Chapter 565 - 561: Karmic Surge

"...!" Wei Wuyin stared at his right arm for a very, very long time before he forcefully moved his eyes away, closing them as he calmed his internal breathing and regulated his shock.

After some mental calculations, Wei Wuyin discovered that his Karmic Luck Value had leapt 15,700 in value, 15,699.4 to be exact. The first Calamity had only given him an infusion 490.1 Karmic Luck Value, but the Second Calamity had given him over ten thousand?!

He didn't know if this was high for overcoming the Second Calamity or if this was average, but he felt that this wasn't normal. Yuan Longshi might've used his Karmic Luck before it was plundered, but his cultivation wasn't high enough to suggest he had anything more than two thousand at most.

But after he reached this line of thought, he realized how little he knew of the legitimate value of a Karmic Luck, be it 0.1 or 10,000. Yuan Longshi's Yin-Yang Dragon Souls and Xue Yifei's lineage with the Bloodforge Emperor might have cost him ten thousand or a hundred..

Even when he considered that 0.1 Karmic Luck led to him gaining an Essence Stone prior to the Qi Condensation Realm, and all the other expressions of Karmic Luck, he couldn't gather a clear estimation.

That being said, what he did know was that the higher the value, the greater the ambient influence that the Heavenly Daos will exert in your favor. If you possess enough, it could even twist time and space and give you a second chance at life. He'll have to wait to see if his Karmic Luck Value will be used in a beneficial manner.

Wei Wuyin faintly smiled with elation. Regardless of the uncertainties, he was extremely satisfied with this gain. It was then that he felt a familiar sound echo through his mind, preceding a piercing pain.

Ohn!

Karmic Luck Value: 16,667.0 → 15,348.2.

First Calamity: Survived - 7/7.

Second Calamity: Claimed - 1/1.

Third Calamity: Suppressed - 49 Years.

"Over a thousand?" Wei Wuyin hadn't expected that his Karmic Luck Value would be activated at this moment, but a bright light of hope birthed within his heart. With the ruin of the starfield, was it possible that the Heavenly Daos were intervening to halt it due to his high karmic luck value?

However, when he felt the instigating awareness of the Heavenly Daos, it alluded to him to do nothing.

That's right.

Do nothing.

After feeling out the purpose again, as if thoroughly mistaken, he found out that this Karmic Luck Value felt a little spread out. When he thought about this, he used his Eye of Truth yet the outcome of the starfield, its inevitable trend, was still destruction.

Clenching his fist, he felt a hesitation emerge in his heart. Could the Heavenly Daos be aware of his presence? That it was using this opportunity to kill him off? But after inspecting the Bloodline of Sin tattoo, he felt that was extremely unlikely. The Heavenly Daos was blinded by it, and he did nothing that could've revealed his status as an Inheritor of Sin.

There was only one possibility: the Heavenly Daos were working its influence to alter certain events. In what way? He wasn't certain, but it would be beneficial to him. This comforted him until he felt it.

The eerily strange feeling as before, similar to when Lin Ming received the help of the Heavenly Daos to become a Chosen or when the Temporal Reincarnator first emerged! It instilled a restlessness within his heart, yet this restlessness vanished as quickly as it emerged.

He glanced at the Bloodline of Sin tattoo, realizing that the restlessness was a product of the Bloodline of Sin reacting to the influx of karmic luck being consumed. °Did it vanish because it belongs to me?° While he thought this, he felt that the flow of fortune was divided and vast.

After a thought, he deeply frowned. "Why do I feel as if this fortune isn't mine to have? Is it my companions? Those linked to my Karmic Fate?"

There was an instance where Bai Lin received fortune on his behalf, consuming a Golden Phoenix Fruit and awakening her dormant Phoenix Bloodline. Da Shan had been grasped by Wang Yutian and given a cultivation opportunity that others would die for. She elevated two entire phases in less than three years.

He was well-aware that his karmic luck would influence others, so he wasn't that surprised.

Yet the Heavenly Daos sent him an influential surge to do nothing in the face of the starfield's ruin. Furthermore, karmic luck that seemed only slightly less than Lin Ming's own usage of value had been used on others around him. This might not be limited to one person.

To add, the karmic surge that he felt meant that Lin Ming had used roughly the same amount of Karmic Luck Value to become a Chosen, and he now had an initial measurement of Karmic Luck Value.

"..."

After a long moment of silence, Wei Wuyin brought out Wang Yutian's consciousness that remained in the chandelier. "I have a question."

Wang Yutian had been quietly watching as Wei Wuyin killed Long Chen and then left, exploding his body and obtaining the Seed of Law, likely a treasure he had no idea how to use, and then he shouted, screamed, and laughed. He seemed almost delirious with joy.

He remained amused watching this. Was that Long Chen person truly that loathsome that his death could evoke a wide-range of flamboyant emotions from Wei Wuyin? Well, he did possess a Seed of Law, so it made sense. To not rain on Wei Wuyin's parade, he remained silent, but seeing Wei Wuyin bring him out, he happily reacted.

"What's your question?"

"Is there some way to transport a large portion of people to other starfields?" Wei Wuyin asked.

"How large?"

"An entire starfield size. Is that possible?"

Wang Yutian didn't have to think long for that, "An Ascended at the Soul of Mysticism Phase couldn't, but a Demi-Mortal Lord Phase could."

"..." Wei Wuyin was silent as he was confused. Soul of Mysticism Phase? Demi-Mortal Lord Phase? What? Who?

"You...don't know?" Wang Yutian was taken aback by Wei Wuyin's notable confusion. He had assumed that Wei Wuyin was fully aware of the Mystic Ascendant Realm Stages.

"I don't. Please enlighten me," a thirst for knowledge and expansion of his horizon emerged. Wei Wuyin had been almost entirely unaware of the Mystic Ascendant Realm, referring to them by first or second stages, but he didn't know about their names or how to reach it.

Wang Yutian thought for a moment and then explained, "The Mystic Ascendant Realm exceeds the Mortal Limits, and it is divided into seven stages, unlike the Mortal Realms which are divided into nine stages, from the Foundation Establishment, Qi Condensation, and Astral Core Realm…

Wang Yutian paused, and then clarified: "No, that's not entirely true. The Mystic Ascendant Realm is divided into Nine Stages of Mysticism, but it's hard to count the Initial Stage and the Pinnacle Stage."

"Oh?" Wei Wuyin was confused by this explanation, but thoroughly intrigued. He had been so drawn by this topic that he forgot about his original question, only wanting to learn more about the realm that might contain the Realm of Sages!

"Mhm. The first stage is referred to as the Mystic Star Phase, but in most cultivation societies, its considered the Tenth Stage of the Astral Core Realm, not the First Stage of the Mystic Ascendant Realm."

"Tenth Stage? Why?"

"The Mystic Star Phase, the so-called First Stage of the Mystic Ascendant Realm or Tenth Stage of the Astral Core Realm, is the result of failure. A failure to ascend." Wang Yutian revealed with a wisp of disdain that he couldn't contain.
