Swallowing the Stars, Hu Yanbo's Pre-Godhood

Chapter 281 Our Eighth Lord is Coming!

Yuan nodded slightly, his earnestness growing stronger: "I hope he can make steady progress and avoid any more mishaps."

With a slight twitch of his fingertips, Xingmang looked through time and space towards the place of origin: "Don't worry, his future timeline is still decreasing, it hasn't stopped."

Meanwhile, in the quiet room of the Primordial Land, Hu Yanbo remained seated cross-legged, slowly refining the essence of the panel. Endless energy flowed seamlessly into his body, his strength steadily increased, the barrier to the late-stage World-level realm grew thinner and thinner, and his life level also slowly rose. With each wisp of essence merging, his Dao of Cause and Effect became more and more condensed, bringing him one step closer to breaking through to the Primordial Lord level.

The war raged on.

The lords have their wars, and the other Hunyuan powerhouses also have their wars.

Even within the realm of cultivators, in the many world groups, those cultivators who have not yet broken free from their shackles all have their own struggles.

The Dark World Cluster Region, Nine Rivers Sacred Realm.

Inside a black flying boat bound for Yulan City in the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, Luo Feng and Di Qing were still recovering from their earlier treachery. They had just been robbed by powerful figures from the Ghostly Pavilion, and although they managed to escape, they had still lost a considerable amount of resources.

As Di Qing piloted the flying boat, observing and sensing his surroundings, his gaze occasionally swept over Luo Feng, who was meditating with his eyes closed beside him: "Young Sect Master, what exactly are you after?"

"What I gained from fighting these low-level Chaos Origin beings in the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm is, in my opinion, less valuable than even a sliver of value in your black flying boat, Young Sect Master!"

"I'm aiming for cultivation, aiming for a true breakthrough." Luo Feng slowly opened his eyes.

"I still want to catch up with my teacher!" Luo Feng added silently to himself. That obsession hidden in his heart never wavered in the slightest.

"A real breakthrough?" Di Qing smiled.

"You should know that if you were willing to reveal your identity as a disciple of the Lord of the Origin World, not to mention the plundering teams of the Ghost Market in Yulan City, the entire Yulan City would be completely devoid of any dark forces if there were no dark forces present."

"It's not impossible that he could even decide the order of the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm with a single word!"

"Why would someone chase after you and rob you?"

Luo Feng shook his head: "If I rely on my status for protection, even if my cultivation improves, I will only be a plant in a greenhouse, and cannot be considered a true strongman."

"I'm not happy with the dark forces in Yulan City, but I won't rely on my teacher's power."

"I will decide the fate of Rain City through my own strength!"

Inside the airship cabin, Di Qing couldn't help but be slightly taken aback upon hearing Luo Feng's words.

Luo Feng was only at the early stage of God Emperor level at the moment, but when he said these words, Di Qing had no doubt whatsoever.

Luo Feng's teacher, the great sect master of the Heavenly Sect, stepped into the world-class Hunyuan realm in just three hundred epochs, and is a legend in the endless Hunyuan space.

Luo Feng, as his disciple, although his talent was far inferior to his teacher's, only took three hundred epochs to reach the early stage of God Emperor.

Looking at the entire Hunyuan Space, it is quite, quite incredible.

He possesses this extraordinary talent, a clear understanding of himself, and an unparalleled background as the Lord of the Origin World.

Perhaps, he really does have a chance to break free from the cage, just like the sect leader of the Heavenly Sect.

Many thoughts surged within Di Qing's mind.

Previously, he lacked sufficient resources and was unable to invest in the Heavenly Sect Master like his ancestor Yan Feng.

It is said that the two patriarchs, Yanfeng and Leiting, received precious treasures personally bestowed by the sect leader, and their opportunities were extraordinary.

As for myself, I was merely fortunate enough to have heard the sect leader preach once.

But it was that sermon that allowed him to break free from his shackles and successfully advance to the mid-stage of the God Emperor realm.

If he could invest in this sect leader's personal disciple, he could also break free from his constraints!

Wouldn't that mean the path to becoming a late-stage God Emperor be within easy reach?

What? You're saying Luo Feng doesn't need his investment?

What investment could be greater than going through thick and thin together, facing life and death together?

"Young Sect Master, what else is there to say? Since you have such determination, I, Di Qing, will accompany you on this journey."

"I just hope that my strength won't fall too far behind the young sect leader too quickly."

"Haha! Brother Diqing, just call me Brother Luo Feng. Calling me Young Sect Master is too formal," Luo Feng laughed.

The black flying boat broke through the clouds of the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm and sped towards Rain Wave City.

Time slipped away quietly, day by day.

The original place, inside Yuan's cave.

A towering figure sat cross-legged, and great paths appeared around him, all of which were materialized.

Some transformed into winding dragons coiling around his arms, while firebirds hovered among his hair; shimmering mist flowed around his mouth and nose, and billions of universes were born on the surface of his skin.

"Lord, traces of naturally occurring primordial life have been discovered in the Yuguang World Group."

"Lord, traces of naturally occurring chaotic life have been discovered in the Arakawa World Cluster."

Messages were transmitted directly to Yuan.

Suddenly, Yuan opened his eyes.

"Lord, the Dark World Group has discovered traces of naturally occurring, primordial life."

"Lord, in the Dark World Cluster, a world-class Chaos Origin life form has appeared in the Eighth Domain."

"Lord, in the Dark World, the garrison general of the 22nd domain has fallen. The murderer is—"

Upon hearing that the Dark World Group was in danger, Yuan immediately sent a message.

"Starlight, I'd like to trouble you to make the trip. Huyanbo's source world is in the 10th domain of the Dark World Group."

"If Huyan Bo makes a move, those Chaos Origin beings will definitely realize that a new Lord of the Origin World has been born."

"Once they learn that we have given birth to a new Lord of the Origin World, they will definitely send out ancestral beings to constantly investigate Huyanbo's methods of the Great Dao and all other information."

Since five of the seven lords in the cultivator camp first achieved the status of a world-class Chaos Origin Lifeform before stepping into the lord realm, the probability of such advancement is not small.

It is precisely for this reason that the naturally formed Hunyuan life camp has thoroughly investigated the roots, Dao, and methods of every world-class Hunyuan life on the cultivator's side.

They feared that one day a new lord might suddenly emerge and catch them off guard.

"If Huyan Bo really reveals signs of a breakthrough for the sake of his own Origin World, then it will be difficult for us to join forces and give those bastards a good beating," Yuan said in a deep voice.

"My clone is already taking shape." In another cave in the Land of Origin, Xingmang nodded slightly.

As early as when the Hunyuan expert sent the urgent message from the Dark World Group to Yuan's cave, Xingmang had already discerned the decision Yuan was most likely to make.

"However, you'll have to shoulder more pressure on the main battlefield."

"To avoid suspicion, I will allocate a portion of my power to simultaneously descend upon different world groups to hunt down those naturally occurring chaotic beings."

"Okay!" Yuan nodded.

Beyond a certain unclaimed source world in the Dark World Cluster, the void trembled, and a world-class primordial being, as large as a star, slowly emerged. Its form resembled a fish but was not quite, and its body was surrounded by a violent primordial aura. It opened its mouth and let out a cackling laugh: "Hahaha, the origin of this source world belongs to me."

Its enormous body floated outside the Origin World, and the invisible primordial power quietly seeped into the Origin World like a tide.

In the unclaimed Origin World, everything operates according to the rules of heaven and earth. Even a God-King level expert would find it difficult to infiltrate, let alone the power of a world-class Chaos Origin life form.

"What is this?"

"No""

Within the Origin World, countless beings looked up, unable to see the colossal creature outside, yet they could clearly feel the terrifying pressure that enveloped the heavens and earth. The primordial power that seeped in was like a thick, dark cloud, instantly obscuring the entire spacetime of the Origin World.

Dark clouds loom overhead; destruction is imminent.

boom-

With a deafening roar, without any warning, all living beings, land, rivers, and spatial connections within the Origin World were annihilated by this terrifying power, leaving no trace behind, only utter silence and nothingness.

This destructive force did not stop; it continued to penetrate the core essence of the source world, greedily devouring it.

"The origin of the Origin World is too profound." This world-class Chaos Origin life form sighed with satisfaction. Although it was already a world-class existence, the origin of this Origin World was as profound as the sea. Even if it absorbed it with all its might, it would be difficult to deplete it quickly.

"It is estimated that it will take 120 epochs to absorb all the origin of this world." Based on its own absorption speed and combined with the past experience of other world-class Chaos Origins in the camp, it made a clear judgment.

Destroying all beings in the Source World is but a thought away; yet absorbing all the essence of this Source World would take a full 0 epochs.

Not to mention it, even if the progenitor of the Chaotic Origin faction were to personally take action, it would still take a considerable amount of time to completely absorb the origin of an Origin World.

Just as it was immersed in the pleasure of absorbing the source, the void trembled slightly, and a blurry phantom quietly descended, instantly condensing into a black-robed youth, with the power of spacetime flowing around him. It was the avatar of the Star Lord.

"Not good!" The world-class Chaos Origin Being, which was absorbing the source of the universe, caught a glimpse of the black-robed figure out of the corner of its eye and froze instantly. Its eyes were filled with disbelief and terror, and the Chaos Origin aura of its entire body became chaotic—it knew the identity of this figure all too well.

Starlight!

The most feared lord in the entire innate chaotic life force!

He comes and goes without a trace, and his actions are ruthless and decisive. Any innate Chaos Source that he targets has never had a chance of survival. This fear is etched into the bones of all innate Chaos Sources.

The black-robed youth merely glanced at the now-dead Origin World, uttering no further words. With a thought, the surrounding spacetime instantly distorted and shattered, spreading out like a broken mirror.

That enormous world-class primordial life form, along with its core life essence, disintegrated inch by inch as spacetime shattered. It didn't even have time to scream before it was completely dead.

The Starburst Avatar waved its hand, and a streak of light swept past, taking the world-class Chaos Origin corpse into its storage space. Immediately afterward, a causal transmission reached Huyanbo's cave: "Huyanbo, go into seclusion in peace. I will leave an avatar here to guard your Dark World Group."

Before he finished speaking, his figure turned into a phantom and disappeared completely into the void.

Inside Huyanbo's cave, Huyanbo sat cross-legged. Just now, a message from Teng and other powerful subordinates had arrived, reporting the unusual activity of the naturally occurring chaotic life forms outside.

Upon hearing the Star Lord's telepathic message, Hu Yanbo nodded secretly.

With the Star Lord's clone guarding and protecting him, his main battle clone did not need to rush out of seclusion, and naturally would not reveal any signs of breakthrough.

His heart stirred slightly, and he replied respectfully, "Thank you, Lord Starlight."

At the same time, within the entire territory of the cultivator camp, Starlight, with the help of the spacetime network laid out by the camp, absorbed the primal power of multiple spacetimes at close range, and thousands of thoughts instantly crossed the endless void and descended to various spacetime nodes.

Each thought that landed condensed into a black-robed youth's clone. Each clone could instantly gather more than one ten-thousandth of its energy reserves, and its attacks were swift and decisive, enough to annihilate any world-class Chaos Origin life form in an instant.

"Buzz." "Buzz." "Buzz." "Buzz." "Buzz." "Buzz." "Buzz." Subtle spatial tremors resounded, and in various regions of the Vasun World Group, one after another, black-robed youths descended, their bodies swirling with the power of spacetime, their light sweeping across every area of ​​space that might harbor innate primordial life.

If it encounters a high-level Chaos Origin life form, the Starburst Avatar simply raises its hand, and an invisible spacetime barrier descends, capturing them all effortlessly. For these avatars that have only condensed one ten-thousandth of their energy reserves, the time and energy spent on slaughtering and capturing are almost the same, so there is no need to put in much effort.

However, if it encounters a world-class primordial life form, the Starlight Avatar will not hesitate at all and will immediately launch a killing move. With a thought, it will cause spacetime to shatter and annihilate the life form in an instant.

After all, capturing a world-class Chaos Origin life form requires extra mental effort to seal its power, which is too time-consuming. Rather than wasting time, it is better to kill it directly to eliminate future troubles and also to get to the next battlefield more quickly.

Throughout the entire cultivator camp's territory, relying on the spacetime network and absorbing the close-range power of multiple spacetimes, thousands of thoughts of the Star Lord descended from afar to various spacetimes.

Moreover, it can instantly exceed one ten-thousandth of its energy reserves, enabling it to rapidly annihilate world-class chaotic life forms.

"Buzz." "Buzz." "Buzz." "Buzz." "Buzz." "Buzz."

In the world of Vashun, in various regions, black-robed youths descended.

If he encountered higher-level Chaos Origin beings, he would simply wave his hand and capture them all.

For a clone with only one ten-thousandth of its energy reserves, slaughtering and capturing take the same amount of time.

When encountering a world-class Chaos Source, prioritize killing!

Capturing them would take more time.

The main battlefield of Hunyuan Space.

The ancestors' aura of violence suddenly surged, and they were all extremely furious.

"How dare you! While we are engaged in direct combat, you still dare to spare forces to slaughter our juniors!"

"The starlight has diverted some of its power, significantly reducing his strength; he is no longer the most troublesome opponent!"

"Gentlemen, give it your all and utterly crush these cultivator lords!"

Facing the seven lords of the cultivator camp, these ancestors were already extremely wary. In the previous war, even when they joined forces, three ancestors had been killed. Every attack was carried out with extreme caution, for fear of being attacked again.

But now, the Star Lord, who posed the greatest threat, dared to send out troops, his strength plummeting from the top tier to an ordinary level.

Suddenly, all fear disappeared, and a surge of confidence to attack welled up in his heart.

"kill!"

"Completely destroy their defenses!"

The attacks of the seventy-three progenitors suddenly became several times more ferocious, and the power of the primordial chaos transformed into a boundless killing tide, frantically assaulting the defensive line of the cultivator lords.

The seven lords of the cultivator camp, however, remained steadfast in their defenses, showing no intention of launching a counterattack.

Yuan personally set up the vast Hunyuan Formation, which operated to its fullest potential, perfectly coordinating the primal powers of the seven lords. This allowed the seven of them to withstand the frenzied siege of the ancestors.

"Everyone, hold on a little longer, just a little longer! I can't see Huyanbo's future anymore, I can't see it at all!"

At the core of the formation, Starlight informed the other lords.

"Our eighth lord is coming!"
