Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1394 - 644: Origins of the True Spirit Clan, Ancient Secrets (2)
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
After all, countless cultivators study the True Spirit Clan, hoping to uncover the secrets they contain.
"In fact, the reason True Spirits created the True Spirit Clan is also for a particular reason."
"It’s not that they want to expand their forces, but for cultivation."
At this moment, the Human Emperor Sword spoke.
It is the true ancient relic of the Void Realm, having accompanied generations of Children of Destiny, and knows secrets far beyond the common cultivator.
"For cultivation? What exactly does this mean?"
Jiang Fan asked curiously.
"It’s as literal as it sounds."
"A large number of bloodline descendants can contribute power to the True Spirit."
"Even these descendants can provide the power of faith to assist the True Spirit in their cultivation."
"What’s even more terrifying is that if a True Spirit accidentally falls, as long as the bloodline descendants are not completely wiped out, the True Spirit can reincarnate through them and return."
"That’s why True Spirits are willing to establish clans."
"Otherwise, who would willingly do something that offers no benefits."
The Human Emperor Sword explained.
"No way, if that’s the case, as long as the bloodline descendants don’t die out, True Spirits are truly immortal entities?" Many magical treasures were shocked, never expecting such an astonishing secret to be hidden within the True Spirit Clan.
If this is truly the case, no wonder those True Spirit Clans are expanding crazily.
"You could say that."
"That’s why True Spirits not only leave True Spirit Clans in the Void Realm."
"Nor would they leave True Spirit bloodlines in other worlds."
"In this way, even if one world encounters problems, bloodline descendants from other worlds can survive."
"The most famous of these are naturally the True Dragons."
"The True Dragon clan has basically left descendants of the True Spirit bloodline in most worlds."
"This has also made True Dragons very difficult to eliminate."
The Human Emperor Sword explained.
"Indeed."
Many magical treasures were astounded.
They realized the terrifying aspect of this ability, being able to continuously rebirth through bloodline descendants.
From a certain perspective, this is already an eternal existence.
No wonder True Spirit bloodlines are so noble; how could ordinary bloodlines possess such abilities?
"In that sense, True Spirits are indeed quite formidable beings."
"But if they are truly so powerful, why did those True Spirit Clans nearly go extinct in the Ancient Era?"
The Exquisite Tower asked curiously.
It remembered clearly that during the Ancient Era, those flourishing True Spirit Clans suddenly perished entirely in a certain period, shaking the Void Realm and many factions along with it.
However, not many people know the true reason behind the extinction of the True Spirit Clans.
It seemed to contain a huge taboo.
"Families that use bloodlines to pass down inheritances are naturally very strong."
"But there is also a fatal weakness."
"That is a great fear of curses."
"Immortals in the Immortal Realm took action and cursed these True Spirits."
"And these terrifying curses spread through the power of the bloodline to many descendants."
"Any being possessing the same bloodline that cannot withstand the curse’s power will perish instantly."
"That’s why many True Spirit Clans disappeared overnight."
The Human Emperor Sword spoke dimly.
There is no truly immortal existence in this world, not even Immortals, nor Immortal Kings.
True Spirits’ ability to reincarnate through bloodline descendants is indeed very powerful.
But there are so many ways to kill True Spirits.
Perhaps in the mortal world, no means exists to kill True Spirits, but in the Immortal Realm, such means are everywhere.
To those great figures of the Immortal Realm, True Spirit bloodline reincarnation is just a bit more troublesome to deal with.
It’s not that they can’t be dealt with.
"Indeed."
The many magical treasures felt extremely shaken inside.
They never imagined that the extinction of numerous True Spirit Clans ended up being due to curses from great figures in the Immortal Realm.
If figures from the Immortal Realm personally took action, then True Spirits naturally could not resist.
After all, mortal cultivators are far inferior to beings in the Immortal Realm.
It’s practically a different dimension of beings.
The divine means mastered by both sides are entirely different.
It’s like ants can’t imagine human capabilities; this goes beyond the range of ant imagination.
"But didn’t the ancient Kunpeng say before that the True Spirits have already snuck into the Immortal Realm?"
The Primordial Talisman Pen asked curiously.
It now recalled its encounter with the father of the Little Kunpeng earlier, who according to him had long since crossed from the Void Realm to the Immortal Realm, implying that a fairly significant number of True Spirits had survived.
It’s just that they are not in the mortal world but have ascended to the Immortal Realm.
"Those True Spirits who managed to sneak into the Immortal Realm are only a small part."
"The reason they thought about sneaking into the Immortal Realm is because the extinction of massive True Spirit Clans thoroughly frightened them."
"True Spirits know if they remain in the mortal world, they will all be hunted and killed sooner or later."
"Only by making it to the Immortal Realm can they gain stronger power and obtain the strength to resist."
"Otherwise, it would be a path leading to certain death."
The Human Emperor Pen said quietly.
These were previously secretive news, and it didn’t wish to reveal them carelessly.
But now Jiang Fan’s cultivation has reached the Tier Eight level, equivalent to a Mahayana Cultivator.
And his real cultivation is almost a step away from Mahayana.
Thus, he has begun to qualify to know these ancient hidden messages.
Even knowing this information provides more motivation for cultivation.
"Is that so?"
"No wonder those True Spirits that stuck in the mortal world chose to sneak into the Immortal Realm one after another."
The Primordial Talisman Pen and other magical treasures had a sudden realization.
They remembered clearly that all those True Spirits had exceptionally long lifespans, living for millions, even tens of millions of years, incredibly longer than ordinary Mahayana Cultivators’ lifespans.
Originally, according to their cultivation, ascending to the Immortal Realm was a given.
But among certain ancient True Spirits, although they possessed strength comparable to Immortals, they absolutely refused to ascend.
Because they knew that based on their strength, they could dominate in the mortal world, but once they reached the Immortal Realm, they might just become mounts for those great figures.
So unless their lifespans were about to be exhausted, those ancient True Spirits refused to ascend to the Immortal Realm.
This also left many True Spirits in the Void Realm during the Ancient Era.
Even though the Taixu Sect was the absolute ruler of the Void Realm back then, it couldn’t unite the entire Great Thousand Worlds.
There were simply too many ancient beings.
"Master, do you plan to create your own True Spirit Clan?"
The Human Emperor Pen asked curiously, looking at Jiang Fan, wanting to know his thoughts.
"According to what you say, the emergence of a True Spirit Clan indeed has immense benefits for True Spirits."
"But from a certain perspective, this actually leaves many flaws for True Spirits."
"Enemies can curse through the bloodline descendants and trace back to the source."
"So it’s better not to rashly establish a True Spirit Clan."
Jiang Fan said sternly.
He realized the advantages and disadvantages of creating a True Spirit Clan.
If it were a peaceful period, then founding a True Spirit Clan would indeed offer great benefits.
Moreover, his bloodline descendants would surely be loyal to him.
But now it’s different.
The Longevity Tribulation hangs over his head.
Enemies were able to kill many True Spirit Clans from the Void Realm’s Ancient Era, and they could certainly kill current True Spirit Clans. If no way is found to counter this, it’s purely creating a flaw for enemies to kill him.
Of course, this doesn’t mean he doesn’t intend to have descendants, just that there’s no need for his bloodline descendants to be everywhere.
"Indeed, in the current era, creating a True Spirit Clan would be more harmful than beneficial."
"And there is no time for it right now."
"A massive disaster is sweeping over, leaving no time to develop a True Spirit Clan."
The Human Emperor Sword agreed on this point.
For a clan to grow and prosper, it would require a significant amount of time and cultivation resources.
Currently, a terrifying disaster is sweeping across the entire mortal world.
Not only is the Void Realm experiencing disaster, but many Great Thousand Worlds are as well.
"Let’s go back for now."
Jiang Fan looked around, not intending to stay here any longer.
He came here just to test the bloodline divine techniques he possessed.
The effect seemed quite favorable, much to his satisfaction.
This also added a valuable hand to his arsenal.
Whoosh!
At this time, Jiang Fan returned to the Quiet Chamber of the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall through the Gate of the Void.
