"I've already given you nearly 30% of the entire Chaos Universe to manage, how more can I help you?"

Hearing his master sigh, seemingly indicating a softening of his stance, Iyer eagerly said, "If Master could agree, please dispatch a large number of your subordinate Lord Master, Ultimate Emperor, and Source Walker Lord Master to help me..."

"Enough!" the Holy Lord suddenly snapped. "Iyer, you need to know your limits. Don't let yourself be blinded by passion."

Interrupted by his master, Iyer paused.

He originally had an agreement with his master.

Within his home Chaos Universe, the Master designated a region under his jurisdiction, and all the cultivators he taught were placed under his command.

These are the resources that Iyer relies on to conquer other Chaos Universe.

There are two exceptions --

One is the Ultimate Emperor.

The other is ' Source Walker Lord Master '.

Once a member of the clan comprehends the perfect Ultimate Dao and becomes the Ultimate Emperor, they have the potential to become the Ultimate Supreme in the future.

His master would immediately take away such a monstrous talent if it appeared.

Therefore, among the Sith Clan who conquered the Chaos Universe of cultivators, there was not a single Ultimate Emperor.

The ' Source Walker ' is Strange Lifeform similar to Chaos Source Beast, but in human form.

Every ' Source Walker ' is a darling of the Chaos Universe, whose physical Origin Power far surpasses that of their peers.

After becoming Lord Master, the ' Source Walker ' will have a stronger body and purer Origin Power, making them far stronger than ordinary Lord Master of the same race.

Even if the Source Walker Lord Master were in other Chaos Universe, he would be ostracized and unable to invoke the power of the Dao. However, with his stronger body and Origin Power, he would still have combat strength comparable to that of a Supreme cultivator.

In Iyer's view, if his master could send a group of Source Walker Lord Master, even just eight or ten, he would have succeeded long ago in the ancient war and become the Chaos Universe Controller.

"The loss of six ordinary Lord Master has already damaged the very essence of my universe. And you still want to take advantage of my children, wanting them to risk their lives for you?" The Holy Lord's face turned cold.

"They are dead, but I will be resurrected," Iyer said.

"Resurrection? Resurrecting a Source Walker Lord Master consumes at least ten times the source energy of an ordinary Lord Master! And that doesn't even include the source energy stolen. How can such a massive amount of power be replenished?" The Holy Lord was somewhat enraged.

The fact that the six ordinary Lord Master who just fell cannot return with their souls and true spirits has already weakened the Chaos Universe of the Sith Clan.

However, compared to the vast origin of the universe, the loss is not too great, and the Holy Lord can still tolerate it.

However, if it were the Source Walker Lord Master had fallen, or even seven or eight others, the price would be enormous.

After all, having one's soul and true spirit taken away is a loss to the origin of the universe, and resurrecting the Source Walker Lord Master would consume the origin of the universe again.

After suffering double losses, if the Sith Clan's Chaos Universe weakens to a certain extent, a second ruler will emerge in other Chaos Universe.

Perhaps the next target of invasion will be their own Sith Clan Chaos Universe.

The two Chaos Universe are not too far apart, and neither can do anything to the other.

However, if one side is significantly weaker, they may lose!

"Iyer, you know I will never allow my Chaos Universe to weaken to that extent." The Holy Lord's tone was icy. Even if the person in front of him was his most valued disciple, there was no room for negotiation when he was threatened.

"Master," Iyer suddenly looked up, gritting her teeth, "If Master is willing to help me, I am willing to offer half of the true spirit power of all living beings in the Cultivator Universe. Furthermore, I will go to the Endless Space to capture Lord Master- level Strange Lifeform and use their true spirit power to replenish Master's consumption."

"My master gave me a Source Walker Lord Master. Regardless of whether he perishes in the final battle, I will repay him with two Lord Master- level Strange Lifeform!" Iyer's eyes were resolute as he looked directly into the Holy Lord's eyes.

The Holy Lord remained silent.

Capturing Lord Master- level Strange Lifeform in Endless Space is no easy task.

Those wondrous places that are incredibly dangerous to cultivators are like home to the Strange Lifeform forms nurtured by the Endless Space.

Moreover, the Endless Space is boundless and the spacetime is chaotic.

Even as the Chaos Universe Controller, he wouldn't dare claim to know everything about the entire Endless Space.

Therefore, his true self will never leave his own Chaos Universe.

What's inside this small courtyard made of giant rocks is merely a manifestation of the Dharma Body.

Of course.

Even if it is just a Dharma Body, it carries the boundless pressure of the entire Chaos Universe. A single glance is enough to suppress and kill the vast majority of Strange Lifeform.

Therefore, no Strange Lifeform dared to approach his cave dwelling, or even the vicinity of the Sith Clan's Chaos Universe.

If Iyer wants to capture it, he can only search in more distant and dangerous areas.

This was extremely dangerous for Iyer, who was only at the Ultimate Supreme Realm.

Moreover, Iyer promised to sacrifice half of the beings in the Cultivator Universe to him...

The Holy Lord's expression softened, and his tone returned to gentleness. He sighed, "Why did you do this?"

now.

Iyer calmed down as well.

"What joy is there in living a life of torment if one cannot take the final step on the path of cultivation?" Iyer said calmly. "However, this disciple's strength is limited, and this promise may only be fulfilled after I become the Universe Controller. I humbly request Master's permission."

"Hmm, that's fine." The Holy Lord nodded and pondered, "I can only give you three at most, Source Walker Lord Master. I will also specially forge three War Beast Weapon for you, each one second only to my body. If the Source Walker Lord Master controls them, even with the pressure of the universe's origin, they can unleash combat power comparable to yours."

"Your combat strength is comparable to mine?" Iyer's eyes lit up.

He is the Ultimate Supreme, whose realm and strength are a level higher than those native Supreme.

Even in Cultivator Universe, where he cannot mobilize the power of the 'Dao', he is confident that he can still kill any native Supreme.

Now, with three more War Beast Weapon of equal strength to himself, plus the two great weapons of war he had forged over countless years...

The chances of winning are at least 70%!

The reason for reducing it by 30% was simply because we were still somewhat unsure about the combat strength of the ' Supreme Bolin ', and we didn't know if those native Supreme had any other trump cards.

But a 70% chance of success was enough for Iyer.

Even with a 50% chance of success, it's worth a shot, let alone a 70% chance.

"Thank you, Master," Iyer said joyfully.

"It will take me some time to refine the War Beast, and to unleash its full combat power, besides the War Beast needing to be Source Walker Lord Master, it also needs to devour the entire power of a Supreme- level life form as its energy source," the Holy Lord said.

"Don't go back for now. Try to capture as many Strange Lifeform as possible in the Endless Space. By the time you return, the War Beast should be ready. As for the three Source Walker I sent you, I'll have them come here directly."

"..."

Iyer paused slightly, then replied, "Master, rest assured, I will go and capture six Supreme- level life forms right away."

Although his master hadn't explained it clearly, he understood everything.

The time required to 'forge' War Beast will depend on the time it takes to capture Supreme- level life form.

After all, the Cultivator Universe already possesses methods similar to the ' Soul Devouring Secret Technique,' which is different from the situation during the ancient war where no matter how fierce the battle was, it did not affect the origin of the universe.

The master's attitude will naturally change.

He understands.

"Go then." The Holy Lord nodded.

Iyer immediately bowed respectfully again before turning around.

call.

Unlike his previous respectful departure through the courtyard gate, Iyer did not leave directly within the wooden fenced courtyard, but instead traversed time and space into the Endless Space.

He needs to hurry.

Although he believed that ' Supreme Bolin ', being a native, had exhausted all his potential and foundation by comprehending one more ' Origin of Ten Thousand Daos ', he would not be able to improve any further in the short term.

But he still wanted to minimize the variables, make all the necessary preparations as soon as possible, and launch a counterattack.

In his mind, besides the fact that Supreme Bolin had made a breakthrough, there was another possibility that could have the power to devour and destroy the true soul of the Sith Clan Lord Master.

"Among those natives, although some Dao Lord are comprehending the Ultimate Dao, not one has successfully achieved Dao Integration."

"With their rudimentary methods, even the most monstrous Dao Lord has no chance to try; failure means death. The probability of them producing Ultimate Emperor is extremely low."

"It couldn't possibly be the Ultimate Emperor has comprehended the ' Great Destruction '."

"No, it won't."

"As long as I hurry and capture the six Strange Lifeform quickly... the sooner I launch the final battle, the greater my chances of winning will be."

Iyer secretly calculated, and the speed at which he traveled through time and space increased faster and faster, almost to the point of desperate effort.

The cultivator is in the Chaos Universe, the Origin Ocean.

In the cave dwelling of the Supreme Tianshi, Zhou Hao and the six Supreme have been discussing the Dao for nearly ten thousand years.

Besides the Supreme Hongran, Supreme Bolin, Supreme Tianshi, and Supreme Ekong who previously dealt with the six Sith Clan Lord Master, there was also the Supreme Being Dishi, who achieved Supreme status through the ' Supreme of Origin of Myriad Dao Illusion,' and the Supreme Being who achieved Supreme through the ' Origin of Myriad Dao Space.'

The ' Supreme of Mogu ' also rushed over.

certainly.

The true form of the Supreme Being of the Mogu was to guard the territory of the Sith Clan for a long time; what came was only a Dharma Body.

"Hoo." Supreme Mogu put down the jade slip in his hand, his eyes filled with emotion and amazement as he looked at Zhou Hao.

"I have always considered myself to have the deepest attainments in the field of space, but now that I have the opportunity to see and comprehend this ' Ultimate Space Dao,' I realize that although I was knowledgeable in many areas, my depth of understanding was far lacking."

"Indeed." Supreme Hongran deeply agreed. "No wonder the Emperor of the Ultimate Dao, though still an ' Eternal Emperor ' in terms of life level, possesses a realm and strength comparable to ours, Supreme. Only the Ultimate Dao, the Complete Path, can be considered a master of a Path, with the potential to refine the origin of the universe."

Mogu Supreme, Supreme Hongran, and the other four Supreme all fused with the strongest Dao to first become Dominator, and then comprehended ' One Dao Gives Birth to Ten Thousand Daos ' to break through and become Supreme.

Although they all knew about the Ultimate Dao and understood the power Ultimate Dao walking it, they were still somewhat unclear about its true nature, judging from the 'path' left behind by those Ultimate Dao Lord who failed to achieve Dao integration.

But now, after studying and comprehending the three jade slips recorded by Zhou Hao, and fully experiencing the perfect 'Ultimate Tai Chi Dao,' ' Ultimate Yin-Yang Dao,' and 'Ultimate Space Dao,' he finally understands where the gap lies.

Just like how one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things.

The Supreme have all attained the Dao of "Three giving birth to all things," meaning that One Dao Gives Birth to Ten Thousand Daos. However, this "three" is not the ultimate Dao. Only by comprehending the "one" can one reach the ultimate, achieve completeness, and undergo a transformative change!

In the face of this ultimate truth, comprehending even the most powerful paths, or reaching the ' Origin of Ten Thousand Daos ' realm where One Dao Gives Birth to Ten Thousand Daos, is of no significance.

Because above them, there is a complete 'Tao'.

The only things that can construct the fundamental principles governing the operation of the entire Chaos Universe are complete and perfect Ultimate Dao.

"Looking at these three Ultimate Dao, I even want to reincarnate and start over." Supreme Ekong shook his head, picked up the fruit wine on the table in front of him, and drank it all in one gulp.

This was during the middle of a discussion on the Dao, when several Supreme lamented that comprehending other ' Origin of Ten Thousand Daos ' would be interfered with by the Dao they had comprehended. At that moment, Zhou Hao revealed the heroic act of his master, the ' Sanqing,' committing suicide to reincarnate.

Although the Sanqing were only true gods at that time, and their Dao realm was no more than that of Ancestor Immortal, their status in the Three Realms at that time was similar to that of several Supreme in the Chaos Universe.

The fact that the Sanqing were able to resolutely and willingly risk eternal damnation to be reincarnated demonstrates their great perseverance and determination, which has earned the admiration of all the Supreme.

"Reincarnation is easy," Supreme Hongran said with a smile. "Once we deal with the Sith Clan, Xiao Long, you can go and reincarnate in peace. I will personally come to guide you then."

"Hey, you know what, it actually works!" Supreme Ekong's eyes lit up.

The Supreme Hongran possesses the ' Origin of Myriad Dao Causality '. If the two establish a cause and effect relationship, there will be unseen causal threads connecting them. Although it would be troublesome to find the reincarnation of others in the vast universe, it is not impossible.

"I advise you to think it over more," the Supreme Tianshi said with a smile. "Hongran has no problem finding people, but given his habits, I'm afraid he might forget about you while researching something else. If it's delayed even a little while, not much, even just a hundred or two Chaos Eras, it'll be enough to make you suffer."

"Yes," Dishi Supreme also shook his head, "We all grew up step by step from weakness, and we know the dangers of the cultivation path. When you are strong, it's alright, but when you reach the True Immortal Ancestor Immortal realm, it's easy to be killed by your enemies and have your soul scattered. By then, it will be too late to regret it."

Reminded by the two Supreme, Tian Tianshi and Dishi, Supreme Ekong was somewhat discouraged.

After all, reaching their level means standing at the very pinnacle of ordinary cultivators.

Giving up everything is not an easy thing.

"Let's cultivate slowly," Supreme Ekong sighed, abandoning the idea of reincarnating and starting over.

However, once this thought arose in his mind, it was like weeds growing everywhere, constantly sprouting. Looking at Zhou Hao expectantly, he said, "If Changsheng Daoist Changsheng can become Universe Controller and manipulate the origin of the universe, I will ask Fellow Changsheng to help me reincarnate as a ' Source Walker.' At that time, I will be born directly into the Origin Ocean, innately powerful, and with the cultivation memories of this life, tsk tsk..."

"Um?"

Zhou Hao was studying the six jade slips containing the ' Origin of Ten Thousand Daos ' recorded by the six Supreme when he heard someone mention him. He looked at everyone with some confusion.

"Is it Xiao Long daydreaming and disturbing you, fellow Daoist?" Supreme Hongran laughed.

"It's alright. I have also finished comprehending the 'Dao' of all six fellow Daoists." Zhou Hao shook his head.

"When do you plan to go to the core space to comprehend the origin of the universe's operation?" Supreme Hongran asked.

For Zhou Hao to resist the temptation to comprehend the fundamental workings of the universe and to continue engaging in philosophical discussions with them for nearly ten thousand years, that alone demonstrates remarkable composure.

This earned the deep admiration of several Supreme.

"After ten thousand years of contemplation and refinement, I have accumulated a great deal of profound mysteries of the Dao that I have struggled to understand. Now is the best time to comprehend the fundamental principles governing the universe," Zhou Hao said with a smile.

This is a little trick in cultivation.

Just like those students on Earth who studied hard in their previous lives, when they encountered difficult problems while doing exercises, they could certainly look up the final answer directly, but that would not benefit their learning at all.

I still don't understand the difficult problems I can't solve.

However, if you have already pondered deeply and accumulated some key points of confusion, then when you look at the answers, especially the correct problem-solving approach, you will suddenly have a sudden realization.

Now, after comprehending the fundamental Origin of Ten Thousand Daos Supreme, he has gained many new insights and questions.

For Zhou Hao, the fundamental principles governing the Chaos Universe of cultivators were precisely the 'correct answers' to the Ultimate Dao.

call.

Zhou Hao got up and walked to the edge of the courtyard.

This is the boundary line where the courtyard's restrictions block the flow of primordial energy; outside lies a surging ocean of primordial energy.

Wow~~~

Within the Small Universe, he released the remaining ten percent of the Sith Clan Lord Master's true spirit, allowing it to dissipate into the ocean of primordial energy.

The souls of those fallen Sith Clan Lord Master have long been destroyed; these true spirits are left only with the purest energy, so they have no fear of them returning to the Sith Clan's Chaos Universe.

"Boom!"

The ocean of primordial energy outside the courtyard suddenly distorted, revealing a colorful spacetime passage, and an invisible will simultaneously enveloped Zhou Hao.

"Let me in?" Zhou Hao understood the meaning of the Origin Will.

But he wouldn't take the risk himself.

He knew very well that, in the eyes of the Origin Will, he was probably in greater danger Sith Clan.

After all, the Sith Clan invaded with the intention of refining and controlling the entire Chaos Universe.

Even if the Sith Clan succeeded, their Origin Will would only be taken over by life forms from other universes; essentially, they would not have suffered any loss.

But Zhou Hao is different.

If Zhou Hao wanted to, he might even seize the primordial energy of the entire Chaos Universe to expand his own Small Universe.

The consequences would be so severe that, for the Origin Will, it would mean annihilation.

In particular, the Origin Will had tried to guide Zhou Hao to refine the origin of the universe on the first two occasions, but he refused both times.

"I'll just enter one divine power avatar. Anyway, I only need to comprehend the operation of the origin, and I don't need to fight," Zhou Hao thought to himself.

From the outside, the Origin Will is powerless against itself, but who knows what lies within the very core space?

If one's true self were to enter and then be suppressed by the Origin Will, unable to escape for eternity, that would be the real trouble.

Having made up his mind, Zhou Hao's heart stirred.

A divine power avatar immediately separated from the divine body and stepped into the space-time passage.

Too lazy to think of chapter titles...
