"Constant?"
What in this world is unchanging? Everything in the world is constantly changing, so how can anything remain the same?
Li Xingkong still knew too little about the concept of immortals.
"That's right. The world is vast, and you may never find two flowers that are exactly alike. But no matter how beautiful or unique they are, they all have one common name: they are all flowers."
"This concept, extracted from things, does not change as things change."
"You ate a watermelon today, and it's called a watermelon. So if I also ate a watermelon today, is it also called a watermelon?"
"When you become a conceptual entity, you inherently sever your strong connection with the material world."
"But what's the point? We've already overcome the final Cocoon-Breaking Tribulation. Even if the universe returns to silence, we can find another path. Could it be that after the Cocoon-Breaking Tribulation, there will be a new tribulation?"
Judging from the attitudes of Yuanjun and Wan Chongshan, there's something fishy going on behind this ascension to immortality.
Yuanjun and Wan Chongshan exchanged a glance but did not offer any explanation to Li Xingkong.
"You'll understand these things when you become an immortal. All I can say is that the world among immortals is completely different from what you imagine."
It seems this matter is inconvenient to reveal to Li Xingkong now. Li Xingkong doesn't insist; he already has a general understanding of the cause and effect. This visit to Yuanjun has been very fruitful.
Rather than saying that becoming an immortal requires settling karmic debts, it's more accurate to say that this is patching up the path to immortality.
As for the parts that Yuanjun and Wan Chongshan didn't mention, Li Xingkong didn't have that much curiosity for the time being. After all, it was a bit too far off. He hadn't even become an immortal yet, so why was he thinking about those things?
After exchanging pleasantries with Yuanjun for a while, Li Xingkong bid farewell to Yuanjun with the system and began preparations to return to the Primordial Universe.
"Why do I feel like becoming an immortal isn't so great after all?"
As we emerged from Yuanjun's main hall, the system suddenly spoke.
"What nonsense are you thinking? If it weren't that good, why would so many people be pursuing immortality? You haven't seen any of the benefits of being an immortal; you've only seen others complaining."
Li Xingkong laughed. This guy seemed like the fox who said the grapes were sour because he couldn't reach them.
"Indeed, would Yuanjun and Senior Wan Chongshan harm you?"
The light cluster formed by the system shrank and returned to Li Xingkong's body.
"Stop thinking about it. Why think so much? Right now, let's understand the matter of cause and effect. Once I become Human Immortal, everything will become clear."
Li Xingkong didn't think too much about it. He stepped back into the small world, tidied himself up a bit, and then opened the door back to the Primordial Universe.
Earth Star, here I come!
Because Li Xingkong set the anchor point between the Primordial Universe and the Primordial World on Earth Star, the will of the universe increased its protection for this small Earth Star, which made the entire Solar System a true safe zone.
When Li Xingkong emerged from Earth Star, he discovered that the entire Solar System had completely changed.
Originally, the Solar System should have been dominated by cultivators, but now, looking around, the entire Solar System is a mixed bag. Although there are quite a few cultivators, there are even more aliens of all kinds.
His Divine Sense spread out, covering the entire galaxy, and Li Xingkong was also taken aback by the current prosperity of the Solar System.
The entire Solar System is almost completely filled. In addition to the original planets, all sorts of space stations, star rings, and space fortresses have packed the entire Solar System into layers, making it look like a giant Kowloon Walled City.
Moreover, Li Xingkong discovered something interesting: throughout the entire Solar System, there were tens of thousands of organizations and institutions of all sizes, and many of them were even mortal enemies that Li Xingkong had only heard of and who would fight to the death on ordinary days. At this moment, they had settled down face to face in some corner of the Solar System.
This situation is quite interesting; even Li Xingkong is a little confused.
It's just a safe zone, is it really that people are flocking to it?
Finding a place where cultivators gathered, Li Xingkong flashed down and landed.
"Senior brother, another 120 organizations want a place to settle down this month, what do you think..."
" The Solar System is only so big, who can carve out so much space for them? Let's settle them outside the system."
"Um, wouldn't this be..."
"What's so great about that? Look how many people there are in the Solar System now. We've even evacuated half of our cultivators to make room for them, but the Solar System is only so big. Where are we going to find that much land?"
"But if we place them outside the department, wouldn't that..."
"Sigh, there are also cultivators patrolling outside the department, so safety should be guaranteed no matter what."
"Ever since this cosmic war started, the number of refugees has been increasing. At this rate, we won't be able to accommodate them all."
"Sigh, having more people is indeed troublesome, but the technology and data also come along, which is exactly what we're lacking right now, isn't it?"
"Too..."
Before Li Xingkong could even ask anyone a question, he overheard the conversation between the two.
So all these people have come to the Solar System because there's a war going on outside.
Moreover, this battle was extremely fierce; to call it a cosmic war, its scale and intensity must have been considerable.
No wonder...
These small groups are all seeking refuge.
But why are the three major forces fighting? Could it be that a civilization has already produced more than two Dao Integration cultivators?
Given the personalities of those three old guys, getting them to completely break off relations would be no small matter.
Li Xingkong did not show himself in front of the cultivators; he already knew almost everything he wanted to know.
However, Li Xingkong made contact with the server he Name-Calling Rebirth Technique after a long time, intending to see what the current state of the outside universe was like.
Compared to the last exploration, the current server is like a network, extending to every corner of the universe. Li Xingkong felt endless information rushing into his mind.
Li Xingkong quickly reviewed all the information, big and small.
As they predicted, the conflict between the three major powers has come to the fore. Their battles are no longer confined to the borders; even the smaller civilizations that are dependent on these powers are now locked in a tense standoff.
These creatures that came to the Solar System were mostly members of small civilizations affected by the war. For them, the Solar System was undoubtedly the best refuge.
As for Divine Land... Li Xingkong could only say that Divine Land, which had been lying low for a long time, had begun its own expansion in this war, the duration of which was still unknown.
Not only has its territory expanded several times over, but it has now become a mainstay of the Kingdom of Fixed Light.
Although the three forces were fighting fiercely, the war continued only outside the borders of Divine Land. Inside Divine Land, things were surprisingly harmonious.
