Chapter 1128: The Xianmen Has Given Birth to a Void Refinement Cultivator (This Segment Will Be Finished Today)

Within the Lei Gao Jie, a chaotic electromagnetic world was taking shape.

Countless chaotic runes, Maxwell's equations, Coulomb's law formula, Gauss's law formula, Ampère's circuital law formula, Faraday's law of magnetic induction formula... the crystallized wisdom of countless sages in their exploration of electromagnetism—one of the four fundamental forces of physics—flickered and drifted.

This chaotic electromagnetic world was expanding—from one kilometer, two kilometers, three kilometers... all the way to the threshold of nine kilometers, before slowly coming to a halt.

"It's not ninety percent."

"It's a hundred percent."

Zhenjun Shenji Canghai Tianjun let out a breath of relief and introduced to the surrounding Tianjuns: "No great misfortune appeared, no major accidents occurred—same as his usual luck, perfectly ordinary, neither good nor bad."

"Look at that Void Refinement space."

He pointed at the world taking shape, where electromagnetism gave birth to all manner of plants: "It's nine kilometers in size, already reaching the average level of Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong's great powers—quite decent."

"In various scriptures, 9.9999... kilometers is the limit of a Void Refinement cultivator's soul-refined Void Refinement space."

"The nines after this decimal point are infinite."

"The Great Sun Sword Pavilion's Dao Merging scriptures record that the further it expands, the more nines after the decimal point, the greater the potential—representing a certain limit, the limit of one's development of one's own soul and body. The closer one is to this limit, the greater the hope of advancing to Dao Merging. This is related to certain rules of the world."

"It seems that the closer the Void Refinement space is to the limit, the more it resembles the real world, the more it resembles the Heavenly Dao, and thus the difficulty of Dao Merging decreases."

"This is why the Great Sun Sword Pavilion disdains cultivating ordinary Void Refinement cultivators."

"So that's how it is."

Everyone listened carefully to this precious, foundational-level knowledge of the Xianzong.

From time to time, they looked at that electromagnetic world in the starry sky.

Many chaotic runes and formulas gradually faded away; countless currents and magnetic fields converged, transforming into trees, flowers and grasses, rivers, mountains and lands, clouds... a vivid Xian Dao Shi Gao Jie, a Xian Dao ecosystem was taking shape, and the power of electromagnetic rules was being born within it.

The Xianmen's fleet of hundreds of millions waited patiently.

Several years passed. The dark clouds and Lei Gao Jie in the starry sky dispersed, and the countless electromagnetic runes spread across the starry sky also gradually faded, revealing a kindly-looking old man in a blue robe within.

His aura could not yet be restrained and was extremely terrifying, emanating the unique, dreadful might of a Void Refinement being. Groups of Soul Transformation cultivators would suffocate before it, compelled to submit, unable to summon any will to resist.

Clang!

Jiang Ding held his breath, the sword intent within his soul humming softly.

Cang Hai Canghai Tianjun, Mieri Canghai Tianjun, and other Xianmen Tianjuns also felt a slight chill in their hearts. Something dreadful and helpless was brewing, instantly spreading across the entire Xianmen fleet of hundreds of millions, every corner of the military

formation spanning hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

"Fatty!"

"Once you've finished advancing, hurry back!"

Zhenjun Shenji Canghai Tianjun broke the silence, scolding with a laugh.

Few people knew that in his distant youth he had always been a chubby, fat appearance—this matter had long been buried in distant times, known only to a handful of people.

"Oh, oh oh oh!"

The old man in the blue robe, as if suddenly realizing, walked toward the Xianmen's military formation.

"Sorry, couldn't control it for a moment."

Yuan apologized from afar: "The previous concerns were correct. After advancing to Void Refinement, my divine sense reaction speed and magic power response speed have increased by more than tenfold. Looking at you all, it's like looking at living beings walking and moving in slow motion, and a sense of looking down upon ants arises in my heart."

"Like beings separated by two dimensions."

He spoke openly and honestly, telling the citizens about his current transformation.

The surrounding Tianjuns showed solemn expressions.

"Can you control it?"

Zhenjun Shenji Canghai Tianjun asked.

"Yes, at least for now there's no problem at all."

"After so many years of cultivating the Dao heart, it wouldn't go wrong the moment I advance."

Yuan nodded: "The only thing to worry about is that my mindset has already undergone a slight change. As the saying goes, 'when one holds a sharp blade, the urge to kill arises of its own.' Although the emotions in my heart are still very subtle, I still caught them—indeed, in my instinctive subconscious, I am calculating the possibility of subverting the Xianmen."

"This is the evil of human nature; I cannot avoid it."

He did not consider himself a saint of noble morality, free of desire, believing only that he too was an ordinary person—with evil and good in his heart, constantly changing.

"This is normal!"

Mieri Canghai Tianjun, a great stone lifted from his heart, laughed: "To tell you the truth, sometimes I also think about having all the beauties of the world for myself, and sometimes I dream about it too."

"No, no, you little brat don't understand."

Yuan shook his head: "It's fine for you to think about it. The Xianmen's system binds you. As long as you think about the consequences, you'll restrain your instinctive desires. Humans are beings who often have all sorts of messy thoughts."

"I'm different."

"I genuinely have the delusional urge to act on it, and I have a certain ability to do so without suffering serious consequences."

"That's what's frustrating."

Yuan sighed.

The higher a cultivator advances, the harder it becomes for society to restrain the strong.

Searching across all the worlds and starry skies, they are all authoritarian political systems of the strongest at the pinnacle of the Xian Dao—various sects and families are all like this. This universally appearing phenomenon has its reasons.

However, being universal does not mean it is correct!

Undoubtedly, the system currently operating in the Xianmen

is far more efficient than the Xianzong system. This is the preciousness of the Xianmen's system that goes against human nature—it possesses extremely high productivity, and is the most fundamental reason the Xianmen later overtook all others.

"Sigh!"

The surrounding Tianjuns sighed.

This is an unsolvable, essential difficulty of human nature.

"There's no way around it..."

Jiang Ding saw this scene and felt a certain stirring in his heart.

Void Refinement, Soul Transformation, and Nascent Soul cultivators were discussing, dissecting their own hearts, openly exploring the evil within their human nature, acknowledging the evil within their human nature, and feeling troubled by it.

No matter what the final outcome was, he would never forget this scene.

"The evil within human nature also has many uses; it holds important significance for the survival of the human race."

"It cannot be entirely cast aside either. A person who has cast aside all evil is not a complete living being."

Yuan summarized: "Humans are just such cheap bones. Without restraints, without martial force to suppress them, if they aren't beaten half to death, they'll harbor wishful thinking, believe themselves to be number one under heaven, and grow arrogant beyond all bounds."

"Human conduct is just like this; it cannot be restrained by mere moral cultivation alone."

"This is why we need laws, need armies, need law enforcers."

"Therefore,"

Yuan looked toward the starry sky where immortal sects spanned hundreds of thousands of kilometers, an eager expression crossing his face: "Come beat me half to death, let me clearly understand that the sternness of the law does not mean that after advancing to Void Refinement one can act lawlessly, taking whatever one wants."

"Come!"

"Beat me half to death!"

Crackle…

The blue-robed elder's vast might surged upward; within tens of thousands of miles of starry sky, hundreds of millions of electromagnetic runes blossomed, the power of the magnetic rules spread in all directions, emanating a terrifying aura.
