“The two parties conspired secretly and made a dirty deal.”
“Our Changguangqu Island will use extraterrestrial secret techniques and core Dao foundations as bargaining chips to allow the Haotian Divine Clan to open the passage between the heavens, attack the lower heavens, plunder orthodox spiritual resources and ancient secret realm materials, and make up for the eternal shortcomings of our own star field.”
“The first target they chose for invasion was Twenty-second Heaven, which was rich in resources but had weak defenses.”
“The battle was so fierce that the heavens and the earth were shattered into pieces, and the sun and moon lost their light. The cultivators from my star field crossed over to plunder the spiritual resources and slaughter the cultivators who resisted.”
The beings of the twenty-two heavens fought tooth and nail, fighting to the end, refusing to give up an inch of ground, using their flesh and blood to block the invasion from beyond the realms. Many lives were lost, the fighting was fierce.
“In the end, although my star region plundered a large amount of rare orthodox resources, it also suffered heavy casualties and its foundation was seriously damaged. It was unable to continue the war and could only hastily order the entire army to retreat and return to Changguangqu Island.”
At that moment, his eyes were filled with guilt, humiliation, and anger, and his voice was low and hoarse: “From the beginning, I vehemently opposed this war of aggression.”
“It is right for us to seek life and develop the Dao. But slaughtering innocent people, plundering the heavens, and carrying out endless killings is absolutely not the right path.”
I repeatedly tried to persuade the higher-ups, but to no avail, and could only watch helplessly as countless cultivators from all realms perished. My heart was filled with unbearable guilt. When the time came to step down, I felt like withdrawing and refusing to return to my homeland with my people.
“But my good intentions and unwillingness to compromise my principles have led to the betrayal and abandonment of my own people.”
“The higher-ups regard me as a traitor, an outsider, and an internal threat. They are afraid that I will leak the secrets of the star field and collude with cultivators from all over the sky, even during the retreat.”
Taking advantage of my unpreparedness, they forcibly pushed me into a chaotic and turbulent vortex of nothingness, leaving me in the endless void to fend for myself.
“The fissure vortex in the sky devours everything, destroys the stars, and exterminates souls; it is the most dangerous and calamitous place in the sky.”
“I was alone, without any help or support, and wandered in the cracks of the void for several days, enduring the endless tearing of space, the erosion of black mist from beyond the realm, and the strangulation of turbulent currents. My physical body was destroyed, my soul was damaged, and the foundation of my cultivation collapsed. I was on the verge of death.”
In the end, by sheer luck, he was thrown by the chaotic currents of the void and, by some twist of fate, fell into this 23rd heaven.
“From then on, I wandered alone in the heavens and the earth, enduring a thousand years of wandering, a thousand years of forbearance, and a thousand years of solitude.”
He stared at the cloth bag in his hand filled with low-quality nuclear debris, his eyes filled with helplessness and exhaustion: “In this world, I am no longer able to absorb orthodox spiritual energy. Dao bloodlines are incompatible and meridians are incongruent. Forcibly absorbing it will only destroy my Dao foundation and cause me to explode and die.”
This inferior nuclear fragment, hated by the entire heavens, is the only cultivation resource that I can cultivate, the only resource that can prolong my life, and the only resource that can repair my Dao foundation.
“For a thousand years I hid in the black market, avoiding conflicts, harming sentient beings, and encroaching on the toughness of the gods, secretly collecting nuclear debris, slowly healing my injuries, and accumulating cultivation.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire forbidden underground area immediately fell silent.
