Chapter 373: Creating a Primordial-level Path!
Inside the Cave Dwelling Quiet Chamber.
Luo Feng sat cross-legged. He first swallowed a pill, then ate a spiritual fruit, and finally picked up a wine jug beside him and gulped it down. His soul faintly radiated light, and his condition reached an unprecedented peak!
“Since this is my first attempt at creating a Primordial-level Path, I need to be in better condition.” Luo Feng rarely indulged like this. A single pill and one spiritual fruit already cost eighty thousand Reward Points, not even counting the wine!
“Let’s begin the creation!”
Luo Feng already had a prototype of the Primordial Life-and-Death Path in his mind. Now, he needed to construct everything he envisioned step by step.
The ‘Eye of Life and Death’ at his forehead opened. With a thought, strands of secret patterns were drawn in the void before him. These patterns naturally fused life and destruction attributes, everything seeming as if ford by heaven itself.
One day, two days, a hundred days, a thousand days, ten thousand days…
Luo Feng ticulously constructed the formation diagram of secret patterns.
“At this speed, it will probably take around ten Epochs to complete,” Luo Feng judged.
A Primordial-level Path was far too vast—it stood on the sa level as a Primordial Ancestor-level secret pattern diagram! The number of secret patterns was astronomical. Every section had to be drawn continuously without pause. Completing it would take about ten Epochs.
“It sounded good in theory, but when actually constructing it piece by piece, many problems erged.” Luo Feng occasionally paused to think and resolve issues.
It was like building an extrely precise machine spanning billions of kiloters. Problems in the early construction phase might not be noticed at first, only to beco unsolvable once the structure was halfway completed.
Creating a ‘Path’ was the sa.
Many hidden problems only surfaced later, leaving him to patch things up and barely integrate everything.
By the ti the enormous secret pattern diagram was fully constructed, eighteen Epochs had passed.
“It’s finally done.”
Luo Feng looked at the vast floating diagram before him with excitent. Though exhausted, he had finally built a complete structure. The diagram was boundlessly profound, fully comparable to a Primordial Ancestor-level diagram.
“The first version of the Primordial Life-and-Death Path took eighteen Epochs to form,” Luo Feng said as he observed it. “Unfortunately, there are too many flaws. I can spot many issues at a glance.”
“Still, I’ve at least built the overall frawork. A frawork at the sa level as a Primordial Ancestor diagram. And I’ve learned a lot from it.”
He believed the second attempt would be much stronger.
“Let’s try constructing a clone based on this diagram.”
Simply observing the diagram couldn’t reveal all flaws. But building a clone from it would expose many problems.
The energy within the Cave Dwelling Quiet Chamber was practically infinite for cultivators within the Cage of the World.
With a single thought, vast energy gathered, rapidly forming a body. This body reached an energy reserve of 15 billion tis, far exceeding Luo Feng’s original body.
Because it was too massive, most of it couldn’t be controlled properly and could only transform into a Blood Sea governed by a formation. A portion maintained a humanoid form, covered in a layer of cyan scales, giving off an indestructible aura.
Feeling this clone, Luo Feng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“The first version of the Primordial Life-and-Death Path has too many flaws. I can’t even fully control the body. Most of the energy can only beco a Blood Sea. Still, the humanoid portion is quite strong. These cyan scales even have so characteristics of the Star Tower Blood Scales.”
Luo Feng analyzed the clone.
Without escaping the Cage of the World, even if the Half-Primordial Life-and-Death Path improved, it still remained within the Cage. Adding more complexities could grant abilities—but might also introduce flaws.
Many Half-Primordial Seekers added unnecessary complexity, weakening rather than strengthening themselves.
Even though this was only the first version, the clone was still far stronger than his original body.
Although overall control had decreased slightly, the perfectly controlled portion still exceeded 5 billion tis energy reserve. Total energy reserves had increased significantly, and the humanoid combat strength rose greatly.
It was still much stronger than the Half-Primordial Life-and-Death Path.
“Too many flaws. Even the ntal consciousness system has issues.”
From the clone, Luo Feng identified more problems in the first version.
“Scrap it completely and start over!”
“Second attempt at creating the Primordial Life-and-Death Path!”
With experience from the first attempt, Luo Feng was far more cautious. The early construction had to be extrely precise, as everything later depended on it.
This ti took slightly less—fifteen Epochs—to complete the second version.
“Much stronger than before!”
Luo Feng looked at the new diagram. Life and destruction rged within it, each secret pattern flowing with light. It even allowed him to vaguely sense a supre level of power.
Rumble—
That power faintly tempted his mind, drawing him in.
“I can feel the highest level of power… just a little more… just a little more,” Luo Feng murmured. “My diagram is already very close.”
He was delighted. The diagram was still vast, yet he couldn’t find obvious flaws. It felt unified, like a true origin.
Like a Primordial Ancestor diagram resembling the origin itself—
his diagram now felt the sa.
“I can’t see any flaws on the surface,” Luo Feng thought. “But although I feel that supre power, this second version hasn’t undergone a qualitative transformation. It hasn’t beco a true Primordial-level Path.”
He knew this clearly.
According to the Cultivator Faction’s intelligence, once one comprehended a Primordial-level Path, one’s life level would directly ascend to the Primordial Lord level.
But he had not escaped the Cage—proof that this was still a failure.
Even if very close, it was still failure.
“Since I can’t see flaws in the diagram, I’ll build a clone.”
He constructed another clone.
As energy gathered, a humanoid form rapidly ford. Blood-colored scales appeared on its surface—eight or nine tenths similar to the Star Tower Blood Scales. As it ford, its aura grew terrifying.
Boom—
An invisible rule domain naturally ford.
This terrifying domain could suppress Luo Feng’s previous body.
“This clone can hold 19.1 billion tis energy reserve—and perfectly control every bit of it.”
“The ntal consciousness system fully controls every part. My ntal will has increased dramatically—likely reaching the World-level Primordial Lifeform level.”
Luo Feng was shocked.
This second version was exceptional.
Imnse energy reserves, powerful ntal will.
“My thinking speed is several tis faster than before, even after consuming treasures.”
With a thought, the scales extended and fused into a blade.
“My body can transform into a weapon.”
He swung the blade lightly—it easily tore through space.
“I haven’t escaped the Cage, but this clone should rival High-Rank Primordial Lifeforms.”
The second version was extrely close to success.
“Where are the billions of origins that were supposed to form within my body?”
He suddenly realized—
“I see the problem!”
“In pursuit of perfection, I weakened both life and destruction aspects.”
“I need to strengthen them.”
…
Luo Feng retained the second clone, as it significantly enhanced his thinking speed and comprehension.
The third version beca even more profound, integrating more life and destruction mysteries.
“More perfect.”
When the diagram was completed, Luo Feng felt resonance with a supre power—almost within reach.
“Closer… but still lacking sothing.”
He constructed a third clone.
In monts, a towering body appeared.
“Over 30 billion tis energy reserve… and three origins within the body. Each can store 100 billion tis energy.”
“My thinking speed is ten tis faster than the second version.”
“My ntal will has reached standard World-level Primordial Lifeform level.”
“My body is indestructible.”
His body itself felt like a terrifying weapon, with flesh and bones showing characteristics of blood-colored scales.
“Still just a bit short… If my entire body structure matched the blood-colored scales, my body would be truly indestructible—the ultimate weapon!”
He sensed that one more step would complete the Primordial Life-and-Death Path.
He would beco the eighth Primordial Lord.
“Wait—no!”
Luo Feng suddenly jolted.
“Wrong!”
“I took the wrong path!”
Without Bloodline Will Contamination or mory Contamination, he clearly recognized the issue.
“In the second version, I pursued flawlessness—perfect balance of life and destruction. That’s where I went wrong!”
“I kept trying to balance them.”
“As a result, I only have three origins instead of billions. And destruction traits are increasing—my body is turning into blood-colored scales.”
“It seems like I’m close—but following the wrong path will never lead to the destination.”
“My foundation—the Half-Primordial Life-and-Death Path—has always been life-dominant.”
A life-dominant foundation could never produce a perfectly balanced life-and-death result.
“That sense of closeness… was just an illusion.”
“My Path is not one of balance.”
“It is an extre path—first pursuing the ultimate extre of life.”
