The World of Great Divine Ability Users is So Filthy...

The difference in cultivation realms, the height of one's Dao... it's difficult to express and describe with ordinary language.

But that doesn't mean they aren't important.

On the contrary, this is a crucial point during a confrontation!

"If I face an enemy with a superior realm, what should I do?" Feng Xi asked Dijiang for advice.

When he heard from the Ancestral Witch that those Grand Unity powerhouses weren't particular about their appearances and would create all sorts of low-level alts... a random passerby on the street could be one of the billions of avatars of a Great Divine Ability User.

This insane situation made Feng Xi very worried—he might encounter a similar situation to today, getting crushed by a cheater.

"It's very simple," Ancestral Witch Dijiang met his expectations and directly provided a solution. "First, check each other's cultivation."

"What if they're similar?"

"Then you run, run with all your might!" Dijiang said. "During a battle, the realm and Dao are dominant, but that's not the case when you're running away."

"Running away tests your cultivation, your mastery of divine abilities!"

"But if the opponent's realm is higher than mine, their divine abilities should also be stronger, right?" Feng Xi asked, confused. "Won't simply running expose my weak back to the opponent?"

"In that situation, it's better to turn back and fight..."

"You're not even as good as your opponent in terms of escaping, so where do you get the confidence to counter-kill?" Dijiang asked in surprise. "I don't see any other possibility besides dying faster."

"And running, even if you're still caught by the opponent... but during that time you delay, perhaps new variables will emerge?"

Feng Xi was speechless, unable to retort.

"Besides, don't think escaping is shameful..." Dijiang smacked his lips. "You need to understand, your opponent is a cheater, their true strength is countless times greater than yours."

"When others bully the weak, why would you stubbornly charge forward?"

"Of course, you should make a strategic withdrawal, preserve your useful self, and wait for an opportunity to get back at them later." The Ancestral Witch patiently imparted his life experience. "Once you become a True Immortal, you gain eternal life... Our Primordial Era world isn't some incomplete small world with limited lifespan, where you can only hope to shine for a moment, be sung of and remembered by later generations, achieving spiritual immortality."

"Throwing away your own life on impulse... isn't worth it!"

"After a successful strategic withdrawal, write down the opponent's name in a small notebook, flip it open every morning to motivate yourself—revenge for an immortal can wait for ten thousand years."

"Then, continuously observe your target... When you find an opportunity, strike him by surprise!"

Dijiang seemed to be speaking from experience, making the listener Feng Xi feel that this Ancestral Witch seemed to have gone through some very unbearable past experiences.

His gossip-loving soul burned fiercely; he was curious about Dijiang's story.

Of course, his rational mind suppressed this suicidal impulse.

Instead, he listened to the teachings with utmost seriousness, engraving Ancestral Witch Dijiang's life experience into his heart.

This was the wisdom of a successful person, something you couldn't hear at ordinary times!

"This is the situation where your cultivation is similar," Dijiang continued. "And if your cultivation greatly surpasses your opponent?"

"Depending on the situation, you can consider counter-attacking."

"If you can't win, then run." The Ancestral Witch smiled. "Indeed, the advantage of realm and Dao allows one to have foresight and make long-term plans."

"But if your cultivation is high, you might be able to overturn this advantage."

"It's like a game of chess. Your opponent is a national master, experienced, skilled, and understands the overall trend."

"But if it's a handicap game? Then it's a real fight."

"Even more so, if the rules of the chessboard are very friendly to cultivation, like Five in a Row? Then you can easily counter-kill!"

"Of course, if you still can't gain the upper hand even then... then retreating is the only option."

It's not that you weren't given a chance, but you were useless!

If you can't win even a handicap game, why not run?

Feng Xi listened and nodded repeatedly, admitting that Dijiang's words were very true.

He took out a small notebook and very seriously recorded the Ancestral Witch's statements.

--Although True Immortal cultivation grants unparalleled memory.

This was a matter of attitude, showing Feng Xi's respect and importance towards the great Ancestral Witch's teachings!

Just as Feng Xi finished recording and was writing down his thoughts afterward, Ancestral Witch Dijiang suddenly sighed.

"What's wrong?"

Feng Xi looked bewildered.

"It's time to end," Dijiang said. "The battle should end."

Feng Xi instantly turned around, focusing on the battlefield, but... he didn't understand.

The battle was still as fierce as ever.

But Dijiang said, "Your nine teammates have already lost. After another hundred or eighty rounds, they'll be completely wiped out."

"Does this mean that the true strength of the Ancestral Witches is greater than the Grand Unity behind them?"

Feng Xi's eyes suddenly lit up. He was clear about his position and firmly stood on the Witch Clan's side.

"That's not necessarily true…" Dijiang chuckled, "Two or three pairs among them have truly comparable strength."

"It's just that they're currently at a disadvantage due to their physique."

"How can the bodies of the lesser witches, produced in batches, compare to the foundations of us Ancestral Witches?"

"So, they lost, and it was a rather unfair loss."

"Like Jun…" Dijiang's tone was strangely peculiar as he watched the pitiful fellow being chased by Houtu, "What a shame."

"So, from the very beginning, the outcome of this battle was already decided?" Feng Xi's eye twitched, "We couldn't possibly have won?"

"Of course," Dijiang said matter-of-factly, "This was originally meant to discipline the troublemakers and let the newly arrived Grand Unity users understand the difference between host and guest… How could we possibly lose?"

"We win, and everything is fine… If we lose?"

"That would be a truly world-shattering event!"

"Let alone crushing them with our foundations, even if we rigged the game… we still had to win!"

"This principle isn't just understood by us… those people understand it too." Dijiang gestured with his eyes, and Feng Xi followed his gaze. His 'teammates,' whose defeat had been deemed certain, showed no signs of dejection; they looked as if it were perfectly normal. "Their original intention was to observe and invest in the Witch Clan, not to crash the party."

"Win or lose? They don't care too much, and they wouldn't fight for victory at all costs."

"A probing spar would be enough for them."

"Otherwise, if they wanted to embarrass us, they could have used their weakest against our strongest… and some Ancestral Witches would have ended up losing face." Dijiang shrugged indifferently. "Of course, after that, what they would face… would be the situation of all twelve of us Ancestral Witches appearing together to obliterate their true forms!"

Feng Xi fell silent upon hearing this.

At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind—

The world of Great Divine Ability Users, with all its rampant backroom deals, is truly so dirty!
