Chapter 378: The Paths of the Seven Lords
This stream of information contained much common knowledge that Lords ought to know.
“An Origin Land Lord-level cave dwelling has already been prepared for ?” Luo Feng learned from the information stream about the structure of the Origin Land, its hidden regions, the formation frawork, entry and exit routes, and more.
Each Lord occupied a vast cave dwelling, presiding over one region.
Luo Feng’s cave dwelling was located at one of the formation nodes. His arrival could make the Origin Land’s grand formation even more stable.
“Hu.”
With a sweep of his thoughts, Luo Feng covered the entire Origin Land. He also ca into contact with the other seven Lords, more than 200 World-level Primordial Lifeforms, over 80 million High-Rank Primordial Lifeforms, and so cultivators within the Cage of the World.
Only the other seven Lords could perceive Luo Feng’s thoughts.
“Luo Feng, congratulations on becoming the eighth Lord of our Cultivator Faction.” Yuan was full of joy. “This war will turn because of you. The fate of the entire Cultivator Territory will change because of you!”
“Hurry and familiarize yourself with all the information and comprehend your own combat thods! After that, we’ll study how to coordinate.” Lord Jin urged. He had been stifled for too long and was now waiting for Luo Feng to join and launch a counterattack.
“Brother Luo Feng, the life energy you contain is even greater than mine.” Lord Wulan was also very pleased. When the Lords acted together in the past, it had mainly been him holding the line. But those Primordial Ancestors all wielded the highest-level powers, with strange and unpredictable thods! Even with Yuan’s formation support, he could only barely block most of them. Now that Luo Feng had joined, things would be much easier. The two of them could cooperate with each other.
“Luo Feng, congratulations.” Lord Minghuang was the most concise.
“Brother Luo Feng, with you and Wulan, future clashes between our Cultivator Faction and the Innate Primordial Lifeform Faction will be much easier. The two of you alone can stabilize the situation.” Lord Naigu was in an excellent mood. He had previously been pessimistic, but now he felt optimistic.
With Lord Wulan’s extrely strong defense, combined with Lord Luo Feng—whose energy reserves were more than three tis that of Wulan—group battles would beco far easier for the other Lords, whose bodies were relatively weaker.
Previously, when Lord Wulan alone had been restrained, the Primordial Ancestors launched frenzied attacks. Lord Jin, Lord Minghuang, and Momán’s Main Combat Clones had nearly been shattered. Such perilous situations occurred frequently.
Lord Naigu had had enough of that constant danger. He wanted sothing more stable.
“Brother Luo Feng, I’ve long been looking forward to your appearance.” Lord Momán was quite delighted. They all knew that Luo Feng was a Lord who followed the path of ‘life’ while practicing Breaking All Techniques with Strength.
Life—what did that an? Everyone understood.
Everyone hoped to have a companion proficient in the Path of Life!
“Everyone, I’ll first study combat thods,” Luo Feng responded to the seven companions.
He knew that in the long years ahead, these seven Lords would be the most trustworthy companions he had in the Infinite Source Space! They were the strongest force protecting the entire Cultivator Faction.
……
With a single step, Luo Feng arrived at a vast cave dwelling. This cave dwelling occupied a massive landmass within an ocean of the Origin Land, covering about one percent of its total area.
Based on the foundation of the Origin Land, layers upon layers of space-ti had been opened within this vast cave dwelling. When combined, these layers exceeded even a single Source World in size.
Hu.
At this mont, Luo Feng sat cross-legged at the center of a vast space-ti region.
“First, understand the seven Lords.”
Luo Feng had no experience in battles at the level of Lords and Primordial Ancestors, so he naturally needed to study them carefully.
His thinking speed was now vastly faster than before. With a single probe, he fully understood the ‘Paths’ created by the seven Lords, their combat thods, and so of their cultivation experiences.
“Jin—he created the Primordial Destruction Path. According to his own description, his path is nine parts destruction and one part life. Pure destruction alone makes it difficult to construct a lifeform, so a small amount of life profundity must be integrated.”
“The Split Sky Blade I obtained is also roughly nine parts destruction and one part life.” Luo Feng flipped his hand and took out the Split Sky Blade. Now, holding it posed no pressure to him.
“Jin’s path is very similar to the path of the Split Sky Blade. I wonder if there’s any connection.” Luo Feng pondered.
Holding the Split Sky Blade, he could faintly sense a place filled with endless destructive aura. Even with his current strength, it still felt vast and unfathomable. That place also nurtured thousands upon thousands of weapons, each nearly indestructible, all usable as Lord-level weapons.
“The Split Sky Blade contains the highest-level destruction profundities and can serve as a Lord-level weapon.” Only now did Luo Feng confirm this. “And in that mysterious place, I can sense thousands upon thousands of such weapons?”
“That place must hold many secrets. After the war, I’ll investigate it thoroughly.” Luo Feng was very interested in it and believed the other Lords should have information about it.
But for now, the war was the priority. Luo Feng mainly focused on understanding the Lords, the Primordial Ancestors, and general knowledge.
The more vast information could be studied slowly when he had ti.
“After becoming a Lord, I can perceive more of the Infinite Source Space. There are many unknowns.” Luo Feng sensed many terrifying and mysterious locations within the Infinite Source Space. These places were completely undisguised, and so even gave him a strong sense of threat.
Before becoming a Lord, Luo Feng had already known about the ‘Infinite World’ born from the Infinite Serpent Clan. With that world, one could instantly appear anywhere within the Infinite Source Space.
There was also the Origin Land, occupied by the Cultivator Faction.
And the mysterious place that birthed the Split Sky Blade…
“There are many such mysterious places. I’ll explore them slowly in the future.”
“Wulan cultivates the Primordial Material Path. In reality, it is nine parts material and one part infinity combined! Pure material alone does not yield the strongest defense. A degree of infinity profundity must be integrated to allow conversion between matter and energy. According to Wulan, if more infinity profundity could be fused, his thods would beco more flexible instead of so clumsy.”
Within the information Luo Feng received was Wulan’s complete ‘Path’ record and full inheritance description.
It could not be directly learned!
Each Lord’s path contained their own ntal will. At most, one could draw limited inspiration from it.
“Minghuang—Primordial Lightning Path. Eight parts lightning, two parts water.”
“Only Lord Momán is the most extre and pure. His path is a purely ‘Primordial Fluctuation Path’.” Luo Feng was quite shocked after learning this.
Including himself, among the eight Lords, only Lord Momán was this pure.
His body was essentially a ‘fluctuation,’ and among the eight Lords, he had the smallest physical form and the lowest energy reserves.
“Is he that extre?”
Only after understanding Momán did Luo Feng realize that Momán was the first being to beco a Source World Master through the Path of Faith! His voice alone could make countless beings submit, and he had opened a completely pure Primordial Fluctuation Path.
This path was highly lethal even to Primordial Ancestors. Without noticing, it could penetrate deep into their bodies, and the longer the fight lasted, the more their injuries accumulated.
“Lord Naigu and Yuan’s paths are sowhat similar.”
Luo Feng noticed this.
“Lord Naigu follows the Primordial Bloodline Path! He must absorb Primordial Ancestor-level bloodlines. Each such bloodline is extrely special and very difficult to fully master. With every additional bloodline mastered, his strength increases. In theory, he can continue growing indefinitely.”
“Senior Yuan follows the Primordial Rule Operation Path.”
Yuan had comprehended the greatest number of Paths within the Cultivator Faction. He had comprehended one Path after another. Back then, after fully understanding the perfect operation of nine Paths, he realized the ‘Rule Operation System’ and beca a Lord.
“Other Lords each specialize in their own paths, but Senior Yuan can cultivate multiple paths simultaneously. Although each path is only a complete Great Dao at the God King Ultimate Realm stage, he has already accumulated 25 such Great Daos.”
The perfect operation of nine Great Daos ford the Primordial Rule Operation Path, allowing Yuan to beco a Lord.
As he comprehended more Great Daos and integrated them into his system, his strength continued to grow. Excluding Starlight Primordial Lord, Yuan was already significantly stronger than the other Lords.
“Naigu and Yuan’s paths are unique—they can continuously accumulate and improve.”
“Naigu, Jin, Wulan, Minghuang, and Momán are still at the sa level. Yuan is already half a step above them.”
“And Starlight Primordial Lord is a full step stronger than Naigu and the others.”
Before Luo Feng, Starlight Primordial Lord had been the only one who practiced Breaking All Techniques with Strength.
“Starlight Primordial Lord is a full step stronger?” After carefully understanding the inheritance, Luo Feng realized, “That extra step refers to comprehending a second Primordial-level Path!”
Yes, a Primordial-level Path represented the essence of a supre power.
But with sufficient capability, it was possible to comprehend a second Primordial-level Path. At that point, one’s strength would naturally far surpass the other Lords.
“Each Lord walks a path that aligns with their deepest desires. Only then can they beco a Lord.”
“To switch paths would an it’s no longer their truest desire. Even with a Lord’s imnse thinking speed, comprehension, and observation, the chance of comprehending a second Primordial-level Path is nearly zero.”
This was the consensus among the Lords.
Before breaking free from the Cage of the World, Starlight Primordial Lord, as a Half-Primordial Lifeform, had already comprehended the Primordial Space-Ti Path. At that ti, his life level was too low. He had sufficient understanding of space, but much weaker understanding of ti within the Infinite Source Space.
Thus, his Primordial Space-Ti Path—achieved through Breaking All Techniques with Strength—was space-dominant: nine parts space, one part ti. Even so, his direct combat power was already formidable.
After becoming a Lord, he comprehended another Primordial Space-Ti Path—this ti ti-dominant: seven parts ti, three parts space. With the combination of both paths, he beca the most terrifying existence in terms of space-ti within the entire Infinite Source Space.
His frontal combat ability surpassed the other Lords by a large margin.
But his most terrifying aspect was his ability to be ‘everywhere,’ ‘present at all tis,’ and ‘impossible to kill’! Other Lords, though powerful, could have their Main Combat Clones destroyed. Even Wulan could be restrained and trapped.
But Starlight Primordial Lord? He could not be killed! No matter how terrifying the attack, his body could descend from the past or future at any mont. In battle, it was impossible to kill him—he could appear anywhere at any ti.
His existence was what kept the Cultivator Territory stable!
Why had the Innate Primordial Lifeform Faction paid such a massive price yet only conquered just over six hundred World Clusters? Why were there so many casualties among World-level Primordial Lifeforms and High-Rank Primordial Lifeforms?
It was because of the omnipresent Starlight Primordial Lord.
“No wonder Senior Yuan believes Starlight contributed the most.”
“But Senior Yuan is modest. Every Lord’s growth owes sothing to him.” Luo Feng thought. It was because of the first Lord’s ergence and resource cultivation that later Lords could exist.
Without Senior Yuan, how could Starlight Primordial Lord have exchanged for a World-level Primordial Lifeform Servant before breaking free from the Cage of the World?
Without Senior Yuan and Starlight, Luo Feng wouldn’t have had the Star Tower or the countless Primordial Bloodlines for comprehension. Becoming a Lord would have been far more difficult.
“The path Starlight Primordial Lord took aligns with my own ideas!” Luo Feng had long thought similarly.
Before breaking free from the Cage of the World, he had already realized that his Path of Life and Death had deviated under the guidance of the Star Tower’s Blood Scales—seven parts life, three parts destruction. At the ti, he had no choice but to follow it through, though it was also a path he liked.
“As a lifeform, life should be primary.”
“But to kill enemies, destruction must take the lead.”
“I can attempt to create a new Primordial Life-and-Death Path, one dominated by destruction.” Luo Feng had long held this idea, but his life level had previously been too low to even consider attempting a second path.
Now, as a Lord, he could try.
“The path I create in the future could have a different na.” Luo Feng looked at the Split Sky Blade in his hand. “For example, the Primordial Blade Path.”
Nas were rely labels.
“Creating a new path will take an unknown amount of ti. I’ll study it slowly after the war ends.” Luo Feng understood the difficulty of creating a second Primordial Path. All other Lords had failed, and even Starlight Primordial Lord had taken an extrely long ti.
……
“These Primordial Ancestors are also very powerful.” Luo Feng carefully studied his future opponents. Although they had grown through Life Cores, it did not an they were weak.
Among them were strong and weak individuals. The strongest were even superior to the Lords in certain aspects.
Even before comprehending his second space-ti path, there had been several beings whose mastery over space-ti surpassed Starlight Primordial Lord. Only now had he risen to first place.
“Over seventy Primordial Ancestors joining forces to destroy everything—their power is terrifying.” Luo Feng felt so shock. Could he withstand it?
After understanding his allies and his enemies, Luo Feng began attempting to create a systematic combat thod based on his own Path.
