I picked up attributes in Swallowing Star.

That would potentially reveal Luo Yuan's planned scheme, and they would definitely send people to investigate Luo Yuan's identity and intentions, which would be very disadvantageous for him. In addition, there are various differences in the laws between different universes.

Luo Yuan didn't want such differences to cause changes in his control over these powerful individuals. Therefore, the safest approach was to execute his plan within the universe he was in, since these people couldn't leave the universe. This way, Luo Yuan could use his powerful secret techniques without encountering any problems.

When Luo Yuan wants to completely restore the fundamental laws of this universe and elevate it to its original dimension, he will need the help of these powerful individuals. No matter how strong one person is, it is difficult to do so. If problems arise in the end, these individuals can help him in advance.

So he could leave at any time without any accidents. Therefore, he had already begun to execute his plan during his adventure on this planet. He didn't need to worry about those super strong people who were controlling everything behind the scenes. That's because, according to the assessment standards of these geniuses, Luo Yuan's behavior would bring more benefits and scores.

As long as Luo Yuan doesn't tell anyone his true intentions, it's impossible for anyone to know what he's planning in advance. Moreover, Luo Yuan discovered that the powerful figures in these camps are extremely hostile to each other and it's impossible for them to unite and plan together.

Specifically to deal with the demands within the region, Luo Yuan also knew that another reason was that there were too many businesses operating here, so it was impossible for them to maintain consistency. If they were to really engage in joint combat operations, there would definitely be some disagreements. Without a unified leadership, they would not be able to act together.

The problem is that to achieve a unified action, it is necessary to select someone who can command everyone to execute the plan. However, all the leaders present believe that they are the most powerful, so how could they possibly obey the orders of others? As a result, all the factions present acted independently.

It's impossible for the kind of joint operation we've encountered before to happen again. So some powerful factions will immediately move closer to our core area. They think it's better to take action directly than to wait. Although they sent some people to explore before, they found nothing.

Even those sent out never returned. The only explanation is that they were all wiped out by the monsters. This shows that the monsters are very powerful and have a strong defensive capability in your area. The cooperative ability of human experts is still quite different from that of the monsters.

Moreover, those demonic beasts share a common leader, which allows them to unite as one against external threats. However, while human powerhouses may have some vested interests, they are also constantly wary of each other, making it difficult to get them to cooperate in fighting the demonic beasts.

The current situation is that although the number and strength of the human powerhouses are clearly greater than those of the demonic beasts in the region, none of them are able to eliminate the demonic beasts and seize the resources. This is because these human powerhouses are separated from each other.

It would be difficult for an individual to fight against the monsters, so some clever leaders observed other factions to see if there were any collaborators. However, the number of factions willing to cooperate was definitely not large. After Luo Yuan arrived here, he led his faction's lovers to stay here for rest.

After all, when you arrive in an unfamiliar place, it is wisest to observe and obtain detailed information before taking action. It is impossible to launch an attack immediately after arriving. Moreover, Luo Yuan has always appeared here as an observer, so he will not attract anyone's attention quickly.

Several people from other factions came to Luo Yuan's camp. Luo Yuan immediately sent his two successful leaders to contact them. Soon, Luo Yuan learned about their origins and purpose: they wanted to cooperate with them to explore the area occupied by the monster and see if they could gain any benefits.

Logically speaking, complete strangers like Luo Yuan and his group shouldn't have attracted the attention and trust of the leaders of the powerful factions here. However, someone from each faction sent someone to make special contact. Therefore, Luo Yuan could deduce that these were powerful figures within those factions.

Their real intention was to use Luo Yuan and his group as tools to weaken the demonic beasts, and then take advantage of this opportunity to reduce resistance and gain benefits. Therefore, they never truly regarded Luo Yuan and his group as equals, and they would never share the benefits they gained with Luo Yuan.

Luo Yuan initially wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he decided that he could temporarily agree to their offer. This was mainly because Luo Yuan noticed that the people extending olive branches to them seemed to be stronger than him and his group, but in reality, Luo Yuan and his group were much stronger.

This is because those people were unaware of Luo Yuan's existence when they made their judgments. Luo Yuan alone could fight against several planetary-level powerhouses, so Luo Yuan thought he could take advantage of their lack of understanding of his side and get them to cooperate with him to explore the monster area.

Once danger arises, they can be turned around and controlled to fight against the monsters. These people want to fight against the monsters, and Luo Yuan can do the same, turning them into tools to fight the monsters. Everyone has the same goal; it all comes down to who has the stronger ability to take the lead.

However, judging from the current situation, Luo Yuan's side has stronger combat power, which is why Luo Yuan did not refuse. Moreover, he cannot wait here indefinitely. After all, Luo Yuan is going to explore the region, and he must make corresponding preparations. Even if he wants to obtain detailed information from you, it will not be an easy thing.

After all, based on previous observations, it is known that few of the personnel sent out to investigate actually return, and it is not easy to obtain relevant information from others. In that case, it is better to go and explore directly, at least to find out what happened inside, and to evacuate in advance if any problems arise.

Originally, Luo Yuan planned to send a small group of people to scout out the situation before taking further action. However, since several powerful figures from different factions had made contact with them in advance, Luo Yuan could send them to explore the area. At that time, Luo Yuan and his men could adapt to the situation as it arose.

Moreover, with so many factions going to explore these areas, regardless of the situation, there will definitely be some powerful individuals from certain factions who are strong enough to obtain treasures during the exploration process. If Luo Yuan continues to wait here, his chances of obtaining treasures will be reduced.

So, given this situation, it's better to explore it directly. Whether or not one can gain more protection depends on one's own strength and luck. The situation here is completely different from other areas explored before, so Luo Yuan cannot judge his current actions based on his previous experience.

Therefore, he had no choice but to change his plans. Visiting me was the most obvious option. After discussing the route among the powerful figures of several factions, they began to move. However, based on the information they had, the Eastern region was mainly divided into three parts.

There are three different areas: left, middle, and right. The middle area has the most resources and the strongest monsters. There are very few powerful monsters there. They plan to explore there first because they will encounter more threats.

However, after obtaining the treasures in the left and right areas, we plan to explore the central area. But this also means that the left and right areas have the largest concentration of powerful humans. If we explore them, we need to be careful of being targeted by these powerful individuals. However, we can put the central area aside for now.

Because if you go to explore that place at the beginning, you will encounter these powerful monsters, and a huge battle will definitely break out between you and them, depleting the strength of both sides. In the end, you may end up with nothing and even benefit others. The more monsters there are depleted, the more opportunities are created for the strong people of other factions.

Intelligent people wouldn't choose that option. They would only inquire about the left and right areas, because those areas have a higher concentration of powerful humans. With more human warriors, the number of demonic beasts there will decrease as they are consumed, resulting in less resistance and a greater chance of obtaining treasures.

Similarly, with more people, there would be opportunities to fish in troubled waters. Luo Yuan thought this was quite good, since places with treasures would often attract more powerful people to explore and compete for them. Therefore, the place they initially chose to explore was in the left area.

The reason for this is that there are the most powerful individuals here, so they can separate and occupy different areas. In order to avoid overlapping during their exploration, these powerful human beings will divide the attack areas in advance. So when they act together, they can also take care of each other and form a powerful restraining effect.

As for those demonic beasts, their numbers are fixed. In order to deal with so many powerful beings from different factions, they can only be dispersed proportionally. The final result is that the number of demonic beasts corresponding to each faction will be greatly reduced. Therefore, they also have the opportunity to obtain treasures during the battle.

When Luo Yuan and his group arrived, their combined strength as a team of several factions was quite formidable. The other factions, Qiangzi, did not dare to underestimate them and, after making contact, decided to give Luo Yuan and his group a large territory.

Let them go and attack. As long as they can gain benefits, how to distribute them in the end is up to the leaders of Luo Yuan and his camps. No one interferes with them. This is the benefit of several camps gradually coming together to form a powerful fighting force.

If only a strong individual like Luo Yuan arrives here, creating a significant gap in strength between the other factions, then they might end up with nothing, not even the right to attack an area on their own.

Chapter 842. Yearning

Because this eastern region is very vast, the battle lines are also very long. In order to protect the entire region from attacks by human powerhouses, the monsters gathered here can only distribute their forces to each area for defense. The area that Luo Yuan and his group have chosen is the weakest of the three regions in terms of monster strength.

They can use this as a breakthrough point. Once they can occupy the area on the left, they can use this place to access the other two areas and explore them. This is essentially bypassing the defensive line formed by the monsters at the front. However, even so, the danger level is still very high.

To truly achieve this, one must pay a heavy price. However, all the powerful individuals present were prepared, knowing that to break through their current realm, they needed to obtain the most precious resource there, the so-called Origin Fruit.

Breaking through a realm entirely on one's own ability is extremely difficult, as it requires a high level of talent and pushing one's energy to its limit. However, for most of the powerful individuals on this planet, reaching such a level is simply too difficult.

Therefore, they can only achieve this by relying on external treasures. This is also an important reason why they came to explore this edge area. I know this place is very dangerous, but I still came here to venture out. In fact, whether it is the middle area or the core area, those powerful people are here.

When they were trying to break through their cultivation levels, they all chose to obtain Origin Fruits to ensure their absolute safety. Moreover, Origin Fruits could not only help them break through their cultivation levels, but also improve their cultivation talents and even enhance their physical strength. These benefits were something that all the powerful individuals cared about very much.

Everyone knows that breaking through realms by absorbing the power of the Source Fruit is not only very safe, but also more effective than breaking through on one's own. So instead of wasting time constantly trying to break through the current limit and eventually reach the planetary level, it's more practical to come here and obtain the Source Fruit.

These people all thought that this was just the special power brought by the Source Fruit, but in fact it was the edge of the universe contained within that helped them improve their strength. Moreover, it would be a waste to break through realms by simply absorbing its energy. Only Luo Yuan knew how precious the original power contained within it was.

If one can absorb it, not only will one be able to break through to a higher realm and increase one's strength, but one will also have the opportunity to control the origin of this universe. Of course, this requires relying on more such treasures to accomplish, and also to obtain special source fruits on this planet.

There must be even more advanced resources in other regions, containing a lot of primordial power. Originally, Luo Yuan thought that such an important treasure as the Source Fruit was planted by an external powerhouse who controlled this universe, but now it seems that this is not the case at all.

This is because, in order to truly cultivate such resources, the prerequisite is to have a full understanding of the laws of this world, especially the situation of this universe. However, so far, no external powerhouse has made this universe a priority.

Instead of focusing on the universe as a resource world for nurturing geniuses, if they knew about the existence of special forces in this universe, they would definitely try to control them and repair the source power. Then they could obtain a complete universe of a higher dimension.

This is more important than cultivating super-strong individuals and regaining their original universe's status. Even if their universes could be transferred back, they would only be level five civilizations. However, if their universes could be completely repaired, they could directly achieve dimensional advancement and reach level six.

It is unknown how many fifth-dimensional civilizations have devoted countless resources and time to achieving dimensional advancement, and how many super-powerful beings have even paid the ultimate price. These powerful universes have either cultivated more outstanding geniuses or seized resources by waging war against other universes.

The final result is that they all failed to complete the dimensional ascension of the universe. However, if they could bypass such limitations and directly obtain an independent and complete universe, the difficulty would be greatly reduced. However, to discover this, many conditions must be met.

For example, one can clearly sense the edge of the universe and even discover the special power contained in its origin. Of course, in Luo Yuan's view, the most important thing is to have a clear understanding of the overall framework of the universe.

For example, by acquiring some powerful inherited knowledge, they could learn about the concept of the Unique Universe and then know how to achieve the desired effect. However, Luo Yuan also knew that repairing a complete sixth-level dimension would require even more resources, potentially consuming all the resources of several fifth-level civilization dimensions.

It's impossible for Luo Yuan to occupy and control a complete fifth-dimensional universe, because his current strength is insufficient. The dominant-level powerhouses within it are beings that Luo Yuan absolutely cannot contend with. However, the universe is so vast, and it also contains many incomplete versions of independent universes that were destroyed in battles with other universes.

The power of these universes has been greatly reduced, but they still contain some peripheral areas. If Luo Yuan can extract all of these powers and integrate them, and ultimately make up for the missing parts of the origin of the sixth-level dimensional universe, then he can achieve the repair of the dimensional universe.

Of course, to achieve all this, one must possess immense strength. According to Luo Yuan's prediction, reaching the level of a universe controller would be the safest option. As for the powerhouse at the Dominator level, that can only be achieved after possessing a complete universe, because the strength of powerhouses at other levels comes from the powerful universe they control.

Moreover, the higher the level of the universe they control, the stronger they become. This involves the limitations of the universe's rules and cannot be achieved by simply improving one's personal strength. Therefore, once one has cultivated to a certain level, one will find that it is not possible to break through to the highest level simply by working hard.

Instead, they are subject to very strict restrictions from the universe. It would be better to bypass such rules, but all life forms living in the universe cannot reach that level, so they can only abide by the rules of the universe. However, they can be flexible in the process of abiding by the rules, which can at least make it easier for them to break through their realm.

Luo Yuan noticed the key factor, which is why he observed the special features of the universe he was in and knew how to do it to achieve the best results. However, so far, Luo Yuan has only mastered this origin in the universe he knows.

If an outer universe has been destroyed, then the best way to quickly increase one's strength is to first control the outer universe, and then control the broken universe that has been controlled here. If this is the case, then Luo Yuan would essentially control two powerful universes.

At that time, the primal power from the outer universe can be extracted and integrated into the sixth-dimensional universe. Although it is impossible to repair the sixth-dimensional universe with the primal power of a fifth-level civilization universe alone, it can still speed up the process.

Moreover, once Luo Yuan has fully grasped the origin of this universe, he can use the special power of this universe for his own purposes. This is equivalent to having the strength to be comparable to, or even stronger than, a level-five civilization universe ruler.

Moreover, as long as enough primal power is integrated, his strength will continue to increase until he becomes a level six dimensional universe ruler. However, it is impossible for me to continue to increase the dimension, because the number of dimensions a universe possesses is basically limited and it is impossible to break through the original upper limit.

However, if it can be continuously repaired, it is still possible to raise its original dimension. At that time, Luo Yuan will be equivalent to becoming the ruler of a higher dimension, thus completing the leap between two major realms. Moreover, he may even be able to take control of the powerful universe he was born from.

So those powerful figures who are high above others will actually recognize him as their master. According to the original plan set by Luo Yuan and the other inheritors, their status and strength should have been to first become the creator god, then the controller of the universe, and finally, if they had the opportunity, they might become the ruler of that universe.

However, this will require waiting for countless long years, and there may even be various problems in the process. At least the chance of reaching such a level is very low, because there are many inheritors, but very few spots to become such a super strong person. This means that the competition among these inheritors is extremely fierce.

To reach that level, there will inevitably be constant battles between them, and survival is still a question. The main problem is that it's too slow. Rather than wasting time like this, it would be more worthwhile to find another way to reclaim a more powerful universe and achieve a breakthrough.

Even if it takes the same amount of time to complete, the final result that Luo Yuan can achieve will definitely be more substantial than what he could achieve through continuous advancement in his original universe. Therefore, the assessment that Luo Yuan is participating in now is of paramount importance to him, because only by gaining sufficient status can he succeed.

Then he could become a high-level figure who controls the outer universe of this universe, thereby gaining more authority and cultivation resources. Once he achieves a breakthrough in his realm and becomes the controller of the universe, he can truly turn all the power of the outer universe into his own, including the primordial power there, which he can also control.

Moreover, this resource world controlled by the external universe will become his property, allowing him to complete the most important first step in his plan. Perhaps other powerful beings have not yet discovered the true value of this resource world, but he will not tell anyone this information in the future.

Because this is related to his future realm improvement and prospects, Luo Yuan is very fortunate that the inherited knowledge he has acquired contains a lot about the power of the world's origin and some detailed cosmic framework. If he did not know these things, he would not be able to understand the truth of this world through observation.

Even if he knew about it, he couldn't possibly encounter such an opportunity. Now that he knows what he should do next, he acts more efficiently than anyone else. It is for this reason that Luo Yuan chose the most difficult mode in the assessment, which is to start from the worst foundation and continuously improve his realm.

Only in this way can one obtain a higher score, but of course, the risk factor is also the highest. If there is even the slightest problem in the development process, one may be directly eliminated. This process of testing geniuses is extremely cruel; otherwise, why would so many strong individuals be eliminated during the assessment process?

They even knew that even if they managed to get here, the chances of standing out were extremely slim. But even so, they had to try, because if they succeeded, the benefits would be even greater. Even if they failed, there was nothing to say, because there was nothing to regret about constantly striving for their cultivation path.

In fact, once they reach their level, they don't even know how long they have lived. They have experienced everything that is meant to happen in the world. The only way they can continue is through their own beliefs and their exploration of the path of cultivation. If they lose the possibility of further improvement...

For them, life would be meaningless. That's why they would pay any price to break through their limits and see the scenery of a higher world, to understand what the universe is really like. In fact, once their lifespan reaches eternity, they will find that everything they pursued before was just a dream.

The reason they cared so much before was because they hadn't experienced it and therefore had a longing for it. But when they actually experienced it, they found that it was just like that, even quite different from what they had imagined. So they no longer had any illusions about such things.

What they really need to do now is to find the meaning of life. That's why they keep striving on the path of cultivation. No matter what secrets are behind it, those who really want to achieve a transformation in their life level through cultivation don't really care too much, because they value everything they see along the way.

Perhaps the outcome is the same, but the process is ever-changing. It allows them to feel that they are still alive. In fact, as Luo Yuan cultivated, he found that his state of mind was also changing in this direction. Even the people and things he used to care about were no longer so important to him after the long years.

Perhaps one day, the people and things he cares about will disappear, but he himself will continue on the path of the strong until the end of his life. Only in this way can he feel that the whole world is real. Many people say that the whole universe may just be a dream, that is, virtual.

But only after truly reaching a higher level can one see clearly what it is really like. In fact, no matter what the outcome is, Luo Yuan has nothing to regret, because he has discovered that everything he has experienced along the way has been very wonderful, and he feels that this is the kind of life he yearns for.

Chapter 843 Hope

Luo Yuan discovered that there were quite a few factions gathered in this eastern area, but they did not concentrate all their forces to attack the monsters at the beginning. Instead, they adopted a rotation system, meaning that the factions constantly changed positions and wore down the monsters over a long period of time.

The result of persisting in this way is that the strength of the human warriors has always been at its peak, while the demon beasts have been continuously eliminated, and their defenses have even been breached. This is because the number of human warriors far exceeds that of the demon beasts, which is why they can adopt this battle strategy.

However, everyone currently shares a common goal: to eliminate or drive away the demonic beasts. Then, all the treasures in this area will need to be contested among the powerful humans present. Of course, this is something that needs to be done later.

The immediate priority is to eliminate all these demonic beasts. If the defenses they have built cannot be broken, there will be no chance of obtaining the treasures. This is also a major reason why these different factions did not face attacks from other factions when they made their moves.

Because everyone believes that whoever strikes first will deplete their combat power, and they won't use their full strength in battle, as seizing the treasure is the most crucial part. They need to save most of their strength for that moment. Therefore, they can learn about the strength of these monsters through continuous battles.

They could also be completely exhausted. And those demonic beasts, having occupied this area, couldn't leave directly. Even if they knew the fighting style of the human powerhouses, they would be helpless and could only passively defend. Moreover, Luo Yuan noticed that neither the human powerhouses nor the demonic beasts had any powerhouses above the planetary level.

This is because such a powerful group represents the strongest existence in this peripheral region. They are in a standoff with each other. If a planetary-level being were to emerge from either side, it would disrupt the balance between them, leading to even more intense battles, which would be completely against the interests of both sides.

Because in the eyes of these powerful individuals, their own existence is the most important thing. Whether it's the treasures here or other purposes, even if they encounter danger, they can retreat directly, preserving their strongest combat power, thus ensuring their status. As long as they can do this, they can achieve their goal.

At that time, it would be very good to either reclaim these territories or acquire treasures. Moreover, the treasures that exist in this border area all have a time to mature. Even if the human powerhouses take the treasures away, they will leave this place.

Then those demonic beasts can return and occupy these areas, waiting for the treasures to ripen again so they can obtain them. Therefore, human powerhouses cannot stay here forever. It is for this reason that the battles between those demonic beasts will not be too intense.

Even if they were to lose in battle, they could still leave this place as long as they survived; they would only lose the treasure. Everyone maintained this tacit understanding, which is why they were able to maintain a state of initial balance.

After arriving here, Luo Yuan immediately led the human powerhouses under his command into the battle. However, because he himself was very strong, he could not display his true combat power and could only be in a commanding position without actually taking action.

Once Luo Yuan truly reveals his strength, it will attract a large number of powerful demonic beasts. Luo Yuan will then become the common enemy of those powerful demonic beasts, creating opportunities for the strong from other factions. However, this will not benefit Luo Yuan at all, but will instead bring him danger.

Therefore, smart people would not do this. Luo Yuan had experienced many battles before, so he was very capable in command. In his hands, those human powerhouses fought very well. Even if their individual strength was not complete, they were still very powerful under Luo Yuan's command.
