All-Heavens Game, the Strongest Player

Chapter 127 Wang Ye: I just glanced at him in the crowd!
"The Celestial Master can control all living beings, but he cannot control the Heavenly Way; he can control the major sects, but he cannot control the Eight Extraordinary Techniques!" The old Celestial Master shook his head and said, "I don't know what happened after the Thirty-Six Thieves gathered back then, nor do I know how they comprehended the Eight Extraordinary Techniques from the Qi formation!"

At this point, he looked at Zhang Chulan.

He added, "All I know is that those eight extraordinary techniques can break through the 'Divine Celestial Master's' blockade, and the key to breaking through the blockade lies with him!"

As expected of the protagonist of the original work, everything, after twists and turns, ultimately comes back to Zhang Chulan.

No wonder Gong Qing said that to completely resolve the Jia Shen Rebellion, Zhang Chulan should be killed.

With him around, no matter how the Celestial Master protects them, the Eight Extraordinary Skills will eventually be perfected, breaking through the limitation of not being able to become an immortal and reaching the realm of "immortal".

“Even if someone who cultivates the Eight Extraordinary Techniques becomes an immortal, they will still ascend to heaven!” Zhou Wushang said.

The end of cultivation is death, so whether you break through the blockade or not makes no difference.

"Initially, someone needed to actively guide that Qi formation, or even actively inject Qi into it! Later, it learned to activate itself and to actively devour. If it devours enough immortals, sooner or later it will no longer be satisfied with just devouring immortals!"

Zhang Zhiwei did not say anything more.

There's no need to say anything more.

When the Heavenly Way becomes greedy, it will surely devour the Human Way and absorb all living things, turning them into its own nourishment.

For the universe itself, the absence of living beings is not a major problem.

Even if there is only one Heavenly Dao, it can still support an entire world!
"After learning the truth, Wugensheng completely gave up and now we don't know if he's alive or dead. As for Junior Brother Huaiyi, he is a successor of my Celestial Master's Mansion, and like me, he is trying to find a way to solve the problem of the evil thoughts of the Heavenly Dao!" Zhang Zhiwei added.

If Zhang Huaiyi hadn't run away first, and if he hadn't been beaten up and brought back by his master, he wouldn't have inherited the Heavenly Master's Mandate.

Perhaps he will choose to do the same as Zhang Huaiyi, betray his master, and seek other solutions.

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Master's Blessing is both a power and a shackle.

Zhang Zhiwei must be a "Celestial Master" and cannot do anything that is inconsistent with the identity of a Celestial Master!

"I understand!" Chu Xiu exclaimed in realization. "Zhang Huaiyi's method is to use the Eight Extraordinary Techniques to cultivate a being similar to a deity or celestial master, and use it to bear the evil thoughts of the Heavenly Dao and extract them. In that case, perhaps eight immortal and indestructible 'Heavenly Demons' with power comparable to immortals will be born in this world, but the Heavenly Dao will return to normal and will never deteriorate further!"

In this way, future generations can become immortals.

By continuously accumulating strength, sooner or later the problems of the "Eight Demons" and the "Heavenly Dao" will be completely resolved!

"He even made further plans!" Chu Xiu looked at Zhang Chulan and said, "The evil thought was extracted into one being, and another person used a special technique to connect with the Heavenly Dao after the evil thought was extracted, and used the power of the Heavenly Dao to restrain the being that carried the evil thought!"

What exactly are the Eight Extraordinary Skills?

It is the Dao principles left behind by eight top experts who were once devoured by the Heavenly Dao.

Now, it is part of the power of Heaven.

It is both a manifestation of the power of Heaven and a means of checking and balancing Heaven. It all depends on how others use it and whether they have the ability to grasp this point!
Zhang Chulan embodies all of Zhang Huaiyi's hopes.

The key is to seize the authority of the "Qi Source Flow" to deal with the "Heavenly Demons" born from this system!

“But there’s one thing that Brother Huaiyi might be mistaken about!” the Old Celestial Master said.

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiu remained silent.

Zhou Wushang said, "Is it your understanding of the Heavenly Dao itself? He thinks that it is human evil thoughts that affect the Heavenly Dao, and that as long as they are removed, the chaos can be rectified. But he forgets that the Heavenly Dao itself is also a kind of being. It can give birth to its own thoughts, thus forming its own will that cannot be removed!"

Zhang Zhiwei nodded.

"I don't know whether the will of Heaven itself is good or evil, but Junior Brother Huaiyi's actions are undoubtedly a high-stakes gamble! If he fails, Heaven will change from being unable to interfere with all living beings to being able to truly come into this world and appear before people through the Eight Extraordinary Techniques!"

That would be terrible.

This is equivalent to the fact that a person cannot directly deal with the bacteria in their own body, so the Way of Heaven is harmless to ordinary people.

But what if that person's consciousness could attach itself to certain microorganisms and control their actions?

That would really be out of control!

"So, if you want to seal the secret of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques leading to immortality, it would be best to let Zhang Chulan inherit the Celestial Master's Degree. Then, under the suppression of the Celestial Master, he will never be able to master the Qi Body Source Flow, right?" Chu Xiu said.

The old celestial master nodded upon hearing this.

He added, "The reason you are chosen to inherit the Celestial Master's Degree is the same! Someone as powerful as you may be able to resist the temptation of becoming an immortal, but can you resist the temptation of taking over the Heavenly Dao and truly controlling this world?"

It turns out that what the old master was really worried about was that Chu Xiu had other ideas.

That is to inject one's own consciousness into the Heavenly Dao through the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, and replace the Heavenly Dao with one's own consciousness—if successful, all will be well; if unsuccessful, the Heavenly Dao will be further strengthened because of Chu Xiu's power.

By then, the trouble caused will be no less than if Zhang Huaiyi had lost the bet.

"Besides, those who didn't know the truth, like Lao Wang and Lao Lü, all thought that the Eight Extraordinary Techniques could lead to immortality, and they desperately tried to obtain them." The old Celestial Master said, "Even Lao Lu considered using the Heavenly Scroll to extend the immortal path for the Reverse Life Triple Realm, in order to make up for the regret that the Sanyi Sect could not reach the heavens!"

Once this spreads, it becomes extremely difficult to manage.

Even if we were to summon a "divine master," it probably wouldn't be able to suppress it!

"This is the whole truth!" The old Celestial Master looked at Chu Xiu and said earnestly, "You are an immortal. If you can inherit the Celestial Master's Degree, you may even have the opportunity to fully inherit the power of the Celestial Master without disturbing the Heavenly Dao, and become a true god!"

The meaning is quite clear. They hope Chu Xiu will give up and stop trying to seize any divine mandate.

The risk is too great.

Why not inherit the power of the Celestial Masters of past generations and become a "god" among men, thus becoming invincible in the world? Why take such a risk?
However, Chu Xiu shook his head upon hearing this.

"Guess why Heaven is so relentlessly pursuing me, bringing divine punishment upon me, determined to kill me?"

Zhang Zhiwei was puzzled.

"Why?"

"Because I already hold the 'Heavenly Dao' of two worlds in my hands!" Chu Xiu said, "You are helpless against it, but that doesn't mean I am helpless as well. I just don't want to pay the price, and I want to control it, making this world my third world. Otherwise, if I were to exert all my strength, I could completely destroy the Heavenly Dao here, and even this world!"

There are limits to the number of copies.

In terms of geography, the Three Kingdoms, Tianlong, and the Strange People are all Earth, and also the starry universe.

But it's actually not that big.

The areas outside Earth, or more precisely, the areas outside the plot, are all in a "blank" state, existing in a state between illusion and reality.

It can also be called "chaos"!
Simply put, Chu Xiu only needs to destroy everything related to the plot to destroy the world of one person.

The Heavenly Way in a one-person world is not "Heaven" in the broad sense, but rather tends to be "the will of the Earth".

Therefore, his relationship with the Heavenly Dao is that he is a fierce tiger, while the Heavenly Dao is a sheep!

That divine retribution, in essence, is the struggle of the prey.

Fearful and helpless!

"I think I've underestimated you by a large margin?" Zhang Zhiwei said.

"I also greatly underestimated you. Whether it's your normal strength or the trump cards you hold, you can cause me considerable trouble." Chu Xiu said, looking at Zhang Zhiwei, and then asked, "Will you fight me?"

Upon hearing this, the old master also looked at him.

Neither of them spoke for a long time.

At this moment, Zhang Chulan could clearly sense that the two were in a state of imminent conflict, where the next second could see a cataclysmic battle.

They both exuded murderous intent.

The old master has already realized that Chu Xiu is not an alien, nor even a person from this world. He is the true "Heavenly Demon," an existence who holds two worlds in his hands!
If he were to control the Heavenly Way in this world, then the life and death of all living beings would be decided by him alone.

This is definitely an invasion by extraterrestrial demons!
As the strongest in the land, he also shoulders the responsibility of protecting the world and slaying enemies from beyond the realm!
Therefore, he hesitated whether to take action.

He had absolutely no confidence!
As for Chu Xiu, although he once liked "One Person" very much and also liked the character of the Old Celestial Master, he would not show any mercy if the other party chose to take action!

There are too many variables.

With him around, obtaining the Mark of the Gods won't be so easy!
"Alas, how bad can this world get?" Suddenly, the old master seemed to age considerably in an instant, withdrawing all his power.

He shook his head, turned around, and left.

In the end, they didn't take any action.

It wasn't that he didn't want to stop Chu Xiu, but rather that his own "Heavenly Dao" had already turned evil, and he couldn't afford to fight Chu Xiu to the death any longer. Otherwise, once the power of the Celestial Master was exhausted, and the Heavenly Dao was no longer bound by its shackles, this world would perish.

"But don't go too far, or the 'Celestial Master' will still come down the mountain!"

This is both a warning and an announcement.

The Celestial Master is not entirely under Zhang Zhiwei's control; in fact, he restricts him. In certain extreme situations, he may break away from Zhang Zhiwei and act independently.

"You'd better mind your own business!" Chu Xiu said.

Even a deity or celestial master might not be without problems; the feeling he got from the Celestial Master's ordination was always a bit strange.

Then, Chu Xiu got up to leave.

But just then, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Someone has fainted here!"

"Why is she bleeding from all seven orifices? Can someone call an ambulance?"

"They're all dead!"

"Something's wrong! Someone's dead!"

The commotion caught Chu Xiu's attention. He turned around and saw a young man's "soul" floating around.

It was actually the king.

He looked regretful and said with annoyance, "I only glanced at him in the crowd, how could the backlash be so deadly? What secrets was that person hiding?"
