Unlocking The Easy Mode Of Cultivation After Getting Married

Chapter 761: Chapter 759: Supreme Attack on Heaven
 

Qin Changqing stood high above the world, watching their discussion without speaking.

“You’re right, perhaps it was because there was always only one thriving world in the Chaos Sea, the world’s decline was mistaken for the decline of an era.”

Next to him, the Ancient Emperor spoke softly.

The Ancient Emperor’s gaze had long since transcended any single world, instead encompassing the Myriad Realms of the Heavens.

In the past, due to the rampant “Great Terror,” only one world in the Chaos Sea could flourish in an era.

Or rather, it was the growth of that world that initiated an entirely new epoch.

“The Great Terrors,” too, knew how to farm.

For many eras, the Great Terrors lay in wait in the shadows, ready to surge forth and harvest as the era reached its zenith.

Hence, the replacement of worlds was the succession of eras.

However, there was one question: if it was like farming, why not cultivate several?

Qin Changqing pondered for a moment before entering the Mountain and River Map.

Inside was where he kept his treasured concubines, those female “Great Terrors.”

They needed prolonged slumbers.

Three of them had already been thoroughly subdued by Qin Changqing, but a few still resisted.

Especially that Quasi-Emperor Great Terror.

Though she had not surrendered, Qin Changqing did not care. Whenever he felt like it, he would bully her.

“Tell me, why did you not let several worlds grow?”

Qin Changqing came to one of the “Great Terrors” that had submitted, woke her, and asked.

“Which world grows is not for us to decide, but there is a pattern: if only one world exists in an era, then the transition of that era happens more swiftly,” the “Great Terror” replied.

Qin Changqing then asked, “If you harvest multiple worlds, wouldn’t you gain more benefits?”

“Indeed, harvesting more would bring greater benefits, but what we truly desire is to advance further on the Evil Ghost Dao. Compared to mere harvesting of worlds, the benefits of hastening the turnover of eras are greater,” she explained.

“Moreover, if we allow too many worlds to develop, there’s a risk they grow beyond our control, giving rise to countless powerful beings, just like now.”

This “Great Terror” was quite frank.

“Why do you gain more benefits from the transition of eras?” Qin Changqing inquired.

The “Great Terror” opened her mouth as if to speak, but ultimately, she remained silent.

“I can’t say,” she said.

Qin Changqing did not press the “Great Terror” further.

Not being able to speak was not due to her unwillingness but likely related to the Evil Ghost Dao. Should she spill the secrets, the Evil Ghost Dao might abandon her.

He needed to first ascertain the cause of the decline of the Three Realms.

In the following time, Qin Changqing spent a long time in the Immortal World, working with many Saints and Great Dao Saints from the Qin family, as well as the Ancient Emperor, in search of the reason.

The other Saints of the Three Realms were very cooperative.

They did whatever Qin Changqing instructed them to do.

The Immortals of the entire Immortal World also followed orders very well; if Qin Changqing asked them to cease their cultivation for a million years, they would obediently comply.

Thus, after a few thousand years, Qin Changqing finally glimpsed a clue.

That day,

Qin Changqing’s will entered the Origin Sea of the Immortal World.

The Origin Sea of the Immortal World was incomparably vast, and it continued to grow more robust each day, yet it did not replenish the world in the slightest.

Qin Changqing’s will shook violently.

The entire Origin Sea roared to life.

“Found you,” he said.

Then, Qin Changqing’s will surged towards a particular direction.

In that place, a colossal will was forced out by Qin Changqing.

Under Qin Changqing’s indomitable will, this immensely terrifying and vast presence, which even the Immortal Emperor could not perceive or oppose, trembled.

“So that’s how it is.”

The will of the Ancient Emperor appeared.

The wills of many Great Dao Saints also emerged.

The cause of the world’s decline was discovered.

The world spirit had given birth to self-awareness!

This was the root of the issue.

“Heaven is heartless, treating all beings as straw dogs,” goes the saying, which depicts the ruthlessness and indifference of the heavens.

The heavens can be regarded as the world spirit.

Yet, the heartlessness and indifference of the heavens are not emotions but rather a consistent stance towards all things and beings under its domain.

In reality, it’s best when the heavens maintain such a state.

Operating according to the laws and rules of the natural order, even Saints should not overly interfere with the workings of the heavenly Dao.

What is truly feared is when the heavens become “empathetic.”

The heavens now had become “empathetic.”

It had given birth to self-awareness.

It could now be considered a living being.

Being alive, it had the instinct to seek advantages, which is to be selfish.

Why would it deplete its own origin to let the Immortals profit?

Not to mention, it absorbed far too many of people’s negative emotions.

Beings like Taiyi and Great Luo, they could maintain their state of mind unchanged, living for eons without facing a heart’s tribulation, precisely because through the Fruit of the Dao, they could excise all negativity from themselves.

But where did the excised negativity go?

Naturally, it dispersed into the world around them.

Then, it was absorbed by it.

Thus, after countless eons, even the heavens started to mutate,

also developing a sense of self, becoming selfish.

Therefore, it locked everything down, wishing to use the world essence to achieve its own transformation.

This led to a situation where, despite the world essence being robust, the Three Realms were in decline.

“I had some awareness of it at the beginning, but unfortunately, it was too late. My power was waning too fast. However, this creature thought it could monopolize the world essence; it did not expect that the Evil Ghost Dao is its nemesis.”

The Ancient Emperor finally understood.

After the world will developed self-awareness, it became selfish and locked down the world essence, causing the world to deteriorate.

The power of Saints and Great Dao Saints would also wane.

The world will attempted to use the world essence to complete its metamorphosis into a complete, independent life form.

Yet there was the “Great Terror.”

The “Great Terror” wielded the “Evil Ghost Dao,” which happened to be the nemesis of the world. Even if the world decayed, Saints and Great Dao Saints wouldn’t destroy their own world; instead, they’d find ways to save it.

But the “Great Terror” would, they would drain the world dry, then the world essence, and the world will would be left dumbfounded, with no choice but to reset.

That likely was the case for most of the transitions between eras in the past.

“If the heavens do not function, then replace them with another sky.”

Once the cause was identified, the solution became straightforward.

The Immortal Emperor might not be able to, but he, Qin Changqing, could.

At this moment, that world will had already started roaring and lunging at Qin Changqing.

This was a contest of wills, for only will could stand against it.

But this was the will of an entire world.

Even if the Immortal Emperor had discovered its will, he had no means to contend with it.

But Qin Changqing could!

He snorted coldly, his will colliding without showing any weakness.

Upon impact, that self-aware world will, wrought by Qin Changqing, suddenly weakened.

Qin Changqing didn’t bother with idle talk, his will crashing onward, again and again.

“No, I am the sky, and you are all but ants, loathsome ants!”

The world will issued a hysterical roar; it had not easily developed self-awareness and had just managed to lock down the world essence, thinking it was powerful enough to stand up to Qin Changqing.

But it never anticipated that Qin Changqing would be so frighteningly powerful.

How could it reconcile with its downfall?

But its unwillingness was futile, as Qin Changqing hummed softly, and with a slap, dissipated it.

“Boom!”

“Look, why is the sky bleeding?”

As the battle between Qin Changqing and the world will raged, the entire Three Realms trembled.

It wasn’t just the will of the Immortal World, but that of all the Three Realms.

The battle lasted a long time.

Yet for Qin Changqing, it was very brief.

The reason being, as with the Saints’ Dao Integration, it felt like a short moment, but the world outside had already moved on.

This battle lasted for millions of years within the Three Realms.

During those millions of years, whether it was the Immortal World, the Devil Immortal Realm, or other realms,

even in the numerous Spirit Domains, Demon Domains, and other domains, the sky bled.

This terrified countless people.

The sky was bleeding!

This was an unprecedented event.

Why was the sky bleeding? Could it be that a major disaster was imminent?

Within a Spirit Domain, countless cultivators were panic-stricken, as if doomsday had arrived.

At that time, a grand passageway suddenly appeared in the sky,

and then, an Immortal descended from above.

“An Immortal has come!”

Countless cultivators looked up in awe.

“The heavens are unkind; one supreme being challenges the heavens. There’s no need for panic.”

The voice of that Immortal calmed the many cultivators.

Such events were happening in countless Spirit Domains.

After the Immortal descended to the lower realms, they left behind stone steles to record the event, as the war had lasted quite some time.

Millions of years, in the Immortal World, might not be much.

But in the many Spirit Domains, it was different.

That was unknown numbers of generations, countless cultivators!

And in the numerous Spirit Domains, a legend of the supreme being challenging the heavens was born.
