Chapter 2985: Six Paths Study Group!
At this moment, the pitch-black Chaos Heaven Abyss lay horizontally in front of the seven people, slashed open by Jiangnan's single strike!
This strike perfectly demonstrated the utmost heights that life could achieve!
It also shattered all illusions in Li Daoyan and the others' hearts!
Every word Jiangnan had spoken was absolutely correct!
If they had truly fought to the death just now, their deaths would have been utterly meaningless!
Because some forms of power were unshakable even if one gave everything!
The chasm in strength was insurmountable!
The Eternal Demon Lord clearly could have used this overwhelming power to crush the entire Dayan Era from the very beginning!
But he hadn't; instead, he had created all of this...
At this point, they no longer had any will to fight. Faced with such heavenly might, any struggle would only be a futile sacrifice, and the situation would remain unchanged!
Li Daoyan's expression was strained:
(￢﹏￢#) "Not wanting to destroy the world? Then what were all your actions about..."
Jiangnan rolled his eyes exaggeratedly:
(꒪ั～꒪ั*) "I've told you! I came here to study and exchange! Although this world of yours has a very low ceiling because of the Heavenly Curtain, it's not without its merits. Different Starry Sky Worlds give birth to different civilizations. Your method of divine cultivation actually has some substance to it!"
"So I planned to first beat you into submission, then capture you to give lectures. Of course, you won't be teaching for free. You'll also gain knowledge and skills from me that you've never even conceived of..."
"If I didn't do it this way, who would pay any attention to me? How else would I get your attention and earn the opportunity to learn? Since we were going to fight sooner or later, it's better to finish early and get it over with, then settle down to study in peace. I'm very studious, you know—"
The faces of the seven Creation Realm experts all turned pitch black!
(̿▀̿益▀̿̿(̿▀̿益▀̿̿(̿▀̿益▀̿̿)̄...
You went through all that trouble, almost beating us to death, slicing the Starry Sky World in half with a single strike, and we were on the verge of going all out!
And now you're saying you didn't come to destroy the world, but to study and exchange?
Is this how you exchange?
With your level of strength, do we really have the qualifications to teach you?
But the Eternal Demon Lord's words carried too much information. They could confirm that the Starry Sky World was indeed not unique, and the Eternal Demon Lord was indeed from another world!
Yan Xing clutched his head, shaking it incessantly:
୧(#థ口థ)୨ "No! I don't believe it! This guy must be trying to confuse us!"
"With such power, why doesn't he take the entire world into his grasp? If it were me, I would have already dominated the world!"
"Everyone, don't believe him! He must be deceiving us!"
Jiangnan tilted his head and spat:
(￢3￢〃) "Heh—spit! Rule the world? Look at how pathetic your ambitions are. Who would want such a tiring job? Even a ghost wouldn't do it—"
"This broken place, with the Heavenly Curtain blinding the eyes, who would want it? It's not even as good as my home!"
"But you're right about one thing: I do have the power to overturn the entire Immortal Palace World, and no one can stop me. But would I directly take over the world just to study and exchange? That would be like taking off my pants to fart, wouldn't it?"
Big Eyes and Little Eyes covered their faces. They were calling him pathetic!
Only you have ambition—possessing the unrivaled power to sweep across this starry sky, only to grab some treasures for a bit of fun and then not even take them with you!
Playing the villain was just for the thrill of it; you couldn't even bring yourself to kill anyone!
Chi San Immortal Venerable twitched the corner of his mouth:
(•́﹏•̀٥) "Everyone... what the Eternal Demon Lord senior said... is probably true. Think about it: he made such a big commotion, yet he didn't kill a single person..."
"Those trapped in the Gale also had all their treasures stripped but not a single one died. His attack on the Six Domain Immortal Capital only targeted the Sutra Depository and the Treasure Pavilion, with no casualties among the various families..."
"When he captured me, he even had the loose cultivator alliance deliver technique scrolls and asked me to explain the method of divine cultivation. And... all those techniques I just used, I learned in the Gale..."
"If he wanted to kill us, he could have gone to the Six Domain Immortal Capital and taken each of us out with a single slash. We'd all be gone. The fact that we're still alive now—do you think the Eternal Demon Lord was holding back?"
Lingque Qianhai and the others' eyes twitched. Following Chi San's line of thought, it really did make sense, didn't it?
They all turned to look at the Eternal Demon Lord, who was hugging his shoulders, raising his chin proudly, looking up at the sky while jiggling his leg.
Their faces turned green!
Yan Xing swallowed hard and asked tentatively:
(#◔益◔ิ) "You... are you truly here to study and exchange, and not to destroy the world?"
Jiangnan said impatiently:
(︶益︶〃)ﾉ "Yeah, yeah—how many times do I have to explain? Ask again, and I'll annihilate you, got it?"
Li Daoyan and the others staggered to their feet, their hearts filled with a surge of mixed emotions!
The Dayan Era was safe? It wouldn't be destroyed?
An Eternal Demon Lord had nearly driven everyone to their deaths, dammit!
At this moment, the ××× in Jiangnan's mind was flashing so fast it created afterimages. Unfortunately, he couldn't collect resentment points right now, or this wave would have been a huge profit!
But of course, Li Daoyan and the others dared to resent but not to speak out!
Li Daoyan stood up respectfully:
(⌒﹏⌒;) "Eternal Demon Lord? May I ask... what exactly do you mean by study and exchange? What specific arrangement do you have in mind?"
If there's another fight, we can't take it anymore, dammit!
Jiangnan smiled contentedly:
(͡°͜ʖ͡°)✧ "That's more like it— Over in our Ten Thousand Races Starry Sky World, our development of the Force of Will is relatively weak, while it's quite strong here!"
"So I plan to study the Six Paths' methods of divine cultivation here to make up for my shortcomings. But each of the Six Paths has its own strengths. Studying just one path would be too much of a loss. I want to study all of them and fuse the Six Paths' divine cultivation methods into one, creating the strongest divine cultivation method. Only then will it be worthy of my Eternal Demon Lord's supremely powerful strength!"
"Then I plan to stay here for about three hundred years, during which I'll handle the fusion of the Six Paths. All of you are the best in your respective paths, deeply knowledgeable about what you practice. You're the most suitable to help me research this matter!"
"So! I've decided to establish the Six Paths Study Group. All of you must join this group until the brand-new divine cultivation method is developed!"
At this moment, Li Daoyan and the others were completely petrified!
Σ(유口유|||)
What the hell is the "Six Paths Study Group"?
You actually came up with that!
Here we are, seven Creation Realm experts standing at the peak of the immortal cultivation world, and even if we exchange and learn together, that name is nothing but low-grade, dammit!
We'd rather have something like "Six Paths Reincarnation" or "Dayan Dao Assembly"!
But whatever you say goes!
Who can argue when they can't beat you?
What shocked them even more was that, given the Eternal Demon Lord's level of divine soul strength, it was actually his weakness?
This... this is simply ridiculous!
Jiangnan glared: (ꐦ°᷄д°᷅) "What? Unwilling? It's not like I'm making you work for free. The stuff we have is way more comprehensive than yours!"
"You'll be laughing all the way to the bank if you learn it. Look at Chi San—he was only beaten for a few days, and he's already improved this much!"
Upon hearing this, Lingque Qingyu and the others' eyes all lit up!
They conveniently ignored the "getting beaten" part of the process.
To be honest, they had been stuck here for who knows how many years without any progress!
And what Jiangnan had shown them was entirely new and unknown. No one could resist the temptation of becoming stronger!
Especially Qingyu, as the leader of the Art Path, was most interested in these novel things, okay?
(#¯͒ꇴ¯͒#) "Willing! Of course we're willing! Eternal Demon Lord, arrange it however you want. As long as you don't destroy the world, everything is fine!"
Jiangnan tilted his head and gave them a look:
(๑•᷄ࡇ•᷅) "Why are you standing there? Come over and exchange, won't you?"
Nian Hongyan watched the entire scene, completely dumbfounded!
Σ(°△°|||)
She didn't even know where to start complaining, dammit!
The Eternal Demon Lord senior truly never intended to destroy the world; he only wanted to study and exchange, yet he created such a grand spectacle!
But as Jiangnan said, this method was undoubtedly the fastest and safest!
If he hadn't beaten them up, who would have submitted?
Nian Hongyan couldn't help covering her face. Earlier, she had been wondering if she was aiding the tyrant if the Eternal Demon Lord really intended to destroy the world!
As it turned out, her worries were completely unnecessary, okay?
She would never have imagined that this great crisis that had swept through the entire immortal cultivation world would end in such a dramatic fashion, dammit!
After the storm passed, Li Daoyan and the others made a series of arrangements to settle the aftermath caused by the Demon Lord Invasion incident!
They informed the entire immortal cultivation world about the Eternal Demon Lord's true purpose and announced that he would bring new vitality and systems to the cultivation world!
The Gale surrounding the Demon Pupil Star System and the Wind Shadow would continue to exist for the next few hundred years!
The Six Great Dao Sects, as well as the loose cultivator alliances, could bring their disciples here to train and learn new knowledge and divine abilities!
From Eternal Realm powerhouses down to the insignificant little ones at the Unbounded or Illusory Unity levels, everyone could come!
There would be no more incidents of stripping and stealing treasures, and the safety of those who came to train would be guaranteed!
The never-ending Gale, which had once been an absolute forbidden zone for the cultivators of the Immortal Palace Starry Sky World, would instead become an exceptionally popular training ground!
Of course, Jiangnan had his own plans too!
Countless cultivators would come to train, and their divine abilities and techniques would also be recorded by the Gale!
Over the course of more than three hundred years, the Gale would record all the glories of the Immortal Palace Starry Sky World!
At that time, the Gale would contain not only the brilliance of the Ten Thousand Races Starry Sky World but also the splendor of the Immortal Palace Starry Sky World!
By merging everything from both worlds, the fierce Southern Wind would become even stronger!
Jiangnan even planned to record everything when he visited other Starry Sky Worlds one by one, carrying the brilliance of all worlds as he stepped into the endless eternal unknown!
By that time, how magnificent would this Gale be?
If Lin Qing knew, he would surely be gratified, right?
As soon as the training notice was released, it became incredibly popular. After all, everyone had witnessed the might of the Eternal Demon Lord. If they could learn something from him, how strong would they become?
This was a great fortune, okay? Cultivators never said no to fortune!
The vicinity of the Demon Pupil Star System became completely lively because of the Gale's trial!
As for Li Daoyan and the other seven? They had it rough!
