Chapter 627 Who in this world can escape death?
As light and shadow shift, the world that appears this time is on the surface a normal modern city, but many things that shouldn't be there can be vaguely seen moving in the shadows on the streets.
There are no gods or demons in this world, only an omnipresent, pervasive sense of eeriness and madness that fills every corner of the world.
This is a world full of eeriness.
The world order continues to collapse, and strange and supernatural things keep resurfacing in various places, with bizarre artifacts emerging one after another.
In this world, there are no cultivation methods or cultivation realms. If you want to survive and become stronger, there is only one way: to understand the various strange rules, then control them, and finally become a master of strangeness.
The power of a master of strange creatures is strongly related to the strange creatures they control.
"The structure of this world is unique and interesting; it's very different from ordinary worlds."
Jiang Hao has seen many worlds, but generally speaking, most worlds are just different in their cultivation methods, but they all lead to the same goal: to cultivate step by step.
Unlike this world, where mortals directly attempt to control the rules—yes, the rules, these strange phenomena are the rules of this world.
The strangeness of this world is similar to that of demons in other worlds who possess rule-based abilities, except that demons generally have their own consciousness, while the strangeness basically does not, and everything is done according to the rules.
"This world is becoming stronger very quickly, but the hidden dangers are too great."
For an ordinary person to become a Demon Tamer is to instantly become a powerful being who can control the rules. What a huge leap that is! It's like ascending to heaven in one step, just like the elixir of immortality in myths and legends.
Unfortunately, this method of becoming stronger hides a fatal hidden danger.
Every time he uses his power, his soul is strangely eroded. When the erosion accumulates to a certain extent, he will be completely transformed into a monster.
Jiang Hao felt a pang of emotion. "This strange cultivation method that relies on external forces is like drinking poison to quench thirst. The stronger the power, the greater the risk of being corrupted and mutated. It's like walking on the edge of a cliff; a slight misstep and you're doomed."
Although the system of this world is novel, the entire cultivation process is accompanied by the torment of life, death, and inner demons.
This world is filled with a series of bizarre and unsolvable events, constantly tearing apart people's cognition and reason.
"No wonder they say that the supernatural cannot be destroyed; the only thing that can deal with the supernatural is the supernatural itself."
The bizarre is the rule of this world, and since there are no invincible cultivators or anyone who can change the rules of this world, it cannot be eliminated.
"This world fits the description of the world that netizens from my previous life said should never be traveled to."
For ordinary people in this world, it's too unsafe. You never know when a strange event will happen, and if an ordinary person gets caught up in a strange event, it's almost impossible for them to survive.
And the death will be very painful.
Therefore, for the strong in this world, the most painful thing is never physical pain, but the long, fragmented, and endless mental torture.
It tears apart rationality little by little, subverts cognition little by little, and tempers the human heart repeatedly amidst endless bizarreness and madness.
Those who can persevere through countless trials and tribulations have forged an iron will in their hearts.
Jiang Hao pondered this quietly for a long time, a sense of curiosity and approval rising in his heart.
In all the myriad realms, most people are naturally afraid of the unknown and flee from the strange. This is a basic instinct of living beings and is quite normal.
But those who walk this world have cultivated the most precious quality: their true nature.
Even if we cannot understand the bizarre reality, cannot see through the truth of the rules, and even if our rationality is constantly eroded and our cognition is constantly overturned, we will not back down or give up.
This composure and true self surpass many of the world's so-called strongmen.
"I can go and see this world sometime, and the strange origins of this world are quite interesting."
There was no other way; the Heavenly Emperor loved all people, and as the Heavenly Emperor, Jiang Hao had an inescapable duty to save all realms.
Jiang Hao then moved on to the next one.
A thick fog once again enveloped the area, and a mysterious world, full of intricate mysteries and strict rules, slowly unfolded.
A rich, mysterious aura flows between heaven and earth, with countless rules intertwined and forming a complete, closed-loop cultivation system.
Jiang Hao carefully analyzed the advancement path of this world, and his understanding became clearer and clearer.
"The foundation of magic potions lies in upholding the law, and advancement through the ranks is based on evidence and justification at every step."
"Starting from the ninth level of the mortal sequence, one progresses step by step until reaching the highest level of the zero sequence."
"Every advancement through medication is a high-stakes gamble that puts reason and life at risk, and every sequence of identities corresponds to strict rules of conduct."
Only by adhering to one's true self and following the rules of the role can one steadily progress. A slight deviation or delusion will lead to loss of control and madness, resulting in complete descent into darkness.
"Original substance, extraordinary characteristics, contamination, out of control..."
Jiang Hao's gaze became focused.
"A potion-playing system, huh? That's interesting."
Jiang Hao recalled the ritual chants performed by the high-ranking beings of this world, and his heart was filled with emotion.
What's rare about this world is that there are more than twenty extraordinary paths.
Melee combat, illusion, prophecy, necromancy, elemental manipulation, rule deception, mind control, etc.
Moreover, the system is perfectly self-consistent, with each part logically linked. The formulas, rules, ranks, and powers correspond one-to-one, without any loopholes, defects, or conflicts.
"Indeed, different worlds will always have different characteristics."
This world is clearly different from the traditional cultivation world's breakthrough model, which involves gradual accumulation and natural progression.
Jiang Hao made his own assessment in his heart.
The person who created this system of rules has reached the pinnacle of understanding of mystery, human nature, and order.
"However, this world has many shortcomings, especially the fact that the combat power of the Zero series was very weak in all aspects, and the combat power of the previous series has not changed or improved much."
Jiang Hao glanced at it and immediately noticed the flaws in this world's cultivation methods.
Promotions are extremely brutal, with cutthroat competition for resources leading to annihilation.
Potion ingredients can only be obtained by killing extraordinary beings or mythical creatures of the same sequence. To advance, one must hunt down one's own kind. High-sequence characteristics are extremely rare, often leading to wars of gods or battles that destroy nations.
The risk of getting out of control is high; the more powerful it is, the more insane it becomes.
Divinity permanently erodes humanity; impersonation can only alleviate the problem, not eradicate it. Angels and true gods both require a large number of mortals to anchor them with faith. Once the number of believers decreases sharply, they will immediately become distorted and insane.
Promotion ceremonies have an extremely high mortality rate.
The mid-to-high sequence rituals require sacrificing living beings, being in dire straits, and facing the corruption of evil gods. Many extraordinary individuals do not die in battle, but die during the advancement rituals.
The path to destiny is bound to it and is difficult to change.
Once a certain sequence potion is ingested, one can only follow that path for life. Forcibly fusing other pathways will cause the user to collapse. Only the three pathways of homologous essence can be fused later.
There is no solution to external contamination, and the upper limit is suppressed by external gods.
The corruption of Outer Gods and Ancient Powers beyond the Astral Plane is irreversible. Even if the Series I is observed, it will slowly decay. There are naturally stronger extraterrestrial enemies on the cosmic level.
Extremely dependent on external resources: combat, advancement, and self-preservation all require potions, sealing artifacts, ritual items, and spiritual materials. Without these, combat power at the same level will be greatly reduced.
"However, although it has many drawbacks, it also has advantages. We can take a look at the advantages of the cultivation methods in this world."
This method of playing with magic potions is enough to be incorporated into his own Dao Fruit reference system to make up for some shortcomings. Jiang Hao likes to learn from others' strengths and make up for his own weaknesses.
"Next one."
Jiang Hao then looked at the next one.
"Who in this world can escape death? No matter how beautiful or talented you are, you may be the most stunning woman in the world!"
With a light tap of his fingertip, Jiang Hao caused the light and shadow to slowly shift, unfolding a vast and tragic world, a world of eternal rise and fall, before his eyes.
This is a very special world.
This world is different from ordinary cultivation worlds that only care about personal immortality and carefree living; it carries the blood and tears of the entire human race's ancient history.
This is a world teeming with powerful figures and constantly embroiled in great battles; it is a tragic world.
