Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World
Chapter 1325 - 612: Immortal Destiny Life Chart—Heavenly Calamity Lone Star, Dogged by Misfortune (Part 2)
The difference from a Ji Family cultivator is only that he dies a little later.
The problem is that now he is just a mortal, without even a bit of cultivation.
Even if he wants to escape from here, it’s basically impossible.
Undoubtedly, he has fallen into utter despair, finding no way to survive.
However, Ji Xingyao was unaware that a figure silently appeared in the sky above.
The newcomer was naturally Jiang Fan.
As a Sixth-Layer Integration cultivator, instant teleportation of the physical body was already a basic ability.
A single thought could take him thousands of miles away.
Therefore, reaching the Ji Family Town was a matter of minutes for him.
Yet, even so, he realized he had arrived too late, as this demon cave had already been teleported to this place.
And in the instant it appeared, it caused massive casualties among humans.
This shows just how terrifying the threat of demons truly is.
"Is this kid the Child of Fortune of this world?"
"Actually possessing the Immortal Destiny Life Chart of the Heavenly Calamity Lone Star."
"Could this disaster have been brought about by this fellow?"
Jiang Fan’s heart was stirred, and he immediately noticed this sixteen-year-old boy.
After all, the other party indeed had immense destiny, but it also came with dreadful misfortune.
When fortune and misfortune stack together, that results in the Immortal Destiny Life Chart of the Heavenly Calamity Lone Star.
No doubt, even among many Immortal Destiny Life Charts, this one is among the top.
But this is also a most solitary and ominous life chart, and once acquired, it almost ensures a lifetime of loneliness unless one’s cultivation becomes strong enough to control this life chart.
"The reason the Immortal Destiny Life Chart of the Heavenly Calamity Lone Star leads to a lonely death, plagued by bad luck, is because it possesses the ability to devour the fortune and misfortune of other beings."
"And this ability is passive; wherever he goes or stays long, the destiny of the nearby beings will be devoured by him."
"Once the fortune of surrounding beings is completely devoured, only misfortune and bad luck remain, and these beings then suffer various disasters and die."
"Ji Family Town is just like that. This boy has lived here for over ten years and has devoured who knows how much fortune. In fact, the people of this small town have long been under a dark cloud, with the star of death looming."
"Even if the demon cave hadn’t arrived, other disasters would have occurred."
Jiang Fan’s eyes flickered.
He immediately discerned the formidable nature of this Immortal Destiny Life Chart of the Heavenly Calamity Lone Star.
In some ways, it was slightly similar to his own life chart ability, but the Heavenly Calamity Lone Star’s ability is passive and uncontrollable, and the disaster would also befall the possessor.
However, because the possessor also has immense destiny, even in dire crises, the boy could find a way to survive.
Often, while those around him perish, he remains unscathed, with an astonishingly resilient fate.
Of course, to the Heavenly Dao of a world, a cultivator with such a life chart is the best guardian. After all, only powerful strength can protect the world and help it overcome disasters.
This means that those around him would be very unfortunate, often dying without knowing it.
More terrifying is that, due to the immense destiny he possesses, it’s easy for him to gain favor from other cultivators, even attracting the attention of high-tier cultivators, without arousing enemies’ killing intent.
On the contrary, others would lament his fortune and help him.
"Although this life chart’s power is terrifying, it has no effect on me."
"His bad luck can’t impact me."
Jiang Fan stroked his chin.
Honestly, if it could affect him, he would run as far away as possible.
He would definitely never come into contact with this Heavenly Calamity Lone Star, or it would be seeking his own death.
After all, his ability also involves devouring destiny, but it’s actively triggered, not triggered by accident.
He can even foster the growth of his own and others’ destiny for mutual benefit.
Unlike the Heavenly Calamity Lone Star, which purely benefits oneself at others’ expense.
Yet, it must be said, if such a life chart were in an evil sect, or even a Demon Sect, it would thrive.
Such a character is very suitable to become a spy.
If successful, the possessor could devour all kinds of destiny from demons, causing them to die miserably and perish in various calamities.
Perhaps this is why the world Heavenly Dao made him the Child of Destiny.
Only such an ability can end a world-engulfing disaster.
"Right, the Mixed Element Alliance can also start developing in this world."
"After all, the Blood River Sect has ruled over forty-nine Great Thousand Worlds, with countless Life Plate Cultivators within."
"If they could all join the Mixed Element Alliance, it would surely increase its power significantly."
"Besides the Blood River Sect, other Ancient Sect worlds can also develop the Mixed Element Alliance."
"Furthermore, the power of the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall of Immortal Artifacts can extend into different Great Thousand Worlds."
"Completely capable of conducting cross-world trade."
Jiang Fan’s eyes flickered as he began pondering the future development of the Mixed Element Alliance.
After all, the Mixed Element Alliance is crucial for his cultivation, and it’s tied to his own Dao.
Only by gathering more Life Plate Cultivators can his Dao advance further.
Currently, though, it can’t play any role yet.
Basically, only when he advances to Mahayana, condensing his own Dao Seed, can he truly utilize the power of the Mixed Element Alliance.
For now, it’s still in its infancy.
"Well, that’s a matter for later."
"For now, the most important task is to eliminate these demons and this demon cave."
Jiang Fan’s eyes revealed a cold glint as he looked down.
He gazed at the massive demon cave in the very center of Ji Family Town, which was constantly absorbing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, with black tendrils, like roots, deeply embedding into the ground.
Once they successfully root, it could completely devour the Spirit Vein in an area of millions of miles.
At that point, killing it wouldn’t be an easy task.
Even if it could be killed, it would damage the land in this region, causing significant loss.
In fact, this is precisely where demon caves are incredibly malicious.
Even when dead, they can cause massive ecological damage to the local environment.
Over time, many world lands would turn to desert.
Then it would be difficult to find places where humans could survive.
So it’s vital to destroy this demon cave before it fully roots.
In this way, potential risks can be prevented.
"Haha, finally entered Blood River Sect’s World Number Thirty-six."
"Isn’t it true? We paid a great price to break through the barrier of this Great Thousand World."
"But anyway, we’ve succeeded, and we must quickly root ourselves here. Once successful, we can teleport strong demons from other worlds here."
"But our crossing caused massive void fluctuations, likely already known to Blood River Sect’s cultivators."
"Heh, they might know, but what does it matter? This time, we dispatched dozens of demon caves at once, scattered across this world. No matter how powerful Blood River Sect is, they can’t cope with dozens of demon caves simultaneously."
"That’s true; most demon caves are cannon fodder, but as long as a few survive, it’s worth it. This demon cave will become our base, our teleportation array, allowing demons from beyond this realm to continuously be sent, eventually swallowing this world."
"Blood River Sect is indeed an ancient human sect force, but compared to us demons, they’re far inferior and can’t resist us for long."
"It’s said this sect escaped from the Void Realm, remnants of the former Void Realm. Who would have thought so many human remnants survived after the Void Realm battle, amassing such power, now becoming our major threat, truly hateful."
"No matter, they’ll only die later. Now that we’ve found their territory, death looms for them, and this time they have no place to escape."
Numerous demons discussed amongst themselves.
They were protectors of the demon cave, tasked with guarding and nurturing its growth.
