Xu Zhi did not reply to Carolyn's words.
Only he knew how shocked he was right now.
The difficulty of breaking through to the 10th rank was much greater than he had imagined. One could imagine why the 10th rank was so rare, to the extent that … they only existed in ancient legends.
"Thank you so much."
Carolyn's voice was hoarse in the arms of the ancient god. She was a little emotional as she said softly.
"The first reaction of those who have broken through to the 9th rank is … that there can't be a 10th rank in this world! That's because they realized that four genes is the limit, and it's impossible to fuse with a fifth gene. They will remain at the 9th rank for the rest of their lives … "
It was as if she could see the history of the entire universe. She could see the history of all the sages who had achieved the Dao in the river of time.
"Yes, the moment they break through to the Dao in the universe, it must be the greatest joy of their lives. They grasped the laws and twisted them …
That's because they have already surpassed those who achieved the Dao in the universe! "
Carolyn was still murmuring. It seemed like she was pouring out her heart, but it also seemed like she was talking to herself. "However, after experiencing the greatest joy of life, they will definitely feel a sense of despair and destiny."
"Yes, because at that time, they will definitely realize that they have no more paths to walk. They will already feel their destiny, and they will stand at the end of their lives.
How do they break through?
How do they break through?
How do they break through?
They began to crazily spend their entire lives searching for that path until death arrived. They wailed in despair, their heads of white hair floating in the void of the universe. Their turbid eyes were already filled with confusion as they welcomed their own deaths.
That kind of bitterness, sorrow, and despair is indescribable. It's definitely, definitely … indescribable. "Carolyn's voice choked." It's a sense of destiny that is crueler than death. "
She wasn't sad for herself, but for all the great people who had achieved the Dao that surpassed the laws of the universe.
Which of those who could achieve the Dao in the path of the 9th rank wasn't an unimaginably talented genius?
One had to know that in the tens of thousands of years of development of the Tyr Empire, there hadn't been one!
And even if they broke through, they would face …
Carolyn closed her eyes as a trace of pain flashed through them.
To be able to reach the ninth level, they were definitely the most devout pursuers of the Dao, fanatics who pursued the 'truth'. They crawled on the path of seeking the truth from a young age, fervently, sincerely, passionately, and overcame all obstacles …
And he was also one of them.
There was no difference between pursuing the Great Dao and pursuing the truth.
Their strong sense of fated despair, despair, he could also feel it.
For those who had achieved the Dao, the greatest fear in life was not how bumpy the path to the truth was, or how difficult the pursuit of knowledge was, but the inability to cultivate, and the inability to continue pursuing their own truth.
"I've already seen the entire situation, and I've deduced what the rank nine heavens of the universe will face …. It's like a curse of the universe. After they break through, they'll live the most miserable hundred thousand years, because they have no chance of breaking through."
"Low-level, middle-level, and high-level nine are merely thresholds for the accumulation of energy. They can no longer advance. They can no longer cultivate their genes … They can no longer cultivate anything else."
"At first, they thought that after breaking through to the ninth level, they could continue to integrate the fifth gene and continue cultivating, but they didn't know that … the ninth level can no longer be integrated into their genes, and the door to the future is closed to them!"
Apart from grief, she also felt a lingering fear.
And she, on the other hand, had transcended that terrible and miserable fate. It was simply a great fortune!
If it weren't for the super ancient gods and the foundation of these eras, she would basically be one of those pitiful pursuers of the Dao, unable to move forward for the next hundred thousand years.
Would she commit suicide?
She didn't know.
However, if she couldn't pursue her own truth, she would be completely stuck in the realm, and there would be no hope in the future. It was like the greatest torture for those who sought the Dao, and those who sought the truth, a hundred thousand years of torture.
After spending tens of thousands of years at a loss, there might still be those who had achieved the Dao in despair who chose to commit suicide.
Carolyn was filled with emotions. Her expression became complicated, and she completely admired him. "It's all thanks to you! You also let Di Zun, the three of us who had stopped the battle, forcibly break through … Otherwise, we were destined to walk on the wrong path. "
Yes.
At that time, Di Zun had stopped them from breaking through. He probably knew the way to break through to level ten to prevent them from being foolish.
It seemed that Di Zun had beaten them up badly, but it was all for their own good … Thinking of this, Carolyn's eyes were filled with a trace of admiration and gratitude.
Fate was always so strange. A single turn of events determined the two ends of one's future, life and death.
Only she knew that everything she had was given to her by the super ancient god.
The super ancient god said, "Yes, as you said … But sometimes, not knowing is the most blissful … Even if they knew the secret to breaking through to level ten, they would still feel pain, and there would be no difference …"
The super ancient god smiled and said lightly, "After all, so what if they knew? How difficult is it to perfect four genes? "
"It's already a miracle for most existences to break through to level nine."
"In the eight thousand years of being a god, to be able to walk one or two paths to the end … to break through to level nine is already very lucky."
"Not knowing the truth might still be blissful. At least there is still hope. Those level nine existences will spend their whole lives searching for the secret to break through to level ten that doesn't exist. They will travel to the ruins of various universes, looking for the remains of ancient existences …
If they knew the truth, they would be even more desperate. Even when they were level eight gods, in order to reach the impossible perfect four genes, they would have died long ago. It would be impossible for them to even break through to level nine. "
The super ancient god said lightly.
Carolyn's expression became more and more solemn. "Life, the path of cultivation, is it always so hopeless? Most of them breaking through to level nine means 100,000 years of hopelessness? "
"If it continues like this, most of them will face 100,000 years of great despair!"
The super ancient god touched Carolyn's hair and said, "Fighting against the heavens, fighting against nature … is an extremely stupid thing to do. Many times, it is best for mortals to not embark on the path of cultivation. Although that kind of life is short, it is full of happiness … Mortals are envious of the high and mighty gods, and use their 'lifespan' to determine success or failure, it is an extremely ridiculous thing …
"Training in seclusion, fighting against the heavens, almost never having a life of their own. So what if it's 100,000 years?"
The super ancient god was silent for a while, then softly said to Carolyn, "I hope you don't blame me for changing your life and bringing you on this path of cultivation."
"I'm actually very grateful."
Carolyn smiled, her expression was calm as she said, "I've already avoided many, many things. Even now, with your help, I've survived the curse of reaching level nine and have the chance to reach level ten in the future."
"It's just a chance."
The super ancient god was silent in the end. The path of level ten was much scarier than the path of level nine.
He did not know what to say, so in the end, he just sighed and said, "The path of level ten is still unimaginably long. It is not something ordinary lifeforms can reach … But, as long as I'm still alive, I will do my best to help you reach the end."
