Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

The force behind this legendary figure is also connected to him by fate; to be precise, it is related to the mythical beast.

Extraterrestrial demons are not bound by cause and effect, but the native demon gods have already been drawn into the web of rules.

Of course, this Fangyuan world is not a classical cultivation world. The Dao of Cause and Effect and the Dao of Destiny are only one of the original Daos.

However, because of the manifestation of the Origin Path, they have embarked on the same Origin Profession, and their connections with each other will be closer, since everyone is harnessing the power of the Origin Path.

"It seems there might be something else waiting for me in this desolate place."

Lu Yunhe smiled inwardly. He had extracted a clone before his death, and the arrival of the clone was in accordance with the operation of the rules of heaven and earth.

It's not that the will of heaven and earth deliberately caused this, but rather that life itself has its own weight, and the world's operation is like a torrent, naturally exerting a certain driving force on those enormous things.

It is easy to follow the will of Heaven, but there is no such thing as going against it.

Just as the rules of the world may give rise to a demon god of destruction to drive the cycle of the world, if you carry out destruction or even want to create order, that is your own business, and the world doesn't care.

The supreme rule of this origin world should be more active than that of other origin worlds, probably because that special true god helped him share the pressure of the aggregation of the origin path.

In the Origin World, the primordial cosmic will was very active, precisely because it had the assistance of supreme rules, which helped to share some of the pressure.

Even a tiny bit of it is the last straw that breaks the camel's back for the primordial cosmic will, enabling it to consciously communicate with life within the universe and exert influence on the outside world.

But the supreme rule will doesn't receive this treatment; all the pressure from the entire source world rests on it, leaving it with only instinct.

For example, if you receive too much knowledge at once, you'll be overwhelmed and become an idiot, leaving only instinct. But if there were some super-powered chip to distribute some of the pressure of knowledge, you could still free up a bit of willpower to function on your own.

The most important things in the Origin World are naturally the various primordial Daos.

True gods and professionals are not without meaning to the world, or rather, the supreme rules; they even play a unique role.

Lu Yunhe originally wanted to move away from Dream City, but now it seems there's no need for that.

Using a third-person perspective, Lu Yunhe quickly realized something.

Originally, he was only interested in the professional paths of this world, but now it seems that the supreme rules and will within it are equally extraordinary.

Since he also possessed a complete source world, which could serve as a valuable reference, he immediately recognized the problem.

"It's a good opportunity to study cause and effect and destiny," Lu Yunhe thought to himself.

The principles of cause and effect and destiny are powerful, but they are very difficult to cultivate.

It is probably because the mainstream cultivation method in the Hunyuan Space is to prove the Dao through force that the functions of these two Great Daos have never been apparent.

Basically, they are all forcibly turned into skills and manipulated for use, without the true cause and effect or the elusive nature of fate.

However, the Great Dao of Origin is very prominent in this world, which is also his opportunity, since his trump card is not with the Demon God.

Having figured this out, Lu Yunhe had no choice but to enter the city of the Northern Wilderness.

Unlike inland cities, the city of the Northern Wilderness is close to the Northern Sea, which not only gives rise to many marine features but also fosters a number of professions related to the sea.

Ocean, the underworld, storms...

Many professionals make their living from the sea, not only by extracting resources from the ocean but also by honing their skills and character along the way...

The entire Northern Sea is incredibly vast, practically infinite for professionals below the demigod level.

Just like civilizations that cannot exceed the speed of light, the universe is infinitely large to them, and they cannot catch up with its boundaries.

The vast ocean is also a synonym for wealth, but unfortunately, this wealth is hidden very deeply and is not easily discovered by ordinary people.

The entire Northern Wilderness City is located in a small corner of the Northern Sea, and due to its limited strength, it dares not venture too far in.

Even so, thanks to its proximity to the Northern Sea and the entire Desolate Realm, the Northern Wilderness City became the largest city in the Desolate Realm, even capable of supporting cultivation at the Legendary Realm level.

It is only because Earl Green is not weak and has an unspeakable hidden identity that he is able to firmly hold onto this resource. If it were a weaker legendary realm cultivator, he would probably be driven away directly.

As Lu Yunhe watched the professionals coming and going, the whole city was filled with a sense of unrestrained and carefree enjoyment. After all, even for professionals, going out to sea was dangerous, and they might be buried in the ocean one day. Naturally, they valued enjoying themselves in the moment.

For this reason, the Northern Wilderness City is one of the few cities with an overflowing prison.

Even when Lu Yunhe passed by, he saw two groups fighting on the roadside, and some onlookers who were caught in the crossfire stepped in to teach them a lesson.

In the world of cultivators, watching a spectacle requires strength, but those who create the spectacle must also be strong, otherwise they might end up being unable to even defeat the spectators.

Seeing this, Lu Yunhe couldn't help but smile slightly. Perhaps only when one is weak can one enjoy such emotions.

Once you become powerful enough, even the ocean will seem like a small pond to a strong person, and they might even find the world too small.

"Did you know? It's said that Old Wang and his group ran into the Northern Underworld Palace again."

"Are you sure, or is it just a mirage?"

"It's true, Lao Wang and his men have made preparations again and want to go deeper into the Northern Sea."

"Going deep into the Northern Sea... courting death..."

Hearing the chatter around him, Lu Yunhe felt a surge of curiosity. Since waiting here was pointless, he might as well go out for a walk. After all, Earl Green wasn't going to run away.

Once curiosity arises, the web of cause and effect and destiny is laid out, and the thoughts of the strong can truly influence the workings of heaven and earth.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this mirage..."

Lu Yunhe curiously approached, and even without deliberately using any abilities, he still exuded an aura that was hard to resist.

Soon these people told him everything they knew, and even thoughtfully pointed out a way for Lu Yunhe.

Lu Yunhe then arrived at the location of "Old Wang," whom everyone had mentioned. At that moment, Old Wang was recruiting new crew members in preparation for searching for the so-called "Northern Underworld Palace."

Lu Yunhe then boarded the ship. Searching for something unknown in the vast ocean was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

However, as long as one knows of the existence of this needle, one can manipulate fate and, through that barely perceptible connection, truly find this needle in the ocean.

In the world of fantasy, fate plays a significant role, after all, fantasy is woven by fate.

Upon reaching the Legendary Realm and fully entering the gates of the Dream Path, Lu Yunhe began to utilize the talents of his professional path to help him comprehend the Great Dao.

To go further, a solid foundation is essential. It's not enough for him to simply attain the position of a true god; seizing the core of this world is to make it easier for him to comprehend the fundamental Dao.

Lu Yunhe didn't know where the "Northern Underworld Palace" was, nor did he know the truth about it, but since this "Old Wang" claimed to have seen it, he was naturally also involved in the fate of the matter.

"If I could see the Heavenly Palace one more time, I would be willing to die," Old Wang, looking like a one-eyed pirate, said to the recruiter with a burning passion.

"Grant your wish!"

Lu Yunhe infiltrated the fleet and began writing scripts for the captain.

Captain Wang was only a Silver-level warrior. Although he was strong, he was completely powerless against Lu Yunhe and had no idea that he had become a puppet.

With hope in his heart, Captain Wang set sail once again, heading towards the Northern Sea.

Along the way, the group overcame numerous obstacles, as if they had gone through eighty-one tribulations. If it weren't for Lu Yunhe constantly manipulating fate...

Captain Wang, who acted on a whim, had long since perished at sea.

"Well, so this is what fate is all about—having a powerful figure protecting you." Lu Yunhe couldn't help but stammer as he watched Captain Wang's performance along the way.

He thought these people could really create miracles, but it turned out they were just a group of ordinary professionals.

Fate and cause and effect, in essence, still need a powerful force to support them.

"From this perspective, it seems that there is indeed no difference from other original paths; the real power lies with the cultivators."

Through the workings of fate, Lu Yunhe once again clearly understood the core of proving the Dao through strength: there are no shortcuts, only absolute power.

The power of cause and effect, the power of fate, the power of dreams... ultimately, they all need to be applied to force.

Lu Yunhe used the people on the ship to comprehend the core of the power, and soon the ship sailed into a shimmering sea.

Wisps of mist appeared and disappeared, casting a hazy glow over the entire world, and within those mists stood a magnificent palace.

"A mirage!"

……

Chapter 858 Demigod Inheritance

"The Heavenly Palace, it's the Heavenly Palace..."

"Finally found."

"I feel like a legend is beckoning me."

……

Looking at the celestial palace shrouded in clouds and mist in the distance, the professionals on the ship immediately became eager.

If they could actually find the legendary Northern Underworld Palace, even just some remnants, it would be enough to completely change their fate.

However, what they didn't notice was that the hazy mist was not far away, and the faint water vapor had long been mixed with some special energy.

"Heading towards the Heavenly Palace."

Captain Wang roared, almost losing his mind, and sped towards the distant Heavenly Palace.

Looking at a mountain can make a horse run itself to death; the sea of ​​desire is an abyss of ten thousand fathoms!

In this boundless sea, the distant sky seems close at hand, but in reality, it is the ends of the earth, almost a world apart.

If you lack the strength, even if you run your whole life, you will never touch it.

If you are strong enough, then even the ends of the earth are within reach.

"A mirage, no, it's a dimensional projection..."

Lu Yunhe's figure had already disappeared into the ship, and with a single step, he instantly crossed the boundless sea.

The magnificent palaces and pavilions, seemingly built in the heavens, sometimes appeared real, and sometimes became hazy and illusory, as Lu Yunhe approached.

It looked like a mirage, but Lu Yunhe saw through it at a glance.

It was some kind of force that projected the scene from another dimension onto the surface of the sea.

Because the entity exists in another dimension, it is impossible to approach it through normal means.

Besides the dimensional worlds that arise from the Primordial Dao, many complete datasets also contain spatial fragments and smaller dimensional worlds.

These spatial fragments, these dimensional micro-worlds, are either naturally formed by heaven and earth, or artificially created.

For example, those in the Legendary Realm have the ability to create small worlds. If the master dies, the world's origin will lose its support and gradually retreat towards the dimension, eventually merging completely into the world.

“Since it’s a dimensional space, then its predecessor must have been at least at the legendary level, or even higher.” Lu Yunhe examined the spatial projection in front of him.
