Realizing This Is A Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years Chapter 420 - Battle of the Great Dao, Life or Death

Chapter 420 Battle of the Great Dao, Life or Death

The three Heaven Gate experts from the other world sat on the ground with pale faces and dull eyes.

This period of time in the Primordial Cage could be said to be the most terrifying period of their long lives. The omnipresent chaos storm, chaotic perception, shattered and distorted laws, blurry concepts of time, and many environments that they could not understand were destroying their bodies and minds at all times.

Even though they had already pa.s.sed through the 21 realms of the Immortal and Mortal realms and stepped through two Heaven Gates, they could not withstand such endless torture. They could not see any hope at all.

Now that they were suddenly released, although they saw Cui Heng sitting in front of them, they still felt an unprecedented joy.

As long as they did not stay in that terrifying place, they could see anyone and do anything!

Therefore, after hearing Cui Heng’s question, they spoke almost without thinking, and they spoke in unison.

“It’s the will of the heavens for Star Fields to attack each other.”

However, as soon as they spoke, they panicked. They were actually talking to this powerful existence so casually. What if they were locked up in that terrifying place again?

Hence, the three of them hurriedly knelt on the ground.

“Little G.o.d Wei Yang greets Divine Lord.” “Little G.o.d Song Chengqi greets Divine Lord.” “Little G.o.d Chu Yao greets Divine Lord.”

They called themselves Little G.o.ds and called Cui Heng Divine Lord. This was the respectful t.i.tle the Outer World gave to experts who had crossed the First Heavenly Ladder.

Among them, the Outer World expert who called himself Chu Yao was clearly the one with the highest status. The other two would subconsciously look at him when they panicked.

Chu Yao was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties. He was dressed luxuriously and he prostrated on the ground. He said respectfully to Cui Heng, “We haven’t regained our senses just now and our words were a little disrespectful. May Divine Lord please forgive us.”

“It’s fine.” Cui Heng shook his head gently and said in a low voice, “Just answer my question.”

“Thank you, Divine Lord, for your mercy!” Chu Yao heaved a sigh of relief. He relaxed a little and organized his words slightly. “Reporting to Divine Lord, the Star Fields are instinctively each other. This is a battle of the Great Dao.”

Battle of the Great Dao?

Cui Heng was slightly stunned when he heard this. He did not expect it to involve such a power level.

A battle of the Great Dao meant that there was naturally an irreconcilable conflict between the different Star Fields. It would definitely be a life or death relationship.

But why was this happening?

“Is it because of the Heaven Gate?” Cui Heng had a guess.

After all, the corrosion of this Star Field by the Outer World was mainly reflected in the corrosion of the Heaven Gate.

The Heaven Gates are extremely close to the Door of Heaven. Ever since the Door of Heaven closed because of the invasion, no one could transcend the Heaven Gates and step into the Heaven Gate realm[1].

Therefore, the core of the conflict between the two parties might be because of the Heaven Gate.

Or could it be the power characteristics of the Heaven Gate?

While Cui Heng was guessing in his heart, Chu Yao continued to explain, “It’s said that there are six Heaven Gates among the myriad starry skies, and each Heaven Gate contains different power characteristics.”

“The 12 Heaven Gate realms are the process of transcending the Heaven Gates and constantly obtaining the different characteristics of power. But among these 12 Heaven Gate realms, there are three major Heavenly Ladder realms.”

“From the Third Heaven Gate to the Fourth Heaven Gate, from the Sixth Heaven Gate to the Seventh Heaven Gate, and from the Ninth Heaven Gate to the Tenth Heaven Gate, the step between each stage involves transcending a Heavenly Ladder. However, the problem is that although there are many types of power characteristics in each of the six Heaven Gates, there’s only one Heavenly Ladder power characteristic.”

“And each Heavenly Ladder characteristic can only be obtained once. In other words, if one wants to reach the Third Heavenly Ladder realm, they have to have three different Heavenly Ladder characteristics.”

“This created a situation. If one transcends the First Heavenly Ladder in their own Star Field, they have to transcend the Second Heavenly Ladder in another Star Field.”

“However, even if one wants to transcend the Heaven Gate of another Star Field, they can’t directly attack the highest level. They still have to start from the first level. This requires them to obtain the basic characteristics of the Outer World Heaven Gate, which is the characteristics of the First to Sixth levels of the Outer World Heaven Gate.”

“However, the number of power characteristics in each Heaven Gate is fixed. Once too many experts from other Star Fields obtain them, the number of Heaven Gate power characteristics available for that Star Field will decrease drastically.”

“The compet.i.tion for the Heaven Gate characteristics is one of the major contradictions. There are also contradictions in the characteristics of the Heavenly Ladder. This is also the true core battle of the Great Dao. It’s an irreconcilable contradiction.”

“Although the Heaven Gates’ power characteristics are limited, because the quant.i.ty is high to begin with, it’s usually enough even if there’s a sharp decrease. However, the Heavenly Ladder’s power characteristics are different.”

“Within 10,000 years, a single Heaven Gate only has enough power characteristics to allow 12 people to transcend the Heavenly Ladder at most. If too many people from the Outer World crossed it, the people from the local Star Field would lose the chance to transcend the Heavenly Ladder in that Heaven Gate.”

“The final victor of the Great Dao battle will often let the people of their Star Field go to the occupied Star Field to break through to the First Heavenly Ladder realm. When they reach the time to transcend the Second Heavenly Ladder, they only need to use the Heaven Gate in their own Star Field.”

“This way, they can rely heavily on the occupied Star Fields for the power characteristics of the first three Heaven Gates. At the same time, they can maximize the opportunities to obtain Heavenly Ladder power characteristics, thereby making it difficult for the people of the occupied Star Field to even break through the first three Heaven Gate realms.”

At this point, he paused slightly and hesitated for a moment. He took a deep breath and lowered his head. “Our Star Field came to you to occupy and invade the Heaven Gate of this place.”

“The reason why we’re working for Divine Lord Yu Tian is because he promised us that once we occupy this Star Field, we will have priority in using the Heaven Gate here when we break through to the First Heavenly Ladder realm…”

Although Chu Yao did not know why this expert who had clearly crossed the Heavenly Ladder would ask such a question, he still tried his best to explain the reason.

He even explained the goal of the invasion.

He did not dare to hide anything from such a supreme being.

After he finished explaining, everyone present fell silent.

Although Zhao Tianyi, Xuan Bei, Taichong, and the others did not know much about the concept of the Heaven Gate, they could still understand this unrelenting compet.i.tion through Chu Yao’s description.

Because of the existence of the Heaven Gate, a deadly feud had really been formed between the different Star Fields!

Cui Heng was still sitting there. His gaze was calm as he stared at Chu Yao, thinking about something

After a while, he suddenly asked, “You just said that there are six Heaven Gates in the myriad starry skies. Each Heaven Gate contains many different Heaven Gate power characteristics and one Heavenly Ladder characteristic.”

“Then is there a method to unify all six Heaven Gates and obtain all the Heaven Gate characteristics and Heavenly Ladder characteristics and accommodate them all into one’s body?

“Do you know this method, or as far as you know, are there any records about this?”

[1] Sorry for the confusion. The Heaven Gate that swallowed Taihong Star will be called the Door of Heaven from now on, and the Heaven Gates that the cultivators need to pa.s.s through to reach a new realm will remain as Heaven Gate.
