Swallowed Star: Copy God

From the perspective of the Human Alliance's current development model, the increasingly abundant external resources, cultivation experience, and numerous inheritances have led to a complete convergence of treatment in cultivation environments for all powerhouses.

In other words, the gap between many powerhouses at different stages and levels has become smaller and smaller.

At least in the vast majority of levels within each major realm, things are becoming more and more balanced, and the difference in strength between each other is not as great as before.

Although the top-tier individuals are still at the top, the large lead they originally had has been narrowed significantly by the Human Alliance's abundant resources and environment.

For example, let's take the Immortal level within the human race as an example.

As long as a World Lord pinnacle-level powerhouse completely masters a lower-level origin law, reaching the point of fully comprehending it, they will have the qualifications to break through to the Immortal level.

Afterward, by sublimating the world within their body into a Divine Kingdom and receiving the infusion from the origin of the primal universe, they can transform their own energy and soul into a Divine Body, officially stepping into the Immortal realm.

From initial entry into the Immortal stage to Immortal Military Lord, the Marquis-level Immortal with an undying body, and the King-level Immortal whose Divine Body has been polished to the extreme.

Even within the King-level Immortal stage, there are very detailed divisions such as initial entry, advanced, peak, limit, and invincible.

The reason for such detailed divisions is that at the Immortal stage, due to different conditions, the strength between each other presents a very large difference.

In the past, within the human race, including the various races within the primal universe, the vast majority of the large group of Immortal powerhouses were at the stage of initial entry into the Immortal stage and Immortal Military Lord.

Even just taking a further step to achieve an undying body is enough to trap countless powerhouses.

These powerhouses who can achieve immortality are, in their respective stages, geniuses who are one in ten thousand, and they all have enough self-confidence and pride in their hearts.

However, after breaking through to the Immortal stage, they realize that they are too ordinary compared to those real geniuses.

After all, in every stage, there are the most outstanding people, and even more outstanding people must be selected from these most outstanding people in order to have the opportunity to advance to a higher realm.

Being able to achieve immortality is already far more excellent than the vast majority of cultivators.

The reason why these vast Immortal powerhouses cannot advance to a higher realm, in addition to the most fundamental limitations of their innate talent and aptitude, is also largely due to insufficient resource supply.

A large part of the focus of cultivation at the Immortal stage is on polishing one's own Divine Body.

It can even be said that as long as the Divine Body is polished sufficiently strong, then achieving an undying body is simply as easy as flipping one's hand, and stepping into the King-level is not a big problem.

This reliance on resources is even more important to ordinary people than talent.

After all, those special life forms with innate strength will inevitably step into the King-level once they break through, their powerful life gene level does not allow them to be so weak.

However, the human race, which is born with deficiencies, does not have such good luck. Except for those geniuses who have enough accumulation to quickly cross bottlenecks, everyone else needs to polish their Divine Body step by step.

The key to polishing the Divine Body is nothing more than communicating with the origin of the primal universe and using a large amount of pure energy to strengthen one's own Divine Body, so as to meet higher standards.

In this process, without the help of resources, it is very difficult for many Immortal powerhouses to communicate with the origin of the primal universe on their own, and the effect is also very slow, with almost no progress.

Therefore, it is not that these Immortal powerhouses do not want to work hard, but that they have worked hard for too long and cannot see any results, and they certainly have no passion in their hearts.

The resources within the primal universe are limited, although due to the mechanism of the primal universe, many of the resources within it have regenerative characteristics.

However, the development of the population will leave the regeneration of resources far behind.

More and more powerhouses are born, which will naturally take away the inflow of resources, making it more difficult for later cultivators to obtain the resources they want.

Due to the limitations of resources, these powerhouses at various stages have to spend a lot of time and energy just on polishing and improving their Divine Body, and there may not be any progress.

In addition to this, they are naturally even less likely to devote themselves wholeheartedly to the cultivation of secret techniques, laws, and so on, it is simply beyond their capabilities.

It is precisely because of this situation that a large part of the people at the Immortal stage do not have any too lofty hopes.

They spent many years exploring, but got disappointing results, which naturally made them disheartened and no longer entangled in improving their strength and realm.

So it can be seen that many Immortal powerhouses are traveling all over the primal universe, or establishing a small force, acting as the lord of a small country or planet.

Only in this way can they make their long lives not too boring.

The situation at the Immortal stage is only a microcosm of the major realms.

Because of the scarcity of resources and the preemption of many advanced powerhouses, the speed of progress of all powerhouses is far behind their own inherent talent prospects.

This is also something that cannot be helped. The general operating rules within the primal universe before were that powerhouses rise, and most people are foils in this process.

Only among a group of powerhouses, through their own strength and opportunities, can they obtain the final opportunity for progress, and then they are qualified to reach the top of the primal universe.

Such as the Original Ancestor, the City Lord of Chaos City, the Queen of the Zerg, etc., all grew up step by step under such a background.

Perhaps their respective talents were not the strongest at the beginning, but with the help of various experiences and opportunities, they stood out among many contending geniuses, and only then did they have subsequent achievements.

Regarding the underlying rules that had been running for so long within the original universe, Ye Yun didn't actually have many opinions. This was basically the case with rules in all worlds; resources could not possibly satisfy everyone's needs.

Such a utopian society was simply impossible.

Ye Yun didn't intend to subvert this operating logic, but he did want to try to add his own ideas and wishes to it.

In fact, Ye Yun's approach was very simple: within the Human Alliance, he would implement the principle of voluntariness, giving those who wanted to continue to improve, or who had high expectations for the future stage of the strong, a choice.

This opportunity was that Ye Yun would provide them with the resources to improve, helping them overcome difficulties they could never have overcome before, but without involving too much excessive assistance.

Much of the ineffective time spent polishing was indeed of no help to cultivation, and this definitely needed to be abolished.

However, Ye Yun didn't want to forcibly interfere with the specific cultivation process. It required the persistence in the hearts of each strong individual to have a chance to succeed.

Ye Yun was only providing an opportunity; whether they could ultimately succeed depended on whether these strong individuals' wills were firm enough.

However, despite this, Ye Yun's support for the major powerhouses within the Human Alliance was still very strong.

Powerhouses at various stages, with the help of these resources, could immediately get out of their current predicament, at least having enough time to delve into other aspects of improvement besides divine bodies and strength.

Especially after entering the Undying stage, whether it was Undying, Universe Venerable, or even the Universe Master later on, the difference in divine bodies was also a key factor in the difference in combat power between the major powerhouses.

This was like the foundation of a powerhouse. If the foundation was not as good as others, then no matter how outstanding other aspects were, they would not be able to exert their strongest power.

The resources provided by Ye Yun were precisely to help these powerhouses smooth out their shortcomings in these areas, allowing them to devote more energy to improving other aspects.

It was precisely because of Ye Yun's efforts over the years that the previously strict divisions between the major realms had gradually become blurred.

Taking the Undying stage as an example, among the current Human Alliance, as long as they had received resource assistance, each of them could at least reach the level of a King.

This was the great help brought about by the improvement of the foundation. As for the division of combat power after the King stage, it depended on their mastery of laws and the cultivation of secret techniques.

The Undying stage was already like this, let alone the higher-level Universe Venerable realm.

Powerhouses who could achieve Universe Venerable, whether they advanced in ancient times or leaped forward after being sheltered by the Human Alliance, could all be called geniuses.

When these geniuses reached this realm, many of them, due to innate defects, lagged behind those geniuses in the progress of their divine bodies, which was obviously not a situation Ye Yun wanted to see.

Precisely because of this, after receiving Ye Yun's assistance, there were actually no longer any Universe Venerables at the initial or intermediate level within the current Human Alliance.

As long as one was a Universe Venerable, then they would naturally possess the combat power of a high-level Universe Venerable, which was beyond doubt.

Of course, even among high-level Universe Venerables, there were still certain differences in combat power, which could not be compensated for by resources.

However, for those who were equally talented, the resources provided by Ye Yun could make up for some of the time gap, thereby shortening the distance with those veteran powerhouses.

People like Bolan and the Illusory Sky King were able to defeat those veteran Universe Overlords, which was inseparable from the resources provided by the Human Alliance.

In Ye Yun's view, in this Universe Venerable stage of the Human Alliance Powerhouse Battle, the difference in strength between all the participating Universe Venerables was not as great as imagined.

Perhaps some truly top Universe Overlords would still have a certain crushing and suppressing effect on other Universe Venerables, but they could no longer be as invincible as before.

Moreover, among many Universe Venerables, there were certain restraining relationships in terms of laws, secret techniques, and fighting styles.

With such restraining relationships existing, the outcome of victory or defeat would become even more unpredictable.

Because of this, Ye Yun didn't particularly value the final result of this Universe Venerable-level Powerhouse Battle.

Instead, Ye Yun wanted to see the process and progress of each match, to see if any Universe Venerables could give Ye Yun a bright feeling.

To be honest, at the Universe Venerable level, Ye Yun back then, as well as Luo Feng, had both done the best that everyone could do.

Whether it was the divine body, soul, spirit, will, etc., as long as it was a dimension possessed by the Universe Venerable level, the two had reached the peak position.

So now, looking at the battles at the Universe Venerable level again, Ye Yun should not be interested in anything.

However, the reason why Ye Yun came to watch this time, and had the idea of watching from beginning to end, was because when many powerhouses were together, it was possible to spark completely different sparks.

These sparks were undoubtedly a springboard for them to move towards a higher realm.

For themselves, due to the limitations of experience and vision, perhaps they possessed a springboard but didn't know which direction to move in.

Ye Yun could completely, at this level, give all the participating Universe Venerables a guiding role.

If Ye Yun discovered in the process of battle that the other party possessed greater potential and a better upper limit in the future, then Ye Yun would directly point it out, and would not allow them to be like pearls covered in dust.

For these Universe Venerables under his command, especially those who originated from the original universe, Ye Yun still valued them quite highly.

After all, those geniuses who were cultivated from scratch, the hope of achieving a higher realm in the future, was definitely not as good as these veteran powerhouses who had experienced thousands of trials and tribulations early on.

As long as a small group of these people broke through to a higher realm, then Ye Yun's investment at this moment would be completely worthwhile.

As the first round of battles at the Universe Venerable level ended, after a short period of rest, all the Universe Venerables, regardless of which player pool they were in, received a prompt from the virtual universe system at the same time.

In this short period of time, the virtual universe system had already selected opponents for their second round based on their previous performance in the first round and their respective player pools.
