Chapter 355: Breaking All Techniques with Force?

Luo Feng, as an Invincible Existence, had scarcely any opponents below the Primordial Level. If he relied on the Primordial Bloodline, he could even escape the Cage at any moment! Naturally, Luo Feng’s mindset had also changed.

In the future, what he pursued was a better method of ‘escaping the Cage’!

As for the cultivators of the Dark Sacred Realm, Luo Feng was willing to offer some assistance. Toward Divine King Yanqu and Divine King Lei Sha from his homeland Source World, he also held goodwill.

“Sit.” Luo Feng gestured to the side.

Divine King Yanqu and Divine King Lei Sha were flattered and took their seats nearby. In the current setting, their strength was indeed somewhat lacking.

“Yanqu, Lei Sha, have you encountered any confusion in your cultivation? Speak freely. Even if I cannot answer, I believe others present can provide some guidance,” Luo Feng said with a smile.

Yanqu and Lei Sha indeed had many doubts. In the past, when their strength was low, they had no qualification to consult peak-level existences.

“I also exchanged for a High-Rank Primordial Bloodline, the ‘Heavenly Eye Thunder Beast’, but the gains from tapping its potential have been minimal,” Lei Sha said immediately.

“What methods did you use to tap its potential?” Divine Emperor Ji Ke asked. As the cultivator in the Dark Sacred Realm who had gone the farthest in excavating bloodlines, he was naturally qualified to guide Lei Sha.

Lei Sha began explaining at once: “I tried guiding it using various thunder forces…”

……

In the garden before the Cave Dwelling, over a hundred thousand cultivators finally saw Divine Lord Luo He appear.

“He’s out.”

“Divine Lord Luo He has appeared.”

The cultivators were visibly excited. They saw a black-haired, black-robed man step out first, followed by Dao Lord Long Jiu and Divine Emperor Ji Ke. Behind them came Po Xiu, Divine Emperor Baiyin, Chizheng, Yanqu, and Lei Sha.

Suddenly, all the cultivators felt an incomparably terrifying aura emanating from the black-haired, black-robed man.

Boom~~~~

Heaven and earth trembled! The rules twisted! The surrounding space grew dim and gloomy!

Every cultivator felt that before this man, they could be torn apart with ease.

Luo Feng released his aura briefly and then withdrew it! Instantly, all the cultivators present fell silent, not daring to make the slightest noise.

“I am Luo Feng.”

The black-haired, black-robed man looked at them and said with a smile, “My cultivation time has not been long, so I cannot claim to answer all your questions. Today, I will only share some of my own cultivation experiences, hoping to offer you some inspiration.”

“Thank you, Divine Lord Luo He.” All the cultivators bowed respectfully.

They all understood—

An Invincible Existence had no obligation to guide them. If he did, it was a great favor!

“Begin asking your questions,” Luo Feng said.

“May I ask, Divine Lord Luo He, aside from the known ‘ultimate bloodline awakening’, are there other ways to escape the Cage?” a cultivator asked.

Luo Feng glanced at Dao Lord Long Jiu beside him.

They had already discussed this beforehand—questions regarding bloodlines would be answered by Divine Emperor Ji Ke, many hidden matters by Dao Lord Long Jiu, and Dao comprehension by Luo Feng.

“There are three primary ways to escape the Cage,” Dao Lord Long Jiu said. “First, ultimate bloodline awakening. Second, to control the Source World Origin and directly become the Master of the Source World. Third, to break all techniques with force—ascending from the Half-Primordial Level in a single step to become a Primordial Lord.”

“If one seeks to control the Source World Origin, what methods are there?” another cultivator asked.

“The Source World Origin contains multiple Origin Paths. As long as one leaves a soul imprint on more than half of these paths, there is hope of controlling the Source World,” Dao Lord Long Jiu said with a smile. “A Source World has at least nine Origin Paths. Therefore, one must cultivate at least five Origin Paths to the Second Stage Divine King.”

“At least five Origin Paths? And they must align with the Source World’s paths?” Everyone present knew how difficult this was.

Specializing in a single path was the most common.

Dual cultivation of two paths was already much rarer. In the Dark Sacred Realm, there were only about a thousand peak-level existences.

Cultivating three paths simultaneously? Even rarer. Dao Lord Long Jiu, who cultivated three paths to the Half-Primordial Level, had even drawn the attention of a Primordial Lord, who personally helped him choose a compatible Source World and arranged his reincarnation.

Even if one reached the Half-Primordial Level in their proficient paths, advancing in unfamiliar paths to the Second Stage Divine King remained extremely difficult.

“I specialize in the Life Path, Destruction Path, and Life-and-Death Path. But a Source World will not simultaneously contain all three,” Luo Feng knew this clearly.

One must comprehend at least five Origin Paths present within the Source World—and all must reach at least the Second Stage Divine King.

Even across an entire vast world cluster, it would be difficult to find a single such individual.

“Besides mastering more than half the Origin Paths, there is another method—the Faith Method,” Dao Lord Long Jiu said. “Spread faith within the Source World. When every living being in that world believes you are its master, the Source World Origin’s consciousness will also acknowledge you. However, the difficulty of spreading faith surpasses that of mastering more than half the Origin Paths!”

“Are there any other ways to become the Master of the Source World?” another cultivator asked.

“If you were born in a Source World, even after escaping the Cage, you would not be rejected by it,” Dao Lord Long Jiu said with a smile. “If you rely on a Primordial Bloodline to become a World-level Primordial Lifeform, you can gradually refine the Source World Origin over a long time. Or, if you break all techniques with force and directly become a Primordial Lord, refining your home Source World Origin would be instantaneous.”

Everyone present understood.

Either rely on methods—such as mastering more than half the Origin Paths or using the Faith Method—to control the Source World.

Or rely on strength! Once one became a World-level Primordial Lifeform or a Primordial Lord, they could refine their home Source World.

“How does one break all techniques with force?” another cultivator asked.

Divine Emperor Ji Ke and Dao Lord Long Jiu both looked at Luo Feng.

Luo Feng said, “Senior Yuan and the others have said that once one comprehends a Primordial-Level Origin Path, one gains the highest level of power and can break all techniques with force—becoming the most powerful Primordial Lifeform.”

“We have long comprehended ‘Half-Primordial Level Origin Paths’ and feel they are already complete. Adding even a little more feels redundant. How then can we comprehend a ‘Primordial-Level Origin Path’?” a cultivator asked in confusion.

“The three paths to becoming a Primordial Lifeform—bloodline awakening, becoming the Master of the Source World, and breaking all techniques with force. Breaking all techniques with force is the hardest,” Luo Feng said.

“At the God Emperor stage, cultivation is still a process of groping in the darkness, but with each improvement, one can feel their strength increasing,” Luo Feng said. “Moreover, this exploration is still within the Cage, so it is relatively smooth.”

“But transitioning from a Half-Primordial Origin Path to a Primordial-Level Origin Path… is a leap from inside the Cage to outside it!”

“On the foundation of a Half-Primordial Path, adding more profundity brings no sense of increased strength. One cannot tell whether their exploration is right or wrong,” Luo Feng said. “Without strength increasing, one can only grope blindly. That is true ‘cultivation in the dark’. One must, in that darkness, discover a complete Primordial-Level Origin Path.”

Luo Feng looked at the cultivators present. “In my view, if you cannot comprehend more than seventy percent of a High-Rank Primordial Bloodline, then do not even think about breaking all techniques with force.”

All the cultivators were stunned.

They had just been imagining this path.

The highest difficulty? Blind exploration in darkness? But perhaps, with enough luck, they could succeed?

“If one can comprehend seventy percent of a High-Rank Primordial Bloodline, they could directly become a High-Rank Primordial Lifeform,” a cultivator said.

“There is no luck in breaking all techniques with force.”

Luo Feng looked at them. “Comprehending at least seventy percent of a High-Rank Primordial Bloodline is merely, in my view, the first requirement. As for truly breaking all techniques with force—even I do not know how far I am from it. The requirements are likely far higher than what I have stated.”

Because he had studied many Low-Rank Primordial Bloodlines and several High-Rank Primordial Bloodlines, Luo Feng had already developed a certain understanding of Primordial Lifeforms that had escaped the Cage.

He had even studied the Blood-Red Scale of the Star Tower using the Book of Wisdom and the Eye of Life and Death!

Luo Feng vaguely… formed a realization.

Once one comprehends a Primordial-Level Origin Path, they gain the highest level of power. Therefore, such a path should not be inferior to the bloodline profundities of a Primordial Ancestor—nor inferior to the profundity of that blood-red scale from the Star Tower.

Luo Feng knew exactly what level that blood-red scale belonged to.

If a Primordial-Level Origin Path stood at the same level—

Then his own Half-Primordial Life-and-Death Path was still unimaginably far from it.

“I have a vague idea of what level a Primordial-Level Origin Path is. But for now, I can only look up at it from afar,” Luo Feng knew how far he still had to go.

In his view, the threshold of comprehending seventy percent of a High-Rank Primordial Bloodline was already set very low—to make most cultivators abandon such unrealistic hopes.

If one could not even understand a High-Rank Primordial Bloodline, yet still dreamed of breaking all techniques with force—it was simply a waste of time!

……

This Dao discussion lasted for three days.

Regarding methods to escape the Cage and various confusions about cultivation paths, Luo Feng, Divine Emperor Ji Ke, and Dao Lord Long Jiu all provided answers. Luo Feng mainly addressed questions related to the Life Path and Destruction Path; for other paths, he frankly admitted his lack of expertise.

Po Xiu, Divine Emperor Baiyin, Chizheng, and many other peak-level existences also shared their insights one by one.

Luo Feng, Dao Lord Long Jiu, and Divine Emperor Ji Ke listened attentively as well—after all, each had their own specialties.

After three days, the discussion ended.

The cultivators left fully satisfied, having gained much from the exchange.

“These three days of Dao discussion have broadened my horizons as well.”

Luo Feng returned to the Large Hunyuan Hall. “There were even cultivators who personally witnessed the war between the native Primordial Lifeform faction and the cultivator faction.”

His own cultivation time was relatively short, while others had lived far longer and experienced much more.

Some cultivators originally came from the Beigu World Cluster.

Later, when the Beigu World Cluster fell, cultivators from certain Source Worlds were relocated to the Dark Sacred Realm.

There were also cultivators who had witnessed their home Source Worlds being devoured by native Primordial Lifeforms. Those cultivators had no choice but to immediately destroy their avatars in their home worlds—becoming wanderers without a home Source World.

“It sounds like the cultivator faction is completely at a disadvantage.”

“Senior Yuan and the others have also released more treasures for exchange,” Luo Feng thought.

In the early days, the Large Hunyuan Hall of the Dark Sacred Realm had relatively few items available for exchange. But as the war situation worsened, more and more treasures had been made available.

“I still have over thirty million merits unspent. I should take a good look at what treasures Senior Yuan and the others have prepared.”

……

Inside the Large Hunyuan Hall.

“To view all treasures once requires one billion Primordial Crystals. Quite expensive.” Luo Feng paid casually.

A female puppet lifeform immediately approached him. She had short silver hair, golden eyes, and a faintly enchanting smile.

“Cultivator Luo Feng, I will guide you through all the treasures of the Large Hunyuan Hall,” the silver-haired woman said. “What would you like to see first?”

“Let’s see the Primordial prisoners,” Luo Feng said with interest. He wanted to observe these living High-Rank Primordial Lifeforms.

“The Large Hunyuan Hall currently imprisons over thirty thousand High-Rank Primordial Lifeforms. These are all spoils captured by our cultivator faction,” the silver-haired woman said. “I will guide you through them one by one.”
