Chapter 713 A Battle to the Death! The Power of the Soul Domain
Within the boundless primordial space, two figures moved at incredible speed across the spacetime map, their speed far surpassing even the soul teleportation system of the underworld.
Although it wasn't the first time he had experienced it, Qin Ming was still amazed.
The Star Lord's mastery of spacetime is truly formidable. Even in his Netherworld Domination state, he still employs the techniques of the Great Dao of Spacetime and relies on the spacetime network left behind by the Star Lord.
But it's still far inferior.
The two are not even on the same level.
The starlight carried him, and with each step he took, he traversed countless times of time and space.
And this was only with an extremely weak clone of the Star Lord; if it were the real Star Lord, the speed would probably be even faster and more astonishing.
The sheer power of her ability to collect all the high-level Chaos Origin lifebloodlines and world-class Chaos Origin bloodlines is simply beyond comprehension.
"The distance from the Dark Source World Cluster to the battlefield isn't far. We're about to enter the battlefield, so you need to be prepared."
""
"The Star Lord spoke."
"Mingzi!"
Qin Ming nodded slightly, his expression becoming increasingly solemn.
This battle is crucial for him. If he can successfully block the attacks of many naturally born chaotic beings and take the opportunity to kill one of the progenitors, then he will soar to the sky!
The Banner of Ten Thousand Souls will undergo another transformation, thus establishing itself at the Lord level.
But what if we fail?
Its fate was extremely tragic. Even if it had successfully withstood the attack, it would have been the same if it hadn't killed a Primordial Ancestor to allow the Myriad Soul Banner to evolve.
The cultivators' territory will inevitably be broken through once again, and the Underworld will be exposed to the sight of all forces in the entire infinite primordial space.
This is a highly anticipated war.
For the lords, their protection of the cultivators' camp stemmed more from selflessness and from the moral principles they upheld under Yuan's leadership.
Because of the Yuan Dynasty, although the seven lords may have differing opinions on certain matters, they cooperate seamlessly with each other, even though their own paths are public and they are united against external forces.
They are providing shelter!
But for Qin Ming, it was far more complicated than that.
He was naturally willing to protect the territory of cultivators.
However, due to the Netherworld, the countless cultivators in the cultivator realm, as well as the numerous source worlds and billions of worlds, are the root of the Netherworld's growth.
That's the source of his strength!
This was something not only he knew, but also the seven lords. If it were exposed during the great battle, almost all the Hunyuan Ancestors would be able to discover it.
That would be dangerous!
In the original timeline, Luo Feng joined the battlefield after breaking through to become a lord.
Although it possesses the unique characteristics of the Dao of Life and Death, such as the ability to quickly restore other lords and its powerful strength, it killed many ancestors in the first wave of war and achieved considerable results.
However, the Infinite Ancestor quickly persuaded more Ancestors to join the war.
More than a hundred Hunyuan Ancestors joined forces!
Luo Feng was able to kill the five progenitors by using his source destruction, that is, by self-destruction, forcing the war to stop once again and the two sides to truly cease hostilities.
But for myself, it might be difficult!
Ultimately, Qin Ming is still only a world-level Chaos Source. Even if he can participate in wars between lords through various means, his strength is definitely at the bottom among the lords.
The same applies to the primordial, undifferentiated life form.
Only by transforming the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls once again and allowing the Underworld to continue to grow stronger can it truly gain a foothold.
Therefore, the first battle is of paramount importance.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself in this battle. Just support us and we will do our best to kill at least one, or even several, of the progenitors."
Xingmang looked at Qin Ming.
"Your talent and strength far surpass mine. As long as you remain steadfast, we will have nothing to fear from any force. Even now, you are capable of protecting the entire cultivator realm."
Without Qin Ming saying a word, Xingmang guessed what Qin Ming was thinking.
Qin Ming had also told these things to the seven lords.
"I see."
Qin Ming nodded slightly.
Xingmang's expression returned to calm, and he continued on his way without saying anything more.
The Infinite Chaos Space is vast and boundless, and the 3,600 world groups of cultivators represent the region with the highest density of source worlds within the Infinite Chaos Space.
This is also the world they are trying their best to protect.
In even more distant regions, there are many world clusters, very remote and far away.
For example, there's a region that's even larger than 3,600 world clusters. This region contains only one world cluster.
The remoteness and sparseness indicate the difficulty of guarding the town.
But why is this happening?
Are these areas naturally like this?
The Star Lord knew better than anyone that the reason these areas were so sparse was because they had been devoured by naturally occurring chaotic life forms!
How were the more than one hundred Primordial Ancestors of Hunyuan, as well as the millions of world-class Hunyuan and countless advanced Hunyuan, born?
Naturally, it will continue to devour!
The cultivators' territory is nothing more than the area left over after they've been devoured.
It is an area that the seven lords have tried their best to protect.
But now, the naturally formed chaotic life forms have set their sights on this region, this most fertile region.
If it is breached.
With the three thousand six hundred Origin Worlds completely devoured, at least a dozen, or even dozens, of Primordial Ancestors of Chaos Origin will likely be born!
This is a long time.
The living environment for cultivators will become extremely harsh.
Having witnessed the rise of lords once before, they are unlikely to give them a second chance.
For Qin Ming.
This is a battle for survival!
Without countless source worlds, what is the point of the underworld's existence?
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A violent tremor resounded, spacetime vibrated like boiling water, and within this endless boiling water were seventy-three terrifying figures, unleashing all sorts of supreme powers.
Under its terrifying impact, countless source worlds within an endlessly vast area were instantly blasted apart.
"What happened?"
"Why did the cultivator faction suddenly enslave so many world-class Chaos Sources?"
"They are all world-level Chaos Origin beings from within the Tai Xuan World Group, recently defeated and killed by the Starlight Lord! More than a dozen of them have perished in my clan!"
"At least four thousand world-level Chaos Origin beings have appeared in the entire Tai Xuan World Group, and they are extremely powerful and fearless. This is abnormal."
While the progenitors maintained their high-intensity bursts of power and suppressed the seven lords, they also communicated rapidly with each other.
They have no choice but to pay attention.
The reason why naturally born chaotic life forms can overpower cultivators is because of their sheer number.
Without a numerical advantage, naturally occurring Chaotic Origin Lifeforms are at an absolute disadvantage among their peers, forcing them to proceed with caution.
.
Even the weakest of the seven lords is among the top twenty in terms of combat power in the entire Infinite Chaos Space!
"Mother of Time and Space, look what has happened!"
A giant serpent, whose body could expand and contract infinitely, roared at a strange beast with countless sharp claws.
"Suppress the starlight first!"
The Mother of Time was enraged. Each of her claws could easily grab and tear apart timelines. Her body was deeply integrated with the river of time and space, allowing her to disappear into the past and future.
But at this moment, he was in a very sorry state.
Each of the sharp claws kept breaking and then reassembling.
Even when they joined forces with the Infinite Serpent, the Mother of Time and Space was still completely suppressed by the Star Lord, and their battlefields were far more than just this one place.
In the endless timeline, in the past and the future, there are all sorts of figures fighting against it, making it breathless.
When the Star Lord comprehended the first Chaotic Origin Spacetime Dao, it was still able to suppress it.
But when Xingmang comprehended the second Chaotic Origin Spacetime Dao, let alone suppress it, it could only struggle frantically by relying on its own immortality.
It is no exaggeration to say that the other progenitors had a relatively easy time on the battlefield, suppressing the seven lords with their overwhelming numerical advantage, but it was the one that was suppressed in the opposite way.
The starlight is too intense!
They're so powerful it's practically unreasonable.
At this point, how could it dare to be distracted by investigating?
"Let others investigate! The cultivator community is only so big; whatever happened can be found out quickly!"
The Infinite Serpent paused for a moment; he knew all too well the power of Starlight.
Of the more than one hundred naturally born Primordial Ancestors, some also possessed spacetime abilities, though not as powerful as the Mother of Spacetime.
Even as they conversed, their hands never stopped moving, with various highest-level powers working together to completely envelop the seven lords.
The seven lords' main battle avatars are struggling to cope.
Any lord among them is at the very top level in battles of the same rank.
But even if they are strong, they only have seven people.
Faced with enemies ten times their own strength, the lords would have been unable to cope with the combined attack of the progenitors if it weren't for Yuan's formation, which boosted their overall power several times over.
Suddenly, space and time distorted.
The Star Lord descended upon the lords' ranks with a black-haired man dressed in imperial robes, immediately drawing the attention of all the lords.
A bad feeling rose in my heart.
Who is this?
Buzz—
The invisible domain surrounding the man in the imperial robes expanded instantly, and the strength of its domain fluctuations was simply unbelievable. Even the power of the ancestors could not completely destroy it in the first place.
Wherever the domain passed, soul fluctuations spread like a tide, instantly covering the entire battlefield and enveloping all seventy-three innate Primordial Ancestors.
"Um?!"
"Soul attack?"
"ah"
A series of piercing screams suddenly erupted, and the first to be hit were those progenitors who were born with strong physical bodies but were not good at defending their souls.
A colossal ancestor, covered in lava and as large as the primordial world, was unleashing energy.
The moment the soul realm enveloped it, it felt the endless wails of the dead flooding its mind, and it couldn't help but let out a painful howl.
Even worse off were several naturally born Primordial beings of average to low strength who had just entered the Primordial Realm.
Their souls, already battered day and night by the chaotic origins within their bloodlines, were now struck by Qin Ming's soul domain, causing their power to plummet by more than half in an instant.
Even the Primordial Ancestor, renowned for its absolute defense, trembled slightly with its flawless spherical body and let out a muffled groan.
Its defense is not just physical; its soul defense is also top-notch. Yet even he felt his strength had decreased considerably.
"court death!!"
The Infinite Serpent Ancestor let out a roar that shook the heavens and the earth. Its enormous body stretched out suddenly, countless serpent scales stood up, and a spatial blade that could tear through the void slashed wildly toward Qin Ming's soul domain.
He is one of the strongest members of the Hunyuan faction.
In terms of control over the Great Dao of Space, only the Star Lord can surpass it.
Although Qin Ming's soul domain was strange, it was still no match for it!
"kill!"
A restrained black light appeared, within which stood a figure that resembled both a human and a bird. Its aura was deathly still and restrained, yet it contained a terrifying power capable of annihilating everything. It was the Ancestor of Annihilation roaring in anger.
The Primordial Annihilation!
One of the top three progenitors of the Chaotic Origin faction, one of the Nine Emperors, and the core of its pro-war faction, he unleashed an incredibly terrifying attack the moment he realized something was wrong.
It is proficient in both the power of darkness and the power of death, which are combined into a unique power of annihilation. It can attack both the physical body and the soul at the same time, making it one of the top combat forces in the naturally formed Hunyuan faction.
At this moment, it realized that this strange soul domain would have a great impact on them.
Those who are stronger are doing alright.
Those who are weaker and not good at soul defense will inevitably face a life-or-death crisis once the lords seize an opportunity!
The seventy-three naturally born Primordial Ancestors reacted instantly.
Even though a few of them were still unstable due to the soul impact, they were, after all, ancestral beings who had lived through countless reincarnations. They instantly suppressed the intense pain in their souls and unleashed the full power of their Hunyuan Dao.
Seventy-three distinct yet intertwined and complementary Great Daos of Hunyuan, like seventy-three divine mountains spanning the heavens and earth, crashed down upon Qin Ming.
"Be careful!"
Wu Lan let out a deafening roar, and his body, which was comparable in size to the Origin World, suddenly took a step forward, blocking Qin Ming's path.
Yuan also snorted coldly, and the power of the formation rapidly activated.
Even though Yuan's formation had initially blocked and weakened the attacks, the immense power of the attacks still landed on Wu Lan's body instantly.
Wu Lan's entire body was operating at full power, and countless layers of indestructible defensive runes appeared on his body, which forcefully withstood most of the combined attack coming from the front.
Even so, various attacks and attacks continued to bombard us.
"Nine heads!"
With a low shout, Qin Ming summoned a colossal creature that instantly appeared beneath his feet. Its nine heads roared deafeningly, and its massive body shielded Qin Ming tightly.
Even so, there was still a force that could ignore the formation, ignore Wu Lan's attack, ignore the power of the Nine-Headed Ancestor, and directly bombard Qin Ming, penetrating into Qin Ming's body.
This is the highest level of power!
The abilities of the primordial ancestor of life were too complex and numerous.
Just as Qin Ming's soul domain was impossible to defend against, so too were the attacks of several progenitors.
Only by enduring hardship can we survive.
Without the strength of a lord, one is simply not qualified to enter the battlefield!
"Ruler of the Underworld!"
Qin Ming grunted, as the endless power of the entire underworld surged into his body, desperately withstanding the repeated attacks. Even though his body was damaged in many ways, it was rapidly recovering under the influx of the underworld's essence.
Huge gashes appeared on his body, soaking Qin Ming's imperial robes in blood, but they held firmly in place.
"Qin Ming held on."
Although the force of the attack had been reduced to its limit by multiple layers, Qin Ming managed to withstand it!
He survived the berserk attack of the seventy-three progenitors!
"kill!
