***********************************
In the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction, the first holy land is the 'Infinite Realm,' where the Infinite Serpent Clan lives. There are more than ten members of the Infinite Serpent Clan who have reached the Hunyuan Ancestor-level.
The second holy land is the 'Giant God Realm,' a special world no less extraordinary than the 'Infinite Realm.'
The lifeforms born here emerge as World-Level Hunyuan lifeform from the moment of their birth! Their physiques rank among the most massive within the Innate Hunyuan lifeforms Faction.
The race nurtured in the Giant God Realm is known as the Giant God Clan, the second-largest faction after the Infinite Serpent Clan, with ten Hunyuan Ancestor level existences.
Hum!
Wuxian She Hunyuan Ancestor, Nirvana Hunyuan Ancestor, Yanhuo Hunyuan Ancestor, and Wu Jin Hunyuan Ancestor- each projected a Clone with a thought, descending upon the Giant God Realm.
The Giant God Realm teemed with thousands of colossal creatures, the smallest of which still measured three percent the size of an Origin World!
Among them there were even behemoths no smaller than Lord Wu Lan, who gazed distantly at the four clones from afar!
"Wuxian She and the others have arrived. I heard they've been at a disadvantage in their clashes with the practitioners' faction!"
"Now they've come begging for our help!" The massive beings exchanged mental messages, gloating over their misfortune.
The Giant God Clan and the Infinite Serpent Clan harbored deep-seated conflicts.
However, the most revered figure among the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction at present was the Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor- not only due to his overwhelming strength but also his immortality.
"Brother Giant!" The four clones arrived before an immense figure.
He is a towering beast standing upright, his body covered in black-gold scales.
In addition to his two arms, he possessed a pair of massive wings!
Even seated, he is much larger than an entire origin world in size. In terms of sheer physique, he ranked among the top three across the entire Infinite Hunyuan Space, several times larger than Lord Wu Lan.
This is Giant God Emperor, one of the Nine Sovereigns of the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction, and the leader of the Giant God Clan.
Among the sovereigns who had abstained from the recent war, Giant God Emperor was the foremost.
In terms of frontal combat prowess, he stood at the pinnacle of the Nine Sovereigns.
However, his survivability is relatively weaker, and several practitioners' Lords- particularly Yuan- could threaten him.
Thus, his status within the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction is considerably lower than that of the Wuxian She Hunyuan Ancestor.
"I heard that you lost," Giant Emperor remarked with interest as he observed the four.
"A new Lord has emerged. The eight Lords working together are troublesome to deal with," the Wuxian She Hunyuan Ancestor replied.
"We cannot win as things stand, so we require the assistance of you three."
Giant Emperor gave a slight nod, and two terrifying presences manifested beside him.
A flying giant bird descended nearby, its form wreathed in black mist that seemed to condense countless calamities. Engaging it in battle would inevitably invite endless disaster.
The other was an fat giant beast, its sleek fur shifting through endless hues, each strand containing boundless Void. It grinned at the four clones.
"Black Tide Hunyuan Ancestor, Hunyuan Beast Ancestor," the four clones greeted.
Black Tide Hunyuan Ancestor and Hunyuan Beast Ancestor are among the Nine Sovereigns.
The most important thing is that, they had no affiliated race- and each of them are a unique existence.
Across the Infinite Hunyuan Space, most such unique beings did not consider themselves as a part of the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction.
However, these two, owing to their close ties with Giant Emperor, tacitly acknowledged their alignment with the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction.
However, they rarely took action.
"You all understand- this is a battle we cannot afford to lose," the Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor said gravely.
"If we exhaust the full strength of our races and still lose to the practitioners' faction, the deterrence of our Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction will diminish drastically!"
"I dislike war," Giant Emperor murmured with a sigh.
He preferred observing the myriad phenomena of the Infinite Hunyuan Space, witnessing the conflicts and grudges of its denizens. He is content to remain a bystander.
"The Giant God Clan's resources have never been lacking," the Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor pressed.
"Even now, at this critical situation, you refuse to participate? The practitioners' faction is trampling over us!"
Nirvana Hunyuan Ancestor, Wu Jin Hunyuan Ancestor, and Yanhuo Hunyuan Ancestor all fixed their gazes on Giant God Emperor.
The Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction is divided into two major factions- one centered around the Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor, the other around Giant God Emperor.
"I understand. This battle cannot be lost," Giant Emperor conceded.
"However, we will only participate in this one battle. Once it concludes, we will withdraw."
Beside him, Black Tide Ancestor and Hunyuan Beast Ancestor nodded in agreement.
"Very well," the Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor replied.
"The practitioners' faction has gained a new Lord, one who can instantly restore his companions to their peak condition. They've become far more troublesome. Once we secure victory in this battle, I will seize the opportunity to end the war."
Ending the war in defeat versus ending it in triumph- the difference is monumental.
The Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor needed to leverage the momentum of crushing the eight Lords to prove to the entire Infinite Hunyuan Space that they remained the supreme power.
"What do we know about this new Lord?" Hunyuan Beast Ancestor asked.
"If we're going to war, we must first understand our enemy thoroughly."
Hum!
A bizarre beast with countless claws crawled out from the Space-Time. Its claws could effortlessly seize strands of time.
Once fully emerged, it spoke:
"I've investigated numerous past timelines and uncovered the details of the new Lord, Luo Feng."
"Luo Feng was born in the Origin World of the Dark Holy Realm- 'Origin Continent'. Information about his Origin World is limited due to internal obstructions, but it's confirmed that his cultivation time was extremely short."
The multi-clawed beast continued, "He reached what the practitioners call the 'limit beneath the Cage' in less than 10,000 epochs. Then, in under 1,000 epochs, he ascended directly from beneath the Cage to Lord!"
"He became a Lord directly from beneath the Cage?!"
The four clones, Giant Emperor, Black Tide Ancestor, and Hunyuan Beast Ancestor were all stunned.
"Yes, I found no record of him becoming a World-Level Hunyuan lifeform. In fact, he only refined his home origin world after joining the war," the multi-clawed beast added.
"Regardless of whether he ever reached World-Level Hunyuan lifeform, are you saying he truly became a Lord in under 2,000 epochs?" Giant Emperor couldn't help but ask.
"Based on my understanding of the practitioners' system, his talent and potential surpass any previous Lord."
"What a nuisance!" The Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor also felt a headache coming on.
Watching the practitioners' faction rise right before their eyes, yet being powerless to stop it- while the Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor himself no longer needed to devour the core essence of Origin Worlds, his kin, the entire Infinite Serpent Clan... their finest sustenance was the core essence of origin world.
For the sake of his race, he could not afford to back down!
"They grow stronger, but so does our Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction!" The Nirvana Hunyuan Ancestor said calmly.
"Between our two factions, victory is still uncertain!"
One side had countless origin worlds, continuously nurturing new talents- perhaps even the birth of another Lord.
The other side had the boundless Infinit Hunyuan Space, where the emergence rate of Ancestor level existences of innate Hunyuan lifeform faction far outpaced that of practitioners' Lords.
Both factions understood that the other is their greatest rival, and thus their conflict is the fiercest.
For example, take the current Frost Peak Faction- an alliance of twelve eternal existences. While seemingly formidable, they lacked a steady influx of new power, and as an alliance, they were far from united.
In contrast, the two factions locked in the fiercest struggle are far more cohesive.
"This Lord Luo Feng is newly ascended," Giant Emperor thought before speaking.
"While he is still inexperienced, we must seize this chance to crush the practitioners' faction in one decisive strike. If we wait until he matures and grows even stronger, he will become far more troublesome."
"When do you plan to move out?" the Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor asked.
"The sooner, the better," Giant Emperor replied coolly.
Once the Hunyuan Ancestors level existences made their decision, their assembly was swift.
Led by Giant Emperor, Hunyuan Beast Ancestor, and Black Tide Hunyuan Ancestor, along with over twenty Ancestor level followers and others who had been recuperating in the rear, a total of thirty-five Ancestor level existences gathered.
"I will transport everyone," the multi-clawed beast said, swiftly carrying the thirty-five Ancestor level existences across Space-Time toward the practitioners' territory.
"I've said before- there's no need to push the practitioners too hard. If they are cornered, under enough threat, they might just produce another powerhouse! We should let them grow complacent!"
"Exactly. Even if we completely overran all their territory, so what? If the seven Lords are freed from the burden of defending their lands, they would go utterly berserk. Their hatred would drive them to relentless retaliation. The Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor is overconfident!"
"He's doing this for the sake of the Infinite Serpent Clan. The fastest way for them to grow is by devouring the core essence of origin worlds!"
"Our Giant God Clan can slowly absorb Hunyuan power. We have no need to consume core essence of origin worlds!"
The Hunyuan Ancestors debated fervently.
Giant Emperor and his two companions remained composed.
Alone, Giant Emperor had significant weaknesses- but when allied with Hunyuan Beast Ancestor and Black Tide Hunyuan Ancestor, their combined abilities eliminated all flaws, making them comparable to three united Eternal Land existences.
This was why the trio formed the second-largest faction within the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction.
"Thirty-five Ancestor level existences have set out, led by Giant Emperor."
"Truly the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction- mobilizing such terrifying force!"
At the Hunyuan Ancestor level, every lifeform emitted immense energy fluctuations- unless, beings like Luo Feng, who specialized in life principles and could conceal all traces. Otherwise, movements of Hunyuan Ancestor level existences are easily detectable by others of their tier.
The collective presence of thirty-five Ancestor level beings sent shockwaves across the Infinite Hunyuan Space.
Only the practitioners' faction and the Frost Peak Faction could withstand such an attack.
The various powers could only sigh in awe.
Though the Infinite Hunyuan Space housed many factions, none dared claim they could resist the combined forces of thirty-five Hunyuan Ancestor level beings.
"The eight Lords of the practitioners' faction are indeed fearsome, suppressing seventy-three Hunyuan Ancestor level beings and forcing the innate Hunyuan lifeform faction to deploy nearly their entire strength. With over a hundred Hunyuan Ancestor level existences, even if each of the eight Lords is formidable, they likely won't hold out!"
All factions watched this colossal clash unfold.
Within the practitioners' territory, the massive spherical form of the Chu Shi Hunyuan Ancestor floated in space.
The gathered Hunyuan Ancestors hid within its body, recovering their strength while awaiting reinforcements.
The eight Lords formed a battle formation, enveloping the entire region.
"The thirty-five Hunyuan Ancestor level existences are on their way!" Yuan gazed into the distance.
Luo Feng and the others followed his line of sight, their senses locking onto the approaching force.
"Giant Emperor and the other two are joining the battle!" Yuan's expression turned grave.
"Those three of them are- equivalent to three Eternal Land powerhouses!" Lord Xingmang frowned.
"With over a hundred Hunyuan Ancestor level existences, especially with the Nine Sovereigns at the core, their collective strength surpasses ours!"
"I will relay all possible battle scenarios from future timelines," Lord Xingmang said.
Luo Feng, Wu Lan, Jin, Mo man, Naigu, and Minghuang all felt the pressure.
The practitioners' coordination was far superior- Lord Xingmang could observe countless future timelines, his Space-Time Domain enveloping the entire battle formation, while Yuan's formations perfectly synergized each Lord's power.
In contrast, the Hunyuan Ancestor side's coordination was crude at best.
But sheer numbers tipped the scales. With over a hundred Hunyuan Ancestor level beings, especially the Nine Sovereigns as the core, their combined force remained unimaginably overwhelming.
"If we win this battle, the road ahead will be much smoother," Lord Xingmang murmured.
"We must win," Lord Jin declared, staring into the distance.
Luo Feng understood clearly- based on the Lords' simulations of countless strategies, he was the pivotal factor in this battle.
As the newly ascended Lord, the outside world knew the least about him.
This was their greatest advantage.
