Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 1235: Chapter 88: Forty-Nine Normal Starlit Skies

In the face of the Corrosive Fate Dao, the starry sky has always been trying to find a solution.

Dividing the vast starry sky into segments as it is now was one such measure.

The first aim was to isolate the influence of the Dust Beasts, and the second was to experiment with different cultivation methods in different sections of the starry sky.

The goal was to foster beings that reach the Thirteen Realms and beyond.

Only those who reach the Thirteen Realms have the power to stabilize the starry sky’s destiny, ensuring stability amid turmoil.

Corrosive Fate Dao’s onslaught on the Great Tao River showed that only five sections including New Earth and Old Earth, which possess the Thirteen Realms, remain exceptionally stable, proving this effort worthy.

Even if they lack the capability to tackle the Corrosive Fate Dao completely, those reaching Thirteen Realms can still secure the basic situation to some extent.

As for the ultimate outcome, failure is out of the question under any circumstances.

Because of Wang Sheng’s existence.

Even though Wang Sheng is an anomaly.

Within the original plans of the starry sky, Wang Sheng’s emergence aligns with its true intent.

A mighty one, capable of dealing with the Corrosive Fate Dao’s might.

Clearly, Wang Sheng fits perfectly.

“The originally limitless potential of the starry sky halted directly because of an accident. Fortunately, the starry sky has a self-preservation instinct which altered the rules to some degree, leaving behind a few stable sections.” Wang Sheng sighed slightly; objectively speaking, if it weren’t for the starry sky acting as such, his development couldn’t have been this smooth.

The crisis in the Chaotic Realm is a far cry from the Dust Beasts.

Considering the development of the Source Star, if there were Dust Beasts, the pressure would be extremely terrifying, and without cross-realm wars, his cultivation progress would be much slower; after all, he broke through bottlenecks several times leveraging the benefits from the Source Star.

“Though many doubts have been resolved for me, none of these are significant…”

Starry Sky Rules conducted retrospection, letting him learn many secrets.

But those are merely results – outcomes after the Corrosive Fate Dao’s emergence.

He knew clearly; all these are supplementary pieces of information that Starry Sky Rules genuinely wanted to reveal to him.

The retrospection by the Starry Sky Rules was interrupted by the Corrosive Fate Dao’s assaults.

Yet key information was still retained.

“The truth lies within the starry sky where the Great Wilderness Civilization is located, though the Great Wilderness Civilization is on the periphery; to uncover the truth, one must venture deep into that starry sky, where the truth shall be found.

Moreover, the emergence of the Corrosive Fate Dao is linked to the early Cultivation Civilization; once, creatures accessed the Great Tao, influencing the Fate Dao during that time.”

Due to the interference from the Corrosive Fate Dao, the scenes of retrospection from the starry sky turned defective.

However, the scenes he saw reflected many things.

“It seems the next step is indeed to venture into the depths of that starry sky, better to explore with an avatar first.”

The starry sky of the Great Wilderness Civilization was precisely what he intended to explore.

And the Starry Sky Rules furnished him with guidance.

“After handling the matters of the starry sky, dispatch to the Great Wilderness Starry Sky.”

It is essential to venture into the Great Wilderness Starry Sky, but the foundational groundwork cannot be neglected.

The starry sky is vast, yet its expansion has ceased due to the presence of the Corrosive Fate Dao.

Several parts of the starry sky have been entirely corroded by the Corrosive Fate Dao, where Dust Beasts are rampant.

Only due to the starry sky’s powerful suppression do creatures still exist within these sections.

Yet, as long as the Corrosive Fate Dao persists, the problem cannot be fully resolved.

Hence, New Earth, Old Earth, and other starry sections are of utmost importance.

They can be considered the very foundation of the present starry sky.

If these stable starry sections were to fall, further rescue would become futile.

At that time, the Corrosive Fate Dao would signify the entirety of the starry sky.

The current state of Wang Sheng’s realm remains unharmed.

Space, time, cause, and effect, all, in essence, abstract concepts.

Even if the Corrosive Fate Dao alters the entire starry sky, exceptions exist; at most, different expressions would be used.

Wang Sheng now aligns with the Great Tao, naturally unmarred.

But it’s not the same for other creatures in the starry sky.

They still cannot free themselves from the limitations of the starry sky.

“Thirteen Realms in the starry sky, still not enough… ”

Normally, the starry sky comprises far more than just five sections.

Amid five starry skies, pre-Heavenly Favored King saw the emergence of eight Supremes, and twenty more in the following millions of years, totaling to twenty-eight.

Among them, New Earth Source Star has the most, with Wang Sheng’s protection and a strong destiny, amassing eight Supremes.

Then there’s the Xuan Yuan Starry Sky, tallying to six.

Following Old Earth, Long Yue, Yuanhua, Ye Feng came three more, catching up with the Xuan Yuan Starry Sky, also totaling six Supremes.

Three for Divine Light, and five for Purple Mountain Starry Sky, rising thereafter.

The prosperity is shared among the five starry skies.

“Ordinarily, a starry sky with three Supremes stabilizing destiny suffices, this time, aiming to encompass other normal starry skies into the Supreme Road system; in due time, some Supremes can be allocated to stabilize destinies.”

The Thirteen Realms Supremes presently exist only within these five starry skies.

No other starry skies have birthed any yet.

Therefore, adjustments, much like before, are needed.

“Adding the normal starry skies to the existing five, there are a total of forty-nine; this falls short… ”

Even though twenty-eight Supremes, allocating one Supreme per starry sky, cannot suffice.

Wang Sheng pondered about the Underworld.

The Underworld has advanced substantially with his attainment of the Heavenly Immortal status.

Progress in the Reincarnation Dao surpasses even that of the Fate Dao.

All four Great Judges and Ten Great Yin Marshals are now advancing to the Thirteen Realms.

They can be deployed if necessary.

However—

“Nevermind, once the other forty-four starry skies are included in the Supreme Road, the workload of the Underworld would surpass even that of the starry sky.

Within the starry sky, myriad forces manage various places, yet in the Underworld, only one Underworld exists.

Once the Supreme Road enters other starry skies, the reincarnation system will promptly follow suit.
