Seven Lords (End of Volume Nine)
The Initial Land, the summit of the high mountains of Primal Chaos Island.
"What's troubling you most right now is how to break free from this Cage?" Yuan sat down, and with a wave of his hand, fine wine appeared on the table. There was a pot of wine in front of him, and another pot in front of Luo Feng.
Cluck cluck cluck~~~
Yuan casually drank a few cups, then glanced at Luo Feng and said, "Let's drink together and chat."
"Yes." Luo Feng then picked up the wine pot, took a sip, and said, "Please enlighten me Senior Yuan, on how I can break free from this Cage."
"You are Xing Zhe of the Fusion Path, with exceptional talent. For you, a High-tier Primal Chaos Bloodline that is compatible with you can easily comprehend more than 70% of it," Yuan said.
Luo Feng nodded.
"You have two paths to take next."
"First, become World-Level Primal Chaos Lifeform, and then strive to cultivate to become Primal Chaos Lord."
"Secondly, one can directly comprehend the Dao at the Hunyuan level, Yi Li Po Fa, and directly become Primal Chaos Lord." As the first lord in the entire Cultivator Faction, Yuan has been exploring the path of cultivation, so he is naturally very familiar with these things.
Luo Feng listened carefully, for this concerned his future.
"There are two ways to become World-Level Primal Chaos Lifeform. One is to become World-tier Primal Chaos Bloodline World-Level Primal Chaos Lifeform Bloodline. After breaking through, your thinking speed will be billions of times faster than it is now, and your comprehension will also undergo a transformation. With such comprehension and thinking speed, you will have a glimmer of hope to comprehend the 'Dao at the Chaos Origin Level'."
Yuan shook his head gently, "The only drawback is that the Primal Chaos Bloodline will give you an extra 'bloodline will' within your body, and your bloodline insights will also pollute your memories."
"The flaws of this path are the pollution of will and the pollution of blood."
"Of the seven lords of this era, only one, 'Naigu,' has followed this path." Yuan looked at Luo Feng. "What he comprehended was the 'Primal Chaos Bloodline Path,' completely mastering the essence of the Bloodline Dao, and even integrating the bloodlines of multiple Primal Chaos Progenitor into himself."
Luo Feng was secretly alarmed upon hearing this.
To integrate the bloodlines of multiple Primal Chaos Progenitor into one's own body? To grasp the essence of the Bloodline Dao? How powerful would such an existence be?
No wonder it is said that every lord is a being who wields the highest level of power in the Infinite Primal Chaos Space!
Seven lords have managed to fight against the entire Innate Primal Chaos Lifeform Faction to this point!
"The second way to become World-tier Primal Chaos is to first refine your home Source World and become Source World master. This path is free from will and Memory Pollution. It can be considered the smoothest path. Five out of the seven lords have taken this path. I am also on this path."
Luo Feng's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Of the seven lords, five followed this path?
"How do I refine my hometown's Source World?" Luo Feng asked.
"The methods have already spread throughout all the world groups," Yuan said. "First, one must master more than half of the fundamental Dao of the Source World, reaching at least the God King Second Realm. Second, one must spread faith and thoroughly influence all living beings through faith. The path of faith... is extremely difficult."
Yuan looked at Luo Feng and said, "Your talent and potential in illusion magic are quite average, and you are not suitable for the path of faith."
"You are not good at too many things, and the path of refining your hometown's Source World is not suitable for you."
Yuan was very certain.
Luo Feng nodded in agreement.
Luo Feng saw no hope in comprehending at least five paths that resonated with the origin of the Source World.
Illusion? Luo Feng probably wouldn't even rank in the top thousand in the Dark Holy World, how could he be qualified to explore the path of faith?
"Finally, it's about Yi Li Po Fa!" Yuan looked at Luo Feng, "As a half- Primal Chaos Lifeform, he directly comprehended the Dao at the primordial level! He mastered the highest level of power in the entire Infinite Primal Chaos Space and became a lord."
"Before Lord 'Xingmang,' none of us believed that a half- Primal Chaos Lifeform could comprehend the Dao at the primordial level."
"But Lord Xingmang did it."
Yuan looked at Luo Feng and said, "Xingmang, the 'Primal Chaos Space-Time Dao' that he comprehended! As Half Primal Chaos cultivator, he became a Lord by Yi Li Po Fa. After becoming a Lord, his thinking speed and comprehension are even higher! This has further enhanced his strength."
"In terms of strength and the threat to the Innate Primal Chaos Lifeform Faction, Xingmang is number one among the seven lords," Yuan said. "I think his contributions to the Cultivator Faction have already surpassed mine."
Luo Feng had heard of him before.
Yuan, as the first lord, has been kind to countless Xing Zhe and his contribution to the entire Cultivator Faction should be the greatest.
But Yuan believes that Xingmang made a greater contribution at this moment.
Luo Feng felt... it should be Yuan Qianxu! But it also proved the strength of 'Xingmang'!
"You'll understand in the future," Yuan said without adding anything more.
"Refining the Source World is not suitable for you." Yuan looked at Luo Feng. "Therefore, you have two paths before you. One is to rely on World-tier Primal Chaos Bloodline. The other Yi Li Po Fa. The path of Yi Li Po Fa ... is extremely difficult!"
"You should know that even among the Lords of the Source World, only a handful have comprehended the Dao at the Hunyuan level." Yuan looked at Luo Feng. "Most are still stuck at the Lord of the Source World level."
Luo Feng nodded.
He understands.
Most of the Lords of the Source World could not comprehend this.
How could a half- Primal Chaos Lifeform comprehend the Dao at the primordial level? That's truly inconceivable!
"If you want to use World-tier Primal Chaos Bloodline, I advise you to carefully study it first, and only refine it after you have understood more than 70% of it," Yuan said. "That way, you will have a better grasp of the bloodline, and the Memory Pollution will be less."
Luo Feng nodded. "I understand."
"I've said everything I needed to say. You can choose which path to take." Yuan pointed to a small building in the distance. "I've also prepared a gift for you! Study it carefully."
"Yes," Luo Feng replied.
Yuan nodded and then vanished into thin air.
He is indeed very busy!
If it were an ordinary, Invincible Tier Xing Zhe, Yuan wouldn't have said so much.
"Did you prepare a gift?"
Luo Feng immediately walked towards the small building in the distance, where only a silver bracelet was placed.
Luo Feng touched the silver bracelet and refined it in an instant.
"Buzz".
After refining the silver bracelet, Luo Feng immediately realized its function.
The silver bracelet contains storage space and holds some resources.
It also records its own 'Reward Points'.
"Ordinary resources in the Initial Land are free, but valuable resources need to be exchanged for Reward Points." Luo Feng sensed it briefly and was somewhat surprised, "Infinite Space Reward Points can also be used here?"
The Initial Land possesses almost all the treasures of the Cultivator Faction! The treasure vault is so vast that it is many times larger than the Infinite Space Treasure Trove.
Even High-Tier Primal Chaos Lifeform and World-tier Primal Chaos exchange their resources here.
"My Reward Points are a little over 10.21 million?" Luo Feng looked at his account.
The 200,000 Reward Points are a reward for breaking free from the Cage of Mind Will.
The 10,000+ points are what's left over from the Infinite Space.
The 10 million Reward Points are the Reward Points received by a Half Primal Chaos Fusion Path Xing Zhe. The Cultivator Faction assumes that this level is capable of achieving 'World-tier Primal Chaos', so the Reward Points granted are naturally high.
"This bracelet also functions as a communication device!"
"Do you have contact information for 87,342,513 high-level Hunyuan, 237 World-tier Primal Chaos, and 7 lords?"
Luo Feng only understood after becoming familiar with some of the messaging functions.
The Infinite Primal Chaos Space is incredibly vast and boundless. Even a lord would take a long time to travel from one place to another! Therefore, it is very difficult to transmit messages in such a distant and vast area.
The bracelet's communication function is because those Cultivator Faction have broken Cage of the mortal realm all have avatars in the 'Initial Land,' making it easy for them to contact each other.
"Seven lords."
Luo Feng learned the names of the seven lords from their contact information.
Of course, the Xing Zhe of the Initial Land dare not contact the seven lords directly without special reasons! The seven lords are currently dealing with a war that will determine the fate of Xing Zhe, and no one will easily disturb them.
"My cave cave abode has so many uses." After refining the bracelet, Luo Feng quickly understood the purpose of the cave abode.
This cave abode was specially prepared for generations of Xing Zhe of the "Half Primal Chaos Fusion Path".
"A semi- Primal Chaos Lifeform has a very slow thought process. Even to comprehend a 'World-tier Primal Chaos Bloodline,' it generally takes a very long time. So, the cave abode dwelling's secret chamber can accelerate time?" Luo Feng sensed it briefly.
For a semi- Primal Chaos Lifeform, long-term time acceleration is relatively low-cost. The 'time acceleration array' in this cultivation chamber was personally set up by the Starlight Lord and can maintain a 'million-fold' time acceleration.
One century has passed outside, but a million century has passed inside!
"The entire cave abode has an unlimited supply of energy, which constantly nourishes my body and soul. My mental processing speed is now about a thousand times faster than when I was in the Dark Holy World, and my soul feels no discomfort." Luo Feng realized the benefits of this place.
"Does my cave abode have the authority to view the complete picture of any Primal Chaos Bloodline possessed by Cultivator Faction? And also to view any kind of material?"
"This is more powerful than the Life-Death Eye and the Book of Wisdom combined."
Luo Feng immediately understood why some exchangers would return the Book of Wisdom! Returning it would return Reward Points! Moreover, the ability of the Initial Land to observe all things far surpasses that of the Life-Death Eye and the Book of Wisdom.
"This cave abode is priceless," Luo Feng said excitedly.
Assistance in spiritual practice, time acceleration, observation of all things, trials of life and death... and these are all free.
Luo Feng can exchange some valuable resources using Reward Points.
The Cultivator Faction provides a huge supply of resources to every 'Half Primal Chaos Fusion Path Xing Zhe'. At least on this path, even the lowest- World-tier Primal Chaos has produced a lord.
"Of the seven lords, one followed the Bloodline Path, one Yi Li Po Fa, and the other five were all masters of the Source World who then became lords."
"There are only two paths before me."
"Lord 'Naigu' was able to succeed because he followed the 'Primal Chaos Bloodline Path,' and his bloodline was the resource for his cultivation. None of the others who followed the Bloodline Path could become lords."
Luo Feng pondered, vaguely sensing that there was a significant problem with the path of bloodline. He knew that almost all Xing Zhe of the Fusion Path throughout history had followed this path, yet only Naigu had succeeded.
"One way or another."
"Let's try to Yi Li Po Fa first!"
Luo Feng's eyes held a yearning. Anyone confident in themselves would first attempt to comprehend the 'Chunyuan level Dao'. Only after utter despair would one choose the Bloodline Path.

I'll take a day off tomorrow to prepare, and I'll start updating episode 10, 'Yi Li Po Fa,' the day after tomorrow.
To prevent everyone from running out of books to read, Tomato also recommends two good books I've been reading recently: "Sword Out of Great Tang" and "The Eunuch".
