Swallowing the Stars: Cultivate to Become Stronger

"Although your body has just broken through to the Divine King, it is tough and solid, and it is difficult to erase. You have a deep understanding of the mysteries of the origin of matter, and have integrated it into the origin of life. Even if a powerful person at the level of an emperor destroys your body, you can still recover from nothingness."

The Flame Wind Ancestor praised.

Of course, although this body is powerful, it is not so powerful that even the emperor cannot completely annihilate it. At most, it can only be used a few times.

However, from this point, it is also indirectly revealed that Luo Shen's divine body is below the level of the Emperor. Even the Emperor Guixu would find it difficult to completely destroy his body. The best way to kill Luo Shen is to start from the soul level.

However, Luo Shen's soul had undergone the cleansing of the Hunyuan Lingjing and Mingqing Kailing, as well as the tempering of the breakthrough God King. Although it had not yet reached the level of an Emperor, it was not far away. Even a God King who had conducted extremely deep research on the origin of the soul could not easily wipe it out.

As for the level of will, let alone that, this is Luo Shen's strong point.

Of course, the stronger you are, the stronger you are. Luo Shen also understands the disadvantages of the Nine Tribulations Body Realm, which is that it puts a heavy burden on the mind and will. He cannot use any sophisticated moves and can only overwhelm others with force, unless he is like Luo Shen now, using a clone with only one ten-thousandth of his reserve to fight the enemy, in which case he can use any sophisticated moves.

"Now, in the Origin Continent, the only ones who can completely kill you are me, the Thunder Ancestor, the one from the East Wilderness, and Emperor Qing."

Although Ancestor Yanfeng thought highly of Luo Shen before and revealed a lot of information directly to him, he did not elaborate on the top-level forces on the Origin Continent. But this time, after knowing how much progress Luo Shen had made, he began to introduce him to some of the situations on the Origin Continent.

After all, with Luo Shen's current strength, he is qualified to come into contact with the most powerful people.

"You don't have to worry about me, the Thunder Ancestor, and the one from the East Wasteland, because our real bodies are not in the Origin Continent. Even our clones will not act rashly."

Ancestor Yanfeng said with a smile: "As for Di Qing, for my sake, even if you provoke him, he will not kill you completely. At most, he will destroy one of your clones to save your face. However, Di Qing is a strong man who has surpassed the peak level of the God King. Generally, you will not provoke him. It is okay to provoke the God King of his lineage."

"But I hope you can provoke him."

Hearing this, Luo Shen couldn't help but glance at the Flame Wind Ancestor, as if asking, "Are you kidding me?"

The Flame Wind Ancestor seemed to see what Luo Shen was thinking and continued, "After all, when you provoke him, it means that your strength is almost the same as his. I naturally hope that you can have a chance to surpass him, or even surpass me."

"Why, you rose from obscurity, don't you even have the confidence to surpass me?"

Luo Shen replied: "Of course there are, but I have just broken through to the Divine King. I don't know how long it will take for me to be qualified to provoke a strong man at the level of the Emperor, let alone the Emperor Qing, whose strength has surpassed that of the Divine King. The teacher is too confident in me."

"Be more confident."

Ancestor Yanfeng shook his head and said, "Without self-confidence, there is no ambition. Without ambition, basically no one will strive for a higher level. Naturally, strength will stagnate, and the only way to start is to use other means such as the Chaotic Origin Bloodline."

"By the way, although your divine body is very strong now, you should still avoid the emperors and monarchs."

"Especially those monarchs of the Thunder Ancient Country who cultivate the Hunyuan Bloodline. They are contaminated by the Hunyuan Bloodline day and night, and have very bad tempers. It is not impossible for one of them to attack you directly if he is not happy with you. The same is true for those emperors of our Flame Wind Ancient Country."

Luo Shen responded: "Yes, teacher."

Luo Shen understood this very well. After all, the pollution of the Hunyuan bloodline was too strong. Even a monarch-level powerhouse might not be able to completely suppress it. More than a hundred centuries ago, the Thunder Ancient Country also had a half-out-of-control monarch-level powerhouse, the Blood Demon King, and there has been no news of him returning to normal until now.

As for the other monarchs and emperors, although they were not out of control, they had been polluted for a long time after all, and it was normal for them to have strange personalities and bad tempers.

"You have just become a Divine King, and the difficulties of the path of cultivation have just begun."

Ancestor Yanfeng sighed, "When you become a Divine King of the Second Stage, you will know that the further you advance, the more difficult it becomes. It is not difficult to fully comprehend the ten basic laws, but integrating them into one and forging the Law of Chaos has stumped countless practitioners."

"By the same token, it is not difficult to comprehend the branches of the Great Dao. It is even rare to comprehend six branches in one go."

“But if you want to perfectly integrate two branches, three branches, or even six branches into one, and comprehend the complete origin path, it is extremely difficult. On this origin continent, the only ones who have truly comprehended a complete path are Emperor Qing, the Lord of Ten Thousand Realms, and that peak realm beast.”

“Although the other emperors and monarchs all possessed the combat power of the peak of the God King, they all relied on external forces and the power of the Hunyuan bloodline.”

However, although the Lord of All Realms and the peak beast have both realized the complete origin of the great way, the only one who has truly surpassed the peak level of the God King is Di Qing. The gap between the two of them and Di Qing is still very obvious.

At least in the eyes of the Yanfeng ancestor, Di Qing and them, as well as the Donghuang ancestor, are on the same level.

The Lord of All Realms and the peak beast belong to another level.

"Although you haven't grown to this level yet, I will still briefly introduce to you the path that ordinary practitioners take to reach the peak of the Divine King."

“There are usually three paths.”

It can be seen that the Ancestor of Yanfeng really cares about Luo Shen. He explains everything to Luo Shen one by one, and Luo Shen listens very carefully.

"The first path is the path that normal practitioners take, to comprehend a complete path of origin!"

Ancestor Yanfeng said: "This road is the most difficult. In this reincarnation era, only Emperor Qing and the Lord of the Ten Thousand Realms have made it to this step. Although the peak beast has also made it to this step, it is the darling of the Supreme Rules and does not count."

“The second is Emperor Chu, Thunder Lord and other emperors and monarchs, who rely on powerful inheritance, at the peak of the third level of the Divine King, comprehend the ‘Divine King Peak Life Body Secret Method’, use the secret method as the foundation, and assist with the extremely precious Hunyuan materials, to force their own life level to enter the peak level of the Divine King.”

"Life transforms, and nature's every move has infinite power."

"This is also the path chosen by the vast majority of emperors. In addition to Di Qing, there are at least seven emperors in the Yanfeng Ancient Country who have taken this path."

This is why most of the emperors owe a lot of resources to the clan, because they need to rely on a lot of precious Hunyuan materials to impact a higher level of life, so as to have a higher level of combat effectiveness. For example, Luo Shen can have a God King level of life at the Chaos Lord level, firstly because of the smelting method, and secondly with the help of the life energy in the inheritance space.

The Flame Wind Ancestor did not know Luo Shen's thoughts and continued to introduce the third path. "The third path is also the worst choice."

"That is to use the power of the Hunyuan bloodline, tap into the potential of the Hunyuan bloodline, and transform your own life form to the ultimate realm of the Divine King. This is a relatively easy path, with a very high threshold and great consequences. If you succeed, you can have the combat power of the Emperor level, and you may lose control at any time. If you fail, you will be contaminated by the Hunyuan bloodline and completely out of control."

Just like scratching a lottery ticket, some will directly scratch out "Thank you for your patronage", while others will first scratch out "Congratulations" and then "Make a fortune".

After all, unless you have the strong willpower to suppress the Hunyuan bloodline forever, it will constantly erode and pollute you, and sooner or later you will be completely infected and out of control, becoming one of the many out-of-control powerful people.

However, these three paths can indeed enable the practitioner's life essence to reach the peak level of the God King.

This also made Luo Shen realize how precious the treasure land left by Yuan on the Origin Continent is. Judging from the Nine Tribulations Body Realm that Luo Shen had obtained, this was an inheritance that could directly reach the peak level of the God King. In the ancient country of Yanfeng, there were only a handful of secret techniques of this level.

Moreover, apart from the royal descendants of the ancient country of Yanfeng, other ordinary guests have no way of getting in touch with them.

It is no wonder that on the Continent of Origin, apart from the two ancient countries, there are few other emperor-level strongmen. In fact, none of these three paths is so simple.

Let’s just talk about the strong people like Di Chu who follow the path of Hunyuan bloodline.

First of all, there must be a record of the inheritance of the secrets of life forms at the peak level of the God King, and one must also comprehend the secrets of this level at the third level of the God King realm. Secondly, one must use the extremely precious supply of Hunyuan material resources, and be able to resist the will pollution of the Hunyuan bloodline before one can practice it.

Even if it is a strong man of the third level of the Yanfeng Ancestral Royal Family, not all strong people can achieve it.

For example, the Flame Sky Divine King, he borrowed a lot of resources from the Flame Wind Royal Family, but he was unable to withstand the infection of the Hunyuan bloodline. Now he is in a semi-out-of-control state and has not been able to completely become a strong man at the level of an emperor.

“Normally speaking, of the thirteen emperors of my Yanfeng royal family, except for Emperor Qing and Emperor Mie, the other emperors should not be as good as the Lord of the Ten Thousand Realms and that peak realm beast in realizing the complete origin.”

The Flame Wind Ancestor smiled and said, “But cultivators not only have their cultivation, but also powerful secret treasures. By using secret treasures and corresponding secret methods to fight the enemy, they can naturally reach this level of combat power, and be on par with the Lord of the Ten Thousand Realms and the peak realm beasts.”

In fact, the combat effectiveness of the ancient country of Yanfeng is far from that.

After all, each of the thirteen emperors has his own abilities. For example, one is good at controlling the world, one is good at formations, and one is good at soul and will attacks. If these different emperors join forces, on the Origin Continent, I am afraid that only those strong people who surpass the peak of the God King can match them.

This is the main reason why the two royal families occupy most of the resources on the Origin Continent.

Overwhelming strength!

"The monarchs of the Ancient Thunder Nation are also quite terrifying."

The expression of the Flame Wind Ancestor changed slightly, as if he was thinking of some not-so-good scenes, but fortunately, Luo Shen's attention had been attracted by his words and he did not pay attention to this change. He continued: "The Thunder Ancestor himself took the path of the Hunyuan bloodline, so the God Kings and Monarchs of the Thunder Ancient Country all took this path."

"Because of this, the strength they can exert is even more formidable and terrifying than the emperors of our Yanfeng Ancient Country who cultivate the Hunyuan bloodline."

After all, they all cultivated the Hunyuan bloodline, and perhaps in the battle, they would be eroded by the will of the other party's Hunyuan bloodline. The other party had long been accustomed to the erosion of will and would not be affected, while the strong men who were fighting against them were encountering it for the first time, and their strength would be somewhat discounted.

"Besides that, there are a large number of God Kings."

The Flame Wind Ancestor looked at Luo Shen and said seriously: "Don't mistakenly think that our two ancient countries can cover the sky with one hand just because the Flame Wind Ancient Country and the Thunder Ancient Country are powerful. You must know that on the Origin Continent, other creatures really occupy the majority. The number of those God Kings of the second and third realms is far greater than the number of God Kings in our Flame Wind Ancient Country!"

Taking the Samsara Building as an example, there are quite a few beings above the second level of God King, and there are even three beings at the third level of God King!
Among them is the Queen of Fengdu whose strength is comparable to that of the Emperor.

“Among them, there are also many people with extraordinary talents and amazing gifts. Perhaps their life essences have not been transcended, and they cannot compare to the strong men at the level of Emperors, but they practice multiple great ways and have cultivated special inheritances. With many powerful secret methods, they still have combat power comparable to that of Emperors.”

Luo Shen thought of Emperor Guixu and the emperor-level fighter who had appeared in the Shadow Heaven Realm. All of these showed that the waters of the Origin Continent were very deep.

"Although I founded the Flame Wind Royal Family, I still have something to say."

"The Flame Wind Royal Family and the Thunder Royal Family occupy the vast majority of resources on the Origin Continent. Other idle God Kings want to practice, want to become stronger, and want to achieve the peak level of God King. Naturally, they will conflict with us and compete for resources!"

"In fact, not only them, but even the royal family is competing with each other."

"There are also those hidden alien races, the Wanfa Building, the Time and Space Temple, and the Two Realms Palace and other alien forces. The purpose of their stirring up trouble is to fight for resources. The resources of the Origin Continent itself and the resources left by Yuan are all the objects of their competition!"

Ancestor Yanfeng said: "It is precisely because you are my direct disciple that I specifically remind you to be cautious in everything you do and not be taken advantage of by others without knowing it."

"I have no objection to joining other forces!"

"I also agree to compete with the emperors of the ancient country of Yanfeng for resources!"

"The only thing I want to tell you is that your main goal is to become stronger. Everything else is irrelevant. You can even forget what I say. As long as you can become stronger, stronger than me, that's enough!"

Luo Shen was stunned and looked at the Ancestor of Yanfeng, as if he was meeting him for the first time.

This was also the first time that the Yanfeng Ancestor had such a heart-to-heart talk with him.

Although he didn't understand why the Yanfeng Ancestor would treat him so well, even giving up the interests of his own ethnic group.

But there is only one thing that Luo Shen is sure of, that is, no matter what, he must work hard to practice and become stronger, so strong that no one in the entire Origin Continent, or even in the entire Hunyuan Space, can match him. By then, no matter what happens, he will have enough strength to solve it!
"Yes, teacher!" Luo Shen responded in a very loud voice! (End of this chapter)
