Immortality: Starting with a grave, I'm invincible when burying corpses.

"Whether its own will still exists, I cannot judge for the time being, but the strength of this Golden Immortal is definitely far beyond that of the Nine Nether Demon Abyss. It is even possible to nurture beings with strength no weaker than Golden Immortals within its body, and it is these unknown beings that forged the three immortal treasures in your hands, fellow Daoist."

Upon hearing such explosive news, even the composed Old Master was somewhat numb. He had considered many possibilities, but he never imagined it would be like this.

What exactly are these Golden Immortals in the Boundary Sea?

It's one thing to be ridiculously strong, but how could it also give birth to such a terrifying being?

This old Taoist priest is ignorant; is this how you play with avatars?

Just how many cunning schemers have their eyes on the Nine Realms?

So sinister! Each and every one of them is incredibly sinister!

Thinking of this, the old celestial master took out the precious pearl that he had previously put away in his sleeve, and looked at the pearl full of cracks with a complicated expression.

"So, as early as 300,000 years ago, our world was already being watched by these beings hiding behind the scenes?"

The three immortals who descended, and the immortal treasures that were passed down, were all just a pretext for them to achieve their ultimate goal.

Even without the appearance of Tian Sheng Mountain, would the three immortals who descended have survived until now, only to be eventually devoured by the entity behind the scenes?

This time, Mu An gave an affirmative answer.

"That's right... There was no karma in the world originally, but karma appeared after the Wheel of Karma appeared. This karma has been integrated into the spiritual energy over the past 300,000 years, affecting every cultivator in the world. Even I didn't realize the problem before, and only thought that karma was a law that evolved from the Nine Realms themselves."

"It wasn't until I saw this Wheel of Karma that I realized that karma is not something inherent in the Nine Realms, but rather something that has become one with the Nine Realms over a long period of time."

"When cultivators practiced those techniques passed down from the 'immortals' 300,000 years ago, their karma spread throughout the Nine Realms, merging with spiritual energy and accumulating to this day, a period of 300,000 years."

"In other words, the spiritual energy is poisonous, and all the cultivators in the Nine Domains are deeply poisoned."

……

The spiritual energy is poisonous!

What explosive and terrifying news!

Heaven knows what Qinghe felt after hearing this. Feeling the abundant spiritual power within her body, Qinghe felt that her life was about to end and cried out in her heart.

Reality, however, does not change because of the girl's thoughts; Mu An's "terrifying" voice still echoes in her ears.

"Three hundred thousand years ago, the so-called 'Immortal Realm' discovered the existence of the Nine Domains. The powerful beings of the 'Immortal Realm' may have discovered the truth of the world they lived in, or they may have realized their own shortcomings."

After discovering the Nine Realms, the powerful beings of the "Immortal Realm" immediately turned their attention to the Nine Realms, to this world that was rapidly evolving and whose Heavenly Dao was not yet perfect.

In the eyes of an incomplete Golden Immortal, the Nine Realms are the most delicious fruit and the most precious treasure in the Boundary Sea.

In order to perfect his own realm, this powerful figure, whose foundation was the Path of Destruction, made a plan immediately. He crafted the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram and the Karma Sea Wheel, and also obtained two immortal treasures through other means, which he then bestowed upon the three immortals.

These include the Yin-Yang Taiji diagram, the Thunder Pearl, the Golden Lotus of Merit, and finally, the Wheel of Karma.

The Thunder Pearl and the Golden Lotus of Merit were given to the Buddhist and Demonic immortals who came to the Nine Realms, while the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram and the Karma Sea Wheel were given to his subordinates.

That is, the Taoist immortal who passed down the Taoist lineage 300,000 years ago.

Or perhaps, the three immortals—Tao, Buddhism, and Demon—were all under this person's command, but were assigned different tasks.

As for whether the three immortals themselves knew these things, I dare not say.

These days, the thing that the strong like to do most is to have multiple identities, so that their subordinates have no idea how many different roles their boss has.

Unsurprisingly, the person who orchestrated our Nine Domains strategy is also adept at using aliases.

These minor details are insignificant. In short, the three immortals are all pawns. The person who orchestrated this had foreseen the possible future events from the very beginning and was even prepared to be betrayed by the three immortals.

Or perhaps, they would arrange for three immortals from different factions to come to the Nine Realms in order to avoid risks.

If any one of the three immortals can complete the task, then the person who orchestrated the plan can accomplish what they want to do.

Because its true purpose was hidden in the shadows, even the three immortals were unaware of it, only believing that the person who orchestrated it wanted to gain some benefits from the Nine Realms.

After all, passing down a lineage is a normal thing, and it's hard for people to associate it with any sinister plot. They would only think that their leader wants to seize the fortune of the world and gain more benefits in the future.

What they didn't know was...

He passed down the Daoist tradition, allowing cultivators from the Nine Realms to absorb spiritual energy, and brought the Karma Sea Wheel to the Nine Realms.

These are the things that the mastermind wanted to do. The three immortals achieved the mastermind's ultimate goal in the process of completing the mission.

As the planners had predicted, although the immortals of the demonic path met with an accident and were unable to pass on the demonic lineage.

However, the immortals of Taoism and Buddhism fulfilled their assigned missions well, passing down their respective lineages and leading the human race of the Nine Realms toward civilization.

Under the guidance of the two immortals, the original cultivation method was quickly spread and reached the entire Nine Realms.

It was at this time that the accident happened.

What the mastermind didn't expect was that He wasn't the only one eyeing the Nine Realms.

The appearance of Tian Sheng Mountain directly led to the fall of two immortals, Dao and Buddha. Although they left behind their own contingency plans, they could no longer interfere with the development of the Nine Domains, causing everything to spiral out of control.

But as I said at the beginning, the person who orchestrated this never trusted these three immortals. His real trump card was the Karma Wheel that was brought down along with the other immortal treasures.

His goal was achieved during the process of the immortal spreading his teachings.

Because the two immortals passed down their teachings and guided the development of civilization, they were naturally regarded as immortals from the upper realm and worshipped by cultivators of later generations.

The celestial treasures he possessed were regarded as supreme treasures of the celestial realm by cultivators from the Nine Realms.

The Karma Wheel carried by Taoist immortals, like other celestial treasures, was regarded as a supreme treasure of the celestial realm by the human race at that time, and was given a new name: the Heaven and Earth Compass.

Thus, under the combined effect of the initial cultivation techniques and the Heaven and Earth Compass, karma spread throughout the Nine Realms.

As time passed, over the long years, karma deepened its influence on the Nine Realms, gradually becoming something similar to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and the Nine Realms themselves gave birth to similar laws.

In this process of development day after day, time came to seven thousand years ago.

In order to complete the final evolution and to bring the world to perfection, the spiritual energy of the Nine Realms began to recede, and the spiritual energy that was originally distributed between heaven and earth was completely transformed into primordial energy.

If we had to say, there is no difference in quality between the two types of energy; they are both forms of energy in the universe. It's just that spiritual energy is gentler, while primordial energy is more volatile. In terms of quantity, spiritual energy is scarcer, while primordial energy is more abundant.
