Practice begins with immortality

Just as the three creatures appeared, the spherical creature on the left began to roar frantically. The sound it made was a mixture of the bleating of sheep and the snoring of nature, making the listener's hair stand on end. These roars seemed to vent some kind of intense discontent, and the entire space trembled with them.

The large-headed dwarf standing in the middle quietly observed the scene. Seeing the spherical creatures so angry, one of their faces slowly opened its mouth and said, "Brother Roushan, please don't be angry anymore. Although we are all reluctant to leave the small coffin world, there is no choice. After all, we three have the least experience here, so we can only obey the arrangements. However, you must not be so angry, or you will hurt yourself. And you must know that the existence of this world all originated from the legendary immortal. The flesh of the creatures here is extremely delicious. If you could taste it, the taste would be simply wonderful!"

After hearing the big-headed dwarf's words, the "Meat Mountain" monster, which had been roaring non-stop, finally stopped. At the same time, a disgusting liquid slowly flowed out from the gaps between its huge gums. This liquid exuded a pungent stench, as if it were filth gushing from the depths of Hell. The mere sight of it made one's stomach churn and feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Alright, let's quickly find out the reason for the formation of this parallel world. After all, it's not yet time for 'transformation', so there shouldn't be any major changes that aren't part of our deduction."

The dark blue skeleton suddenly spoke. Their mission this time was to uncover the cause of this parallel world, a world not created by forces behind them.

Every universe, or world, has its own timeline. This timeline constantly forks with different probabilities and choices, and each forked timeline is a new parallel world. There are countless timelines, and there are also infinite parallel worlds.

Hearing this, the big-headed dwarf sneered and said, "Brother Black Bone, you have little experience, so you think this is not a big deal."

"I've seen this happen once before, tens of thousands of years ago. Back then, a powerful being who cultivated the Dao of Thunder and the Dao of Primordial Magnetics descended upon this world through an isotope."

"That is a proud Thunder Spirit from the Mountain and Sea Realm. In just a few moments of his life, he has already attained the power of a second calamity. Even if those natives who have received this 'gift' are a million times stronger, they cannot defeat him."

"However, that Thunder Spirit Tribe's genius was truly too much. After devouring half of the world's inhabitants, he still wanted to lay his hands on other captive worlds. As a result, he offended that master, and was killed by him in this world. However, his influence on the world also enlightened the master, allowing him to discover the 'opportunity for change.'"

The Opportunity for Change is a special thing referred to by these three beings and the forces behind them. The master they spoke of discovered that when society in this world reaches a period of prosperity and stability, and then destroys or subverts it, a special force will begin to emerge within the world. That master called it the "Opportunity for Change."

Change also represents progress. Atop the ruins destroyed by the genius of the Thunder Spirit Clan, the newly born human race made progress. They developed the concept of a nation and a complete cultivation system. Although it was a compromised system, it was better than nothing.

Obviously, this so-called "opportunity for change" was useful to that person, otherwise these three creatures would not have come here.

...............

After a while, "Found it."

Suddenly, the black skeleton said to the two creatures, "The source of the change is in xx, xx."

"As for the distance, it's about a trillion light-years away. However, the distance within the world is meaningless to us."

"But what surprised me was that this change was limited to this area and didn't affect the entire world. It's really strange."

"Oh, is that so?" the big-headed dwarf said with great interest, "Could it be that the descender is not strong enough?"

"Probably not." Hei Gu shook his head and continued, "Those who possess the secret technique of occupying a homologue are generally geniuses. They might be pretending to be weak, so they can play the pig and eat the tiger."

"Brother Black Bone, you can't say that."

The big-headed dwarf's face flushed crimson, and he looked quite excited. He waved his short, thick arms and shouted, "So-called geniuses, who isn't arrogant and conceited? Asking them to endure humiliation, feign weakness, or even pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger is simply a fantasy! Besides, if they keep pretending to be a pig, they might actually turn into a stupid, fat pig in the end."

"In my opinion, that guy is probably just a lucky bastard. He stumbled upon that secret technique somewhere and happened to come across it. Hehe, isn't this a perfect opportunity for us? As long as we can get our hands on that secret technique, wouldn't it be easy for us brothers to break through to a higher level of cultivation? Then we'll have a greater say in the small coffin world!"

However, despite such tempting words, Hei Gu's brows remained furrowed, a hint of hesitation on his face. Seeing this, the three faces of the big-headed dwarf immediately began to exhort him in unison, "Hey, Brother Hei Gu, you need to think carefully! If you miss this opportunity, you'll never get it again! If you foolishly report this matter, how can we get a share of this invaluable secret technique?"

"Yes! As the saying goes, wealth and honor are sought in danger. Where in this world can you get an opportunity without taking risks? What's more, the genius of the Thunder Spirit Clan was only at the fourth calamity level after devouring half of the world's creatures. No matter how strong that person is, he can only be at the third calamity level at most. The three of us are all masters in the third calamity level. If we join forces, it can be said that we are sure to win!"

"So, let's go together! Otherwise, we're worried that Brother Hei Gu might get into trouble if he's alone!"

...........

Under the persuasion and "well-intentioned" reminder of the three faces of the big-headed dwarf, Hei Gu also agreed to the action.

The next moment, a dark green vortex appeared in front of the three of them. "I have opened the portal. Walk through it and you will reach your destination."

I saw Hei Gu saying to the other two.

"Since I'm the one who opened the portal, you two go first."

"Hehe, then I'll go first."

Before he finished speaking, the big-headed dwarf hurriedly entered the portal, and the creature called "Meat Mountain" followed closely behind the big-headed dwarf and went in.

After both of them entered the portal and were teleported away, Hei Gu actually chuckled.

Then, he thought to himself, "As expected, Roushan is greedy and brainless, Sanmian is smart but too greedy, and although he is shrewd in small matters, he tends to gamble everything on big things."

"Oh, God is so unfair. A normal person with such a big character flaw would never go far on the path of cultivation. But these two, because they were born into the demon clan, can easily cultivate to this level."

"But if not, how could I..."

Afterwards, Hei Gu also stepped into the portal...
