Devouring the Stars: Rising from the Snow Eagle System

Chapter 237 Battle Against the Two Primordial Ancestors

Even a simple sentence ignited the Thunder Ancestor's killing intent. He and the Flame Wind Ancestor had dominated the Origin Continent for so long, how could they tolerate a change in order?

"The progenitor of the Eastern Extremity Domain is, after all, only an early-stage God Emperor. He can't change much, nor does he want to." After a moment's thought, the Thunder Progenitor said, "With him here, if an ancient kingdom is established, the future order will definitely be different."

Zhou Lin truly knows how to benefit his subordinates, and the internal environment of Cangyuan Kingdom is very different from that of other countries.

He recruited a large number of followers of the Enlightenment School, completely eliminating the cultivation of the Hunyuan bloodline below the level of God King.

In the Chaos Realm, as long as the laws of the Eternal True God are aligned, and they fundamentally reject the Primordial Bloodline, a virtuous cycle will eventually form.

The ancestors naturally understood that enlightenment was the fundamental path.

The Hunyuan bloodline is simply the path for those without the talent to comprehend the Dao, but they don't care about that. What they want is for their emperors to grow up quickly so they can be used as tools for treasure hunting.

"If we're really going to make a move, it has to be a fatal blow."

The figure of the Thunder Ancestor has quietly arrived in the territory of Cangyuan Kingdom. As long as the Flame Wind Ancestor gives a word, the two will make a move instantly!
To stifle geniuses and continue to rule the Origin Continent.

……

Inside the Cangyuan Imperial Palace, the Earth God King, the Flame Wind Ancestor, and Zhou Lin sat facing each other in a triangle, discussing the transaction in a harmonious manner.

"Lord of Cangyuan Kingdom, this cycle of reincarnation is fine, but I don't want the world-class Hunyuan Remnants to still be priced like this in future cycles of reincarnation."

Yanfeng Ancestor maintained his smile and spoke sincerely with Zhou Lin and the other person: "Three low-level Chaos Origin corpses are acceptable."

It was as if he genuinely intended to buy it; at least, there was no outward indication of it.

"Do you, Ancestor Yanfeng, have to concern yourself with the treatment of the God-Kings under my command?" Zhou Lin raised an eyebrow and asked, "Isn't that a bit too domineering?"

"No, it's just that I don't want anyone to disrupt the order of the Origin Continent." Ancestor Yanfeng sighed softly, "This is the order that is in our best interest."

He and Thunder Ancestor were merely two people with half-primordial strength and bloodline, yet they both fared quite well in the Dark Holy Realm, relying on resources within the Origin World.

A vague unease arose in Zhou Lin's heart. He was favored by the supreme rules, and his control over his destiny would be stronger.

"That old guy probably has ill intentions. Be careful," Zhou Lin whispered to the Earth God King. He was about to give him a few more words of advice...

An endless sea of ​​fire suddenly appeared, and another figure bathed in lightning also rushed in. It was none other than the Thunder Ancestor. The palace formation could not stop them in the slightest.

Fire and lightning accompanied the indiscriminate destruction of everything. The entire main hall of the palace exploded in an instant, and the aftershocks were about to sweep out and wipe out all living beings!
If the aftershocks are allowed to spread unchecked, countless lives within billions of miles will likely be wiped out.

"It's the Embers of Cause and Effect!!!" The Earth God King's eyes widened in fury. He immediately activated three top-tier secret treasures and unleashed the power of the earth to resist this attack.

These two great ancestors actually chose to launch a sneak attack.

"The Progenitor of Flame Wind!!"

Zhou Lin roared, manipulating numerous formations within the palace to strengthen himself and suppress the spread of the aftershocks, otherwise the entire city would be wiped out!
Fortunately, the Earth God King stood in front and absorbed most of the power of the two progenitors. The remaining aftershocks were suppressed by Zhou Lin, and only some servants died, thus averting a disaster.

At the same time, clones from various places, including the Heavenly Pillar Realm, traversed the void to arrive.

Nine of the strongest combat avatars have gathered!
Thousands of clones were also using teleportation within the city to relocate hundreds of millions of living beings; otherwise, no one could stop the aftershocks from spreading further.

"Not good!" Ancestor Yanfeng's expression changed: "How could the Earth God King be so strong?!"

His endless flames were already the upper limit of the power of the Origin Continent.

Logically, it should have instantly destroyed the Earth God King's defenses and killed the two of them at the same time, but the thick earth actually resisted a lot of it.

The Earth God King did not rush to attack, but instead focused on defensive measures. He cultivated the Great Dao of the Earth's Origin, a path that inherently embodies virtue and is adept at defense.

Ten thousand layers of land reappeared, incredibly resilient, resisting Zhou Lin.

"Break!" The Thunder Ancestor roared with murderous intent, and endless lightning ravaged the thick earth. The Earth God King's face turned ashen; the power of this lightning was too strong, and he couldn't withstand it for long.

He was slightly weaker than the Great Venerable Fu Yi. Although they were on the same level, he still felt immense pressure facing the Thunder Ancestor, whose power was invincible and whose mysteries far surpassed Fu Yi's.

"Shatter, die!" Ancestor Yanfeng casually slapped down with his palm, instantly destroying the endless earth along the path of cause and effect: "Thunder, you hold off the Earth God King, I'm going to kill the Cangyuan Kingdom Lord."

Once the arrow is released, there's no turning back. Since Zhou Lin didn't choose to reincarnate, they still have hope of annihilating him.

As the Flame Ancestor took a step forward, a vast and mighty flame followed. He was the strongest being on this Origin Continent. In terms of power and mystery, the Thunder Ancestor was far inferior.

"The Sea of ​​the World".

Zhou Lin's nine clones attacked simultaneously. The main battle clone wielded a miniature ocean and used a top-tier secret treasure to unleash its strongest killing move, bringing forth an endless world ocean.

The World Sea contains countless points of light, somewhat similar to the structure of the Origin of the Domain Sea. Each point of light is a prototype of the world, making it convenient for users to construct deadly moves.

The world's oceans, stretching for billions of kilometers, are now a world of deadly attacks, with waves churning and flames locked in a stalemate.

"How is this possible?! How could he possibly possess the same power as the Earth God King?!" Ancestor Yanfeng was stunned. Could a first-level God King really achieve such a feat?

I've never heard of such a thing before.

Zhou Lin naturally couldn't reach this level with his divine body, but this was his lair, a top-tier secret treasure, the combined attack of his nine clones, plus the power provided by the formation...

The reward materials that the system previously dropped were mostly for building formations.

Even if his cultivation level was low and he couldn't set up many formations, he was still at the level of Grand Venerable Fu Yi in his hometown. How could Ancestor Yan Feng kill him so easily?

"Even if he has such strength, we must kill him!" The Thunder Ancestor was anxious and created a total of nine thunder clones, vaguely constructing a large array.

The previous attack was a sneak attack, so both of them naturally used rapid assassination techniques. Now, their truly terrifying moves are about to begin, far more subtle and sophisticated than before.

The ten Thunder Ancestors constructed a great array, firmly binding the Earth God King within it. The endless earth began to crumble, and he could only protect himself.

This is his strongest formation, known as the Thunder Ten Absolute Formation, which is incredibly profound and its power reaches the upper limit of the Origin Continent.

Even the most invincible beings would be severely suppressed by this move, including the Xia Emperor and the Undying Underworld Emperor.

Without a power limit, the aura naturally emanating from the Thunder Ancestor would be enough to annihilate an invincible being; fortunately, it was protected by the rules of the Source World.

The Earth God King was completely suppressed in the Thunder World.

The Progenitor of Flame Wind also unleashed his strongest move, with billions of causal embers burning fiercely, forming a world of flames under the guidance of a secret treasure. "True World - Annihilation!" Zhou Lin raised his hand and once again unleashed his strongest combined attack, with the help of the World Sea and the great array, its power leaping even further.

Each wave is a vast universe, and the endless waves burst apart in an instant, in order to counter the deadly move of the Flame Wind Ancestor.

boom!
A massive explosion rang out, and the entire Chaos Continent, except for the core area of ​​the royal palace, was reduced to ashes, leaving the vast land scorched earth.

Although Zhou Lin's clone helped to relocate the creatures, many wilderness tribes were still destroyed.

The people suffered terribly, and the sun and moon lost their light.

“I can’t kill him.” Ancestor Yanfeng sighed. He could suppress Zhou Lin, but this suppression was extremely limited, just like how the Lord of Motian Kingdom only had the upper hand when facing the Great Venerable Fuyi.

Mysterious? Even if the Lord of Chaos comes to other source worlds, his power is limited to the Chaos Realm, and relying on mystery, he can only rival the second level of the Cosmic God.

Moreover, that's a compensation based on realm. In reality, even if a normal second-level Cosmic God were attacked by Luo Feng, he wouldn't be harmed in the slightest; at most, he would be beaten into a sorry state.

No matter how profound the enlightenment of a late-stage God Emperor is, their power remains unchanged.

The Flame Wind Ancestor originally thought that by relying on the profound power of his realm to attack Zhou Lin, he could try to kill all his clones.

Since this battle was not a friendly spar, the other emperors and those at the Ultimate Realm were able to observe the specific process.

"How could the gap between us be so exaggerated?" Lord Lei Xiao was stunned. If Zhou Lin had this kind of combat power when he sparred with him, he would definitely have been defeated within a few moves.

Most emperors would be crushed when facing Fu Yi.

Zhou Lin relied on the formation to compensate for his weakness, which allowed him to possess a level of invincibility in his hometown, enough to save his life against any invincible being.

"Thunder World?" Zhou Lin's gaze fell on the great formation used by the Thunder Ancestor, which was a formation crafted by a half-primordial cultivator.

This world of thunder is empowered by ten clones.

"Let's join forces and see if we can force him to reincarnate." Thunder Ancestor was unwilling to accept this outcome. How could his battle with Flame Wind Ancestor end like this?

"Let's give it one last try. If we can't kill him, we'll have to give up." After thinking for a moment, the Flame Wind Ancestor replied, "Thunder, you have to understand that if we can't kill him completely, then saving face is meaningless."

Given their status, why should they care about what other god-kings and emperors think? In any case, when the cycle of reincarnation ends, there will be very few left.

The Flame Wind Ancestor's meaning was very clear: kill if you can, and if you can't kill, try to negotiate peace.

He no longer held much hope of killing Zhou Lin, because the combined power of the two would also be suppressed, unlike the suppression in the primordial universe.

Moreover, the further one progresses in cultivation, the less meaningful it becomes to join forces or launch coordinated attacks; individual strength is far more important than group strength.

For example, Xia Huang's single clone is very powerful, and can inflict damage on the Eternal Night Ancestor and force him to flee in a short time.

However, even when his multiple clones joined forces, their strength was only so-so.

The Thunder Ancestor and the Flame Wind Ancestor joined forces in the hope of dismantling all of Zhou Lin's defenses and then attempting to incinerate all his clones with the Causal Flame.

boom!
The Thunderous Ten Absolute Formation expanded, encompassing Zhou Lin as well. Subsequently, the Earth God King was driven out by the formation. This is the benefit brought by one's cultivation level.

If I want to fight you, I will; if I don't want to fight you, there's nothing you can do about it.

This Thunderous Ten Absolute Formation operates according to its own rules, capable of suppressing any other force, and the world itself is like a maze, leaving Zhou Lin completely dazzled within it.

"Unfortunately, it can't stop my connection with the great formation." Zhou Lin wasn't afraid yet. If his connection with the defensive formation were severed, he would be reincarnated immediately.

Zhou Lin was completely integrated with the great formation in his lair.

Attacking the great formation is the same as attacking him; you can't kill him, nor can you dismantle those formations.

"For a first-level God King to be able to fight against an Ancestor and survive, the Flame Wind Ancestor and the Thunder Ancestor are in big trouble."

Even Di Qing was drawn to the commotion. He stood in his mansion gazing into the distance and thought, "This God King Meng Chuan will likely rise rapidly after he goes out into the outside world. At the very least, he will reach the level of a dual-path half-chaotic origin."

In the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, Di Qing had heard of powerful beings with dual-path and half-chaotic origins.

But that's a legendary figure, not even considered weak in the Dark Holy Realm. He's currently just an early-stage Enlightenment God Emperor.

Countless strands of lightning formed a perfectly functioning world array.

Zhou Lin gazed intently at this vast world. He had been trying to create a prototype of the source world while studying "Eternal World," but he had never succeeded.

He built upon the foundation of the world's branches, and the rules he added were essentially based on the path he was good at, somewhat akin to creating a universe.

But that is a different concept from the creation of the nascent world.

"The composition of this Thunder World?! Could it be...?" Zhou Lin felt a wisp of doubt in his heart being resolved, and he immediately began to create the prototype of the Origin World using the Void Realm.

The Holy Realm, the Chaotic Land, and countless universes quickly took shape. Then, Zhou Lin used the four paths he was good at—Cause and Effect, World, Void, and Void Realm—as the core to form the rules for operation.

As the rules operate, lower-level laws naturally emerge, such as the source of spacetime, the source of water and fire, the source of the five elements, and the source of birth and death...

"So that's how it is. The core element of Yuan's inheritance is actually to comprehend how the rules operate." Zhou Lin suddenly realized, and all his confusion was resolved.

Yuan itself is the operating principle of the primordial chaos.

Therefore, he has many inheritances, but the essence is to understand the operation of the rules. What is the foundation of the "Hunyuan Formation Diagram"? It is still the operation of the rules!
And what is the world? It operates according to the same rules.

At this moment, Yuan is unaware of the origin system, and the origin world, in addition to needing rules to operate, also needs many paths to combine into the origin.

Zhou Lin's combination is a combination of rules operating, which is completely unrelated to the origin. They are two completely different concepts. For example, the combination of time and space becomes the operation of spacetime rules.

Spacetime is the foundation of the world. Adding more mysteries can create more rules for operation, giving rise to lower levels, or even the same level of the Great Dao.

The origin requires at least nine ultimate paths to combine.

Therefore, Yuan had seen many source worlds, but he could only try to create a prototype of a source world, and he failed time and time again to create a real source world.

The legacy he left in the infinite space consists almost entirely of paths in various directions, but its true purpose is to guide cultivators to comprehend the workings of the rules.
