Chapter 1425: Law of Nature

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

After the party, Su Qingling took Zhang Ruochen to the library of Tongyou Saint Domain and took books from the shelf.

“‘Hell Luosha Race.'”

“‘Merits Battle and Merits.'”

Su Qingling was wearing a long blue robe, covered with a light fragrance. She was standing under the shelf, and she clapped her hands and stared at Zhang Ruochen.

“Luosha race is one of the three lower races from Heaven World. They can get stronger and stronger by just eating other creatures, and human flesh and blood are the best to them.”

“Males in Luosha race look horrendous, but they’re incredibly strong. As for the females, they’re ethereal, and if a monk isn’t careful enough, he’ll be tempted and killed.”

Zhang Ruochen had enough mind power to immediately finish reading ‘Hell Luosha Race’ in its entirety.

And then, Zhang Ruochen started to read ‘Merits Battle and Merits.’

The battle between Heaven World and Hell World was called a Merits Battle.

The more monks from Hell World a monk from Heaven World killed, the more merits he and the field he belonged to won.

The more merits a field earned, the higher it would be ranked on ‘Thousand Fields Merits Rank,’ and it would never become the battlefield in the fights against Hell World.

Su Qingling said, “When a large field is established and designated to be the battlefield, there’re two stages.

“For example, when Zuling Field is chosen to be the battlefield, it’ll go through the first stage called primary battlefield stage.

“At this stage, the supreme saints of each side will have the battle outside the domain, and the armies led by saint kings will battle inside the large field.

“The Luosha armies from Hell World want to eat the flesh and blood and seize the resources in Zuling Field.

“As for the armies from Heaven World, they want to kill as many creatures of Luosha race as possible to earn merits. And the monks from Zuling Field want to protect their own large field.”

Zhang Ruochen asked, “Why do the supreme saints fight outside the domain instead of the large field?”

Su Qingling chuckled and said, “The supreme saints have tremendous power. Imagine a group of supreme saints going all out in Zuling Field. It’ll only take a couple months for them to turn Zuling Field into ruins.

“Then Luosha race can’t get the flesh and valuables they want, while Zuling Field will lose billions of lives. It’s just the same as fighting in a lifeless astral domain then.

“There’s no point in doing that since it’s a lose-lose.

“Inside the large field is the battlefield for creatures under supreme saints.”

Zhang Ruochen felt that Heaven World was doing this to deliberately sacrifice weak fields like Zuling Field. “Why doesn’t Heaven World fight back against Hell World. Why didn’t it just start a War of Gods with Hell World?”

Su Qingling sighed and said, “If Heaven World were stronger than Hell World, it would’ve done it a long time ago instead of giving free rein to Hell World.”

“As for a War of Gods, it happened once before.”

“It was a hundred thousand years ago, and the War of Gods swept through the entire universe, killing more than half the Gods from Heaven World and annihilating over one thousand large fields. Hell World also suffered a huge blow.

“It’s been a hundred thousand years, and neither has fully recovered from that yet, so nobody wants to initiate a War of Gods.”

Zhang Ruochen was rendered speechless, as he felt pathetic.

He now understood better what Moon Goddess had said. The reality was brutal, and everyone was just a puppet. If he wanted to protect his family, friends, and loved ones, the only thing he could do was to make himself stronger.

Su Qingling said, “Let me tell you about the second stage of the battle, the Apocalyptic Stage.

“At this stage, the entire large field has crumbled, and all the valuables saint kings are interested in have been seized. Even the space structure of the large field becomes extremely unstable and can’t handle the power of saint kings anymore.

“By then, saint kings of both sides will exit the battlefield. Only saints and half saints remain to rob the resources in the large field.”

Zhang Ruochen clenched his fist and he could feel that his muscles were getting tense. He asked, “Why did they have to designate a large field to be the battlefield? Why did the Gods from Heaven World do that? Don’t they think it’s too cruel?”

Su Qingling said, “They have no other options! Even if they don’t do it, Hell World will still keep attacking the subsidiary fields of Heaven World, leading to deaths and destruction. It’s better for them to designate a place to be the battlefield, which can actually mitigate the losses.

“Heaven World and Hell World fought each other randomly at the beginning, and after tens of thousands of years, they’ve come to a tacit agreement like this.

“Certainly, this is a law of nature as the large fields chosen to be battlefields are the weakest fields with the least potential.

“The strong can decide the fate of the weak. This is the rule in the entire universe.”

It was cruel and realistic, but it was the truth.

Zhang Ruochen calmed down and said, “Now that the battlefield has been opened, and there’ll be billions of lives lost, there’ll be a result of the battle, won’t there?”

Su Qingling nodded and said, “Indeed, but Heaven World has always lost more often than it’s won. For example, we’re in the western universe, and there’re always ten battlefields. Every time a field is destroyed, there’ll be another one.

“Heaven World usually only wins three battles out of ten, and the so-called victory only means Heaven World lost fewer monks than Hell World.”

Having asked the necessary questions, Zhang Ruochen read all the relevant books and left the library.

All the saints who participated in the Thousand Saints Meeting stayed in Tongyou Saint Domain, and each saint had their own refining mansion.

Zhang Ruochen came to the mansion that belonged to him, and a half saint was already waiting outside. He bowed at Zhang Ruochen and said, “Lord Saint, my lord asked me to tell you that the world treasury of Guanghan Field will be opened in three days. As the priest of the Saint Merits Battle, you can get into the treasury first and pick any three valuables you want.”

“Who’s your lord?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“Your friend, the heir of the Saint Merits Battle,” the half saint said in a revering way.

Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, “Remind me in three days.”

Zhang Ruochen took out the Ning True Saint Dew and entered the refining mansion. He drank it and started to refine and absorb it.

After three days, Zhang Ruochen had successfully refined three hundred drops of Ning True Saint Dew, and his cultivation had improved again.

He was almost at the middle level of the Heaven Pass Realm.

“Why is time so pressuring?”

If Zhang Ruochen had enough time, he could use the ten thousand drops of Ning True Saint Dew to become a true saint.

Once he became a true saint, he wouldn’t be afraid of anyone under saint kings.

However, he didn’t have that much time now.

Zhang Ruochen recalled ‘time formation,’ but he shook his head.

Time formation was so abstruse that he wouldn’t be able to comprehend it now.

Zhang Ruochen heard Blackie transmitting voices to him. “Zhang Ruochen, I’ve arrived outside your refining mansion with that girl Mu. Come out now.”

Zhang Ruochen frowned, stopped refining and walked out of the mansion, and he saw Mu Lingxi and Blackie outside.

“Pleasantly surprised to see us?”

Blackie jumped about and walked to the mansion.

Zhang Ruochen grabbed its wing and dragged it out. He said, “Why are you guys here?”

Mu Lingxi said, “I’m going to the merits battle.”

“Are you kidding? No way you’re going there with your cultivation,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Mu Lingxi said, “What about my cultivation? I’m already a mid-class saint, and I can fight even a Xuanhuang saint. Why’re you talking like I can’t go to the battlefield? Also, all the saints from Guanghan Field need to go to the Merits Battlefield, including me.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “Don’t you know how dangerous the Merits Battlefield is? Perhaps half of us will die there, and we’ll be eaten by the saints from Luosha. There’s even a chance that all of us die.”

“Then why’re you going?” Mu Lingxi asked.

“I don’t have a choice,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Zhang Ruochen pinched his fingers, and then, he grabbed Mu Lingxi’s hands and dragged her toward Moon Goddess Mountain. “Follow me to Moon Goddess and ask her to disqualify you. There’s no way I’m letting you go to the Merits Battlefield.”

Zhang Ruochen stopped after taking only three steps forward. He looked around and found that everything around him disappeared as an invisible force covered the sky and land.

Mu Lingxi looked ahead in a daze.

Moon Goddess showed up right outside Zhang Ruochen’s refining cave. She looked ethereally beautiful, and her body was curved perfectly as if she didn’t belong to this world.

Moon Goddess raised her hand, and white light spots emerged around her palm.

Whoosh!

The light spots flew toward Mu Lingxi and merged with her body.

Mu Lingxi’s cultivation surged until she reached Absolute Ground Realm.

Moon Goddess said to Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingxi, “Zhang Ruochen, this is all I can do. Mu Lingxi better go to Zuling Field. If she’s lucky, she might get a nice opportunity.”

Zhang Ruochen stared at Moon Goddess and said, “What opportunity?”

“Go read the records about Zuling Field. You’ll find your answer there.”

Moon Goddess vanished after finishing her last word.

Meanwhile, the scene around them became visible again.
