Originally, in his soul form, he didn't need to return to Blue Star. He could have gone to another world space, found someone to possess, and quickly become a powerhouse again. Living for tens of thousands of years would have been no problem.
But he chose to exhaust his cultivation from this life to find someone who could save Blue Star. Fortunately, he found the right person.
Finally, with the last remnants of his soul, he replaced the system ruler of the Heavenly Dao world, becoming forever trapped within the program. Although this program was the highest intelligence of the first universe, it was ultimately inanimate.
He became the god of the Heavenly Dao world, but he could no longer move in reality. He couldn't even communicate with Chu Tian through telepathy in reality, which was why they had lost contact for so long.
"Seeing you grow so quickly, I suddenly want to change the plan!" Dao Tian directly stated his thoughts.
"Don't talk about plans yet. Tell me, is there anything you personally want to do but can't?" Chu Tian interrupted him.
Dao Tian was silent for a moment. "There are two things!" he said slowly.
Chu Tian's spirits immediately lifted. This old man had done so much for him; it was time for her to repay him.
"First... I want to drink alcohol! This is impossible! Second... help me rescue my old brothers. They are trapped in the Abyss of Death in the Void God Realm. They should still be alive, right?"
After he said these two things, Chu Tian's brow twitched. He secretly admired this old man, who truly never thought of himself.
"Tell me your plan!" Chu Tian knew that to fulfill the second request, he had to defeat the Void God Realm.
"I just said it. Your growth has completely exceeded my expectations. I was originally executing the second plan because I felt the first plan was impossible to complete. However, now, I see hope!" Dao Tian paused. Chu Tian didn't interrupt.
After a while, Dao Tian continued, "My original intention was defense. But as you know, Blue Star's spatial barrier laws are much weaker. If it's just defense, and the battlefield is set here, the final outcome might be the entire space shattering. Even if we drive away the Void God Realm, this living space will no longer be suitable for humans, or any living beings!"
Chu Tian nodded at this. "Indeed, the 8th reincarnation was when something like this happened. The entire Blue Star was destroyed, and no life could survive. That's why I transferred all the souls and living people to the Yin-Yang Realm. This time, the plan indeed needs to change... Defense can only be temporary! Even if we repel them this time, they will come again for the second, third, fourth, and infinite harassments. Your plan A, you don't intend to counterattack the Void God Realm, do you?"
Chu Tian's eyes lit up. He had the same idea, but no good plan. After all, he was not familiar with the Void God Realm. Since this old man Dao Tian had a plan and had been planning for so long, he should listen to his opinion.
"Haha, it seems our thoughts align," Dao Tian laughed, hearing Chu Tian's intent.
"Old man, stop being coy, hurry up and say it!" Chu Tian urged.
"You little brat!" Dao Tian cursed with a laugh, but then he revealed his plan.
"Step one, you must first awaken the Great Will of the Pi Universe and gain its help to move the entire universe closer to the Void God Domain. Then, we will mobilize all living beings from Blue Star and the remaining other universes... to invade the Void God Domain, making the battlefield..."
"Wait..." Dao Tian said, and Chu Tian suddenly interrupted.
"Hmm?" Dao Tian asked.
"The Will of the Great Universe!!! Your plan, from the very first step, is impossible to achieve. What a joke?" Chu Tian's expression turned grim. At his current cultivation level, he knew what the Will of the Great Universe was.
The Will of the Great Universe followed the Dao, acting naturally. In simple terms, it didn't interfere, letting the entire world develop as it pleased. Whether it survived or was destroyed was all the same to it. It wouldn't intervene in anything. Even if it were to be destroyed, it would accept it calmly.
Also, where was the Will of the Great Universe? No one could detect it. It might be watching you like the Eye of Heaven, or it might be sleeping for eons.
"That's why I said this plan is impossible to realize. But... I now feel that you can! Don't you think many things about you are extraordinary?" Dao Tian said slowly. Chu Tian fell into contemplation.
Indeed, though his current body on Blue Star was in his early twenties, he had spent 9,000 years in the Yin-Yang Realm. Many bizarre things had happened. The simplest example was when someone wanted to take him as a disciple. If he had agreed, a divine annihilation lightning tribulation would have descended, killing his master. In his 9,000 years in the Yin-Yang Realm, he had used this trick to kill many powerful figures. This was very likely the Will of the Great Universe at play.
However, the Will of the Great Universe had never contacted him, nor could he contact it. Every time it appeared, Chu Tian would indeed feel a change in the heavens and earth, a strange aura he could sense but not capture. That strange aura was like a gentle breeze, arriving with the wind and leaving with the wind, leaving no trace.
"Then tell me, if I can find it, how can I get it to help us?" Chu Tian asked Dao Tian, thinking of this.
"I've heard that the Great Universe can evolve! Just like the Void God Realm, it devours other universes to evolve itself, which is why it's so powerful. In other words... the Great Universe is not without its own will. Perhaps... it doesn't want to sit idly by and wait for destruction!"
His meaning was clear: Chu Tian's appearance had seemingly stirred the Will of the Great Universe. Everything it had done to him was to help Chu Tian grow, and what had Chu Tian grown into? Wasn't it to fight the Void God Realm? Since it could help Chu Tian grow, it meant the Will of the Great Universe wanted Chu Tian to fight the Void God Realm; it didn't want to be destroyed.
"You mean..." Chu Tian's eyes suddenly brightened.
"Hmm... maybe it's by your side!" Dao Tian said casually.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener took it to heart. Chu Tian remembered this statement. He felt Dao Tian made a lot of sense. Perhaps the Will of the Great Universe had already transformed into human form or some other living being, and was by his side, helping him.
Suddenly, one person flashed through his mind. But he shook his head, "No way?" However, he felt that this person was very likely the manifestation of the Will of the Great Universe, or perhaps, he himself had inherited the Will of the Great Universe. Thinking of this, he felt a little more confident in Dao Tian's Plan A.
