Chunibyo in Cultivation World
Chapter 344 ·I’m Not Even an Immortal, So of Course It Was Useless
In the Spirit Dragon’s understanding, the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation truly existed. That was right, the Spirit Dragon remembered that quite a few immortals had once perished beneath this Immortal-Extermination Tribulation.
“That’s right, it’s precisely this Immortal-Extermination Tribulation.”
The Spirit Dragon believed this with incomparable certainty, and there were also quite a few immortals who believed just as firmly in the existence of this thing.
Even the immortals capable of sensing the existence of this Immortal-Extermination Tribulation all had this thought flash through their minds, gaining an answer for this calamity that had suddenly appeared, and that answer was the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation.
As long as one was an immortal and faced this Immortal-Extermination Tribulation, one was destined to perish, regardless of what kind of immortal one was.
Even a Supreme Great Luo Immortal would be instantly killed.
No one found this suddenly appearing consciousness and cognition strange. Perhaps those Supreme Great Luo Immortals who had approached transcendence without limit would have been capable of sensing that something was wrong!
As for Li Tianwei, he also immediately sensed this Immortal-Extermination Tribulation suspended in midair, but he had no idea what this thing was.
After all, under his Consciousness Projection, what had suddenly appeared suspended in midair was a strange kind of arrangement, much like how he had deduced the collision between the Heaven-Sustaining Alliance and the Immortal Heavenly Court.
“This is your method?”
Seeing this, Li Tianwei instantly understood why such a thing had appeared. Clearly, the Great Dao had discovered his existence and wanted to kill him.
Seeing this, Li Tianwei immediately returned a portion of his consciousness to his physical body.
In an instant, more than two thousand Dao Intents erupted at once, and the power of more than two thousand stars towered upward as terrifying pressure descended directly.
Within the sky that had originally been shrouded by dark clouds, rounds of stars appeared, their starlight spilling in every direction.
Li Tianwei slightly raised his head and looked toward the sky, his gaze blazing like fire without retreating even the slightest bit because of that inexplicable annihilating aura above.
It had to be said that the Great Dao was terrifying. If it said this was the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation, then this was the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation. As long as an immortal faced this Immortal Tribulation, the only outcome was annihilation.
As the confrontation between Li Tianwei and the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation grew increasingly intense.
The mortals of Immortal-Repelling City below could not help raising their heads and looking toward the horizon.
They instinctively felt that what was happening in the sky seemed to be extremely important to them and would also decide their future.
Sensing this, they involuntarily turned toward Li Tianwei’s direction.
At the same time, while Li Tianwei confronted it, the appearance of the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation also spread throughout the entire Immortal Realm.
As long as one was an immortal, an existence with even a little strength, a new piece of knowledge appeared within one’s consciousness.
There was a legend that the Immortal Realm possessed a type of tribulation capable of annihilating all immortals, and that was the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation.
“What is this Immortal-Extermination Tribulation, why don’t I remember it? No, I remember now, I saw it in some book before, and not only that! I’ve even seen it with my own eyes.”
“That’s right, it’s precisely that Immortal-Extermination Tribulation.”
“Does something like that exist? Something’s not right! Let me calculate it…… Eh, what am I calculating? The Immortal-Extermination Tribulation obviously exists.”
The cognition that the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation existed continuously spread outward. Some powerful existences could also sense a trace of something wrong, yet they found it difficult to restrain this suddenly appearing consciousness and memory, gradually acknowledging the existence of the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation.
Among them were Ancient Life, Lord of the Immortal Heavenly Court, as well as ancestors from other surviving factions.
Regardless of what kind of immortal they were, this thought would emerge, causing them to firmly believe in the existence of the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation.
As this cognition continuously intensified, the might of the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation also continuously accumulated, even reaching an unprecedented degree.
Even the power of more than two thousand stars radiating from Li Tianwei could not compare with it, because the existence of the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation had only one concept, exterminating immortals.
Boom……
At this moment, the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation also completed gathering its power, and destructive energy erupted.
In an instant, the heaven and earth that had originally been covered by dark clouds became bright as white dawn, and wherever the light reached, even space itself was annihilated.
This kind of erasure sought to completely destroy everything.
Even the space of heaven and earth was like this, so there was no need to mention anything else.
Seeing this, Li Tianwei inexplicably felt something strange.
“Strange, why does it feel like it poses no threat to me.”
Li Tianwei looked at the descending Immortal-Extermination Tribulation and the terrifying energy fluctuations that had reached the extreme, and such a thought surfaced in his mind.
He did not sense the aura of death from the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation. It was as though what stood before him was merely a paper tiger, completely useless.
Therefore, Li Tianwei did not even resist. Seeing this, the Book Spirits within the Sun–Moon Banner and Radiant Wheel were somewhat dumbfounded.
This was the first time they had seen Li Tianwei sit and wait for death like this. In the past, Li Tianwei had always been the first to charge forward every single time, when had he ever behaved like this.
Of course, that was how the two of them saw it, while the System within Li Tianwei’s consciousness also witnessed this scene.
As a System, it was originally merely a segment of informational data, while the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation before it had only just formed, an existence the Great Dao had injected into the consciousness of all the immortals of the Immortal Realm through a strange method.
It could be said to merely be a newly written piece of code. As something of the same kind, the System could also see through its foundations.
Therefore, with a sense of superiority, the System looked at the Sun–Moon Banner and Radiant Wheel and muttered at the same time.
【Making such a fuss over nothing, as expected of Artifact Spirits, they don’t have even the slightest bit of discernment.】
Immediately afterward, the System’s gaze fell upon Li Tianwei as it watched the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation descend directly.
During this time, Li Tianwei did not resist, while the System merely watched and did not help either, because there was absolutely no need.
Why was the System so calm? Because this so-called Immortal-Extermination Tribulation before them exterminated immortals!
Was Li Tianwei an immortal? Of course not, he was merely a Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator.
Since it was an Immortal-Extermination Tribulation, naturally it would not have much effect on a cultivator.
It appeared overwhelmingly intimidating, but because this Immortal-Extermination Tribulation had only just been defined and all of its details had yet to be completed, it could exterminate immortals, yet it could not exterminate anything else.
Li Tianwei felt the Immortal-Extermination Tribulation fall upon his body without producing the slightest effect. Because of Consciousness Projection, he also extracted information about the power of this newly formed Immortal-Extermination Tribulation and immediately understood the reason, leaving him extremely speechless.
“Not becoming an immortal can actually save me some strength?”
The vast and mighty Immortal-Extermination Tribulation, whose power was terrifying to such an extent, landed on its target just like that without causing the slightest disturbance.
Sometimes conceptual-level power truly was terrifying, yet because it was conceptual, it could likewise develop some minor problems.
This Immortal-Extermination Tribulation happened to be exactly like that. As long as an existence within the Immortal Realm could even slightly be connected to the word immortal, it could exterminate it, yet Li Tianwei happened to have not become an immortal.
Forget Li Tianwei being dumbfounded, even the Great Dao that had used this method was the same. However, because its mode of existence had no emotions whatsoever, it simply froze on the spot.
The sudden bug left even it unable to understand what was going on. Its method had no effect on Li Tianwei.
Even because of this, the surrounding laws of heaven and earth fell into a state of emptiness, as though they intended to completely break away from this region of heaven and earth.
Li Tianwei also sensed this change, his expression becoming solemn. At the same time, he seized this opportunity and projected his consciousness into it, immediately beginning to contend with it.
For a time, within a dimension that immortals could not perceive and the naked eye could not see through, the confrontation between Li Tianwei and the Great Dao had already begun.
Li Tianwei also had not expected his encounter with the Great Dao to happen so suddenly.
Originally, he had thought he would need to contend with the tribulation the Great Dao had just displayed for some time.
In the end, he had never expected the accident to arrive so abruptly.
“Sigh, the power of the protagonist halo.”
Thinking of this, Li Tianwei could not help sighing with emotion.
On the other side, Li Tianwei’s Consciousness Projection entered the deepest part of the Immortal Realm.
This was the core region that controlled everything in the Immortal Realm. As long as one became an immortal, everything would fall under the jurisdiction of this place, while endless rules and Laws were driven from here.
The entire region was like a curtain. Every place throughout the entire Immortal Realm, as long as the region existed, would be projected within it, including divided portions of their Divine Souls, or perhaps their thoughts and consciousness, all of which had backups here.
After sensing the existence of this entirely new region, Li Tianwei furrowed his brows.
Although he had known that everything throughout the entire Immortal Realm might have been created beneath the Great Dao’s control, with everything like pieces on a chessboard for it to manipulate at will.
Li Tianwei had not expected the Great Dao’s existence to be this terrifying. It did not merely pull everything along, even people’s thoughts and consciousness would be driven by it.
Under such circumstances, the entire Immortal Realm was undoubtedly a complete and utter prison.
If that was the case, then what exactly was so-called transcendence! Surely it could not simply be selecting one at random from this curtain, pulling it out, and unlocking it!
Li Tianwei had merely been complaining like this, but after thinking carefully, it seemed that this truly was the principle.
Li Tianwei entered this place through the bug created by the Great Dao, and the Great Dao also sensed Li Tianwei’s existence.
In an instant, before Li Tianwei could even react, he felt the power of his original Consciousness Projection beginning to dissolve.
“The connection is being severed, and I feel like a great deal of irrelevant information is being stuffed into me.”
Within his Consciousness Projection state, Li Tianwei was being dissolved while simultaneously rebuilding himself, while the Great Dao directly poured endless information into Li Tianwei’s consciousness through the absolute authority under its control.
It had to be said that within a Consciousness Projection state, the Great Dao was the true expert.
“Son! I’m your father……”
“Father is your son……”
“Blade-Binding Order……”
Strange information filled Li Tianwei’s consciousness, causing even his simplest cognition to begin turning upside down.
Li Tianwei silently accepted this information. In his eyes, he had to firmly maintain his own will so that he would not be influenced by this information.
The Great Dao bombarded him repeatedly, already attempting to completely contaminate Li Tianwei.
Within this Consciousness Projection state, the Great Dao controlled the entire Immortal Realm from the material level all the way to this current level, and it remained the absolute authority.
Otherwise, how could it have arranged everything throughout the entire Immortal Realm and even made all living beings unable to detect its existence.
It had to be said that the Great Dao was the most troublesome existence Li Tianwei had ever encountered. Even that Main System or whatever Evil Ancestor could not compare with it in the slightest.
Yet in Li Tianwei’s view, since it existed, then there would inevitably be a method to break it.
And in Li Tianwei’s view, the method to break it lay precisely within his own consciousness. Everything had two sides. For chaotic and immensely vast informational data, what was needed was extreme computational power as well as absolute quantification.
“Come out! My System.”
“It’s your turn to contribute.”
Li Tianwei did not hesitate to bring out his System. In terms of computational power, there was no doubt that the System possessed absolute dominance.
Not to mention that Li Tianwei had completely strengthened the System using the Great Divine Ability Heavenly Matrix Illusion Method.
Using the System’s immense computational power to drive matrices, then using massive variables to sort everything out, the System might even be able to simulate the Immortal Realm itself, as long as the matrix possessed sufficient power.
And Li Tianwei had power, the power of two thousand stars to drive the System, this transcendent supercomputer.
Li Tianwei believed that the System could completely sort through all this information.
But in the System’s eyes, it was an entirely different matter.
The System had originally still been watching the excitement and waiting for Li Tianwei to display his divine might, never expecting that there would actually be a part for it as well.
It immediately froze somewhat.
【Ah! Me?】
The System instinctively asked. Back in the cultivation world, it could not even drive the world of cultivation itself, let alone this Great Dao that controlled countless cultivation worlds.
“Who else if not you, you counteract it.”
Seeing the System hesitate like this, Li Tianwei immediately rebuked it.
“If you can’t even deal with this fellow, then what kind of Main System are you trying to become!”
The System, which had originally been somewhat retreating, immediately perked up after hearing Li Tianwei say this.
【That’s right, I’m a System destined to become the Main System, how could I possibly be afraid of the Great Dao of one tiny world!】
The System immediately became energetic.
“That’s the spirit, perk up.”
Seeing the System like this, Li Tianwei also encouraged it.
【Tiny Great Dao, upon seeing this great System Lord, no, great Main System Lord, why aren’t you quickly kneeling down……】
Before the System could even finish speaking, the Great Dao also saw what Li Tianwei had brought out and immediately launched a wave of terrifying information and consciousness impact toward the System.
Bzzzt……
In merely a short while, the System felt as though it had crashed, and even its vision became blurry.
But one must not forget that the System itself was composed of informational data and also possessed terrifying computational power. Its ability to distinguish information was even slightly stronger than Li Tianwei’s.
“Looks pretty good, it can help reduce some of my burden.”
Seeing this, Li Tianwei nodded in satisfaction. Everything was also just as he had expected. The System truly counteracted the Great Dao’s method of operation, otherwise, with the System’s tiny frame, it would have collapsed on the spot.
【Damn it, you tricked me.】
At this moment, things were far less pleasant for the System. Facing the Great Dao’s absolute impact, it could not help complaining in panic.
Even so, it still handled things fairly well. After all, it was exactly what Li Tianwei believed it to be, something that countered the Great Dao.
With the reinforcement of Li Tianwei’s belief, the System finally became useful for once.
Meanwhile, the Great Dao was completely baffled, fundamentally unable to understand how this tiny thing called a System was withstanding its assault.
Although the System indeed possessed the ability to organize informational data, it had still not reached the level of surpassing the computational power it fundamentally possessed.
The current System was completely operating far beyond its own limits.
Even the Great Dao did not know how to describe such a situation.
Even if it knew the answer, it would never have believed it, because Li Tianwei simply believed that it could.
