Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Optimizing the Five Hearts Towards the Sky

Chapter 689 is just one more thing missing

Within infinite space.

Chen Yuan's figure appeared, and he immediately began communicating with the palm imprint.

[Trial Participant: Chen Yuan from the Origin Continent]

[Remaining reward points: 863]

These are the reward points he had left after redeeming the Hunyuan Bloodline last time. As you can see, they're almost gone. He can only afford one or two cheap services like "Facing the Primordial Dao" at most.

However, Chen Yuan was not worried. With a slight thought, he took out the secret treasure, the "Book of a Hundred Generations".

"return."

The next second, the silver-white book in his hand vanished instantly, and his reward points skyrocketed.

[Remaining reward points: 1000863]

"Now I have money." Chen Yuan nodded in satisfaction, then opened the treasure vault and searched for the keyword "Origin Great Dao".

In an instant, the previously cluttered list of options became neat and orderly, with service options directly addressing the core of the business from top to bottom.

Chen Yuan looked at the list, comparing each item with the innate origins he possessed, searching for the unfamiliar Great Dao of Origin.

"Hmm—I've got it."

He fixed his gaze on a certain spot on the list: "The Profound Yin Dao is a variant of the Taiyin Dao, and it is indeed very rare. No wonder it has not been found in so many source worlds."

In fact, the Dao of most source worlds is highly homogeneous.

It could even be said that more than half of the source worlds are composed of only a few hundred types of Great Daos, which are the most mainstream Great Daos, such as thunder, fire, time and space, etc.

As for the remaining two thousand or so Great Daos, they are actually all variations of these mainstream Great Daos. For example, the Void Great Dao is a variation of the Space Great Dao, and can also be called a Space-type Great Dao.

For example, the 99 soul-related Great Daos that Chen Yuan found are actually all variations of the Great Dao of Souls.

This is why it took him three hundred days to find more than two thousand Great Daos, far exceeding the initial estimate of two hundred days.

It's true that the later the stage, the harder it is to discover new origins, even after searching through both mainstream and non-mainstream paths.

Chen Yuan was quite certain that these last 15 Great Daos must be extremely remote, and it would take a lot of time and energy to find them all, and it wouldn't be surprising if he couldn't find them all.

Because the Yuan realm only has more than 400 world clusters, with about 1.2 to 1.3 million source worlds, which only accounts for one-seventh of the cultivator camp.

It's possible that some worlds possessing special Daos are not within the territory of Yuan. In fact, to put it in the worst-case scenario, it's possible that the entire cultivator camp doesn't even have such a territory.

"I hope it's not what I think."

Chen Yuan took a deep breath and did not rush to exchange for the "Mysterious Yin Great Dao". Instead, he continued to read on, wanting to find the 15 Great Daos he was missing first.

After a while.

"Of the 15 missing Great Daos, only 14 were eventually gathered." A hint of helplessness flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes. He hadn't expected the result to be exactly the same as his worst prediction.

One more is missing!

"There's nothing we can do about it; after all, the innate Great Dao in the treasure vault is incomplete to begin with."

Chen Yuan counted, and the total number of the original Dao in the treasure vault was only more than 2,800, with more than 100 Dao not being available for exchange.

These rare, "non-exchangeable" origins, apart from various soul-related Great Daos, include dozens of other Great Daos that he deciphered from the Hunyuan Bloodline, and each of them is extremely obscure and niche.

"Yuan Jianli's treasure vault would not have deliberately omitted some origins. Most likely, these origins are not within his territory, and may not even be within the territory of the cultivator camp."

Chen Yuan smiled helplessly: "It seems that my exchange for these Chaos Origin Bloodlines back then turned out to be a lucky accident, as I managed to gather most of the Origin Great Dao from outside the realm."

"Unfortunately—there's still one missing."

He shook his head, guessing that this last kind of origin could either be found outside the human race's territory or could only be obtained from the remaining Chaos Origin Bloodline.

The latter is the most likely, because the Star Lord has almost gathered the bloodlines of all naturally born chaotic beings, and there is a 99% probability that the last innate source he is looking for is in these bloodlines.

However, this search process will be extremely complicated because there are simply too many naturally occurring, undifferentiated life forms.

According to records, there are more than 30,000 kinds of world-class Chaos Origin beings alone. If we include higher Chaos Origin life forms, there are more than 5 million bloodlines.

How long would it take to analyze all these bloodlines?

"Even if the bloodlines of higher-level Chaos Origin life forms are easier to analyze, it would still take me at least a million days to analyze all of them."

Chen Yuan shook his head helplessly. One million days?

Even if we can find it in advance, it would still take 500,000 days, even if we take the middle value.

This amount of time may not seem like much to other cultivators, but Chen Yuan has only been cultivating for a little over 1,700 days. How could he possibly waste so much time on a mere source?

"I can't just suppress my spiritual index because of some kind of origin," he said, shaking his head.

If he hadn't been forcibly suppressed in order to gather all the innate Dao before breaking free from the cage, his mental index would probably have exceeded five thousand long ago, instead of only three thousand.

"If left unchecked, my mental index will exceed 10,000 within one or two thousand days at most, reaching the advanced Hunyuan level."

"Hundreds of thousands of days? My mental index can at least reach the world-class level of Hunyuan, and there is even a sliver of hope that I can reach the level of Hunyuan Lord."

That is why Chen Yuan could not have wasted so much time on a single source.

He slowly exhaled: "There's no other way. We can only ask Elder Yuan. He's very knowledgeable and might be able to provide clues about this last kind of origin."

"But it seems that when the elder brother left last time, he didn't leave any contact information."

Chen Yuan looked helpless. Although Yuan had provided him with access to the Primordial Land, he lacked the means of contact for the various Hunyuan beings.

He understood that Yuan was doing this on purpose and was also aware of the other party's concerns. He was worried that he would come under the scrutiny of other lords, so he simply stopped contacting them. In any case, he would be able to break free of the cage soon enough.

Chen Yuan hadn't cared about this before, but now that he was in trouble and couldn't find anyone, he was starting to feel anxious.

"Never mind, there's no need to rush." ​​He shook his head slightly. "Although I don't have Yuan's contact information, there are definitely people who can contact him, such as the three administrators of the Yuan Desolate Ancient Realm."

Xuan Tianzun had said that Yuan had specifically instructed the three of them that with this relationship, he could get Xuan Tianzun to contact Yuan again and thus solve the problem.

Thinking of this, Chen Yuan was no longer in a hurry.

"Let's explore the remaining 200,000+ source worlds first, and also take those 14 kinds of origins into our possession."

"It's not too late to contact Elder Brother after we've finished these two things."

"Oh right, since there's only one more innate Great Dao missing, then I can confidently increase my Spirit Index. Anyway, the conventional Great Dao only accounts for a small portion of the index, so I can confidently cultivate it to 9999 points without any problems."

With this in mind, Chen Yuan arranged for his mental clone to continue searching for the origin in the source world, while his body in the infinite space opened the treasure vault.

[Facing the Profound Yin] The Great Dao of Origin, 450 reward points/time (each time lasts for one cycle, reward points will not be refunded if the event ends early).

]

[Are you sure you want to redeem?]

"Sure!"

The next second, a vast power descended upon the infinite space, bringing with it a chilling and dark aura.

Chen Yuan gazed at the Profound Yin Origin before him, activated his Primordial Eye, and began to analyze the aura of this origin.
