By a dark lake in the Primal Land, seven Lords sat on the ground, exchanging information.

“Thirteen Ancestors, led by Ancestor Yanhuo, suddenly erupted, tying up Wulan and injuring Jin, Minghuang, and Moman!” Lord Naigu said. “Fortunately, Yuan’s array stabilized the situation, or the seven of us would have had to flee for our lives just now!”

“Without your threat, these Ancestors are even more unbridled!”

“That was indeed a close call!” Wulan nodded. Although his own body was formidable, the various highest-level powers wielded by the Ancestors were equally difficult to contend with.

Ancestor Yanhuo had just unleashed his power. Ancestor Yanhuo, a born primal chaos life-form, was renowned as one of the top Ancestors in their faction, possessing immense strength. In the Eternal Land, it also held a seat, an immortal and indestructible existence. It was the absolute hawk of the born primal chaos life-form faction. Just moments ago, it had instantly swallowed Lord Wulan’s massive combat avatar. Although it only restrained him for a breath of time before Lord Wulan tore through Ancestor Yanhuo’s body and broke free, it still created a momentary vulnerability in their coordination!

Ancestor Yanhuo, though torn apart, instantly reformed as endless flames converged. At that moment, the twelve erupting Ancestors, along with dozens of others, severely wounded Lords Jin, Minghuang, and Moman in an instant. If not for the help of other Lords, their combat avatars might have been annihilated!

No Lord feared a one-on-one fight! However, when faced with a coordinated assault, even a combat avatar could be destroyed. The strategy of delay would inevitably incur some costs!

Xingmang said, “I must allocate power to attack the armies of the born primal chaos life-form faction. Only then can I instill fear in the world-level primal chaos beings, significantly slowing their speed in conquering source worlds. As for dealing with the Ancestor-level beings, based on my observations of the future, as long as we follow Yuan’s lead, we can hold out!”

“Holding out once or twice… but ten or a hundred times? I know the future is uncertain!” Lord Naigu gently shook his head. “We cannot blindly trust what we see of the future!”

“You’re right!” Xingmang nodded.

“Naigu!” Lord Jin frowned and reprimanded, “Your life force is stronger than many Ancestors. None of us are afraid, so what are you afraid of?”

“I’m not afraid; I’m worried the delay strategy will fail. After all, once the seven of us Lords collapse, those Ancestors can freely attack the Posun world group, and the Bozhui world group might fall even faster!” Lord Naigu said.

“Xingmang, increase your combat avatar’s power to ninety percent, and use the remaining ten percent to attack those world-level primal chaos beings! They’re now terrified of you… there should be far fewer who dare to recklessly attack source worlds! Your ten percent power is already enough to deter them!”

“I agree with Naigu!” Lord Moman nodded.

Xingmang smiled, “My combat avatar has already recovered to ninety percent!”

Naigu was startled, and Jin, Minghuang, Moman, Yuan, and Wulan were all quite surprised!

“It was so dangerous just now, yet you hid your true strength?” Wulan asked.

“It only *seemed* dangerous just now!” Xingmang smiled. “I was waiting for an opportunity – an opportunity to strike them hard!”

“Let’s not get too caught up in calculations and end up losing all seven of us!” Lord Naigu remarked.

The combined efforts of multiple Ancestors placed immense pressure on the Lords!

“Trust Xingmang!” Yuan said. “Xingmang occasionally observes the future. When does he estimate Luo Feng will break through?” Lord Minghuang asked.

The other five Lords also looked at Xingmang.

“Luo Feng has already touched upon the profound mysteries of the highest-level power by comprehending those primal chaos bloodlines!” Xingmang smiled faintly. “He is currently attempting to create a Dao at the primal chaos level. In just a few dozen epochs, the Dao he created for the second time has already reached the ‘near-Dao’ level!”

“‘Near-Dao’? So fast?”

“When I first became a Source World Master, it took me three hundred billion epochs to reach the ‘near-Dao’ level!” Jin said. “After perceiving the pull of the highest-level destructive power, it took another five thousand epochs to truly grasp the Primal Chaos Destruction Dao!”

“Once one reaches the ‘near-Dao’ level, comprehension of the Dao becomes certain. Luo Feng has only been brought here for fifteen hundred million epochs of actual cultivation time. To reach ‘near-Dao’ so quickly, he’ll likely only need a few more billion epochs, or at most a few hundred billion epochs, to certainly achieve the Dao!”

These Lords were all quite expectant! According to the experience of the cultivators’ faction, once one can perceive the pull of the highest-level power, it signifies extreme proximity. The next step is a slow, painstaking process of gradual accumulation and refinement. Eventually, they will master it! Since it’s already within reach, given their talent, they are bound to achieve it with a bit more time.

“His current cave dwelling has time acceleration of hundreds of millions of times, so we estimate a new Lord will emerge in only about a hundred epochs!” Xingmang smiled faintly. “When that happens, the situation will change!”

Everyone present nodded. The cooperation of eight Lords would boost their overall strength by at least twenty to thirty percent compared to seven.

“He cultivates the Primal Chaos Creation and Destruction Dao, a path that will greatly benefit our entire cultivators’ faction!” Yuan said with a smile. The other six Lords were also highly expectant! In the boundless Primal Chaos Space, there were many beings who had mastered the highest-level powers! Beyond the born primal chaos life-form faction and the cultivators’ faction, there were other factions. The Lords had witnessed certain beings skilled in the direction of life and had always yearned for such companions!

Luo Feng was precisely such a companion!

Inside a tranquil room within an ordinary cave dwelling in the Primal Land! “I’ve finally made it!” Tianlangke had refined the world-level primal chaos bloodline. As his comprehension had reached seventy percent and it was integrated into his body, it instantly triggered an evolution throughout his entire being. Countless white hairs emerged on his body, and he transformed into a colossal beast!

Tianlangke’s cave dwelling was designed for a high-level primal chaos life-form. The tranquil room within this dwelling was relatively small, and in an instant, the massive beast filled the entire spatial confines of the room! Tianlangke was slightly annoyed and reverted to his human form!

“So what if he’s a fusion Dao cultivator? I’ve still become a world-level primal chaos being first!” Tianlangke smiled. Luo Feng’s emergence had put considerable pressure on Tianlangke. After all, it was relatively easy for a fusion Dao cultivator to become a world-level primal chaos being. If Luo Feng became a world-level primal chaos being first, then the Dark World Group might fall under his command!

The Dark World Group was considered his home world group. If two world-level primal chaos beings emerged in one world group, it was a tacit rule that whoever broke through first would take charge. Tianlangke still hoped to lead his home world group. Therefore, as soon as Luo Feng arrived in the Primal Land, Tianlangke exchanged for an auxiliary wonder and pushed himself relentlessly until he finally succeeded today!

“The Dark World Group will ultimately be under my command!” Tianlangke was in excellent spirits. If he, Tianlangke, had remained at the high-level primal chaos life stage, he would have been assigned to Luo Feng’s subordinates and would have had to respectfully pay homage. But now, that was no longer necessary! “Becoming a world-level primal chaos being changes everything!” Tianlangke stepped out of the tranquil room in his cave dwelling, awaiting a summons from the Lords.

After a while…

“What’s going on?” Tianlangke was somewhat perplexed. “I’ve become a world-level primal chaos being, so why haven’t the Lords summoned me?” According to the rules of the cultivators’ faction, the birth of every world-level primal chaos being was a major event. The Lord of the corresponding territory would personally summon them, assign them a position, and arrange for them to command a world group. Yet, Tianlangke had broken through and wasn’t summoned!

“It’s wartime now; the Lords are probably locked in a life-and-death struggle with the Ancestors and don’t have time for me at the moment!” Tianlangke speculated. “I’ll go visit some world-level primal chaos beings in the Central Land first!” Having become a world-level primal chaos being, his natural companions would be those of the same level. He also wasn’t worried about lacking necessary resources. As long as he had indeed become a world-level primal chaos being before Luo Feng, the Dark World Group would certainly fall under his command!

“Tianlangke, that little fellow, has also become a world-level primal chaos being,” Yuan naturally knew this. The cultivators’ territory was currently divided into seven major domains, with Yuan commanding one of them. The Dark World Group was also within this territory. Tianlangke’s becoming a world-level primal chaos being would naturally be arranged by Yuan! “No rush!”

“Once Luo Feng becomes a Lord, his territory will need to be re-divided, and the Dark World Group will become his absolute domain!” Yuan thought. This was also a rule set by the Lords: a Lord’s home world group was their absolute domain, and other Lords had no right to interfere with its management. The numerous other world groups, however, were managed according to the rules of the entire cultivators’ faction, rules jointly decided by the seven Lords! With the birth of a new Lord, territories would be re-divided, with the exception of their home world group. In the eyes of the seven Lords, the Dark World Group was already tacitly considered Luo Feng’s absolute domain.

Inside the tranquil room of Luo Feng’s cave dwelling, atop a high mountain on Primal Chaos Island!

“To date, I have attempted to create the Primal Chaos Creation and Destruction Dao at the primal chaos level 38,291,022 times! In over 93% of those attempts, I felt the pull of the highest-level power, a feeling of being within reach, yet I couldn’t quite grasp it!”

Since he began attempting to create the Primal Chaos Creation and Destruction Dao, over a billion epochs had passed. Throughout this long and arduous period, Luo Feng had been tormented by suffering. After all, each time he felt so close, only to fail, which was naturally agonizing! Luo Feng had explored and attempted various approaches. He had tried creating from the foundation of the Half-Primal Chaos Creation and Destruction Dao, even developing an origin system with it as the core, and a mind-consciousness system as the core… He had experimented with all sorts of creation methods over the long epochs, and by today, Luo Feng no longer knew how else to try!

“I’ve exhausted every possibility!” Luo Feng sat there, blankly. Behind him were fifteen avatars. These fifteen avatars differed slightly in appearance, but each one exuded an incredibly terrifying aura, having already touched the threshold of world-level primal chaos life-forms! These fifteen avatars were the fifteen most perfect attempts out of Luo Feng’s over thirty million tries. Luo Feng himself could find no flaws in any of them!
