Chapter 1323: Chapter 611: Another Destiny Prompt, Child of Fortune (2)
The weak cultivators have always been the fodder for the strong cultivators; they train low-tier cultivators solely for the sake of their own cultivation.
The entire sect abides by the law of the jungle, where the strong dominate and the weak become prey.
It’s safe to say that the worlds under the rule of the Blood River Sect, as well as the cultivators residing in these worlds, are mostly not good people, with most being practitioners of the demonic path who will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
"Thankfully, I didn’t traverse to the worlds governed by the Blood River Sect earlier, or I’d have had no chance of standing out."
Jiang Fan, after understanding the nuances of the worlds under the Blood River Sect’s rule, felt quite emotional.
In comparison with the worlds under the rule of the Blood River Sect, the Void Realm is wonderfully rustic.
At least in the Void Realm, low-tier cultivators have a chance to survive if they’re cautious, and there are constraints of rules.
But in the worlds under the Blood River Sect? There’s absolutely no such constraints.
A master killing a disciple, a disciple betraying a master, everything is exceedingly chaotic.
Only the strong can survive in the Blood River Sect.
Any cultivator who can climb to the upper echelons within the Blood River Sect is invariably ruthless and possesses formidable combat prowess.
And it is precisely because of such rules that generations of cultivators in the Blood River Sect have become astonishingly formidable.
This has also forged their cruel style of conduct.
They regard all beings and creatures in the world as mere fodder.
"However, the Blood River Sect is now facing a major problem."
"Originally, their rule was as stable as a rock, and for hundreds of millions of years, no one could threaten them."
"But things changed several decades ago."
"That was when demons began invading the worlds governed by the Blood River Sect."
"Numerous demon caves have appeared in the Great Thousand Worlds dominated by the Blood River Sect."
Jiang Fan’s eyes gleamed with a cold light.
From the memories of these cultivators, he obtained a startling revelation: demons had also appeared in the Great Thousand Worlds governed by the Ancient Sect.
It’s as if demon caves are cropping up everywhere across various Great Thousand Worlds.
Then, demons from the myriad mortal worlds would continually come into these worlds through the demon caves.
Fortunately, the top ten Ancient Sects have bred countless high-tier cultivators over hundreds of millions of years of development.
This initially placed them at an advantage, destroying many demon caves.
But how could the Demon Race be so easily defeated?
They dispatched numerous Mahayana-level demons, securing their foothold like nails, deeply rooted in various Great Thousand Worlds, sparking an unprecedented war.
After decades of battle, both sides remain in a deadlock.
The top ten Ancient Sects cannot expel the demons, but the demons also cannot make further advances.
Both parties are temporarily in a state of equilibrium.
"No wonder fewer otherworldly cultivators have entered the Void Realm recently."
"Have they also been attacked by demons?"
Jiang Fan realized suddenly.
He had noticed earlier that the number of otherworldly cultivators entering the Void Realm was significantly lower compared to before.
Initially, he thought this might be a plan of those sects, but now it seems that this is not any plan at all.
It was purely because these sects encountered major calamities and couldn’t allocate more personnel.
They are not unwilling to increase the intensity of invasions; rather, they are helpless.
"But why is this happening?"
"Previously, the demons did not invade these worlds, yet after the spiritual energy revival in the Void Realm, the demons started invading?"
"Could this matter have a significant relation to the Void Realm?"
Jiang Fan clenched his fists.
Instinctively, he decided that this matter has a significant connection with the Void Realm; otherwise, it wouldn’t be such a coincidence.
Just after the spiritual energy revival in the Void Realm, demons throughout the mortal realms began to riot.
There certainly exists a great hidden truth among this.
But the secrets contained in the Void Realm are far too many, and even he doesn’t understand why this is.
"Well, investigating these matters now doesn’t hold any significance."
"The most critical issue still is how to handle the invasion of demons."
"After all, within the myriad Great Thousand Worlds, who knows how many demon armies exist."
"If they truly come in full force, it would likely become a catastrophe sweeping across all mortal realms."
"At that time, hiding anywhere would be to no avail."
"Was the pressure faced by the Void Realm back then really so immense?"
"If that were true, it’s no wonder numerous ancient sects had nowhere to escape."
Jiang Fan took a deep breath.
He didn’t expect the situation in each Great Thousand World within the mortal realm to deteriorate so quickly.
Originally, he thought perhaps the Great Thousand Worlds ruled by Ancient Sects could become havens for living beings.
A place where they might be exempt from threats posed by the demons.
But in hindsight, this truly was overthinking.
Limitless worlds within the mortal realm, yet nowhere is truly safe.
Once the demon army expands here, everything will be decimated by them.
So, avoidance doesn’t solve any problem.
If these demons aren’t eradicated, the calamity will never disappear and will only grow more terrifying.
Boom~~
At this moment, a message swiftly penetrated deep into Jiang Fan’s sea of consciousness.
"You have arrived at the thirty-sixth world of the Blood River Sect. This world is undergoing demon invasion, and already a tenth of the area has fallen, with traces of demons everywhere.
To completely eradicate the threat in this world, demons are continuously hunting the Child of Fortune born in this world. If they succeed, then this world will never again give rise to forces opposing them."
"Fate will provide you with guidance."
"Destiny Prompt One: You need to head to Ji Family Town, located 1,007 kilometers northwest. A demon cave will soon appear there, and its emergence will utterly destroy this small town; the Child of Fortune, Ji Xingyao, residing in this town, will consequently perish, which will severely impact the world, accelerating the demon invasion of it."
"Destiny Prompt Two: As this demon cave’s life force is extremely resilient, normal means won’t completely kill it. If even a bit of its flesh escapes, it will quickly regenerate, leaving a significant hidden hazard for the future. It’s best to employ the power of the Seven-Colored Lotus Lamp to obliterate the demon cave from the source. Once you slay the opponent, you’ll obtain tremendous benefits and receive recognition from the world’s Heavenly Dao, garnering destiny."
"Destiny Prompt Three: You have only half an hour remaining; if not resolved within this time, then the demon cave will firmly root itself on this land, and next, you’ll be faced with an endless army of demons, further corroding this world."
Sensing the message, Jiang Fan’s pupils shrank.
He hadn’t expected that upon just arriving in this world, he’d so quickly perceive the message brought about by fate’s prompt, which signifies that arriving in this world indeed is a massive opportunity for him.
If he had arrived a bit later, perhaps this opportunity wouldn’t pertain to him anymore.
It just verifies the old adage: arriving early is not as good as arriving just in time.
"Child of Fortune, huh?"
"But this occurrence is quite common; every world has such individuals."
"Being favored by the Heavenly Dao means being a Child of Fortune."
Jiang Fan squinted his eyes.
He felt his understanding of the Child of Fortune deepened.
The so-called person of great destiny essentially is a cultivator receiving the favor of the Heavenly Dao; since one is favored by the Heavenly Dao, they naturally have the chance to obtain colossal opportunities.
Even at critical moments, they can receive divine revelations, which is foresight from the Heavenly Dao.
As a world’s Heavenly Dao, everything happening within the world can be easily detected by them.
No matter what opportunity, the Heavenly Dao comprehends them thoroughly.
It’s safe to say that the vast majority of Children of Fortune are merely Children of Time.
Because once they leave the original world and lose the favor of it, naturally, they revert to their original form.
Essentially, they become similar to ordinary cultivators, unable to receive various opportunities as before.
Nonetheless, no matter how you slice it, the existence of a Child of Fortune has immense benefits for the world’s Heavenly Dao, facilitating the operation of the world’s order, and maintaining the order of the Heavenly Dao.
