Mad God Evolution-Chapter 1523 - 1414

The thought had just arisen when Lv Zhong instinctively shook his head.

Then, his eyes lit up!

Under normal circumstances, annihilating a Sage would definitely cause a tremor in the Heavenly Dao. Not only would it not yield any Merit, but on the contrary, it would provoke the anger and rebound of the universe’s Heavenly Dao. This would cause the universe to reject the one who annihilated the Sage in various ways.

But this is just the general case.

There are two special circumstances!

One is when the number of Sages in the universe exceeds the capacity that the Heavenly Dao can endure. Naturally, the Heavenly Dao might want to destroy a certain number of Sages to maintain the stability of the universe. After all, the presence of Sages also involves absorbing the infinite energy of the universe. Once there are too many Sages, a large part of the energy, resources, and Destiny of the universe are concentrated in the hands of these Sages. This is absolutely not conducive to the growth of other living beings.

The second circumstance is when a Sage has provoked too much karma, inciting the wrath of both heaven and people. Once a certain number of living beings exert a supreme level of resentment and hexing power onto the Sage, if that Sage falls, even the Heavenly Dao cannot protect him...

After pondering over this, Lv Zhong sensed the plight of the Du Tian Sacred Star again. He also sensed the aura of the beings that had escaped calamity, and suddenly, Lv Zhong laughed.

At this moment, he truly understood that killing a Sage might not trigger the backlash from the Celestial Way!

More importantly, Lv Zhong faintly understood a rule above the Great Path!

The existence of Sages is absolutely detrimental to the universe’s development and expansion!

The Heavenly Dao needs Sages to act as its representatives to maintain the order of the universe. That’s why it allows a certain number of powerful beings to reach the Sage Realm, indirectly helping it manage the universe.

But for the Great Path, the role of the Heavenly Dao and the Sages is the same. It also selectively picks out some to manage the universe.

The Heavenly Dao can abandon the Sages!

The Great Path can also abandon the Heavenly Dao!

Sages are born, their Merit is boundless. Sages fall, their Karma is infinite.

This is the most basic common sense!

But common sense does not mean that all Sages who are allowed to live can harvest boundless Merit. Nor does it mean that the annihilation of a Sage will generate endless Karma upon the annihilator.

Ordinary living beings, even Emperor-level powerhouses, will generate Merit and Karma.

Why wouldn’t the same Merit and Karma exist within a Sage?

In general, the Merit accumulated within a Sage far exceeds the presence of Karma.

But in general, does not mean absolutely!

Some Sages have Karma within them that far exceeds the power of Merit!

"Haha, I understand now!" Lv Zhong exclaimed loudly, suddenly opening his eyes.

Instantly, two dazzling beams of golden light shot out from Lv Zhong’s eyes.

With this epiphany, Lv Zhong will never be timid in his future battles against Sages.

"Hehe, whenever I make an enemy of a Sage in the future, those with immense Merit can be lured into the space of the Great Annihilation Pearl to be eliminated. In this way, Karma cannot find me. As for those Sages with immense Karma, I must find ways to increase their Karma, even to the point of amplifying the resentment of the universe’s living beings against them..."

Lv Zhong chuckled to himself.

This battle with Bai Xuanfeng made him understand many hidden rules of the universe.

He also realized that the infinite Karma within his body had suddenly transformed into a vast amount of Merit, in which the countless living beings of the Tiandu Sacred Star also played a significant role in secret.

It was because of the resentment and hatred from billions of beings, including powerful Immortal Kings, Immortal Emperors, and other powerhouses, that Bai Xuanfeng lost the support of the people and the will of heaven.

It was also for this reason that the phenomenon of "Saint Collapse Heavenly Cry" only continued for twenty minutes.

Bai Xuanfeng himself had incurred Karma, and combined with the Karma and resentments from the countless living beings that had perished, led to the Heavenly Dao of the Heavenly Spirit Universe to forsake him.

Even the Heavenly Dao had given up on Bai Xuanfeng. This indicated that Bai Xuanfeng deserved to be killed!

Lv Zhong annihilated Bai Xuanfeng, and not only was he without fault, but he also gained merit.

Therefore, the Karma of slaughtering sages invading Lv Zhong’s Sea of Consciousness instantly transformed into the Merit of Annihilation.

Of course, if Bai Xuanfeng had perished within the space of a Tao Artifact like the Great Annihilation Pearl, then Lv Zhong would not have been able to obtain such immense Merit Power. Naturally, Lv Zhong would not be subjected to an equivalent backlash of Karma either!

"Haha, this battle has taught me so much. From now on, even when battling higher-ranking Sages, I will not fear any backlash of power..."

With a delighted smile, Lv Zhong awoke from his daze.

The Merit Power within his Sea of Consciousness was simply too vast.

With a thought, Lv Zhong drew out half of the Merit Power to refine the [Thousand Autumn Years Blade].

After all, Tao Artifacts like the Great Annihilation Pearl, Gu Long Knife, Nine Xuan Cold Dragon Ice Coffin, and Hongmeng Dragon Pearl could no longer be refined by Merit Power.

But the [Thousand Autumn Years Blade] was different. Still a Chaos Supreme Treasure, the addition of Merit Power could help it slay without incurring Karma. It could also aid in its further evolution and quality enhancement.

As for the other half of the Merit Power, it was all used by Lv Zhong to nourish his Soul Merit Golden Body.

With such enormous Merit Power for further refinement, Lv Zhong’s Soul Merit Golden Body became increasingly solid and powerful. And it could reach a true state where it repelled all demons and was immune to all evil.

At the same time, the further strengthening of the Soul Merit Golden Body also allowed Lv Zhong’s cultivation of the Microcosmic Spirit Condensation Technique to advance to the fourteenth layer of realm, steadily raising his Saint’s Divine Consciousness to the Top-grade Peak State of a second order Sage.

What excited Lv Zhong even more was that his physical body had also been refined as if it were a Merit Supreme Treasure. It could now at least rival an Innate Supreme Treasure of the Top Grade Peak State.

In short, Lv Zhong benefited tremendously this time!

...

Having snapped out of his daze and looking at the nearly ruined Du Tian Sacred Star, Lv Zhong couldn’t help but feel a twinge of discomfort in his heart.

While it’s true that he held the moral high ground in the great battle with Bai Xuanfeng, it also indirectly led to the annihilation of countless living beings because of him.

This caused Lv Zhong some distress.

In this battle,to be frank, it was the Bai Family that provoked the fight first.

It started with Bai Qi wanting to forcibly take Yun Shuiyao and Hu Mei, the two women. Then, after Lv Zhong shattered Bai Qi’s Yuanshen with Thunderous Force, the Bai Family’s people who were protective of their own kept coming one after another, leading to a rapid escalation of the battle.

As a result, nineteen Emperor-level strongholds of the Bai Family besieged Lv Zhong. He broke the Ten Thousand Beasts Array and annihilated a dozen of Emperor-level strong beings.

As the saying goes, when the small ones are dealt with, the big ones come along.

Then Bai Xuanfeng arrived.

For the face of the Bai Family, for revenge, and for the top-class Magical Treasure on Lv Zhong, Bai Xuanfeng went completely mad. He would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let Lv Zhong go unscathed.

As a result, Bai Xuanfeng not only failed to suppress Lv Zhong but also created boundless slaughter with a super Ju Feng.

"I do not kill Boren, but Boren died because of me——"

With a slight sigh, Lv Zhong resolved to do something for the nearly ten billion living beings who had fallen.

With a thought, Sky’s Holy Light Water turned into Spirit Fog and swept over the Du Tian Sacred Star.

At the same time, the Chaos 10th Grade Golden Lotus also swiftly appeared...(To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it on Starting Point (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please read on m.qidian.com.)
