I Might Be A Fake Cultivator - Chapter 2005
Chapter 2005: The Supreme Treasure of the Heaven Crushing Sect
An Lin officially joined the Heaven Crushing Sect, signed the heaven crushing contract, and swore his vows.
From his personal experience, he could verify that one could sign both a heaven mending contract and a heaven crushing contract.
An Lin wore a white heavenly disciple robe with black edges and stood at the most prominent location in the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace. He began to deliver an address, and all of the Heaven Crushing Sect members listened intently.
He was used to flexing at the Four Nine Immortal Sect, so he was an expert when it came to delivering rousing speeches. Soon, the entire atmosphere had been ignited, and bursts of enthusiastic cheers rang out.
As his speech progressed, the cheers from the Heaven Crushing Sect members grew louder and louder, and they became even more frenetic toward An Lin…
Cyril and Chen Chen both drew sharp intakes of breath upon seeing this.
The Heaven Crushing Sect did require fighting spirit, but wasn’t this a little too much? Why were they all shouting things like “An Lin is invincible” and “I love you, God An”?
The members of the sect appeared to be getting brainwashed. Cyril couldn’t help but wonder whether he had recruited a heavenly disciple or a master salesman.
One hour later, the rousing speech finally came to a conclusion.
An Lin exited the stage amid thunderous cheers and applause. He then arrived in a secret chamber before picking up an ancient scroll and observing it. After joining both the Heaven Crushing Sect and Heaven Mending Sect, he had gleaned many secrets and was now a lot more knowledgeable about the mending and the crushing of the heavens.
The ancient scroll he was currently observing was the supreme treasure of the Heaven Crushing Sect. This was a journal recording the destruction of the Ancient Tai Chu Realm! This journal detailed how the Ancient Tai Chu Realm came to destruction, as well as how the Heavenly Dao was destroyed.
This journal was extremely valuable for their cause.
However, there was only one thing An Lin didn’t understand.
Who could have written such a badass journal? He had asked Cyril about this, but even Cyril didn’t know the answer to that question. Cyril told him that this was something he had risked his life to retrieve from a destroyed sacrificial altar in the Ancient Tai Chu Realm. Even the name for this journal was coined by him.
This journal was most likely something left behind by a being that had transcended beyond heaven and earth after witnessing the destruction of the Ancient Tai Chu Realm.
An Lin looked at the strange symbols and images on the scroll, and he didn’t really understand anything at first sight. However, once he immersed himself, extremely shocking and realist images immediately began to appear in his mind.
These were terrifying images of heaven and earth being destroyed, and countless living beings being wiped out in the blink of an eye.
Following the destruction of the Heavenly Dao, everything was thrown into chaos. A series of inexplicable disasters began to appear. For example, in some areas, walking in the eastern direction would ensure one’s survival, while walking in the western direction would spell instant death. In some areas, one could rise into the sky from laughing, but those who felt sadness would instantly explode. Or, for example, in some areas, the genders of living beings began to interchange, and any physical contact between living beings of opposite genders would result in instant death.
Lethal bacteria began to spread, and disasters took place relentlessly.
All of the remaining living beings fell into chaos as heaven and earth gradually returned to nothingness.
Cultivators could only run or become stronger. However, due to the destruction of the Heavenly Dao, everyone’s cultivation path had been severed, As such, no one could progress or make breakthroughs and could only await death.
All mortal living beings were dead within a year.
Countless beautiful homes were quickly destroyed amid the anguished cries of countless living beings.
Death and destruction became a widespread sight to behold.
An Lin was completely immersed in these images, and he became more and more alarmed as he surveyed these scenes.
Wouldn’t the same thing happen to the Tai Chu Continent if its Heavenly Dao were to be destroyed?
The destruction of the Heavenly Dao began to reveal dao power nodes. These were locations where paths of energy intersected with one another and were the equivalent of acupoints in the human body. After careful comparison, An Lin discovered that these nodes were very similar to the nine hundred and ninety-nine heaven crushing pillars of light on the heaven crushing formation.
If the Heaven Crushing Sect succeeded in achieving its objective, then the images within this journal basically depicted the future of the Tai Chu Continent!
At the very end, a transcendent immortal tossed a ball of light into the distance. This ball of light was imbued with boundless hope, and it disappeared into the darkness.
An Lin returned to reality, and he appeared a little tired, but his eyes were extremely bright.
He made new observations and attained new enlightenment every time he observed this Ancient Tai Chu Realm destruction journal. These observations allowed him to improve his understanding of the heavens. Furthermore, perhaps this was due to his special constitution, but he found that he was seemingly able to observe the essence behind these images, as if he could extend a hand and reach the Heavenly Dao.
“There are three main steps to crushing the heavens. The first step is to create the formation and gather power, the second step is to crush the heavens, and the third step is to become the heavens. If the Heaven Crushing Sect reaches the second step first, then the Heaven Mending Sect would have failed…” An Lin sighed.
After joining the Heaven Crushing Sect, he now knew that they were currently completing the first step, which was setting up the formation and gathering power. Once sufficient power was gathered, it would be time to crush the heavens. According to the current estimated projections, it would take less than half a year to reach the second step.
“Time is quickly running out… How will the Heaven Mending Sect mend the heavens without my help? From our conversation, it appears that Nuwa doesn’t know why the power of darkness was able to repair itself…” An Lin fell into deep thought.
“You seem troubled, An Lin. Have you encountered some difficulties?”
A fine and delicate youth in linen garments made his way over to An Lin with a smile. His eyes were so clear and pure that they seemed capable of reflecting everything between heaven and earth.
It was fantastic news that An Lin was joining the Heaven Crushing Sect. As such, even the perpetually expressionless Chen Chen currently wore a smile on his face.
“Chen Chen…”
An Lin turned to the youth beside him and spoke in a hesitant voice.
“Is there something you can’t tell me?” Chen Chen smiled.
Chen Chen gave An Lin a very special sense of security. The images of them battling side by side resurfaced in his mind, and he finally let down his guard. “I don’t want to die. I won’t have to die if I become the Heavenly Dao, right?”
Chen Chen nodded. “If we successfully crush the heavens, I will do all I can to help you become the Heavenly Dao. You won’t die. Instead, you will be reincarnated!”
“You’re going to do everything you can to help me become the Heavenly Dao? Don’t you want to become the Heavenly Dao as well?” An Lin was feeling quite touched as he turned toward Chen Chen.
“No. Becoming the Heavenly Dao was never my intention. All I want is to make this world a better place. You are more suited to become the Heavenly Dao than I am, so I will do all I can to help you,” Chen Chen explained with an earnest expression.
Make this world a better place? These words would sound corny and pretentious coming from anyone else. However, Chen Chen made those words sound very convincing.
“Thank you, Chen Chen…”
“Why are you thanking me? We’re truly comrades now.”
“That’s right, and we’re great friends too!”
“Indeed we are.”
“Is Xue Yan your girlfriend?”
“…”
“Do good friends keep secrets like this from one another?”
“…”
“Tell me! Do you love her?
