Chapter 994: Chapter 925: The Thousand chanisms Path
Zhang San looked at Yuan with skepticism, not believing it was just that he lived a bit longer.
After all, Zhang San could be certain that Yuan was not a Transformation; he was a pure human race.
Yet, even such a person lived longer than an old dragon, it just seed wrong.
However, Yuan did not seem to care about the implications of Zhang San’s words and seriously changed the topic.
“Indeed, the whole Thousand chanisms Path is becoming increasingly strange.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang San beca curious.
“I’ve noticed sothing off about the Thousand chanisms Path too. What’s wrong with it, can you tell ?”
Yuan glanced at Zhang San, and replied: “You first!”
Zhang San pouted and said, “I’m just trying to trick you. If I knew, would I need to ask?”
Yuan chuckled and began, “Actually, problems with the Thousand chanisms Path began a long ti ago. But this issue must be explained from the structure of the Thousand chanisms Path.”
So, Zhang San followed Yuan back while listening to the stories related to the Thousand chanisms Path from this venerable elder whose age was beyond knowing.
The Thousand chanisms Path is different from other paths.
The Thousand chanisms Path is a great path composed of nine different smaller paths, and the master of this path is known as Thousand chanisms.
Beneath Thousand chanisms, there are nine positions, called Hundred Refinents.
The position of Hundred Refinents Master is the title for the one who individually governs one of the smaller paths within the Thousand chanisms Path.
The nine Hundred Refinents beneath the Thousand chanisms Path in this world are: Woodcraft Making, Frost Creation, Iron Refinent, Star Chart, Ingenuity, Yanshi, Rune, Divine Statues, and Spiritual Artifact.
Upon hearing this, Zhang San was puzzled and interrupted Yuan, who was continuously explaining: “Except for Woodcraft Making, Rune and Ingenuity, I haven’t heard of the others!”
Yuan gave a wry smile and said, “It’s right that you haven’t heard of them. Among these nine Hundred Refinents, Yanshi, Divine Statues, and Spiritual Artifact have completely disappeared.”
“And Thousand chanisms himself mastered the Iron Refinent path. Rune and Ingenuity have lost their Hundred Refinents Masters. The remaining three paths with Hundred Refinents Masters controlling the Thousand chanisms Path are Woodcraft Making, Star Chart, and Frost Creation.”
Zhang San curiously asked, “So the crisis of the Thousand chanisms Path is that one-third has disappeared, two-ninths have no Hundred Refinents Masters, and the final three Hundred Refinents Masters do not respect this Red Dust Immortal?”
Yuan shook his head and pouted, saying: “It’s more serious than that.”
“Zhang San, you do not know, in this world the Six Paths, each great path has a different way of Red Dust Immortal succession. For example, your Imperial Path, it is through the succession of the Emperor’s position that the Red Dust Immortal succession occurs, regardless of the strength of the Red Dust Immortal. Even in the past when Overlord Xiang Yu was about to achieve the qualification for Red Dust Immortal, he was ultimately defeated by Red Dragon Liu Bang!”
“Similarly, you are familiar with the All Things Path, and have even witnessed the succession of the Red Dust Immortal in the All Things Path. So you naturally should know, the Red Dust Immortal in the All Things Path must be a newly risen in order to kill the forr Red Dust Immortal.”
“As for the Path of Ghosts and Gods. It’s confidential…”
Zhang San was filled with annoyance!
Feeling that Yuan knew a lot, yet the very parts he was interested in were kept confidential, was this necessary?
“And the Thousand chanisms Path is very interesting; Thousand chanisms suppresses Hundred Refinents, but also has a major issue, that is Thousand chanisms needs to maintain the operation of the entire Thousand chanisms Path, preventing many inheritances from being severed. If four of the nine Hundred Refinents are lost, the whole Thousand chanisms Path becos unstable; if five are lost, the Thousand chanisms Path collapses.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang San stared wide-eyed at Yuan.
“Does that an, the Thousand chanisms Path is already very unstable? If two more Hundred Refinents disappear, won’t the Red Dust Immortal of the Thousand chanisms Path lose the Red Dust Immortal Position?”
Yuan nodded slightly and said with great seriousness: “Therefore, through various ans, Thousand chanisms resolved the Rune and Ingenuity Hundred Refinents Masters, and instead spread these paths, especially Rune, which directly beca one of the three major mainstream combat techniques.”
“Thus, these two paths aren’t severed but an issue arose; these two Hundred Refinents paths find it hard to develop further. Each is akin to half a Hundred Refinents path. Still, this allows them to remain stable, avoiding disappearance.”
Zhang San asked curiously: “So these two Hundred Refinents paths are equivalent to one path with a Hundred Refinents Master?”
Yuan laughed: “The amusing part is, losing the Hundred Refinents Master ans these paths can’t be considered complete Hundred Refinents paths. Yet they aren’t simply half paths either. So, by having these two paths lose their Hundred Refinents Masters, you can understand that both paths won’t vanish, achieving almost the effect of having the two paths still exist.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang San suddenly understood.
“Even though three Hundred Refinents paths have been lost, there are now five and a half paths remaining! So even if another path loses its inheritance later on, there will still be four and a half, not just four. Thus, Thousand chanisms can still continue being the Red Dust Immortal?”
Yuan nodded.
“Therefore, for Thousand chanisms, the most important task is to find a way to establish new Hundred Refinents paths in this world. Only with this can his position on this world remain stable.”
“But do you know? In the lineage of master and apprentice, the biggest issue has always been that many tis the master is unwilling to pass all their knowledge to the disciple. It usually occurs when the master is on their last legs. Yet no one can ensure that their end is a peaceful one. Hence, over the long years, the Hundred Refinents lineage dwindles more and more.”
“As the Red Dust Immortal of the Thousand chanisms Path, naturally it’s hoped to create more Hundred Refinents paths to make the Thousand chanisms Path stable, or even prosperous. Unfortunately, the Red Dust Immortal of the Thousand chanisms Path in this world lacks such ability. On the contrary, with the constant disappearance of inheritance in the Thousand chanisms Path, he had to conceive such thods to secure his position as Red Dust Immortal.”
“So…”
At this point, Yuan suddenly sighed mournfully.
“I thought one day he would do sothing extre to stabilize his position as Red Dust Immortal. I just didn’t expect him to choose to accept the power of the Outer God.”
At this mont, Zhang San realized the complexity of the elderly Yuan before him.
Because now in his tone and manner, it was entirely as if narrating an event personally experienced, even from an equal standpoint.
To treat a Red Dust Immortal with such an attitude, could it be that Yuan is…
At this mont, Zhang San had many conjectures about Yuan’s identity, but he imdiately thought of another question.
Does this an there is another Red Dust Immortal of the Thousand chanisms Path behind the Outer God Incarnation in the north?
