I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 265 - 35: Forging Nine Cauldrons, Marking Shenzhou (2/3)

"So, you plan to do something very dangerous."

"This thing is so dangerous that even if you are the current Witch King, you have to prepare an heir for yourself in advance."

Unknowingly pulling out the Celestial Destiny Bone Armor, Li Boyang, who had long anticipated this, asked in a solemn voice.

"It's been said that a thousand years ago, the Huai River Witch was proficient in divination, and you, her successor, have surpassed her…"

His gaze briefly stopped on the Celestial Destiny Bone Armor, and the "Witch King" seemed to seamlessly switch back to being Wu Yi.

"What else have you divined that you can tell me?"

Slightly hesitating, Li Boyang finally decided to be blunt.

"Not long after the great flood subsided, I divined a great calamity, perhaps even more terrifying than the flood."

"I deduced that the great calamity is related to Great Xia, and it might even be instigated by you personally."

"Speaking of the Path of Divination, it's actually quite simple..."

"The more information you know, the more accurate the results of the divination."

"So initially, I intended to wait quietly for this great calamity to arrive and then try my best to stay out of harm's way."

Upon hearing this, Wu Yi understood Li Boyang's thoughts.

"Hmm, with your abilities, staying out of harm's way is indeed an easy task."

"Then why did you suddenly change this idea?"

Squinting slightly, Li Boyang hesitated once more, then turned to look at Xiluo behind him.

"Sometimes, staying out of harm's way is not a perfect choice."

"In life, having lived so many years and experienced so many things, there are always some things that are hard to let go."

"For that, even if it means taking a bit of risk, so what?"

Vaguely understanding Li Boyang's meaning, Wu Yi looked at Xiluo in slight surprise.

Unlike the somewhat sluggish Xiluo, Wu Yi saw things much more clearly and spoke more sharply.

"You are doing it for her..."

"No, you are doing it for the Hundred Lands Mountain Range!"

With these words, before Li Boyang could express anything, Xiluo's eyes were already wide open with shock.

Even as sluggish as she was, after Wu Yi pointed out the key, she understood something.

Fortunately, before Xiluo could ask, Li Boyang had already started to explain proactively.

"You're right."

"When Xiluo told me that she also predicted this great calamity, I realized the seriousness of the problem."

"I was able to predict this great calamity because my Primordial Spirit and Path of Divination are well-developed, allowing me to sense any major events about to occur." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Especially when they concern myself, the innate spiritual sense is often incredibly accurate."

"But Xiluo's Primordial Spirit is far less developed than mine, and her divination methods are just beginning. How did she sense this great calamity?"

"There is only one answer: she is also within the calamity."

Speaking to this point, Li Boyang couldn't help but recall that image of "Xiluo" in his mind.

That half-human, half-beast Primordial Spirit demeanor, that calmly faint smile reminiscent of the Huai River Witch, was evidently some deliberate reminder.

Even the results that Xiluo thought she divined were hard to say that they were not influenced by that "Xiluo."

"I see!"

Nodding with understanding, Wu Yi finally realized why Li Boyang changed his mind.

If he were in the same situation, perhaps he would also fight for Great Xia.

"So what do you plan to do?"

"Do you plan to kill me here and end this great calamity early?"

Even though they were discussing his own life and death, Wu Yi's tone remained unexpectedly calm.

Of course, Wu Yi's words also indirectly admitted that he would indeed trigger the great calamity in the future.

"I did have such a thought before…"

"But just after this thought emerged, the future changed."

Not denying any intent to kill Wu Yi, Li Boyang sighed helplessly.

"The great calamity turned into a cataclysm, a cataclysm against all the Gods, and I am one of its sources."

The future holds infinite possibilities, especially when it comes to such a cataclysmic trend.

Li Boyang couldn't even determine whether it was he who turned the great calamity into a cataclysm.

Or was it the yet-to-emerge cataclysm that prompted him to want to kill Wu Yi?

"The future changed? A true cataclysm?"

Though Wu Yi's expression remained unchanged, his voice grew more excited.

"Does this mean that my upcoming plan is indeed feasible?"

After listening quietly till then, Xiluo could no longer hold back and interrupted their conversation.

"What kind of riddles are you playing? What's going on here?"

Though she spoke thus, Xiluo's gaze at Wu Yi was already filled with hostility, her entire body involuntarily changing back into her Red Leopard form.

"Don't worry, I'll explain it to you both gradually."

"After all, at least until now, we haven't reached the point of being mortal enemies, have we?"

Casually glancing at Xiluo, Wu Yi didn't seem to take her threat seriously.

"As I said before…"

"Previous Witch Kings have always been searching for a one-time solution to completely resolve the threat of the Gods."

"As long as the Gods exist, Great Xia will always face the risk of losing its sovereignty."

"Only by removing these Gods can Great Xia truly be the Great Xia of humanity, and only then can humanity have a new future."

"Therefore, all Witch Kings would, at the pinnacle of their power, gather the might of all Great Xia to forge a Divine Tripod."

"By my tenure, nine such Divine Tripods have been forged…"

After a brief pause, Wu Yi couldn't help but chuckle.

"I originally planned to take advantage of the flood stirred up by Wuzhiqi to weaken the power of the Gods in Great Xia to its extreme…"

"Then use the power of these nine Divine Tripods to suppress the Nine Provinces and create a super large 'Divine Prohibition Barrier.'"

"Within this Divine Land Barrier, the Gods will no longer be able to invoke a Celestial Disaster at will."

"Anyone who dares defy the 'Witch King' will be judged by the Divine Land Barrier!"

Listening to Wu Yi's description, Li Boyang abruptly interrupted.

"What about the 'Witch King'?"

"Without the Gods' balance, who will judge the Witch King?"

"I don't believe that with your wisdom, you can't realize what absolute power will lead to."

"What you're doing is merely creating a 'Great Celestial God,' one who possesses human will."

The accumulated wisdom and power of successive Witch Kings would inevitably give rise to a true Great Celestial God in the future.

If this Great Celestial God always stands with humanity, that's fine. But what if it loses control?

Even without losing control, given Wu Yi's current attitude, Li Boyang found it hard to believe he wouldn't cleanse other beings from the earth.

"In this world, 'human supremacy' is unworkable."
