The cold, metallic Rubik's Cube hovered silently half an inch above Lu Li's palm.
Lu Li looked down at it, a rare solemnity appearing in his eyes.
"The power of this thing has exceeded the initial calculation model."
"Originally, it was based on a joint deduction by Bureau 749 and the Spirit Machinery Industry General Administration."
Even if the fourth-layer Virtual Universe is established with the help of a pseudo- Immortal Treasure golden seal, it can at most crush Heavenly Immortal.
"As for Profound Immortal, I originally had no confidence, but now..."
Thinking of the power supporting the fourth layer of the Virtual Universe, Lu Li's eyes trembled.
The Great Xia Dynasty spans several star systems and has a population exceeding tens of billions.
Add to that the almost abnormal quality of the world space in his Dragon-Rising Blessed Land.
This complete connection of the wills of all beings actually triggered a terrifying qualitative change.
"If we were to fully activate this Rubik's Cube now, and lay it out completely without any protection..."
Lu Li murmured to himself, his fingertips gently stroking the edge of the Rubik's Cube.
Even he, an abnormally powerful Earth Immortal, instinctively felt apprehensive when faced with this Immortal Machinery creation that embodied the will of hundreds of billions.
It's too huge.
This is no longer a " Immortal Treasure " in the ordinary sense.
Rather, it is a nascent form of a Great Dao that is constantly devouring Divine Soul computing power and expanding wildly.
More importantly, it still has huge potential for growth.
The hundreds of billions of Great Xia are just the beginning.
Within Lu Li's body, in the Dragon-Rising Blessed Land where his life and death intertwined, hundreds of billions of humans thrived.
If we include Demon Race, Sea Race, spirits, and the tiny intelligent beings nurtured in mountains, rivers, plants, and trees, the total number of living beings exceeds three trillion!
If we also bring these three trillion lives into this virtual world...
Lu Li's heart skipped a beat.
By then, the spatial quality that the Virtual Universe can provide to Dragon-Rising Blessed Land will reach an unimaginable level.
Even without the aid of external star cores or immortal crystals, it can rely solely on this massive flow of consciousness.
That would forcefully push the Dragon-Rising Blessed Land to the level of a creation that could overwhelm the Profound Immortal Dao!
"Three trillion..."
Lu Li gently tapped his knee with his slightly bent knuckles.
The creatures in Dragon-Rising Blessed Land are not Great Xia have received modern compulsory education.
It contains the orthodox framework of the cultivation world.
Numerous sects existed, dynasties were fragmented, and the law of the jungle prevailed.
If you simply throw down the cold, Spirit Machinery bracelet and tell them it's a "high-tech terminal" that can log into the "fourth-layer virtual network,"...
It will most likely be used as a possession Law Artifact by extraterrestrial demons.
Or it could be the demonic methods used by Evil Cultivator to corrupt the mind.
The old monsters in the cultivation Immortal Realm are extremely suspicious; they would rather kill the innocent than be fooled.
Even ordinary mortals might not be attracted to it.
"We can't use scientific methods to deduce this."
We have to go along with their way of thinking.
A thought flashed through Lu Li.
He has experienced the Earth Immortal Tribulation.
Lu Li was already intimately familiar with the workings of the Blessed Land.
What do cultivators believe in most?
They believe in the Heavenly Dao, in fortuitous opportunity, in High Antiquity secret realms, and in the emergence of Immortal Artifact.
If that's the case, why bother explaining what Virtual Universe is?
This fourth layer of space was directly packaged as a lost, ancient, and Great Thousand World.
Disguise the distributed Spirit Machinery bracelets as fragments of the Heavenly Dao or Great Void Immortal Token.
Anyone who refines their essence with a drop of blood can travel between the two realms with their will.
Enter the ancient secret realm to compete for the opportunity to attain the Great fortuitous opportunity, and slay ferocious beasts to replenish your own cultivation.
That's reasonable and justifiable.
As for the clash between the native citizens of Great Xia and the cultivators of Dragon-Rising Blessed Land...
"The difference in understanding between the two sides is too great; we still need to separate them for a while."
"Just like a game, you have to divide it into servers first."
Lu Li's Divine Sense stirred slightly, and he traced a line on the bright silver Rubik's Cube with his fingertip.
A completely isolated firewall is created directly within the underlying architecture.
The Great Xia follow a technology-driven cultivation system, constantly talking about numerical values, Cultivation Method proficiency, and monster drop rates.
The cultivators in this Blessed Land constantly talk about cause and effect, destiny, heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
If they were to meet now, chaos would ensue.
In particular, if the origins of the people of this Blessed Land were exposed again, it would also cause trouble for the people within the Blessed Land.
All that's needed is to set up a logical lock beforehand.
Let both sides develop independently in different virtual spaces.
Once the cultivators in the Blessed Land have fully adapted to this upgrade system...
When we can no longer leave this world, let's have another update that merges the two realms.
By then, it will no longer matter who comes from or where.
Having sorted out his thoughts, a smile flashed in Lu Li's eyes.
Just as he was about to raise his hand, preparing to release a batch of Spirit Machinery bracelets imbued with ancient Daoist charm.
suddenly.
A burst of intense golden light suddenly erupted from Lu Li's chest without warning!
"Buzz!"
A dull rumbling sound penetrated the entire underground chamber, three thousand meters below the surface.
Lu Li's spiritual platform Falling Firmament trembled violently.
"This is... the demon core of the Azure Nether Mystic Crow Immortal Venerable giving back to his spirit!"
Sensing this sudden change, Lu Li's eyes snapped open.
Over the years, as he broke through to the Earth Immortal, his cultivation never stopped.
Falling Firmament relentlessly absorbed the remains of the Immortal Venerable.
Sure enough, in just over two hundred years, he is about to break through to the Second Turn of Earth Immortal.
Even other immortals might not be able to achieve this speed in hundreds of thousands of years!
Furthermore, Lu Li could sense that after this breakthrough, Azure Nether Mystic Crow Immortal Venerable's demon core had only been consumed by one-tenth.
The remaining amount is estimated to be enough for him to absorb for a long time.
And Falling Firmament trembled.
A vast stream of pure, almost liquid immortal energy, like a waterfall cascading from the heavens, surged wildly into Lu Li's limbs and bones.
Centuries of accumulated experience are fully realized in this one second.
The Law Power within Lu Li's body surged at an alarming rate.
The long-stagnant cultivation level was as fragile as paper in the face of the raging immortal energy.
"Click."
The invisible shackles within his body were forcibly shattered.
Second-Turn Earth Immortal!
This was accompanied by a leap in Lu Li's realm.
The Dragon-Rising Blessed Land within his body instantly surged with a colossal wave!
When Earth Immortal breaks through to the next level, the Blessed Land will inevitably undergo changes and its spiritual essence will increase.
Inside the Blessed Land, the earth rumbled.
The mountain range stretches for thousands of miles, like a dragon turning over in the earth, with towering peaks rising tens of thousands of feet from the flat land.
Spiritual rain descended from the sky, and countless rays of purple-blue Heavenly Dao light emerged in the void.
All the creatures within the Blessed Land knelt on the ground in terror.
The Nascent Soul Ancestors and Spirit Transformation Heavenly Lords of various sects broke through their seclusion and emerged.
They stared in horror at the churning, world-destroying thunderclouds at the top of the sky.
"Is it the wrath of Heavenly Dao? Or the descent of an immortal?"
"This oppressive force... it's going to shatter my nascent Nascent Soul!"
Countless cultivators trembled in fear.
A real-life enclosed room.
Lu Li's aura surged powerfully.
His Daoist robes fluttered without wind, and his eyes reflected the earth-shattering landscape within the Blessed Land.
"This breakthrough came at just the right time."
Lu Li a deep breath.
There was no trace of panic on his face.
Instead, a hint of cold, calculating cunning appeared on his face.
Taking advantage of the global upheaval caused by breaking through the barrier, they put on a complete show.
Is there any more natural celestial phenomenon than this?
The next moment.
His slight slump directly connected with the gleaming silver Rubik's Cube in his palm.
The immense Law Power within his body poured into it without reservation.
Using the immense power of heaven and earth during Earth Immortal's breakthrough, countless streams of light were refined in reverse.
"Disperse!"
With a thought, Lu Li's immense divine consciousness pierced through the barrier between reality and the Blessed Land.
Dragon-Rising Blessed Land.
Just when hundreds of billions of living beings thought that the world was about to be destroyed.
Above the sky, the endless rolling purple lightning suddenly froze.
Then, the sky split open.
A crack that defies description pierced the entire sky.
Deep within the cracks, there were no destructive gales.
Instead, it exudes an ancient, desolate, and extremely grand aura.
Countless ancient bronze-colored points of light, carrying tiny, silvery-white sparks.
Like a meteor shower that covered the entire world, it roared down from the heavens!
Accompanying the meteor shower was a majestic, grand, and ancient sound that seemed to have traversed countless ages.
It resonated deep within the Divine Soul of all living beings.
"The Primordial Chaos shattered, the Heavenly Dao was broken, and the Great Void Immortal Realm descended to the mortal world..."
"Anyone who obtains a fragment of the Heavenly Dao can enter the Great Void with a drop of their blood, defying fate and vying for the supreme Dao Fruit!"
