Chapter 516: Chapter 192: Struggle Against Fate, Health- Preserving Technique Makes Another Breakthrough (End of the month, asking for monthly votes!!)

Hidden in the clouds.

At this moment, two elders with the characteristics of immortals sit suspended in mid-air, looking at each other. A chessboard is placed between them with black and white pieces crisscrossing it in a mysterious arrangement.

When the Church of All Beings in Longevity Immortal City is completely destroyed, a black piece on the chess game dissipates. The two elders have little reaction to this. One of them simply places a white piece where the black one vanished.

“Another of the black pieces you control has vanished. This is the fifth piece in the last thirty thousand years that has been continuously eradicated. Your so- called plan of life or death does not seem to be succeeding. If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be better for you to admit defeat and support my plan?”

The elder across from him, upon hearing this, smiles faintly and shakes his head, neither dismayed nor concerned.

The number of black pieces on the chessboard is significantly fewer than the white ones. From the conversation earlier, it’s clear that he’s at a disadvantage, yet he remains perfectly composed.

“Daoist friend, you jest. The chess game is far from over. Why are you so hasty to declare a conclusion? Is it because even though I’m in a disadvantageous situation, you still don’t feel confident in your victory, so you hope I’ll surrender willingly?”

“Ridiculous! After all these years, even though your situation is deteriorating, you still refuse to admit defeat. In all these years, when have you ever beaten me, Master Heavenly Luck?

Master Heavenly Fate, I’m advisingyou for your own good. Although my plan might not be flawless, there has been progress over the years. As of now, on the chessboard, the majority of the remaining pieces were placed by me.

On the other hand, you’ve spent all your energy, strategizing at every turn, even risking your own foundation to support your cause, but to what end?

I’m worried that you’re headed for a sorry end. The predecessors have proven that your path doesn’t work. Why insist on a dead end?

Let’s not talk about the distant past. Just after the last era’s catastrophe, had it not been for you stubbornly protecting your goal, you may not even have a chance to compete with me now.”

Master Heavenly Luck seems somewhat disappointed but Master Heavenly Fate remains impassive, “You don’t need to advise me. I have always believed in the Dao I protect. This is the ultimate path.

If we follow your way, we can at most cultivate a few strong characters like ourselves, which is futile in the path of immortality.”

“You…”

Unable to resist shaking his head, Master Heavenly Luck sighed in his heart. Indeed, he’s not very confident, even less so than Master Heavenly Fate.

Since the ancient catastrophe, there have been no more immortals in the world. Countless extraordinary talents and heaven-reaching abilities who could pluck stars and moons and suppress all beneath them, still could not find a path to immortality. They exhausted their lifespans and reluctantly fell.

Since the ancient catastrophe, countless powerful beings have tried all the methods they could think of to break through the final barrier and find a new path to immortality.

Unfortunately, endless times have passed till now, and still, nobody has made any real progress.

Under such circumstances, these so-called heaven-reaching abilities could only live in seclusion in the holy land, delaying the inevitable fall by diverging time.

First Fate Second Luck; after eliminating countless impossible answers, these were determined to be the most likely solutions to unlock the shackles of immortality. However, until now, an effective solution has not been found.

The two players in this game, Master Heavenly Fate and Master Heavenly Luck are the supreme leaders of the experimental plan for Fate and Fortune, seeking the true path to immortality.

However, the experiment of the Fate route led by Master Heavenly Fate has faced setbacks in the past tens of thousands of years. If he hadn’t made a desperate effort a few tens of thousands of years ago to save his chess pieces, his experiment would have ended in failure.

The reason Master Heavenly Fate does this is because he firmly believes that breaking the shackles of fate is the only path to immortality.

Using the fate of everyone like a dragon, pursue the truth of the heaven and earth, change the grand scheme of the universe, break through the heavenly shackles, only then can the locks on the path to immortality be unveiled.

This is the origin of the previously mentioned line of the ‘Seeking Truth Lineage1 in Immortal Dynasty. They were pursuing the freedom for everyone like a dragon, but in the end they met with a tragic outcome and were rejected by the heaven and earth.

However, the ‘Seeking Truth Lineage1 did not sever their lineage. Instead, they divided into several branches, seeking chances to rise once again. This was due to the compulsion of the heavenly and earth rules.

Both the ‘Seeking Truth Lineage1 and the current ‘Church of All Beings’ do not know that their pursuit of everyone’s freedom like a dragon, is just an experimental subject for Master Heavenly Fate to break the path of immortality with the route of fate.

Master Heavenly Fate chose the path of fate while Master Heavenly Luck naturally chose the path of fortune. His layout is rooted in the Immortal Dynasty, accumulating the fruit of fortune, complying with the Heavenly Dao, finally merging the fortune and virtue, successfully breaking through to the Immortal Dao.

Regardless, these two people use the Cultivation World as their experimental field. One accumulates fortune, while the other entangles fate, to pursue the ultimate Dao of immortality, thereby causing a cause and effect entanglement.

The two paths of Fate and Fortune will conflict in reality. If they can’t beat each other, how can they break through the shackles of Heavenly Dao?

Simply put, isn’t this just feeding Gu?

But looking at the current situation, the fortunes of the Immortal Dynasty have won again, which implicitly indicates that the disappearance of black pieces from the game, representing Church of All Beings in Longevity Immortal City, has once again given the wind to the path of fortune.

At this moment, the two of them silently observe the new game, with Master Heavenly Luck knowing he can’t convince Master Heavenly Fate and so, closes his eyes to await the next clash of Fate and Fortune.

At this time, Master Heavenly Fate is not at peace internally. This defeat, in fact, is not unusual. This situation has occurred too many times; if the path of fate was so easy to break through, they wouldn’t have waited this long and have yet to produce final results.
