Chapter 3: Lords
"Being able to comprehend the High Level Primordial Bloodline to breakthrough, indeed shows exceptional talent." Luo Feng praised.
"Perhaps because of that exceptional talent, he also has a bit of arrogance." The slender elder laughed.
A woman in golden clothes beside him said, "That lone wolf character often looks down on us, rarely mingles with us! It's fine if he disregards us, but this time when we high-level Primordial Life forms from the Dark World Group collectively came to pay respect to Brother Luo Feng, he was the only one absent! That's outrageous!"
"More than one of us sent him messages, trying to persuade him." Other high-level Primordial Life forms also expressed dissatisfaction.
"No need to force it."
Luo Feng glanced around, smiled, and said, "Everyone, stop standing, please be seated."
Of course, Luo Feng didn't care about such trivial matters with the lone wolf character. To him, his own cultivation was the essence. The attitude of a talented high-level Primordial Life was just a minor embellishment in his cultivation life.
However, Luo Feng could also see that the lone wolf character was arrogant, and had poor relations with thousands of high-level Primordial Life forms, indicating he was unsuitable for managing such affairs.
"Please, Brother Luo Feng."
Cheng and several others gathered around Luo Feng, and after Luo Feng took the lead to sit, the other more than ten thousand high-level Primordial Life forms then took their seats one by one. Everyone relaxed and started drinking and chatting.
Those who genuinely conversed with Luo Feng were also the strongest such as Cheng and the others.
"What do you high-level Primordial Life forms usually do?" Luo Feng asked.
"We do everything." Cheng explained with a smile, "The Cultivator Camp, in the Infinite Primordial Space, various trivial matters ultimately require us high-level Primordial Life forms to be responsible for."
A golden-clothed woman with three purple scales on her forehead smiled and said, "Guarding various Holy Realms, cultivating billions of Worlds' creatures, along with patrol missions in the Infinite Primordial Space, long-term alert missions, treasure exploration missions, extraction and mining missions... almost all tasks are handled by us high-level Primordial Life forms."
"We can't keep up with all the work; many burdensome tasks are overseen by sending avatars to supervise those who have submitted." A gray-robed man said.
Luo Feng understood.
In the Cultivator Camp, only over eighty million high-level Primordial Life forms have been cultivated. Yet, those who have submitted exceed 50 billion! Even if their Life Cores are refined, they still require 'supervision'!
The high-level Primordial Life forms in the Cultivator Camp are each supervisors.
"The territory commanded by our Cultivator Camp is too vast." Cheng said, "Without relying on those Innate Primordial Life forms, we cannot manage it."
"Indeed, it's not easy." Luo Feng nodded.
The seven Lords are exalted and cannot handle trivial matters.
The Lords oversee the safety of the entire Cultivator Camp! Resisting foreign invasions!
The 237 World-level Primordials cannot be involved in everything.
And those who have not escaped from the Braided Cage cannot enter the 'Infinite Primordial Space'. The main workers are over eighty million high-level Primordial Life forms and the more than 50 billion submitted ones.
"Our group of high-level Primordial Life forms from the Dark World Group are not valued." Cheng said helplessly, "The lone wolf character, the one with the most potential among us, is solitary and completely ignores us. Our days are not easy, and we can only do dirty and tough work."
Luo Feng listened and nodded, then asked, "What is the strength of our high-level Primordial Life forms from the Dark World Group?"
"We are struggling to dig into our bloodline potential." Cheng said, "Our strength is generally in the early and middle stages of 'High Level Primordial Life'. Those who reach the 'later stage' are very few."
"Reaching 'Perfection' in high-level Primordial Life, apart from the lone wolf character, only the three of us." Cheng looked at his two companions beside him.
"Friend Cheng is stronger than us." The golden-clothed woman said, "Friend Cheng was initially refined with World-level Primordial Bloodline and achieved 'Perfection' in high-level Primordial Life, making him hopeful to achieve 'World-level Primordial'. I and Wu Yan dug into high-level Primordial Bloodline, finally reaching Perfection stage. We incorporated new World-level Primordial Bloodline. With two bloodline wills within our bodies, along with memory pollution... I and Wu Yan are unlikely to reach World-level Primordial."
"The hope of me becoming World-level Primordial is also very slim." Cheng shook his head, "Only the lone wolf character! He comprehended the bloodline, thus in a short time achieving Perfection as high-level Primordial. Among those who comprehend bloodlines, one out of several dozen can become World-level Primordial."
Luo Feng nodded.
Of the 237 World-level Primordials, as he understood, nearly a hundred cultivated from high-level Primordial Life forms.
"By the way, how much do you know about the Lords?" Luo Feng asked.
Cheng, the golden-clothed woman, and the gray-robed man were slightly startled.
Lords?
The exalted Lords, they dare not say too much.
"We are all under Lord Yuan." Cheng smiled and said, "Lord Yuan is very tolerant of us, and Starlight Lord and Lord Wulan similarly have very tolerant subordinates. As for other Lords, they have their own requirements for their subordinates."
Luo Feng understood.
Yuan, Starlight, Wulan, these three Lords are all very relaxed in management.
The remaining four should be much stricter.
"The other four Lords have different personalities; among them, Lord Minghuang is the most benevolent." The golden-clothed woman added a sentence, then didn't say more.
After staying long in the Land of Origin, high-level Primordial Life forms naturally understand the style of the seven Lords! But no one dares to speak ill of the Lords, since saying a single word... results in causality, and the Lords will know.
However, Lords usually don't mind.
For these High Level Primordial Lifeforms, the seven Lords are all-knowing and endlessly powerful, protecting the entire Cultivator Camp.
The Lords each have different personalities, and occasionally there are contradictions among them, but it's not up to these High Level Primordial Lifeforms and World-level Primordial Lifeforms to question them.
Luo Feng listened.
Yuan, Starlight, Wulan, are tolerant of their subordinates.
Lord Minghuang is benevolent.
What about the remaining Golden Lord and the other two?
"Starlight Lord is the only one who breaks laws with force," Luo Feng inquired, "Do you know how long it took for Starlight Lord to break laws with force?"
"Before Starlight Lord jumped out of the braided cage, I was already a High Level Primordial Life," Cheng laughed, "So I know the exact time well. Back then, Starlight Lord was at an 'Invincible Level' and also a Fusion Dao Cultivator, and was guided to the Primordial Island. He also lived in that cave mansion on the mountain top."
Luo Feng nodded.
"He lived there for a very long, long time, twelve trillion epochs before breaking through. He should be the longest residing Fusion Dao Cultivator in 'Primordial Island' in history," Cheng said.
"Twelve trillion epochs?" Luo Feng was also taken aback.
This is the time recognized by the outside world. If Lord Starlight also used the time acceleration of the quiet room in the cave mansion back then, it would likely have taken even longer.
Nowadays, the time acceleration of the cave mansion can permanently maintain a million-fold acceleration, it was even set up by Starlight Lord! Before Starlight Lord jumped out of the braided cage, the time acceleration should be far less than it is now.
"Yes, during his stay, there was another Fusion Dao Cultivator that appeared. At that time, another mountain rose on the Primordial Island, and a second cave mansion was built," Cheng said.
From the time spent, Luo Feng could see the difficulty of 'breaking laws with force'.
For a lifeform before jumping out of the braided cage to comprehend the 'Primordial Space-Time Path', it is too difficult and time-consuming.
"Do you know anything more about Starlight Lord's method of breaking laws with force?" Luo Feng asked. Having lived in the Land of Origin for a long time, they should know many rumored secrets.
"I've heard, before Starlight Lord jumped out of the braided cage, he already had a way to reincarnate into other Source Worlds," the golden-dressed woman also said, "He seemed to reside in the Primordial Island cave mansion for twelve trillion epochs, but for most of that time, he was likely reincarnated in various Source Worlds."
"I've also heard that Starlight Lord once applied for a 'World-level Primordial servant', which means a subjugated world-level primordial lifeform," the gray-robed man said, "At that time, the news of him applying for a World-level Primordial servant only emerged after he broke through. That servant... was a submissive innate world-level primordial lifeform, and now that world-level primordial servant is heavily employed by Starlight Lord."
"It's the World-level Primordial 'Kaya Tu'," Cheng also nodded, "I know about this as well, Kaya Tu is highly valued by Starlight Lord!"
"What did Starlight Lord apply for a World-level Primordial servant for?" Luo Feng asked.
Applying for a 'World-level Primordial servant' are of course those who are captured and subjugated. But the cost of applying is still extremely high, requiring as much as 5 million reward points.
Fusion Dao Cultivators would think twice before exchanging for it.
"It's said that it was for exploration in the Infinite Primordial Space."
"Starlight Lord, before jumping out of the braided cage, was full of curiosity about the Infinite Primordial Space, reportedly visiting many very special and mysterious places. Weaker servants didn't have the ability to go, so he specifically selected a 'World-level Primordial servant'.
"Kaya Tu is also skilled in space-time related abilities."
Cheng and the others talked.
Early on these were secrets, but after Starlight Lord broke laws with force, these gradually got revealed.
From these traces, Luo Feng could also infer some of the ways Starlight Lord 'broke laws with force'.
"On his own, he could reincarnate multiple times into the Source Worlds? Sending avatars and the World-level Primordial servant 'Kaya Tu' to explore and cultivate long-term in the Infinite Primordial Space?" Luo Feng thought.
"Moreover, he spent a total of about twelve trillion epochs before he finally broke laws with force."
Luo Feng was certain in his heart.
Some information is not recorded in the official data of the Land of Origin. But these High Level Primordial Lifeforms, having lived here for a long time, have heard many rumors.
…
Luo Feng drank and talked with them for a long time, finally truly understanding the entire Cultivator Camp.
Now, he had a clear grasp of the operation of the camp's order. He also learned about some past conflicts and wars between the Cultivator Camp and the Innate Primordial Lifecamp. Even the tempers of the seven Lords became clearer to Luo Feng.
Luo Feng returned to the cave mansion at the mountain top of Primordial Island.
"Starlight Lord spent twelve trillion epochs to break laws with force, so if I want to break laws with force, I must first have enough patience and not be in a hurry," Luo Feng was now more psychologically prepared.
He was ready for long-term cultivation.
"The foundation must be sufficiently solid."
Luo Feng sat cross-legged in the quiet room, "Among the more than 800 million types of Low-level Primordial bloodlines, those with life type, destruction type, and 'both life and death', there are a total of over 56.03 million types of Low-level Primordial bloodlines."
"I will start anew, and for each of these 56.03 million types of Low-level Primordial bloodlines and corpse materials, I will conduct 'Secret Pattern Completion', thoroughly researching each one."
Luo Feng was not in a hurry to create the 'Primordial Level Life and Death Dao', instead choosing to first study the weakest 'Low-level Primordial bloodlines', thus beginning his first secluded cultivation at the Land of Origin.
