My Mythical Path to Immortality in Another World

Chapter 233 The Evolution of the Heavenly Dao

And so it was, this branch of the Protoss was like a traveler struggling through the darkness, relying on an indomitable and never-give-up will, as well as a fearless spirit of relentless exploration of the unknown and proactive progress, cautiously and treading on thin ice as they moved forward.

Along the way, they encountered countless hardships and obstacles, but they never gave up their progress.

Through years of unremitting efforts and accumulation, they finally succeeded in building a complete social system unique to themselves.

This system encompasses various aspects, including politics, economics, and culture, with each element closely interconnected and mutually reinforcing. Furthermore, they meticulously crafted a series of social institutions perfectly suited to their environment.

These systems act as solid foundations, supporting the stable operation and vigorous development of the entire society.

As time slowly passed, this branch, which once belonged to the gods, gradually broke free from the various restrictions and constraints imposed by the gods' inherent model.

They boldly innovated and dared to break through the barriers of traditional thinking, successfully forging a completely new path distinct from that of the Protoss. This path is full of infinite possibilities and hope, leading them towards a broader future.

Ultimately, filled with immense pride and honor, they gave themselves a brand new name—"Human Race".

From this moment on, humanity roamed this vast and boundless land with unprecedented boldness. Their footprints covered mountains, lakes, plains, and deserts, leaving behind unique marks of humanity wherever they went.

As the saying goes, Heaven rewards diligence. Perhaps it was precisely because the tenacious and indomitable spirit displayed by humanity deeply moved the heavens that Heaven began to bestow special favor upon humanity. At the same time, humanity's respect and awe for all things in the universe also began to reciprocate and benefit Heaven.

As humanity grew stronger and learned to treat all living beings with courtesy, something miraculous happened: the Heavenly Dao seemed to be awakened, beginning to gather the spiritual power scattered throughout the world, which in turn gave birth to a series of mysterious and unpredictable rules.

Just as the world began to generate new rules one after another, a wise man named Zhao Xuan was the first to notice something amiss with his extraordinary keen insight.

He was astonished to discover that countless worlds, as numerous as the sands of the Ganges, all seemed to be conveying a strong sense of "hunger"...

When Zhao Xuan clearly felt that intense hunger, he felt no panic or unease; instead, an irrepressible excitement welled up inside him.

Because he knew that the emergence of this hunger signified that these worlds were about to enter a phase of rapid growth.

Without hesitation, Zhao Xuan acted swiftly, opening a passage between himself and these worlds, and then channeling his immense magical power into them.

It's important to understand that the world and the grotto-heaven are worlds apart. The greatest advantage of the world over the grotto-heaven lies in its complete and perfect laws. However, the laws within the grotto-heaven often have many flaws and shortcomings.

The imperfection of the laws directly leads to the incompleteness of the Heavenly Dao. As a result, it is simply a pipe dream to derive powerful Heavenly Dao power from it, let alone give birth to such a magical and vast power as the power of the world.

While cultivators can indeed utilize certain methods to harness the power contained within a grotto-heaven and harness it for their own use, this process is fraught with risks and uncertainties. The slightest mishap could cause irreparable damage to the grotto-heaven.

However, once a complete system of rules is established, the Heavenly Dao can act like a highly skilled conductor, exquisitely controlling the various forces within the world.

Even if cultivators mobilize the power of the world on a large scale, it will not cause substantial damage to the foundation of the world.

Moreover, this comprehensive system of rules can also play a guiding role, prompting the cultivation system in the world to continuously develop, evolve, and become more mature and perfect.

As for why Zhao Xuan didn't choose to directly absorb the chaotic spiritual energy to replenish the world's needs, but instead injected his own precious magical power into it, the reason is actually very simple and clear...

The sheer number of worlds he created was beyond imagination; those countless worlds were scattered like brilliant stars in the night sky.

Each of these worlds requires a constant supply of energy to maintain normal operation. However, due to the sheer number of worlds, even with his once unparalleled magical power, he now feels powerless and unable to meet the massive energy demands of these numerous worlds!

It should be noted that even the extremely precious and rare Xuanhuang material energy originally contained in his invincible Xuanhuang Dharma Body had all been fused with the mysterious and unpredictable spacetime matter when he advanced, and was unreservedly put into the great project of creating a new world.

Now, facing such a daunting predicament, he knows that if he doesn't come up with a solution soon, the many worlds he has painstakingly created may face the danger of collapse and destruction.

So he racked his brains, thinking day and night about how to resolve the crisis.

Finally, after countless brainstorming sessions and weighing the pros and cons repeatedly, he made up his mind to take a bold and risky action—to draw energy from the energy stars to fill the spiritual energy gaps that various worlds desperately needed.

However, it is clear to anyone with discernment that this approach is merely a stopgap measure, or even an opportunistic tactic.

After all, while energy stars contain enormous amounts of energy, they are also highly coveted by other beings, and obtaining enough energy from them is by no means easy.

If not careful, not only will the current predicament not be resolved, but it may also backfire, bringing more unexpected trouble and powerful enemies upon oneself.

Moreover, if Zhao Xuan relies solely on external energy to maintain the world's operation without personally participating in the world's evolutionary process with his own magical power, then when the world gradually develops its own Heavenly Dao, these Heavenly Dao will exist completely independently.

In other words, they may not necessarily obey Zhao Xuan's commands and control.

However, things were not actually at a dead end; there was still a glimmer of hope.

If we can seize this fleeting opportunity, we might be able to turn the tide and change the current unfavorable situation.

The key is to act before the Heavenly Dao completely breaks free from its constraints and becomes entirely independent.

If one can quickly and accurately inject a portion of one's own magical power into the Heavenly Dao, and with superb skills and powerful strength, successfully seize even a tiny, insignificant bit of authority, that would be the key to breaking the deadlock.

Because once he possesses even a tiny fraction of the power of the Heavenly Dao, he can, as if holding a magical key, mobilize the vast, boundless, and unpredictable power of the Heavenly Dao, thereby achieving comprehensive and effective control over the entire world.

However, it is important to emphasize that this possibility only exists under specific conditions.

If it were in a state of utter chaos and undeveloped potential, then everything mentioned above would be nothing but a pipe dream, becoming utterly impossible to achieve.

After all, in the chaos, all things were in a primitive and ignorant state. The effort and cost required to create a new world were immeasurable.

It requires not only a huge investment of time, energy, and immense strength, but also facing numerous difficulties, obstacles, and unknown risks and challenges.

And most importantly, even if you finally succeed in creating a world after going through all sorts of hardships, wouldn't all your hard work and efforts be in vain if you can't fully control it?

This perfectly illustrates the old saying, "Losing both wife and army," resulting in a net loss and all efforts being in vain. Therefore, attempting to achieve complete control over the world amidst chaos is practically a pipe dream.

Fortunately, Zhao Xuan's situation is different. Since these worlds exist within his body, Zhao Xuan essentially has an innate power to control them.

Therefore, as long as he can participate even slightly in the evolution of the Heavenly Dao, it will be enough for him to firmly control the direction of the Heavenly Dao.

Zhao Xuan focused intently on continuously channeling his magical power into those countless worlds, like a diligent gardener carefully tending to newly sprouted buds.

As time went by, these sand worlds, like seedlings being nourished, began to grow at an astonishing rate.

However, despite Zhao Xuan's best efforts, the magical power within him was ultimately limited.

Even if he gave it his all and exhausted all his magical power, he could only successfully enable one-tenth of the world-level Heavenly Dao of the Ganges Sand World to evolve.

Looking at the part that had not yet fully evolved, Zhao Xuan felt a little regret, but more so, anticipation for the future. After all, the remaining worlds of the Ganges only needed him to accumulate enough magical power again before they could continue their transformation.

Don't underestimate this mere one-tenth of the world of Hengsha!

It should be noted that the number of countless worlds contained within Zhao Xuan's body is immense. Every single cell of his flesh and blood is fused with mysterious and unpredictable primordial matter, thus creating a vast and boundless world of countless sands within each cell.

Moreover, the total number of flesh and blood cells in Zhao Xuan's body is as high as 100,000.

The "univariate number" mentioned here is actually the univariate number 129,600.

However, since this number is a predetermined rule set by Heaven, practitioners usually refer to it simply as the "monistic number".

Correspondingly, they called 12,960 a "univariate number" and 1,296 a "univariate decimal".

In other words, the sheer number of flesh and blood cells in Zhao Xuan's body reached an astonishing 12.96 billion!

Correspondingly, the number of countless worlds contained within his body is also an astonishing 12.96 billion!

Such a complex and ingenious design highlights the wonder and uniqueness of Zhao Xuan's physical structure.

What does this mean? Just one-tenth of it is enough to create 1.296 billion worlds!

Although these countless worlds may not be top-tier in terms of level, even if each world can only mobilize a negligible drop of extra Heavenly Dao power, the energy generated when so many worlds come together is absolutely not to be underestimated!

It could even be said that their power far surpassed Zhao Xuan's original magical power.

What's even more noteworthy is that, unlike ordinary people, Zhao Xuan himself does not have any limiting factors such as meridians.

This means that the powerful forces within him can be released without any hindrance and with full force.

As a result, Zhao Xuan's actual combat ability was not weakened in the slightest by the existence of the inner world; on the contrary, it was greatly enhanced, allowing him to easily surpass his previous level.

Moreover, if Zhao Xuan can successfully evolve all the worlds within his body into complete Heavenly Dao Laws, then according to his own estimation, his overall strength will increase to an extremely terrifying level—at least fifty to one hundred times!

Do not forget that in Zhao Xuan's vast inner world, in addition to the astonishing number of countless worlds, there are a total of 1,296 minor worlds, nine middle worlds, and one major world!

These worlds are indeed much fewer in number compared to the countless worlds, but their size far exceeds that of the countless worlds.

As these worlds gradually evolved into the Heavenly Dao, the power they could bestow upon Zhao Xuan was simply beyond imagination, far surpassing the power of those countless worlds.

More importantly, if the Great Thousand Worlds successfully give rise to the Heavenly Dao, then all the worlds within Zhao Xuan's body will form a complete system around this Great Thousand Worlds.

In this way, these worlds would have the opportunity to evolve into world powers with the power of the Great Dao, rather than being limited to the power of the Heavenly Dao.

By then, even if Zhao Xuan has not yet broken through to the supreme realm of the Great Primordial Golden Immortal, his strength will be comparable to that of the Great Primordial Golden Immortal.

Zhao Xuan was very clear that the evolution of this vast world played a crucial role in improving his own strength.

However, this matter cannot be rushed, as the saying goes, haste makes waste, so he did not appear too eager.

The simplest and most effective way to establish a close system of connections between these worlds is to link the humanity in each world together.

Only when humanity is interconnected can these worlds truly integrate and unleash their greatest potential and power.
