there existed a terrifyingly powerful being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under such intimidation, the army of the Snow Mountain Holy Hall seemed divinely assisted, and there was little resistance in capturing cities and lands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In less than half a month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rule of the Divine Light Dynasty plummeted to its nadir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the army besieged the capital, Rorres realized the Divine Light Dynasty’s downfall was inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, while the Snow Mountain Holy Hall was sharpening its swords and sweeping across the world, Gu Qingyang was dealing with other matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above Qingming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A golden orb of light lingered in front of Gu Qingyang, and upon closer inspection, it revealed a figure with twelve wings within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was the Light Divine Envoy, shrunk countless times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After vanquishing the body of the Light Divine Envoy, Gu Qingyang did not completely obliterate it, instead seizing its Divine Soul to uncover other matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Memory Reading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qingyang effortlessly invaded the Light Divine Envoy’s Divine Soul, and all its memories unfolded in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Light Divine Realm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Supreme Deity!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twelve Main Gods!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A multitude of information spread, providing Gu Qingyang with a comprehensive understanding of the world where the Light Divine Envoy resided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Light Divine Realm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The waters of the starry sky are indeed unfathomable!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qingyang looked at the rapidly dissolving Divine Soul of the Light Divine Envoy, a smile at his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the envoy’s memories, he learned it originated from a place called the Light Divine Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therein.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Supreme God presided in the Light World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Supreme God was the Light God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beneath the Supreme God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Were the Twelve Main Gods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the starry sky’s hierarchy, each of the Twelve Main Gods was a ninth-level powerhouse, and Gu Qingyang suspected the Light God, superior to them, was at least at the pinnacle of ninth level, or possibly half-step to tenth level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beneath the Twelve Main Gods were one hundred and eight Divine Envoys, each at the eighth-level tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was exceedingly mighty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A being purported to be at the pinnacle of ninth level, quasi-immortal, alongside twelve ordinary ninth-level experts, and one hundred and eight eighth-level practitioners could compare to the strength of the Divine Eye Empire, a ruler of several galaxies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Light Divine Realm held such immense power, and its faith extended across numerous worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through controlling vast amounts of faith, the Light Divine Realm continuously bred many powerful Divine Spirits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were before, Gu Qingyang would not have been confident in opposing the Light Divine Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only saw endless followers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the Light Divine Envoy’s memories, Gu Qingyang also gleaned the unique cultivation methods of the Light Divine Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under normal circumstances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as a creature of the starry sky didn’t seek eternal life, they faced the limitation of lifespan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the lifespan ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only death awaited them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even quasi-immortal beings couldn’t wholly escape the threat of finite lifespan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Spirits of the Light Divine Realm were not like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Light Divine Realm possessed a Supreme Treasure called the Rebirth Pool, where any Divine Spirit nearing the end of its lifespan would enter for reincarnation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To this end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Supreme God, Light God, created a method to protect the Divine Soul, using Faith Power as a foundation to ensure the Divine Soul could preserve past life wisdom during reincarnation in the Rebirth Pool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thusly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once reincarnated successfully, one could awaken with past life memories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This enabled the Divine Spirits of the Light Divine Realm to achieve a sort of pseudo-immortality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, the Light Divine Envoy before Gu Qingyang had reincarnated from the Rebirth Pool over a dozen times, equating to surviving for tens of thousands of years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Daoist Taiyuan of the Taiyuan Realm with the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation Method offers a method akin to that of the Light Divine Realm in some sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the difference is that the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation Method has limitations; each reincarnation may not successfully awaken past life wisdom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If past life wisdom isn’t awakened, reincarnation fails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation can only reincarnate nine times; even achieving perfection doesn’t permit further reincarnation...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qingyang compared the reincarnation method of the Light Divine Realm with the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation Method, each having its merits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The former achieves pseudo-immortality, but each life must start anew; immortality doesn’t mean limitless power growth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Much like the Light Divine Envoy, though existing for tens of thousands of years, it enters the Rebirth Pool every few thousand years, resetting all past accumulations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the Envoy remains eighth-level even now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, consider the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation Method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Secret Technique was devised by Daoist Taiyuan in pursuit of becoming immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While it lacks the endless reincarnation of the Rebirth Pool, once perfection is reached, it aggregates the power accumulated from nine lives, reaching a new height.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, Gu Qingyang thought the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation Method couldn’t achieve immortality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The accumulation of nine lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should allow an ordinary Mahayana Stage practitioner to reach quasi-immortal status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since achieving ninth-level perfection with combat power equal to Immortals, Gu Qingyang re-evaluated the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation Method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If nine reincarnations equate to quasi-immortal levels each time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then upon the perfection of nine lives, the cumulative quasi-immortal prowess might catalyze a qualitative change, enabling practitioners to achieve alternative immortality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very least.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It might grant practitioners powers rivaling Immortals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two methods have their own advantages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon scrutiny, the latter is indeed more potent and advantageous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the so-called immortality of the Light Divine Realm is merely survival, unlike the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation Method, which allows practitioners to progress further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Divine Spirits of the Light Divine Realm achieve reincarnation and rebirth primarily through the Rebirth Pool; without such a Supreme Treasure, relying solely on the method devised by the Light God for alternative immortality would only be a pipe dream!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qingyang mused, then squeezed his fingers, causing the orb of light representing the Light Divine Envoy’s Divine Soul to dissipate completely.\u003C\u002Fp>",1162,"2026-06-03T14:34:36.668Z",1,"novelbin.me","247e3f71ccf63c269876fdc54c1c0f3847c857a7c7ec632119d077e89763cb6f","global-catastrophe-i-begin-to-evolve-from-an-anc-chapter-509","global-catastrophe-i-begin-to-evolve-from-an-anc-chapter-507",543,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-catastrophe-i-begin-to-evolve-from-an-anc-cover.jpg"]
