Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel-Chapter 1013 - 570: Heavenly Fate, Another Path_2

Chu Zheng looked at him, gently shook his head, and said in a calm tone:

"Immortals have existed since ancient times and will exist in future generations; they were not created by Xumi Sheng, nor do you need to worry about them."

His gaze pierced through the ages, looking towards the future:

"In later generations, there will be an epoch where the Immortal Path flourishes alone, and the river of space-time alternates as it ought to."

"In any era, the Taoist Orthodoxy will persist, growing silently in corners. When one path becomes impassable, living creatures will inevitably attempt to carve out another path; this is unavoidable."

"In any era, there will never be a shortage of pathfinders and successors. The unfinished paths of the predecessors will naturally be slowly completed by the future generations."

His gaze refocused on Yun Tianji, carrying a faint hint of pity: "Xumi Sheng, including you, is merely a tiny figure among many. The Immortal Path neither begins with him nor prospers because of him."

Yun Tianji was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, his eyes flickering with a slight realization, which then turned into a deeper sense of relief.

He shook his head slightly, and even the corners of his lips curled into a faint arc of self-mockery:

"The scenery in your eyes is beyond my reach."

"From ancient times, success defines the king, and failure the bandit. From the ancient times, you’ve prepared numerous back-up plans until today, and in this world, you’ve received the support of many noble individuals. The heavenly mandate rests with you, not me."

He acknowledged failure candidly, with no resentment in his tone, only calmness:

"Just take the fortune then."

With these words, he slowly closed his eyes, saying no more, voluntarily dispersing the Immortal Dao Laws around him, with no intention of resisting.

Originally, Chu Zheng had only thirty percent of the Heavenly Fate. Relying on his own foundation and these additional twenty-five percent, there might still be room for struggle or a chance of victory.

Yet in the face of Chu Zheng, who now held fifty-five percent of the Heavenly Fate and was at his peak, any resistance would be a futile fight of a trapped beast, only appearing more embarrassing and humiliating.

Rather, he chose to preserve this final dignity for himself.

In the battle of the Dao, losing simply means losing.

Chu Zheng looked at his calm readiness for death, his expression remaining calm, as he spoke mildly:

"I previously promised the Moonlight Immortal Ancestor to give the Immortal Path a chance of survival, and naturally, I will. You need not worry too much."

Before the words had fully left his mouth, he raised his hand, pointed like a sword, and gently pointed at Yun Tianji.

Yun Tianji’s form, condensed by Heavenly Fate, began to fracture inch by inch like sand in the wind, disintegrating into the most original Heavenly Fate, and finally vanished completely into nothingness.

A broken jade token, edges displaying irregular fractured marks, emerged where he disappeared, emitting a gentle and restrained mysterious radiance.

Heavenly Power Fragment.

It was also the last piece.

In an instant, the twenty-five percent of Heavenly Fate belonging to the Immortal Path lost its final constraint, pouring into Chu Zheng like a collapsed celestial river.

Chu Zheng paid no mind to the fluctuations of this Heavenly Fate, reaching out to grasp the last Heavenly Power Fragment in his hand.

The fragment felt cool to the touch, and without any hesitation, he operated his Original Dao Seed, completely absorbing it and merging it with himself.

At the moment when the three Heavenly Power Fragments fused into one, an unprecedented feeling flooded his heart, and in that instant, he seemed to connect with the entire Great Universe, with heaven and earth in his grasp.

Heaven and earth, all laws, seemed to be at his whim. He felt as if he had become the embodiment of these rules, the true Heavenly Lord of this realm.

The complete Heavenly Power was now fully in his hands.

However, amidst this ultimate sense of authority, Chu Zheng slightly furrowed his brows.

He did not feel the sense of Perfection.

This portion of Heavenly Power seemed to still have something missing. A layer of invisible veil still lingered over this complete Heavenly Power, or perhaps a critical core element remained beyond his true grasp.

Reincarnation Road.

In the Heaven Burial Palace, the Master of Heavenly Fortune had once told him that the first thing to do upon returning to the world was to open the Reincarnation Road and slay his Good Corpse Divine Thought.

Clearly, this final missing piece, the ultimate answer, still lay upon the Reincarnation Road.

As Chu Zheng completely absorbed the Immortal Path’s last twenty-five percent of Heavenly Fate, returning the Heavenly Power to wholeness, a great upheaval occurred throughout the entire Great Universe.

Throughout the broken Great Immortal Realm and scattered across the vast Great Universe, all cultivators of the Immortal Path, regardless of cultivation level or location, were struck as if by lightning.

Countless Immortal Path Cultivators felt their immortal power rapidly fading like a receding tide, the clearly perceptible Heaven and Earth Laws becoming vague as if separated by a thick wall.

During cultivation, the influx of Spiritual Energy slowed drastically, and its circulation within the meridians became exceedingly difficult, like moving under the burden of a ten thousand-pound weight, with every step accompanied by tearing pain.

Breaking through bottlenecks had become a distant luxury, and even maintaining their current realm felt beyond reach, with their Dao Foundation showing faint cracks.

This sensation was not experienced for the first time.

They had once felt such foundational instability when the Heavenly Fortune Immortal Tablet shattered.

But this time, the feeling was clearer and more thorough, as if the towering pillar supporting their Dao path had completely collapsed at this moment.

The sky of the Immortal Path had collapsed for the second time.

But this time, it collapsed more thoroughly, leaving no room for luck.

Holding the complete Heavenly Power and bearing eighty percent of the Heavenly Fate, Chu Zheng’s perception now covered the entire Great Universe.

In an instant, he sensed the aura of the other four Heavenly Fates, like lighthouses in the dark, shining brightly in his perception.
