Eternal Life: My Millennia in the Jiaofang Division

"My lord, can the Holy Tree Mirror really prevent spiritual energy from drying up?"

Lord Mingxin asked worriedly.

"what you think?"

Zhao Mu made tea and poured a cup for Ming Xinjun.

"have no idea."

Lord Mingxin shook his head: "It stands to reason that the five masters personally took action, and the people chosen by destiny should be able to carry the destiny and prevent the depletion of spiritual energy."

"But my subordinates still have some understanding of the character of the five masters. Although these people are powerful, they do not have the same sense of responsibility as the gods in the world from generation to generation in history."

"Let alone asking them to dedicate themselves to all sentient beings, even if they can benefit all sentient beings, it will be very difficult."

"So I really can't believe that the destined person they selected can really prevent the depletion of spiritual energy."

"Haha, you know them quite well."

Zhao Mu chuckled and said: "That's right, they didn't prevent the spiritual energy from drying up, they just wanted to delay it."

"Postponed?" Mr. Mingxin frowned.

"That's right, it's postponed."

Zhao Mu took a sip of tea: "They just want to ensure that the world will not change drastically during their lifetime, so as to maintain their supreme status."

"As for whether the world will be destroyed after they die in the future, they don't care."

"So the Holy Tree Mirror is just a puppet created by them."

"I see."

Ming Xinjun suddenly realized: "Let me tell you, with the characters of the five of them, how could they take the initiative to find the destined person back then? It turned out that they wanted to control the destined person in their own hands."

Zhao Mu shook his head: "Actually, even if the five masters sincerely want to prevent the depletion of spiritual energy, in my opinion, it will be difficult for them to succeed."

"Why?" Mr. Mingxin was confused.

"Because this spiritual energy depletion is not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster."

"Man-made disaster? The Lord is saying that spiritual energy depletion is caused by man-made things. Who has such means?"

"God Lord."

"It's him?"

Lord Mingxin's face changed slightly: "Everyone in the world knows that the Divine Lord is the incarnation of one of the five great masters, but they still don't know which one it is."

"It can be seen that this god master is very scheming and is very good at hiding himself. If he really has evil intentions and destroys the plan of the five masters from within, he can really catch it."

"But why does the Lord of God cause spiritual energy to deplete? What good does it do to him? Without spiritual energy, wouldn't he be able to practice?"

"Actually, this is what I've been wondering about."

Zhao Mu frowned slightly: "According to the future I deduced, the purpose of the God Lord causing the spiritual energy to deplete is to swallow the spiritual energy of the world and force himself to the realm of a human god."

"But even if he breaks through the world of gods and faces a world with exhausted spiritual energy, he himself will soon dissipate and die."

"What's the use of this to him? Isn't it just to experience the feeling of stepping into the world of gods?"

Lord Mingxin thought thoughtfully after hearing this: "Perhaps he has a way to ensure his survival even if his spiritual energy is exhausted? For example... he also turns to Shinto?"

"I'm afraid only the Lord himself can answer this question."

Zhao Mu shook his head: "Okay, let Pindao handle the issue of the God Lord and the depletion of spiritual energy. Your and Luxianweng's mission is to control the demon clan in the Northern Territory."

"Yes, I understand."

Mr. Mingxin nodded and said: "Senior Lu Xianweng sent the Zhenshan Divine Turtle to recover. We just took this opportunity to communicate with each other and win over each other. All our plans are going smoothly."

"Well, very good, I'll leave the affairs of the Northern Territory to you. Next, Pindao will focus his energy on the five masters."

Zhao Mu raised his head and looked vaguely into the distance, which was the direction where the Black Blood Demonic Dragon and the Holy Tree Mirror had left.

…

The Purple Void Continent is divided into five major regions: southeast, northwest, and middle. Except for the central Death Demon Realm, many living beings live in the other four major regions.

The various major domains are separated by endless wastelands.

The area of ​​the Endless Wasteland is so large that it even far exceeds that of other major realms. Not only is the spiritual energy thin, but there are also various dangerous and desperate situations. People who are not well-trained enough will definitely die if they enter.

Even if a powerful monk ventures in, he will have to bear great risks.

Therefore, usually if monks want to go to other large areas, they usually choose to take a long way through the sea instead of stepping into the endless wasteland.

At this time, in the endless wasteland from the Northern Territory to the Divine Land of the Eastern Territory, the black-blooded dragon is flying with the Holy Tree Mirror...

No!

wrong!

At this time, it can no longer be said to be the Holy Tree Mirror, because this body is completely controlled by Zhao Mu.

Zhao Mu quietly followed the Black-blooded Demonic Dragon, while running the Kaimen Immortal Forbidden City at full strength, plundering the memories from the soul fragments in the Holy Tree Mirror, while surveying the vast endless wasteland.

Different from the vitality of the four major domains, the environment of the endless wasteland is simply like the end of the world.

Everywhere you look, you see dilapidated scenes caused by natural disasters.

Hot volcanoes erupt from time to time, and the flowing magma melts the surrounding rocks.

But in another place not far from the volcano, there is a huge frozen lake. The freezing temperature is as good as the volcano.

In the sky above the volcano and the glacial lake, there was a constant howling of strong winds. The rapidly blowing wind was as sharp as a knife, and gold and iron falling into it would be chopped into pieces in the blink of an eye.

Natural disasters are fine. Zhao Mu could feel the fierce breath that appeared and disappeared on the ground below from time to time as he flew along.

It seemed that the powerful undead wanted to choose someone to devour after death.

This is the Endless Wasteland, which is full of natural disasters and monsters. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a purgatory on earth.

Suddenly, the Black Blood Demon Dragon spoke: "You should have never been to this Endless Wasteland. How about it? Do you feel that the world here is very special and completely different from the four domains?"

"Yes, it is indeed different. It is simply two completely different worlds."

Zhao Mu nodded and said: "Master, only a powerful cultivator like you dares to step into such a terrible place, right?"

"It's not that there are no other cultivators coming in, but they are just very few."

The Black Blood Demon Dragon said: "In fact, even if we are masters, we rarely enter the Endless Wasteland if we are not in a hurry. After all, there are many things here that even we can't deal with."

"What?"

Zhao Mu was a little surprised.

This surprise was not pretended.

He asked in disbelief: "Master, there is something in this endless wasteland that can threaten you. How is this possible?"

"Nothing is impossible. Let's not talk about other threats. Let's talk about the souls in this endless wasteland."

The Black Blood Demon Dragon explained solemnly: "Many of the souls here died a long time ago."

"Although they are dead, their souls cannot be reincarnated. They can only drift alone in the endless wasteland. Finally, after tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years, they become extremely powerful."

"And that kind of power, sometimes even the master is powerless to resist, and can only run away."
