Lin Wu's words had poured cold water on the hopes of Shirong, but he didn't lose hope as he could see the conditions in his words too.
"How can a human gain this power then, senior?" Shirong questioned.
"It is not necessarily a power… but rather an innate skill. Only people with certain bloodlines or physiques can do that. The dormant state is not a single particular skill either but rather may different such skill that all have the sa effect.
There are even certain immortal tools and formation arrays that have the sa effect. Though the difficult and requirents of using such arrays and tools are very high.
Like I said, it is basically a way of sealing a person of a being. There are so very strong sealing formation arrays that can even freeze the very ti itself." Lin Wu explained.
Hearing all this, Shirong was blown away. Such information was sothing that was entirely unknown in this world and perhaps if it was even known by soone, that person or power would keep it hidden away.
After all, information was power, and such information was basically a bomb.
"I see…" Shirong muttered, feeling a bit disappointed.
But soon he returned to the point that he wanted to ask about. The dormant state was rely one of them.
"If you ca such a long ti ago senior, then why did no one hear about you or find out about you?" Shirong asked.
"Well… back then there was basically no human cultivator strong enough to find out about it. There were barely any humans at all, if I rember correctly. The entire planet was filled with beasts and looked vastly different than now." Lin Wu replied.
"That makes sense. If you ca before any humans, and stayed hidden the entire ti, there was no way for them to find out about it." Shirong understood.
"Indeed. Additionally, I had to stay in a dormant state until my cultivation reached a state where the world would not reject and forcefully send to the immortal realms again." Lin Wu added.
"Forcefully send you?" Shirong furrowed his brows.
"The worlds, or more accurately, the realms within which the worlds exist, have restrictions on them. Certain worlds can only have cultivators below the Immortal Realm, so in the spirit realm, and so only allow mortals to exist.
If a being stronger than that tries to enter it, they would stop them and prevent them from entering. So might even be more violent and try to eliminate the very being itself.
But if a being that originally belonged to the world grew stronger, and reached a point where they were beyond the limits of the world, they would be pushed out of the world. That is what ascension basically is.
And also why most cultivators above the immortal realm cannot enter spirit worlds. Different worlds have different limits and these can change over ti. Usually, the more the cultivators the world has and the higher their average cultivation, the higher the level of the world would be.
So worlds can have high limits from the mont they are created, while so are born with a very low limit. The lowest leveled world is the world that has no life and no energy either." Lin Wu explained in detail, solving several of Shirong's doubts.
But this was rely the start of Shirong's questions as the more he learned, the more he wondered.
"I've wondered how can worlds stop experts from entering it? I an, don't the cultivators get strong so that they can go against the heavens and do whatever they want? Then if they are that strong why can a world stop them?" Shirong questioned after thinking for a bit.
"Well, the answer for that is simple. They are not that strong." Lin Wu stated.
This was an answer Lin Wu knew after seeing the Skull gods' empire. The man had captured several worlds and changed them as he wanted. He had also ravaged many worlds without a care and could enter them even if they had restrictions.
"What?" Shirong had not expected this.
"They are simply not that strong." Lin Wu repeated. "Even if one reaches the immortal realm, they are not strong enough to go against a world's will." He revealed.
"The worlds will…" Shirong muttered.
'The ancestor told us about this once…' Shirong recalled.
He had read about the world's will after learning about it from the ancestor a long ti ago. There was so information written in a book about the world's will and how the entire world was actually sentient.
It was the world that decided how and what happened in it.
That was also why many religions considered the world as a god or a deity too. The heavens were the absolute and gave birth to the myriad of worlds, while the worlds gave birth to the nurous creatures.
Such was the order of the universe.
Though the world' will was often considered as a myth by many as they never ca in contact with it or got the opportunity to see it. But now Shirong had gotten a proper confirmation from Lin Wu, a being that he thought to be beyond this world.
"So senior… just how strong would one have to be to oppose this world… the Ming Dao world?" Shirong finally questioned.
"Now that… is a good question. And is sothing what I wanted to talk to you about too." Lin Wu replied.
"You do?" Shirong was surprised.
"Indeed… that is entirely the reason why I've done all that has happened till now." Lin Wu stated.
Hearing this, the gears in Shirong's brain turned and everything fell into the place.
p
"So what is it, senior? What is the reason?" Shirong asked.
"Like you asked, just how strong would one have to be to go against this world? One would have to be as strong as the Skull God." Shirong's eyes went wide upon hearing this.
