The Lord of Yuanzhong who Devours the Starry Sky

The starlight clone travels through many future timelines, observing the various possibilities of the future.

The original place, the pavilion in the lake.

The six lords waited quietly. The starlight avatar traveled through many future timelines, observing the various possibilities of the future, as well as the changes in Li Qi's future timeline.

Xingmang suddenly spoke up: "I have observed more than 30 million possibilities for Li Qi's future. The possibility of him becoming a lord by breaking through the law with force has reached one in a thousand."

"Very good!" Yuan Xinwei smiled. "It seems your plan has succeeded."

"One in a thousand." Wu Lan clicked her tongue in amazement. "The chance of becoming a lord is probably higher than my chance before I became a lord."

"It seems the ninth lord is about to be born. It was worth all the hard work Xingmang did and all the time we spent delaying him." Minghuang was very excited. "Once Li Qi becomes a lord and forms a fighting force, it will be the time for us to fight the Hunyuan Life Faction."

"Hmph, once all nine lords of my cultivator faction gather..." Jin said with murderous intent, "we'll definitely teach the innate chaotic life faction a lesson they won't forget!"

Naigu and Moman nodded; they were also eagerly anticipating the moment when all nine lords would gather.

There's no other reason than that this war was just too frustrating!
The naturally formed Hunyuan life force, relying on the large number of Hunyuan progenitors, kept them occupied, making it difficult for them to intervene in the battles between world-class and high-level Hunyuan.

Without the help of the lords, the number of Hunyuan experts in the cultivator camp was far less than that of the naturally born Hunyuan life camp, which is why one world group after another fell.

What angered them even more was that, outside of the naturally formed Chaotic Life camp, some other forces took advantage of their predicament and seized some world groups while they were unable to escape.

"Starlight, how did you manage to greatly increase the possibility of Li Qi breaking the spell with force?" Naigu asked curiously.

All the other lords looked at the starlight. If this method could be replicated, could more powerful figures emerge from the cultivator camp?
“I’ve always believed that the past cannot be changed,” Xingmang murmured. “At Luo Feng’s suggestion, I added some memories to Li Qi’s past timeline, and his ability to break through magic with force has been increasing, reaching such an exaggerated number.”

"Is that all?" Minghuang asked in surprise.

He remembered that after Xingmang mastered two Chaos Origin Spacetime Paths, he tried to change the past and save a World-Class Chaos Origin cultivator who had a good chance of becoming a Lord, but he failed.

"What is the principle behind this?" Jin asked. "Why is it that just by adding some memories, Li Qi's ability to break through magic by force has reached such a high level?"

Xingmang thought for a moment and said, "Li Qi's ability to become a lord by breaking through the law with force is directly related to Luo Feng."

The lords nodded slightly; they were all aware of this and were certain that there was some connection between the two.

This increases the possibility of Li Qi becoming a lord by breaking the law with force, whether it's Luo Feng's increased ability to break the law with force, the future collapse and unification of the timeline, or his current understanding of the primordial chaos level of the Dao of birth and death.

However, they could never figure out what the connection was between the two.

"The two are indeed connected, and very closely so."

Starlight said with certainty, "Because after I helped Luo Feng successfully leave traces in Li Qi's past timeline, the two became completely connected."

"You mean to say that a time loop has been formed?" Yuan suddenly realized. "This connection was relatively weak before, so it's not an exaggeration to say that as Luo Feng continued to advance towards breaking the law with force, Li Qi's potential growth in breaking the law with force was also not surprising."

“That’s interesting.” Jin grinned. “Although Li Qi and Luo Feng’s connection exists in the past timeline, it stems from your help in the future. If Luo Feng hadn’t asked you for help, their connection would naturally be weaker.”

"I'm a little curious, what memories did Luo Feng leave behind in the past timeline?" Minghuang looked at Xingmang.

"It's just some of Luo Feng's growth experiences, and it's been modified, with Li Qi removed from his memories." Xingmang shook his head slightly. "In fact, Luo Feng even gave that memory a name, disguising it as a book called 'Swallowing the Stars'."

"Hmm...that's it?"

The lords were surprised to hear this.

"That's all, and that's all we can do," Xingmang said softly. "Because changing the past, even just adding some memories, is extremely difficult. This was only accomplished after Li Qi was reincarnated and started cultivating again."

Yuan suddenly realized, "You suggested that Li Qi be reincarnated and start over in order to leave a trace of Li Qi's past."

"There's no way around it. The stronger the beings that exist now, the more stable their timeline becomes in the infinite primordial space, making it very difficult to make any changes."

Xingmang said softly, "Even though I currently control two Chaotic Origin Spacetime Paths, it is still difficult for me to make any minor modifications to the past timelines of the beings within the cage."

“If Li Qi doesn’t reincarnate and start anew, I won’t even be able to change his past timeline. After all, he is a cultivator of the Fusion Dao, and he may become a lord in the future by breaking through the laws with force.”

Upon hearing this, all the lords understood that Li Qi's genius, who had a very high probability of breaking through magic with force, could not be replicated.

Indeed, only 94 Fusion Path cultivators were born in the cultivator camp, and there were only two instances where two Fusion Path cultivators were born in the same period.

The birth of Li Qi and Luo Feng was one such instance.

The connection between Li Qi and Luo Feng is so deep that it's unheard of!

Even among the more than 80 million Hunyuan experts in the cultivator camp, very few were born in the same Origin World, let alone have a master-disciple relationship.

“Starlight, is the possibility of Li Qi breaking through the law with force now fixed?” Moman asked.

“Nothing has changed yet. The probability of one in a thousand is quite high,” Xingmang said.

“Continue to observe, and let us know if there are any changes.” Yuan looked at Xingmang. “You’ve worked hard, not only to clean up the world-class Chaos Origin life forms that have infiltrated our territory, but also to fight against the Chaos Origin Ancestor with us.”

"It's nothing." Xingmang chuckled and shook his head. "Once Li Qi becomes a lord, things will be much easier for us all in the future."

The lords nodded in agreement.

When there were seven lords, they were at a disadvantage against the naturally formed chaotic life force. When a full-scale war broke out, they were very likely to retreat to their original territory.

The eighth lord, Luo Feng, was born. In the war against the naturally formed Hunyuan Life Faction, they were quite confident of defeating their opponents. Afterward, the two factions made peace and recuperated.

When the ninth lord is born, and before the eighth lord is exposed, they are extremely confident that they can severely damage the innate chaotic life force!

This made the seven lords very excited, hoping that Li Qi could become the ninth lord of the cultivator camp!
……

In the quiet chamber of Sirius's cave, in the original place.

After perfecting a world-class Chaos Origin Combat Secret Technique, the silver-haired, three-eyed man, 'Sky Wolf,' returned to the meditation room and sat down at a stone table. His expression changed several times upon seeing the message in his bracelet.

"I've been a world-class Chaos Source for so long, yet the Lord has never summoned me. Instead, he helped that Fusion Dao cultivator, Li Qi, reincarnate and start anew, and even reincarnated in the Dark World..."

Sirius's eyes held a hint of resentment. "Could it be that the leader of this Dark World Group, the Lord, intends to hand it over to Luo Feng, who has become a world-class Chaos Origin?"

Generally speaking, a world-class Hunyuan will manage multiple world groups. After all, there are fewer than 300 world-class Hunyuan experts in the entire cultivator camp, while there are as many as 3,600 world groups.

"Does the lord intend to regard Luo Feng and Li Qi as his confidants?" Sirius muttered unwillingly. "They didn't refine the origin of the source world and break free from their shackles. They still need to rely on the power of bloodlines just like me. They are just a few times more likely to become lords than I am."

As is well known among the Hunyuan experts, five of the lords broke free from the shackles of the Origin World by refining it, while only one refined his bloodline, and he followed the path of the Hunyuan bloodline.

As for breaking the law with force, that's even more difficult!

Even with the world-class Hunyuan's speed of thought, it would be difficult to comprehend the Dao at the Hunyuan level, let alone a half-Hunyuan life form that has not yet escaped its shackles!
"Don't rush..." Sirius said, trying to calm himself down. "We're at war now, so maybe the lord is just busy with something."

The lords value those who have not yet escaped their shackles, especially those who have merged with the Dao. They value them even more than world-class Chaos Origin beings who have escaped their shackles through bloodlines.

There's no other reason than that the Star Lord, who pioneered the path of breaking through laws with force, was already a cultivator of the Fusion Path before he broke free from his shackles.

……

time flies.

The original place, Hunyuan Island.

Li Qi was cultivating in seclusion in his cave, comprehending the world-class Hunyuan bloodline that resonated with him. As the last piece of the world-class Hunyuan bloodline was completed, he opened his eyes.

"I have finally comprehended more than 70% of all 81 world-class Hunyuan bloodlines that are compatible with me." Li Qi smiled. "Now I can apply to study the remains of the Hunyuan Ancestor."

call!
As Li Qi sent the request through his bracelet, a vast and complex array of illusory runes immediately appeared in the quiet room.

"The progenitor of Hunyuan was unable to refine his bloodline, so he could only comprehend the secret patterns on his corpse and remains."

Li Qi moved through the illusory patterns, observing the complex and profound patterns through the Eye of Illusion, a treasure he possessed.

"It's too complicated. There are as many as twenty-seven kinds of secret patterns on the remains of the Rock Core Ancestor. Life-related patterns account for 32% and world-related patterns account for 28%, which together account for 60% of all mysteries."

Li Qi thought to himself, "These Primordial Ancestors of Chaos did not comprehend the essence of the Great Dao, so when they were mining power, they were just scratching the surface..."

Born from the infinite primordial space, the naturally occurring primordial life form can be considered the darling of the infinite primordial space. As long as it taps into its own power and devours the origin of the source world, it has the hope of becoming an ancestor.

Unlike cultivators born within a cage, each one is inherently weak and can only survive in the infinite chaotic space by relying on the protection of the source world.

"Although the secret patterns on the remains of the Primordial Ancestor are complex, they still represent the highest level of power that controls the infinite Primordial Space, but they are not as powerful as the essence of the highest power that I, as a cultivator lord, can control."

Li Qi pondered carefully, "The primordial Dao that a cultivator lord comprehends is invisible and intangible, and cannot serve as the resources for me to break through the laws with force."

“The remains of the Primordial Ancestor are different. Although they are somewhat mixed, they are visible and tangible, and can be studied and referenced.”

"Unfortunately, these remains of the Primordial Chaos Ancestors are all missing the most crucial life core, otherwise I could have better comprehended them."

Li Qi shook his head inwardly and said, "It's normal to lack a life core. If the life core were intact, how could the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos have perished?"

The secret patterns on the remains of the Primordial Ancestor were profound. Even though Li Qi had comprehended more than 70% of the 81 world-class Primordial bloodlines, he still found it somewhat difficult to understand them.

Fortunately, although comprehension is difficult, he is still making progress, which means that if he continues to progress, he will eventually break through the law with force.

……

The original place, the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

“Li Qi has begun to comprehend the remains of the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan,” Yuan said softly. “Compared to Luo Feng, he is a bit slow.”

"It's okay to go slower, as long as I'm not stuck at a bottleneck and can't make any progress," Jin said nonchalantly. "I've already endured it for so long, I don't mind enduring it for a little longer."

“Although we are delaying the ancestors’ advance, the cost is that several more world clusters have fallen.” Minghuang sighed softly, “This is a catastrophe for the beings in the fallen world clusters.”

“This is war, and losses are inevitable,” Naigu said calmly. “As long as Li Qi can become a lord, these losses will be worthwhile.”

"The fall of the world is only temporary. Those weak creatures that died will be buried with the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos," Wu Lan said in a deep voice.

"We've endured this for so long, isn't it all for the purpose of killing more Primordial Ancestors?" Jin said coldly. "Otherwise, once Luo Feng has formed a fighting force, we can have a decisive battle with the Primordial Life Force."

Neither Yuan nor Xingmang spoke, their gazes fixed on the direction of Hunyuan Island, where there was a lord who had completed his final breakthrough and a lord seed who was very likely to break through the laws with force.

“Luo Feng has already begun studying the path we have mastered,” Xingmang said.

"Good progress." Moman nodded. "It seems it won't be long before he becomes a combat force."

“If Luo Feng joins forces with us, we can withstand more of the Hunyuan Ancestors.” Yuan’s gaze turned to the mountain where Li Qi was located. “If Li Qi also breaks through, and joins forces with Wu Lan and Luo Feng, we can probably block most of the Hunyuan Ancestors.”

"Haha, the path we've opened up is all biased towards life." Wu Lan laughed. "This Li Qi hasn't even broken free of his cage yet, and his body is already bigger than Luo Feng's. Perhaps his body size will surpass mine."

“It’s too big, that might not be good.” Minghuang frowned. “You Wulan is enough to block it from the front.”

“Li Qi hasn’t broken the law with force yet, so everything is still unknown,” Naigu said softly. “I think that the infinite path that Li Qi opened up, although his body is quite large, may have its energy source coming from his inner world. Maybe he can develop methods to trap enemies or help us replenish our energy.”

“Trapping the enemy is too difficult. The Primordial Ancestors of Hunyuan will not stand by and watch their comrades be trapped,” Jin said coldly. “If he can really develop a way to replenish energy, it would greatly increase our strength, and at least we would not be afraid of the Primordial Ancestors’ relentless attacks.”

“Indeed, if we can quickly replenish our energy, even if the Primordial Ancestors of Hunyuan join the battle, we can still win.” Yuan nodded, then changed the subject, “It’s a bit too early to talk about this now. Li Qi has already broken free of the cage by using force to break the law.”

Starlight watched with interest, not joining the lords' conversation. (End of Chapter)
