Chapter 234: Entry Group "Life Betting Immortality"! (10k)_2
It was considered an entry that could be both offensive and defensive, and it was actually one of the better Purple Entries, just too random.
And he personally...
often avoided entries with such excessive randomness, as they truly could bring a vast array of surprises, leaving you completely unaware of what path tomorrow or even next year might hold.
During his recent Heavenly Patrol, he had collected a quite interesting set of entries called "Life Betting Immortality."
The name sounded quite domineering.
Life Betting Immortality!
He personally preferred to call it the gambler's entry set. Originally, the set did not include the Purple Entry "Alchemy Immortal," but he felt that this entry could be added to the set in the future.
"Betting Everything Ten Times" + "Life as Thin as Paper" + "I Control My Fate, Not Heaven" + "Life and Death Contract" + "Red Spider Lily" + "Fine Line Between Strength and Weakness" + "Turning Bad Luck into Good Luck" + "Nine Deaths and One Life" + "Life towards Death."
This set was composed of nine entries, making it the set with the highest number of entries among all he had collected.
And there was something absolutely unique about this set!
That was—
none of the entries in this set could be obtained through an entry jade slip. They could only be potentially acquired randomly upon breaking through a Great Realm, and as for the probability, well, he had chosen many entries before and had never seen any of these nine.
Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Divinity Transformation, Void Refining, Unification.
A Qi Refinement cultivator, even if he managed to smoothly cultivate up to Unification, would only get six chances of three choices each for entries, which shows how difficult it was.
But since this set of entries existed, it at least proved it was theoretically feasible.
The sets in the "Entry Encyclopedia" were not always owned by someone; mostly, they were listed as theoretically feasible, and you weren't strictly required to follow the entries of a particular set. Missing one or two, substituting similar ones, or others with nearly the same effects, was not impossible.
In this "Life Betting Immortality" set.
Apart from the first entry "Betting Everything Ten Times," the effects of the remaining eight entries were similar, which was through a random method, to greatly enhance or significantly weaken your cultivation speed, spell power, and overall strength for a certain period.
The effect of the first entry "Betting Everything Ten Times" was to give you ten chances to reshuffle all your entries.
Although you couldn't obtain the remaining eight entries, you could get the jade slips of the corresponding grade for those eight entries. Whatever the effect, it didn't matter; next... the gambling began!
Gambling on whether you could randomly obtain those eight entries.
Theoretically, even the possibility of obtaining two was very small, and if you could randomly obtain all eight, then when all eight entries randomly boosted your strength...
A Void Refining first-level cultivator could easily overpower a ninth-level one without any issue, and if a Unification expert didn't use a "Killing Move," you might even take on an early stage Unification.
Of course.
That was the theory, but in practical terms, the likelihood of forming this entry set was almost none. First, you must randomly obtain the "Betting Everything Ten Times" entry, which is a rigid condition, and then start collecting the corresponding grade jade slips for the other entries to gamble with your life.
Even if you really gambled successfully, the effect... is quite hard to imagine.
Eight completely random entries determining your strength, making your strength changeable every day!
He did not like this feeling, and in his collected Entry Encyclopedia, the description of this entry set was also theoretically feasible, but no one had tried it in reality, yes, no one had ever tried it.
After all, any creature with a normal brain would not gamble on this.
Gamblers do not end well.
...
Sitting cross-legged on the Xuantian Throne, Chen Qiu shook his head without further thought and prepared to continue his meditative cultivation, already at the second level of Void Refining, he intended to advance to the third level.
Just then—
The brown bear Young Clan Leader, holding a willow branch and wearing a kasaya, suddenly walked quickly toward him, and upon reaching him, he carefully reported, "Sect Master, deep underground behind the hills of Chao Tian Sect, we have discovered a..."
"..."
After patiently listening, Chen Qiu turned to face the brown bear holding the willow branch. It had to be said, such a fluffy creature was quite endearing. Then, he gestured for the bear to come a bit closer, and while rubbing its head, he sent his Divine Sense into the small world's rear hills to investigate.
It had been a long while since he last entered the small world, as the rules of Heavenly Dao did not allow him in.
Thus, he hadn't noticed the changes within the small world. He had absolute control over this small world, but he suddenly realized that he could not know or investigate what was in that corridor, which lay outside his control range.
This was indeed strange.
Chao Tian Sect was located in the small world, absolutely isolated from the outside world. Where could that corridor possibly lead?
After pondering for a moment, he looked up at the brown bear before him and spoke softly.
"I haven't found anything unusual for now, I'll check again after the retreat is over."
"Understood."
The brown bear Young Clan Leader nodded solemnly, then went back to patrolling, which was actually unnecessary, as nobody would come here, or rather even if someone did come, a brown bear with Golden Core Cultivation would be of little use. But he couldn't just sit and wait for the Spirit Gathering Array to run out of Spirit Stones before adding more.
