The Chosen Path
In the Treasure Land 'Infinite Space', Luo Feng transformed into a streak of light, flying at a speed hundreds of times faster than when he first Infinite Space. And this was just his normal travel speed.
"This Treasure Land has been completely occupied by areas with even a slightly larger Native Creature. If I want to carve out my own territory, I need to go to the most remote and desolate areas." Luo Feng chose a direction and continued on his way.
In areas teeming with Native Creature, there might be hundreds of Native Creature in a single region, enough for multiple god-kings to join forces and conquer.
In remote and desolate areas, there might only be one or two Native Creature in a large region. Because there are so few, they are only suitable for solo conquest!
The greatest danger of occupying a territory alone is... encountering invasion from other powerful entities!
Luo Feng also cultivated in seclusion for a hundred years under the protection of Emperor Lord Ming before venturing out on his own.
Call!
"Luo He? This is the territory of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation Royal Clan. Please leave."
"This is the territory of the Thunder Ancient Nation Royal Clan!"
"Leave immediately."
Along the way, Luo Feng also tried to avoid places where powerful forces were entrenched. Whenever he came into contact with some powerful consciousness, he would be warned and expelled! He never encountered another place as benevolent as Emperor Lord Ming, who was willing to give him a territory.
After a long flight, we finally arrived at our destination.
"Hundred Mist Lake!"
Luo Feng looked at the vast, endless lake in front of him, with mist drifting around it.
"Hundred Mist Lake is extremely vast. In the earliest days, it was home to hundreds of Native Creature. The monarch of the Thunder Ancient Nation later monopolized the area, causing the number of Native Creature to decrease continuously. Now, there are probably only a handful of creatures left in the entire lake."
This place has been occupied by various forces. Because there are too few creatures and the area is too vast, the major powers no longer care about it. Only Lone Cultivator like Luo Feng would take notice.
"Begin a full-scale exploration of Hundred Mist Lake!"
"Life After Life Undying! Divide!"
With a single thought, Luo Feng instantly created nine clones, which flew in all directions, carefully searching for Native Creature amidst the dense fog.
Within the Infinite Space, the nineteen fundamental paths are sealed! To unleash truly powerful techniques, one must forge a new path oneself.
Over the past hundred years, Luo Feng has also been attempting to open up the Life-Death Great Path.
This cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds! The speed was much faster than comprehending the Life Origin Great Path and the Destruction Origin Great Path.
There are several factors contributing to this rapid progress.
Firstly, regarding the paths of life and destruction, Luo Feng had already reached the peak of the Chaos Realm. With sufficiently profound accumulation, he then merged them into the 'Life-Death Great Path,' making his comprehension of the Life-Death Great Path naturally smooth.
Secondly, deep down, Luo Feng believed that "birth and death are one," which was the path that Luo Feng's mind believed in.
When Luo Feng became Eternal True God, he comprehended the Source of Creation and Destruction.
The first Chaos Realm technique that Luo Feng comprehended was a technique that combined birth and death—the sword technique 'Heart Refinement'.
It's only because the Supreme Rules don't include the 'Great Dao of Birth and Death' that Luo Feng temporarily set it aside and focused on comprehending the other two. After all, the Life Origin Great Path and the Destruction Origin Great Path both exist and can be studied and observed.
In Luo Feng's heart, these two fundamental paths were both foundational and resources! Ultimately, they were both for the purpose of opening up the 'Life-Death Great Path' for him.
"The Life-Death Great Path is indeed much stronger."
Because there was no clear fundamental Dao to refer to, Luo Feng simply followed his own heart and began to integrate some of his insights into the two Daos of life and destruction, and naturally he also comprehended many techniques.
"I came to the Origin Continent about 160 epochs ago! These 100 epochs are the period of my deepest accumulation." Luo Feng was very clear about his progress.
The Life-Death Great Path is a fusion and evolution of the two paths of life and destruction, containing many advantages of both.
However, its shortcomings are obvious: it lacks a clear Great Dao, leaving Luo Feng unaware of what the Great Dao Branch are like. Currently, Luo Feng has comprehended multiple God-King level Secret Method of the 'Life-Death Great Path,' surpassing even the Great Dao of Life and Death in terms of accumulated knowledge! Yet, he has never fully mastered a single branch of the complete 'Life-Death Great Path.'
Luo Feng could clearly see the six branches of life and the six branches of destruction, and had a clear direction for them.
Luo Feng had a feeling that if he deliberately tried, he could become a God King within a century.
Luo Feng was very patient. He followed the guidance of the creator of the "World Lifeform" tradition, focusing on cultivating his comprehension and accumulating knowledge until he naturally broke through.
Do not deliberately pursue breakthroughs.
"The encounter with Infinite Space allowed me to comprehend the Life-Death Great Path earlier."
"Clearly, the Life-Death Great Path... is indeed more suitable for me than life and destruction."
Luo Feng had already guessed this in his heart, after all, he believed that 'birth and death are one,' and that the absence of either one would make the whole thing incomplete.
This century of cultivation also shows that in the cultivation of the Life-Death Great Path, those who start later often arrive first!
He has no clear Secret Method, nor any profound understanding of the Great Dao! Yet, his strength in the Dao of Life-Death Great Path surpasses that of the other two.
"This also proves one thing: the path that suits you best is the fastest way to go," Luo Feng thought. God-Kings generally focus on one fundamental path! Very few cultivate two at the same time.
Because every Xing Zhe has their own spiritual understanding.
Some perceptions lead to the denial of certain fundamental truths, and even aversion to certain paths. Forcing oneself to comprehend them is naturally extremely inefficient.
Like the Sitting Mountain Guest, he has his own path to follow. He was never tempted by the idea of controlling the Original Universe or confronting the Life Origin Great Path, nor did he ever attempt it.
"The investigation is complete."
Using his clone technique, Luo Feng finally finished surveying Hundred Mist Lake. "Currently, two God-Kings occupy parts of Hundred Mist Lake. Beyond their occupied areas... there are three Native Creature, all quite far away."
"Of these three Native Creature, two are relatively ordinary, similar to those I've fought before. The other one is extremely powerful, withstanding my Lie Yuan Art without sustaining any serious injuries."
Of these three Native Creature, one is strong and the other two are weak.
Luo Feng was still quite satisfied! He hoped to have a more powerful Mind Creature to hone his skills.
"That's the three of them."
Although the three Native Creature were quite far apart, Luo Feng still decided to take them all. "I will use my clone technique to occupy the areas of these three Native Creature separately."
Luo Feng's true form and two clones were separated from then on, each occupying only one Native Creature.

The Yan Feng Ancient Nation, Feng Zhang City, is also the ancestral home of the royal Zhang Clan, where generations of descendants have lived and multiplied.
"Haha, Brother Luo Sa, please."
"It is also a destiny between my Zhang Clan and the Great Sage Luo He that Yun Ge can become dao companion with Mo Yu Qing Yan." In a huge hall of the Zhang Clan, the core leaders of the Zhang Clan were holding a grand banquet to entertain Moluo Sa, Mo Yu Qing Yan and the others.
Inside the hall.
Both Chaos Master of the Zhang Clan appeared, and they sat in the main seat with Moluo Sa. The three Chaos Realm experts chatted and laughed, appearing very harmonious.
"Qing Yan is my master's disciple, and also my disciple." Moluo Sa laughed heartily. "If Yun Ge and Qing Yan become dao companion in the future, they will also be considered half of my disciples."
Mo Yu Qing Yan and Zhang Yun Ge were both seated at the lower end of the table, and the two juniors listened obediently.
"It seems the two sides had a very pleasant conversation." Mo Yu Qing Yan was quite pleased to see this.
This was his first time visiting the Zhang Clan, and he was afraid they wouldn't approve!
However, the Zhang Clan welcomed it very much!
Although Zhang Yun Ge is from the main branch of the Zhang Clan, there are countless royal descendants. She is just one of the Eternal True God and is not particularly noticeable among the tens of thousands of Eternal True God in the royal clan.
"I'm not highly regarded within the clan," Zhang Yun Ge transmitted telepathically. "The fact that both of the clan's Chaos Master have shown up this time is actually because of your identity."
The appearance of someone in the Chaos Realm is already quite remarkable.
As for the 'God King Feng Zhang', who holds the highest position in the Zhang Clan, he is ultimately a God-King. There is no need for him to interfere in the matter of two juniors at the level of Eternal True God becoming dao companion.
Even if Great Sage Luo He becomes a God King and truly becomes a Hegemon-level, God King Feng Zhang doesn't need to fawn over him too much. God King Feng Zhang has a background to be able to establish himself in Yan Feng Ancient Nation.
"Qing Yan, from now on we're family. Come, have a drink." Zhang Yun Ge's father, standing to the side, was also very enthusiastic. As an ordinary Eternal True God, his status within the clan was far inferior to those Eternal True God of the Principle lineage. But today, he was quite the star! Even the two Chaos Realm ancestors were very friendly to him.
Mo Yu Qing Yan showed no arrogance whatsoever.
He has self-awareness!
His Second Master devoted himself to guiding him, enabling him to become Void True God through the Principle lineage. Later, with the help of his master and Second Master, he followed the bloodline cultivation system and became Eternal True God.
He truly has no potential in cultivation; his current status is solely due to being the only disciple of his master and Second Master. What is there to be proud of?
Seeing this, Zhang Yun Ge smiled.
She decided that Mo Yu Qing Yan was her dao companion. When she went to Phase Realm City to handle the royal family's business, she met Mo Yu Qing Yan for the first time. Mo Yu Qing Yan was being flattered by everyone and had a very high status in Phase Realm City.
As they spent more time together, she discovered that Mo Yu Qing Yan was very simple and honest, and she gradually fell in love with him.
She cultivated herself to become Eternal True God. She had never dao companion in the past, which shows her mindset. Without a suitable match, she preferred to cultivate alone forever.
The same goes for Mo Yu Qing Yan! Both of them chose their dao companion only after reaching the Eternal True God.
In the Treasure Land 'Infinite Space', his disciple was about to get married, but Luo Feng, as the master, was focused solely on cultivation. He was currently sitting cross-legged on an island in a lake, performing the Great Destruction Heart Refining Method to eradicate the pollution of his own mind.
"The stronger the Mind Creature, the stronger the pollution."
Luo Feng could feel the impact on him; even when he tried to comprehend the Great Dao, the pollution of his mind would interfere time and time again.
"Rumble~~~"
Suddenly, a consciousness touched Luo Feng's spreading consciousness.
"This is my territory, get out of here immediately," Luo Feng conveyed the message.
"Your territory? I've killed this Native Creature ancestor dozens of times! It's always been my territory." The Mind Will that had also reached the God King Second Realm, a huge figure in yellow robes, stood in the distance, looking at the island with a sneer, "So it's the Great Sage Luo He! You, a Chaos Realm Transcendence, dare to compete with me for territory? If you don't want to die, get lost!"
Luo Feng looked at him, his eyes turning cold. "Then let me see how much skill you, God King First Realm, have in this Infinite Space."
