Devouring Starry Sky 2 Origin Continent

Chapter 403, Episode 11: The Ice Peak Camp's Decision

"Let the war begin!"

"It'll be exciting when they start fighting!"

"I bet the cultivators will lose the first battle! But if it goes on for a long time, the Ice Peak camp probably won't be able to hold out."

"Haha, it would be great if the three thousand six hundred world groups of the cultivators' territory were reduced to ruins!"

"Hmph, if it really turns into ruins, then those eight lords will have nothing left to hold them back, and that would be the most terrifying thing!"

"That would be more interesting!"

In the Land of Eternity, a group of people, always eager for a good show, gathered together.

Apart from the eight lords on the cultivators' side and the twelve immortal beings from the Ice Peak faction, the other nine immortal beings all have avatars appearing in the Eternal Land at this moment.

These are the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, the Progenitor of Fire, the Primordial Ancestor, and the Mother of Time and Space, all from the Primordial Chaos faction. There are also five beings who do not belong to any faction.

These five are Mogus, Kafshu, Feather Emperor, Demon Ruins, and Hermit.

Of these five, four are among the top ten strongest in the Infinite Chaos Space. The Hermit, whose strength is unknown, is the only one in the Infinite Chaos Space whose true form no one can find.

These five individuals can live a carefree life without needing to join any faction.

"The more intense the fighting, the better." Kafshu, wearing white armor, laughed heartily. "Infinite Serpent, your Primordial Chaos Faction and the Cultivator Faction fought for so long before, and many Ancestors must have died! If the Ice Peak Faction and the Cultivator Faction were to start a large-scale war, I estimate that several Ancestors would also die."

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor didn't care and said, "Those who have gone through life-and-death trials can improve their strength. Those who died can only blame themselves for not being strong enough."

Unlike the cultivator lords who are all immortal, only a handful of the hundreds of progenitors who participated in the war in the innate Hunyuan faction were 'immortal'; the vast majority faced the pressure of death.

Under the threat of death, they fought many battles with the cultivators. Many of the surviving progenitors gained something, which they need time to digest.

"There are too many progenitors!"

The chilling Mogus also said, "Those weak progenitors should be eliminated! The Ice Peak faction also has 26 ordinary progenitors, some of them should die!"

“Megus, if my senses are not mistaken, more than 95% of your power has been destroyed, right?” Kafshu said.

"You think you can defeat Starburst?" Mogus scoffed.

“Although I can’t beat him, he can’t do anything to me either.” Kafshu shook his head. “Unlike you, you only know how to bully the weak! You are powerless against the Starlight.”

Mogus snorted coldly.

“Initial.” The Strange Cube Demon Ruins sat beside the Absolute Sphere 'Initial Ancestor,' the two having a deep friendship. “I heard you recently went to the 'Wall of Fire'?”

Within the boundless primordial space lie many mysterious places. These mysterious places vary in power, and some are so powerful that even the progenitors had no hope of refining and controlling them.

The Walls of Hellfire are one such mysterious place.

The Wall of Hellfire is an endless, majestic wall stretching for about a hundred world clusters, and its width is comparable to that of a world cluster! In the mysterious lands, its sheer size ranks among the top three.

More than 99% of the progenitors who dared to touch the walls of the fiery hell would be burned to ashes.

Wulan had been to the Wall of Fire before, but was burned and forced to retreat, not daring to go any further.

The only one who was able to cross the wall of the fiery inferno was the Primordial Ancestor!
The Primordial Ancestor responded, "Several old friends, including Yanhuo and Shazhou, asked me for help, so I'm taking them to the Wall of Fire." Long ago, before the factions were divided, Shazhou, the Primordial Ancestor, and Moxu were already very familiar with each other.

"Have you found the origin of the Fire Hell Wall?" Demon Ruins asked.

“No,” Initial said.

The Ancestor of Fire also said, "This time we crossed the entire Fire Hell Wall, but we still can't sense the 'Origin of the Fire Hell Wall'."

“If you can’t even sense it, then there’s no point in talking about refining it,” Kafshu said.

"We've discovered twelve different types of the highest-level fire power within the Fire Hell Walls," the Progenitor of Fire exclaimed. The icy fire there could even freeze a progenitor. There was also endless, scorching fire that incinerated everything. There was also thunderous fire that destroyed everything. There was ashes fire that annihilated all things. There was violent fire…

Multiple flames simultaneously engulfed the area, and only the initial one was able to cross them.

“If the Wall of Fire Hell has an origin, it contains at least twelve of the highest-level powers. To refine it, one would need to master nearly half of those highest-level powers,” said the Infinite Serpent Ancestor. “All living beings in the entire Infinite Chaos Space can at most master two of the highest-level powers! Therefore, the Wall of Fire Hell cannot be refined.”

“It’s impossible.” The Ancestor of Fire nodded.

Any progenitor skilled in fire harbors ambitions for the Walls of Fire.

Such a terrifying and mysterious place, once mastered, would undoubtedly grant a tremendous boost to one's strength! Take the Ancestor of Fire, for example; currently one of the Nine Emperors, his strength is slightly inferior to that of the Infinite Serpent Ancestor. But if he were to master the 'Wall of Fire Hell,' he would certainly be able to suppress the Infinite Serpent Ancestor! He might even have a chance to challenge for the strongest position in the Infinite Chaos Space.

Of course, in notoriously powerful places like the Fire Hell Wall, the Eternal Land, and the Abyss of Destruction, there is no hope of refining.

……

Inside the enormous and majestic palace.

Twelve beings, including the Ice Peak Ancestor, gathered here.

"Look!" A massive figure pointed, and the scene of eight cultivator lords traveling ahead appeared in the air. "The eight cultivator lords are on their way! Their intentions are clear: if we seize these world clusters, they will immediately start a war!"

This enormous figure, with a body like yellow rock, glared angrily at everyone around him. "I, Xiu Saiwei, have not invaded a single world cluster in the cultivators' territory, nor have I taken a single resource. In this war, regardless of whether you participate or not... I, Xiu Saiwei, will absolutely not participate!"

"Shusevi! We twelve are a whole. Once the collective decision is made, you must participate in the war!" The three emperors of the Wind, Thunder, and Sea immediately stepped forward and angrily rebuked.

“We are ultimately one entity.” The progenitor of Wugu also spoke. He was the only one who came here in his true form, and his interests here were the greatest.

Xiu Saiwei scoffed, "What can you do to me if I don't join the war?"

The Ice Peak Ancestor was also troubled by this scene.

The Ice Peak faction comprises twelve immortal beings and 26 other progenitors. While seemingly formidable, precisely because its leaders are immortal… they are extremely difficult to control. Even the weakest of the three emperors—Wind, Thunder, and Sea—are capable of causing trouble.

"The cultivator camp has eight lords, which is roughly equal to our twelve. We also have 26 progenitors! Once the war officially begins, we will have an absolute advantage. We can crush them with overwhelming force and even seize a wider territory!"

"We need to teach this cultivator camp a lesson! Let them understand that by allying with our Ice Peak camp, they must be subservient to us!"

"You two idiots! Back when the cultivator faction was weak, we were the ones in charge! But now they can fight against hundreds of ancestors from the Primordial Chaos faction. Why would they be afraid of us?"

"I haven't invaded the cultivators' territory, nor do I have any resources. My thoughts are clear: I definitely won't participate in the war!" After saying this, a thin figure vanished.

"gone?"

"Pu Sheng actually left ahead of schedule?" The Three Emperors of the Wind and Thunder Sea were furious. "Shut up."

The Ice Peak Ancestor glanced at the Three Emperors of Wind, Thunder and Sea. He had the idea of ​​expelling the Three Emperors of Wind, Thunder and Sea from the 'Ice Peak Camp', but after all, the twelve beings of the Eternal Land had formed an alliance. Without sufficient reason, it was not appropriate to expel them directly.

“Pu Cheng is gone.” The Ice Peak Ancestor surveyed the surroundings. “His stance was clear: he will not participate in the war. What are your thoughts?”

“I won’t participate in the war either,” Xiu Saiwei said. “Our Ice Peak faction, like the Natural Chaos faction, needs a lot of resources to allow the life cores to grow. But the eight cultivator lords are enlightened. They don’t care about resources. I don’t know why we have to fall out with them just to invade the world cluster.”

"The cultivators have always relied on us! Now that they're stronger, they're starting to turn against us?"

"I think it's time for a fight. Those ancestors who surrendered to us only know how to enjoy the resources. It's time to make them fight to the death."

There were quite a few people present who wanted to start a war.

The Ice Peak Ancestor was quite troubled and could only secretly send a telepathic message to Sand Boat.

The gray-clad woman, 'Shazhou,' who had been silent all along, glanced at the Ice Peak Ancestor and then looked around before speaking: 'This war is meaningless. I will not participate!'

The hall fell silent for a moment.

Sandboats aren't participating?
Sand Boat and Star Lord are the top two strongest forces in the Infinite Chaos Space. If Sand Boat doesn't participate, and neither do Pu Cheng and Xiu Saiwei, this war could be lost!

There are twelve immortal beings, with the three emperors of wind, thunder, and sea at the bottom, while the others are getting stronger and stronger.

In terms of strength, Pu Sheng is comparable to a cultivator lord! That's why he dared to be the first to leave, showing no respect to anyone.

Xiu Saiwei's strength is also among the top thirty in the Endless Chaos Space.

“Pu Cheng, Xiu Saiwei, and Sister Sha Zhou are not participating in the war. I feel that this war is not going to be successful and it is not suitable to start.” The Ice Peak Ancestor’s gaze swept around. “The world groups that we previously invaded have all been returned to the cultivators’ camp. Does anyone have any objections?”

There were no further objections in the main hall.

……

"They've decided to back down!"

Luo Feng and his group were on their way when the Star Lord suddenly spoke.

"You backed down?" Yuan's face lit up with joy.

To be honest, the lords do care about the countless creatures in their territories. Of the twelve immortal beings in the Ice Peak faction, more than half are warlike! They don't care about the lives of those at the bottom.

Xiu Saiwei and Pu Sheng are among the few who care about their ethnic groups! They are also worried that a full-scale war would affect their own ethnic groups.

"In the negotiations with the Ice Peak Ancestor later, do as I say." The Star Lord glimpsed countless possibilities for the future, some of which, once put into action, would almost certainly become reality.

"Okay." Yuan nodded, trusting Xingmang's advice; it was sure to be right.

Half a day later—

Led by the Star Lord, the eight lords arrived together at the border of the fallen territory.

Six figures also appeared on the Ice Peak side, namely the Ice Peak Ancestor and six other beings who came to greet them.

“Brother Yuan, don’t be angry.” Ancestor Ice Peak approached and said with a smile, “You said you wanted to start a war and made some threats. I barely managed to get the internal opinions to be unified by your help.”

"What's your opinion?" Yuan asked.

“Of course, it’s about returning the occupied territories,” the Ice Peak Ancestor said with a smile. “There’s really no need for us to go to war.”

"Merely returning the territory? I've investigated carefully; your Ice Peak faction is quite ruthless, plundering wantonly and even devouring the essence of many source worlds," Yuan said coldly. "Now you think simply returning the territory is enough?"

The Ice Peak Ancestor frowned slightly; he was a little displeased.

Even without war, he secretly fuels the flames.

But even the Ice Peak Ancestor had his pride.

"What do you want?" Ice Peak Ancestor looked at Yuan.

"I don't want any compensation from you. I'll return all the resources I plundered from the cultivators' territory," Yuan said. "Let's call it even! Otherwise, whoever stole it, I'll go and take it back tenfold!"

The Ice Peak Ancestor nodded expressionlessly: "I can grant your request."

"Ice Peak." The Wugu Ancestor and the Three Emperors of the Wind and Thunder Sea were getting anxious. They had taken the most, and they wanted them to give it back.
“I said I agreed.” The Ice Peak Ancestor glanced at them. “Anyone who is unwilling can go and talk to the cultivator camp themselves.”

The progenitor of Wugu and the three emperors of the wind, thunder, and sea had no choice but to endure it.

With just them? They would be utterly torn apart by eight cultivator lords.

"Brother Yuan."

The Ice Peak Ancestor looked at Yuan and smiled slightly, "Your cultivator camp is different now."

At least when facing his Ice Peak Ancestor, his attitude is different now, much tougher than before!

“I also have to explain to the other seven lords.” Yuan looked at the Ice Peak Ancestor. “I believe you can understand, Ice Peak.”

"I understand." The Ice Peak Ancestor nodded.

They looked at each other.

Everyone understands that some things have changed.

Soon, the Ice Peak faction all departed, and the Wugu Ancestor and the Three Emperors of Wind and Thunder Sea also needed to return all the plundered resources in a short period of time.

"They invaded our cultivators' territory, and merely making them retreat and return the plundered resources is already too lenient," Jin said coldly. "Given my temperament, whatever they plundered, we'd plunder tenfold in return!"

“Our strength is not enough,” Xingmang said. “Forcing them to retreat from their looting is already the maximum we can go. Any higher? With Bingfeng’s arrogance, he will definitely start a war! Once he decides to start a war, Shazhou will definitely join the battle.”

Luo Feng had just become a lord and hadn't had much interaction with the Ice Peak faction, so he just watched everything silently.

"Regardless, all 3,600 world groups in the cultivator's territory have been recovered." Yuan smiled and looked at Luo Feng beside him. "Fortunately, Luo Feng broke through to become a new lord, otherwise, who knows what the cultivator's territory would have become."

The other lords were also in a good mood at the moment.

Only now can this war be considered a complete victory!
