Chapter 2317: Sacred Heaven Calendar, Part Two
"Level one means every action that will cause dramatic changes to the future. For example, if you go back to the past and kill Cang or Ye Zhaoxian, or find Zhou Di and tell him certain things, or maybe you try to set Cang or Ye Zhaoxian up."
"These things are impossible."
"When you try to do them, the Rules of Time and s.p.a.ce will stop you. You can"t resist it regardless of your cultivation level, so don"t even think about changing the future when you go back to the ancient era. It"s not possible," Xiang Yuan said.
Princess Miao Miao twisted her lips and said, "Seriously? How lame."
Xiang Yuan said with a smile, "However, it"s still possible to influence the future. Every word we say and every action we do when we go back to the ancient era might result in some difference to the future."
"These are considered level two and level three."
"Level two means certain things that will cause some changes to the future."
"Level three means things that will cause minor changes to the future."
"Every word you say and every action you do during the ancient era might trigger the level two or level three effects. Similarly, the Rules of Time and s.p.a.ce will stop you too, but the consequences aren"t as terrifying as level one."
"You may overwhelm the Rules of Time and s.p.a.ce with your cultivation to do what you want, but you will have to pay a certain price."
"If you trigger the level two effects five times, you will have to face a Tribulation of the Heavens and Earth or other forms of danger. If you trigger the level three effects twenty times, the same thing will happen."
Qin Nan started to have a clearer understanding.
It was similar to altering one"s destiny, as it was going against the Heavens" will to manipulate one"s fate. The person must suffer the consequences.
"These are everything we know for now. For many years, our tribe has insisted on using this method to achieve the Heaven Highness Realm. Our stance remains the same even after the G.o.d"s Breath Battlefield was established. The current era has declined too much. Only by going back to the ancient era will one become a superior Heaven Highness."
"It"s the only way for our tribe to regain our glory."
"Cultivator Qin Nan, what do you think?" Xiang Yuan gradually withdrew his smile.
In addition to him, another Ruler of Dao of the s.h.i.+dao Tribe, the Masters of Dao, and the rest of the members fixed their eyes on Qin Nan.
They had sacrificed too much blood and tears for the plan. If Qin Nan did not agree with them...
"Patriarch Xiang, it"s viable if the success rate is a little higher, but a chance of sixty percent based merely on your speculation, it"s still too risky!"
"If we can"t set a specific time, we will be wasting two years, or even four years! Besides, no one has ever achieved the Heaven Highness Realm with this method."
"I believe you are aware of our circ.u.mstances. In two years, Cang will surely achieve the Heaven Highness Realm. If we fall behind now..." Heaven Highness Linghuang said.
However, Qin Nan interrupted before he could finish, Senior Linghuang, I"ve decided. I"m going back to the ancient era."
Xiang Yuan and the others were startled. Xiang Yuan asked, "Are you sure?"
Heaven Highness Linghuang was dumbfounded. He immediately said, "Qin Nan, this isn"t a joke. If we bet on the wrong side, we are going to lose everything!"
Qin Nan rose to his feet and looked at the others. He said, "Fellow seniors, it"s our only choice. We might figure out a way to send me to the Middle Mysterious Realm in the Blue Heavens and forcibly achieve the Heaven Highness Realm in the G.o.d"s Breath Battlefield, but..."
"We still won"t beat Cang and Ye Zhaoxian."
"When the time comes, we can only guarantee our safety temporarily, but once Cang and Ye Zhaoxian grew stronger and achieve the Supreme Highness Realm, how are we going to stop them?"
Qin Nan"s gaze sharpened, "It was a bet when we decided to form an alliance, and now, we must place a bet again."
"The winner will take it all, and the loser will lose everything!"
"Place a bet...again?"
Heaven Highness Linghuang, Progenitor Mingchu, and everyone else were stunned.
"Hehe, you"re right. Linghuang, Cultivator Qin Nan is being fearless. How could we surrender to our fear?" Progenitor Mingchu smiled.
"Phew."
Heaven Highness Linghuang took a deep breath and said, "Then I won"t say anything. It"s up to you to make the decision."
Qin Nan bowed at them.
Heaven Highness Linghuang and the others were leading three Supreme Daoism factions. They had yet to receive any benefits after forming an alliance with him. They now found themselves in a dire situation, yet they were still willing to give him their full support and stick with him.
Whet4her they were left with no choice or they had other reasons in mind, Qin Nan was extremely grateful toward them.
"Senior, did we make ourselves clear?" Qin Nan turned to Xiang Yuan.
"HAHAHA, very well! From today onward, the s.h.i.+dao Tribe will join your alliance. We will give you all our resources too!" Xiang Yuan burst out laughing.
The rest of the tribe were overjoyed and relieved too.
"However, Cultivator Qin Nan, there"s one more thing to decide."
Xiang Yuan said, "I mentioned that the Stones of Time and s.p.a.ce we have left are only enough to send four people to the ancient era. We will take two of the spots. Is anyone from your side willing to go with you?"
The other Ruler of Dao of the s.h.i.+dao Tribe blurted out before Qin Nan could speak, "Brother, are you really going too? You are seriously injured. It will take you three years to recover from the injuries! Otherwise..."
Xiang Yuan flung his sleeves and said, "Three years? I just need seven days to recover half of my life force. That will be enough."
"Our tribe has declined too much. How many of our people have fallen?"
"I"m responsible for it as I"m the Patriarch. Even if there isn"t much hope, I would rather die trying to reclaim the glory of our tribe!"
