I picked up attributes in Swallowing Star.

Ultimately, this will weaken the entire power, and if this happens, it will be swallowed up by other powers. Therefore, in order to maintain their position, they must have more outstanding geniuses emerge. So the real reason they do this is to ensure that their position remains unchanged.

Of course, these high-level figures will also pay close attention to the top geniuses. If these geniuses perform too well, they can restrain them through certain means or establish a relationship with them. Then, even if these geniuses can grow up, they will be able to achieve their goals.

They also cannot pose a real threat to them. Even if the high-level positions are given to these geniuses, they will not be affected and will receive more respect. No strong person can maintain strong combat power indefinitely.

Because once their strength cannot be improved, they will never be stuck at the corresponding level. Once someone surpasses them, their strength and status will be affected. Therefore, the best way is to cultivate someone who is even more outstanding for them.

If short-term investments can help these geniuses build relationships and develop a high degree of loyalty, then over time, these geniuses will gradually become grateful for the contributions of these powerful individuals.

Therefore, once these talents truly mature, these powerful individuals will also reap corresponding benefits. So the whole process is not as simple as it seems; in fact, there is a connection of interests from beginning to end, no matter where it is.

As long as there is wisdom, these intelligent groups will establish relationships based on mutual interests when they interact with each other, only differing in the magnitude of those interests. Therefore, when considering problems, they will definitely start from their own perspective and consider how to obtain the greatest return with the least effort; this is what they are truly concerned about.

If someone cannot offer them value and benefit, then naturally they won't waste their time on such people, because they can't gain anything from them. The so-called emotional value actually comes from them; these powerful individuals need to obtain corresponding value in order to form a connection. Otherwise, if there is no contact between the two, how can there be any relationship?

Luo Yuan was also very clear about these things. Moreover, when different forces in the universe establish connections, they often show more obvious signs in terms of the distribution of benefits. So-called emotions are often just an awkward situation formed to cover up this relationship of interests. They can never directly express the true nature of the matter.

Of course, there is another situation where emotions have no standard of measurement and are even less likely to generate tangible benefits. If one can exchange something without any real effort for more tangible benefits, then most people would be willing to do so.

Therefore, the weak are the ones who truly consider all emotions, while the strong are more concerned with the exchange of interests and values. Luo Yuan never believed that there were people in this world who were kind to him for no reason, and he also understood what he truly needed to give up to join this cause.

However, he couldn't directly reveal his thoughts. After Luo Yuan chose a relatively powerful secret realm, he discovered that there were indeed many powerful individuals in the secret realm. Luo Yuan didn't know that this space had been opened up for a long time, so the number of powerful individuals at the Immortal Realm who had accumulated over a long period of time was actually very large.

After all, once they reach the immortal realm, as long as they are not destroyed in battle, their lifespan is already extremely long. Unless the entire origin of the universe is completely destroyed, they may disappear along with the universe.

In fact, no matter how outstanding these geniuses are in their daily lives, and how hard they train and fight, if the origin of the entire universe is not fully repaired, and once the real problems disappear completely, then all the efforts of these geniuses will be in vain.

This is why the primordial will, even if it uses all the powerful beings in this universe as expendable resources, must quickly enhance their strength in order to truly change the current impact on the primordial universe and restore it, ultimately leading to a transformation. In fact, Luo Yuan did not pay too much attention to these powerful beings in this universe.

Because he knew very well that as long as he could control the origin of this universe, he could create countless geniuses with a single thought, and then provide them with resources so that they could grow up quickly and become stronger.

Moreover, these powerful beings who have integrated a large amount of primordial power and special substances can actually be regarded as a kind of cultivation resource in this universe. If they continue to fight like this, it will not have much effect on the universe as a whole.

Because if the most outstanding sovereign powerhouses cannot reappear, then the primal power they have fused together will eventually dissipate. In particular, once Luo Yuan completes the restoration of the universe's origin, he will take back all the primal power fused together by these powerhouses.

Only in this way can the entire universe truly return to its normal state. However, doing so will have a huge impact on these powerful individuals, because many of them have improved through the fusion of primordial power during their cultivation process.

Once their original power is stripped away, their realm will immediately decline, their strength will be affected, and even their talent and future potential will be greatly impacted. As for the development of the entire universe, it has little to do with these powerful individuals, and they are unlikely to care about these things. They may even unite to resist the original will.

If Luo Yuan were to replace the original will with his own consciousness, then these powerful beings would rebel against him. If that were the case, Luo Yuan would rather simply wipe them all out to ensure the redevelopment of the entire universe, and only then would he have truly achieved his goal.

So no matter what they do, these powerful beings in this universe will ultimately not survive. So since that's the case, Luo Yuan simply devoured all the power they possessed, including the source power. He had no reason to hold back.

Chapter 905 Collection

In the vast and boundless secret realm, Luo Yuan is constantly exploring dangerous areas. He finds himself encountering many powerful individuals along the way, but these individuals maintain a high degree of vigilance towards each other and will not easily make a move unless they encounter a very important treasure.

The area they are in is not a good place to fight, because the secret realm is not only home to these talented explorers, but also to some powerful native monsters.

Their current location is in an area where these monsters are concentrated. If they fight here, they will definitely be surrounded and attacked by the monsters, and they will have no advantage whatsoever. Therefore, even if they want to fight, they must choose a suitable location.

The best place to do this is somewhere where powerful beings are concentrated. If all these powerful beings are gathered together, even if the monsters want to attack, they will be hesitant and will not act rashly.

It should be noted that those demonic beasts are not unintelligent; they are able to discern changes in the situation. Furthermore, these geniuses must first acquire sufficient resources before choosing to fight other powerful individuals during their exploration here.

Because if they don't gain any benefits during the battle, they will offend some people as soon as they make a move. In this case, they will have no choice but to leave the secret realm. Therefore, they must ensure that they have a safety net before they do so.

In other words, by acquiring these resources first, even if it turns out that the opponent is difficult to defeat, one can retreat in time and will not let such an event delay one's future cultivation process. Luo Yuan had already obtained a detailed map of the secret realm before arriving here, so he knew which direction to explore to be the safest.

Luo Yuan wouldn't go directly to the core area, because that's where a large number of powerful individuals are concentrated. No matter how strong Luo Yuan is, he can't fight against most of the geniuses and powerful individuals by himself. So the best way is to explore the outer areas first and find any lone powerful individuals to eliminate.

In order to obtain the power of origin, Luo Yuan is different from other geniuses who explore, because his main purpose in coming to this secret realm is to collect a large amount of power of origin.

If I can eliminate these powerful beings, I can not only obtain the source power I want, but also get enough cultivation resources from them, thus saving myself the time I would otherwise spend searching for these cultivation resources.

In fact, there must be many strong people like Luo Yuan, but they would not set their sights on these weaker strong people from the beginning like Luo Yuan did. This is because these local strong people have also understood in the long process of cultivation that in order to become stronger, they must have the heart of a strong person.

If, when faced with problems, they only think about robbing the treasures of the weak, over time they will gradually get used to this state of life and combat, and thus lose the belief in challenging the stronger.

After all, if someone is already quite strong, then only by challenging stronger beings can they make greater progress. If they are content with fighting and eliminating those weaker than themselves, they will only give themselves a false sense of security.

If one feels invincible, over time one will become arrogant and complacent, losing respect for the strong. Once encountering someone stronger than oneself, one may lose rational judgment.

The ultimate result will definitely be their annihilation by the strong. Therefore, in order to become stronger, they should put their true thoughts into their daily cultivation and combat. Moreover, the reason they come to the secret realm to fight is not just for cultivation resources and source power.

The intention is also to improve one's combat abilities through this method. The power of origin can enhance a person's foundation and corresponding energy reserves, but it cannot improve a person's combat skills and experience. These things can only be obtained through one's own accumulated combat experience.

Moreover, for these geniuses, if they only spend their time improving their realm during their cultivation process and neglect improving their combat power, they will lose their advantage when facing truly superior opponents.

Moreover, if one's combat strength is not strong enough, then even if one encounters an existence weaker than oneself, one may still be eliminated. Under such circumstances, these powerful individuals would certainly not accept it. Luo Yuan also wanted to see what kind of precious cultivation resources were available in such a high-level secret realm.

After all, he hadn't explored any places after arriving in this space. This was not only because he could sense that his strength improvement had hit a bottleneck, but also because he needed to master all the powerful secret techniques of the faction he had joined in the shortest possible time.

Otherwise, if he arrives in the corresponding secret realm but is unable to possess strong combat abilities, then he must be careful. The powerful individuals who can enter the secret realm must have cultivated the various secret techniques of the forces they have joined to a very high level.

Therefore, the combat methods they can use must be extremely powerful. In this situation, Luo Yuan cannot rely solely on his rich combat experience to deal with them, because no matter how rich the combat experience is, it is useless in the face of absolute strength.

The reason Luo Yuan was able to defeat those ten outstanding geniuses was because his strength and realm were not much different from those ten geniuses, so Luo Yuan was able to suppress them all with a very powerful manner.

However, this does not mean that Luo Yuan is already very powerful now. That is because he was a newcomer who had just joined the force. Therefore, the veteran experts who had cultivated for a long time could not attack him, because in their eyes he was just a junior who had just grown up.

Their battles were merely minor skirmishes, so while the higher-ups recognized Luo Yuan's exceptional talent, they wouldn't blindly consider him the strongest. They needed to observe and nurture him over a long period to determine if he was worth further development.

Therefore, joining the battle in the secret realm is the best way, because these geniuses can establish higher prestige by fighting each other in the secret realm. This will also make more powerful people aware of their existence. The reputation of any genius is earned through their own strength in battle.

If you want to become stronger and receive better treatment, you must eliminate more talents from other forces in the secret realm. This will not only weaken the strength of other forces, but also prove your own combat power.

So once you return to your faction with a huge contribution, you will receive corresponding benefits. When Luo Yuan arrived in this secret realm, he also learned about the detailed rules and requirements of this faction regarding battles between geniuses and experts.

It even listed how many contribution points could be obtained after eliminating geniuses from different factions, which shows that there are still some geniuses in this space who have shown great strength in battle, thereby enhancing their reputation.

This way, more powerful people will know about them. However, no matter what kind of genius they are, as long as they appear, they can be listed on the genius list. Moreover, all the geniuses on the genius list have a price tag. Once someone eliminates them, they can obtain the corresponding force contribution points.

Of course, this also means that other powerful individuals will become aware of their abilities and methods. If a powerful individual wants to deal with them, it will become dangerous. However, the problem is that these geniuses use this method to directly face even more powerful beings and improve their own strength.

If someone avoids fighting for fear of danger, they will only be looked down upon by powerful figures from different factions. True geniuses are not afraid of battle; they only become excited when they encounter someone stronger, thus displaying even greater combat prowess.

There are even some races in the universe who unleash their potential through powerful battles, rapidly increasing their strength. Those who are qualified to be on the genius list are all exceptionally talented; otherwise, they wouldn't be qualified.

Luo Yuan has just become a new genius in this space, so it is impossible for him to be listed immediately. Only by demonstrating his strength and making more people aware of his existence can he be listed.

As long as he can leave his name behind, even if Luo Yuan doesn't actively challenge other geniuses in the future, those geniuses will find opportunities to challenge him. At that time, Luo Yuan can openly and fairly eliminate them and obtain everything from them.

However, Luo Yuan would not make a move right now, because he knew that the real geniuses were definitely moving closer to the core area of ​​this secret realm, because it was not only a place where strong people gathered, but also a place with more cultivation resources.

The best approach would be for Luo Yuan to defeat them all once they had all gathered together, thus saving himself some trouble. Therefore, he wasn't in a hurry and could observe the area from the edge first, potentially gaining more primal power in the process.

Because he couldn't possibly restrain all the powerful individuals during the battle, once they discovered the danger they encountered, they would definitely retreat immediately, even though they knew that only through fighting could they improve their combat power.

However, they would not put themselves in absolute danger for such reasons. If the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, it would be unwise to fight. While Luo Yuan was constantly challenging and eliminating those lone geniuses on the edge of the area, the number of powerful figures gathering in the core area of ​​this secret realm was increasing.

They are mostly geniuses from different factions, and many of them did not come here voluntarily, but were asked by their faction's higher-ups to come here and challenge geniuses from other factions.

Therefore, these people don't really value the cultivation resources in the secret realm. The reason is that this secret realm is only considered an average existence in the entire space. So even if the cultivation resources here are good, they can't possibly surpass the treasures they can usually obtain from the forces.

In this situation, the only thing they really need to do is challenge the strongmen of other forces, which is also their true purpose for coming here. Of course, another situation is that these geniuses who come here are often newly rising stars who do not have much reputation.

They need to fight to become stronger and gain real fame in this space, because only in this way can they get their names on the genius list. In this space, the ranking of any force depends not only on its overall strength.

It also depends on how many places these geniuses can leave on the genius list. In particular, if a powerful force can occupy a large number of high-ranking positions on the list, the benefits they receive are unimaginable.

Although these people do not understand how the primordial will exists and operates, they can clearly feel that there is a certain will controlling this space. If they perform better, they will receive more resources. After all, the primordial will cannot keep an eye on things while maintaining the normal operation of these spaces.

Therefore, it is operated according to some fixed procedures. Once it is discovered that a certain force or strong person has extremely high cultivation value, the resources in this space will be used to purge them, so as to make them stronger.

Only after cultivating a satisfactory genius can they be sent to a more powerful space for further training. It is precisely because of this training method that the strength and talent of the experts who gather in higher spaces are also enhanced.

So, in his next cultivation process, Luo Yuan can only become stronger so that he can adapt to the increasingly powerful environment in this space. Even though Luo Yuan's original realm was very high, his cultivation process here will not be too smooth. So, the final method is to make himself have a stronger foundation and more powerful methods than before.

Moreover, because these powerful individuals all moved closer to the core area, no one paid attention to what was happening in the peripheral areas. Although the strength of those powerful individuals exploring the peripheral areas was not very strong, they were still excellent cultivation resources for Luo Yuan.

Luo Yuan continued to eliminate more and more lone powerful individuals, thereby accumulating more source power for himself. Of course, all the cultivation resources obtained by these powerful individuals during their exploration were also obtained by Luo Yuan. Luo Yuan already felt that the cultivation source power he had accumulated was more than the total amount he had obtained outside the land.

This also fully demonstrates that obtaining the primordial power in a higher space is much easier than in a previous space, and even if Luo Yuan does not gain any benefits in the core area, he can safely evacuate.

Because he has basically achieved his goal this time. Of course, it would be even better if he could obtain more source power from the core power, but Luo Yuan cannot underestimate these geniuses.

Chapter 906 Cooperative Battle

Chapter 906 Cooperative Battle

As time passed, Luo Yuan had eliminated many lone geniuses on the outskirts, thus accumulating a considerable amount of primal power. Luo Yuan felt it was necessary for him to head to the core area now, because his appearance had caused many geniuses to notice that something was amiss and choose to gather in the core area ahead of time.

Many talented individuals originally planned to first gain experience in the peripheral areas to acquire resources before exploring the core. This would make them safer, as the core area is undoubtedly a gathering place for powerful individuals, and they might not be able to obtain the corresponding benefits there.

So they could take advantage of the fact that others weren't paying attention to the edge of the area to accumulate some resources in advance. However, they never expected that even so, they would still be unable to avoid attacks from a powerful figure like Luo Yuan.

Luo Yuan felt no shame for his actions. After all, there were no rules to restrain them in this secret realm. For all the powerful individuals, it didn't matter what means they used as long as they could become stronger.

Since Luo Yuan has already eliminated many geniuses, making them aware that a very powerful being is hunting them in the borderlands, there's no need for them to stay here any longer. After all, their purpose in coming here is to obtain cultivation resources more safely.

However, they discovered that the danger level here was also very high, so Luo Yuan naturally had no need to stay here any longer. He also wanted to be like the other geniuses and keep moving closer to the core power. In the process of getting closer, he noticed that the number of strong people was increasing.

Moreover, the monsters they encountered on their journey were even stronger. However, these monsters did not expend much energy fighting these powerful beings. Instead, they merely probed the area before parting ways with the path leading to the core.

Luo Yuan felt that this situation was very abnormal. Perhaps it was because a more powerful demon beast had given the order from within the core power. In fact, when humans were dealing with these demon beasts, these demon beasts would turn around and treat humans as their opponents.

Moreover, humans can obtain necessary cultivation resources from demonic beasts, and in turn, demonic beasts can use humans as resources to improve their strength. Therefore, the core area is not only home to powerful human experts, but also to demonic beasts whose strength has reached the top level in this secret realm.

Even though Luo Yuan is very strong, he cannot guarantee that he will be able to obtain all the necessary resources in the core area. However, he must follow the rules set by these powerful figures in order to ensure a safer environment for himself.

Although there are no fixed rules in the secret realm, as long as these forces can restrain their geniuses from acting according to certain rules, then everyone can maintain a normal situation. Otherwise, if everyone comes to the secret realm without any constraints, and instead only acts according to the strength of their opponents, then the situation will remain normal.

Then the battle ensued, ultimately leading to chaos throughout the entire secret realm. This situation was highly advantageous for the monsters within, as they had long established their own territories due to their long-term presence there.

Furthermore, they can be said to be very united. Even if they have some conflicts in normal times, they can still unite against humans. If the strong humans do not have a sense of unity and fight each other in the secret realm, they may end up with nothing and be wiped out by the monsters.

The reason this situation exists now is because long ago, before any rules were established, powerful humans fought each other. In the end, they not only failed to improve their strength and obtain the corresponding cultivation resources, but many powerful individuals also perished in that secret realm.

Therefore, Luo Yuan was only attacked by those demonic beasts along the way, and was not attacked by human powerhouses from different forces. This is because, according to the corresponding rules, they cannot fight here yet, but can only divide up the corresponding areas within the core power.

Moreover, only after the threat posed by the demonic beasts is eliminated will the true duel between geniuses begin. This duel is far more brutal than those within the forces one has joined, because there is only one kind of duel in the secret realm: a battle to the death.

Those who succeed can gain everything, while those who fail in battle will only perish. Therefore, every genius attaches great importance to the challenges in the secret world. Of course, in order to ensure that different forces can obtain the greatest benefits.

Therefore, geniuses of equal strength cannot challenge each other; they can only challenge geniuses from other factions. However, if a genius from one's own faction attacks a powerful figure, then the genius can be eliminated without regard to such rules. So, unless absolutely necessary, geniuses of equal strength will not easily clash.

Unless it's a high-ranking figure in the faction who wants to cultivate more outstanding experts, they would choose such a life-or-death battle to let geniuses duel. However, such duels rarely occur and are usually only possible after a long period of time.
