"A hundred years..." Yuan stood there in a daze, trying to comprehend the magnitude of the situation.
However, the Lord had more disheartening news to convey and continued, "The hundred-year threshold is but the present constraint. If the formation's demand for spiritual energy were to escalate further, that limit could decrease significantly—fifty years, even ten years, becos a distinct possibility."
"Good heavens…" Yuan could no longer muster any strength to stand and took a seat on the ground.
"Is there no way to fix this?" he inquired after a brief pause.
"There are several approaches we can explore," the Lord replied, and he continued, "The first option is to open the gate between Earth and the Nine Heavens and relocate all inhabitants of this world to the Nine Heavens. While this approach would ensure our survival, it would not address the plight of Earth, not to ntion the colossal logistical challenges involved in transporting billions of people to a new realm."
"Even if we were to successfully relocate the entire population of this world, we would still confront nurous formidable challenges within the Nine Heavens," the Lord continued. "Questions about habitation, adaptation to the new environnt, and the reception by the Nine Heavens' residents would all need to be addressed."
"You're absolutely right... Relocating everyone seems like a desperate, last-resort asure at this point," Yuan sighed, acknowledging the complexity and uncertainties involved.
"The second approach, although even more challenging than the first, involves bringing Earth closer to the Nine Heavens, where the abundant spiritual energy could assist the formation. The very necessity of the formation arises from the lack of spiritual energy in this world," the Lord explained.
"In fact, we probably won't even need the formation anymore at that point. This world was created through spiritual energy, so it would naturally die without it. If we move Earth back to where it once belonged, it would save the people and the world. However, the harsh reality is that achieving the relocation of Earth to its original position is an insurmountable feat for anyone in this world," the Lord concluded, emphasizing the sheer impossibility of the task.
"What if we asked soone from the Nine Heavens to help us?" Yuan asked.
"To undertake the colossal task of relocating this entire world without causing harm to its inhabitants or the world itself, we would need the aid of a Cultivation God. I don't know the current number of Cultivation Gods in existence, but in the past, we could have counted them on one hand and still have fingers to spare."
"Even if we were to locate a Cultivation God, the likelihood of them assisting us is slim to none, given that it would demand an imnse amount of power to relocate this world— so much so that it could potentially weaken even a Cultivation God for tens of thousands of years."
"One more problem with this plan. The distance between Earth and the Nine Heavens is so vast that it might take over a hundred years to travel here even for a Cultivation God…" The Lord sighed.
"..."
Yuan was utterly speechless, but he was still trying his best to think of a way to save Earth.
"Now let's talk about the third thod." The Lord suddenly said.
"There's more?" Yuan looked at him with a hopeful gaze.
The Lord nodded and said, "The third thod is the simplest but also very tricky. I am currently unable to replenish my spiritual energy faster than it is being consud, so if we can find a way to recover my cultivation base, we can prolong the formation until we find another solution."
"What do you need?" Yuan then asked.
"I can replenish my spiritual energy through the use of treasures or by directly absorbing it from another individual, but there is no treasure in this world that is strong enough to recover my spiritual energy," the Lord explained.
"Absorbing it from soone... do you an like consuming them?" Yuan swallowed nervously.
"What? No, not at all," the Lord clarified. "I ant that soone could willingly transfer their spiritual energy to . However, there is nobody in this world that has enough spiritual energy to help
— not even you, Yuan, unless you are at the God Ascension realm."
"God Ascension realm…" Yuan closed his eyes to ponder.
"Don't even think about it." Liya suddenly said, and continued, "Even with your talents, you won't reach that level in a million years, much less a hundred years."
"I wasn't thinking of anything like that," Yuan said as he opened his eyes.
He looked at the Lord and asked him, "I have a question. Can a soul without a body have a cultivation base?"
"Huh? What kind of stupid question is that?" Liya responded.
anwhile, the Lord pondered for a mont before speaking, "If that soul was a Cultivator before they had lost their body, it is possible. However, their cultivation will continuously degrade as ti passes. Why do you ask?"
"I might be able to locate a soul with the cultivation of God Ascension and potentially bring them here," Yuan disclosed.
What?! Is that even possible?! How do you intend to accomplish such a feat?" The Lord exclaid with excitent as he eagerly sought more details.
In response to the Lord's question, Yuan retrieved his Emyrean Overlord.
"That is… a Soul Weapon? You don't an to tell …" The Lord understood what Yuan was planning when he saw the Soul Weapon.
"Yup. I will find a soul at the God Ascension realm and store it inside this Soul Weapon, which I can transport between the Nine Heavens and Earth at will."
"Are you insane? There's no way that's possible!" Liya exclaid.
"No… It might be possible…" The Lord muttered in a daze, dumbfounding Liya.
"Are you serious?"
He nodded, "Soul Weapons have the capability to house a single soul, and since they are intricately linked to one's own soul, in theory, it should be possible to transport a soul from the Nine Heavens to Earth through a Soul Weapon. However, the problem of locating the soul of a God Ascension Cultivator still remains. Hell, it might even be easier to find a Cultivation God..."
"I think I know where I can find one," Yuan said. "In fact, I already have soone in mind."
