Luo Yuan discovered that hunting powerful fighters was a far quicker way to gather Origin Force than collecting treasures, and he concealed his identity while eliminating opponents in secret realms. To avoid drawing the attention of supreme experts, he turned his sights toward notorious top hunters, whose identities and past faction ties he learned about from a public list.

• Luo Yuan concluded that reaching the immortal realm would let him encounter stronger powerhouses, gather more origin force, and learn more about the universe’s origin will.

• Luo Yuan arrived in a vast space for Undying-level powerhouses and realized that even its lowest-ranked planets held many long-lived residents.

• Luo Yuan weighed three paths to greater power: ascending through cultivation, borrowing strength from an Origin Will, or taking complete control of a universe’s origin.
• Luo Yuan recognized that an Origin Will would eliminate anyone who threatened its control, so he planned to grow stronger without revealing his intentions.

Luo Yuan arrived on a planet where undying beings were forced by the universe’s origin will to fight and grow stronger, and he recognized that the system ultimately served the origin will’s interests. When nearby beings gathered to seize his origin force, he chose to face them to test his preparations and learn the strength of the planet’s inhabitants.

• Luo Yuan questioned the fighters about the planet’s factions and learned that only the ten strongest factions had invited him and that they knew nothing of the Origin Will.

Luo Yuan joined the Heavenly Alliance and was brought to its headquarters, where his exceptional combat ability earned him the faction’s highest-standard genius training.

Luo Yuan faced a speed-focused genius whose Secret Technique let him use Instantaneous Movement despite his Undying-level realm. By reading his opponent’s attacks and evading without revealing his own movement technique, Luo Yuan showed the gathered experts how he could counter extreme speed, while seeking insight from the battle.

• Luo Yuan considered how fighting the ten geniuses could teach him their Higher Inheritance Secret Techniques and help him find a path to greater strength.
• The first challenger used a speed Secret Technique that gave him an ability comparable to Instantaneous Movement, and Luo Yuan chose not to use the same method so he could hide his origins.

• The challenger used the opening Luo Yuan exposed and attacked from behind, but Luo Yuan predicted the strike and evaded it with a simple movement.
• The challenger changed his attacks repeatedly but still could not touch Luo Yuan, who relied on combat insight rather than superior speed or defense.
