My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1243 - 1195: No One to Right the Overturned Heaven
Many years ago, when the Taiyan Sect first learned of the Calamity Transcendence Sect’s theory, Yishu, like most of the monks of Tai Yan Sect, absolutely sneered at it.
When tribulation approached, instead of actively seeking countermeasures, they chose to shrink back like turtles, placing hope on some vague and elusive savior. It was completely unfounded, an unpredictable variable.
However, as one of the Immortal Dao Ten Clans, inheriting teachings from the Tiandu Grandmaster, the lineage of the Calamity Transcendence Sect had already emerged in the times of remote antiquity. Its endurance over so many years meant that there was indeed some special rationale behind it.
It’s just that outsiders could not perceive the mysteries of the Calamity Transcendence Sect.
Today, when Yishu came to the Sacred Dynasty Daqi, which seemed to have popped out of a crack in the rocks, and saw many technologies that could rival the top echelons of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, and those new methods that were completely different from current cultivation practices, which could thoroughly overturn the groundwork laid by the Celestial Dharma Bearer in the Xuanhuang World—he couldn’t help but recall the words of the Calamity Transcendence Sect from those years.
At the time, the Great Calamity was just beginning to emerge. The core leaders of the Immortal Dao Ten Clans gathered to discuss potential strategies.
Each clan expressed their views, while only the Calamity Transcendence Sect maintained a very passive attitude.
"Everyone, the so-called inevitable is inescapable. If we could avoid it simply by struggling, then what kind of tribulation would it be?" The Sect Master of Calamity Transcendence Sect, Lu Chengheng, looked detached, as if it were none of his business.
"Is this the reason why your Calamity Transcendence Sect places those so-called World Watching Divine Eyes everywhere?"
The most irascible master of Undefined Prison, Xiahou Yan, looked displeased and retorted on the spot.
"Xiahou, you do not understand. This is a necessary method for awaiting the emergence of the Xuan Huang’s savior from calamity," Lu Chengheng stated indifferently.
"Bullshit savior of Xuan Huang. When tribulation strikes and all beings are extinguished, from where will this messiah jump out?" Xiahou was close to cursing outright.
"Are you questioning the legacy of the Grand Master?" With just one sentence, Lu Chengheng rendered Xiahou Yan speechless.
"There are still all of you," Lu Chengheng laughed, then added meaningfully, "The Xuanhuang World is not so easily destroyed. If there’s any part of the Immortal Cultivation World that can survive until the end within this Star Sea, then it must surely be our Xuan Huang."
Upon hearing these words, none of the leaders of the Ten Sects refuted.
After a brief silence, perhaps to appease everyone, Lu Chengheng succinctly explained, "The talk of transcending calamity isn’t without basis. Measure Disaster, Life, and Death, are all parts of the cycle of Heaven and Earth. Even the Great Calamity of the Immortal Realm might not be beyond the predictions of True Immortals."
"All of you are in a state of constant panic, but look at the Grand Master. Has He shown even the slightest disturbance?"
The previously silent leader of the Supreme Sect, Xuanji, finally spoke up, "The Grand Master’s achievements match creation itself, and even within the Immortal Ruins, He can walk unhindered. A catastrophe that could destroy the Xuanhuang World is of no concern to Him. We are different. Brother Lu, I will not stop you if you choose to withdraw from the world, but you cannot completely withhold your efforts in facing the tribulation."
Observing the unanimous gaze of those present, Lu Chengheng ultimately nodded, reaching a compromise.
However, Lu Chengheng’s last remark made everyone fall silent once again.
"One day, you’ll all see that our Calamity Transcendence Sect is right."
At this moment, transcending thousands of years, the collective consciousness of the Taiyan Sect, along with the body of Yishu, suddenly recalled Lu Chengheng’s words from back then.
After gaining a rudimentary understanding of the [Art of Self-Founded Cultivation], the Transformation Stone Mother introduced this variable into the future projections of the Xuanhuang World.
The originally clear future, as if encountering a chaotic storm, became blurred and unclear.

Even with the Stone Mother’s calculations that could be deemed almost divine, she became somewhat lost for the moment.
The Taiyan Sect too had once tried to predict new methods that could turn the system of Law Transmission upside down.
But...
Creating out of nothing, and future predictions based on existing data are not the same.
The Transformation Stone Mother determined there was indeed such a possibility. However, the probability was too small.
```
Even back then, Celestial Dharma Bearer had a smaller chance of surviving when surrounded by the Immortal Realm than now.
Besides the difficulty of creating the New New Method itself, more importantly, there was the pervasive influence of Celestial Dharma Bearer over the Xuanhuang World.
Just as Cultivators gradually forgave the calamities of Xuanhuang World, endlessly overlooking the terrain changes that had been occurring over the past millennia.
Proposing the New New Method was not just a display of personal creative power.
It was also wrestling with the influence of Law Transmission.
Therefore, in the deductions of Transformation Stone Mother, who was very clear about the present strength of Celestial Dharma Bearer, the probability of the New New Method emerging was naturally approaching zero.
Yet, far beyond the realms of possibility, against all odds, it happened.
In an unknown corner of the Xuanhuang World, adrift in the Void, within a power that had only recently emerged.
The New New Method had not only quietly appeared but had even developed to the Gold Core stage!
Truly earth-shattering, it even caused a momentary hesitation in the deductions of Transformation Stone Mother.
Because based on all known factors up to this point, there was no reason why the New New Method could have emerged at this time.
Only an extraordinary Xuanhuang Calamity Transcender, not accounted for in variables, could explain this.
Privately, the Ten Sects had discussed this Calamity Transcender of Xuanhuang.
And they reached an almost unanimous conclusion: if such a so-called Transcender really existed, they were either from outside Xuanhuang World or a reincarnation of a powerful being.
A local Cultivator, rising solely through personal strength to reverse the heavens’ collapse...
Was simply impossible.
No matter how talented, it wouldn’t suffice.
The environment of Xuanhuang World could no longer produce the necessary foundation to contest the Celestial Dharma Bearer.
"What is the origin of this Great Enthroned Faceless Saint Emperor?"
At this moment, Yishu, or rather the hearts of the Taiyan Sect, had utterly lost all underestimation.
Instead, they regarded the Sacred Dynasty Daqi as a force equal to, or even higher than their own Rank.
And indeed, they were seriously considering the possibility of forming an alliance with the Sacred Dynasty Daqi.
As one of the former rulers of the past Xuanhuang World, now compressed by Celestial Dharma Bearer’s Alliance of Thousands of Immortals to only Tai Xuan Small World, to say there wasn’t a hint of resentment within the Taiyan Sect was impossible.
Even though they no longer needed territories or resources, the grievances from being deprived of what they once held were still haunting the consciousness of Taiyan Sect, unremitting like a nightmare.
"The Previous Great Dao, the Supreme count sect, although outwardly contending with the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, has long since gone astray, no different from the running dogs of Law Transmission."
"But they must be like us, not fully submissive. What they lack is nothing but an opportunity."
And with the emergence of the Sacred Dynasty Daqi, especially the New New Method, the Taiyan Sect glimpsed that sliver of hope.
But after all, they are a sect that survived the Ancient Tribulations.
Any decision about their fate must be taken with extreme caution.
