Devouring the Starry Sky: Giants of Light at the beginning

Chapter 966 Educating the Innate Primordial Life
The kneeling, advanced Chaos Origin beings suddenly felt a power flow into their bodies, grasping their life cores and forming an incomparably mysterious rune.

It even penetrated into their soul memories through their life cores.

Faced with Lord Yuan's actions, the advanced Chaos Origin beings who chose to submit dared not resist, allowing this power to probe their memories.

"The life core has been refined!"

Many advanced Chaos Origin life forms sensed the power that was binding their life cores; a mere touch would be enough to destroy their life cores and take their lives.

These advanced Chaos Origin beings had long anticipated this, and the name of the evil cultivator had already spread throughout the entire Endless Chaos Origin Space.

Apart from those truly isolated from the world, or the newly conceived primordial beings, the other beings are also aware of the evil deeds committed by the cultivators.

Any naturally born primordial life form that submits must have its life core refined before it can be integrated into the ranks of cultivators; otherwise, it will only face certain death.

The organization responsible for this propaganda was naturally the Innate Chaotic Life Force. The result was fine, but they overlooked the harm it caused to cultivators.

Despite being somewhat prepared, many advanced Chaos Origin beings still felt immense sorrow when the moment truly arrived.

Although it's better to live a miserable life than to die, becoming a slave was still unacceptable to them.

"Alas, the life core has already been refined, it's a fait accompli, there's no use thinking about it anymore," many advanced Chaos Origin beings comforted them.

"Wait, my life core wasn't refined?"

Just then, some advanced Chaos Origin beings couldn't help but look up, staring in astonishment at the high-ranking lord in front of them.

"what?"

Even with the lord present, the many high-level Chaos Origin beings couldn't help but start discussing it.

"Why? Why don't they need to have their life cores refined?"

It's not scarcity that's the problem, but inequality. If everyone had their life cores refined and become slaves, that would be acceptable. But the fact that some people don't have to become slaves is unacceptable to them.

As for the Hunyuan Lord's failure, it would be better to hope that the three progenitors would come to their rescue.

Many Chaos Origin beings were puzzled, but having just had their life cores refined, they didn't even dare to ask.

“Those whose life cores haven’t been refined mean that your hands are not tainted by the bloodshed of cultivators,” Lu Yunhe said coldly, offering a brief explanation.

While accepting the submission of these advanced Hunyuan life forms, Lu Yunhe explored their memories in various places and specially selected some suitable advanced Hunyuan life forms to cooperate with him in some social experiments.

The exploration of life also requires the collective strength of the masses; the power of civilization is meaningless if it consists entirely of slaves.

Lu Yunhe hadn't forgotten that he had cultivated his own Origin Life Core.

This thing is simply incredible to cultivators, but for naturally born beings, it is something they are born with, and it is even the key to distinguishing between innate and acquired beings.

It was only because Lu Yunhe was an anomaly that he actively chose to cultivate his original life core.

However, there are certain aspects of the Great Dao that are clearly more suitable for cultivation by these naturally born, primordial beings.

Acquired cultivators, innate primordial life forms, and the source world are all indispensable forces.

Now, taking advantage of the opportunity to refine the mysterious land, Lu Yunhe decided to select some naturally born Hun Tian beings to teach, and incidentally practice his teaching power.

"I see!"

Upon hearing Lu Yunhe's explanation, the Hunyuan beings present felt a mix of emotions. They never expected that such a situation would lead to such a difference in treatment.

Whether or not one's life core has been refined makes a world of difference.

Of the hundreds of billions of Chaos Origin beings, less than a million high-level Chaos Origin beings were not refined into life cores and became slaves.

It's not that they're particularly kind; it's just that they haven't had the chance yet.

Unlike world-class Chaos Origin beings, higher-level Chaos Origin beings have limited strength. If they want to devour the origin of the Origin World, they either need to act collectively, with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of higher-level Chaos Origin beings attacking together at once.

Either they go to devour the origin under the guidance of a world-class Hunyuan or the Hunyuan progenitor.

The Origin World also possesses self-defense capabilities. Guided by the supreme rules, it can react to the outside world, though it is not as powerful as the Lord of the World.

It would take at least world-class chaotic power to render the instinctive reactions of the source world ineffective.

The "world" in "world-class Hunyuan" refers not only to strength but also to ability—the capacity to destroy a source world on its own, even if it takes some time.

These millions of high-level Chaos Origin beings who were not enslaved simply missed the opportune time. After birth, they stayed in the Three Harmony Territory to cultivate and never even went out.

As a naturally occurring chaotic life form, it is indeed capable of cultivation, but its cultivation speed... is definitely not as fast as that of devouring the origin of the source world.

Given a faster way to cultivate oneself, who would choose to slowly waste time?

These millions of advanced Chaos Origin life forms are all at the initial stage, with not a single one at the middle stage.

The fact that out of hundreds of billions of primordial beings in the entire Three Harmony Territory, only a mere million could be found who had not devoured the origin of the Origin World makes the attitude of the cultivator camp clear.

There are also problems that they themselves cannot do. Once they reach the world-class Hunyuan realm and change the entire endless Hunyuan space, it is probably impossible to find a naturally born Hunyuan life that has not devoured the source world.

"Fortunately, I haven't devoured the origin of the source world." The advanced Chaos Origin beings who hadn't had their life cores refined said with relief.

Thus, a thick barrier was formed between them and their former compatriots.

"I can also become a cultivator and strive to cultivate!" The surviving Hunyuan life thought to itself.

To be honest, although these primordial beings have never devoured the Origin World, they have enjoyed the benefits of the world's origin, so strictly speaking, they also have problems.

However, if we were to divide them into even stricter categories, let alone millions, we might not even be able to gather tens of thousands.

"This is enough for initial research," Lu Yunhe calculated.

In fact, the best test subjects are not these naturally occurring chaotic life forms that have already formed groups, but those life forms that are conceived in the endless chaotic space.

Especially those lower-level primordial life forms, not only are they highly malleable, but they also lack the corresponding concepts.

In some sacred realms of cultivators, there live many low-level Chaos Origin beings who are no different from cultivators. It is likely that some lords have also considered these issues.

There was no other way; as long as one was in the endless primordial space, one could not ignore the innate primordial life forms, and the lords did not want to fight against all the innate primordial life forms by themselves.

At least the naturally born chaotic life forms born within the cultivators' territory are something worth trying to acquire.

Upon discovering that some of their compatriots had not been enslaved, the eyes of those enslaved Hunyuan beings flickered with jealousy, but also ignited a spark of hope.

Since not all Hunyuan life forms were enslaved, it means that the situation is not that extreme, and perhaps they also have a chance to escape their status as slaves.

To be honest, if you don't consider their status as slaves, joining the cultivator camp is really a good idea. There are fewer people and more resources. Even if it's just a little bit of leftovers, it's enough for them.

“Next, I will steer the Three Realms to the cultivators’ territory. At that time, you will also receive new missions,” Lu Yunhe said.

Boom! !
Subsequently, the vast Three Realms World began to slowly fly towards the cultivators' territory.

The three highest-level forces of wind, thunder, and light transformed into a rainbow bridge, helping the Three Harmony Leader move. Along the way, endless streams of primordial energy flowed, allowing it to roam the space like a small boat. Occasionally, it would traverse through different time-spaces and even venture deep into the Sea of ​​Time and Space.

"It will probably take about an epoch to get back," Lu Yunhe calculated.

The three forces of wind, thunder, and light are all quite comprehensive. Combined with his own rule system, the flight speed in the Three Kingdoms world is undeniably fast.

It's important to understand that this is a world far larger than the original world; being able to teleport to it is already an immense stroke of luck.

Many mysterious places are impossible to move.

……

The First Land!
"Yuan, you've refined the Three Realms World!" Lord Jin and the others exclaimed enviously.

"You said before that you would try refining it, I didn't expect you to succeed so quickly," Yuan said happily.

Before this, the human race had only two mysterious places, one of which was the exclusive territory of the Star Lord.

Now that there's the addition of the Three Harmonies Territory, the foundation of the cultivator camp has been strengthened considerably.

The original land can be hidden as the last trump card of the cultivator camp, while the Three Realms World can be placed outside to suppress the entire cultivator territory.

The Star Lord's "Time Star" can suppress the past and the future.

The combination of these three elements makes the entire cultivator's defenses impregnable.

"congratulations!"

The lords spoke up, some even asking for tips on refining the mysterious land.

Lu Yunhe was naturally generous in sharing his knowledge, offering some useful tips and providing the lords with alternative ideas.

Unfortunately, many things are only usable by him personally; ultimately, it all comes down to his understanding of the Tao.

"This time I also obtained over 10 billion high-level Chaos Origin lifeforms, as well as a world-class Chaos Origin. I'll hand them all over to the faction later!" Lu Yunhe said.

Such naturally primordial beings that have been enslaved are generally considered assets of the entire faction, since their purpose is to manage the entire cultivator faction.

However, since Lu Yunhe was acting alone, he could keep more of the supplies for himself.

"Let's put aside the matter of naturally born chaotic life forms for now. I remember that mysterious places like the Three Harmony Territory can be moved, right? How long would it take to return to the cultivators' territory?" Yuan asked.

"It's probably only about one era," Lu Yunhe said.

“Alright, let’s go find the Ice Peak Camp after the Three Harmonies return to their territory!” Yuan said solemnly.

Currently, the invading cultivators have driven out all the forces in the domain, leaving only the Ice Peak faction.

Out of respect for this former elder brother of the cultivator camp and one of the top three forces in the Endless Chaos Space, the lords naturally had to go all out and not let anyone look down on them.

Originally, they planned to wait until Lu Yunhe failed to refine the mysterious land and returned before making their move.

Now that the refining process has been successfully completed, it's only natural to bring this supreme treasure back first.

A mysterious place floats outside the territory, making many lords somewhat uneasy, although nothing unexpected is likely to happen.

"Ice Peak Faction still won't give up?" Lu Yunhe frowned. Even now, they still haven't left. It seems they want to fight the cultivator faction.

“Although the Ice Peak Faction has obvious internal conflicts, its overall strength should not be underestimated. It has a total of twelve immortal beings, making it even more troublesome than the Innate Chaotic Life Faction,” Yuan said slowly.

Having spent some time with the Ice Peak faction, Yuan understood its internal conflicts, but this force was still not to be underestimated.

In the entire Endless Chaotic Origin Space, there are fewer than thirty immortal beings, and the Ice Peak faction accounts for twelve of them, which is almost half.

Not to mention that he also gathered a group of Hunyuan ancestors under his command, so there was no shortage of people.

If it weren't for its severe internal conflicts, the Ice Peak faction would undoubtedly be the number one power.

"Let me go one last time!" Yuan said calmly.

If possible, there's no need to go to war with the Ice Peak faction, especially since a war has just ended.

Once a fight breaks out, it will probably be difficult to determine a winner in a short period of time. If the innate chaotic life force gets involved, things will become complicated.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Yuan!"

Negotiations have always been handled by Yuan.

“This time, Yuan has refined the Three Harmony Territory, which not only gives our cultivator camp a mysterious place, but also makes up for Yuan’s weakness, making him an immortal being,” Xingmang said.

Because cultivator lords are immortal beings, they almost forgot that the source has a weakness: a life core.

"We were originally betting on whether Yuan would break through by re-comprehension of the Hunyuan Dao or find a way to dissolve his life core. But we never expected that he would refine a mysterious place."

"In this way, we cultivator lords have gained another seat in the Eternal Land."

“Very good, the definition that all lords are immortal beings has been added.”

Many lords discussed it amongst themselves.

Whether one can be immortal is of paramount importance in the endless primordial space, almost like the difference between a chess player and a chess piece.

Even though Mogus slaughtered so many lives in the Source World, the entire cultivator camp was still helpless and could only suppress him again and again, precisely because he was an immortal being.

As they spoke, the many lords finally felt relieved.

As long as Lu Yunhe doesn't become an immortal being, the lords will keep this on their minds, since it's for the sake of the entire camp that someone has been left with such a weakness.

Now that the problem is finally solved, the seven lords breathed a sigh of relief. If it hadn't been solved, things would have been terrible.

"This is double happiness," Yuan said joyfully. "Let's celebrate for Yuan again."

"it is good!"

……

In the endless primordial space, a vast world is traversing within it.

“Brother Yuan has also gone to the Ice Peak camp, but I’m afraid it still won’t yield any results,” Lu Yunhe pondered.

"In that case!"

Lu Yunhe's heart stirred, and the Three Realms World that was traveling straight through shifted at an angle, quickly shuttling in another direction.
