Chapter 19 The Upcoming Calamity

　　Gu Mo spent five years observing the multiple future branches of the three territories before finally concluding his observations.

　　"I observed a total of 92 future branches in the other three territories, and I didn't find any signs of the end," Gu Mo thought, breathing a sigh of relief. "Clearly, this end is only targeting the Feng Yi Ninety-Seven Territory."

　　"I wonder what caused this end."

　　Gu Mo was also somewhat perplexed.

　　There was no helping it; high-dimensional space also contained all kinds of crises.

　　Eternal Realm high-dimensional life forms were nominally eternal, but in reality, their average lifespan was only about one abyss epoch. The owner of a relic that Xu Jingming had explored, 'Da Meng Ke' (Great Dreamer), was an extremely powerful Eternal Realm existence of the Heart Realm lineage, and he had only lived for half an abyss epoch.

　　A half-step into the Third Realm was already considered a very powerful existence in high-dimensional space, but being able to live for ten abyss epochs was considered a very long life.

　　"Is it a crisis naturally conceived in high-dimensional space, or a crisis brought about by the existence of the Third Realm?" Gu Mo pondered. A game by a Third Realm existence might be a catastrophe that affected countless living beings.

　　Gu Mo looked outside, through layers of obstacles, to the burly figure outside the door.

　　"Wu Ke," Gu Mo said.

　　Outside the mountain, the burly figure who was guarding the area heard the voice in his mind and immediately said respectfully, "Ancestor."

　　Gu Mo, following the threads of cause and effect, already understood some things that were happening outside: "I already know about Tu Tie Mu's matter."

　　"Ancestor, how should we handle it?" the burly figure asked respectfully.

　　Gu Mo said calmly, "The human Wu Ming is another future Eternal Realm existence of the human race, and he is also of the Heart Realm lineage. It's only normal for Tu Tie Mu to suffer a little when he encounters a future Eternal Realm existence of the human race."

　　"An Eternal Realm existence of the Heart Realm lineage?" the burly figure was very surprised. The Void God Race had not produced an 'Heart Realm lineage' Eternal Realm existence for many years.

　　Gu Mo didn't care.

　　Observing the future lines, seeing countless high-dimensional life forms rise and fall, a human Wu Ming was too insignificant.

　　"Tu Tie Mu created experimental subjects, but instead drove himself crazy." Gu Mo instructed, "Don't bother with him! If he has any ability, he will awaken on his own! If even his original memories of tens of thousands of years are constantly suppressed by the memories of the illusion and he cannot awaken, then there is no need to save such trash."

　　"Yes," the burly figure responded respectfully.

　　"Have the nine Venerables come to me," Gu Mo instructed.

　　The burly figure was secretly startled.

　　There were still some Eternal Realm existences in the Black Lotus Realm, and the 'Nine Great Venerables' referred to the strong members of the Void God Race, who were also the core leaders of the Black Lotus Realm.

　　A moment later.

　　In a majestic hall, Gu Mo sat high on the main seat, with the nine Venerables below.

　　"Ancestor, have you summoned us here because of some important matter?" a small, thin figure said with a smile.

　　"You should discuss how to carry out a large-scale migration of the race," Gu Mo said. "A complete migration, leaving our home universe."

　　The nine Venerables were stunned.

　　"Race migration?"

　　"This, this..."

　　"The entire race?"

　　They couldn't believe it. After all, the race had been in its home universe since its birth, and it had been that way for countless years.

　　"Yes," Gu Mo nodded. "A calamity is about to arrive, and the race must migrate."

　　"Back then, it was the half-step Third Realm 'Meng Ha Duo' who died in our home universe, causing many high-dimensional life forms to compete for his inheritance, and the aftermath caused countless races in the entire home universe to fall into great extinction. Only then… was our Void God Race conceived and born," Venerable Yun Cang said. "With the ancestor's strength, even if we encounter a similar calamity again, you would be able to protect our home universe. What kind of calamity is it that even you cannot stop?"

　　The nine Venerables all looked at Gu Mo.

　　"The information about this calamity must be kept secret," Gu Mo's gaze swept over them.

　　"Yes," the nine Venerables all answered.

　　Gu Mo then said, "This calamity will affect our 'Feng Yi Ninety-Seven Territory.' Once the calamity arrives, all universes and all living beings in this territory will fall into great extinction. Even half-step Third Realm existences will surely die in the face of such a calamity."

　　The nine Venerables' expressions changed.

　　A calamity affecting the entire territory?

　　"The entire territory is vast and boundless. Even Eternal Realm existences must leave this territory through special channels such as the Mother River and the Heart Realm," the small, thin figure said. "Ordinary Eternal Realm existences cannot leave this territory."

　　Different territories were isolated on the spatial level.

　　Ordinary Eternal Realm existences could not cross them, let alone nascent high-dimensional life forms.

　　"Ancestor, there are many difficulties in carrying out a large-scale migration with the race. First, the weaker the clansmen, the more demanding they are on the environment. Those planetary life forms cannot even survive in the cosmic starry sky. Therefore, during the great migration, we need a safe enough environment for them to survive. Second, our Void God Race was born and bred in our home universe, and the rules of our home universe are the most suitable for us. If we migrate to other living environments and the rules of the living environment are not suitable, it may lead to a large number of deaths and extinctions within the race."

　　"Source life form levels are confident of surviving under drastic environmental changes. But star life forms and planetary life forms will die more easily the weaker they are."

　　"Ancestor, will the race migration be small-scale or large-scale?"

　　The nine Venerables asked.

　　"Large-scale. Even for planetary life forms, at least 10% must be migrated," Gu Mo said.

　　"10%?"

　　The nine Venerables felt the pressure. This scale was too large.

　　"I will ask other high-dimensional life forms to help customize a 'small universe,' with the universe rules imitating our home universe as much as possible, at least achieving 90% similarity. How many can survive by then will depend on luck," Gu Mo said.

　　"Customize a small universe?" The nine Venerables were overjoyed.

　　There were many who were good at creating small universes, but to customize one, to imitate the rules of a real universe by more than 90%, and to be suitable for the survival of weak planetary life forms, was extremely difficult.

　　"I will arrange for the customization of the small universe. You should prepare for the other matters as soon as possible. The race must undergo a great migration within one abyss year. The longer we delay, the more likely accidents will occur," Gu Mo urged. In the future branches he observed, the time of the end was not certain; it could be later or earlier.

　　"Yes," the nine Venerables also felt the pressure.

　　The great migration of the race was to leave this territory, and they would encounter many troubles when they went to an unfamiliar territory. If the Void God Race wanted to reproduce and survive on a large scale, they would still need to find suitable real universes in the future.

　　The original territorial forces would also not easily allow them to take root.

　　"Ancestor, if we migrate on a large scale, the other races in our home universe will definitely discover it," the small, thin figure said.

　　"When they discover it, they will be confused and uneasy, and I believe they will be willing to pay the price to purchase information," Gu Mo said calmly. "The price we pay for the great migration is very high. At that time, we can just harvest these alien races once to make up for some of our losses."

　　"Just spending resources to buy news of the end is already a gift," the nine Venerables also felt it was normal. They cared more about their own race, and as for alien races? They had never cared about them.

　　******

　　Home universe, human territory.

　　Xu Jingming's hundreds of avatars walked through planet after planet, observing the emotions of the world and integrating them into his own 'Heart Intent Samsara Realm.'

　　"Heart Intent Samsara Realm."

　　Xu Jingming would practice every time he gained something.

　　He guessed that if Tu Tie Mu possessed and sensed, he would sense the 'Heart Intent Samsara Realm,' but he did not hide it.

　　"I only started creating the Heart Intent Samsara Realm after experiencing the first two levels of the *Bafang Tu* (Eight Directions Chart). If Tu Tie Mu doesn't have a foundation, and doesn't even have the Pure Lotus Heart, yet comes to sense the creation of the Heart Intent Samsara Realm, perhaps he will fall into the bitter sea of reincarnation," Xu Jingming merely had this thought, so he deliberately left this move. Whether it succeeded or not was up to fate.

　　Suddenly, hundreds of avatars smiled.

　　"Success."

　　"I finally passed the test of the *Bafang Tu* book," Xu Jingming rejoiced. The Heart Intent Samsara Diagram he had just created passed the test of the third level space, and he had finally cultivated the 'Heart Intent Realm.'

　　"Reaching the 'Heart Intent Realm' of the *Bafang Tu* is considered a small achievement," Xu Jingming could feel his own progress.

　　Originally, his Pure Lotus Heart was like a pure lotus, like a bright mirror, untouched by all laws; this was the transcendence of the self.

　　The Joy-Anger Realm, Seven Colors Realm, and Heart Intent Realm of the *Bafang Tu* deepened the degree of control over emotions.

　　"Completely control all emotions."

　　Xu Jingming was like viewing the lines on his palm, able to clearly distinguish his various emotions, and even the entanglement of different emotions.

　　…

　　Headquarters of the Primordial Research Institute, Xu Jingming's residence.

　　Xu Jingming was here, using the flowers of sin to condense the Pure Lotus Fire.

　　"They all say that the word 'emotion' is the most elusive," Xu Jingming watched the endless sins in the flower of sin. "But now, in my eyes, emotions can be classified, one, two, three, four, five..."

　　"Single type, mixed type, beyond life and death type."

　　Why can some emotions shake the mind?

　　Why can some emotions transcend life and death?

　　Xu Jingming was very clear, and he could even create such an illusion to allow living beings to experience such emotions within it.

　　"There is desire, then there are emotions! With emotions, there are sins," Xu Jingming looked at the endless sins. If they were some puppets or machines, they would have no emotions, and even the greatest slaughter would not produce any sin.

　　Truly terrifying sins must have sufficiently strong emotions integrated into them, whether it was love, hate, or some other emotion.

　　"Burdened by sins?"

　　Xu Jingming already had the demeanor of a true Heart Realm lineage expert, manipulating sins to condense the 'Pure Lotus Fire.' His only shortcoming now was that the Heart Realm power he could mobilize was too weak.

　　He was, after all, only a low-dimensional life form, not even an infant compared to high-dimensional life forms. Weak Heart Realm power limited his strength.

　　If the Heart Realm power he mobilized greatly increased, both the illusion and the Pure Lotus Fire would reach new levels.

　　"The realm of the mind determines the level of secret techniques."

　　"Let me see the deeper tests of the *Bafang Tu*," Xu Jingming felt the help the *Bafang Tu* gave him and had already begun the fourth level of cultivation in the Heart Realm domain.
