Data cultivation, I observe immortality in the five elements

In the void, the fragmented imagery is intense, so real it's hard to tell what's happening.

Man-made disasters, natural calamities, desolation, and barrenness.
This is the future in the evolution of destiny!
The next moment, the misty light in Luo Yan's eyes disappeared, and she returned to her clear state.

He subconsciously glanced at the ground beneath his feet, his heart trembling slightly. He never expected that a cub of a monstrous beast would be lurking there.

Legend has it that this strange beast is the embodiment of calamity, bringing misfortune wherever it goes.

It has no physical form or body; it is simply a ball of extremely pure and special energy.

But in terms of destructive power, the growth process of this monstrous natural disaster is in no way inferior to the Star Giant race that Luo Yan had seen before.

The Star Giants are a race that feeds on the essence of stars to strengthen themselves.

However, the monstrous beasts caused calamities, leading to the destruction of the world, and in the process, they received the blessing of a mysterious power, ultimately growing stronger.
Although these two types of beings grow in different ways, they happen to have one thing in common: they both rely on an ancient life star as sustenance to achieve their full potential.
Big trouble is brewing in the Flying Cloud Realm!

If this is not handled properly, this world will surely perish!

The problem is that these monstrous natural disasters are almost always without a physical form before they have fully matured.

Even Luo Yan's warning could not resolve the crisis on Feiyun Star.

He couldn't very well have that Flying Cloud Star Envoy destroy this ancient life star and then extract that wisp of calamity energy to prove that what he said was true, could he?
If we did that, wouldn't it be putting the cart before the horse, and the Flying Cloud Star Envoy would lose its purpose?

Therefore, the world beneath Luo Yan's feet cannot be destroyed!

Fortunately, although the calamity beast cub was not visible, Luo Yan still managed to detect many sources of calamity energy by circling Feiyun Star.

The most vibrant place was beneath the ruins of the Ziyang Sect.

At this moment, Luo Yan really had a plan to immediately remind Fei Yunxing Envoy and then have him take action to extract the calamity energy.

However, Luo Yan soon realized that this approach only addressed the symptoms, not the root cause.

There are simply too many places on Flying Cloud Star where calamity exists.

In just one lap of his flight, he discovered no fewer than ten places where calamity-inducing energy was concentrated.

How many places are there that Luo Yan hasn't discovered?

What if the calamity beast cub is disturbed during the Flying Cloud Envoy's attack, causing it to hide?

"Never mind, that's none of my business. I just need to give you a heads-up."

Luo Yan shook his head, dismissing the thought of being compassionate and saving the world.

It wasn't that he wanted to stand by and watch someone die, but that he was truly powerless to help.

Some things are destined to happen!
"This was an ancient life-bearing planet even larger than the Cangwu Realm. It's truly a pity that it was destroyed in just a few hundred years."

Luo Yan sighed, his eyes glimpsing a corner of the future, for the land beneath his feet was about to undergo a dramatic change.

From lush vegetation to desolate wasteland, stretching for thousands of miles, it took less than a thousand years.
The fall of an ancient star with life is truly shocking!
But Luo Yan was powerless to change anything.

This is the grand trend of the universe; the power of one person is simply too small, so small as to be insignificant.

"Now that the secrets of heaven have been revealed, the most important thing I should do is to remind that Flying Cloud Star Envoy."

Luo Yan thought to himself, everything in this world, every drink and every bite, is preordained.

If it's just a casual act of help, then it's nothing; he doesn't mind helping the beings of this world.

The problem is that this calamity is far too great. With Luo Yan's power, he can only notify the Flying Cloud Star Envoy at most, and that's the end of it.

But this presents another problem for Luo Yan.

Those who try to peek into fate will ultimately be devoured by fate!

This is not a rumor, but a real fact, which makes Luo Yan extremely hesitant to act rashly.

He wanted to complete his mission, but he also didn't want to be betrayed by fate.

Otherwise, he's deliberately courting death!
Because once Luo Yan glimpsed a fragment of fate, he himself had already fallen into the sight of the Heavenly Dao consciousness and certain great beings.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why the concept of fate turning against you exists.

If the universe has self-awareness, then the river of time should also have self-awareness.

Or perhaps, there exists some indescribable, unspeakable, and ineffable great being, looking down upon everything in the universe from the shadows.

The thought of having to outwit such an unknown entity sent chills down Luo Yan's spine.

The power of destiny he possessed was merely a superficial understanding, not even worth a ripple in the vast river of destiny.

Therefore, Luo Yan needs to find a safer way to avoid that unknown backlash.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be carrying out a mission; he would be deliberately courting death.

Initially, Luo Yan intended to use some covert method to warn Fei Yunxing Envoy that this ancient life star was about to undergo a great calamity.

For example, leave a few simple words, images, or use a game of chess to remind someone.

Just as Luo Yan was about to do so, his spiritual senses detected a faint pricking sensation, as if warning him of an unknown danger approaching.

Luo Yan had no choice but to give up.

Clearly, all of his attempts ultimately failed.

That pricking sensation, like a pair of emotionless eyes, seemed to be watching Luo Yan's every move intently.

If he does anything out of line, he will inevitably face retribution from that unknown being.

This is absolutely terrifying!

Luo Yan originally thought that the consciousness of heaven and earth was a kind of inanimate object that only knew how to follow the rules, but unexpectedly, he became a clown.

The intelligence of the consciousness of heaven and earth is no less than that of real humans!

The past and the future are supposed to be abstract, ethereal, and undefinable.

Yet at this moment, it materialized and could threaten Luo Yan's every move, as if it were a biological instinct.
This has already proven a lot.

Luo Yan even noticed that, despite not having done anything, a wisp of tribulation energy had unknowingly condensed above his own head.

It looked as if it might fall down at any moment.

This backlash startled Luo Yan, who immediately dispelled the rumors of a great calamity.

It was at this moment that Luo Yan finally confirmed a fact: the Heavenly Dao of this world is conscious, and the Heavenly Dao above the Heavenly Dao is also conscious!

The river of fate he peered into probably also possessed self-awareness and was monitoring all living beings in the world.
"Ugh, this is troublesome."

Luo Yan rubbed his temples, a sense of helplessness welling up inside him. He had underestimated the problem.

Peeking into destiny, enacting fragments of the future, and then somehow reminding others of them.
This was supposed to be a pre-planned path.

But who would have thought that no matter how well the plan was made, it would deviate from reality?

Writing, drawing, playing chess, and communicating are all ineffective.

Because that unknown entity in the darkness directly locked onto Luo Yan's every move and kept a close watch on him.

With such tight security, any action Luo Yan takes is likely to be magnified to the extreme.

This led to the fate of that mysterious being.

Some things, if you don't experience them firsthand, will always remain just empty talk.

It's no wonder that although there are many successors of the Heavenly Fortune Star, almost none of them were able to persevere in the end.

No wonder Palace Master Gongsun set his sights on Luo Yan, instead of favoring Leng Zijin, who had received the True Immortal's inheritance.

This thing is really like a death warrant; the more secrets you reveal, the greater the danger to yourself!
There is that kind of calamity that could descend at any moment. One or two leaks of heavenly secrets are fine, but once the leaks happen too often and for too long, no one can withstand the backlash from the heavenly way!

Did you not hear what Palace Master Gongsun said: "There has never been a successor of the Heavenly Fortune Star who has been able to stay in the Heavenly Fortune Star for eight hundred years!"
Just from this sentence, you can feel a naked cruelty!
Under the influence of calamity, all beings are equal!
Just think about it, the Earth Immortal Alliance owns three thousand minor realms. Not to mention that every minor realm will face calamities in the next few hundred years.

Even if there is only a one in ten or one in twenty chance of a calamity occurring, how enormous would the calamity energy that eventually gathers together be?
Even a wisp of calamity energy is enough to make someone like Luo Yan tremble with fear and trepidation.

If a few more strands were added, the consequences would be truly unimaginable.
In this situation, no matter how strong your luck is, it will eventually run out, leading to disaster.

Just like the enormous tribulation cloud that echoed above the Five Elements Sect, under its overwhelming cover, all the disciples of the Five Elements Sect would be affected, and no one could escape that True Immortal Tribulation.

It's simply a matter of priorities.

"That's not right. If that's the case, how did Palace Master Gongsun manage to withstand so many backlashes from heaven and earth?"

Luo Yan was puzzled, but then he immediately thought of the elder in his own sect.

Since there exists a supreme and great power, or a fixed operating order, in this universe.

Then there should be no exceptions who can escape the backlash of heaven and earth and live in peace for thousands of years.

Even if that person was an old monster at the Mahayana Realm, one of the absolute strongest beings in this world.

There shouldn't be any exceptions!

Compared to those great beings in the unseen realm, the mere powerhouses of the human world are not worth mentioning.

It can only be considered a slightly larger ant.

Even if a larger ant appears, the higher one's cultivation level, the less affected one will be.

But there's absolutely no way to escape that fateful backlash!
Therefore, our own Palace Master Gongsun must have some special way of avoiding the backlash of revealing heavenly secrets.

After all, calamity energy is no joke; it is something that can truly change the fate of a living being. It is the most mysterious and unpredictable calamity power in the world, bringing crisis to the world invisibly.

If Lord Gongsun possessed such great power, wouldn't he have already become an immortal through the righteous path?

"If Palace Master Gongsun truly possesses that ability to evade the backlash of heaven and earth, why doesn't he pass on that technique?"

Luo Yan pondered, feeling puzzled by this legendary palace master. Beings at his level, as long as they wished to pass on the Dharma, even if it was a scripture or secret technique at the True Immortal level, would have some kind of spiritual imprint.

But if they want to, they definitely have a way to pass on the scriptures and techniques.

Once this secret method for avoiding disaster is passed on, then any backlash from heaven and earth will no longer be a problem.

But the elder did nothing but keep searching for the successor of the Heavenly Fortune Star.
"Could it be that Palace Master Gongsun's cultivation level has reached a transcendent level?"

Luo Yan thought of a possibility, but quickly dismissed the idea.

This is impossible!

Absolutely impossible!
If that palace master possessed such abilities, why would he go to such lengths to snatch the immortality quota from the Earth Immortal Alliance?
Why not just hide away quietly and become an immortal on your own?

Thinking about this, Luo Yan finally realized the thorny nature of the problem. He dared not make a decision directly, but instead prepared to ask the Palace Master for advice.

However, due to the limitations of the summoning technique, the consciousness of the second spirit body can only exist in this world for the time being, so it is inconvenient for Luo Yan to directly find Palace Master Gongsun.

Therefore, the second spirit body called upon the original body through the reflection of the spiritual imprint, and told the original body about its current doubts, asking the original body to inquire of Lord Gongsun on its behalf.

Red Sea, within Extreme Wind Island.

Luo Yan's main body opened its eyes and felt the faint call from its second spiritual body, causing its brows to furrow slightly.

He carefully sensed the message conveyed by his second spiritual body from the imprint of boundless spiritual radiance.

The next moment, Luo Yan's mind appeared in the identity token, and he called out the name of Palace Master Gongsun.

A day later, within the identity token space, Palace Master Gongsun finally met with Luo Yan.

But before Luo Yan could speak, the old man with deep eyes shook his head and smiled, saying, "I already know why you've come!"

"But the secrets of Heaven are shrouded in mystery; they cannot be spoken of, they cannot be spoken of!"

Luo Yan bowed respectfully, slightly surprised, and could only nod in agreement.

"According to my original calculations, you should have come here twenty years ago to discuss things with me."

"But man proposes, God disposes; you little fellow, you're still twenty years too late!"

Gongsun Yan sighed softly, his cloudy eyes filled with regret, a mixture of dissatisfaction and melancholy towards himself.

The art of deduction emphasizes observation and calculation. If the glimpse of fate He sees does not match what actually happens, then...

This shows that the predetermined course of fate has changed.

The twenty-year time gap meant that Gongsun Yan's predictions were wrong, and the pieces in the fragment of fate were no longer under his control.

After all, a slight difference can lead to a huge discrepancy, and this is also true in matters of fate.

"That's the variable!"

Gongsun Yan sighed again, his gaze complex, a strange meaning mixed in as he looked at the young man in blue opposite him.

"Lord of the Palace."

Luo Yan's eyes were clear, but her face showed a look of confusion.

But a sudden realization struck him: twenty years ago, wasn't that exactly when he broke through to the Void Refinement Realm? (End of Chapter)
