Chapter 1550: Chapter 1550
Since the dragons have left, they no longer need to hurry. Although this world has undergone a great transformation, Professionals like them can still leave, and it can even be said they are freer than ever.
The entire world has lost its world will, which is the same as losing its Heavenly Path, or as if a territory has lost its lord.
Previously, entering and exiting relied on special methods of smuggling or purchasing tickets, but now there’s no oversight, so freedom of movement prevails.
For someone like Du You, a tier-seven powerhouse, he can directly lock onto this world’s coordinates and come and go as he pleases. While tier-seven powerhouses could lock onto coordinates even before, entering a world didn’t require secondary coordination back then.
Previously, a considerable amount of energy was expended to do this, but now there’s no need—it’s as simple as walking through the door to your own home.
So next, orders from above came down, instructing everyone to start exploring this world to find anything useful to them. If anything of value exists, Earth can still benefit from this world; otherwise, it’s of no concern. Get full chapters from 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢•𝕟𝕖𝕥
This situation is something Earth is encountering for the first time; its world will has never behaved before.
"The higher-ups have given the orders, and I happen to want to see what kind of world this will turn into."
Du You smiled as he spoke to the two sisters. The sisters gently nodded, and the three of them began investigating their surroundings.
The entire world—countless planets had crumbled, with asteroids scattered everywhere, and the starry sky appeared chaotic. Even many corpses of creatures drifted here, uncertain when they would dissipate or whether they might never vanish.
After all, no life exists in the starry sky; it’s an ideal place for preservation.
Some planets or planetary fragments had been forcibly mashed together by unknown forces, forming very bizarre shapes. They were no longer spherical but had turned into various grotesque configurations.
As Du You observed planets that still harbored life, he noticed certain changes occurring in this world.
"Is this what they call the Dharma Ending Freezing Winter Age?" Du You wondered.
"Master, what is the Dharma Ending Freezing Winter Age?" Lin Yushi asked curiously.
Du You pondered for a moment before explaining, "It means there’s no way to cultivate anymore, and in the future, special powers will cease to exist. Everyone will only be ordinary humans, nothing more."
Lin Yushi’s eyes lit up. "Isn’t that just a technological world, then?"
Lin Yucha shook her head. "No, Master isn’t talking about a technological world. A technological world still contains its own laws. Although it follows a technological path, it likewise has cyborgs, some unique lifeforms, and individuals with superpowers. A technological world isn’t incapable of cultivation, but cultivation simply isn’t its primary focus."
"Moreover, advancing a technological world requires materials infused with laws. Weapons rated at tier seven must utilize these materials; ordinary materials can’t withstand such immense power. That’s the fundamental difference."
Indeed, tier-seven weapons, though incapable of utilizing laws and still bound by rules, cannot even exist without materials containing laws, as ordinary substances cannot endure the power they hold. This marks the essential distinction.
This world has lost all law-based power; all laws have completely dissipated. Furthermore, the fundamental rules of the world have begun reorganization. Once complete, they’ll form the essence of this world.
From then on, people can only utilize these rules, and they’ll be unable to assimilate them to unleash extraordinary strength.
This, in Du You’s eyes, is the Dharma Ending Freezing Winter Age—a world where no extraordinary powers can ever be born. External powerhouses won’t come here either; this world will likely be utterly isolated.
"In the future, the people of this world will probably only be able to develop technological strength. However, to what extent they can develop remains unknown."
Du You sighed, thinking of the Earth’s universe from his previous life, and how similar it was to this world. The only difference was that the Earth’s universe might have been larger and less lively—nothing more.
Even if this world pursues a technological path, it lacks many essential materials, meaning weapons rated at tier seven certainly can’t be manufactured.
Lower-level weapons, constrained by the physical limits of their users, will likely have painfully limited power.
Training methods will only help these people improve their physical fitness. Even if methods of modification are invented later, it won’t grant anyone extraordinary abilities—at best, it might tweak machinery or genes.
Du You even dared to bet that for a long time, the people of this world wouldn’t even be able to leave their own planet.
Without tier-seven rated weapons, they can’t break through the world’s barrier. This world will become their only realm. The greatest advantage, perhaps, would simply be its safety.
Forget it; why dwell on so much? Better to finish the mission first. Du You and the two sisters continued their observations.
They examined one section of the starry sky after another, but in the end, they found nothing useful to them. With the world’s origin destroyed, this world resembled little more than a lifeless husk.
Many thought of their less-powerful family members back home and couldn’t help feeling helpless. If this world had maintained its previous state, it would have been a great place for development. Fortunately, some individuals still had some rule crystals in hand, which would suffice for their weaker family members. Feedback from various locations was consistent.
"Though it’s of no use, at least we’ve learned that a world whose origin has been destroyed is utterly useless."
"Master, such worlds must occur very rarely, right? Most worlds that have their origins destroyed usually face complete annihilation. This world is either unique or very close to it."
Du You smiled and remained silent. Lin Yushi was right; such experiences truly wouldn’t have much practical application.
"Enough. Don’t overthink it. Let’s log our findings and head back. We’ve gathered plenty of law crystals this time, sufficient to elevate our strength significantly. We can proceed with our next plan now."
The two sisters understood Du You’s meaning and nodded slightly in agreement. They merely notified the rear before leaving this world behind. Without requiring a spatial channel, the trio walked directly through the Void, knowing exactly where Earth was located.
Their actions didn’t evoke dissatisfaction, as they weren’t the first to depart in this manner.
Others had already left this shattered world because they needed to return and process their findings. Once others learned of their harvests, who knows how envious they’d become?
Back at home, Du You and the two sisters immediately traveled to the Yalan Continent, where they used the Skill Hall to start closed-door cultivation.
