Chapter 948 The 8th Lord

Chapter 948 The Eighth Lord

The Eternal Land, a mysterious place within the endless primordial space, is only qualified to be visited by beings who have reached the level of immortality and indestructibility.

Each of these seats symbolizes an eternal being.

Unlike other mysterious places, the Eternal Land is not only extremely special, but its spatial suppression is also at its extreme.

In this space, every grain of dust on the land can suppress a high-level Chaos Origin life form, and the invisible pressure within the space can even turn a world-class Chaos Origin into dust.

As a second-class being in the endless primordial space, it doesn't even have the right to survive here.

Of the hundreds of progenitors in the primordial universe, only four have a seat here.

This vast, flat land has only one ancient round table, on which are endless mysterious patterns.

The round table had twenty-eight seats, and five figures were sitting in it.

The Endless Chaotic Space is simply too vast; no virtual network can cover the entire space simultaneously. Therefore, the most convenient way to communicate is still in this special and mysterious place.

Among the top three factions in the entire Endless Chaotic Origin Space, two of them engaged in a crucial battle, which naturally attracted the attention of the other factions.

This is a war that will determine the future situation of the entire Hunyuan Space, and no progenitor will miss it.

"The eighth cultivator lord has appeared. It seems that the cultivators may not necessarily lose this war." Many ancestral-level beings said with concern.

Then they witnessed a scene that left them speechless: the Giant Emperor was dead.

As one of the Nine Emperors of Hunyuan, although he was not ranked in the Eternal Land, his strength was still among the top in the Hunyuan Space, and yet he died just like that.

Its death was so ignominious, and even its two good brothers couldn't protect it, which was completely beyond the expectations of many ancestors.

Some of the Primordial Chaos Ancestors, who did not possess the characteristic of eternity, were even more terrified.

Fortunately, they didn't get involved. Even the Giant King was dead; if they had gotten involved, they would probably have met the same fate.

"These cultivator lords are truly powerful." On the Eternal Seat, a wisp of gray mist revealed an eye, watching the performance of the eighth lord with astonishment.

“The cultivator camp is too special. They are all weak beings in the source world who have cultivated step by step and finally mastered the essence of the highest power, standing shoulder to shoulder with us.”

“The birth of every lord is nothing short of a miracle.”

Although the endless primordial space is roughly divided into three major existences, in essence there are only two categories: acquired primordial world life and innate primordial primordial life.

Aside from cultivators, other progenitors or clans can also be classified as innate Hunyuan beings, meaning beings born at the Hunyuan level.

However, since these innate beings were too weak before birth and lacked immense pressure, they did not evolve into a single species.

The innate life force also did not want to see this outcome.

This means that at that time, acquired life possessed the power to suppress the entire innate life.

Just like the birth of the demon race, it was only because the human race was able to completely crush all other races with its own strength that the races of cattle, sheep, wolves, and tigers were able to unite into a single race concept.

Otherwise, would the sheep tribe consider themselves to be of the same kind as the tiger ancestor? They would start killing each other right away.

"It is indeed special. If all cultivators were like Lord Minghuang, perhaps I would have joined the ranks of cultivators as well," a figure dressed in white armor said coldly.

"Unfortunately, there are still despicable scoundrels like Jin among the cultivator lords. Last time in the Abyss of Destruction, he couldn't defeat me head-on, so he actually took advantage of my battle to ambush me."

“Jin, Moman, and Naigu are the three most despicable cultivator lords. They will stop at nothing to achieve victory,” said a creature with warm white wings.

Those who sit in these eternal seats are not afraid of the lords even in one-on-one combat; some are even stronger.

However, the three Gold Lords would occasionally act together, often ganging up on an eternal being.

Once people are called in and a group fight breaks out, even cultivators will stop recognizing right from wrong.

The terrifying power of seven cultivators fighting together has been experienced by the naturally formed Chaotic Origin Life Force on their behalf.

"The eight lords of the cultivator camp won. Just the eight lords working together held off over a hundred Primordial Ancestors, and even killed nearly ten of them, as well as the top-tier being, the Giant God Emperor," the gray mist creature said.

"The eight of them working together are no worse than us. The rise of the cultivator faction is probably unstoppable now," the feathered creature said solemnly.

Even the alliance of naturally formed chaotic beings failed, let alone other forces.

"And this Lord Yuan, he actually miraculously cultivated a life core, creating a weakness for himself out of nowhere. He might become the only lord who cannot be ranked among the eternal beings." The white-armored warrior was very curious about Lu Yunhe.

Once a cultivator lord is born, he or she will be considered an eternal being, which is truly the envy of other races.

"Although it has an additional weakness, with the potential to become a cultivator lord, it will probably reach the level of the Eternal sooner or later," the feathered creature said.

“But he hasn’t become immortal yet, so let’s not invite him for now. We’ll invite him after he becomes an eternal being,” the mist creature said.

“In fact, even now in the endless primordial space, there is probably no one who can kill Lord Yuan, nor is there any life form that can restrain him,” the feathered creature said.

"But there is still a possibility of being killed!"

The beings in the Eternal Land are watching this war closely, and thanks to their immortality, they are handling it with the ease of a chess player.

However, other smaller factions are much more worried, with some groups not even having a single eternal being.

"The cultivators' camp actually won, and even the Giant Emperor is dead!"

"We've invaded the world clusters of cultivators. Will we be targeted afterward?"

Some of the ancestors of Hunyuan were also somewhat panicked when they saw the outcome of the war.

While the two major factions were at war, other factions also took the opportunity to occupy several world clusters, and some even occupied more than a hundred world clusters.

The special creations nurtured within the world cluster can even have an effect on the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos. If the accumulation is deep enough, there is even a chance to go further and become an eternal existence.

Those born with the inherent qualities of Hunyuan beings are naturally powerful, and the resources nurtured by the Hunyuan space are also naturally more effective for them.

In contrast, cultivator lords have much less need for resources.

Many Primordial Ancestors were also angry about the behavior of cultivator lords who were occupying positions without fulfilling their duties. Therefore, in the later stages of the war, they secretly took action to occupy some key world groups.

It should be noted that the territory of the cultivator camp is arguably the most prosperous in the Hunyuan Space.

One world cluster is equivalent to dozens or even hundreds of world clusters in other locations.

Other forces were also envious of these world clusters. They hadn't dared to act before because of the cultivators' strength, but now that they had finally found an opportunity to occupy some world clusters, the cultivators' camp unexpectedly won.

"Twelve forces have taken advantage of this opportunity to invade the world cluster. Do the cultivators have the guts to wage a full-scale war against these twelve forces?"

“We made a move this time, and the cultivator lords must have already remembered it. Should we go and support the Infinite Serpent Ancestor and the others?” “Instead of supporting the Infinite Serpent Ancestor and the others, why not support the Ice Peak Faction?”

The Ice Peak Faction is one of the top three factions in the Endless Chaotic Origin Space. It is an alliance composed of twelve beings from the Eternal Land, and its number of Chaotic Origin Ancestors is second only to the Innate Chaotic Origin Life Faction.

Unfortunately, many members of the Ice Peak faction are lone wolves. Although they seem to be very intimidating, they lack sufficient connections, resulting in relationships that are not as good as those of the Innate Primordial Life faction, let alone the Cultivator faction.

In other words, they have strong theoretical knowledge, but in reality, they can't bring it to fruition.

Within the Ice Peak faction, some are interested in world clusters, while others only need the special resources within them, thus taking the opportunity to occupy hundreds of world clusters.

However, due to their strength, the Ice Peak faction did not care about this.

"Alas, the cultivator camp is still too exclusive," lamented one of the Primordial Ancestors of Hunyuan.

Despite the fact that the cultivator camp was so powerful, apart from seven or eight lords, not a single other Primordial Ancestor of Chaos joined.

It wasn't that the other Primordial Ancestors didn't want to join, but rather that the conditions for becoming a cultivator lord were too harsh.

It must be a Primordial Ancestor without a prior record, meaning one who has never destroyed the Origin World.

This condition was far too difficult for the uninhibited Primordial Ancestor; otherwise, many Primordial Ancestors would have wanted to join the ranks of cultivators.

"If the cultivator lord can forgive and forget, then I can become a cultivator too!"

……

The original place, the council hall!
Inside the hall was a black round table, its entire surface shimmering with crystal. It was crafted from the largest piece of "Dark Realm Crystal" ever discovered in the entire Infinite Chaos Space.

It is quite valuable and can serve as the core of a powerful force's territory.

Although the cultivator camp was suppressed by the innate chaotic life camp, the cultivators only lost some territory, while the latter lost a number of chaotic ancestors.

Beside the round table were eight chairs, all made of "Dark Realm Crystals".

"call!"

Eight figures descended upon the council hall. After confirming that the Primordial Ancestors had left, the eight lords returned together to their original place.

Lu Yunhe, along with the eight lords Yuan, Jin, Wulan, Minghuang, Naigu, Xingmang, and Moman, sat down. This meeting would determine the fate of countless cultivators.

Unlike the cosmic sovereigns, in the endless primordial space, world-level primordial beings have no voting rights, let alone decision-making power, in front of ancestral beings.

As Lu Yunhe sat on the Dark Realm Crystal chair, he instantly sensed a spacetime array.

The spacetime array, with the black round table at its core, connects the entire spacetime network.

In an instant, all 3,600 world groups within the spacetime network were within the sensing range.

Even though some world clusters have fallen and the spacetime network has been damaged, the spacetime network of past timelines remains intact and can still be explored everywhere.

"So this is the function of the Dark Realm Crystal!" Lu Yunhe realized.

Having such a powerful tool to monitor information within the territory is indeed beneficial for governance.

With the Dark Realm Crystal and the Spacetime Network, the entire cultivator territory no longer needs to be maintained entirely by the Star Lords; the other lords can also use this to manage the vast territory.

"Finally, there's another seat in the council hall." Yuan looked at Lu Yunhe, his heart filled with joy.

"It's been too long, endless years have finally brought forth a new lord," Yuan sighed.

Among the many lords, perhaps no one has a deeper affection for the attribute faction than him, and he has even gradually attached himself to this concept.

"Yuan, will your eagerness to break through this time affect your future cultivation path?" Yuan couldn't help but ask with concern after his joy subsided.

If the cultivator faction were to block Yuan's future path, Yuan would find it hard to accept.

Yuan genuinely cared for those talented juniors, especially since Yuan was, in some ways, practically his disciple.

Upon hearing this, the other six lords also quietly turned their gazes to Lu Yunhe.

The seven lords were naturally aware of what had happened to Lu Yunhe.

In order to prevent the collapse of the entire cultivator camp, Lu Yunhe also forced a breakthrough and in a short period of time possessed power comparable to the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos.

As it turns out, if Lu Yunhe hadn't broken through in time, the seven lords would have been no match for the siege of over a hundred Hunyuan Ancestors.

However, this also broke the characteristic that cultivator lords must exist eternally.

Although their strength is not bad, whether or not they have the Eternal Trait is indeed very important.

Without the eternal characteristic, no matter how strong one is, there is still a possibility of being killed.

If one possesses the property of eternity, even the original progenitor can disregard the other progenitors.

After all, the core of cultivation is eternity, not the relentless pursuit of power.

"Brother Yuan, don't worry. Although I broke through ahead of schedule, it won't have a big impact on my future cultivation." Lu Yunhe shook his head.

The forced breakthrough did have some impact on him, as he was originally destined to become the Hunyuan Lord with immortality.

However, due to the forced breakthrough, the Three Thousand Great Daos spontaneously formed the highest level of power.

This means that Lu Yunhe must first fully comprehend his own power.

Otherwise, if you comprehend new power and it conflicts with your current power, you will be completely blocked.

However, since it was originally his, and now that he has broken through to the Primordial Ancestor level, his talents in all aspects have been further enhanced, so it won't have a significant impact. At most, it will just take a little more time.

This has its downsides, but it also has its advantages.

Not only did he break through to the level of the Primordial Ancestor ahead of schedule, but he also formed his original life core, endowing him with extremely powerful innate qualities.

As the darlings of the Chaotic Origin Space, naturally born beings possess innate talents that are lacking in cultivators.

Now, taking this opportunity to correct his congenital defects and directly revert to his innate state after birth would be of great benefit to Lu Yunhe.

"Having become an innate life form, walking the path of a cultivator, and imitating the source world system, the combination of these three elements constitutes my path of cultivation."

Lu Yunhe pondered.
