Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 2455  Celestial Qi

Lin Mu's doubts were rather common and something that most immortal cultivators wondered about. After all, the information about the workings of the Celestials was rather limited. Even those that had access to the Celestials or were acquainted with one didn't know much.

At most, they knew that the Celestials were far above them and the conditions to becoming a celestial were very profound and highly secretive. But one thing they knew was that they needed Qi too, Celestial Qi.

Most had the assumption that being able to use the Celestial Qi might be the requirement to becoming a Celestial, similar to how one became a false immortal once they managed to sense and absorb their first wisp of immortal Qi.

Many had tried for millenniums to do this exact thing, doing their hardest to sense Celestial Qi and yet they failed. Those who succeeded almost never told others the true method for it, as the Heavenly restrictions prevented them from doing so.

As such, even though there was a connection between the Immortal and Celestial Powers, they didn't pass on the Celestial Methods.

Otherwise, powers like the Immortal Court wouldn't just stay limited to immortals. They would have never gotten stuck at a bottleneck and stay at the Immortal realm. Of course, the number of people becoming Celestials from the Immortal Court was a lot higher than other powers, but it was still a tiny fragment of the total population of immortals.

Lin Mu had thought about it often but had not gotten much farther with it, until today when Xukong finally spoke about it.

"It's not just because the Rust Sky World is going to become a Celestial World." Xukong said calmly. "Every world has Celestial Qi in it… its just the quantity that varies." He revealed.

"What?!" This was rather shocking to Lin Mu. "You mean to say… Even in the Mortal worlds there is Celestial Qi?!" He asked in disbelief.

"Yes." Xukong confirmed. "I believe it is fine to tell you now… for some reason, the heavenly restrictions are lighter than before." He added.

"They're lighter?" he hadn't expected that. "Did something change?" he wondered.

"I don't know… They are quite mysterious and even I can't tell how they function fully. But I reckon your recent encounters with the Celestial and Celestial adjacent powers has made them find you less of a 'target'." Xukong explained. "It could also just be a momentary lapse in its functioning, too."

"That can happen?" Lin Mu's eyes went wide. 'The Heavenly Restrictions can have malfunctions too?' it seemed almost unbelievable to him.

And it wasn't just him either. If anyone else were to hear it they would find it to be absolutely ridiculous too.

The one thing that was equal and just to all the beings were the Heavenly Dao and the Heavenly Will. They dictated the laws of the entire cosmos and how it would work. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

To them they couldn't make any mistakes.

"It is very rare, of course… but it happens." Xukong stated. "Perhaps it's because the Rust Sky World is about to become Celestial World the restrictions are reducing bit by bit." He added.

"Hmm… I don't know if that's good for us or not." Lin Mu muttered.

"Indeed, it's hard to tell what the future will hold." Xukong agreed. "But yes, even the Mortal worlds such as the Xiaofan world will have Celestial Qi." "So does that mean absorbing Celestial Qi or sensing it is the requirement to becoming a Celestial?" Lin Mu finally questioned.

"Partially, yes…" Xukong said carefully. "There are more conditions, but it seems like I cannot reveal them just yet either." He could now feel the restrictions again.

"The Restrictions don't allow that." Lin Mu understood.

"They're lighter but not fully gone." Xukong spoke. "We'll have to monitor how much it changes, I suppose." He added.

"What else can you tell me about it?" Lin Mu wondered.

"Let's see. I'll speak whatever I can before it gets me to stop." Xukong was curious too. "I guess we can start with Celestial Qi itself… It's basically a superior form of Qi that is only produced by Celestial Bodies." He revealed without having to stop.

"Oh? Celestial Bodies… that means the Worlds, Planets and Stars?" Lin Mu inquired.

"Correct." Xukong confirmed. "There are exceptions to this, but the majority of Celestial Qi in the universe is made by them." He added.

"I see… So it doesn't matter what level of world it is, it can make Celestial Qi." Lin Mu was highly intrigued. "The level of the world only dictates how much Celestial Qi it can make which then dictate whether Celestials can be born on them." Xukong revealed more. "Does that mean theoretically a world like Xiaofan World could also have a Celestial?" Lin Mu questioned.

"The chances are slim but it can be possible. Though at its current state Xiaofan world can probably only support a single Celestial." Xukong answered. "So that means a Celestial can only absorb Celestial Qi from a world?" Lin Mu asked next. "What about the Stars and other worlds?

"It is of course possible, but not without risks." Xukong replied. "In the case of stars, the risk is quite obvious."

"Ah, true… they will just burn to death." Lin Mu understood. "But what about other worlds?" "Absorbing Celestial Qi from other worlds is simply harder. I cannot fully explain, but usually a Celestial is limited to a single world they are familiar with in matters of absorbing Celestial Qi." Xukong answered. "So they can only cultivate on that world…" Lin Mu grasped the meaning.

"Indeed… But those that are of a high level, such as the Saintess, do not have that restriction." Xukong spoke. "But even she would need more effort in order to absorb the Celestial Qi."

"Is that what the Saintess has been doing?" Lin Mu wondered.

"Yes." Xukong confirmed. "It takes a lot of effort and focus to do it. If it were any other Celestial, they wouldn't be able to repeat it as easily here."
