Swallowing the Stars: Cultivate to Become Stronger

Imperial capital, Qingyin Pavilion.

Luo Shen, who had not come out for a long time, came again, attracting the attention of many powerful people, and Di Chuyu arrived at Qingyin Pavilion as soon as possible.

"Brother Shenyuan, have you gained anything from your long period of seclusion?"

While listening to the music played by the master of Qingyin Pavilion, Di Chuyu looked at Luo Shen with a smile. To be accepted as a disciple by the First Ancestor, even if it was just a nominal disciple, Luo Shen must have some advantages that others were unknown to. After all, at the beginning, the Emperor was not sure whether to accept him as a disciple, but the First Ancestor directly bypassed the Emperor and accepted him as a disciple.

He has been in seclusion for such a long time since he became my disciple. He must have gained some benefits from the ancestor.

He was not quite clear about the fact that Luo Shen left the imperial capital during his retreat to kill the top-level Chaos Lord, Wusha Dasheng. After all, after Luo Shen became the disciple of the ancestor, his authority was much higher than that of a first-class marquis, and he had no idea that he had accepted the bounty mission to kill Wusha Dasheng.

Listening to Di Chuyu's words, Luo Shen smiled and said, "I did gain something. If I fight with Palace Master Yuan Xiu again, even if I enter his secret palace, I won't be trapped for too long."

Upon hearing this, Di Chuyu's eyes suddenly lit up.

You know, Palace Master Yuan Xiu is at the transcendent level of Chaos Lord. When he discussed Taoism with Luo Shen that day, although he failed to drag Luo Shen into the Dark Palace prison, the combat power he displayed can definitely be regarded as the top level among the transcendent Chaos Lords.

Facing such a strong man, Abyss actually has the confidence to break free from his dark palace?

Even if a God King of the first level is imprisoned in the Dark Palace prison, it will take a long time to break free. It seems that Abyss has indeed gained a lot of benefits from the hands of the Ancestor. His strength has been significantly improved, and he is so confident.

Then Di Chuyu asked some questions about cultivation.

As the saying goes, a wise man is a good teacher. Moreover, Luo Shen's achievements in the way of the divine body are much stronger than Di Chuyu's, so he can naturally give him some good suggestions. However, since the origin of the way that Di Chuyu practiced is different from the origin of life and the origin of destruction that he comprehended, he did not mention any suggestions in this regard.

After all, even the ancestor is not omniscient and omnipotent. Being proficient in everything means being proficient in nothing.

The vast majority of powerful people only practice a few of these great ways.

Just as the two were chatting happily, suddenly a task reminder sound came from the token and immediately caught their attention, because this time the task was sent to both of their tokens at the same time, in no particular order!

Because he became the disciple of the founding ancestor, Luo Shen's authority is much higher than that of Di Chuyu and other first-class officials, and he is also superior to them in terms of task priority.

Generally speaking, Luo Shen would make his selection first, and then the remaining tasks would be chosen by the first-class candidates.

Like this time, the tasks were sent directly to the first-class tokens without being selected by Luo Shen. This was the first time such a situation had occurred.

So Luo Shen and Di Chuyu both looked at the task that had just been issued.

"Tiantian level!?"

Di Chuyu was completely stunned. Looking at the words "that level figure", his throat couldn't help but feel dry. You know, the highest mission that a first-class marquis of the royal family can usually get is a king-level mission. Of course, over the thousands or even tens of thousands of centuries, there would occasionally be one or two higher-level earth-level missions.

These earth-level tasks are usually selected by the God Kings, and only if no one chooses them will they fall on the shoulders of the first-class marquises.

As for the Heavenly Grade mission, even Marquis Chuxiong, who had been a First-Class Marquis for the longest time, had never encountered one. This was a mission that would only appear occasionally once in hundreds of thousands of epochs or even longer. Even a First-Class Marquis might only have one chance in his lifetime to come across a mission of this level.

If Luo Shen had been a guest official before he became Yan Feng's disciple, he would not have been qualified to receive this task.

Because this task is given to the first-class marquis of the royal family and the first-level God King.

If it weren't for the fact that Luo Shen's status was improved by becoming a disciple of the founder of Yanfeng, this task would probably have skipped him and been directly awarded to the tokens of other first-class marquises.

In fact, the heavenly-level missions were mainly due to the precious resources that the Yanfeng ancestor had given to the thirteen branches. According to the royal family's rules, the Emperor and the second and third-level God Kings could each be allocated a certain amount of resources according to their status and position, without having to participate in competition.

Only the first-level God Kings and first-class marquises need to compete brutally.

The excellent ones can get more resources, while the weak ones can only get a little leftovers, or even the soup residue. They can only watch other competitors stride forward and surpass themselves, and eventually they can't even see the exhaust gas of their cars.

Where there is competition, there is naturally the motivation for growth.

The Ancestor of Yanfeng will not provide resources for nothing. Only those who are outstanding enough can be seen by him and then obtain more resources for cultivation.

Just like Emperor Chu and other emperors, ordinary royal heirs are left in a small universe. Only royal heirs who grow up to become eternal true gods can come out of the small universe and be trained intensively.

Resources are limited.

Even a powerful country like Yanfeng Ancient Country cannot support the resource consumption of so many powerful people at the same time.

Therefore, they can only cultivate the best among them like cultivating poisonous insects, until they grow up to the level of thirteen emperors, or even the ancestor!

"If you can enter the top ten of a Heaven-level mission, you will get more resources than completing hundreds or thousands of bounty missions!"

Di Chuyu looked at Luo Shen with eager eyes.

He knew that with his strength at the peak level of Chaos Overlord, he certainly had no advantage in this Heaven-level mission. Even if he used his backup plan, he might not be able to stand out among the many first-class marquises, not to mention that there were many powerful Royal God Kings of the first level participating in the mission this time.

Noticing Di Chuyu's gaze, Luo Shen hesitated for a moment, then said to him, "Don't worry, I'm here, we'll secure the two top ten spots for this Heaven-level mission!"

Outside the void of the Continent of Origin, in a mysterious palace in an illusory world, thoughts converge.

"The latest information is that the Yanfeng Ancestor recently brought back a batch of precious cultivation resources, which are rated as heavenly level. Now the Yanfeng Ancient Country has sent out heavenly level figures to let the first-level God Kings and first-level marquises compete, and the resources will be distributed according to the ranking."

"The thirteen emperors of the Yanfeng Ancient Country have always regarded us as a scourge and won't let us get close. Even if we dare to reach out for some rare treasures born in the territory of the Yanfeng Ancient Country, they will issue bounties to target us, hoping to bring us down to dust!"

"But it's different now." "Those first-class marquises and first-level divine kings will definitely need some helpers to compete for the rankings, and we are the best helpers!"

"If they were to share the resources they had obtained with us, even the thirteen emperors and the Flame Wind Ancestor would not be able to stop them. After all, it is only natural for us to receive some compensation for helping them."

There are too many ancient beings on the Continent of Origin.

They have long been envious and even jealous of the ancient country that spans most of the Origin Continent and the large amount of resources they occupy. After all, the ancestors of the ancient country can obtain a large amount of resources outside the cage, even if it is only the part they don't need, which is an incomparably huge resource for them.

But they can't even touch a single bit of these resources.

A thought said: "In terms of talent potential, how can the talent potential of the royal families of the two ancient countries be compared with us, the elites selected from countless practitioners in the Origin Continent? They are just accumulated by relying on a large amount of precious resources and inheritance."

You know, in terms of resources, these strong men can't compare with the Thirteen Emperors of the Ancient Yanfeng Country at all, and they can't even reach one ten-thousandth of the other side.

But they still stand at the same starting line.

It is conceivable how much these strong men covet those huge resources. They even feel that if they are replaced by the Thirteen Emperors and possess such huge resources, they may even be on par with the Ancestor of Yanfeng!

"The ancient country said that it treats all practitioners equally, allowing us to serve as guest officials and exchange our merit points for inheritance!"

"However, after serving as a guest official for hundreds of thousands of epochs and accumulating a large amount of merit points, it is not enough to exchange for a divine king's ultimate realm inheritance!"

The ultimate inheritance of the God King of the two ancient countries requires at least tens of millions of merit points to exchange for a complete inheritance. If it is the precious Hunyuan bloodline inheritance or the inheritance cultivated with the help of the Hunyuan power, it will be as high as hundreds of millions of merit points!
Only by killing a top Chaos Overlord can you get hundreds of thousands of merit points.

With tens of millions of merit points, one would have to kill at least dozens of top-level Chaos Lords. How difficult is that!

Not to mention, there are still many cultivation resources in the ancient country that they cannot reach at all. They are not even qualified to exchange them. Only the children of the royal family can exchange them.

They are so greedy!

But they could not touch any of the precious resources that the royal children of the ancient country could choose at will, and they dared not rob them, because as soon as they did, the emperors who had been watching them would find a suitable excuse to kill them completely and plunder all the wealth they had accumulated over the years!
However, this does not include selecting an object to help in the heavenly mission. The Emperor will not object to obtaining treasure resources in this way.

Perhaps this is also a means of checks and balances.

Every royal descendant’s heavenly mission has three sub-tasks!

Among them, the first two subtasks are individual tasks and cannot rely on help from others, while the third subtask is a joint competition task. There are no restrictions on seeking help or cooperating with each other.

The first two sub-tasks are just similar to bounty missions and killing missions.

Royal children of different strengths have corresponding killing tasks. For example, the first-class marquises almost all have to kill the top-level Chaos Overlords, while the first-level God Kings of a higher level have other requirements.

Luo Shen has two sub-tasks. One is to kill the top-level green dragon, the Lord of Chaos, who is causing chaos in the frozen lake area of ​​Dongjiang.

This green dragon is born with control over the origin of weak water. In the territory of Frozen Lake, its strength is hundreds and thousands of times stronger than that in other areas. Even the strong men at the peak level of Chaos Overlord cannot do anything to him, and his means of preserving his life are even more powerful.

Transform your body into a dragon and turn it into endless waters!
The frozen lake will never dry up, and the green dragon will never die!

He has almost turned the entire frozen lake into a part of his body. Because of this, his terrifying ability to preserve his life, coupled with his combat power comparable to that of a peak Chaos Lord, is also the reason why other strong men are unwilling to provoke him.

However, because a special treasure called 'Green Spirit Snail' was born in the East Frontier, even though practitioners knew that it was the territory of the green dragon Master Donghu, there were still a steady stream of them going there, and then they were completely killed by the water of the Donghu Lake that he moved!

In fact, if the green dragon did not want other practitioners to come, with his control over the frozen lake, as long as other lives set foot in the frozen lake, he would be able to discover them at the first time and expel them.

But I don't know whether it is to satisfy his own desire to kill or for other purposes.

Although the Green Dragon would occasionally launch a massive killing spree, causing the deaths of a large number of practitioners, there were always lucky ones who obtained the Green Spirit Snail, brought it back, and exchanged it for practice resources and inheritance, thus becoming a powerful person in one fell swoop!
This story of a person becoming strong quickly has inspired a large number of practitioners to go to the frozen lake one after another, trying to replicate such good luck.

That's why.

The monstrous killing spree started by the Green Dragon caused dissatisfaction among the two ancient nations, so they took advantage of this heavenly mission to assign this task to Luo Shen, who had killed the top Chaos Overlord twice in a row, in order to test Luo Shen's methods.

In fact, failure to complete this hunting mission will not have much impact and will not deprive Luo Shen of the qualification to participate in the ranking.

However, each subtask has a corresponding score value.

If these two individual sub-tasks are not completed, then one will be at a great disadvantage in the subsequent rankings, so those who accept the heavenly-level tasks are almost forced to solve these difficult tasks.

"This second task is also not an easy one to solve."

Luo Shen looked at his second subtask and couldn't help but take a deep breath. Compared with the object of the second subtask, the object of the first task, the green dragon, seemed a little inferior.

Because in the task object of that sub-task, it was clearly written - "Kill the severely injured Chaos Lord Transcendent 'White Night Devil'"!
The White Night Demon is a famous demon on the Origin Continent!
In just half a century, he destroyed thirteen cities in a row, slaughtered all the practitioners there, devoured their flesh, blood, and souls, and refined them into his weapon, the 'White Demon Banner'!
The White Demon Banner was originally just an ordinary God-King-level weapon, but because it absorbed the blood and souls of billions of lives, it was transformed into a terrifying magic weapon by some unknown means used by the White Night Demon!
There was once a Chaos Lord who was above the rest. Seven Chaos Lords at the peak level joined forces to try to subdue the White Night Demon.

As a result, the White Night Demon relied on the power of the White Demon Banner to severely injure the Chaos Lord and kill three top Chaos Lords. The name of the White Night Demon and the White Demon Banner was also made famous throughout the Origin Continent.

The White Night Demon originally wanted to continue doing evil, but was severely injured by Chu Yan, one of the thirteen emperors of the ancient Yanfeng Kingdom. Most of his soul was destroyed, and even Chu Yan's original fire still remains in his soul, making it impossible for him to fully recover.

However, the White Night Demon had been doing evil for many years and used many methods, but he finally escaped from Chu Yan's hands.

This time, as one of Luo Shen's king-level sub-tasks, it is actually a test for him by Yan Feng Ancestor. If he can pass this test, Yan Feng Ancestor will also increase his training for Luo Shen. (End of this chapter)
