Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

"As long as we unite, the Northern River Emperor will be powerless against us."

After he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the Lord of Chaos City, and immediately felt somewhat apologetic.

"I apologize, City Lord, we got a little too excited," the Blood Axe Lord said apologetically.

They kept talking about the benefits for them, and almost forgot about the Lord of Chaos City.

When the alliance was established, its primary concern was not their interests, but rather the interests of the Lord of Chaos City.

A gentleman cannot be deceived by his principles. Even if the Lord of Chaos City is truly a born saint who has crossed worlds to help them resist the invasion of the Northern River Emperor, they still have to pay him a sufficient price.

Not to mention that the core of the entire Freedom Alliance now rests on the Chaos City Lord, who is also their de facto leader.

Therefore, the interests and needs of the Chaos City Lord must be met so that the entire alliance can function properly.

In any case, the Lord of Chaos City is a cultivator from the Realm Heart Continent, and cannot infringe upon their core interests, namely their race and the world.

As long as it doesn't involve those two things, other resources and treasures can also be contributed.

"Understandable!"

Lu Yunhe nodded, indicating his understanding. The Great Emperor of Beihe had already gathered more than twenty divine generals, which meant that his hegemony had been in place for a long time.

Thus, the Blood Axe Lord and others have probably been in a state of torment, and having finally grasped a real glimmer of hope, they are unable to contain themselves any longer.

However, just as the Blood Axe Lord and the others had thought, Lu Yunhe had paid a considerable price to hold off the Northern River Emperor, and now it was time to reap the rewards.

“Since we are all in an alliance, we can share information and resources,” Lu Yunhe said directly.

Although he spent a considerable amount of time in the Broken Tooth Mountains, his exploration of the world was still limited, and he couldn't compare to the indigenous people.

The Free Alliance has gathered twenty or thirty Emperor-level beings, which is equivalent to an equal number of worlds. Sharing information saves Lu Yunhe a lot of trouble, as he no longer needs to explore bit by bit.

As for resources, these worlds have existed for so long, they have plenty of good things to offer.

The resource treasure trove of the Blood Soul World alone almost doubled Lu Yunhe's wealth, not to mention the entire Free Alliance.

Even if he only chooses what he wants, it would make him the richest man on the Boundary Continent, and it wouldn't be difficult for him to equip every cosmic god with a top-tier secret treasure.

“That’s only right. We will compile the information collected by the clan and hand it over to the Alliance Leader later,” said the Blood Axe Lord.

"We will also compile a list of treasures, and hope that one of the alliance leaders will find it appealing."

Even if Lu Yunhe hadn't said anything, the Blood Axe Master and the others had already made preparations for these things.

They are merely some resources and easily copied materials, utterly insignificant in the face of the survival of the entire tribe.

As long as they can get the Lord of Chaos City to take action and help them resist the Northern River Emperor, they are willing to pay any price in resources.

Moreover, this is what the Lord of Chaos City deserves. If it were someone else, even if they offered up all their resources, they might not be able to get a Great Emperor to take action against another Great Emperor.

Even as an emperor, he wouldn't care about these resources at all.

In other words, cultivators like Lu Yunhe don't actually have that strong foundation; a large part of them rely on their cultivation level to keep up, so these resources are still somewhat useful.

Moreover, Lu Yunhe also has the Chaos Kingdom under his command. With this resource, the entire kingdom will not have to worry about resources, only about manpower.

A force of dozens of emperor-level beings is supporting an ancient kingdom.

Lu Yunhe himself had to control himself to prevent the Chaos Ancient Kingdom from expanding too quickly and causing negative effects.

"Does the Alliance Leader have any other orders? We will do our utmost to fulfill them," the Blood Axe Lord said.

This is far too insignificant. They themselves are a little uneasy about not putting in enough effort, fearing that one day the Chaos City Lord might be dissatisfied and simply run away.

"There are two more things."

Lu Yunhe didn't stand on ceremony. As the leader of the alliance, he held great power, so it was perfectly reasonable for him to order these people around. Otherwise, what would be the point of establishing this alliance?

"First, help me gather information on low-level Chaos Origin life forms, as detailed as possible," Lu Yunhe said.

It would be too troublesome for him to search the world for low-level Chaos Origin life forms all by himself, and it would also require luck. He would need to mobilize a group of people.

Moreover, once the Freedom Alliance is established, it will be able to mobilize or influence far more than just these few dozen Emperor-level figures.

These royal-level beings have been in the Broken Tooth Mountains for so long that they have a lot of connections, both overt and covert, and they have many channels that they can leverage.

The entire Free Alliance, once mobilized, can influence many world monarchs.

"The second thing is that I may also arrange for some cultivators to come here for training. I will need you to make the arrangements."

Now that the Chaos Ancient Kingdom has been established, Lu Yunhe naturally needs to consider their needs and cannot simply let go of them.

This retreat is merely a temporary truce between Lu Yunhe and the Northern River Emperor. The war between the Free Alliance under his command and the Northern River forces will not stop, and may even escalate, but it will not involve the Emperor's existence.

This makes it very suitable for cultivators to train, at least better than simple exploration.

The Realm Heart Continent has too few places for the universe gods to hone their skills; it would be better to throw them into the battlefields of the native inhabitants.

As long as it doesn't involve Emperor-level beings, even Cosmic God-level cultivators can participate.

Chapter 729 Returning to the Ancient Kingdom of Chaos

“No problem, these two requirements are very simple!” The Blood Axe Lord nodded in agreement.

Because of his relationship with the Lord of Chaos, he was essentially regarded as a communication bridge between the Free Alliance and the Lord of Chaos.

After all, the Lord of Chaos City is still a cultivator, so it's not appropriate for him to directly handle the affairs of the alliance.

Such minor matters do not require discussion within the league; they can be implemented directly.

The Lord of Chaos City is, after all, an Emperor-level being. As long as it doesn't involve their very foundation, they can simply issue orders.

The current Lord of Chaos City is powerful and prestigious, and is the true leader and ruler of the Free Alliance.

After the incident with the Northern River Emperor, the Blood Axe Lord and others also understood a problem.

The environment of the Broken Tooth Mountains is not as stable as imagined. It would be best to become a direct subordinate of the Emperor or even the Supreme Being, rather than a superficial subordinate.

In this way, although power may be somewhat limited, security can still be guaranteed.

If they were like the divine generals under the Northern River Emperor, serving as divine generals of some great emperor, then there would be no need to worry about the invasion of the Northern River forces; they could simply sit back and watch the tigers fight.

Therefore, the world monarchs in the Free Alliance had already made mental preparations.

I'm not afraid of the Chaos City Lord making demands; I'm afraid he'll make demands that aren't enough.

Fewer conditions mean that the Chaos City Lord has less need for the Free Alliance, and the connection between the two sides is not as close.

After all, the Lord of Chaos City is essentially a cultivator. If the Free Alliance encounters problems or the relationship is not close enough, they can be abandoned at any time.

"Alliance Leader, are there any other requests?" Blood Axe Lord asked.

Lu Yunhe was somewhat surprised to hear this. Was it because of the strength he had just demonstrated that these people were eager to work? Or did they feel that the price they were paying was too low and were a little uneasy?

However, he does have a need, but it is related to his abilities and there is no need to reveal it to them for the time being.

It would be more appropriate to discuss this further once his strength has increased and the entire Freedom Alliance is fully operational, thus avoiding any misjudgment on either side.

After all, these people gathered here largely to resist the oppression of slavery and to avoid opposing other emperors or even supreme beings because of the issue of their leader.

Once you join the Northern River faction, you will not only lose your freedom, but you may also lose your life.

The ambitions of the Northern River Emperor are practically common knowledge.

It was precisely to deal with other emperors and supreme beings; otherwise, why would such harsh conditions of rule be necessary to completely control the power of the emperors under his command?

The foundation for dozens of Divine Generals, who are at the mid-stage of the Emperor level, to contend with the Supreme is that they need to be strictly ordered, just like an army, and have only one will.

Otherwise, simply uniting would be completely meaningless for the Supreme Being; killing a few would cause the Supreme Being to collapse.

"Let's get these things arranged for now and get the entire alliance up and running," Lu Yunhe said.

At his level, these people can offer him very little help, and some of it is even due to the Chaos Ancient Kingdom; otherwise, his needs would be even less.

"Understood, Alliance Leader, you are truly righteous!" Blood Axe Lord said admiringly, "It is our good fortune that the Free Alliance has an Alliance Leader."

The conditions proposed by the Lord of Chaos City were not harsh at all, and were even far below their expectations. Moreover, some of them were for the benefit of his subordinates.

Such a broad-minded leader is truly a rare find, possessing both strength and magnanimity, and is indeed a leader worth following.

Unlike the Great Emperor of the Northern River, who, for his own selfish interests, instigated wars in countless worlds and forcibly enslaved numerous world monarchs.

According to the Chaos City Lord's request, one can also glean some insight into his thoughts; at least he is not the kind of heartless and ungrateful person.

"Leave these matters to us. We will do our utmost to fulfill the Alliance Leader's requirements," the Blood Axe Lord and the others bowed.

"I'll leave it to you."

His subordinates' role was to handle some tedious matters for him, so that he wouldn't have to worry about these things.

Subsequently, the Lord of Bloodaxe hosted a banquet to celebrate the defeat of Emperor North River and the establishment of the Free Alliance.

With the defeat of Emperor Beihe, the Free Alliance's message spread throughout the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, including the most core member, the Chaos City Lord.

……

In the void between the indigenous worlds, two terrifying wills meet.

One of them emitted a blazing heat wave, as dazzling as the sun.

Meanwhile, another will, filled with countless bolts of lightning, suppressed the void like the might of heaven.

The former is naturally the Haogu Supreme that Lu Yunhe encountered, while the latter is another Supreme of the indigenous people, the "Leixiao Supreme".

As two supreme figures among the indigenous peoples, their relationship may not be considered close, but they are certainly very familiar with each other.

"Haogu, you personally fought that cultivator. How did it feel?" Supreme Thundercloud asked.

"His aptitude is very high, and he also has a soul attack skill. Although the effect is average, it can indeed work on us. If it were another Emperor-level being, the effect would be even greater," said Supreme Haogu with apprehension.

He had personally fought against the Lord of Chaos City. Although the Lord's strength was still quite average in his eyes, his potential was indeed a threat to them.

"I never expected that after so long, a being capable of threatening us would finally emerge among the cultivators. Yuan's scheme is probably about to succeed," Thunderclap Supreme sighed.

After reaching the peak of the Emperor level, he was also able to feel another level of power, and could clearly feel the power of the barrier set up by "Yuan".

Their existence is primarily for the purpose of training and honing the skills of cultivators on the Realm Heart Continent.

However, the great "Yuan" looked down on them, so apart from setting up a barrier in the Broken Tooth Mountains, it did not impose any restrictions on them, allowing them to multiply and grow, even surpassing the Realm Heart Continent.

Although the Realm Heart Continent is incredibly terrifying to other source worlds, it is nothing compared to the Broken Tooth Mountains.

Those so-called invincible beings don't even look down on some emperor-level beings, let alone these supreme beings; they can be killed with a single breath.
