My cultivation is too warm

After receiving the news about Shisheng, Xu Mo rushed over to meet up with him immediately.

Xu Mo was surprised as soon as he saw Shi Sheng.

Because at this moment, Shisheng's expression was serious, and his solemn appearance and temperament made him look like a completely different person from his usual self.

However, it was also because of Shisheng's appearance that Xu Mo felt that this trip was not simple.

"You're here? Let's go." After seeing Xu Mo, Shi Sheng didn't say much and directly invited him to get in the car.

"Shall we drive there?" Xu Mo asked, looking at Shi Sheng's bright red chibi sports car with a puzzled expression.

Something feels off. Isn't this supposed to be a very important and serious matter? A powerful figure above the Dao Venerable level driving this chibi-style sports car to do something really important doesn't seem very serious.

Upon hearing this, Shisheng shook his head. "To be precise, it's flying in a chariot."

"Ah, this..." Xu Mo was speechless. He could understand controlling swords, knives, or even other random weapons, but controlling a chariot... Doesn't a chariot already move?
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Mo still offered his suggestion, "Senior brother, can't we get there in another way?"

Upon hearing this, Shisheng's expression hardened. "What? Do you have a problem with my Sun God sports car?"

Xu Mo quickly shook his head and explained, "No, no, no, what I mean is, it would be bad if we bumped or scratched this precious sports car on the road. After all, the materials used in this car are relatively ordinary and it can't withstand any rough handling."

Shisheng's expression softened, and he said confidently, "Don't worry, with me here, there will definitely be no problem."

Upon seeing the doubtful look on Xu Mo's face, he quickly added, "I haven't sealed my cultivation level yet."

Upon hearing this, Xu Mo immediately felt that it made a lot of sense. Since he couldn't persuade the other party, he might as well let him be. After all, the other party was a big shot.

After getting in the car, it quickly flew towards the sky. The journey was very smooth, without any bumps. All the air resistance automatically cleared the way for the sports car.

On the way, Xu Mo looked at Shi Sheng and asked, "Senior brother, how did you determine that the time was right?"

He remembered that his senior sister Lin Miaoqing had been acting strangely before, and wondered if it was related to this. He then wondered if something had happened to her.

To everyone's surprise, Shisheng shook his head and replied, "No, the real time has not yet come. Little Dot has not yet undergone her transformation. Originally, we were supposed to wait until she officially transformed before we retrieved her old sword."

"If that's the case, why was it suddenly brought forward?" Xu Mo asked, puzzled.

Shisheng glanced at him and said, "Aren't you Canggu Dao Alliance and the Alien Realm Alliance planning to explore the distorted Heavenly Path?"

Xu Mo was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. "What does this have to do with what we're doing now?"

Instead of answering his question directly, Shisheng asked, "Aren't you wondering why I didn't take advantage of Little Dot's transformation to make a move against her?"

Xu Mo didn't hide anything and replied without hesitation, "Strange, really strange, I just can't figure it out."

After a brief silence, Shi Sheng organized his thoughts and said, "Actually, at first, I was simply afraid to gamble on whether Little Dot had any tricks up her sleeve because I hadn't recovered to my full strength. If she did, I might not be able to kill her in time and could expose myself, which would be a real problem for me."

Xu Mo nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this. This idea was understandable. After all, with so many Dao Venerable experts in Cang Gu, it wouldn't be a problem for them to gang up on Shi Sheng, whose strength had not yet fully recovered.

At this point, Shisheng continued, "But later... I realized that Little One hadn't left any tricks up her sleeve. If I had attacked her, I could have killed her without any effort, but I still didn't choose to do so."

"Why is that?" Xu Mo was slightly surprised. Could it be that Senior Brother Shisheng had really been exonerated?

Shisheng grinned and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Because I don't like owing favors. No, I should say I don't care about other people's favors, but Little Dot is the only enemy I ever truly acknowledged. I absolutely cannot allow myself to owe her a favor."

"Human favors?" Xu Mo was completely confused.

Shisheng nodded. "It should be said that all life in the myriad worlds and endless spacetime owes Little Dot a favor, a huge favor."

"What did Senior Sister do?" Xu Mo asked, puzzled.

Upon hearing this, Shisheng revealed a displeased expression, "This is related to the distorted Heavenly Road."

He looked at Xu Mo and asked, "The people from the Canggu Dao Alliance must have told you about the future collapse, right?"

Xu Mo nodded.

Shisheng nodded slightly and continued, "If we compare the endless space and time of the myriad worlds to a water cup, then the Great Dao Venerable realm is an existence that surpasses the capacity of this water cup. Once it appears, it will break this water cup."

"But now, in the endless space and time of the myriad worlds, there have appeared three Great Dao Venerables, including myself and Little Dot, as well as two beings who have not yet fully broken through but have already surpassed the limit of this water cup's capacity, and even more beings who are secretly breaking through."

"But aside from the fact that the future is collapsing, this glass is still intact. Do you know why?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Mo frowned and pondered for a moment before replying hesitantly, "Could it be that Senior Sister did something?"

Shisheng nodded. "Actually, it was only after the war between the Ancient World and the Alliance of Other Realms that I discovered that when Xianqing and I fought, this Chaos had already been shattered because we both broke through to the Great Dao Venerable Realm."

"The reason why it can still exist today is because Xianqing sacrificed all of his own Dao to repair this chaos and further increase its upper limit."

"That's why Xianqing has become the little one she is today."

Xu Mo was slightly surprised to hear this. There was such a thing. If that was the case, then it was really as Shi Sheng said. All life in the myriad worlds and endless time and space owed Senior Sister Lin Miaoqing a favor. If it weren't for her, the myriad worlds would probably not exist now.

Just then, he heard Shi Sheng's tone turn serious as he continued, "In fact, what she did was not just that." "Hmm?" Xu Mo was slightly taken aback. What else did his senior sister do? Judging from Shi Sheng's reaction, it must have been something even more significant than repairing the myriad worlds and raising their limits.

After a moment of silence, Shisheng continued, "This brings us to what the Canggu Dao Alliance and the Alien Realm Alliance are doing now."

He looked at Xu Mo and asked, "How do you think the distorted Heavenly Road was formed?"

Xu Mo pondered for a moment, then his expression turned to shock, and he asked incredulously, "Senior brother, do you mean that there is a mastermind behind the Twisted Heavenly Path?"

Shisheng nodded. "That's right, that's exactly it. Otherwise, how could so many extraterrestrial realms descend upon this chaos? You must understand that what descended was not just individual worlds, but a realm encompassing countless worlds. How could an endless number of realms descend here without a mastermind behind it all?"

He paused for a moment, then continued, "After discovering that Little Dot had repaired this chaotic realm, I traced back my memories through countless clues and found that when I fought Xianqing and broke through to the Great Dao Venerable realm at the same time, it was the most dangerous moment for this chaotic realm."

"Because the mastermind behind it all has been waiting for the opportunity of the chaos to shatter, attempting to completely annihilate all the heavens within this chaos."

"It was because of Xianqing's intervention that the mastermind's attempt was thwarted, allowing this chaotic world to continue to exist to this day."

"When chaos shatters, some powerful individuals, such as those above the sixth realm, still have a chance to survive. Those at the seventh realm and above have almost a 100% chance of surviving. However, if the mastermind strikes when everyone is at their weakest, then there is virtually no chance of anyone surviving. This is why I said I owe Little Dot a favor."

"Although I don't want to admit it, I am indeed alive today because of her."

"This..." Xu Mo was shocked after hearing Shi Sheng's story. He hadn't expected that there really was a mastermind behind the Twisted Heavenly Road, and from Shi Sheng's words, it seemed that the mastermind had been watching them all along.

He suddenly looked alarmed and asked, "If that's the case, then isn't the Heavenly Road extremely dangerous? Why didn't you stop it, Senior Brother?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Sheng gave him a strange look and asked, "Why did you try to stop me?"

Xu Mo was slightly taken aback, then hesitated and said, "That way, we won't be caught by the mastermind behind the scenes..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shisheng interrupted him, saying, "We're going to find the mastermind behind this."

As he spoke, he looked into the distance and continued, "The Canggu Dao Alliance and the Extraterrestrial Alliance should both realize that there is a mastermind behind the distorted Heavenly Road. The reason we continue to explore is to find the mastermind, locate them, and then eliminate them."

"Eliminate the mastermind?" Xu Mo looked puzzled, then asked incredulously, "Is such a thing really possible?"

Shisheng stared at him in confusion, "Why can't you do it?"

Xu Mo swallowed hard, organized his thoughts, and replied, "What I mean is, since the mastermind behind this can distort the Heavenly Path and send them into this chaos without those extraterrestrial realms being able to detect it, their strength must be very powerful, right? In that case, do we really have any hope of eliminating them?"

In Xu Mo's mind, since there has always been a mastermind behind everything in the endless universe, then the other party's strength must be far beyond this dimension, otherwise they would not be able to do all this.

The Ancient World and the Alliance of Extraterrestrial Realms are likely being used as experimental fields, games, or other objects of observation by the mastermind behind the scenes, or perhaps even kept in captivity.

In short, the positioning wasn't very good.

However, the idea of ​​eating life directly shattered his concept.

Shi Sheng calmly said, "Why do you think they are strong? Think about it carefully. If they were really that powerful, why would they go to the trouble of sending the alien realms to this chaos? Wouldn't it have been simpler to just erase this chaos?"

"The fact that they didn't do that proves they couldn't, which is why they thought of sending the alien realms here, hoping to use their power to destroy this chaos."

"Hmm?" Xu Mo exclaimed in surprise. He then explained his point of view, but Shi Sheng rejected it without hesitation.

Shisheng said calmly, "While the possibility you mentioned isn't nonexistent, it's practically nonexistent."

"Why?" Xu Mo asked, somewhat puzzled.

Shisheng replied calmly, "Because I am the Great Dao Venerable, there is one thing I can be sure of: the Great Dao Venerable is the most powerful realm at present."

He glanced at Xu Mo and added, "When I say 'most powerful,' I mean one that encompasses all concepts. Whether it's this chaos or other chaos beyond the Heavenly Road, as long as the concept of 'great power' exists, then the Great Dao Venerable is the strongest."

"This is the intuition of a cultivator, a very mysterious intuition. In fact, cultivators can have this feeling once they reach the seventh realm of Dao Integration. They can sense how far the road ahead is. Once a new realm appears, they can sense it in the darkness. As more and more people reach that realm, this perception will become clearer and clearer."

"I don't sense any new realm above the Great Dao Venerable realm right now, so I'm certain that the mastermind behind this doesn't possess a realm above the Great Dao Venerable realm. The most likely scenario is that they possess the Great Dao Venerable realm, and their numbers are slightly greater than ours."

"This is the most dangerous assessment of them."

Upon hearing this, Xu Mo asked in confusion, "If that's the case, then how did they manage to send in the alien realms?"

Shisheng smiled slightly, his gaze falling on him. He stared at him for a while and said, "I didn't understand it before either, but after seeing the scientific path you created, Junior Brother, I understand it now."

Xu Mo was slightly taken aback, then said with some surprise, "Senior brother, do you mean using scientific methods? Can science do something so amazing?"

He was somewhat puzzled. Could it be that the ultimate goal of cultivating immortality is science fiction?
Shisheng shook his head. "No, it's not science. What I mean is, they may have used a power outside of cultivation, or perhaps there was a distorted Heavenly Path that they discovered, and they used this method to send the alien realms into this chaos."

"In short, one thing is certain: they are definitely not as powerful as you imagine, junior brother. It's impossible for them to be several levels stronger than us."

"As for the possibility that the test site amusement park would keep us as playthings and keep us under constant surveillance, that's even less likely."

"I am even more convinced of my judgment that the mastermind behind this is not much stronger than us, and may even be weaker than us. They just happened to have mastered a method that we did not know about."
