Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times-Chapter 475 - 186: "The Demon Race Will Start the First Battle!"_3

Chapter 475: Chapter 186: “The Demon Race Will Start the First Battle!”_3

Human Race, Devil Clan, Demon Race, Dragon Clan.

Even some smaller races, such as the Dwarf Clan, were also making their preparations.

Every creature has its own path; mice have their burrows.

Not everyone was thinking of seizing a great opportunity in this turmoil; for many, mere survival was the primary goal. Particularly for those with low Cultivation, many with families have already sought refuge in the nearest cities.

Generally speaking,

Battles tend to avoid cities because the evil value brought about by destroying a city often means that one would be struck dead by a Heavenly Tribulation.

...

The higher the evil value, the more damaging the Heavenly Tribulation; this isn’t a joke.

Apart from needing to endure a Heavenly Tribulation when breaking through from the peak of Nascent Soul to Divinity Transformation, every small realm after attaining Divinity Transformation Cultivation also requires overcoming a Heavenly Tribulation.

Based on factors such as the strength of the Nascent Soul’s grade and the evil value,

they are divided into—

The First of the Nine Thunder Tribulations, Two Nine Thunder Tribulations… up to the Nine Nine Thunder Tribulations.

The First of the Nine Thunder Tribulations is the weakest, with only nine strikes. Each subsequent strike of the Tribulation is more powerful than the last, culminating in the Nine Nine Thunder Tribulations, consisting of eighty-one strikes.

The Nine Nine Thunder Tribulations can obliterate all unyielding Cultivators of Divinity Transformation into dust.

This is also why

hiding in a city during chaotic times is considered relatively safe. Of course, it’s only relatively safe. It’s undoubtedly better than being out in the wild, but if something like the situation in Evil State occurs, it wouldn’t make much of a difference. Take Quzhou for example; at this moment, all Cultivators are converging towards the nearby cities. Quzhou has completely entered an era without Divinity, as all three Divinity individuals there have gone into hiding and fled.

If a Divinity Transformation Cultivator were to invade Quzhou now, there would be no one to stop them.

An unprecedented vacuum of power.

Moreover, the black hole in the sky over Quzhou continues to leak Spiritual Energy, which only adds to many Cultivators’ sense of panic.

There are indeed many who have tried to use Evil Wood to repair the hole, just like the Xuantian Sect Saintess did a hundred years ago. However, even after throwing in hundreds of Evil Wood pieces, there has been no sign of the hole shrinking.

If this hole goes unaddressed, all of the Spiritual Energy of the Xuantian Continent will leak away. Naturally, Quzhou would be the first to suffer.

After all, the hole is directly overhead.

“Chen Qiu still hasn’t come?”

Inside “Great Yuan City,” the True Disciple from the Myraid Beast Sect, this Bai Yi woman, was sitting on the rooftop of a teahouse, staring absentmindedly at the black hole in the sky above her.

She had attempted to approach it, but the closer she got, the more intense the fear she felt in her heart became.

She retreated without getting too close and had tried throwing in seven or eight pieces of Evil Wood, to no avail; it was as if it made no difference at all.

And it wasn’t just Chen Qiu who hadn’t come.

Not a single sect from the central continent took action to deal with this matter. Everyone was preparing for the impending “Worldwide Strife” version, but no one cared about this black hole.

It seemed as though everyone had accepted that the Xuantian Continent would perish within a hundred years—the priority was to make the most of it before the inevitable destruction.

She had reached out to her sect, the Myraid Beast Sect.

The response from her master was,

“No way to deal with it, just wait.”

The meaning was clear.

Just wait for someone like the Xuantian Sect Saintess from a hundred years ago to address the matter, or wait for the Xuantian Continent’s Spiritual Energy to be completely depleted, entering the end-times.

This answer… felt somewhat absurd to her. It was a matter even more critical than the Worldwide Strife, but why was everyone acting so indifferent?

She even started to feel a sense of falseness about this world deep in her heart.

…

“Xiao Yue is still too young.”

In the central continent, inside the Myraid Beast Sect, a gaunt old man shook his head, looking towards Quzhou. Although he couldn’t see the hole above Quzhou, he could faintly sense the Spiritual Energy of nature escaping in that direction.

The matter was actually quite simple to resolve.

With enough Evil Wood, it could be easily fixed.

But that’s the catch.

To completely fill the hole, one would need more than just tens of thousands of Evil Wood pieces.

It requires a massive amount of Evil Wood.

Who would take the lead? Whoever takes the lead would have to put in more effort. Going to other forces to ask for Evil Wood is no simple task.

The stuff is valuable.

It can be used to enhance the power of one’s Golden Core Heavenly Pride during the path to Heaven half a year later, and it can serve many other purposes, such as building a Divine Domain, purifying dust-encrusted Heavenly Dao Spiritual Treasures, and so on.

Who would want to part with it for free, especially when it’s impossible to collect all the Evil Wood from the forces on the continent? Gathering enough Evil Wood from perhaps a third of the forces might suffice.

But the problem is this:

Who wants to make personal sacrifices and then have those who didn’t contribute enjoy the same benefits?

The person who takes the initiative to do this would be taking on a thankless task. Imagine how many would talk behind their back, how many they would offend.

Furthermore, it’s not just the Human Race on the Xuantian Continent; shouldn’t the Demon Race and the Devil Clan also contribute?

If the leading party has to pay for the purchasing, then which force would want to be that sucker?

And so—

An absurd situation took shape.

The sky above Quzhou was collapsing. If left untreated, the Spiritual Energy of the entire Xuantian Continent would continuously leak until it was depleted, plunging the world into the last of days.

Yet such a critical issue was being willfully ignored by all forces.

It was as if no one had even received news of it.
