"My trip to the southwest was to collaborate with the Taoist priests of Qingcheng Mountain to use formations to cover the valleys, blocking the spying of surrounding countries and preventing us from being discovered."
"My God." Fang Qiao was stunned. She never expected such an unexpected turn of events.
"If the world has a rift that connects to another world, then could people from that other world come through this rift?"
Cheng Baidong once said that the cultivators in other worlds were almost driven mad in their pursuit of immortality, with no order or laws, believing in the survival of the fittest and regarding mortals as ants.
If such lawless people came to Earth through the rift in the world... wouldn't they turn the whole world upside down and cause chaos?
Fang Qiao's face turned pale with fright when she thought of this possibility.
If this speculation comes true, the consequences will be unimaginable.
“You don’t need to worry too much, this won’t happen for now,” Cheng Bodong explained. “The World Rift is very dangerous. The strong winds inside can tear a person’s soul apart. Even powerful beings in the Tribulation Transcending stage dare not set foot there easily.”
In his previous life, he had already reached the limit of his cultivation, while those of similar ability had long since died.
If he could shatter the void and return from the rift in the world, he wouldn't have been so desperate in his previous life that he would have willingly disintegrated, ending up dead and gone.
Even he dared not set foot in the void rift, let alone others.
But anything can happen, and Fang Qiao couldn't help but worry after hearing Cheng Baidong's explanation: "How long is 'temporarily'?"
"Under normal circumstances, it would take over a thousand years."
Over a thousand years!
That's all!
Hearing this, Fang Qiao finally felt relieved.
After all, she will have long since returned to dust after thousands of years, so there's no need to worry about something so far in the future.
Cheng Baidong said, "In that world... as far as I know, there are no more powerful beings above the Nascent Soul stage. Moreover, due to the severing of heavenly secrets and the reduction of spiritual energy, the upper limit of cultivation is getting lower and lower. It may enter the Dharma-ending Age in a few hundred years, and even the Golden Core stage will be difficult to cultivate."
Looking at the current situation, Cheng Baidong felt it was somewhat similar to the world fusion described in an ancient book he had once read.
Because it was so long ago, he couldn't remember the specific details, but he remembered that it seemed to say that the world was conscious and that when it was about to die, it would "save itself" by merging with lower planes that were inferior to it.
However, this fusion process is slow and lengthy, often taking thousands or tens of thousands of years from the moment the air begins to merge until both worlds are fully integrated.
The rift in the southwest is currently undergoing a process of air fusion.
The air on Earth has no spiritual energy, but the air in another world contains spiritual energy. Therefore, the result of this stage is that the spiritual energy of the other world overflows into this world from the crack.
Over time, the spiritual energy of the other world will gradually decrease until it disappears, while the spiritual energy of this world will increase.
The Taoist priests on Mount Qingcheng call it a spiritual revival, because they firmly believe that there were gods on Earth in ancient times. However, due to various reasons, the spiritual energy disappeared, but the Taoist tradition was still passed down.
The current revival of spiritual energy presents an opportunity for the Taoist tradition to flourish.
Cheng Baidong neither confirmed nor denied this.
He believes that the more he says, the more mistakes he makes, and he won't speak carelessly in front of outsiders without concrete evidence.
This is why he pretended to be out of spiritual energy.
The reason why a card is called a card is because it is special; once it is laid out on the table, it is no longer called a card.
Therefore, he can have cultivation, but he cannot be much stronger than others.
Human nature is unpredictable. Faced with the immense temptation of cultivating immortality and achieving longevity, it's hard to guarantee that no one will have wicked thoughts.
