Di Jun, Origin/Foundation Upgrade

The Primordial Great Earth was full of life and abundant spiritual energy.

However, after a Calamity, Chaos Primordial Qi was almost nonexistent on the Primordial Great Earth.

Innate Spiritual Qi, though, was still dense.

"Roar!"

A giant beast was being besieged by hundreds of Human Race warriors.

It was an An Beast, resembling a deer with a nose as long as a camel's, hence also called a camel deer.

In the current Primordial Era, the An Beast was considered 'docile,' but it still posed a significant threat to the Human Race.

Often, warriors from a small Human Race tribe would struggle to hunt an adult An Beast.

This An Beast was dozens of feet tall, its eyes cold, exuding ferocity.

The Human Race warriors began their assault.

Among them, some humans displayed totem markings, clearly Totem Warriors.

Each Totem Warrior possessed robust Blood Essence.

There were also cultivators, wielding Magic Power and possessing Minor Divine Abilities.

The humans' actions also ignited the An Beast's ferocity.

A battle ensued.

In the eyes of these Human Race warriors, the An Beast was food.

Hunger had always been something the Human Race had to face.

From the emergence of the Human Race to the present, countless people had starved to death.

To fill their bellies, humans hunted birds and beasts, caught large fish and shrimp, and gathered wild fruits.

Many wild fruits and the flesh of strange beasts were poisonous, leading to the deaths of no small number of humans.

Others died from injuries or illness.

Survival was a heavy word for the Human Race at this time.

However, after the Calamity, the Human Race's situation had slightly improved.

And with the popularization of the Totem Method, the Human Race had produced one Totem after another.

Totem Warriors had become the mainstream of the Human Race's power system.

Every Totem Warrior held a very high status among the Human Race.

Of course, this didn't mean there were no internal conflicts within the Human Race, but unity was still paramount, as the continuation of their race was the priority.

Among these hundreds of warriors, there were only seventy-eight Totem Warriors, and they weren't all from the same tribe.

Fifty-three Totem Warriors worshipped the Heavenly Spirit, and twenty-five worshipped the Earth Spirit.

"Heavenly Spirit, oh Heavenly Spirit!"

"Earth Spirit, oh Earth Spirit!"

"Ancestors above, we pray for your protection."

The Blood Essence of the Totem Warriors surged like smoke signals.

Amidst the roars, the An Beast engaged these Human Race warriors.

With dozens of Totem Warriors at the core and hundreds of people surrounding it, the An Beast quickly found itself at a disadvantage.

However, a few of the humans had also suffered casualties.

If they could successfully hunt this An Beast, losing a dozen or so people would be acceptable.

Blood Food was hard to come by; it was difficult to obtain without paying a price.

Hunting an adult An Beast was certainly not easy, but if successful, its flesh and blood could potentially turn more humans into Totem Warriors.

This was no longer just about filling their bellies.

After fighting for a long time, the An Beast was heavily wounded and could barely hold on.

Victory was within reach, and the Human Race warriors roared, their morale soaring.

However, just as the An Beast was about to fall, a shadow enveloped them, and fierce winds swept down from the sky.

The closer Totem Warriors could barely stand firm, their eyes unable to open.

A giant monstrous bird swooped down, its sharp talons seizing the An Beast.

Under the immense strength of the monstrous bird's talons, the An Beast breathed its last.

Immediately after, the monstrous bird flapped its wings and flew away.

The Human Race warriors were all indignant. They had fought hard for a long time, only to have their spoils stolen. It would be frustrating for anyone.

However, this was reality.

Ultimately, it was because the Human Race was too weak. If the Human Race were powerful enough, the An Beast wouldn't have been stolen, and the monstrous bird would have been hunted by humans instead.

These Human Race warriors all had a thirst for power in their eyes.

The Totem Method was a shortcut for humans to become stronger.

The Power of Faith from the Human Race could strengthen the Totem, while a strong Totem allowed Totem Warriors to have a higher ceiling. Strong Totem Warriors could then provide a large amount of Power of Faith, forming a virtuous cycle.

As for the limits of Totems, the Human Race at least couldn't touch them in a short time.

Perhaps by the time the Human Race touched the limits of Totems, the existing Totem Method would have been improved by the wise ones of the Human Race, thus raising the limits of Totems.

Of course, the Totem Method was only applicable to the current Human Race.

The future of the Human Race couldn't rely solely on the Totem Method.

Lu Yang also observed the changes in the Human Race on the Primordial Great Earth.

After imparting the Totem Method to the Human Race, the changes in them were considerable, and their strength grew stronger and stronger.

He withdrew his gaze, and Lu Yang's attention returned to the Golden Crow Divine Egg.

That's right, he had created another Golden Crow.

This time, it was a Golden Crow with an Innate Origin/Foundation of the Golden Immortal level.

It was still incubating within the egg.

"My second clone will be named Di Jun," Lu Yang mused.

With a 'crack,' the Divine Egg split open.

A Golden Crow hatched, magnificent and divine.

Great Destiny also appeared on Di Jun.

This was also a portion of the Sun Star's Destiny.

The Sun, Moon, and Stars inherently possessed Destiny. When the Sun Star became a 'living being,' its Destiny was immense.

For Lu Yang, Di Jun was his clone, so it was fine for him to share some Destiny.

Since he could give some Destiny to Di Jun, he could naturally take it back.

Furthermore, if Di Jun were to unfortunately perish, the Destiny on him would return to the Sun Star.

In the sunlight, Lu Ya instantly teleported from the Primordial Great Earth to the Sun Star.

The Magic Power consumed was trivial for Lu Yang.

Bringing Lu Ya back was also an opportunity to upgrade Lu Ya's Origin/Foundation.

This was something he had planned.

Having created a Golden Crow with an Innate Origin/Foundation of the Golden Immortal level, he would also upgrade Lu Ya's Origin/Foundation.

According to the plan, the third clone would be Donghuang Taiyi, who would have an Innate Origin/Foundation of the Grand Unity level. At that time, he would upgrade the Origins/Foundations of both Lu Ya and Di Jun.

Once he could create Golden Crows with an Innate Origin/Foundation of the Grand Unity level, Lu Yang would begin mass production.

After letting Di Jun cultivate on his own, Lu Yang busied himself with upgrading Lu Yang's Origin/Foundation.

In the largest space within the Sun Star, the colossal Chaos Bell appeared.

This was the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell, containing forty-nine Innate restrictions.

When Pangu created the heavens and earth, he perished from exhaustion. His giant axe seemed to have sensed something and split into three, transforming into three supreme treasures.

The axe blade became the Pangu Banner, the axe back became the Taiji Diagram, and the axe handle became this Chaos Bell.

This treasure could suppress all heavens, annihilate eternity, and shatter space-time.

Although Lu Yang had not completely refined the Chaos Bell, he could already unleash some of its power.

The Sun Star could already isolate the Heavenly Dao's aura. With the addition of the Chaos Bell, it was even more foolproof.

Under this double concealment, Lu Ya revealed his true form.

The giant Golden Crow spread its wings, majestic and imposing, with a cluster of Great Sun Golden Flame pulsing between its brows.

The Golden Crow's entire body was burning with Sun True Fire.

His Magic Power, accumulated over a million Calamities, was vast like a sea of stars, seemingly capable of suppressing the Cosmos.

At the same time, the Sun Star separated another wisp of its origin.

As this wisp of Sun origin merged into the Golden Crow's true body, Profound and Mysterious Dao Charm flowed.

A mysterious Dao Fruit also manifested.

The Dao that Lu Yang comprehended was no longer ordinary. If he were in a Great Thousand World, he could overturn the heavens and earth, expand the four directions, shatter the eight poles, reach an unreachable height, and be unfathomably deep.

He could envelop heaven and earth, bestow the formless, flow like a spring, and fill up gradually. He could be turbid yet gradually clear.

He could span the four dimensions and contain Yin and Yang, encompass the universe and illuminate the three lights.

By shielding the perception of his clones, Lu Yang could not feel any pain.

The upgrade of the Origin/Foundation was inevitably painful, a torment comparable to having one's Divine Soul crushed.

It wasn't that the pain was unbearable, but rather that there was no need to endure it.

Time in this space was equivalent to the outside world.

In the blink of an eye, several Primordial Days passed.

Lu Ya's Origin/Foundation upgrade was also complete.

Upgrading an Acquired Origin/Foundation was relatively easy, but improving an Innate Origin/Foundation was exceedingly difficult.

And for a Chaos Origin/Foundation to advance, the difficulty was practically defying the heavens.

Although Lu Ya, as a Golden Crow, only possessed a Mystic Immortal level Origin/Foundation, it was still classified as Innate.

Therefore, upgrading Lu Ya's Origin/Foundation was no simple feat.

To elevate an Innate Origin/Foundation from the Mystic Immortal level to the Golden Immortal level in just a few days was enough to leave anyone utterly astonished if they heard about it.

Along with the upgrade of his Origin/Foundation, Lu Ya's Cultivation also significantly improved.

In fact, even if his Cultivation remained unchanged, Lu Ya's strength would have increased due to the enhancement of his Origin/Foundation.

Furthermore, Lu Ya's cultivation efficiency had also greatly accelerated.
