Ch. 294 - Power of True Fate

Xu Zimo stationed Chaos at the door, forbidding anyone from disturbing him.

Back in the room, he took out the Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe that he had previously obtained from the Celestial Sage.

“The Dao produces fifty, Heaven derives forty-nine.”

Apart from the one that is hidden, Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe can deduce all things in the world.

Though the star disk wasn’t that powerful, it excelled in calculation and deduction.

It was especially effective against formations.

Any formation that is recorded into this Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe would become powerless to trap the one holding it.

The Hexa-Genesis Immortal Formation was a formation Xu Zimo had always been cautious of.

The Formation Emperor of the past was indeed a peerless genius, once someone was trapped inside this formation, destroying it from the inside was nearly impossible.

Now with the Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe and the formation’s structure recorded within, if Xu Zimo were ever trapped by it, he could deduce a way out using the disk.

At this moment, spiritforce surged around Xu Zimo as he began slowly forming formation seals.

The Hexa-Genesis Immortal Formation required a massive number of seals.

In both his current and past life, Xu Zimo had never seriously studied formation-crafting.

Luckily, to record a formation in the Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe, all that was needed was the core operational route and a sufficient number of formation seals, not the actual construction of a working formation.

Otherwise, it would have taken Xu Zimo even more time to learn formation techniques.

Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

He completed the countless seals and, along with the formation’s core route, merged them into the Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe.

With a loud boom, brilliant light radiated from the star disk.

A starry sky unfolded above him. Bright starlight filled the room.

The sky sparkled with countless stars, the Milky Way hung upside-down, and the occasional shooting star zipped across the heavens.

A deep blue cosmic sky formed the backdrop.

Countless stars linked together.

The Hexa-Genesis Immortal Formation was vast and complex. Even the Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe struggled to simulate and deduce it.

Finally, after a long time, the simulated starry sky broke apart and reconstructed itself repeatedly.

Eventually, it stabilized and was fully absorbed into the Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe.

From now on, Xu Zimo no longer needed to worry about encountering the Hexa-Genesis Immortal Formation.

He let out a deep sigh of relief.

Days of condensing formation seals had worn him out.

He stored the star disk into his storage ring, then retrieved a fragment of a broken sword, Bluesoul’s true form, a shard of the True God Sword.

Her body was part of the sword’s spine.

Typically, a sword consists of two parts: the blade and the hilt.

The blade includes the edge, tip, and spine, while the hilt consists of the guard and tang.

Most swords also have a pommel, often called a tassel, but its function is minor.

Now, the sword spine fragment in Xu Zimo’s hand was covered in cracks, it looked like a decayed, unopened, worthless blade.

No one would believe this broken spine once split the heavens and sundered eras.

Someone had once used it to carve open an entire epoch.

In every age, a few rise above the rest, leaving behind epic legends in the heavens.

People revere them for their past glories and the incredible tales left behind.

Some even long to have lived in the same era, to witness the birth of legends firsthand.

……

Inside the True Fate World, the hundred baby dragons birthed by the Dragon Tree had opened their eyes.

They began to grow by feeding on the fruits produced by the tree.

Each dragon’s first fruit determined their elemental affinity.

For example, if a dragon’s first fruit was fire-elemental, they could only consume fire-based fruits from then on, no other elemental types.

Xu Zimo’s True Fate World was like a real, self-sustaining world.

It constantly fed him power.

The stronger the world became, the more strength Xu Zimo could draw from it.

And how to make the world stronger?

That depended on expansion and the natural development of its ecosystem.

Plants, animals, humans…

With clear seasons, fresh air, flowing rivers, forests, and stable landscapes, this formed a complete ecological environment.

Everything within built and enriched the world.

If one day, resources were depleted or endlessly consumed, and animals started going extinct,

On a small scale, it’s just species loss.

On a larger scale, it’s a devastating blow to the entire world.

If that continued, the world would eventually collapse and self-destruct.

Every person, every tree, every drop of water, each was vital to strengthening the world.

They were crucial links in the ecological chain.

This was why Xu Zimo wanted to fuse Supreme-Yin Nether-Glow and Supreme-Yang Solar-Illumination (the lunar and solar essences).

The birth of the hundred Dragon Gods had become part of the God World, making the world more complete and powerful.

As for the nine ancient God Beasts, Chaos’ kin, they were nearly ready to be born as well.

Xu Zimo didn’t interfere.

Though he was the creator god of this world, all things must follow their natural path.

Unless absolutely necessary, he wouldn’t intervene in the evolution of his world.

If any being disrupted that evolution, they would be punished by Heaven’s Will, that was the purpose of the Heavenly Dao.

……

Leaving the room, Xu Zimo bid farewell to Mo Canghai.

He had done what needed to be done, and after a few days of rest in the Mo Imperial Clan, it was time to return to the True Martial Sacred Ground.

By now, Sacred Lord Xiao had returned, and Xu Zimo was curious about the current state of the sect.

After saying goodbye, Xu Zimo mounted the Darksky Tiger (also known as Situ Guodan) and headed west.

……

This world was home to countless races, three thousand clans, each with their own strengths.

Many races had existed since ancient times.

The Human Race had once risen to prominence thanks to Grand Emperor Zhen Wu, who founded the Imperial Era.

But there were also races that chose not to confront the Human Race at its peak. They avoided conflict and went into seclusion.

One such race was the Dao Race.

No one knew where their main base was. In this era, few members of the Dao Race were still active in the world.

Within an unknown barrier in the Infinite Void, there existed a highly secretive world.

Most of the Dao Race resided there.

Today, the entire Dao Race was celebrating, the atmosphere was festive and lively.

Because today was the 15th birthday of Dao Tianyun, the Dao Sovereign’s son.

More importantly, now that he had turned fifteen, Dao Tianyun could officially begin his cultivation journey.
