Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill - Chapter 1030 - 59: The Future and the Little Hell (Part 2)
Chapter 1030: Chapter 59: The Future and the Little Hell (Part 2)
But now, there are no such restrictions.
So the Great Elder immediately continued:
“As everyone knows, our Yuntian Star is a planet and has always been exploring the existence of other civilizations. Just recently, a mysterious powerful figure found our Elders Council and gave us this Secret Technique while proposing a trade.”
“The content of the trade is very simple. Let the powerful ones of Yuntian Star use the Secret Technique. As long as that strong figure is satisfied, he will help us completely resolve the problem with the Evil Spirits, preventing Yuntian Star from being attacked by them again. And now, that powerful figure is very satisfied…”
His words made all the Guardians react.
He was not a fool.
“Is this a test ground, experimenting with the Secret Technique’s function on our Yuntian Star?”
Although the Great Elder did not explicitly say it, he hinted very clearly.
However, they did not object to this type of trade.
“The trade is a good one. If relying solely on ourselves, we couldn’t predict what the final outcome would be…”
“It seems the heavens haven’t abandoned our Yuntian Star, giving us this opportunity to completely exterminate the Evil Spirits.”
Almost all the Guardians believed that the visit of a foreign powerful figure was beneficial to them.
Some Guardians speculated internally whether the resentment was created by the powerful figure who wanted to experiment.
Of course, these thoughts were definitely not to be spoken aloud.
However, soon their speculations were brutally crushed.
Because the Great Elder announced shocking news: “Naturally, a trade, we also have compensation. The complete elimination of the threat of Evil Spirits is our reward, but that powerful figure gave us a choice.”
“Great Elder, what is the choice?” someone immediately asked.
“Rest assured, no matter what choice it is, it is beneficial to us. The first option would be to let all of us forget everything, returning Yuntian Star to thirty-eight years ago, where all the deceased would be resurrected. To put it simply, no one would know Evil Spirits ever appeared…”
Just the first choice caused a huge uproar.
Judging by the contents, they understood how strong the figure who provided the Secret Technique was.
Forgetting everything, resurrecting everyone, either was beyond their imagination.
“The Lifeless True Saint is indeed strong… worthy of the True Saint name!”
Although the Great Elder did not explicitly state, everyone believed that the powerful figure was undoubtedly the Lifeless True Saint.
Momentarily, their budding faith turned into even greater reverence.
Of course, no one spoke immediately; they waited for the second option.
“The second choice also entails the complete elimination of Evil Spirits, with all people resurrected, but without erasing memories…” The Great Elder slowly revealed the second choice.
For a moment, everyone present fell silent.
It seemed like no changes, but for Yuntian Star, a decision was indeed necessary.
No wonder the Elders had to convene a meeting.
The appearance of Evil Spirits on Yuntian Star spanned over thirty years, leaving only painful memories.
Even if the disaster of the Evil Spirits ended, it would leave a permanent psychological shadow.
It seemed forgetting would be the best choice.
But should it really be forgotten?
“No need to rush. This isn’t for us alone to decide. Let’s go back and gather public opinions; we have six months…”
…
Six months later, Wang Sheng received the decision of Yuntian Star.
“To keep the memories…” Wang Sheng smiled lightly, not expressing his thoughts, “Since it’s your choice, then I will fulfill it. Get ready!”
Yuntian Star made the decision, and after handling these matters, he could prepare to leave, ready for the next step.
Thereupon, on this day, the beings of Yuntian Star saw a giant shadow blotting out the sky.
Beneath the shadow, Yuntian Star seemed incredibly small, a mere plaything in the hands of such an existence.
Countless beings were overwhelmingly terrified.
Of course, some murmured to themselves: “Is this the Lifeless True Saint, what a magnificent figure…”
And Wang Sheng, watching Yuntian Star under his palm, directly activated his power.
“Annihilate!”
With a single word, all the Evil Spirits were instantly wiped out, and souls emerged.
The Guardians also discovered that the Evil Spirits residing within them had vanished.
Before they could regain their senses.
Wang Sheng activated the power of time.
“Time Retrospection!”
In an instant, the entire time of Yuntian Star began to rewind.
“No pressure!”
This was Wang Sheng’s first attempt at rewinding an entire planet’s time and reviving all life simultaneously.
Yet, the present was different from the past.
For him now, rewinding a planet was too simple.
In a blink of an eye, Yuntian Star had returned to its former appearance.
If not for the memories still existing, they would have doubted whether they had gone through those events.
“Is it over just like that?”
While everyone felt the unreality of it all.
A voice appeared.
[I am the Lifeless True Saint. Beings of Yuntian Star, you are fated with me, and I shall leave you with a chance. If, one day, you step into the starry skies, hopefully, we will meet again!]
These words were Wang Sheng’s last token left for Yuntian Star.
After all, he and Yuntian Star were fated.
To find such a planet in the boundless sea of stars and fulfill his purpose.
In the subsequent years, a Lifeless Sacred Land appeared on Yuntian Star.
The Sacred Land only worshiped the Lifeless True Saint.
Its sole goal was to step into the starry skies as soon as possible and meet the legendary Lifeless True Saint again.
As for Wang Sheng, who had already left, he seemed to feel something.
“The seeds I casually left behind still have days of blossoming and bearing fruit?”
He left behind opportunities with no other purpose.
But time seemed to remind him that barring any accidents, Yuntian Star might stand among the starry sky’s top powers in the future, a force to be reckoned with.
“I have not activated the Fate Skill, yet I have this feeling. It’s the power of time itself…”
Wang Sheng glanced at his cultivation progress bar.
He realized it had actually grown some.
“Stirring time can also enhance the comprehension of time… Indeed, time is the most mystical power.”
Of course, he also understood that being able to stir time meant Yuntian Star must become very powerful in the future.
Otherwise, this effect wouldn’t occur.
However, seeing it clearly remained beyond his current abilities.
“It’s truly strange, stirring time signals determination, but since it’s determined, why can’t I see it clearly?”
Wang Sheng knew perhaps this was the reason he could gain insights into time.
“Never mind, since it cannot be seen clearly at present, no need to dwell on it. The experiment succeeded, allowing the next step of the plan…”
The attempt on Yuntian Star was preparation for afterward.
In the half-year when Yuntian Star made a choice, he didn’t idle.
In an instant, he directly went to hell, or rather a small hell.
Hell, after advancing the Five Elements Fist, the Five Qi Chaoyuan advanced to Innate Qi, became a framework prepared for reincarnation.
Previously immature, thus always left in the old land.
The plan was to wait until having the ability to establish it initially before perfecting it.
Nonetheless, the appearance of resentment made him change his mind.
The essence of resentment is the soul.
When these souls appear with no place to settle, it formed immense resentment.
At this time, the capability of the Underworld was demonstrated.
According to some theories, the Underworld initially appeared to resolve the vast resentful souls between heaven and earth, giving all the resentful souls a place to belong, making heaven and earth more complete, and preventing the resentful souls from affecting the human world.
Since the emergence of resentment was inevitable, why not have his Underworld take up this responsibility?
Perhaps this was the reason he sensed a great opportunity after establishing the Underworld.
Once successfully established, it would solve the issue of resentment and afford chances.
Such a beneficial prospect was not to be missed.
Thus came his series of actions.
“Detaining souls with curses is feasible, but detained souls also need a place to reside. In fact, it fills the function of the Underworld. Let’s start with this small hell…”
The small hell wasn’t small in size.
Rather, it was an experimental field.
He spent half a year replicating according to the original underworld, now the task was to perfect it…
