Devouring the Stars: Rising from the Snow Eagle System

Chapter 225 The Purple Wood God King Has a Request

After the reincarnation of the Emperor of Guixu, he often said to the members of the Samsara Pavilion: "Even if the outcome of a battle is bad, it's still just death, right? But at least I can get over it in my heart."

Even the God-King cannot fully simulate all the possible scenarios; no matter what choice you make, there will always be regrets…

In fact, if Emperor Guixu had chosen to fight directly, his master, Emperor Xuan, was in seclusion at the time and only learned about it later, so he definitely wouldn't have been able to come.

Faced with three emperors, his wife, children, and clan remains a dead end. Even after reincarnation, he will regret not having compromised!

As long as he cannot accept the outcome, Emperor Guixu will always feel that another choice would be different, so he launched a crazy revenge against the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom.

Once his Dao heart was damaged, he could no longer reach the ultimate level, and the meaning of his life was to seek revenge.

“Emperor Guixu, I know about your affairs. Although I have no connection with the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, I will take care of anything that happens after you join my Cangyuan Kingdom.”

Zhou Lin reached out and patted the broad shoulder of the Emperor of Guixu. It wasn't that he was suddenly bursting with sympathy; as a cultivator of karma, the last thing he wanted to do was to interfere in the karma of others without permission.

However, the two ancient kingdoms are different. Sooner or later, Zhou Lin will have a fundamental conflict of interest with them. Territory is secondary; what is important is the treasure lands of the Origin Continent.

Why should the two ancient kingdoms directly monopolize the Infinite Space, Dream Realm, and Heavenly Pillar Realm? Once they have more and more God-Kings under their command and can contend with the Ancestor, there will inevitably be conflict.

It could even be earlier.

Not to mention that he's aiming to spread his faith and earn rewards.

Therefore, it is necessary to expand the territory in large quantities, and expanding the territory means war, and perhaps in the later stages, they will even seize the territory of the ancient kingdom.

Perhaps the monarchs will tacitly allow him to build a first-class power. In any case, when the Thunder Ancestor awakens, he will most likely be unable to do anything to Zhou Lin.

However, if Zhou Lin develops in the direction of the ancient kingdom, then the Thunder Ancestor and the Flame Wind Ancestor may awaken ahead of schedule, and at that time...

Conflicts are inevitable in the future.

"God King Mengchuan, are you willing to accept us?" God King Wuxin asked again, "We have a conflict with the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, which will definitely involve you."

After reincarnation, the cause and effect were severed, and neither the Emperor of Guixu nor he wanted to have any further contact with the people and things from the past, except for their trust in the members of the Reincarnation Tower team.

It was because the Earth God King was in the middle that they were willing to come.

If Zhou Lin agrees now, but then chooses to betray his teammates at the crucial moment, he will incur a huge karmic debt with the entire Samsara Building.

"My word is my bond." Zhou Lin said resolutely, as faint divine patterns of law appeared between heaven and earth, and a supreme aura descended.

He is a Dao Enlightenment cultivator, but not an Ultimate Realm life form, nor is he one of those Primordial Bloodline cultivators. If he goes against his own Dao Heart, he will have no chance to improve.

“Very well, then we will join your Cangyuan Kingdom!” Emperor Guixu replied just as firmly, “When it comes to expanding our territory, Guixu will not shirk its duty.”

Zhou Lin said solemnly, "But there are two things. I am not ready to have a direct conflict with the ancient country. The ancestors of both countries should not have awakened yet."

According to his understanding of the plot, the Thunder Ancestor and the Flame Wind Ancestor are in seclusion.

By the time they awaken, Luo Feng will have become the ruler of the Milky Way Kingdom and will be sparring with Di Qing. Even if an unexpected situation occurs and they awaken early, Zhou Lin should still be able to reach the second level of the God King realm.

"Then?" Emperor Guixu asked in confusion. He didn't believe that Zhou Lin would dare to confront the monarch head-on, but now he was going to act like a coward.

"Wait until I reach the second level of the God King realm."

Zhou Lin laughed and said, "My strength is still not strong enough. Once I reach the second level of God King, it will be meaningless for the ancestors of both countries to come and kill me."

……

After recruiting a group of God Kings, Zhou Lin's core membership in the Cangyuan Kingdom was essentially complete. However, he did not expect that even the Earth God King would choose to join.

The nine clones each possess combat power at the threshold of the ultimate realm. Together, they are enough to rival emperors and monarchs. Adding the Earth God King, they have already surpassed other first-class forces.

Of course, the addition of the God King alone is not enough. The Emperor Guixu and his companions are complete loners, with no Chaos Realm followers under their command.

Fortunately, it was the Earth God King and the Cloud Heaven God King who brought many Chaos Realm cultivators with them. They were all from the Law lineage, and some from the Bloodline lineage volunteered to join them.

The newly established kingdom will have a large number of Chaos Realms vacant, as well as a large number of Chaos Realms that were originally from the Dust Kingdom, but they left ahead of time because of Zhou Lin.

Now that the situation has stabilized, they naturally want to reclaim their territory.

Zhou Lin had several clones receiving Chaos Realm cultivators. He only selected those who cultivated the Law lineage, and rejected all those who cultivated the Bloodline path, especially those who cultivated the Primordial Bloodline.

Cultivating through the bloodline of a god-king is completely different from cultivating through the bloodline of Hunyuan.

When Dongbo Xueying was reincarnated into the Realm Heart Continent, he also cultivated because he possessed the Void Bloodline of the Lord of Nanyun Kingdom, aiming to reach the Chaos Realm.

The Hunyuan bloodline, while requiring low comprehension, demands high willpower, and those fools are still ignorant of their own limitations.

Anyone, human or ghost, dares to cultivate the Hunyuan bloodline.

Inside the branch hall, nearly a hundred Chaos Realm cultivators were gathered. Zhou Lin, sitting at the highest point, coldly stated, "My Cangyuan Kingdom has no need for Chaos Realm cultivators with Hunyuan bloodlines."

"May I ask God King Meng Chuan, what's wrong with us cultivating the Primordial Bloodline?" A Chaos Realm cultivator covered in white fur questioned, "How many Chaos Realm cultivators and God Kings on the Origin Continent are not of the Primordial Bloodline?"

The Enlightenment Stream is too precious. Even the two ancient kingdoms require that the Chaos Realm guest elders be at least of the Law lineage. If they rely entirely on the Enlightenment Stream's Chaos Realm to be stationed in Chaos State.

No first-rate nation can achieve this, and those in the Chaos Realm haven't mastered any branches of the Great Dao, their unique skills are quite ordinary, and the difference between the Bloodline Stream and the Enlightenment Stream at this stage isn't that great.

Naturally, many eternal true gods will cultivate the Hunyuan bloodline. It is already a great fortune to be able to reach the Chaos Realm, so why should they care about any particular school?

"Do you have a big problem with that? In my opinion, you're not even as good as an Eternal True God of the Law lineage." Zhou Lin reprimanded him without any politeness. "I don't even respect God-Kings who purely cultivate the Chaos Origin Bloodline, so what are you anyway!"

He made no attempt to hide his contempt for the Hunyuan bloodline.

To be precise, it's a form of contempt for such low-level beings who can't even reach the level of a Dao-enlightening God-King yet still want to cultivate the Hunyuan bloodline; their potential is simply laughable.

The Guixu Emperor and the others also cultivated the Hunyuan bloodline. Zhou Lin understood that this was the environment of the Origin Continent, so he would still relax his standards for God Kings.

Enlightenment combined with the Hunyuan bloodline is acceptable, but it cannot be a pure Hunyuan bloodline.

His words carried a hint of anger, startling all the Chaos Realm cultivators present, who immediately prostrated themselves on the ground, especially the white-haired man who spoke.

"King Mengchuan has nothing to do with us."

"We dare not offend the God-King, and we hope that the God-King will not implicate us."

One by one, the Chaos Realm cultivators exclaimed, their hearts filled with hatred for Bai Mao. Who was this person before them? His gaze alone could cause Lord Lan Duo to completely lose control, and he was able to fight Lord Lei Xiao head-on to a standstill.

Such a ruthless and powerful figure cannot be questioned. "God King Meng Chuan, I was reckless. Please forgive me." The white-haired man knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing. His intelligence was also affected by his bloodline, resulting in his brainlessness.

Questioning a God-King with ultimate-level combat power? Zhou Lin could probably kill all the Chaos Realm cultivators in the hall with just a single glance.

His mental will is now close to the early stage of God Emperor. Combined with his soul techniques, he will be the nightmare of all monarchs except for the Thunder Bloodline Flow.

Too lazy to bother with this Chaos Realm cultivator with the Hunyuan Bloodline, Zhou Lin waved his hand, signaling that they could leave.

"We are deeply grateful to the God King Meng Chuan for his magnanimity."

Several bloodline-flowing Chaos Realm cultivators collapsed to the ground, smiling as if they had survived a calamity, before respectfully bowing and leaving the main hall.

A total of thirty-six individuals from the Law lineage at the Chaos Realm were absorbed into the Cangyuan Kingdom. In Zhou Lin's eyes, these were all potential God-Kings.

There are two more in the Chaos Realm who have transcended, comparable to the level of the Mountain Hermit in his previous life. It is not easy for the Enlightenment Stream to reach this level, and their temperament is at least quite good.

Dao Heart, something so important in the Snow Eagle Era, has become a rare bonus in the Origin Continent.

"King of Cangyuan." A towering figure appeared outside the palace at some unknown time, his aura incredibly powerful: "Would you like me to come in and have a seat?"

The visitor was none other than the Lord of the Myriad Realms. He used the title "Lord of Cangyuan" in the details, clearly indicating that he was visiting from the perspective of a relationship between nations.

From a personal perspective, the title would be changed to Mengchuan God King.

"It is an honor for my Cangyuan Kingdom that the Lord of the Myriad Realms has come to visit."

Zhou Lin greeted him with a smile. No matter how treacherous the Lord of Myriad Realms was, he was still the ultimate realm of the Enlightenment Stream, and his power would undergo a qualitative change as long as he had the right treasures.

For example, with a suitable supreme treasure, the ruler of all realms could instantly become an invincible being, able to fight the Flame Wind Ancestor head-on on the Origin Continent.

"Please come inside to talk." Zhou Lin was very polite, as he might make some deals with the Lord of the Myriad Realms in the future.

The King of All Realms wore a brown robe and appeared to be extremely kind and honest, but the aura he exuded was infinitely profound and contained supreme divine power.

The two chatted and laughed as they walked into the depths of the palace. The Earth God King, the Emperor of Guixu, and others all bowed politely, for this was the only ultimate realm in the Origin Continent in modern times, apart from the ancient countries.

The Beast King is not included; it cannot escape its fate of destruction and will ultimately die.

"The Cangyuan Kingdom now occupies 195 Chaos Provinces." The Lord of the Myriad Realms said as if joking, "That's a small number among first-rate powers. Doesn't it seem a bit unworthy of your status?"

With 729 Chaos Provinces, one can rival the territories of two ancient kingdoms. First-class forces typically have three to five hundred Chaos Provinces, or, like the progenitor of the Eastern Extreme Domain, occupy a small corner of the land.

There is no doubt that Zhou Lin will continue to expand his territory.

"Rest assured, Lord of the Myriad Realms, you have bestowed upon me all those chaotic states bordering our two countries. I certainly will not take advantage of you." Zhou Lin understood what the other party meant.

If Zhou Lin still wants some territory, the Lord of the Myriad Realms will tolerate it.

After all, what he has shown most is his potential; his current strength is insignificant. The moves of the Lord of Myriad Realms are far more profound than those of monarchs.

"What are you saying, Lord Cangyuan? We hit it off immediately. Even if I gave you more Chaos Provinces, it wouldn't be a problem," the Lord of Myriad Realms said with a smile.

However, no matter how Zhou Lin looked at it, he felt that his smile was very hypocritical.

No wonder he broke up with the owner of the Time-Space Lone Boat. No one knows what he was thinking, but one thing is certain: he posed no threat to Zhou Lin.

"He lacks courage and is too concerned with petty gains." This was Zhou Lin's assessment of the Lord of the Myriad Realms, who had reached the Ultimate Realm early on but dared not venture into the outside world.

After finishing their business, the King of Myriad Realms also presented a congratulatory gift, which turned out to be a weapon of the ultimate God King realm. Zhou Lin declined it repeatedly, saying that he valued cause and effect and that if it were a matter of friendship, he should never give a gift.

The Lord of Myriad Realms did not press the matter further. He knew that a powerful figure like Zhou Lin would not easily accept a gift, as accepting it would imply a karmic connection.

After the Lord of the Myriad Realms left, the Purple Wood God King soon arrived with the Realm Beast Ayu. They were also politely invited into the palace by Zhou Lin.

“The encroachment on the territory of Tianmu Kingdom was a last resort.” Zhou Lin’s attitude toward the Purple Wood God King was somewhat different: “You should be able to understand, Lord Purple Wood Kingdom.”

He actually took the initiative to explain.

The Beast Ayu stayed to the side, eating and drinking heartily. He didn't even glance at the other God-Kings, only greeting Zhou Lin as a basic courtesy.

The Lord of Myriad Realms and the Purple Wood God King are fundamentally different. The Purple Wood God King is not at the ultimate level of the Enlightenment Path and will inevitably leave the Origin Continent in the future.

If the Beast King cannot reach the God Emperor level, then he will be inseparable from the Origin Continent in the future and will be destroyed along with it. The ultimate realm of the Enlightenment Stream is also very difficult to die in the Origin Continent.

So when they're really pushed to the limit, they'll even offend an ancient kingdom.

Zhou Lin was unsure of what the Purple Wood God King was thinking, or whether he cared about the territory under his command. No one could say for sure, so his attitude was even more amiable.

"I didn't expect the King of Cangyuan to be so easy to talk to." The Beast Ayu picked up his wine cup and took a big gulp, while transmitting his voice, "Brother, I think you might as well tell him directly."

After deliberating for a while, the Purple Wood God King suddenly spoke up: "God King Meng Chuan, I have something to ask of you."

The fact that he addressed Meng Chuan as God-King was clearly for a private matter. Zhou Lin immediately gave a look to the God-Kings under his command, and they all made excuses to leave.

"Purple Wood God King, please speak frankly." Zhou Lin was very curious. What could he possibly need from him? His World Beast, A Yu, was a genuine Ultimate Realm cultivator with the power of the Enlightenment Stream.

Zhou Lin's Annihilation technique can only be used once.

"I would like to invite you and Ayu to a treasure trove, where there is an item that we desperately need."

The Purple Wood God King said with utmost sincerity, "If you can help, I would even offer up all the territory of my Heavenly Wood Kingdom. We can also discuss other God King ultimate realm weapons."

"Oh? Tell me in detail, and I'll think about whether it's feasible."

Zhou Lin was quite surprised. What kind of item could make the Purple Wood God King so willing to risk everything?

He did know a little about the Purple Wood God King.

In the heart of the Purple Wood God King, the most important people are his family and his former clan. After avenging the blood feud, they never left the Heavenly Wood Kingdom even once in the long years since.

Therefore, he longs to break free from the cage, take control of the Source World, and then resurrect his family.

The Purple Wood God King, within a single cycle of reincarnation, couldn't even reach the ultimate realm of the Enlightenment Stream, and it was only in an environment like the Origin Continent that he was able to directly confront the Great Dao of Origin.

Hoping he can escape his cage is not as good as hoping for the Beast Ayu.
