I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 3144: The Choice

Chapter 3144: Chapter 1493: The Choice

The gigantic Dharma Aspect of the Taixu True King stood tall amidst the chaos, recounting the millennia of toil since the blooming of the Annihilation Red Lotus.

He had contemplated various methods to address the ever-spreading Destruction Tribulation, but they only barely managed to delay it.

Through years of observation and deduction, he understood that only by fulfilling its mission from the source could the tribulation be put to rest.

And the source of this Destruction Tribulation was Gui Ling’s attempt to prove the Primordial in the Annihilation Tribulation.

Therefore, the Taixu True King needed to recreate that scenario.

Either Gui Ling successfully proves the Primordial and overcomes the Annihilation Tribulation.

Or Gui Ling fails, is annihilated by the tribulation, and upon realizing that Gui Ling’s soul and True Spirit are extinguished during the process, the tribulation will naturally dissipate, reverting to the yet-to-bloom Annihilation Red Lotus, waiting to erupt again at the universe’s end.

For the Taixu True King, he naturally hoped for the latter outcome.

After all, if Gui Ling proved the Primordial, she would certainly not spare him.

But regardless, today the major threat of the Destruction Tribulation to the Purple Cloud Universe could surely be resolved.

Matters thereafter could be dealt with later.

Thinking of this, the Taixu True King fully opened the Gate of Taixu he held on his Dharma Aspect.

Accompanied by a thunderous roar, the Annihilation Black Hole, originally suppressed by the Purple Cloud Palace and the Eighth Rank Array at the Mystic Palace, found an outlet. Sensing Gui Ling’s aura of imminent annihilation, it transformed into a vast apocalyptic torrent, carrying the power to dissolve and erase all, rushing toward the point where Gui Ling had transformed.

And the Primordial realm devours everything, annihilation included.

In an instant, Gui Ling sensed her own Great Tao, thoughts, and even memories beginning to dissipate in the torrent.

Her entire existence began to vanish under the Destruction Tribulation.

As it seemed she would utterly fail and succumb to annihilation, a brilliant Immortal Light suddenly shone from the singularity, like a Divine Sword creating heaven and earth, cleaving through the void.

Gui Ling’s form emerged from the void singularity, her eyes wide open, staring intently at the Taixu True King before her, her entire body seemingly on the verge of completely dissipating.

“Senior Sister Tianhai’s Creation Power?” The Taixu True King, however, ignored Gui Ling’s gaze filled with killing intent, and after sensing her current state, nodded in realization, “You forcibly halted your process of proving the Primordial with the Tianhe Dao Fruit. But it’s futile, Junior Sister; this time, even if I don’t seal you, this Destruction Tribulation will hunt you down to every corner of chaos, erasing all your spiritual essence before it dissipates.”

“Damn it, just half a step away!” Gui Ling felt deeply unwilling. If not for the Destruction Tribulation delivered by the Taixu True King, she would have had a seventy percent chance to condense the Primordial Dao Fruit and step into the Ninth Rank.

“Junior Sister, although just half a step, it’s an insurmountable chasm for you in this lifetime. The moment you realized you couldn’t overcome annihilation and cut your Cultivation Level and retreated, it indicated your lack of a Primordial Dao Heart. Even without this tribulation, you would have dispersed at the moment of the Primordial Dao Fruit’s condensation.” The Taixu True King shook his head, expressing his viewpoint.

To be frank, the Taixu True King was quite disappointed with Gui Ling’s choice.

After all, at his level of cultivation, the Ninth Rank was the sole pursuit.

Though the Primordial and Creation followed different paths, they were both parts of eternity, and he still somewhat desired to witness the birth of the Primordial firsthand.

But at least the Destruction Tribulation could be resolved.

Thinking of having protected the universe his Master had pioneered, the Taixu True King nodded in satisfaction.

Rumble!

And at this moment, because Gui Ling withdrew from the process of proving the Primordial, the halted Destruction Tribulation again locked onto her, erupting into a torrent that annihilates all, surging toward her.

Facing a crisis of life and death, the Tianhe Dao Fruit radiated brilliant Immortal Light, enveloping Gui Ling and confronting annihilation.

However, as time passed, the Dao Fruit, containing the power of Ninth Rank Creation, also began to dim.

The Taixu True King hadn’t lied; only by completely annihilating Gui Ling would the tribulation cease; even if Tianhai rushed from the chaos herself, it couldn’t prevent this outcome.

At that moment, a blue Spiritual Light flew from the depths of chaos, landing by the ear of the Taixu True King’s giant Dharma Aspect.

It was Chen Mobai, who rode on the Primordial Water Control Banner. Seeing the opened Gate of Taixu and Gui Ling struggling under the Destruction Tribulation, he realized, “Senior Brother, is this your plan?”

“Indeed, I am sorry you had to suffer, Junior Brother. Without the Saintly Virtue Great Dao you provided, Junior Sister Gui Ling wouldn’t have advanced to proving the Primordial so swiftly, and a portion of the merit for saving the universe and its beings goes to you.”

At this point, the Taixu True King had no need for concealment and disclosed the entire truth.

Chen Mobai: “So, it wasn’t Turtle Treasure that chose me, but you, Senior Brother, who chose me? But why me?”

If it was merely to deliver the Saintly Virtue Great Dao to Gui Ling, anyone could have done it.

“Junior Brother, I’ve never lied to you. I told you the truth the first time we met. Because you have the Void Spirit Body, you could touch the Turtle Shell. Initially, I planned to use you as a medium, sending the Turtle Shell to Junior Sister so she could enter the Three Realms, retracing the Primordial path, and resolve all problems.” Here, the Taixu True King paused, his gaze shifting to Gui Ling, filled with regret, “But a mysterious force has been preventing Junior Sister from obtaining the Turtle Shell, keeping her from her doomed path, leading to the current situation.”
