Chapter 1 The Interplay of Cost and Flaw

"To make cost and flaw restrain and offset each other, one must travel between different worlds." At this moment, Ye Chuxiao's need for Destiny has risen to another level, and he has also solved the doubts that had been lingering in his mind.

Without a doubt, whether it is staying in a certain world for a long time or traveling back and forth between already connected worlds, Destiny is needed as a bargaining chip to pay.

Although Destiny is not as rare as Dao rhyme, it is a hard currency.

Cultivation, Dao rhyme, and Destiny are, in a sense, a trinity concept.

Only when the three are gathered together can one walk on the correct path of cultivation.

After obtaining the cultivation method of this world, Ye Chuxiao made slight adjustments to adapt to the cultivation details of this world. The true cultivation base that was originally bound and sealed was also quickly unsealed.

However, although the cultivation base has recovered, the problem of the lame leg has not been solved.

This is the negative impact caused by low Destiny.

Perhaps this is not the worst. If Ye Chuxiao continues to maintain such a low Destiny, greater difficulties await him.

Good luck will not favor him, but misfortune will follow one after another.

"Solving the problem of the lame leg is not too difficult, as long as the cultivation base breaks into the Ku Jing (Torment Realm) from the Yu Jing (Ignorance Realm)."

"The Yu Jing is a realm that even the most ignorant can reach. It is the 'fairness' that the path of cultivation gives to all living beings. The Ku Jing is the sea of suffering that blocks more than 70% of so-called cultivators in this realm."

"Ku Jing cultivation is not only time-consuming and laborious, requiring daily persistence, but also requires enduring the tempering of hardship. Taking martial arts cultivation as an example, one needs to use spiritual medicine in conjunction with True Qi to successively cleanse and scour the skin, bones, flesh, internal organs until the whole body is transparent, and all the aura and strength can be integrated into one in an instant. In this process, each cultivation is like ten thousand ants gnawing at the heart, extremely painful, and ordinary people simply cannot persist, and most will choose to give up, stagnating in the Ku Jing."

"Even Qi refiners, who seem to be the easiest among the hundreds of cultivation methods, need to study, memorize, and adjust their own aura frequency every day in the Ku Jing, imitating the many airflow changes in this world when exhaling. A little carelessness will lead to Qi deviation, injuring the internal organs and meridians, and the pain is like being drawn out of tendons and bones. Persist in this way until one day, three thousand breaths are exhaled, each different."

"Also because of the existence of the Ku Jing, cultivators who practice multiple methods in this world, if not rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, are also extremely rare, because most cultivators who have passed through the Ku Jing can endure the inhuman pain once, but find it difficult to withstand repeated torment."

"Even the children of aristocratic families and disciples of major sects who have the conditions to use good spiritual medicines can only shorten this process as much as possible, but it is impossible to avoid it. Moreover, in the process of shortening, the pain is doubled. They only shortened the time, but did not reduce the pain, but intensified the pain suffered in the short term."

"Therefore, the Ku Jing is also regarded as a trial for the strong. Only cultivators who have passed through the Ku Jing can bear great responsibilities, while those below the Ku Jing are not valued."

"Entering the Ku Jing in martial arts cultivation can remold the bones, and my current lame leg can also be repaired in the Ku Jing."

With a lame leg, Ye Chuxiao returned to the hall where blood stains remained and ate the baked sweet potato without changing his expression.

Perhaps because he had changed worlds, Ye Chuxiao finally felt different.

"When did I become so indifferent?"

"And so bold, as if I don't have much awe." Ye Chuxiao looked at the hall, which at this time looked like a demon's cave in hell, and thought while eating the fragrant baked sweet potato.

Indifference and lack of awe are good things sometimes, but not necessarily at other times.

Moreover, Ye Chuxiao could not guarantee that the emotions he was missing would always be like this.

Indifference and lack of awe for life may be the flaws and costs brought about by the path of cultivation in the world where Daheng is located.

After having food in his stomach, Ye Chuxiao sat down cross-legged and began to concentrate.

At this time, what he was using was the Change Appearance technique in the Nine Deaths Demonic Art.

Compared with the truly profound parts of the Nine Deaths Demonic Art, this kind of means of changing appearance can only be said to be a little bit of fur.

Before long, his appearance had undergone subtle adjustments.

Upon closer inspection, it was actually seven or eight points similar to the 'Ninth Brother' who was casually killed by Qiu Changling.

In order to conform to the identity of someone who possessed the secret of the Nine Deaths Demonic Art, Ye Chuxiao did not demand absolute similarity.

"A tragic massacre of the entire sect, with only one person surviving by chance, carrying a deep blood feud, and also hiding the secret of a peerless divine skill. As long as this identity is 'exposed', it will definitely cause a huge storm."

"There are great dangers in this, but for me, isn't it a good opportunity?"

"If you want to stand at the forefront and be favored by fate, you must venture into a mountain of knives and a sea of fire."

"Being at the center of the storm, my Destiny will definitely increase rapidly."

"What's more, I still have a trump card. When it comes to the last resort, I can still activate the golden clock with Dao rhyme and take the Good Fortune Boat to run away."

Ye Chuxiao walked to the pool and looked at his appearance at this time, nodding with satisfaction.

Why not disguise himself as Yue Ting Shan? This is easy to understand.

Yue Ting Shan is obviously a well-known figure, and there must be many people who are familiar with him. If Ye Chuxiao disguises himself as him, the possibility of being exposed is greater.

Moreover, the relationship between Yue Ting Shan and Qiu Changling is a contradictory one without any buffer.

There is less room for feigned civility.

Assuming that Ye Chuxiao is captured by Qiu Changling in the future, as the 'Ninth Brother', Qiu Changling will imprison him and try to find out the whereabouts of the Nine Deaths Demonic Art.

If he were to act as Yue Ting Shan, then only torture would remain.

After nightfall, Ye Chuxiao quietly climbed over the back wall with a lame leg.

Then, he still dressed as a beggar, but sneaked cautiously towards the North City Gate.

Before long, someone quietly followed him. Although the Tianwei Martial Arts School was destroyed, there were still some local forces who arranged informants to keep an eye on it.

If Ye Chuxiao entered and exited through the main gate as before, and continued to beg in the city, it would not be a big deal.

But the way he was hiding his head and showing his tail, and heading straight for the North City Gate, as if planning to take a boat along the river, would inevitably arouse suspicion.

At this time, Ye Chuxiao looked up at the simple and clean light screen panel.

On the original scarce and bland Destiny balance, five points suddenly jumped up, from the original three points to eight points.

And there is still an upward trend. https:/

"Very good, my plan has succeeded!"

"Replacing the appearance of the Ninth Brother, and bearing such a 'protagonist' style destiny, my Destiny value has been increased and strengthened. After that, as long as I create a bigger commotion, the Destiny value will increase more." Limping, Ye Chuxiao's pace quickened a bit.

He is not pretending now, but really running for his life.

"The dew is heavy in the night, little beggar, instead of sleeping in your kennel, what are you doing running to the city gate?" A cold voice came, blocking Ye Chuxiao's path.

On the light screen, Ye Chuxiao's Destiny balance jumped up another three points, reaching eleven points.

It is not far from Ye Chuxiao's original Destiny points.
