Chapter 2544: The Angel Investment of the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang
Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's gaze was deep and unfathomable, unknown what he was thinking.
Child of fortune?
Having traveled this far, he had seen too much, felt no awe about it, just like many mortal cultivators who believed that a destined being carrying great fortune would surely achieve astonishing feats in the future.
This view is wrong.
The fortune-true-dragon son who once contended with him for the Dao opportunity was a child of fortune; that era was actually one of great prosperity in innate metal fortune, especially suitable for the birth and growth of many metal-race heavenly treasures and earthly riches, metal cultivation methods and secret arts, and beings walking the innate metal great Dao, especially true immortals, were children of fortune in harmony with the great trend of heaven and earth.
Then what?
However, so it is.
In Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's view, the fortune-true-dragon son was not stronger than other true immortals by much; the so-called child of fortune was just like that.
Fortune is the great trend of heaven and earth, just as water always flows downward; if you can grasp this great trend and its regularity, go with the trend, row your boat with the fortune-river current downstream, you will gain a powerful assist out of nowhere, your travel speed far exceeding that of someone walking on the shore.
Then, to the person on the shore, you appear as a child of fortune.
Otherwise, it would be completely inexplicable how you could move so fast, your speed several or even ten times that of land people, utterly inconceivable, astonishing and hard to understand, leading to your deification, being called a child of fortune, believed to be favored by heaven, destined to become a great figure in the future.
Actually?
In the eyes of many beings who have penetrated falsehood and reached essence, heavenly Dao fortune does not favor anyone; only those who respect the cosmic laws of the immortal Dao, utilize those laws, and grasp the trend of the times.
Among these people, some are innately dull-witted; among billions of beings, by sheer coincidence, one person's every word and action naturally aligns with the great trend; others are not naturally aligned but possess astonishing wisdom, have seen the great trend of heaven and earth, the rushing waters, and actively change themselves and transform nature to draw close to the trend, artificially making themselves children of fortune.
Even more terrifying beings completely ignore the great trend of heaven and earth, go against heaven, and artificially create a heavenly-earthly trend that submerges everything!
Basically, all forbidden-zone ancient emperors are such existences.
For example, Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang, who artificially created the great Dao trend of the Dharma-ending era of that time, forcibly pushed Wu Jin Kong Kong from a barren land into a silver age of prosperity, completely contrary to the regular laws of the immortal Dao cosmos; that era should have been barren, lacking strong cultivators, with all immortal Dao endeavors withering away.
This is why forbidden-zone ancient emperors disregard children of fortune: they can artificially create heavenly-earthly trends, making those who follow prosper, become children of fortune, and advance greatly in the immortal Dao.
Those who go against it are opposing the heavenly-earthly trend, and thus perish!
"This is a human-race child of fortune————"
"On him likely rests one ten-thousandth of the human-race fortune invested in this era."
Jiang Ding silently calculated.
Fortune, coincidence, and great trend.
This resolute youth possesses such fortune, so he will surely endure countless hardships and trials, survive numerous perilous situations, and after surviving danger, likely gain opportunities—this is the human-race heavenly Dao's favor toward him: effort brings reward.
But it is not predestined, for if he dies, he dies, and the human-race heavenly Dao will not do more because of it.
The human-race heavenly Dao, like all human-race ancient emperors, is indifferent, cunning, and cruel, and will not truly favor a being; there is no possibility of warmth like a father or mother caring for a person.
Rather, it favors a batch of human-race beings.
Only the one who ultimately survives is the human-race child of fortune of this era.
"On him, the favor of heavenly Dao fortune is one in ten billion.
1
"Indeed, it is the foundation of an unparalleled heavenly pride."
Jiang Ding gave a light praise.
The heavenly Dao fortune favor of one in ten billion in the golden great age is indeed a very commendable advantage, meaning this resolute youth, whether consciously or not, subtly aligns with the great trend of heaven and earth, thus gaining so many opportunities and enduring so many killing traps.
This is only natural; since ancient times, anything good has been guarded by people.
Ownerless opportunities are far too few.
"So,"
"Should I invest in him?"
Jiang Ding thought lightly.
In the Tai Shang Da Ri immortal Dao system, there are many Dharma-ending Dao techniques simulating cause-and-effect Dao; receiving Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's opportunity, especially when weak, requires future repayment.
Even if one becomes a forbidden-zone ancient emperor in the future, repayment is still required!
This cause-effect immortal technique requires mutual consent, voluntary acceptance, binding the Dao heart, with great binding force.
Of course, in this situation, if one's cause-effect immortal technique is deciphered by another, skill inferior, all efforts come to nothing, then one must similarly accept defeat, with nothing to say.
This is a trillion-profit matter.
The only drawback is high investment threshold and extremely great investment risk.
In the Great Day forbidden zone, the resolute youth named Ye Xian holds a broken token, walking through this land where every step is a killing trap.
Even with treasure protection, he has paid a heavy price.
A sword scar cut into his neck, bones stark white, nearly beheading him; left shoulder and both legs severed at the knees, bone splinters piercing the soil, a sight that shocks the eye and makes the teeth ache.
Even so, he remains calm, holds his breath, avoids layer after layer of killing formations, and approaches the opportunity at the center.
"That token?"
"Seems like the commander's token of Senior Mie Ri?"
"This old senior just likes to play with these flashy classical things, like a great general in TV dramas, unexpected that it survived to the golden great age, truly not easy."
Jiang Ding let out a light sigh.
How many ages have passed, when all the people of that time have vanished, when all the steel-reinforced concrete, all formations, all artificial objects and buildings on the mother star have turned to dust, a tiny token has actually remained until now, truly unknown what wondrous journey it has undergone.
At this moment, the appearance and smile of Senior Mie Ri appear in Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's eyes.
Yellow hair, that kind of yellow-with-black hair, face pale and hair green, wearing torn denim pants, walking with a jingling sound all over, a malnourished look, is an especially righteous old senior.
Many years ago, this old senior, after reaching the peak of his cultivation, had his lifespan exhausted and thus passed away.
The citizens of that era now only remain as Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang and the sleeping distant two; no one else remains, only memories.
Now, a human-race youth, and moreover carrying one in eighteen billion nine hundred million of the immortal gate citizen bloodline, brings Senior Mie Ri's commander's token before him.
This person, in the extremely distant past, had a citizen ancestor.
Although he is not a citizen.
"Here you go, kid."
"Take my angel wheel investment, go to the Golden Great Age and fight the heaven's pride of all races, victory or defeat, honor or disgrace, no regrets in a life of cultivation."
Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang said lightly.
