I will teach you how to cultivate immortality

Chapter 265 Casting the Nine Tripods to Divide the Divine Land (23)

"So, you're planning to do something very dangerous."

"This matter is so dangerous that even if you are the current Witch King, you have to find a successor for yourself in advance."

Having already foreseen this, Li Boyang, who had somehow produced the Heavenly Fate Bone Armor, asked in a deep voice.

"I've long heard that the Huaijiang witch from a thousand years ago was a master of divination, and you, her successor, have surpassed her in skill..."

His gaze lingered briefly on the Heavenly Fate Bone Armor, and then the "Witch King" seemed to seamlessly switch back to Wu Yi's state.

"What else did you figure out? Can you tell me?"

After a slight hesitation, Li Boyang finally decided to get straight to the point.

"Shortly after the floods subsided, I foresaw a great calamity, a calamity that might be even more terrifying than the floods."

“I have foreseen that the great calamity was related to the Great Xia Dynasty, and it is even possible that you personally instigated it.”

"The art of divination is actually quite simple..."

"That is, the more information you know, the more accurate your calculations will be."

"So at first I wanted to wait for this great calamity to come and then do my best to protect myself."

Upon hearing this, Wu Yi understood Li Boyang's thoughts.

"Well, with your abilities, it would indeed be very easy for you to remain unscathed."

"Then why did you suddenly change your mind?"

Li Boyang narrowed his eyes slightly, hesitated again, and then turned to look at Xi Luo behind him.

"Sometimes, being a loner is not a perfect choice."

"In this life, after living so many years and experiencing so many things, there are always some things that cannot be given up."

"For this, what's a little risk?"

Having vaguely understood Li Boyang's meaning, Wu Yi glanced at Xi Luo with slight surprise.

Unlike the slow-witted Xi Luo, Wu Yi saw things much more clearly and spoke much more sharply.

"You did it for her..."

"No, you did it for these hundred mountains!"

Before Li Boyang could react, Xi Luo stared wide-eyed in astonishment.

Even someone as slow-witted as her had come to understand something after Wu Yi pointed out the key point.

Fortunately, before Xi Luo could ask any further questions, Li Boyang had already taken the initiative to explain.

"You're right."

“When Xiluo told me that she had also predicted this great calamity, I realized the seriousness of the problem.”

"I was able to predict this great calamity because my primordial spirit and divination skills have reached a high level, and I can sense any major event that is about to happen."

"Especially when it comes to oneself, one's innate intuition is often incredibly accurate."

"But Xi Luo's primordial spirit is far inferior to mine, and her divination skills are only at a beginner level. How did she sense this great calamity?"

There is only one answer: she is also caught in the calamity.

At this point, Li Boyang couldn't help but recall the "Xi Luo" he had seen back then.

That half-human, half-beast primordial spirit posture, and that indifferent smile exactly like the Huaijiang witch, were clearly some kind of deliberate reminder.

Even the results that Xi Luo thought she had divined could hardly be said to be unaffected by that "Xi Luo".

"I see!"

Nodding in understanding, Wu Yi finally understood why Li Boyang had changed his mind.

If it were him, facing the same situation, he might also have fought for the Great Xia.

"So what are you going to do?"

"Do you intend to kill me here and end this calamity prematurely?" Although he was talking about his own life and death, Wu Yi's tone was unexpectedly calm and composed.

Of course, Wu Yi's words were tantamount to an admission that he would definitely unleash that great calamity in the future.

"I did have that thought before..."

"But shortly after I had this idea, the future changed."

Li Boyang did not deny that he had indeed harbored murderous intent towards Wu Yi, but he could only sigh helplessly.

“The great calamity turned into a catastrophe, a catastrophe targeting all the gods, and I am one of the sources of it.”

The future holds infinite possibilities, especially when it comes to such an inevitable catastrophe.

Li Boyang couldn't even be sure whether he had turned a great calamity into a catastrophe.
Was it that yet-to-be-born catastrophe that prompted him to want to kill Wu Yi?

"Has the future changed? Is a true catastrophe about to unfold?"

Although Wu Yi's expression remained unchanged, his voice suddenly became much more excited.

"Does this mean that my next plan is indeed feasible?"

Having overheard the conversation, Xi Luo finally couldn't help but interrupt it.

"What kind of riddle are you playing? What's going on here?"

Despite saying this, Xi Luo's eyes were filled with hostility as she looked at Wu Yi, and her entire body unconsciously transformed back into the red leopard form.

"Don't worry, I'll explain it to you slowly."

"After all, at least up to now, we haven't reached the point of being enemies, have we?"

With unusual composure, Wu Yi glanced at Xi Luo, completely disregarding her threat.

"Just like I said before..."

"Successive sorcerers have always been searching for a way to solve the threat from the gods once and for all."

"As long as the gods exist, the Great Xia will always be at risk of losing its country."

"Only by eliminating those gods can Great Xia truly become Great Xia for humanity, and only then will humanity have a brand new future."

"Therefore, each Witch King would gather the power of the entire Great Xia Dynasty to forge a divine cauldron at the peak of his own power."

"By the time of my term, nine such divine cauldrons had already been forged..."

After a slight pause, Wu Yi couldn't help but laugh.

"I originally intended to take advantage of the flood caused by Wuzhiqi to weaken the power of the gods within the Great Xia territory to the extreme..."

"Then, we will use the power of these nine divine cauldrons to suppress the nine provinces and create a super-large barrier that is forbidden to gods."

"Within this divine barrier, the gods will no longer be able to unleash natural disasters with impunity."

"Anyone who dares to defy the will of the 'Witch King' will be judged by the Divine Continent Barrier!"

Listening to Wu Yi's description, Li Boyang suddenly interrupted.

"And what about the 'Witch King'?"

"Without the checks and balances of the gods, who will judge the Witch King?"

"I do not believe that with your intelligence you are unaware of what absolute power can bring."

“What you are doing is nothing more than creating a ‘Great God’, a ‘Great God’ with human will.”

The accumulated wisdom and power of successive witch kings will inevitably give birth to a true great god in the future.

If this great deity always sticks to the human perspective, that's fine, but what if He loses control?
Even if things don't get out of control, given Wu Yi's current behavior, Li Boyang finds it hard to believe that he wouldn't cleanse other creatures on the ground.

“In this world, ‘human supremacy’ does not work.”
