It was after Yuan became a Primordial Source Lord and forcefully annihilated three Ancestor-level Primordial Source Beings that the Human race was recognized as a distinct race by the innate Primordial Source Beings.
Following that, in the regions protected by Yuan, human powerhouses gradually began to emerge.
Within the Primordial Source Space, there is a tacit understanding among all races that possess Ancestor-level existences.
Ancestor-level Primordial Source Beings are forbidden from attacking Primordial Source Beings below the Ancestor-level of other races without cause.
After all, the innate Primordial Source Being races in the Primordial Source Space all have Ancestors.
If you were to kill a Primordial Source Being below the Ancestor-level of another race today, then tomorrow, an Ancestor from that other race would retaliate and kill a Primordial Source Being from your race.
In this manner, it's possible that in the end, an entire race might be left with only a single Ancestor, becoming a solitary figure in the Primordial Source Space, no longer recognized by the name "race."
The Primordial Source Space is vast and boundless, containing countless Universes.
These Universes born within the Primordial Source Space, especially "Origin Universes," are the most delicious food for Primordial Source Beings.
At the same time, they are also a potent medicine for them to advance further.
For a World-class Primordial Source Being, consuming an Origin Universe allows its internal Universe to grow significantly, unlocking more potential from its bloodline.
Even for Ancestor-level Primordial Source Beings, Origin Universes are rare tonics.
If they consume a sufficient number of Origin Universes, it greatly aids them in excavating their own bloodline.
Ancestor-level Primordial Source Beings protect their races, and in return, their races will scour the Primordial Source Space in search of Origin Universes to offer to their respective Ancestors.
Occasionally, Ancestors will bestow obtained Origin Universes upon their subordinates, allowing the number or strength of World-class Primordial Source Beings within their race to increase.
After all, many times, discovering an Origin Universe requires a struggle with other Primordial Source Being races that jointly discovered it, to seize ownership of the Origin Universe.
If the World-class Primordial Source Beings of one's own race cannot defeat the World-class Primordial Source Beings of another race, then that Origin Universe will very likely fall into the hands of another race.
Following Yuan becoming a Primordial Source Lord, humanity experienced a period of great development.
For every Origin Universe discovered, the Human race gained another World-class Primordial Source Being.
Moreover, the World-class Primordial Source Beings of humanity were, among all World-class Primordial Source Beings, the strongest.
As a result, in virtually every competition for an Origin Universe that the Human race participated in, they never lost.
However, the Primordial Source Space is vast and boundless, with Universes as numerous as fish and shrimp in the sea, yet Origin Universes are incredibly rare.
From the time Yuan became a Primordial Source Lord until now, the Human race has only participated in the competition for a handful of Origin Universes, no more than can be counted on two hands.
Therefore, compared to other innate Primordial Source Being races, only twelve World-class Primordial Source Beings from humanity have come to the edge of the vortex.
Well, it should be thirteen!
Because Hong Meng has also arrived.
...
"Hiss..."
"As expected of my second brother, causing such a stir as soon as he appeared in the Primordial Source Space."
Since Linley and Qin Yu appeared in the Primordial Source Space, Linley, within the spacetime barrier laid by Roy, killed Primordial Source Beings that mistakenly entered it. Qin Meng silently awaited the transformation of the Qin Meng Universe.
Meanwhile, Hong Meng ventured into the Primordial Source Space.
On one hand, he was searching for the human gathering place mentioned by his second brother.
On the other hand, he was also looking for World-class Primordial Source Beings, wanting to capture a few more for his second brother to study, to see if it could allow the Hong Meng Beings in the Hong Meng Space to advance further.
Unfortunately, despite there being over three hundred innate Primordial Source Being races in the Primordial Source Space, these races were insignificant when placed within the vastness of the Primordial Source Space.
Hong Meng traveled for tens of millions of years, encountering many Primordial Source Beings and a few World-class Primordial Source Beings.
However, as soon as those World-class Primordial Source Beings saw Hong Meng, they would immediately flee back to their respective races at their fastest speeds.
Clearly, they had witnessed the power of humanity's World-class Primordial Source Beings, or they had heard from their elders that when their bloodline power was not yet excavated to its limit, the World-class level of innate Primordial Source Beings was inferior to that of humanity's World-class.
And Hong Meng dared not pursue them into the gathering places of these Primordial Source Being races.
Not to mention the Ancestor aura that made Hong Meng's heart palpitate, even the sheer number of World-class Primordial Source Beings within the innate Primordial Source Being races was enough to make Hong Meng retreat.
These innate Primordial Source Being races, almost every single one of them, possessed more than ten World-class Primordial Source Beings.
Not long ago, Hong Meng suddenly sensed a surge of Primordial Source Qi within the Primordial Source Space.
At that moment, Hong Meng foresaw that if he rushed to the location of this surge in Primordial Source Qi, he might find the human gathering place in the Primordial Source Space that his second brother had spoken of.
After all, with such a significant disturbance, any influential force would send people to investigate.
As expected, as Hong Meng approached this Primordial Source Vortex, he already saw the World-class Primordial Source Beings of humanity.
At the very edge of the Primordial Source Vortex, in addition to twelve World-class Primordial Source Beings of humanity, there were also nearly thirty more innate World-class Primordial Source Beings.
These were the strongest existences in the Primordial Source Space, aside from the Ancestor-level Primordial Source Beings.
Every World-class Primordial Source Being that had excavated its bloodline to the limit was a powerhouse comparable to humanity's World-class Primordial Source Beings.
When Hong Meng appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of these existences.
The human side rejoiced.
On the side of the Primordial Source Beings, they were observing Hong Meng.
During each contest for an Origin Universe, they had come to know the opponents of their respective factions, specifically the powerhouses of the Human race.
The sudden appearance of a new World-class Primordial Source Being sparked everyone's curiosity.
"Hahaha, my friend, I never expected that besides our Yuan territory, there would be other human powerhouses in the Primordial Source Space."
"Come, come, let me introduce you, this is..."
Upon seeing Hong Meng, the Human World-class Primordial Source Beings quickly pulled him to their side. They introduced him to the territories of the Human race and invited him to join one of their territories.
After all, each Human World-class Primordial Source Being represented an Origin Universe.
If he joined Yuan's command, he would receive Yuan's protection, and no Ancestor-level Primordial Source Beings would dare to attack him.
If he were alone, he would soon be annihilated by the Ancestors of other races, and his Origin Universe would be seized.
Hearing these words, Hong Meng broke out in a cold sweat.
He had truly been ignorant and fearless before.
He had almost stumbled into the lairs of several Primordial Source Being races.
However, perhaps it was precisely because of his fearlessness that the Ancestors of those innate Primordial Source Being races mistook him for a World-class Primordial Source Being under Yuan's command, and thus did not attack him.
Facing their invitations, Hong Meng lowered his head and pondered for a moment before finally shaking his head, rejecting their offers.
If it were before, Hong Meng might have joined Yuan's territory.
But at this moment, from the massive Primordial Source vortex before him, Hong Meng actually sensed a trace of his second brother, Roy's, aura.
This indicated that this commotion was likely caused by his second brother.
Regarding his second brother Roy, Hong Meng had, over the years, come to feel that his second brother was an "omnipotent" being.
In his mind, his second brother had already appeared in the Primordial Source Space, and with the commotion his second brother was creating, it was enough to protect everyone in the Primordial Space.
Hearing Hong Meng's refusal, the Human World-class Primordial Source Beings couldn't help but shake their heads.
Conversely, the World-class innate Primordial Source Beings' eyes lit up.
Immediately, over a dozen World-class Primordial Source Beings who had excavated their bloodlines to the limit left their auras on Hong Meng.
Clearly, they were all interested in Hong Meng, or rather, they were all interested in Hong Meng's Origin Universe.
Without Ancestor backing, they had no qualms about making their move.
"Alas..."
The Human powerhouse who had first invited Hong Meng let out a sigh but said nothing more.
After all, this was Hong Meng's own choice.
...
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Endless Primordial Source Qi surged into Roy's body.
Instantly, over three thousand laws of various colors intertwined within Roy's body.
Each law was like a dragon drinking water, vying to devour the Primordial Source Qi entering Roy's body.
With every portion of Primordial Source Qi devoured, these law powers within Roy's body would take on a hint of gold.
Gradually, these over three thousand laws began to rotate and fuse within Roy's body, eventually forming a phantom image resembling a jade disc.
"Boom!"
When the laws within Roy's body condensed into the jade disc phantom, Roy felt his entire body tremble.
The chaotic laws instantly became orderly.
As endless Primordial Source Qi poured in, the jade disc began to emit brilliant colors, each color corresponding to a law.
These law colors intertwined, evolving into more colors.
Then, with the filling of endless Primordial Source Qi, the jade disc began to solidify from its center.
With every bit of solidification, Roy regained a portion of control over himself.
After an unknown amount of time, even the Primordial Source Beings outside could feel that the Primordial Source Qi in the entire Primordial Source Space seemed to have thinned by a layer. The commotion within the Primordial Source Space gradually weakened.
However, while the commotion on the outer fringes weakened, the power of the Primordial Source vortex around Roy grew stronger.
"Crack, crack, crack..."
"Ah..."
An Ancestor-level Primordial Source Being, caught off guard, nearly had its body annihilated, its life and Dao extinguished.
Thus, as the power of the Primordial Source vortex intensified, even the Ancestors had to begin retreating from the vortex according to their own strength.
Even the five Ancestors in the Eternal Land, along with Yuan, had to retreat towards the edge of the vortex.
However, as the power of the Primordial Source vortex increased, the size of the vortex also began to shrink.
With the push and pull, their distance from the center of the vortex did not change significantly.
Seeing this scene, all the beings around the Primordial Source vortex knew that this unprecedented anomaly in the Primordial Source Space was about to end.
Once the Primordial Source vortex was completely absorbed by the unknown existence at its center, it would be time for everyone to contend for this treasure.
Glancing at the six figures standing at the forefront, some of the Ancestors in the rear had their minds stirred.
Judging by the power emanating from the nurturing of this treasure, they could tell it was extraordinary.
If they could seize this treasure, could they challenge the six Lords in the Eternal Land?
Or even surpass them?
One of the naturally born Ancestor-level Primordial Source Beings, a rodent, its small eyes flashed. Secret spiritual sense quietly spread towards the center of the vortex, trying to see what exactly was at the very center of the Primordial Source vortex.
"Ah..."
But in the next moment, this rodent Ancestor let out a scream.
Its secret spiritual sense, under the power of this Primordial Source vortex, was completely powerless. It was instantly annihilated.
Immediately, the rodent Ancestor's seven orifices bled, and its aura plummeted.
The next moment, this rodent Ancestor tore through space and fled back to its lair.
There was no other way. Its spiritual sense had been severely damaged, and its own condition was no longer at its peak, losing its qualification to compete with others for the treasure.
If it didn't flee quickly, it might be attacked while it was down by other Ancestors.
Well, the most important thing was to guard against Yuan, the powerful human expert.
After all, naturally born Ancestor-level Primordial Source Beings had "Primordial Source Dao" inherent in their bloodlines. They had neither the time nor the energy to study the "Primordial Source Dao" of other Ancestors, let alone dig into their own.
But human expert Yuan was different. Human cultivation was about discovering the "Essence" of the Primordial Source Space.
He would kill Ancestors so that human World-class Primordial Source Beings could study the "Primordial Source Dao" of Ancestors. This was the best teacher for human World-class Primordial Source Beings.
"Heh..."
At first, no one noticed this Ancestor's actions, but after it was injured, all the Ancestors present reacted.
This guy was quite cunning!
But it was a pity that in the end, his attempt to steal a chicken resulted in a loss of the rice. His soul was severely injured. Looking at the rodent Ancestor's condition, it might not be able to recover from its soul injuries for tens of trillions of years.
At any other time, if Yuan had seen a weakened Ancestor, he would not have missed this opportunity for human World-class Primordial Source Beings to take another step forward.
But at this moment, Yuan was looking at the very center of the vortex with great anticipation.
Was it as he had imagined?
If it was truly as he imagined, to what extent would this human descendant eventually grow?
...
Under everyone's expectant gazes, the vortex of Primordial Source Qi gradually shrank.
Although everyone's spiritual sense could not spread into the vortex, every Primordial Source Being's eyesight allowed them to clearly see the entire Primordial Source vortex.
As the Primordial Source vortex shrank, the Ancestor-level Primordial Source Beings began to exude powerful pressure.
Upon sensing this powerful pressure, the World-class Primordial Source Beings and those below on the outer perimeter turned pale. The faster they could flee, the faster they fled, wanting to escape this place in the shortest amount of time.
As long as they weren't foolish, seeing the actions of the Ancestors, they knew that the Ancestors were about to start fighting for the item in the vortex.
In front of the Ancestors, World-class Primordial Source Beings were not much stronger than infants.
Even the residual power from the Ancestors' battles would be enough to kill World-class Primordial Source Beings.
