"No way, have you been possessed? This is a development you can't handle?"
The system remained incredulous, its expression one of utter disbelief.
"You just mentioned that the Thousand Mountains Method can make probability certain, and in the context of Golden Core Stage cultivation, isn't that the greatest aid in itself?"
While carefully examining the changes in his body, Li Xingkong communicated with the system.
"That's true, but rumors and seeing it with your own eyes are two different things..."
"So, this Thousand Mountains Method can really determine the probability? Does that mean you'll be the chosen one with the best luck from now on?"
The system still seemed somewhat skeptical.
Li Xingkong couldn't help but laugh inside. Hehe, even it had a day when its jaw dropped.
That's true, but the cost is actually quite high.
Li Xingkong had lost count of how many parallel worlds he had created; the number of clones connected to him in his mind alone was already countless.
His current rudimentary understanding of the Thousand Mountains Method only allows him to have a vague connection with his clones, but he cannot directly communicate with or control them, let alone move them between parallel worlds like he did with the Wan Chongshan Technique.
Only a strange connection told him that he had countless clones, scattered in countless parallel worlds, living their own lives.
However, Li Xingkong could not reveal the cost of the Thousand Mountains Method. Although the system was one with him, Li Xingkong dared not tell it before Wan Chongshan spoke.
He might be fine if he said it, but the system clone would suffer. Whether it had to be remade or torn away, Li Xingkong didn't want to break his promise or harm it.
"Nonsense, such rapid advancement comes at a price. If such a method truly existed, everyone would be a dragon among men."
"Forget it, just seeing you makes my teeth ache. Try to improve your self-control these next few days and stop cultivating. I know cultivation is addictive, but if you keep cultivating like this, others won't be able to stand it."
The system gave repeated instructions and earnest advice.
"Others? Who?"
Li Xingkong was a little confused. His cultivation location was already quite remote; he had deliberately avoided the star system where the teleportation point was located.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it's only been a few years since they installed the teleportation point, and they've already forgotten? Not all civilizations have teleportation points. Those native civilizations that haven't even set foot on their planet are civilizations too."
The system then pointed Li Xingkong in a direction.
"Look over there."
Li Xingkong followed the marker and saw that in the direction indicated by the system, in another star system far away, there were indeed several planets rotating. Upon closer inspection, there were indeed traces of civilization on those planets.
However, it seems that those civilizations are currently in a state of emergency and turmoil, as if they are fighting some kind of world war.
Li Xingkong had surged, and dared not directly cross space, fearing that his movements would bring a devastating blow to that civilization. So he could only observe from where he was.
Controlling his surging Divine Sense, Li Xingkong extended it step by step forward, probing towards the star system where that civilization resided with minimal effort.
He didn't know where he got the information from, but Li Xingkong felt that his current Divine Sense power was so high that he could already probe the contents of neighboring star systems.
Indeed, this was the case. Li Xingkong's Divine Sense, which had been sent out in that direction, rushed out of the local star system at a rapid speed, entered the observed star system, and covered the planet where that civilization was located.
With the aid of Divine Sense, Li Xingkong's investigation of this civilization became much clearer.
There is indeed war on the ground, but it seems to be a rather subtle one.
The natives of this planet gave Li Xingkong the feeling of entering an aquarium. Whether they swam in the sea or moved on land, they all had obvious marine life characteristics. Of course, the species that lived on land had already developed physical differences.
The civilization's overall technological level was roughly equivalent to that of World War I. A large amount of technology was developed, but it was still limited to military applications, and the lives of ordinary people remained poor and uninteresting.
However, the places where unrest and war occur are quite different.
It was less of a war and more of a mopping-up operation.
The two sides were completely mismatched in terms of combat strength and technological level; it was a one-sided affair.
The side that was wiped out, emmmm.
Li Xingkong felt a little guilty.
Those people were innocent; they were simply affected by the noise and activity Li Xingkong was creating during his cultivation. When they tried to observe the source of the noise, they were corrupted by the aura emanating from Li Xingkong's cultivation.
Because Li Xingkong was in an unconscious state of cultivation, the range of his Divine Sense was constantly expanding. What was originally just a slight fluctuation aroused the curiosity of some scientists in this native civilization, thus prompting them to study this fluctuation.
However, Li Xingkong's cultivation progressed too quickly. In just a few days, the influence of his Divine Sense grew stronger and stronger. The most direct impact on this civilization was that all the frontline research members went mad.
It's not madness in the traditional sense; this madness isn't just reflected in the mind, but is directly manifested on the surface of the individual's body.
Their bodies began to lose the characteristics of marine creatures, and human-like limbs appeared. Even their minds were affected by the residual information of the Thousand Mountains Method and the Golden Core Method, which gave them a slight distortion and also endowed them with certain spellcasting abilities.
In just a few days, a cult whose main doctrine was the worship of Li Xingkong had spread throughout this civilization.
And now, Li Xingkong is observing just that: the local indigenous civilization has begun an organized crackdown on this cult.
To be honest, although Li Xingkong saw everything, he really couldn't say which side he should help.
It's their freedom to entertain themselves within their own community, but these followers are also their own believers, and it's not right to just abandon them.
I'm torn.
However, after only a moment's hesitation, Li Xingkong found a solution.
Ultimately, this whole thing started because of him, so it's clearly unreasonable to just do nothing.
Li Xingkong carefully manipulated his Divine Sense, adapting and modifying another planet in the star system. After practicing his manipulation skills for several days, he finally extracted all the life forms he had influenced and sent them to the other planet.
Li Xingkong also did his best to revive those who lost their lives as a result.
Originally, Li Xingkong planned to send those affected to another planet after his resurrection. However, after witnessing Li Xingkong's power, their original civilization completely changed its perception of Li Xingkong and bowed down in worship.
