Destiny Cluster Tiers

Destiny Clusters, in many Artificial Divine Realms, have other names.

Spiritual Root, Bone Structure, Talent, Gift, Bloodline, and so on.

Since this is the case, there are distinctions between high and low, strong and weak. There are no useless Destiny Clusters, only useless users.

For example, Geng Liangchen has a Destiny Cluster called [Steel Skin]. It's enough to enhance the skin's resistance to damage, making the skin appear pale and tough. It allows the force from a struck area to be instantly transferred to the entire body's surface, further weakening the effect of the impact.

Geng Liangchen, a Ghost Heavenly General possessing [Steel Skin], appears fair and thin, but in reality, he has short-term damage resistance comparable to Zhao Jian's muscular monster.

Lan Yi's [Azure Radiance] is definitely stronger than Geng Liangchen's [Steel Skin].

It's not hard to see.

Without sufficient Daoist Arts knowledge, a Martial Artist who activated [Steel Skin] can beat down a Martial Artist who activated [Azure Radiance] on the ground. The early-stage cutting damage from [Azure Radiance] is considered unharmful to [Steel Skin].

But if they are experienced, and [Azure Radiance] begins to control magnetic fields and convert evil, sealing divine abilities, and performing Daoist Arts out of thin air, then even a Martial Artist with [Steel Skin] who has reached the Impenetrable Realm will still be toyed to death by the [Azure Radiance] user.

So, the question is.

Are there any Destiny Clusters?

That don't require arduous accumulation of knowledge, nor special cultivation, nor worry about harming oneself. As long as it exists, it is strong, it is unreasonable, and its starting point is higher than other Destiny Clusters?

Yes!

And more than one!

The Seven Divine Destiny Clusters!

Some Divine Destiny Clusters can cause all things to burn, transforming them from stable material foundations into a plasma state. Some Divine Destiny Clusters can absorb all waves and release all waves, creating the destructive power of a supernova explosion. Some Divine Destiny Clusters can directly turn a person into a top-tier space ability user, allowing them to jump through space at will.

You must know that for ordinary Destiny Clusters to reach such a level, they can only do so by relying on Destiny Maps and combinations with other Destiny Clusters. Divine Destiny Clusters, however, not only have outrageous abilities on their own, but they can also be combined with other Destiny Clusters to achieve even more exaggerated and terrifying power!

Besides Divine Destiny Clusters.

Some special or powerful Destiny Clusters still possess considerable combat strength.

Take Lan Yi's [Azure Radiance] for example. Even without Daoist Arts knowledge, as long as he's not afraid of death, his three thousand white hairs intertwined and flying can cut a Terminator into pieces. If he intends to go down together, his three thousand white hairs can pierce into the enemy's body and directly summon lightning, making even a liquid robot kneel.

Obtaining a Divine Destiny Cluster means this person is destined to become a top-tier psionic cultivator.

Such a good thing.

Is naturally extremely rare.

To what extent is it rare?

Before his rebirth, Lan Yi had never seen a single Divine Destiny Cluster. It was rumored that in the main world, only one person was detected to possess a Divine Destiny Cluster. Not long after the news broke, this person inexplicably disappeared, triggering a chaotic war between two major civilizations.

In the end, that Divine Destiny Cluster vanished without a trace.

Some say it was hidden, some say it was destroyed, and some say there were no Divine Destiny Clusters at all, and the whole thing was a scam from the beginning.

As for the Artificial Divine Realms.

There wasn't even a shadow of a Divine Destiny Cluster. All sorts of false information flew everywhere, sounding very convincing, but psionic cultivators often found themselves being used after great effort. Afterward, they simply stopped bothering.

However...

As a top-tier lone wolf who often deals with fortunate encounters like Jin Buhuan, Lan Yi, due to subjective reasons (Old Demon Lan's notorious reputation meant no Artificial Divine Realm welcomed him) and objective reasons (social niceties were too troublesome, the Human Emperor Banner often invited the three races together as guests, and wanted orders stuck to him), Lan Yi frequently ventured into some more special Artificial Divine Realms.

These types of Artificial Divine Realms carry great risks.

The risk here refers not to the presence of powerful experts or strong power systems within the Artificial Divine Realm, but to the imperfection and abandoned state of the Artificial Divine Realm, commonly known as the borderlands outside the walls.

These dangerous Artificial Divine Realms generally have major logical flaws, with extremely chaotic space and galaxies. Some things called the Evil God Race and anti-logic lifeforms even emerge. Usually, only desperate psionic cultivators, or unburdened pioneers like Lan Yi, would wander into the borderlands.

There, Lan Yi once obtained a clue about Divine Destiny Clusters.

From a bizarre and broken altar emitting purple flames, an unknown entity informed Lan Yi that the first Artificial Divine Realm he experienced held key information about Divine Destiny Clusters.

That's why, during the final negotiation, he made a request to Jin Buhuan to provide information on Divine Destiny Clusters.

Jin Buhuan frowned.

He didn't actually know any information about Divine Destiny Clusters.

However, Lan Yi, that old fox, had grasped the situation perfectly. He didn't know the information about Divine Destiny Clusters, but this Artificial Divine Realm did indeed contain clues about Divine Destiny Clusters. As for what this clue was and where it was, Lan Yi would have to find a way himself. Regarding this, Jin Buhuan, the shrewd businessman, couldn't help but give a thumbs-up to his old friend.

You really don't want to lose out on anything.

You've got your bottom line locked down tight.

Truly my good friend, you shrewd businessman!

"The psionic energy you produce as a veteran is so pure. I haven't inhaled such pure stuff in this backward Artificial Divine Realm for a long time. When are you going to produce some spirit powder for your old friend to enjoy? Hahaha!!! Ooh, yeah!!!"

After discussing business, Jin Buhuan took a deep breath of air.

With an exaggerated expression of utter bliss and rolled-up eyes, he was completely immersed in the joy of being surrounded by psionic energy, twitching dramatically.

"Yes, yes, if you stick your head over here, you'll get some," Lan Yi said with a fake smile.

The spirit powder joke.

This was a joke circulating among psionic cultivators about chemical ecstasy and psionic energy supply. For cultivators from the River Civilization, it wasn't that funny.

"Can't joke around, forget it..." Jin Buhuan stood up, casually scratching at the grime he'd accumulated on himself. "...I'll go apply for your permissions. When the time is right, I'll find you. Get ready, because even with a temporary, limited-access channel, it probably won't be easy for you to complete the mission."

With that, Jin Buhuan turned into a puff of smoke in front of Lan Yi and vanished in an instant.

At this moment, Lan Yi subconsciously glanced at the sky.

Had it already gotten completely dark?

Time truly slipped away without anyone noticing.

Lan Yi's mood had improved considerably. To a large extent, his loneliness had been significantly alleviated. Having a familiar, unexpected old acquaintance, even if that acquaintance was a bit of a trickster and a scoundrel, was much better than having no one to talk to in depth.

He didn't know why.

When he was with Jin Buhuan, Lan Yi always felt a peculiar sense of comfort, somewhat like being with his own kind. However, Jin Buhuan's appearance also served as a reminder to Lan Yi. Although all the channels to the Artificial Divine Realm were sealed during the world annihilation, it was possible that someone within the Artificial Divine Realm retained memories or feelings about the restart.

He couldn't afford to mess up in the Artificial Divine Realm.
