This time, it was the Saint of Destruction's turn to stand up. He bowed to Ping Jiukong and said in a sincere tone, "Brother Ping, please enlighten me."
Ping Jiukong hurriedly gestured for Wang Lun to sit down, and then said, "Although I have not seen the Great Art of Destruction, but I guess that the essence of the Great Art of Destruction is definitely the word destruction. In order for the Great Art of Destruction to be strong, the Dao Aura of Destruction had to be strong. Brother, do you know what is the most terrifying destruction in the vast universe? "
Wang Lun hesitated for a moment before answering, "Is it the Cataclysm?"
Ping Jiukong nodded, "That's right, it's the Cataclysm. More accurately, it's the World-Ending Cataclysm. If you can fuse the dao ripples of the World-Ending Cataclysm into your Great Art of Destruction, whose Great Art of Destruction would be stronger than yours? "
Hearing this, Wang Lun clenched his fists in excitement. Cataclysm, Cataclysm …
Naturally, he had heard of the World-Ending Cataclysm. Such a Cataclysm had happened before. That was the collapse of the universe. All planets and domains would be turned into nothingness by the Cataclysm. If this terrifying power was integrated into a god art, what other god art could compare to it?
However, Wang Lun soon came to his senses. He looked at Ping Jiukong doubtfully and asked, "Brother Ping, once the World-Ending Cataclysm arrives, we will all be ants. If we don't even have our lives, how can we infuse the dao ripples of the World-Ending Cataclysm into the Great Art of Destruction? Moreover, even if we managed to survive, we wouldn't be able to infuse such a terrifying dao aura of the World-Ending Cataclysm into our sacred arts. "
Ping Jiukong smiled faintly, "Brother Wang only knows part of the story. Even though the World-Ending Cataclysm is frightening, it won't destroy every world. The World-Ending Cataclysm is also targeted. Think about it, how vast is the universe? How could a single Cataclysm wipe it all out?
Moreover, even if it was a world domain destroyed by the World-Ending Cataclysm, there would still be planets or world domains that survived. The Great Desolation Universe had never experienced the World-Ending Cataclysm and there were many other universes like the Great Desolation Universe. Actually, the plane that we are on didn't experience the World-Ending Cataclysm. At the very most, it was just a ripple effect. I believe that Brother Wang should have heard of the previous World-Ending Cataclysm right? "
"I've heard of it." Wang Lun nodded. He had naturally heard of how terrifying the previous World-Ending Cataclysm was. Countless cultivation worlds, Immortal Worlds and Divine Worlds collapsed. Countless cultivators were turned into nothingness under the Cataclysm and fell into the void. At that time, no matter how strong you were, you would still be an ant in front of the World-Ending Cataclysm.
After saying that, Wang Lun thought for a while and added, "I heard that during that calamity, an ultimate expert contributed a brand new universe. Is the universe we live in related to the universe contributed by that expert?"
Ping Jiu Kong said, "You're right, but you're also wrong. Yes, it was because during the World-Ending Cataclysm, there was indeed an expert who contributed his own universe. If it wasn't for that expert, some would have been turned into nothingness by the World-Ending Cataclysm. What was wrong was that after the World-Ending Cataclysm erupted for a period of time, it was forcefully stopped by that expert. Otherwise, how could we have survived? Because the World-Ending Cataclysm was stopped before it reached our world, we have only heard of it but not seen it for ourselves.
After so many years, the world we live in and the other worlds that weren't affected by the World-Ending Cataclysm should have already fused with the universe contributed by that expert. "
"Please enlighten me." This was the second time Wang Lun clasped his fists.
He knew that in the vast universe, perhaps only the Sage Wan Ding in front of him knew about this.
Ping Jiu Kong continued, "That expert's breadth of mind was unprecedented. If it was anyone else, they wouldn't be able to do it. However, he did it. He gave up his own universe and saved countless lives that were struggling under the Cataclysm. Later on, because that expert brought out a few Dao Laws and his sacred arts, the World-Ending Cataclysm didn't continue. Instead, it got weaker and weaker.
The universe contributed by that expert fused with the universe that was already collapsing, forming a brand new universe. This brand new universe shouldn't have stopped expanding. Instead, it should have continued to fuse with other worlds that weren't affected by the Cataclysm. For example, the world we live in. "
"We live in this brand new universe?" Wang Lun came to an understanding.
"That's right. Now, this brand new universe is gradually becoming as boundless as it was before the World-Ending Cataclysm." Ping Jiu Kong said.
Wang Lun didn't say anything. He knew that Ping Jiu Kong wouldn't say all this for no reason.
Indeed, Ping Jiu Kong continued, "Whether it's a Sage or a mortal, they all have their own selfish motives. Even that expert that saved countless lives in the vast universe was no exception. He also had some selfish motives. He lived in a place called Zhen Xing. Thus, when Zhen Xing was about to be destroyed by the World-Ending Cataclysm, he used a Dao Law of the Universe to protect Zhen Xing. Using his own strength, he sealed the dao ripples of the World-Ending Cataclysm on Zhen Xing. Thereafter, for some unknown reason, that supreme expert never appeared again. However, the sealed dao aura of the World-Ending Cataclysm is still on that planet … "
Wang Lun finally understood. He asked excitedly, "Brother Ping, you're saying that I can fuse with this World-Ending Cataclysm?"
Ping Jiu Kong smiled and nodded, "That's right. Because if the World-Ending Cataclysm still exists in the vast universe, there's a 99% chance that only Zhen Xing's Dao Law is left. If you were to fuse with this Dao Law, so what if someone else obtained the Great Art of Destruction? Moreover, your Great Art of Destruction fused with Zhen Xing's World-Ending Cataclysm. To Zhen Xing, it would be a good thing. It would resolve Zhen Xing's crisis. "
"Then how do I go to Zhen Xing?" Wang Lun asked anxiously.
As for whether it would resolve Zhen Xing's crisis, he didn't care. After fusing with Zhen Xing's World-Ending Cataclysm, he wouldn't hesitate to destroy Zhen Xing.
Ping Jiu Kong sighed in his heart. How could he not know what Wang Lun was thinking? The reason why he said those words was because he was afraid. If that expert were to appear and find out who destroyed Zhen Xing, the person who destroyed Zhen Xing would definitely regret being alive.
No matter how strong your Sage of Destruction was, in front of that expert, you wouldn't even be considered as an ant. Sage? Keke, how could the current Sages be compared to the Sages from before the World-Ending Cataclysm?
Before the World-Ending Cataclysm, the number of Sages could be counted with one's fingers. But now, Sages were as common as dogs and Quasi-Sages were everywhere.
Ping Jiu Kong muttered to himself for a while before saying, "We can't rush to go to Zhen Xing. I heard that Sage Ku Su has a positioning compass. This treasure has a high chance of finding the world domain where Zhen Xing is located. However, with our strength, we won't be able to go to Zhen Xing because we would be suppressed by the Laws of Heaven and Earth. After finding the location of Zhen Xing's world domain, we can go to the Saint Chamber of Commerce to get a Binding Dao Talisman. That way, we would be able to take away Zhen Xing's World-Ending Cataclysm. As for the World-Ending Cataclysm, I will go back and do some research to see if I missed anything. Also, if Sage Ku Su isn't able to find the location of Zhen Xing, I will see if I can find anything. If there are any new developments, I will inform Brother Wang immediately. "
The last sentence was said by Ping Jiu Kong for himself. Sage of Destruction Wang Lun had a weird temper and would kill people at any time. Therefore, Mo Wuji had to hold back.
Wang Lun bowed emotionally towards Ping Jiu Kong, "Many thanks Brother Ping for solving my big problem. I won't keep Brother Ping any longer. I hope that Brother Ping will inform me immediately if there are any new developments. "
Ping Jiu Kong also bowed back, "I have always admired Brother Wang. There's no need to be so courteous over such matters."
At this moment, Wang Lun was anxious to find Sage Ku Su. He needed to reach Zhen Xing as soon as possible. If Wang Lun could think of this, who could be sure that others couldn't?
…
When Yuan Xiangzu brought a few guards back to his residence in Luo Cui City, he was stunned. Even though he was chased out of the Yuan Clan, as a Channel Opening Stage Level 5 cultivator and with the Yuan Clan's status in Luo Cui City, his residence was still not bad.
But what was he looking at now? A pile of ruins.
"Who did this?" Yuan Xiangzu clenched his fists tightly as his entire body trembled in anger.
"Xiangzu, don't talk so much. Hurry and follow me." An anxious voice could be heard. Following which, a skinny man rushed forward and pulled Yuan Xiangzu away from this place.
"Youling, my residence has been destroyed and you're telling me not to talk so much?" Looking at the person pulling him away, Yuan Xiangzu said angrily.
The person pulling him was called Yuan Youling and could be considered Yuan Xiangzu's cousin. His aptitude was not much and could not even be compared to Yuan Xiangzu. He had some spiritual roots and opened two spirit channels. Now that he was at Channel Opening Stage Level 2, he was stuck at this stage and could not advance any further.
"It was done by the Xu Clan. Xu Beihe took a liking to your place and got people to raze it to the ground. He said that he wanted to build a big merchant house," Yuan Youling said in a low voice.
When the raging Yuan Xiangzu heard that it was the Xu Clan, his anger was instantly suppressed. If it was an ordinary person, he could still go and ask for the reason. But facing the Xu Clan, he did not dare to utter a single word. If he went against the Xu Clan, not only would he die, he would also bring harm to the entire Yuan Clan.
"I hate it," Yuan Xiangzu clenched his fists so tightly that his palms were about to bleed. In the end, he could only spit out these three words.
"You can't return to the Yuan Clan now. I'm worried that Xu Beihe destroyed your residence to find trouble with you. If you return to the Yuan Clan, Xu Beihe might vent his anger on the Yuan Clan and use this as an excuse to start a war, "Yuan Youling said softly.
"I know." Yuan Xiangzu forced himself to calm down. Over the years, Xu Beihe had bullied him a lot. The reason was that he had once taken away Xu Beihe's title as the number one genius. Although Xu Beihe's strength had now far surpassed him, Yuan Xiangzu, but if he did not like him, Yuan Xiangzu, then what could he do?
Yuan Youling said, "You should go to the Zuo Clan and hide. Even if Xu Beihe wants to do something, he would not dare to do anything to the Zuo Clan."
Yuan Xiangzu nodded. He knew about the Zuo Clan. Zuo Clan was the mother's surname, and the ancestor was Zuo Shaoying. He had heard that Zuo Shaoying did not have a spiritual root, but after marrying an ordinary hunter, she unexpectedly gave birth to a top-grade spiritual root. After that, Zuo Shaoying seemed to have cheated all the way, and her cultivation improved day by day.
Later, Zuo Shaoying gave birth to a son. According to the rules, if there was a True Cultivator in the couple, the child must follow the mother's surname. This was a form of respect for True Cultivators. Therefore, the Zuo Clan was passed down through Zuo Shaoying's bloodline until today.
Don't underestimate the Luo Cui City's Zuo Clan, which was not one of the three major forces. However, the Zuo Clan's influence was not limited to the Luo Cui City. In the real True Cultivator City, they could also call the wind and summon the rain. Therefore, the Luo Cui City's Zuo Clan was basically an existence that no one dared to provoke.
(That's all for today's update. Good night friends!)
