Soul Dominator of the Devouring Star

Chapter 667 The Inheritance Beyond the Source World, God King Second Realm

(Latest update: Devouring Star: Soul Domination)

The submission of Emperor Qing and the Yanfeng Ancestor was not unexpected for Qin Ming.

A God-Emperor level powerhouse is one who might not appear even in a single reincarnation era in the Origin World, and none of such powerhouses are fools.

Perhaps they didn't realize the situation at first, but when they saw the millions of Netherworld war beasts, unless they intended to completely abandon the Origin Continent, submission was only a matter of time.

The underworld, Fengdu City.

On the throne, Qin Ming looked down at the two people who had come together, his expression calm.

Having two God Emperor-level powerhouses join him was naturally a good thing for him. The rise of the Underworld was imminent, and conquering the surrounding source worlds required a large number of powerful individuals.

Di Qing is a god-emperor who achieved godhood in this era of reincarnation, and his talent is beyond doubt.

However, the Ancestor of Flame Wind was a late-stage God Emperor who had attained enlightenment. He was considered a powerful figure even in the Dark Holy Land, and his strength was no weaker than that of the Old Demon of Time and Space.

However, the underworld will not give him the green light either.

"Have you decided to pledge allegiance to the underworld and accept its judgment?"

Qin Ming looked at the two of them, his voice booming.

On both sides, high-ranking figures from the underworld, such as the Lord of Chaos City and the Mountain Guest, all had an avatar appear, curiously looking at the two below. The Time-Space Old Demon, the Two Realms Palace Master, and the Myriad Laws Pavilion Master were much more complicated.

If they hadn't defected early, they would probably be the ones standing below now.

"yes!"

"Then enter the Mirror of Karma! If your merits outweigh your sins, you may directly join the Underworld and become a member of my Underworld. If your sins outweigh your merits, then you will be punished according to the 'Black Laws of Fengdu,' and you will enter the Underworld after your sins have been atoned for."

Looking at the two with determined gazes, Qin Ming said calmly.

They were the main force fighting against the Underworld before, especially the Flame Wind Ancestor who did a lot of outrageous things. Even if they are accepted, it is impossible to let them go easily.

Emperor Qing and the Ancestor Yan Feng exchanged a glance, took a deep breath, and respectfully bowed.

"Great Emperor, I am aware of my grave sins and am willing to offer all the heritage and treasures accumulated by the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom in dozens of source worlds to the Underworld."

Among them are various inheritances I collected from billions of worlds outside the Origin World, as well as precious resources obtained from the treasure land of the Origin Continent.

I don't ask for leniency from the Underworld; I only ask to contribute my humble strength to the Underworld's growth and the development of the Origin Continent.

Ancestor Yanfeng reached out and took out a palace. This palace itself was a treasure of the late-stage God Emperor realm, containing countless worlds and being the essence of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom.

He was really going all out.

At his current level, apart from the corpses of some naturally occurring chaotic life forms used for research, other treasures are no longer of any use to him.

If they can successfully join the underworld, then everyone will be happy.

But if we fail, at least the punishment won't be too severe, and we'll still have a chance.

"Oh?"

Qin Ming's heart stirred; the treasure was not important to him.

However, he is also very interested in the inheritances outside the Source World.

If one can understand it, there will be many benefits.

The rules and cultivation systems differ among countless source worlds and billions of worlds. Every powerful individual who has just left a source world can significantly increase their strength in a short period of time.

That's the reason.

"allow!"

There was no need for formalities; he genuinely needed this, as did other powerful beings in the Underworld.

Stones from other hills, can learn.

Perhaps by comprehending the cultivation systems of other source worlds and countless worlds, one can achieve a breakthrough.

The Lord of Ten Thousand Laws looked at the Ancestor of Flame Wind and couldn't help but open his mouth. In terms of the amount of inheritance collected, he was probably the one with the most among all people.

The claim that one has mastered all methods is not an empty boast.

However, what arrived here was only an avatar of his, carrying few treasures and inheritances. At this moment, the Ancestor Yanfeng beat him to it.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

A hint of joy appeared on Yanfeng Ancestor's face. His biggest worry was that Qin Ming would not accept it!

Soon, the two retreated under the guidance of the underworld attendants and appeared in front of the first of the Ten Courts.

Di Qing walked at the very front.

call--

As the light swept across, countless images appeared within the Netherworld Platform.

From the birth of Emperor Qing to the beginning of his cultivation, and then his gradual rise to power, there are scenes of killing and fighting, as well as scenes of taking on disciples and managing a region.

The final verdict was indeed as many people had predicted.

Aside from the final confrontation with the underworld, which involved some sins, there were no major problems overall, and after a slight punishment, he passed the test.

The situation of the Progenitor of Flame Wind is much more complicated.

When he appeared before the Mirror of Karma and voluntarily released his karma and memories for anyone to investigate, an overwhelming flood of memories came rushing towards him.

He has lived too long.

The first era of reincarnation took only a very short time from its arrival to its extraordinary rise.

Overall, it's still pretty normal.

In the second Origin World Reincarnation, he actually spent most of his time outside the Origin Continent, fighting and battling in the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm.

By the time he reached the third cycle of reincarnation, his strength in the Dark Holy Realm had stagnated.

Then, he also thought of the power of faith.

He wanted to refine the Origin Continent with the power of faith and become the master of the Origin World.

After unifying the Origin Continent with absolute power, he devoted a great deal of energy to spreading his faith within it, including the virtual universe of the Underworld, the inheritance of cultivation techniques, and so on.

Even the inheritances from other source worlds, such as formations and mechanical systems, have made the entire Origin Continent unprecedentedly prosperous, with a population explosion.

Geniuses and strong individuals of all kinds emerge one after another.

However, the spread of faith did not go smoothly. It was alright on the continent of origin, but he had a hard time influencing the countless beings in the microcosm, such as true gods and void true gods.

Even though he used various means to get the true gods, void gods, and even god kings to actively spread their faith and move his idols into the microcosm, it only made a small number of beings believe in him.

Then, a dramatic scene unfolded.

The Origin World has entered the cycle of reincarnation ahead of schedule!

An incomparably powerful empire collapsed overnight!

"There is too much life, reaching the limit that the Origin Continent can support."

As Qin Ming watched the primordial world shatter in the scene, annihilating everything and returning to the primordial chaos, he sighed.

Breaking through with the power of faith is not an easy path.

The origin continent in this cycle of reincarnation is much more prosperous than the origin continent at this moment. Apart from the absence of the underworld, all kinds of measures are more complete than they are now.

Due to various measures, the population is now a thousand times larger.

But the cycle of reincarnation in the source world started almost one-fifth earlier!

Seeing this scene, the faces of the Chaos City Lord, the Mountain Guest, the Primordial Ancestor, and other high-ranking figures in the Underworld all changed drastically. The information conveyed was far too terrifying for them.

The underworld has now entered the final stage of reincarnation!

Will their actions cause the Origin Continent to be reincarnated prematurely?

Qin Ming, too, pondered in his heart.

The scene in the Mirror of Karma continued. The Ancestor of Flame Wind did not give up easily. He started anew in the next cycle of reincarnation, learning from his previous experiences.

But without a doubt, he failed again.

After repeated failures, he eventually lost all hope and abandoned his faith.

The strategy adopted towards the origin continent is to leave it to its own devices, except for establishing the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom to collect resources or dealing with any major problems.

"What a pity."

Qin Ming shook his head slightly.

In the Dark Holy Realm, the path to escape the shackles is not some top secret. Refining the Source World is definitely a path to instant success, and no one can resist its allure.

Cultivating the five different origins is too difficult; most people don't even have the chance to try.

But their paths of faith are different.

As long as you have the ability, you can give it a try.

The Ancestor of Flame Wind did not do badly in several reincarnations, checking and making up for his shortcomings time and time again, but he could not see any hope of success at all.

The light on the Mirror of Evil gradually dimmed.

The Progenitor of Flame Wind stood there, his face calm, yet a hint of relief in his eyes. The secrets of dozens of reincarnations were all laid bare under the sunlight.

He was waiting for the final result.

In the First Hall, King Qin Guang flipped through the Book of Life and Death, his brow furrowed. On both ends of the scale of good and evil, the side of sin weighed heavily down, but the side of merit was not entirely without weight.

"This case is complex and requires deliberation."

This is an unprecedented case in the underworld, and even the Ten Kings of Hell dare not make a decision lightly.

After three days and three nights of discussion, and after consulting with Qin Ming in the temple, a final decision was made.

"The progenitor of the Flame Wind has survived dozens of reincarnations, his merits and demerits are intertwined, with his sins outweighing his merits."

"His achievements: In his early years, he protected the region and established order; in his middle years, he introduced foreign heritage and promoted the prosperity of the source world; in his later years, although he left it alone, he did not carry out large-scale massacres."

However, in order to fight against the Underworld, they gathered all their strength and engaged in rampant slaughter, plunging the Origin Continent into chaos!

"Comprehensive trial—sentenced to the Fifth Court of the Howling Hell, with a sentence of one thousand years."

"After serving their sentence, if their repentance remains unchanged, they may enter the Expansion Division to explore the infinite primordial space of the underworld and serve for ten reincarnation eras before regaining their freedom."

"The treasures and heritages he offered will be accepted by the Underworld. The Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom will be taken over by the Underworld, and some of them may be returned after he has served his sentence."

After hearing all the verdicts, the Ancestor of Flame Wind showed a look of surprise and delight.

A thousand-year prison?

For an ordinary person, this would be an extremely long period of time, but for an ancient being like him who has lived through dozens of reincarnations, it would be nothing more than a blink of an eye.

With his divine emperor-level mental will, how could he fear mere punishment?

After serving his sentence, he entered the Development Division and served for ten cycles of time—this was not punishment, but an era he broke through, a possibility for him to escape his cage!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ancestor Yanfeng was filled with joy; for him, that was enough!

Go!

Qin Ming nodded slightly; this ending could be considered a happy one for everyone.

After the Ancestor Yanfeng withdrew, Qin Ming looked at the Lord of Chaos City, the Mountain Guest, and others, and then his expression became serious.

"As you all have seen, Ancestor Yanfeng implemented many policies in the Origin Continent, which is a valuable experience for us."

Next, you need to observe carefully, taking the essence and discarding the dross.

May the underworld become even stronger!

"yes!"

The Chaos City Lord, Darkness, Qianwu, Zuoshanke, and even the Ten Kings of Hell, all the high-ranking officials of the Underworld, bowed in unison, which was indeed a warning to them.

"Furthermore, the Fiery Wind Ancestor contributed numerous legacies, which represent a great opportunity for the Underworld and the Origin Continent. I will place them in the Underworld Treasury, and then exchange them for merit points!"

While the underworld may not be overflowing with powerful individuals, it is certainly teeming with talented people.

Once everything is arranged, someone will naturally take care of it.

The Lord of Chaos City may be lacking in cultivation, but his management skills have long been honed, and these matters can be entrusted to him.

. . . . . . . . . . .

Having dealt with the matters concerning Di Qing and the Ancestor Yan Feng, Qin Ming was finally able to calm down.

He returned to the World Tree, sat cross-legged, and took out the palace treasure offered by the Ancestor of Flame Wind, probing it with his consciousness.

Countless inheritances, secret techniques, and insights unfolded before him like a vast galaxy.

That was the accumulation of the Flame Wind Ancestor through dozens of reincarnation eras, from countless source worlds, from billions of worlds, from the Dark Holy Land of Nine Rivers and the Dark Holy Land.

The supreme rules of different worlds are different, and their cultivation systems vary greatly.

Some worlds revere bloodlines, some are based on faith, some ascend through mechanical means, and some cultivate the mysteries of rules.

Qin Ming absorbed all of this with great eagerness.

Ancestor Yanfeng's collection is indeed astonishing, with more than a dozen books even of the top-grade inheritance level. As for the superior inheritance, it goes without saying that it is easy to cultivate such inheritances, but it is difficult to obtain them.

These were all things he learned from his interactions with other God Emperors in the Dark Holy Realm.

Those who can reach the late stage of God Emperor through the path of enlightenment are no weaker than God Emperors of the Bloodline Flow who have reached perfection, and in terms of status, they are even a level higher.

Such beings are actually not numerous, even in the Dark Holy Realm.

The World Tree swayed slightly, and the Primordial Chaos Body operated at full power.

On the Origin Continent, many of these cultivation systems are actually impossible to cultivate and can only serve as a reference at most, but for Qin Ming, this is enough.

His soul merged with the origin of the source world, allowing him to confront the nine supreme rules and verify the cultivation paths of other worlds with the rules of the origin continent.

Time flows by in contemplation.

This is his first time going into seclusion since entering the Origin Continent!

Even when the verdicts of Emperor Qing and Yan Feng were announced, the ancestors of the Eastern Extreme Domain and the rulers of the myriad realms all surrendered without resistance. The Thunder Ancestor, relying on his treasures, broke through the encirclement and attempted to leave the Origin Continent.

Qin Ming didn't care.

None of this matters to him.

The entire Origin Continent has been completely brought under his control.

With the Underworld acting as a stabilizing force, and with many powerful individuals working together, the entire Origin Continent has entered a period of almost frenzied development.

Everything was thriving.

One year, ten years, a hundred years...

The first Genius Battle of the Origin Continent is in full swing, with billions of universe masters entering the virtual universe to fight with fervor.

With time accelerated a million times, Qin Ming sat quietly cross-legged under the World Tree, meditating and comprehending its secrets.

As the River of Oblivion surged, and the World Tree absorbed the inheritances and cultivation systems from countless worlds, Qin Ming's understanding of the six fundamental principles of life, death, soul, world, matter, and cause and effect became increasingly clear.

Even time and space are gradually being grasped.

The mysteries of the fundamental principles of life became increasingly clear to him.

In the three thousand primordial universes, he had already deduced the Great Dao of the Origin of Life to an extremely high level.

Later, on the Origin Continent, the expansion of the Underworld, the transformation of the Primordial Body, the fusion of the soul into the Origin... each advancement made his fundamental Dao of life more harmonious.

At this moment, among the six fundamental paths, the progress of the Life Fundamental Path is faster than the other six.

"I've finally reached the second level of the God King realm."
