Poor Taoist Qiu Chuji

Chapter 346 The Ambition to Merge the World

A magical rain fell for a whole day and night.

In that day and night, many people's fates were changed as a result.

Many things that are familiar or taken for granted will become unfamiliar.

But that's not all that has changed.

Qiu Chuji repaid the world a hundredfold for the primordial energy he had once borrowed. As the world's foundation was strengthened, not only did all kinds of living beings open up avenues for advancement, but the world itself also gave birth to more blessed lands and treasure lands.

These places, through certain coincidences, will propel the destiny of certain chosen ones of the era, enabling them to lead the trend and guide the extraordinary civilization of the entire world to the next stage.

Qiu Chuji?
He is the biggest variable outside of calculation.

He doesn't need the world's approval, just as he can approve of anyone.

Simply put, he is a bug in this world.

But the world did not reject him. The reason is simple: the world recognized Qiu Chuji as a part of itself, as an agent of its laws and will... This is not a special treatment that has only recently appeared, but a conclusion that was already reached after Qiu Chuji used the Dragon-Slaying Secret Technique.

The Dragon-Slaying Secret Technique is also a method for cultivating earth immortals, gradually turning this realm into private property.

It can be said that in a world that can accommodate Qiu Chuji but cannot tolerate his wanton behavior, if he uses too harsh methods, he will definitely be rejected by the world. However, in this world, as long as Qiu Chuji does not want to become a world-destroying demon king, he can do whatever he wants.

In terms of global access, it's only slightly inferior to a small world.

To use an analogy, if this small world evolves into a mythological world, then Qiu Chuji would be Pangu. And if this 'Legend of the Condor Heroes' world evolves and is upgraded to the level of a mythological world, then Qiu Chuji would be the Dao Ancestor of this world.

Of course, whether it's upgrading a small world into a mythical world or upgrading this world into a mythical world, the difficulty is immeasurable.

Although Qiu Chuji has great authority in the former case, the small world is still in the initial stage of expansion, and even the basic rules are incomplete. It is still a long way from being called a complete world. In the latter case, the world itself has a low energy level, and Qiu Chuji's initiative is not enough to fundamentally rewrite the world. He can only follow the world's own pattern.

"Unless it's a combination of two..." This thought crossed Qiu Chuji's mind, but it remained just a thought.

After all, to enclose this world in a small universe is, at present, far more than just a snake swallowing an elephant.
As for letting this world absorb the smaller world?

Qiu Chuji wasn't that stupid!

He retreated from being the master of one world to the master of a small grotto-heaven or a small plane, and gave up the advantages of the Heavenly Star Path and the Heavenly Fishing, all for that one in a billion chance to turn the tables.

Moreover, the Dao Ancestor said, "Heaven and earth are ruthless, treating all things as straw dogs." Now that Qiu Chuji is promoting the world's upgrade, he is a good partner and a good friend. However, once this world feels threatened by Qiu Chuji and, with his help, gains the strength and ability to resist, it will discard him like worn-out shoes and cultivate a new "chosen one" to target Qiu Chuji in order to stop him from refining the world.

This has nothing to do with emotions or morality. The world itself does not have individual consciousness in the conventional sense, but its instinct for existence will lead it to make the choice that is most suitable for the world itself when it needs to make a choice.

However, the interests of the world and Qiu Chuji's interests are not entirely aligned.

Unless he is the world itself.

Therefore, if Qiu Chuji wanted to combine the two conveniences, he had only one option: to let the small world grow to a point where it could encompass other worlds, and then 'swallow' these worlds, merging their rules and existence.

However, by the time the small world grows to the point where it can swallow up other worlds, it is already quite powerful. Its rules, order, and even the ecology and civilization within the world have developed to a considerable degree.

Whether or not one devours other worlds seems to be of little importance. It's like having a divine skill that can devour and absorb the internal energy and true qi of other martial arts practitioners without any obstacles, burdens, or hidden dangers, but one must have over a hundred years of pure internal energy as a foundation.

Roar!
The red serpent leaped out of the water, interrupting Qiu Chuji's deep thoughts.

It has absorbed the Dragon King's essence blood that has been incorporated into the pond. Now its scales are red and purple, and blade-like scales have grown on its back. The dragon-like parts of its body have increased, but it also bears a resemblance to Ao Shun, who was killed by Qiu Chuji.

This means that the Red Serpent cannot absorb the Dragon King's essence blood for a short period of time. It needs to digest and settle for a while until its dragon form no longer resembles Ao Shun's, but rather reflects its own unique characteristics and choices. Only then can it continue.

Of course, Chi Hui can continue to absorb it if it wants, but in that case, it will become a child of Ao Shun's bloodline in a certain sense.

The ultimate growth ceiling is to reach the level of Ao Shun.

Calling it a dead end wouldn't be accurate, after all, Ao Shun was such a powerful dragon king, far stronger than ordinary immortals.

Looking at it from a higher vantage point, there are far too many beings that can stand atop it.

Even if we only consider the dragon race system, its influence extends to all the heavens, and it really doesn't rank among the top.

"Thank you...!" Chi Hui managed to utter the syllables, his voice deep yet slightly sharp.

"You're welcome!"

“Senior, remember to read more Taoist scriptures to calm your mind. I will come and help you after you have digested them!” Qiu Chuji waved his hand and said.

Chi Hui has finished his upgrade. Qiu Chuji plans to go find his master Wang Chongyang and several fellow disciples to help them get a boost as well. Then there are Lin Chaoying, Lin Xiaolan, Jin Yanzi, Dugu Qiubai, Lao Huang, and others, all lined up!

Of course, Qiu Chuji would only help this one more time.

Now that the world's potential has been fully unlocked, Qiu Chuji is helping them seize the initiative.

If they still can't occupy a top position in the upgraded world, then even if Qiu Chuji brings them to the bigger stage of the myriad worlds in the future, it will only harm them.

Take Yang Kang, for example. He's doing quite well in several different worlds now, and he's also found his own path and direction.

A few days ago, I contacted Qiu Chuji and went to Xiaotiandi. With Qiu Chuji's help, I also went to the zombie world for a trip.

He even took over some of the connections that Qiu Chuji had previously cultivated in the zombie world.

In that world, Qiu Chuji had made some follow-up arrangements, but he grew too fast, and the resources and potential of the zombie world could no longer keep up. Therefore, those backup plans were never used again.

Now that it has been handed over to Yang Kang, it can be considered that the master-disciple succession is in an orderly manner!
Inside Chongyang Palace, all the inner disciples gathered in the main hall, anxiously awaiting the guidance and answers from the sect leader, Master Ma Yu.

The enormous changes that had occurred in the world had naturally attracted the attention of the disciples of Chongyang Palace.

Moreover, because of the great eruption of primordial energy, which originated from the Qinling Mountains, Chongyang Palace was also greatly affected and impacted. The mountains near the mountain gate changed course, the rivers changed direction, and the vegetation grew wildly. The spiritual mist, which became so thick that it connected the mountain ranges, gathered into a unique phenomenon, temporarily isolating Chongyang Palace from the outside world.

After all, there are natural laws governing the universe. When the concentration of primordial energy increases, natural formations will naturally form in some mountains and rivers.

Today, the Chongyang Palace in Zhongnan Mountain is like a naturally formed array, where outsiders cannot enter and they cannot leave.
