Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard”

Su Yuan proceeded to visit eight more locations, collecting the Divine Kingdoms left behind after the other Ancient Gods’ demise one by one, incorporating them all around the [Fate Compass] to form nine planets orbiting it.

The Earth Divine Kingdom was placed in the third position and could be referred to as Earth Star for short.

After some thought, Su Yuan shrank the Blood Moon Divine Kingdom slightly and placed it next to the Earth Divine Kingdom, making it a satellite of the Earth Divine Kingdom.

When this stellar system was established, the repair speed of the [Fate Compass] indeed accelerated significantly!

Moreover, it could also maintain the integrity of those Divine Kingdoms.

These Divine Kingdoms were all Ancient Gods’ Divine Kingdoms, each internally equivalent to a great thousand-world realm!

They just lacked vitality at present.

Su Yuan pondered for a moment, then had another teardrop of stellar magnitude, the Green Emperor puppet, radiate light of life that illuminated the entire star system. Within each Divine Kingdom, life began to gestate, including even innate life forms of extremely high essence.

This was the effect of Heavenly Dao-level life force, possessing numerous capabilities such as creating life and transforming life.

The puppet’s consumption also needed replenishment. Su Yuan transformed the remaining several hundred Calamity Fiends into planets for the Green Emperor puppet, also forming an operational mechanism to aid the puppet’s recovery.

Su Yuan enveloped the entire [Tear of Eternity] with the power of the Time Law, accelerating time. Under ten-thousandfold time acceleration, the repair process sped up considerably. Within those nine Divine Kingdoms, life was also rapidly emerging and growing.

In just ten thousand years, life had flourished. Various races appeared within each Divine Kingdom, all growing in primitive conditions and exploring paths to transcendence.

The radiance of the [Fate Compass] formed connections with the living beings in these nine Divine Kingdoms, and the power of fate began operating within them.

The recovery speed of the [Fate Compass] accelerated several times over again!

Su Yuan silently contemplated, his understanding of the Fate Law advancing by leaps and bounds. While observing all living beings, he comprehended the Fate Law to perfection, reaching the level of proving the Hunyuan Dao.

He had brought destruction to Divine Kingdoms, and he had also brought rebirth to their interiors.

The birth, aging, sickness, and death of these living beings, even the creation and destruction of the Divine Kingdoms themselves, all rested within Su Yuan’s mere thought!

The Fate Law resembled a net, weaving the fates of all living beings, and Su Yuan was the one casting that net, controlling the Fate Law.

Unconsciously, the [Fate Compass] had already been successfully repaired.

The Creator God artifact was fully restored to its original state.

All ten rule restrictions inside remained intact. If the tenth restriction were activated, it would unleash Heavenly Dao-level power!

With Su Yuan’s current cultivation level, he couldn’t directly unleash the full might of the [Fate Compass] and could only indirectly utilize it through the [Tear of Eternity].

“The Fate Compass, a Creator God artifact, can also be called a Heavenly Dao treasure or a mid-grade treasure. It possesses numerous abilities such as weaving, modifying, creating, and destroying fate. If I sever someone else’s fate, that person will be near death because their subsequent fate ceases to exist!”

Even if one breaks free from the constraints of the River of Fate, life still possesses its own fate, a fate controlled by oneself. But this can still be countered by fate rules. Severing fate or influencing fate will both produce astonishing effects.

Su Yuan took out the [Fate Compass] and pressed his hand against it. The pointer on it continuously jumped, and trajectories of fate constantly shifted.

Su Yuan extracted a wisp of the Star Ancient God’s divine power and threw it into the [Fate Compass].

He saw the figure of the Star Ancient God. This wasn’t seen through [Mental Echo], but rather through the Fate Compass and fate rules – it was a fate image.

After seeing the Star Ancient God, he also saw what the Star Ancient God was currently doing and what he intended to do in the future.

Millions of possible future fate trajectories split off.

What happens in the future might follow one of these fate trajectories becoming reality, or the final outcome might not be among them at all.

Su Yuan examined the Star Ancient God’s subsequent actions, and surprisingly, most involved hiding inside his Divine Kingdom, not daring to come out!

Clearly, the Star Ancient God had learned fear and was utterly terrified.

Su Yuan sneered contemptuously: “Now you know fear? What were you doing earlier?”

Using the power of fate, Su Yuan wove an illusory fate thread within the compass!

He embedded this illusory fate thread into the Star Ancient God’s fate future, then continuously deepened the possibility of this fate thread.

Within the Fate Compass, millions of other possible fate threads grew increasingly thinner, while that single illusory fate thread grew thicker and thicker, its possibility constantly rising. But ultimately, it still couldn’t reach one hundred percent certainty.

Su Yuan put away the Fate Compass and used [Mental Echo] to monitor the Star Ancient God, unsure whether the other party would actually act according to the predetermined fate trajectory.

In the City of Fate, the Goddess of Fate suddenly sensed something and lifted her head.

“The fate rules have been stirred! A certain existence is activating the Great Fate Divine Art!”

The Goddess of Fate’s expression was complex. She was the only Goddess of Fate. In this world, besides herself, the only one who could use fate rules was that Fate Creator God artifact she had given away. But that Fate Creator God artifact had long been damaged – she had been unable to repair it over countless years, and eventually she offered it to the Divine Master she newly pledged allegiance to.

This was the revelation fate rules gave her. If she did this, she would receive immense rewards in the future.

Although she didn’t know what these rewards were, she still proceeded accordingly.

She just never expected that so little time had passed before she detected fate rules being stirred, and to a degree that definitely couldn’t be achieved by that previously damaged Fate Creator God artifact. The Seven Stars Dao Sovereign had repaired the Fate Compass!

Deducing this outcome, the Goddess of Fate was still greatly shocked. That was a Creator God artifact! Beings capable of repairing such artifacts should at least be of the same realm, right?

Could it be that the Seven Stars Dao Sovereign had already reached the Creator God level?

At this moment, a deity hurried over.

“Reporting to the Goddess, the Divine Kingdoms of the nine Ancient Gods from the Natural Alliance have all disappeared! Investigation reveals that the nine Ancient Gods have fallen, killed by… the Divine Master!”

The Goddess of Fate’s gaze sharpened as she said, “When did this happen?”

“Not long ago!”

“What about the Star Ancient God?” the Goddess of Fate asked.

“He has already hidden inside his Divine Kingdom, sealing off all perception. We don’t know the specific situation! Should we take action? Their Natural Alliance actually dared to ambush the Divine Master – that means they’re enemies with us!”

Hearing this, the Goddess of Fate shook her head and said, “No need. The Divine Master has already made his move. Let’s wait and see!”
