Chapter 613 568: Heavenly Dao Blood Mark_2
Jin Xi said: "Heavenly Dao Blood, why would such a thing appear!"
Lu Xuanji said: "Something big is going to happen, the heavens are about to collapse!"
Just then, the blood rain disappeared.
It lasted less than ten breaths, then dissipated, leaving only the gaping blood rift in the sky, savage and immense.
In the firmament above, that blood rift seemed close at hand, yet was actually as distant as the horizon, wanting to touch it was hopelessly out of reach.
Buzz buzz!
At this moment, the will of the Heavenly Dao was awakening, thoughts were being transmitted.
Those low-level Cultivators, their cultivation too weak to sense the messages of the Heavenly Dao; but once reaching Divinity Transformation, divine thoughts were sharp and could receive the information.
Yet precisely because they received the information, many Cultivators turned pale.
...
Outside the wilderness, above the void.
Jin Xi, receiving the information, showed changes in expression, thoughts flickering, after a long while said: "Husband, something truly big is happening! Who would have thought, the world beyond is about to invade, a world war is about to erupt, at most three thousand years, the two worlds will completely connect!"
"By then, a battle of life and death will occur!"
Receiving the information, Jin Xi's face turned pale, no longer a trace of composure.
Three thousand years, seemingly very long.
Many Foundation Establishment Cultivators have lifespans of only two hundred and forty years; Purple Mansion life expectancy is four hundred and eighty years, Golden Core lifespan is a thousand years, Nascent Soul lifespan is two thousand years, Divinity Transformation lifespan is five thousand years.
For most lower-level Cultivators, the world war is irrelevant to them.
Because by then, they deplete their lifespan and die on the spot.
As for Divinity Transformation Cultivators, most are unlucky enough to experience that life and death battlefield, becoming participants in the war.
"The invasion from the world beyond is still far away?"
Lu Xuanji slightly frowned, calculating with his fingers.
In his perception, the bloody rift in the sky was a gateway to the convergence of worlds, initially could only accommodate Foundation Establishment Cultivators, later could accommodate Purple Mansion Cultivators, Golden Core Cultivators, and after three thousand, Tribulation Crossing Cultivators could cross directly.
This is a time limitation, as well as a world limitation.
If the time has not arrived, and one arrives early in a certain world, one's own cultivation will be suppressed, potentially ten of one's power reduced to one, killed by some weaker individual.
Small skirmishes will occur in the earlier stages, until three thousand years later a great war will erupt.
Lu Xuanji reassured: "Xi'Er, do not worry, we are still very safe. When the heavens collapse, there are those Tribulation Crossing elites, Harmonization masters, Void Refining experts behind the front lines, and our small Divinity Transformation Cultivators are not yet needed to stand in front. We are indeed very safe!"
"In my perception, our Purple Mansion Realm in the Endless Void is not considered a weak world. It once birthed nearly over a hundred Immortals, some of whom even became prominent figures in the Immortal Realm. Our world's foundation is quite profound, common Great Thousand Worlds are merely easy targets!"
"Furthermore, the world war holds benefits for us, it's an infinite opportunity. In ordinary times, world resources are limited, world Destiny is limited, we Cultivators can only enter a frenzied internal struggle. Many Demon Cultivators perish within such harsh competition, without hope for Immortal Dao."
"Is it due to poor aptitude, poor comprehension, or lack of opportunity? None of these... It's the world resources that are insufficient, leading to the abandonment of some prodigies. But now, as the two worlds are interconnected, we don't need to be stuck in internal struggles, we can expand externally, seize resources and Destiny from the other world, constantly growing, significantly increasing the probability of becoming Immortal."
"The Purple Mansion Realm of yesteryears, was merely a very small world, only the Ancestor Continent existed. Yet in the prolonged course of worlds colliding, it continually invaded and devoured other worlds. In my perception, the Purple Mansion World has at least annexed ten Great Thousand Worlds, world territory is steadily expanding, much stronger than its initial stage!"
Jin Xi said: "But if we lose, will all the Cultivators of the Purple Mansion Realm perish!"
Lu Xuanji pondered, sensed the transformation of Celestial Secrets, said: "No! If the Purple Mansion World is annexed by an external world, lower and ordinary people, Qi Refining Cultivators, Foundation Establishment Cultivators, will be minimally affected. But Purple Mansion Cultivators, Golden Core Cultivators, Nascent Soul Cultivators, Divinity Transformation Cultivators will face calamity, all will perish!"
"Void Refining Cultivators, Harmonization Cultivators, Tribulation Crossing Cultivators, etc., they can sever ties with the Heavenly Dao, repay Cause and Effect, escape at times of crisis, and even betray the interests of the Purple Mansion Realm at critical moments, receiving rewards from the otherworldly Heavenly Dao, soaring to the skies!"
"It's like two nations clashing, the ordinary populace can choose surrender, the high-ranking authorities can surrender, but only the middle level has no choice, they must fight to the death."
Speaking with a faint hint of helplessness.
The Great Thousand Worlds, nurtured the Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao, only has vague thoughts, vague ideas, control over all beings is extremely limited, relying only on Destiny changes and hidden Cause and Effect to exert influence, but there are too many variables and uncertainties within.
Many Cultivators betray their world, becoming traitors in significant numbers.
As for the Heavenly Dao, the Karmic Force and calamity it brings indeed have certain lethal effects but are not impossible to resolve.
Jin Xi said: "Husband is saying that during times of war, be wary of certain Cultivators becoming traitors, betraying the Heavenly Dao, and even scheming against us!"
Lu Xuanji said: "When two worlds clash, it's like two businesses engaging in a trade war, one may directly annex the other. In such a game, distinguishing good from evil is difficult, distinguishing positions is hard, it's more about weighing pros and cons."
"Ordinary people say it well, as long as the money is enough, you can sell the business to others!"
"Similarly, if the price offered by the otherworldly Heavenly Dao is high enough, top-tier Cultivators from our world would not mind being traitors. To many top-tier Cultivators, there's no longer right or wrong, especially those stuck at a bottleneck, difficult to advance or achieve titles..."
These insights are not his conclusion but information given by the Heavenly Dao.
Within the information provided by the Heavenly Dao, if during the otherworldly war, one kills an opposing Cultivator, they can seize the other's Destiny; if one makes significant contributions during battle, they may be bestowed with Destiny, or even become the fated one, immortality within reach.
In the information from the Heavenly Dao, Blood Rain descended upon more than a thousand places in the Purple Mansion Realm, aiding Cultivators in Washing Marrow and Shaving Hair.
The places where Blood Rain descends also form so-called fated ones.
The fated ones inherit the Destiny of the Purple Mansion Realm, in danger they can turn misfortune into fortune, turn calamities into blessings; when facing calamity, falling off a cliff, they can directly acquire treasures from predecessors; similarly, when encountering a formidable enemy, that enemy may experience a mental lapse, falling into an idiotic state.
With the arrival of Blood Rain, form over a thousand fated ones.
Lu Xuanji is one of the fated ones.
These fated ones, some cultivation are merely Foundation Establishment, some are just Golden Core, some have already reached Void Refining, even Harmonization.
Many fated ones will uphold the world's Destiny, conducting a fierce battle with the otherworld.
During numerous battles, if any Cultivator can aid the world in annexing the otherworld, they will become the fated one of the Purple Mansion Realm, certain to receive supreme Creation, Ascension to Immortality.
"I am considered a fated one, yet I do not know who the remaining nine hundred and ninety-nine are? However, it's uncertain, if someone kills us fated ones, seizes our Destiny, they will become new fated ones!" Lu Xuanji sighed: "The fated ones are just hard to kill, not impossible to slay!"
"The Heavenly Dao is using us as targets!"
After a moment of thought, Lu Xuanji and Jin Xi glimmered with Golden Light beneath their feet, and vanished away.
