# Chapter 2966: The Truth of the World!
Now Jiangnan felt reassured. If I'm already invincible, what is there to be afraid of?
Just as his good big brother said, they should be burning incense that I don't go invade their world!
But the top-tier combat power level in this world was truly abnormal. Was it a problem with the overall era's rules that led to this situation?
Jiangnan continued to study it closely!
And within the Celestial Palace Starry Sky World, the most conspicuous thing was none other than the Great Dao World Tree at the world's heart!
When Jiangnan first saw it, he was genuinely shocked. This was the first time he had seen such a massive natural cosmic structure!
The Six Domain Immortal Capital on the tree crown was the center of civilization, and it was divided into six regions!
Each region was occupied by one of the Six Great Dao Sects, namely: the Great Dao Sword Sect, the Divine Hidden Dao Sect, the Eight Desolate Beast Sect, the Ember Silence Demon Sect, the Holy Soul Spirit Sect, and the Ten Thousand Scrolls Dao Sect—six major giant sects!
These were considered the top sect forces in this starry world, and even the starry sky itself was divided into six regions!
The Six Domains of Immortals, Gods, Demons, Beasts, Spirits, and Arts. Under the rule of the Six Great Dao Sects, there were countless smaller sects and branch sects!
They selected disciples from the lowest levels. If a seedling was outstanding enough, they would be sent up level by level until they reached the final dream sect of all cultivators—one of the Six Great Dao Sects!
And the sects that recommended disciples would also prosper alongside them!
This structure ensured that almost no potential good seedling was missed, so the Dao Sects were filled with experts!
The Six Great Dao Sects competed with each other, clashed, applied pressure, and incidents of stealing disciples were common!
Yet it always remained under a healthy competitive dynamic, driving the era to flourish and develop vigorously!
It was worth mentioning that besides the Six Great Dao Sects, there was also the Rogue Cultivator Alliance in the starry world!
Although the Rogue Cultivator Alliance didn't have the prestige of the Six Great Dao Sects, their sphere of influence spanned all six star domains, providing shelter for all cultivators who didn't want to join the Six Great Dao Sect system!
And the leader of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance was also at the Pseudo-Creation Realm level!
Jiangnan felt his scalp tingling. Under such an era structure and rules, how could the era not be brilliant?
Although it still had the cruelty typical of the cultivation world, as long as one was talented, intelligent, and capable, there was basically an opportunity to climb up!
Opportunities were laid out everywhere on the ground!
The Six Great Dao Sects and the Rogue Cultivator Alliance also placed great importance on disciple training and wouldn't do things like draining the pond to catch all the fish!
There were corresponding rules to protect the weak and allow them to grow! The promotion channels for the weak were not closed!
Although the Celestial Palace Starry Sky World was a cultivation civilization, looking at this direction, the brilliance of their civilization was in no way inferior to the Ten Thousand Races Starry Sky World, and was even significantly stronger!
This was something the ranking slave system of the Thousand Stars Era could never compare to!
That was why the Great Yan Era had only developed for over a billion years and had already reached such heights, and would continue to flourish!
Jiangnan was puzzled:
(｡･ˇ_ˇ･) "But that doesn't make sense? Under such a system, the emergence of Cosmos Realm should be almost inevitable. Why are all the top combat powers so pathetic?"
"If it's not a problem with the people, then it must be a problem with the world itself. Let me see what's wrong with this Celestial Palace Starry Sky World!"
Jiangnan could not only see the present but also the past of this world!
He could even start viewing from the beginning of time!
Jiangnan frantically traced backward through the pages of reality until he started from after the birth of the Celestial Palace Starry Sky World and then followed forward!
Not long after the world was born, the cosmic network had already formed the Great Dao World Tree, though it was just a blurry outline!
They also went through the process of great reclamation, gradually forming a cultivation civilization. The fate of the reclaimers was destined to be tragic, but they also laid the foundation for the world...
Then came the development of era after era!
Each era ranged from as short as two to three billion years to as long as five to six billion years!
They also made mistakes, experiencing era rules of extreme exploitation and oppression, but the results inevitably collapsed quickly!
And during this process, the outline of the Great Dao World Tree at the world's heart became clearer and more radiant!
The most terrifying thing was that the Celestial Palace Starry Sky World had actually experienced a hundred-billion-year era!
It was called the Primordial Beginning Era. In the Ten Thousand Races World, there had never been an era that lasted this long!
During the Primordial Beginning Era, the cultivation civilization reached its zenith, and even a female cultivator named City-Toppling Immortal appeared!
She always covered her face with a veil, and no one in the world knew her true appearance, only that her beauty was beyond description—a thousand forms in one painting, a hundred ways beyond portrayal—one smile could topple a city, another smile could topple a kingdom!
But Jiangnan knew what she looked like. From the Five-Dimensional Life Forbidden Zone, of course he could see!
He had to admit, she was quite beautiful, but certainly not as beautiful as his own Xuexue!
However, she was born into poverty, sold to a large family as a servant girl, and climbed all the way up, eventually reaching the position of the number one immortal in this world. That was impressive enough!
And she was also the strongest cultivator to have appeared since the birth of the Celestial Palace Starry Sky World, the one closest to the Cosmos Realm!
With her accumulated knowledge, just one more step would have been enough to create a world!
And it was the hard-creation route. If she had achieved Cosmos, she would probably have been stronger than even Qing Jie and Xun Zu!
But she didn't choose to create a world; instead, she self-destructed!
Because the closer City-Toppling Immortal got to Cosmos, the more the era inevitably headed toward collapse!
Friends kept having accidents, star disasters continued unceasingly, calamities spread, plagues ran rampant...
City-Toppling Immortal understood that if she insisted on creating a world, the lives within the era would probably be doomed, the era would enter a dark chaotic age, and the entire starry world would be plunged into misery!
Jiangnan felt his scalp tingle: ∑(°口°๑) "Sss—It's the Starry World Will pulling the strings! That Great Dao World Tree? It's using various methods to prevent the emergence of the Cosmos Realm?"
On one side was the absolute peak within reach, on the other side were the lives of all beings in the era!
The Starry World Will was threatening City-Toppling Immortal with all life!
In the end, City-Toppling Immortal still made her choice!
She spoke a sentence that made Jiangnan's heart tremble!
"If this is what your heart desires, then I will grant your wish..."
"What does reaching the absolute peak matter? May the prosperous age last long..."
"May the world's people forever live in this brilliant dream, and never try to tear open the sky's curtain! Beyond the sky's curtain lies only loneliness and destruction..."
City-Toppling Immortal still gave up on creating a world and achieving Cosmos. Instead, she chose to self-destruct, allowing the prosperous era to continue!
After City-Toppling Immortal died, the Great Dao World Tree became clearer, nearly taking shape!
The Primordial Beginning Era did experience turmoil, but without too much loss, a new era began—the Wild Immortal Era!
After the Wild Immortal Era came the current Great Yan Era!
Jiangnan watched this scene, a chill running down his spine!
It was precisely from City-Toppling Immortal's death that the Celestial Palace Starry Sky World's shackles became heavier. From then on, no one could create a world and transform into Cosmos anymore!
The strongest were those like Li Daoyan!
It wasn't that they were trash; it was that if they wanted to create a world, the world's resistance they had to overcome was too strong. It had become an impossible task!
So they could only settle for the next best thing, creating a small world. This was already the highest point they could reach!
Because above their heads, there was always a sky's curtain—a sky's curtain and shackles personally set by the Starry Sky Will!
Jiangnan swallowed his saliva, his hands and feet ice-cold:
Σ(°△°|||) "So... so that's how it is? The growth of the Starry World Will is closely related to the brilliance of the civilization within the world!"
"This Celestial Palace Starry World Will's growth rate is much faster than the Ten Thousand Races Starry World Will, isn't it?"
"When City-Toppling Immortal was about to reach Cosmos, the World Will was already not weak. Yet she still had a chance to create a world—the last chance! But she didn't take it... Sigh~"
"After that, the Starry World Will became even stronger, making it even more unwilling to allow the birth of a Cosmos Realm existence like that?"
And with each era's development and change, the Starry Sky Will became stronger and more mature!
A cycle of harvesting leeks, over and over!
Under normal circumstances, as the Starry Sky Will, it definitely wouldn't want a Cosmos Realm to be born in its world!
Because a Cosmos Realm would cut its own land, absorb its own realm power, and might even devour the starry world to strengthen its own world!
If the Starry World Will wasn't strong enough, it simply couldn't withstand it!
And survival was the instinct of every Starry World Will!
So setting up shackles to prevent the birth of Cosmos and letting the era develop brilliantly was also normal!
After all, the birth of a Cosmos Realm was absolutely harmful and not beneficial to the Starry World itself!
Because in terms of level, a Cosmos Realm was already an existence at the same level as the Starry World Will, only differing in world size!
And a naturally achieved Cosmos had fewer restrictions than an innate Starry World Will!
So preventing the birth of Cosmos was the normal thing!
But the problem was that the Ten Thousand Races Starry World was different!
Back home, the starry world had only been born for 13.8 billion years, and the Starry Sky Will's growth was extremely slow, an entire level slower than the Celestial Palace Starry World Will!
What was the reason for this? Was it because of the extra 3.5-dimensional dimensional gap? Accidentally blowing out an extra dimension, making the scope too big and hard to grow?
And what was even more ridiculous was that the Celestial Palace Starry World had a history of 27.4 billion years!
City-Toppling Immortal was a seedling that only emerged when the world had developed nearly 20 billion years!
But the Ten Thousand Races Starry World was different! Qing Jie and the others had emerged less than 10 billion years in!
Those Cosmos Realm geniuses of the Eternal Era were all formidable!
Even more terrifying was the Great Reclamation Era, where King of Night, Cang Zhou, Xing Yan, and others were all ruthless characters!
Although they ultimately laid the foundation for the world, their unwillingness created the God Burial Wasteland and the Old God Treasure, which poisoned the world for many years and even became the First Heavenly Calamity!
On the Celestial Palace Starry World side, those reclaimers died and that was it—they didn't stir up much trouble at all!
Comparing the histories of both worlds, one could see that the Ten Thousand Races Starry World had more masters, higher quality, and earlier emergence than the Celestial Palace Starry World!
Jiangnan swallowed his saliva. Could it really be because of the extra dimensional gap? Was the Ten Thousand Races Starry World more complete, with a much better foundation, thus producing more powerful life?
And because of the larger scope, the Starry World Will developed slowly!
It simply couldn't control the various lives in the world causing trouble!
It also couldn't keep up with the growth speed of those lives, nor could it suppress them!
That was why Qing Jie broke through to Cosmos, but was still beaten down by the world!
Logically, the Starry World Will absolutely didn't want to produce Cosmos Realm geniuses!
But later, because of Jiang Fan's doing, it fell into the Final Black Hole. To get out, it had to destroy the world and restart the starry world!
The Ten Thousand Races Starry Will had no choice. If it wanted to survive, it had to bring about Cosmos Realm existences. So Jiangnan, Xiao Chuihuo, the Primordial Machine, Wanxiang, and even Xun Zu—all these powerful figures started popping out one after another!
It had no other choice if it wanted to continue existing?
Jiangnan's mouth twitched: (•́ω•̀٥) "Good heavens... The situation back home is really interesting! The Ten Thousand Races Starry World Will has been tortured to the point that it doesn't even know how to play anymore!"
"It has never managed to follow the correct world development trajectory. The Celestial Palace Starry World is operating smoothly, setting up level sky curtains, harvesting leeks batch after batch to strengthen itself!"
"The Ten Thousand Races Starry Will also wants to harvest, but because it accidentally blew out an extra 3.5 dimensions, the scope is too big, its growth speed is slow, plus its foundation is good, the lives it produces are powerful, and it simply can't control them or outplay them. Now even its continued existence has become a problem..."
"Pathetically begging for help from everyone, just wanting to survive? Pfft—hahahaha! That poor little thing!"
The dignified Starry World Will, how had it ended up so miserable?
Jiangnan even imagined the pitiful look of the Ten Thousand Races Starry Will, battered and bruised, secretly wiping away tears in grievance!
Truly miserable!
No wonder! No wonder!
The abnormal one wasn't the Celestial Palace Starry World; their own Ten Thousand Races Starry World was the abnormal one!
