Soul Dominator of the Devouring Star

Chapter 620: Conversation with Yuan! The Future of the Cycle of Reincarnation

"What do you consider merit?"

Qin Ming's eyes held a hint of scrutiny before he slowly spoke.

"Killing, redemption? Merit and sin are themselves, and the core of judgment is not personal likes or dislikes, nor power or position."

Rather, it lies in the contributions and harms done to the 'Source World'!

"The Source World?"

Both the Fire Ancestor and the God King Zongfu were taken aback.

"That's right."

Qin Ming said calmly, "The Origin World is not an inanimate object. Its will is a vast collective consciousness woven together by the consciousness of countless living beings, the laws governing the operation of all things, and even the supreme rules."

The contribution of living beings to the source world lies in promoting its prosperity and benefiting the source world; this is considered meritorious.

Conversely, acts of wanton destruction and slaughter of living beings that cause unrest damage the very foundation of the source world and are therefore sinful!

The Source World does not possess the will of the original universe; rather, it is formed by the convergence of countless life wills.

Therefore, if a person in the Source World believes in one other person, they can control the Source World.

What if a being in the Source World dislikes a person?

Like the two great nation's founders at this moment.

The Origin Continent is their home world, but they have made no contribution to it, only taking from it.

Now, in order to counter Qin Ming, they are sparing no effort to exploit the resources of the Origin Continent, leading to widespread resentment.

What are the causes and effects?

"The progenitor of the Snow Realm devoured living beings, seemingly to strengthen himself, but in reality, he was draining the pond to catch the fish and seizing the source."

In the long run, this damages the potential of the world's source, and is therefore a great sin!

"For example, if you protect living beings and maintain a peaceful land, allowing them to multiply and thrive, and civilization to be passed down, adding vitality to the source world, this is a great merit!"

Qin Ming's voice was calm, but to the two of them it was like a resounding bell, making the souls of the Fire Ancestor and the God King Zongfu tremble.

They initially thought this was merely a set of laws and rules for the underworld established by Qin Ming.

But to everyone's surprise, merits and sins were actually the source world's feedback on the behavior of the beings within it!

This completely transcends the perspective of personal grudges and power struggles.

By directly linking good and evil with the interests of the source world, the merit and sin system is given an undeniable level of importance!

"Merit, sin! So that's how it is."

Huo Zu's eyes held a clear understanding and a hint of knowing. Although he didn't know much about the will of the Origin World, he had a general idea of ​​it.

His ability to reach the peak of the second level of the God King realm, becoming one of the five strongest individuals after the two ancient kingdoms and the three first-class forces, naturally stems from his own intelligence channels.

He had assumed that this was Qin Ming's act of kindness towards life.

But he never expected that there was such a profound meaning behind it, which made him even more certain of Qin Ming's identity.

Qin Ming must be a top-tier expert from outside the Origin World, such as the Old Demon of Time and Space, the Palace Master of Two Realms, and the Master of Ten Thousand Laws.

They are even more skillful than them.

"But why did the Great Emperor come to our Origin World?"

The Fire Ancestor's question was very direct, breaking the atmosphere of being immersed in grand ideas and bringing the topic back to the most realistic level.

Yes, why would such a powerful being with such a high level of insight, who can even see through the essence of the source world's operation, descend upon this source world?

Is it for the purpose of spreading the gospel?

For the treasure?

Or... is there another motive?

The Origin Continent is not without outsiders; the Time-Space Demon, the Two Realms Palace Master, and the Myriad Laws Pavilion Master are powerful beings from other Origin Worlds.

It's just that it's suppressed by the supreme rules, so it can only exert the strength of the Chaos Realm.

They came to the Origin Continent for the most precious treasures left behind by Yuan!

They don't care about this world.

So, what about Qin Ming?

Qin Ming looked at the deep-seated doubt in Huo Zu's eyes and suddenly smiled.

The smile no longer carried its former majesty, but instead held a hint of reminiscence, a hint of openness, and a hint of... the purest desire of a cultivator.

He looked up and gazed into the distance.

It seemed to be looking towards the Origin Continent, and also towards other great beings.

Qin Ming was very clear about some things.

Originating on the continent, it was the territory of the Yuan dynasty.

They were protected by the Yuan.

Even though he was protecting an endless territory at the same time, he was still able to keep an eye on the exceptionally talented beings in the Origin World.

And yet the Yuanhui couldn't detect that he had repeatedly invoked the supreme rules?

Even the giant axe, which reversed time and space, could discover the extraordinary origin of the Myriad Souls Banner. How could Yuan Hui not know?

This is unrealistic.

The fact that Yuan has not appeared yet suggests that he is likely keeping a close eye on him, a fact that Qin Ming is well aware of.

Under the supreme rules, all outsiders can only unleash the power of the Chaos Realm.

Lords were no exception.

However, as the first and oldest lord in the cultivator camp, Yuan's methods are far beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

In the original timeline, the Star Tower that Luo Feng used to traverse the world was nothing more than something he casually crafted, and the invincible "Lieyuan Technique" was just one of the thousands of secret techniques he created.

He has countless ways to kill himself.

He could even easily destroy the entire Origin World.

But he didn't.

Therefore, it must be observing me in secret, or even waiting for me to grow, so that I can become its help in the future.

With Yuan's magnanimity, this is not something impossible.

Even a being like 'Jin,' born to destroy the source world, can join the ranks of cultivators under his leadership. What else is impossible?

Not all cultivator lords are as kind as Luo Feng and Dongbo Xueying.

Jin is from the Destruction Demon Clan.

He comprehended the "Chunyuan Destruction Dao," which is nine parts destruction and one part life.

He was born with a love for killing.

Or like Naigu, who comprehended the Chaos Origin Bloodline Dao, devoured the bloodlines of various Chaos Origin Ancestors and integrated them into his own body. The more ancestral-level bloodlines he mastered, the stronger he would become.

The inherent pollution of the Hunyuan bloodline can drive it into madness.

Before his ultimate success, this Lord Naigu was also a figure who had slaughtered countless people and followed the path of devouring.

Moman went even further, comprehending the pure Chaos Origin Wave Dao. He himself was a Chaos Origin Wave, and was the first to achieve the status of Lord of the Origin World by following the path of faith.

Logically speaking...

These beings are unlikely to fight to protect the source world; they are probably lawless and unrestrained.

The cultivators' camp shouldn't be so united either.

Instead, like the naturally occurring primordial life forms, they possess multiple forces that fight each other.

but.

All three were impressed by Yuan.

The fact that cultivators are fighting desperately for their own side, and that they may still be fighting to the death, speaks volumes.

His return to the Fire Ancestor at this moment is more like taking the opportunity to respond to the 'Origin' in the dark.

"What does the Fire Ancestor believe cultivators seek?"

Qin Ming did not answer directly, but instead asked a question in return.

The Fire Ancestor paused, then pondered, "It may be for eternity, for power, for transcendence and freedom, for protecting loved ones, or for exploring the ultimate Dao... It varies from person to person."

"Well said."

Qin Ming nodded, "But ultimately, all cultivators are 'seeking'."

Seeking resources, seeking opportunities, seeking insights, seeking breakthroughs, seeking the possibility of "going a step further."

He stood up, put his hands behind his back, and looked up at the hazy yet orderly sky of the underworld, and slowly said, "I am the same."

"I am indeed not a native being of this world."

Qin Ming readily admitted this, which made Huo Zu and Zong Fu God King tense up, but his next words surprised them: "But I am not one of those plunderers from other source worlds that you think I am."

My origins... are somewhat unusual. By a stroke of luck, a wisp of my true spirit fell into this world and was reborn from nothingness.

He didn't mention the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, but instead used a vague but easy-to-understand statement: "I was reborn in this world, grew up in this world, and attained enlightenment in this world."

"This world is my hometown."

I established the Underworld here and set the cycle of reincarnation, both to protect the beings in this world and to establish a lasting order, and also to prove my Great Dao of Reincarnation!

The Six Paths of Reincarnation are the manifestation of the Great Dao of Reincarnation!

The Great Cycle of Reincarnation!

The Fire Ancestor did not understand, but the Six Paths of Reincarnation were naturally clear, as the entire operation of the Underworld was based on the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Based on the path Qin Ming cultivated.

Qin Ming looked into the void with an undeniable fervor: "The path of reincarnation cannot be achieved by closing oneself off!"

Establishing the Six Paths of Reincarnation, which covers a vast primordial world, is just the beginning. The Six Paths of Reincarnation will begin on the Origin Continent.

It spreads outwards to the surrounding source world, and to billions of worlds.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation are not for acquiring resources, but for planting the path I cultivate in the Source World, and growing together with the Source World.

"Although I also have requests, I will also give back!"

Under the rule of the Underworld, establish an orderly and vibrant new world that can support more beings in exploring the Great Dao and promote the evolution and prosperity of the Source World itself!

In this process, my Dao was perfected and my realm was elevated.

And all living beings in this world will be freed from disorder and suffering, and will gain a fairer opportunity and a brighter future!

The Source World will also grow!

Qin Ming's gaze was sharp as a sword, as if he were looking at a certain being: "This is my answer."

What I seek is not plunder, but proof of the truth.

How can it be compared to mere resources and treasures?

Can you see the joy in the Source World?

Fire Ancestor and God King Zongfu were stunned by Qin Ming's frank words, which were full of ideals and ambitions.

He had considered Qin Ming's purpose in doing this.

Such things as spreading faith, collecting souls, and plundering origins, but no one expected Qin Ming's vision to be so grand.

He directly tied his path to transcendence to the grand ambition of transforming the Origin World, and even the Origin Continent was just a starting point.

Moreover, upon closer examination, Qin Ming's words were not unfounded.

The establishment and promotion of the underworld, reincarnation, and the system of merit and sin... is itself a long and arduous process.

It requires deep roots and meticulous work; it is by no means a short-term endeavor.

More importantly, the increasingly strong aura of favor from the Origin World emanating from Qin Ming cannot be faked!

If he were truly a pure plunderer or destroyer, why would the will of the source world favor him?

This implicitly corroborates Qin Ming's statement.

"So... what the Great Emperor truly desires is to practice the supreme Dao in the world!"

The Fire Ancestor sighed, all doubts vanishing from his eyes, replaced by deep respect and longing. "To combine one's own path to transcendence with the benefit of a world of origin—such magnanimity and spirit are unparalleled in my life!"

"So... what the Great Emperor truly desires is to practice the supreme Dao in the world!"

The Fire Ancestor sighed, all doubts vanishing from his eyes, replaced by deep respect and longing. "To combine one's own path to transcendence with the benefit of a world of origin—such magnanimity and spirit are unparalleled in my life!"

This old man is willing to follow in the footsteps of this great steed, not only to protect the lives of the people in this region, but also to witness, and even participate in, this monumental undertaking!

King Zongfu was also deeply moved.

He joined Qin Ming's cause for revenge and self-preservation, but now he feels as if he has been drawn into a great undertaking that could change the fate of the entire Origin World.

The Origin Continent is just the beginning!

Qin Ming didn't take the two ancient kingdoms seriously at all. His goal was beyond the cage, the endless source world, and countless worlds!

If they follow Qin Ming, will their future be even greater?

Qin Ming's friends and teachers from his humble beginnings have all become increasingly powerful due to the growth of the Underworld.

Otherwise, how could so many powerful beings have been born from a mere primordial universe?

In the same era of reincarnation, there were dozens of Chaos Rulers!

This is absolutely outrageous.

As Qin Ming's strength increases and the Underworld grows stronger, will it become even more powerful after ruling the entire Origin Continent and even many Origin Worlds?

Just as the atmosphere inside the hall was stirring and the Fire Ancestor was returning to his heart, two figures on the Origin Continent also looked at Qin Ming.

"Does he know we exist?"

Yuan looked at Xingmang. Those words weren't addressed to Huozu at all, but to him and to Xingmang!

"He always knew about our existence."

Starlight spoke softly.

As he traveled through endless timelines, he saw various scenes of his interactions with Qin Ming, and all signs indicated that Qin Ming was no stranger to them.

"Where did he come from? Some special place within the Infinite Chaos Space, or from outside the Infinite Chaos Space?"

Curiosity lingered in Yuan's eyes.

The Infinite Chaos Space is vast, and even he has not truly explored it; there are still many unknown places.

Furthermore, some things in the infinite primordial space bear strong traces of human intervention!

such as.

Eternal Land!

Once a cultivator lord comprehends the Primordial Dao and becomes immortal, they will receive an invitation to the Eternal Land, where they will possess a throne!

Who created this?

Why would a throne exist?

Or perhaps it is in the Abyss of Destruction, where the traces of human design are even more pronounced, with each layer of the Abyss of Destruction containing a world messenger.

By defeating the world's envoy, one can seize its power.

The most amazing thing is that the higher the floor, the more likely you are to obtain "opportunities" and "treasures" within!

Destruction Weapon!

The high-level destructive weapons are even comparable to a mysterious place.

For example, the armor that Kafshu acquired.

That was a powerful treasure that he could neither forge nor even comprehend; the Star Tower was insignificant in comparison.

Even a lord like 'Gold' would desperately desire this.

So, who forged these weapons?

Born naturally?

How is that possible!

The secrets contained within are too shocking, but no one can find the truth within them, nor can anyone 'transcend' the infinite primordial space.

"I also cannot find out his origin. No matter how I search, that banner of ten thousand souls always appears out of nowhere."

Unable to track, unable to lock onto!

The endless timelines flowed in Xingmang's eyes. After discovering Qin Ming, he tried every means to travel to the past, but still could not see through it.

"call--"

Yuan Chang let out a long breath, his eyes filled with deep doubt, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"This is a good thing for us."

"His past is important, but his stance is the key. With the Tian Sheng Hun Yuan faction's offensive growing stronger, he is the crucial variable!"

Yuan's eyes were filled with a smile. He had naturally seen all of Qin Ming's qualities and knew his character and personality.

He also knew Qin Ming's thoughts on the future.

The Great Cycle of Reincarnation and the emergence of the Six Paths of Reincarnation have brought immense benefits to the Origin World and even to the countless worlds he created.

If Qin Ming enters, he will go on a killing spree, collecting souls. Once Qin Ming is discovered, he will be annihilated!

"Then, let's say hello to him."
