings, Lord!" The many powerful figures from the Chaos Origin realm bowed respectfully.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar figures in the crowd, Lu Yunhe smiled slightly.

Lu Yunhe had also discussed the world-class Hunyuan that was before him during previous exchange meetings.

Unexpectedly, the balance of power between the two sides reversed in the blink of an eye.

"Lord of Hunyuan!"

Looking at the lofty figure ahead, Candlelight felt a surge of emotion. It was fortunate that he hadn't opposed him back then, otherwise he might have faced some kind of punishment.

"Too fast, simply too fast! It's only been a few epochs since he became a world-class Chaos Origin!" Candlelight roared in his heart.

"Get up. I have no interest in managing the territory. You'll have to take care of it from now on," Lu Yunhe said with a smile.

In the future, our vast territory will need to be managed by people like this.

Numerous cultivators born in countless source worlds and billions of ordinary worlds, resources from naturally nurtured rare mineral deposits... and naturally born chaotic life forms that are occasionally conceived in the chaotic space...

Whether it's guiding, collecting, or annihilating... the high-level Chaos Origin beings on the cultivator's side are not enough to handle all these matters, and they still need to rely on those naturally born Chaos Origin beings who submit to them to barely manage.

As for the lords, although they could spare a fraction of their attention to handle this, even a fraction of their attention is precious to them, and there's no need to get bogged down in these trivial matters.

"Your affairs will soon be subject to change. World-class Hunyuan and Sirius Guest will remain, while the rest of the high-level Hunyuan may leave on their own!"

In the Hunyuan Space, lords and ancestors are the rule-makers, higher-level Hunyuan are the lower-level managers, and world-level Hunyuan are equivalent to the position of general manager.

With excitement in his heart, amidst the envious gazes of a group of high-level Hunyuan experts, Sirius stayed behind with 22 world-class Hunyuan.

"Sirius, you are only one step away from becoming a world-class Chaos Origin."

Lu Yunhe looked at Tianlangke and slowly said, "I obtained some resources from other lords. You can take a portion later; it will be enough to help you break through."

Because of the Life Core, Lu Yunhe also obtained some precious resources from other lords before leaving, which can be considered his contribution to saving the territory.

"Thank you for your guidance, Lord. I will certainly not disappoint you," said Sirius, his expression excited.

Although he was a lone wolf, he could still act as a watchdog in front of his lord.
