"SkyNet Level One System, officially activated!"
In his mind, a thought flashed: "If the Liu clan are not kings, the world shall strike them down!"
Fang Ming smiled and said, "Those not of the Human Race who dare cultivate the Heaven-Shielding Method shall be struck down by the world!"
"The Law Net reaches the heavens, detecting the Primordial World. Anyone cultivating the Heaven-Shielding Method who is not of the Human Race..."
"Shall be killed on the spot! Killed on the spot!"
"This includes those who cultivate the original Heaven-Shielding Method, or those who have drawn inspiration from its theories to create their own versions... It doesn't matter if it's original or derivative; as long as it bears even a trace of the Heaven-Shielding Method, the Law Net reaching the heavens can detect it all!"
"For Golden Immortals, we shall unleash the Quasi-Saint tribulation!"
"For Grand Unity Golden Immortals, we shall unleash the Saint tribulation!"
Fang Ming, having merged the arcane and fantasy realms, infused his own Heaven-Shielding Emperor level power into the SkyNet!
His consciousness expanded to encompass the entire Primordial World, penetrating every corner!
While the Heaven-Shielding Emperor possessed immense power, his precision was insufficient. A singular Heaven-Shielding system could not achieve such deep, microscopic detection across the entire Primordial World!
However, the arcane realm could!
The Arcane Net, worth a thousand Origin Points, would cause a mage to instantly lose their casting ability and become a mortal if it collapsed!
Come to think of it, wasn't this a form of deep, microscopic control down to the fundamental particles?
If the Arcane Net collapsed, all mages would immediately become mortals!
Regardless of the magnitude, the Arcane Net system was stronger than the Heaven-Shielding Emperor at the microscopic level!
And when the two were combined…
It became absolute power! Merged with the ultimate microscopic control that reached down to fundamental particles!
From the Heavenly Court, Fang Ming could launch attacks on any corner of the Primordial World!
"No! There are still flaws within this!"
Fang Ming spent twenty thousand years of experience from the Arcane Net system, merging it with the indigenous cultivation knowledge of the Primordial World and the knowledge of the fantasy realm's Heaven-Shielding system, to achieve the SkyNet!
But the SkyNet, after all, was a grand fusion and creation!
Fang Ming could not achieve perfect fusion, and thus, flaws remained!
"From the Human Race's Heavenly Court, the SkyNet's main body, which is where I am located..."
"The further away it is, the less power I can exert!"
"Beyond the Thirty-Third Heaven, at the very membrane of heaven and earth, my Heaven-Shielding Emperor cultivation would be unable to contend even with a Quasi-Saint!"
"To use this to remotely deal with the Five Saints of the Heavenly Dao, I'm afraid it would be insufficient!"
Fang Ming knew that the SkyNet he had fused, despite the immense effort, was riddled with loopholes!
In the Western lands, the two Saints governed Buddhism!
On Kunlun Immortal Mountain, Primordial Heavenly Venerable reigned supreme, presiding over the ancestral court of Taoism!
On Jinbie Island, the Sect Master of Jie Sect received the homage of ten thousand demons!
In Shouyang Mountain, the Grand Pure Saint looked down upon all beings!
If the Five Saints of the Heavenly Dao were to face Fang Ming's Heaven-Shielding Emperor cultivation directly, they would undoubtedly be defeated!
However…
If Fang Ming, from within the Heavenly Court, relied on the SkyNet to exert power remotely against them…
Pray tell, how far was the center of the Heavenly Court from Kunlun Immortal Mountain, Shouyang Mountain, Jinbie Island, and the Western lands?
In terms of remote exertion, attempting to obliterate Saint-level powerhouses would instead put Fang Ming at a disadvantage!
As for beyond the Thirty-Third Heaven…
Palaces like Zixiao Palace and Wa Huang Heaven, and the Great Thousand Worlds!
These were even more out of the question!
The SkyNet only covered the Primordial World and could only control the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, not the chaotic primordial energy!
Who knew what this chaotic primordial energy, a substance that did not give rise to life, truly was?
If the Saints could hide in the chaos, Fang Ming would be dumbfounded!
Let alone Saints!
If a Golden Immortal, with sufficient ability, could hide in Wa Huang Heaven, Zixiao Palace, or even simply leave the range covered by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and enter the chaos.
Existing within the chaotic primordial energy!
Beyond the Thirty-Third Heaven, beyond the membrane of heaven and earth!
Fang Ming would immediately be dumbfounded!
The SkyNet system did not know when it would become powerful enough to analyze what chaotic energy was!
"Red Dust Immortal? Immortal Laws? Self-produced life-generating substances? The difference between chaotic energy and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth?"
Fang Ming sighed.
The more he knew, the more the unknown appeared!
Perhaps, as long as the SkyNet could analyze chaotic energy, he could achieve Red Dust Immortal status and create life-generating substances!
But these were for later!
In Fang Ming's eyes, the figures of Bai Ze the Demon Saint, the Azure Hill Fox God, and Lu Ya the Golden Crow were reflected.
These three were currently studying the Heaven-Shielding Method and creating versions suitable for themselves!
"Hahahaha!"
Fang Ming smiled slightly.
"You want to catch up to the great era? The new era has no place for you!"
"You are not worthy of enjoying the era of virtual universes!"
"Even less so, of enjoying the great era of cultivating the Heaven-Shielding Method!"
"Old antiques of the old era... The SkyNet system! Annihilate all demons! Annihilate all demons!"
"I, Fang Ming, am the will of heaven! If heaven wants your demon race dead, how can your demon race not be destroyed!"
"Countless lightning tribulations shall strike you into dust! Until death do us part! You want to challenge higher levels?"
"Hahaha!"
...
In the Primordial World.
A remote location.
Within a cave so secluded it was beyond imagination.
Bai Ze the Demon Saint had been hiding here since escaping the Demon Court!
He cultivated the Heavenly Dao method! He severed his good corpse, thus achieving the early stage of Quasi-Saint!
A newly promoted Quasi-Saint! One of the Ten Great Demon Saints!
Bai Ze the Demon Saint was naturally gifted with the ability to predict fortune and misfortune, and to calculate future risks, making him invincible!
Indeed, cultivators of the Primordial World's methods all possessed the ability to divine destiny.
But the level of this ability varied.
When the Human Race attacked the Heavenly Court, among the Seven Great Demon Saints, six of them had not foreseen that Di Jun would betray them!
Only Bai Ze the Demon Saint, with his exceptional talent, was considered truly peerless in the art of divination.
He had long foreseen that Di Jun, that madman, would have malicious intentions when cornered and desperate!
He would definitely take drastic actions!
Bai Ze the Demon Saint was not someone who completely obeyed Di Jun's will!
While Di Jun was indeed highly respected in Bai Ze the Demon Saint's heart, when it came to taking his life, would Bai Ze the Demon Saint obediently surrender?
Respecting Di Jun, being loyal to Di Jun, and sacrificing his life for Di Jun to become a consumable were two different matters!
If a king orders his subject to die, must the subject die?
Bai Ze the Demon Saint truly had no intention of obeying Di Jun as his "king" anymore!
To treat me, Bai Ze the Demon Saint, as a mere consumable!
It would be enough to send a good corpse to deceive Di Jun into battle!
"Hmph!"
"I have already used my means to seize the Heaven-Shielding Method from the Human Race!"
"What is it called... The Void Sutra?"
Bai Ze, in the cave, spread out the sutra.
He used his Quasi-Saint Dao fruit to study its contents!
"Suitable for the Human Race? Hahaha! You underestimate the Great Divine Powers of the Quasi-Saint realm from the Primordial World!"
"Have I, Bai Ze, lived for billions of years in vain? If this Heaven-Shielding Method cannot be cultivated by the demon race, then I can do nothing!"
"But I, Bai Ze, clearly see that there is a possibility for the demon race to cultivate this Heaven-Shielding Method!"
"I strongly suspect that in the Heaven-Shielding world, there was originally a Heaven-Shielding Method suitable for the demon race to cultivate! It's just that this Human Emperor Fang Ming did not impart it!"
"Since it exists! And it is reasonable! Then there is a method to deduce it! Behold the power of the Great Divine Powers of the Quasi-Saint realm from the Primordial World!"
