World version update

Chapter 36 Version Change Value and Replacing Heaven with Human
Throughout the entire "On the Way of Heaven", all the text is about deduction and speculation about the changes of the Way of Heaven, but to others it seems completely absurd.

There are countless living fossils in the world of immortal cultivation who have watched the world change over time. If the way of heaven were to change, how could these living fossils not know?

The Taoist tradition of the world of immortal cultivation has been passed down since ancient times. It has experienced several major disasters during this period, but the lineage of the Taoist tradition is still clearly visible. If the way of heaven changes, the inheritance of the Taoist tradition will inevitably be affected.

But from the historical results, the so-called change of the way of heaven has never happened in the world of immortal cultivation. That is why the cultivators think these words are absurd.

What's more, the higher the level of cultivation, the closer one is to the Way of Heaven, and one cannot escape the constraints of the Way of Heaven. This kind of statement is, to some extent, denying the current system of cultivating immortals.

This kind of thinking is extremely outrageous, and no wonder some people regard it as crazy.

But in Lu Yan's eyes, there is another explanation for all this.

Lu Yan, who has experienced several version updates, knows very well that once a version update comes, everything except those that remain unchanged will change with the world version update, and even the underlying rules cannot escape restrictions.

Everyone is trapped in the chess game, unable to break free and can only evolve according to the version updates and changes. Isn't this also the change of the Way of Heaven as explained in "The Theory of the Way of Heaven"?
If it were just that, it would be fine, but the conjecture that the author of "On the Way of Heaven" expounded in the last paragraph really inspired Lu Yan.

[Use yourself to change the way of heaven, and use man to replace heaven! 】

This was a crazy idea, but Lu Yan now saw a glimmer of possibility.

As the only unchanging person in the world, Lu Yan can influence the direction of the next version update to a certain extent, but this is far from being able to replace heaven with man.

All Lu Yan did was to choose one of the three options for version updates. Ultimately, the world still runs according to the rules of version updates.

The real foundation of replacing heaven with man lies in the version change value!
"Each version represents a kind of heavenly way, the direction of evolution of the world. Originally, everything was running within the established framework of heavenly way.

But as an Immovable One, I possess abilities beyond the current version of the world. When I display abilities beyond the current version in this version, the original order of heaven has been disrupted.

In the urban version without any supernatural powers, I comprehended the method of cultivation and became the only immortal cultivator in this world, and obtained a version change value of 3%.

In the apocalypse, I slaughtered more than 0.2 zombies. Although this number is not much compared to the entire apocalyptic world, using the resentful souls to strip the zombies of their souls is destroying the foundation of the apocalypse, and also brought about a % version change value. "

“These two world versions have changed under my influence. If the version change value reaches 100%, does it mean that my actions have changed the world version and created a completely new version?

Can this practice be called using humans to replace heaven?"

Lu Yan looked at the "Theory of Heaven's Way" in his hand with an extremely excited expression.

The reason why he kept choosing to travel through different versions and trying every means to improve his strength was because of his sense of crisis about the changes in the world versions.

With the general trend of version changes, the power of individuals is too weak, and even if there is one out of three choices, absolute safety cannot be guaranteed.

Especially after several version updates, Lu Yan found that the complexity of these versions had exceeded his expectations.

After only a few version updates, dangerous versions such as Mystery, God of War, and Strange Stories appeared.

Just imagine, if there is a version with three choices: Taoism, weird stories, and mysterious revival, with Lu Yan's current strength, he will be dead no matter where he goes.

Lu Yan is not afraid of the high power system of the world version, but is worried that these world versions are too chaotic and difficult to control.

Now, the idea of ​​replacing heaven with man as expounded in "The Theory of Heaven's Way", combined with the version changes he has come into contact with, has given Lu Yan the opportunity to truly touch the essence of the world's version updates.

Turning to the first page of "The Theory of Heaven's Way", Lu Yan only saw the author's name.

Zhao Huowang.

A very ordinary name. According to He Dongsheng, Zhao Huowang was just an ordinary person in the Mortal Dynasty. After writing "The Theory of Heaven", he was once regarded as a madman.

But Lu Yan believed that Zhao Huowang must have realized something, which is why he wrote this seemingly outrageous book "Theory of Heaven's Way".

“According to the book, the higher your cultivation level, the more you will be bound by the Xianxia version, and it will be difficult for you to perceive the changes in the version update.

On the contrary, Zhao Huowang, as an ordinary person, has a better chance of getting to know the truth behind the version update."

"Madman? Genius? Maybe there's only a fine line between them."

Lu Yan sighed in his heart and put the book "Theory of Heaven's Way" in his hand into his storage bag.

Although the idea of ​​replacing heaven with man has been obtained, this method is not suitable in the fairy-tale version.

The Xianxia version is a version with an extremely high level of power. A Jindan Zhenren can destroy a city with a wave of his hand. Lu Yan’s cultivation foundation also comes from the Xianxia version.

With Lu Yan's current strength, the impact he can have on the Xianxia version is completely negligible, and it is difficult to make any changes to the Xianxia version.

The only hope at this stage is still in the urban version, which is where Lu Yan can truly perform.

However, before that, Lu Yan still has to try his best to make up for his own shortcomings in the fairy-xia version and improve his cultivation strength.

Opening the "Compendium of First-Level Spells", Lu Yan began to study these low-level spells in detail.

Half a month later, in the middle-grade cave where Lu Yan lived, a beam of emerald green light flew up and down inside the cave, at a speed so fast that it was difficult to capture with the naked eye.

The light passed across the cave wall, easily penetrating the hard rock and leaving a deep scratch on it.

In the center of the cave, Lu Yan waved his right hand and took back the emerald green light into his palm. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be an exquisite jade sword.

During the past half month, Lu Yan has been practicing in seclusion.

When he was hungry, he would eat one spirit stone and three bottles of fasting pills. When he was thirsty, he would drink the pure water condensed by the water condensation technique. He put all his remaining energy into practicing magic.

Thanks to Lu Yan's three months of practice in the apocalyptic version, during which he inhaled and exhaled the moonlight spiritual energy to strengthen his soul, Lu Yan's control over magic power far exceeded that of ordinary Qi-cultivating cultivators.

In addition, most of the spells in the "First-level Spell Collection" were developed to facilitate the lives of monks. Most of these first-level spells are of low or medium quality, and there is not a single high-quality spell.

For Lu Yan, there is almost no bottleneck in his practice.

In half a month, Lu Yan had mastered the commonly used magic spells.

In addition, Lu Yan also spent several days refining the mid-grade flying sword he got from the storage bag.

Originally, Lu Yan wanted to sell this mid-grade flying sword, but then he considered that the flying sword was related to the Red Lotus Demon Sect and could not be sold easily.

In addition, apart from the Hundred Souls Banner, Lu Yan has no conventional means of attack.

The spells in the "First-Level Spell Collection" were too low-level to be used against the enemy, so Lu Yan chose to refine the magic weapon flying sword as a supplement to his offensive means.

"After all, we can't use the Hundred Souls Banner to kill everyone at the scene every time we encounter danger, right?"
