A journey of survival starting from Zhetian

Chapter 254: A Confrontation of Fate
Yuan Shui's pupils shrank sharply, reflecting the sharp edge that was so close to him and flashing a dark light. But the moment he wanted to use his divine power and will to defend himself, the will attack from the shadow demon enveloped him again, and an unavoidable pause appeared on his body for a moment.

This split second meant that he had no time to defend himself, and could only use the treasures on his body. However, in front of this race that specialized in hunting, the defense of the suit consisting of six top-level treasures of the tenth rank did not seem to provide much effect.

Sounds like breaking glass arose, and a dagger that was sharp enough to pierce anything directly cut through the lines of defense and directly annihilated 5% of his divine body in front of Yuan Shui's incredulous gaze.

He was defeated again after one strike. After fiercely releasing a secret technique onto Yuan Shui, the shadow demon did not give him any room to fight back. His figure appeared in the distance like a broken frame in a film without causing any fluctuations in space.

After Yuanshui sensed the situation of his own divine body, he did not hesitate and immediately manipulated the treasure to release a domain, increasing his own speed and evacuating quickly to other directions of the "Ring Source River".

The first time the shadow demon attacked him, it could be said to be a sneak attack, and he was hit before he could react, leaving him powerless to fight back. But the second time, he was already prepared, and he was fully focused, but he was still "sneak attacked" face to face, which only showed that the opponent's strength was far superior to his.

Yuanshui now possessed a divine body with perfect genetic level, and had created a seventh-order secret technique and eighth-order will. He also had a treasure suit consisting of six top-level tenth-order true god-level treasures as defense.

Even though the environment of the "Ring Source River" was complex, the colorless and transparent river water with a chaotic aura constantly fluctuated with the gravitational waves of the "Great Source of Samsara", and the fluctuations of various laws were overflowing, causing his strength to decline to a certain extent. But no matter how you calculate it, his hard power has at least reached the seventh level at this moment, and it is not weak among the seventh level.

In this case, after two battles, his divine body was reduced by nearly 10%. This fully proved that the strength of the Lord of the Unknown Law from the Shadow Demon Clan was definitely higher than his, and it was basically impossible to achieve a counterattack.

As for why Yuan Shui was sure that the attacker from the Shadow Demon Clan was not a true god, all he had to do was simply look at his body size. Before being promoted to a true god, the body of a god would grow as the gene multiples increased.

As for the size of the body of this member of the Shadow Demon Clan who made him almost powerless, he guessed based on the inheritance guidance information sold by the Xuanhuang Ancestor God in the [Mall] that the genetic level might have reached about 40,000.

With such a divine body and such strength, taking advantage of the complex environment of the "Ring Source River" to escape naturally became his only option.

Seeing that Yuanshui fled without hesitation, without any intention of staying to fight him, the Lord of Law from the Shadow Demon Clan was also stunned. When he came to his senses, Yuanshui had already created a considerable distance between him and him by relying on his domain, and was about to disappear from his sight.

Seeing this, the Lord of Laws grinned and said, "Oh, how cunning! What kind of changes have taken place in this reincarnation era of the original universe? He actually ran away after only two moves."

"With the strength of the seventh rank, I think he should be one of the top ones in the short time since the beginning of this cycle of the original universe. But his behavior doesn't seem like he has been in the universe for a long time. Could it be that he has seen a stronger one? Is he the one who has been promoted to a true god before he even ventured into the sea of ​​​​the universe? Interesting."

Without hesitation, the Lord of Laws, who was still hiding in the shadows, immediately chased after him. At the same time, his interest in hunting became more and more intense. It was not easy to meet a prey that was not far from his own realm and that he still had a chance to hunt.

According to his previous hunting experience, he originally thought that it would take hundreds of millions of epochs for the Lord of the Laws of the Primitive Universe to gradually appear, enter the cosmic ocean through some natural channels of the Primitive Universe to travel, improve himself, and then advance to a true god.

It was a surprise for the True God of their tribe to find a small universe that was very close to the original universe and had no records. The fact that he had promoted himself to a True God without ever traveling to the sea of ​​universes or using the resources produced there showed that the new True God was very talented.

And now, he actually found a life from the third reincarnation era with a strength of the seventh level in the sixth star ring in the universe. He was reluctant to give up this gift from fate, and it was impossible for him to give up.

The two of them, one chasing and the other fleeing, kept moving in the "Ring Source River". However, it seemed that their luck was working, and they began to approach the special place that resonated with the source water at a faster speed.

Seeing this situation, Xiong Mo, who was hiding in the dark, immediately used the way of destiny that was gradually recovering, activated the special vision unique to destiny, and looked at the source water that was constantly relying on the peculiar environment of the "Ring Source River" to avoid pursuit.

Looking intently, the majestic luck surrounding him has changed. The luck that was previously just surging like an undercurrent has now burned up when he was being hunted.

After the passive use of the source water's luck, it directly began to affect the direction of his future destiny in an extremely unique way, making the possibility of his future death continuously reduced, while the possibility of future promotion continuously increased.

Xiong Mo looked at the burning luck with a curious look, and whispered in his heart, "The fate of this world is so deeply entangled with luck, and after this luck burns more, it actually begins to directly affect various possibilities in the future, making the proportion of favorable aspects continue to increase. I really didn't expect this situation at the moment."

"Among the three worlds I have seen, only the luck in this world is so unique. This passive way of using luck is even more ingenious and profound than some of the active ways of using luck in the 'World of Shrouding the Sky'."

After watching the fluctuations of the source water's luck and his passive use of it, and gaining a deeper understanding of the operation of the fate of this world, Xiong Mo's level of [True God's Path: The Path of Destiny] suddenly increased, and he vaguely saw traces of the "Source of Destiny".

He suddenly sighed in his heart, "In the 'World of Shrouding Heaven', the corpse disaster has spread to the entire universe, and many supreme beings are unable to take action for various reasons. In such an apocalyptic era, Senior Brother Lingbao came into being as the savior to prove the truth and eliminate the corpse disaster."

"In the 'Panlong World', due to my guidance, many great perfections rose up. At the critical moment, they successfully ascended to the Supreme God, and finally opened up a path to improve themselves by comprehending the laws and rules. I changed the future era of the Lord God into the era of the Supreme God, which brought about a huge change in the fate of the world."

"And in this world, due to an unknown crisis buried deep inside, the luck of the entire universe sea responded, causing the source water of this reincarnation era to rise. After having the favor of luck and the source, it took on the responsibility of saving." "Sure enough, the time when fate is most active and easiest to be perceived is the key node in a certain era. And the key node of this era is actually the embodiment of fate at this time."

"'Era', or 'history', is also part of destiny."

When Xiong Mo combined his understanding of the fate of this world with his understanding of the "Panlong World" and the "Zhatian World", it was like three incomplete puzzle pieces coming together, allowing him to glimpse the essence of the path of "destiny" at a higher level - "history".

This part of the understanding did not directly improve his Taoism, but directly cleared away the fog that was currently preventing Xiong Mo from reaching a higher level with "destiny".

If he returns to the "Heavenly World" at this moment, he may have the chance to use "history", the essence of destiny, as a fulcrum to directly promote the "Path of Destiny" to the level of Quasi-Immortal King. Finally, using "history" as a fulcrum, he can support the entire long river of destiny to evolve into a complete prototype of the universe, and then be promoted to Quasi-Immortal King.

After raising the realm of [True God Path: Path of Destiny] a little, Xiong Mo suddenly felt another impulse, as if a faint crisis was approaching. Not approaching in time, but approaching in space. This crisis seemed to have come to him, close at hand.

This feeling made his face change slightly. Although the sense of crisis was not serious, he could see from his own feeling that he could solve this crisis. However, what made him uneasy was that the life that created the crisis for him this time had the ability to interfere with fate and cause and effect.

If [True God Path: Path of Destiny] had not been upgraded, he might not be able to sense the crisis until it was right in front of him. At the same time, this meant that there were lives in this universe that had embarked on the "path" of destiny, and that their ability to conceal their "destiny" on this "path" of destiny had surpassed him, who had not yet recovered to his peak state.

But after a short while, Xiong Mo calmed down again. He actually knew that in the universe, although there were few lives that followed the path of fate and cause and effect, as long as he traveled through enough worlds, he would always meet "fellow travelers".

What he didn't expect was that there were actually beings with this kind of "Tao" in this universe, and they had blinded his sixth sense for a period of time. It was only after he made a breakthrough in the "fate" of this world that he realized something was wrong.

The original universe, [Tianyong City], the Palace of Earth.

The original body of Xuanhuang Ancestor God suddenly opened his eyes, and traces of fate appeared in his pupils, like a winding river.

At the same time, he directly stopped all calculations of the fusion laws and mobilized the remaining computing power of the entire [Tianyong City], allowing it to be added to his own soul and will. The enormous divine power also surged from the Liangyi Mountain and began to be injected into his divine body.

Xiong Mo suddenly chuckled, but his eyes became more indifferent. "It's really unexpected that I can meet a 'comrade' in this universe. This surprise is big enough. But he is still so arrogant after knowing that I have broken through the cover of 'fate'. He didn't give up the intention of targeting me when I felt a sense of crisis. This is a bit ungrateful."

He suddenly felt that this "fellow" might think that he had no rival in "fate" and could do whatever he wanted. Moreover, relying on the long years of cultivation, he did not take him seriously at all.

Xiong Mo's smile became brighter. He had never tried a battle of fate, but now this opportunity was presented to him. "You look down on me, don't you? You think you have practiced for a long time and can crush me with your cultivation and Taoism, right? I hope you have the ability to do so in your attainment of fate."

A long illusory river suddenly rose up in front of him, with pure white flowing on it, carrying the fate trajectories of countless living beings that were changing every moment. This was the embodiment of Xiong Mo's [True God's Way: The Way of Destiny] in this world.

Xuan Huang Zu Shen took a step into the long river of illusion, and the starry sky of the universe immediately shattered like glass and turned into fragments, and then spun like a kaleidoscope. After a while of spinning like the sky and the earth, he entered a chaotic star sea with countless stars.

He could sense that every star here represented the embodiment of a living being's destiny. If one's cultivation and Taoism were sufficient to resist the backlash from fate, then one could rewrite the fate of a living being at will with just a slight touch.

Xiong Mo looked at the other side of the Chaos Star Sea at this time. He could clearly sense that the arrogant "fellow" was at the other side of the Chaos Star Sea, spying on him wantonly through the starlight in this Chaos Star Sea.

Obviously, after countless years of operation by that arrogant "comrade", this place has become his home ground. However, when Xiong Mo came here, he saw some loopholes that could be exploited with his vision far beyond this sea of ​​​​universe.

Xiong Mo sensed the dim figure vaguely visible at the other end of the Chaos Star Sea. Instead of looking at him with a slightly scrutinizing and disdainful gaze, his smile became even brighter, "Are you waiting for me to take action? Then don't regret it!"

A hazy but extremely bright starlight spread out from the depths of his consciousness, and in an instant it spread to the entire chaotic star sea. A twisted but invisible force that seemed to be the pillar of the universe instantly resonated with a certain underlying law here, and instantly seized the "authority" of a part of the chaotic star sea through a loophole.

The invisible destiny began to turn into substance and merged into Xiong Mo's body, enhancing his strength here. At the same time, it also directly caused the figure to lose some of his home advantage and suffer some backlash from destiny.

Under the impact of fate, the dim figure began to reveal itself, and said to Xiong Mo in a hoarse voice, "I didn't expect that in this reincarnation era, there would be a little bug that has such an understanding of fate."

Seeing the life that had revealed its figure, Xiong Mo suddenly seemed to understand something and said with a smile, "I also didn't expect that the Shadow Demon Clan, which enjoys hunting lives, also has a true god who is so proficient in fate."
