Chapter 919: Chapter 919 - 461: Heaven-Sent Merit, Surging Destiny_2
At this moment, it sensed a mortal danger.
If this human cultivator in front of it made a move, it would undoubtedly die.
Of course, it didn’t expect this human cultivator to stop.
The reason for saying these words was merely to buy time.
It sensed that powerful demons would soon teleport from other demon caves.
As long as it could delay for a few breaths, it could survive.
"Noisy."
Jiang Fan certainly understood its motives and wasn’t planning to waste words with it.
Holding the Human Emperor Sword, he slashed fiercely at the giant demon core.
Boom~~
A terrifying golden sword light blasted forward, seemingly tearing apart this world.
The originally indestructible demon core was instantly shattered under the power of the golden sword light.
Undoubtedly, the power of the Human Emperor Sword was especially effective against the demon cave.
Like ice and snow meeting sunlight, it quickly melted away without any strength to resist.
"It’s over."
The Cyan Stone Demon Cave was utterly despairing, but it could do nothing as it sensed its core being destroyed, its consciousness completely shattered.
In just an instant, it was eradicated, falling into endless darkness.
"Not bad."
Seeing the demon core completely destroyed, Jiang Fan sensed the entire demon cave starting to collapse.
The purpose of his venture into the Cyan Stone Demon Cave was fully achieved.
He couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Although the operation seemed very smooth with no unexpected events, Jiang Fan knew it was all thanks to the power of destiny’s prompt.
If he hadn’t seen through the fog of destiny, he would have probably perished at the hands of the demons long ago.
Let alone being able to effortlessly slay a Combined Demon and destroy the Cyan Stone Demon Cave.
Boom~~
In an instant, Jiang Fan sensed the void start trembling, and a golden beam of light descended from the heavens, revealing densely packed golden merit runes, filled with endless origin energy.
Suddenly, this energy instantly penetrated deep into Jiang Fan’s body.
He suddenly found his cultivation level rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Originally, his cultivation was merely at 1% of the Second-Layer Divinity Transformation, but in the blink of an eye, it rose to 10%, 20%, 30%...
In just three breaths, it reached 100%.
He was just one step away from advancing to the Third-Layer Divinity Transformation.
Moreover, this vast origin energy hadn’t been completely devoured, he only absorbed a small portion of it.
It transformed into a golden energy sphere, merging into his sea of consciousness.
"Heavenly gift."
"This is a gift from the Heavenly Dao."
Jiang Fan instantly understood what had happened, having shattered the demon core and destroyed the demon cave, he received the gift of the Spirit Ruins Realm from the Heavenly Dao, gaining enlightenment and absorbing vast origin energy.
This was why his cultivation surged so rapidly.
Within the blink of an eye, it reached Divinity Transformation Perfection at the Second Layer.
"Received a heavenly gift?"
"That’s quite normal."
"Similar events happened in the Ancient Era."
"If a cultivator makes a great contribution to heaven and earth, they receive gifts from the Heavenly Dao."
"But not every deed can earn a heavenly gift."
"Only truly world-saving deeds get acknowledged by the Heavenly Dao."
"Destroying a demon cave is such a deed."
The Human Emperor Sword said this matter-of-factly upon witnessing the event.
It had seen many similar events before.
This is a special reward mechanism produced when the Heavenly Dao faces calamities.
"Indeed, demon caves harm the world immensely."
"They’re akin to malignancies on the world, continuously devouring the world’s essence."
"Destroying a demon cave returns the devoured essence to the world."
"The world can even absorb the demon cave’s essence to strengthen itself."
"So receiving a heavenly gift is quite normal."
The Primordial Talisman Pen said in a deep voice.
It too had seen sages in the ancient era perform similar acts.
Thus, Jiang Fan’s destruction of a demon cave was indeed a major deed for the world.
Equivalent to eradicating a tumor for the world.
So gaining recognition from the Spirit Ruins Realm was only natural.
"I see, so this is the world’s origin energy?"
"No wonder it benefits cultivators endlessly."
"Probably even more than any ten-thousand-year-old spirit medicine or elixir."
"With such a vast amount of origin energy, I can quickly ascend to Divinity Transformation Perfection."
Jiang Fan clenched his fists excitedly.
Indeed, the Spirit Ruins Realm was a land of opportunity for him.
Initially, he thought going to the Cyan Stone Demon Cave might yield little treasure, merely a futile effort.
Who could have imagined obtaining some heaven and earth origin energy?
This surpassed any elixir or spirit medicine by countless times.
If this essence could be fully digested, reaching Divinity Transformation Perfection wouldn’t take long.
This greatly enhanced his cultivation efficiency, with limitless benefits.
Boom~~
A message instantly entered his sea of consciousness: "Congratulations on destroying a Cyan Stone Demon Cave, slaying a Combined Demon, surviving a life-or-death ordeal, and gaining one billion Luck Points."
"This."
Upon sensing this message, Jiang Fan’s pupils contracted, and his heart was filled with tumultuous waves.
The amount of Luck Points gained this time was unbelievably astonishing, reaching a staggering billion.
Who knows how many ordeals one would have to go through to obtain such Luck Points.
But now, he acquired them all at once, truly outrageous.
Yet upon closer thought, it seemed quite normal.
After all, he did destroy a demon cave.
Even an Integration Cultivator might struggle to achieve this, it was practically a miracle.
So incredible, few would believe such an absurd tale.
"With so many Luck Points, I can likely cultivate the many Life Talismans on me to the Proficient Level."
Jiang Fan beamed with delight.
He knew how tough it was to cultivate each Immortal Realm talisman to the Proficient Level.
If it were easy, the Primordial Talisman Sect’s ancestors in the ancient era wouldn’t have cultivated so few Immortal Realm talismans. He could save plenty of time, though consuming a lot of Luck Points was also necessary.
Fortunately, he now gained one billion Luck Points all at once.
A fortune overnight, essentially.
"My luck has skyrocketed."
"Now, I count as a Child of Fortune in the Spirit Ruins Realm."
Jiang Fan smiled faintly.
He noticed his luck had surged compared to before.
The Fortune Golden Dragon above his head grew double in size.
More importantly, this Fortune Golden Dragon resonated with the Heavenly Dao of the Spirit Ruins Realm.
As if he was inherently a Child of Fortune spawned by this world.
Obviously, he already gained recognition from this world’s Heavenly Dao.
"Received such immense luck from the Spirit Ruins Realm, is this akin to being an honorary citizen?"
Jiang Fan stroked his chin.
Such matters seemed normal.
Though he was an outsider, he had made tremendous contributions locally.
Even outperforming natives by countless times.
The Heavenly Dao of the Spirit Ruins Realm wasn’t foolish; its methods were versatile.
Regardless of the cat’s color, as long as it catches mice and benefits the Spirit Ruins Realm, it’s a good cat.
During this period, Jiang Fan made outstanding contributions to the Spirit Ruins Realm, even reversing part of its fate, naturally gaining the Heavenly Dao’s recognition.
Of course, this was greatly beneficial for Jiang Fan as well.
It meant he had an abundant fortune in the Spirit Ruins Realm, allowing for more opportunities.
Boom~~
Suddenly, another message entered Jiang Fan’s sea of consciousness.
"Fate is always fickle. Although you’ve destroyed the Cyan Stone Demon Cave and dealt the demons a heavy blow, your actions have thoroughly enraged them, and they now view you as a thorn in their side, needing swift removal. Your reputation begins to spread in the demon race and even among the human great powers of the Great Xuan Dynasty, so you will face the pursuit of the Spirit Ruins Realm’s demon race, and staying here means certain death."
"Fate will provide you guidance."
