Chapter 995: Speculations on the Future
Daheng, colluded with Him?
Chu Mu took a deep breath. All his previous doubts seemed to be clear at this moment.

As for why Heng Huang chose Tian Yan instead of Tian Xin...

This doesn't seem difficult to understand.

The mark of Tianxin has been on Daheng for hundreds of thousands of years. Both the royal family and the people of Daheng are like puppets of Tianxin.

When the snipe and the clam are fighting, anyone would probably want to break free from their restraints.

I just don't know whether this "rebellion" was planned by Emperor Heng alone, or by the royal family, or whether the entire upper echelons of Daheng planned it in order to break free from the constraints of Tianxin?
Chu Mu recalled the leaders of the nine major armies of Daheng that he had seen before, as well as other Nascent Soul cultivators who also belonged to Daheng...

"It should be just Emperor Heng, or the entire royal family?"

"The others were probably being used? Or rather, they were being used by Emperor Heng!"

"Did Tianxin's fixed logic become paradoxical because Henghuang was freed from his restraints? Did it create a logical error and was exploited by Henghuang?"

One guess after another emerged in his mind. Although this was most likely a conspiracy to destroy the world, at this moment, Chu Mu did not have too much psychological fluctuations.

Having witnessed the destruction and collapse of one world and having caught a glimpse of the unspeakable horror, the collapse and destruction of yet another world didn't seem to be a big deal.

After all, this is a destiny that has already been determined.

As for the destruction and collapse of this world, was it caused by a dimensionality reduction attack, or was it caused by the Heavenly Evolution Holy Beast breaking the seal, or was it caused by someone colluding with betrayal...

When the outcome is predetermined, why does the process matter?
Apparently not important.

Even if he could stop Daheng, he couldn't prevent the inevitable outcome.

Forcing it would only bring unnecessary danger to himself.

Besides, even if all these speculations are true, there will be no loss to him.

His purpose is only to satisfy Tianxin.

He doesn't even need to control the Heavenly Heart, he just wants to use the Heavenly Heart to gain some insights.

Who would not satisfy such a small request from a great and powerful being who has reached the state of spiritual enlightenment?

Who dares not to be satisfied!
Chu Mu silently sensed the power of this world rapidly flowing towards that derived world, and at the same time waited silently.

At this rate, it won’t be long before the world’s power is completely drained.

As far as Tianyan's erosion is concerned, it means that the world has given up all resistance and is advancing unimpeded. The alienation of the world is inevitable.

The main world has been completely alienated, and this derivative world cage naturally cannot be spared.

When the main world is completely alienated, this cage will inevitably collapse, and it will also be the day when the sacred beast of Tianyan in the cage breaks the seal.

"If one comprehends the rules to a certain degree, can one directly control... the world?"

Chu Mu sensed the power flowing away in this world, and with the blessing of spiritual light, inspirations emerged one after another.

The Nascent Soul stage can barely be considered as one’s contact with the rules of heaven and earth.

However, this kind of contact is passively blessed by the great power bestowed by heaven and earth.

If rejected by heaven and earth, this great power of heaven and earth will inevitably be suppressed or even deprived.

The state of spiritual transformation is to turn passivity into activity, to transform the gift into control, to comprehend the rules by oneself, and to control the power of rules.

Even if the heaven and earth reject or even suppress one, it cannot affect the control of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

The control of the God of Transformation comes from one's own understanding of the rules. It is truly a gathering of great power within oneself that is difficult to be influenced by anything external.

Now that he has reached the perfection of the Spiritual Transformation, he can also clearly sense that his comprehension of the rule of the Heaven and Earth Baking Furnace has not reached its true limit. It is only restricted by his cultivation level, which has reached the limit of his current Spiritual Transformation cultivation level.

This also means that his understanding and control over the rules of heaven and earth can still be improved.

If he could completely control the rule of the Heaven and Earth Baking Furnace, it would naturally be equivalent to him completely controlling the rule of the Heaven and Earth Baking Furnace.

Until then...

Maybe...he is...the rules!
Or in other words... use your body to conform to the Dao? Use your body to prove the Dao?

Is this the evolution of immortal cultivation after the fifth stage? Is the ultimate goal to prove the way with one's body? Or to be in harmony with the way with one's body?
If so, the mystery of the sixth level...

Chu Mu closed his eyes slightly, and with a touch of spiritual light, the countless rules and visions that he had previously comprehended in that world, and the supreme creation of the world's collapse, all reappeared and were taken into his perception.

The fifth level is to comprehend the rules and control the rules...

The most distinctive feature is the unique field formed by rules, that is, the control over the rules.

Under the suppression of rules, if one does not have the ability to control the rules, one will inevitably become an ant...

This type of control seems to be quite similar to the world's exclusion and suppression. Suppression at the rule level can indiscriminately target all living beings in the world, and specifically target a specific creature.

If we extend it to a higher level, the control of the rules will be deeper...

"Rule anomaly?"

At this moment, Chu Mu suddenly remembered the countless rule anomalies in that collapsed world, as well as the rule anomalies constructed by the vast amount of rule fragments after the world collapsed...

Chu Mu's fingertips moved slightly, and a golden stone hung in his palm.

The stone is irregular in shape, and even when it is suspended in the palm of your hand, you can still clearly feel the strong will on the stone.

It was like countless needles piercing the palm of his hand. The collision of the gold-attributed rule fragments completely transformed the virtual into the real, creating this strange rule spiritual object.

This is obviously also a kind of regular anomaly.

The existence of rule anomalies comes from the fact that the rules are rich and profound to a certain extent, turning the virtual into the real and manifesting in reality.

Does this mean that above the fifth level, the rules are manifested? Turning the virtual into the real?
A clear thread of thought emerged, and vaguely, Chu Mu seemed to have caught a glimpse of the way forward above the fifth level.

This path forward originates from the world of heaven and earth.

At least for now, he has no information to refer to.

“How should the words of vision be used and manifested?”

Chu Mu was thoughtful.

If it were just a vision manifestation, it wouldn't be difficult.

For example, he used the Furnace of Heaven and Earth to devour all things, used the Furnace of Heaven and Earth to isolate the inside and the outside, and even manifested the true essence of the Furnace. This can also be regarded as a manifestation of a vision.

But these are just illusions.

There is no real existence.

"So, the key to breaking through from level 5 to level 6 is to turn the rules from virtual to real, and to manifest the rules of a higher level of control?"

The more Chu Mu thought about it, the more he felt that his guess should have touched upon the essence of immortal practice.

This is not difficult to see from the immortal civilization in the world of immortal cultivation.

The so-called practice of immortality is actually the process of continuous transformation of the essence of life.

And this transformation process did not appear out of thin air. From the existence of the magic, it is obvious that the existence of the magic was evolved by imitating the bloodline powers of monsters.

The existence of formations and runes is obviously the result of evolving and creating by peeping into the veins of heaven and earth and understanding the rules of heaven and earth.

The so-called Qi training, foundation building, golden elixir, Nascent Soul...

It seems that man is imitating heaven and earth, or in other words, man follows the laws of heaven and earth. It does not appear out of thin air, nor is it achieved overnight.

At the beginning of the immortal path in the distant past, there must have been countless immortal sages who, like him now, were exploring higher levels of immortal practice and exploring higher levels of transformation of the essence of life.

Perhaps it is precisely because of the successive efforts of countless sages that we have the current immortal civilization. The so-called upper realm should be just a more advanced world than the immortal world, and the power it possesses is also more magnificent.

Just as Chu Mu was immersed in exploring the way forward, a faint noise suddenly came into his ears.

Chu Mu slowly opened his eyes and turned his head to look, only to see that at this moment in the center of the desert sea, a confrontation had already occurred between the two worlds.

Strong men from the nine military departments of Daheng stood there, dozens of legions were stationed in all directions, and on the periphery, there were dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators in different clothes, among whom there were several fourth-level great perfection monsters.

Judging from the aura of their cultivation, these people, although powerful demons, are obviously not Daheng cultivators.

The scene of the two sides confronting each other...

Chu Mu turned his head and looked, and saw a sword light cutting through the sky and whistling towards him.

The sword of the newcomer was so sharp that it reached the sky. He was obviously another Nascent Soul cultivator who did not belong to Daheng, and he was also a Nascent Soul with unparalleled sword skills.

At this moment, the rapidly approaching Nascent Soul swordsman had suddenly dropped from the sky and landed among the powerful team that was confronting Daheng.

"Master Changsheng..."

Chu Mu looked at the fourth-level masters who were confronting Daheng, as well as the leader of the Changsheng Sect who had just descended from the sky, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

It seems that a lot of things happened in the world of immortal cultivation during the time he was away from this world.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible for the top powers from all sides of the immortal cultivation world to unite so quickly just after Daheng mobilized the world's might.

However, when the leader of the Changsheng Sect arrived at the location, why didn't he notice his presence?

Chu Mu looked at himself with some doubt. Then he suddenly realized.

Just now, I was immersed in the understanding of the rules and the deduction of the future path of immortality, and I had quietly integrated myself into this world.

It is naturally impossible to detect his existence below the state of transformation.

As for whether Tian Xin would be aware of his existence because of this...

With such a powerful force being absorbed without any retreat, it is not easy to detect his existence.

"So, the other forces in the cultivation world want to stop Daheng?"

Chu Mu watched the confrontation silently and did not show up.

Absolute power gave him absolute confidence.

If he were just a Nascent Soul cultivator, he would naturally have great resistance to, and even fear of, the complete alienation of the world.

In such a demonic and completely alienated world, the survival rate of ordinary Nascent Soul masters is almost negligible if they want to survive.

Not to mention the creatures below the Nascent Soul stage, the extinction of their race is just around the corner.
