Chapter 2452 This Is Exactly the Benevolence of Tyrannical Song, the Profound Sage!
"Now, all the cultivators across countless realms must be secretly cursing the one behind the resurrection." thought True Monarch Eternal Fire.
He was the mastermind... the man cursed in secret by cultivators from all realms.
Therefore, this truth must remain hidden from outsiders.
Presently, True Monarch Eternal Fire had covertly advanced to the Seventh Stage Venerable Realm. Ever since he became the custodian of the Confucian Golden Lotus World, he had continuously received feedback from that world, which propelled him from the Sixth Stage to the Seventh Stage. However, this matter was a closely guarded secret of the Confucian faction, never revealed to the public.
With the Confucian Golden Lotus World as his support, as long as he proceeded steadily, ascending to the Eighth Stage Profound Sage Realm was just a matter of time.
Hence, this matter had to be shrouded in secrecy, ensuring that when practitioners from all realms delivered their lectures, they wouldn't remember it and give him unfavorable reviews.
Contemplating this, Eternal Fire calmly embraced his next demise.
...
...
In the midst of despair and sorrow enveloping practitioners from all realms, they were caught in an endless cycle of resurrection.
That terrifying liquid-metal finger pressed down mercilessly time and again!
No matter how many times they perished, that mysterious force unfailingly resurrected them, only to be crushed once more by that heartless golden finger!
It made practitioners from all realms begin to question the meaning of their existence.
Who am I? Where am I? What is the purpose of my existence?
Their existence was merely to perish repeatedly?
Regardless of how often they experienced death, they could never grow accustomed to it.
Each demise offered a completely distinct and fresh experience.
At that moment, even though they were being driven to the brink of collapse, the Eighth Stage Heavenly Tribulation Realm, still striving to construct a stage for Profound Sage Tyrannical Song's lecture, seemed to radiate the brilliance of a sage. Tyrannical Song's lecture this time owed much to the collapse of the Eighth Stage Heavenly Tribulation Realm.
"Let me die... Don't resurrect me anymore... Let me truly die," shed many tears of sorrow among practitioners from all realms.
However, despite their cries and the excruciating pain, practitioners from all realms were growing stronger.
The understanding gained through these cycles of life and death was the most effective way to temper a cultivator's heart.
Death after death would eventually transform into the most precious personal experience, becoming a cherished insight for practitioners from all realms and fortify their wills.
...
...
"This can be said to be a boon bestowed upon all realms by Profound Sage Tyrannical Song," contemplated an Immortal calmly.
This infinite death lecture was clearly a part of Profound Sage Tyrannical Song's life experiences.
All practitioners from all realms were drawn into Tyrannical Song's rhythm and experienced death, but in the context of the lecture, they didn't truly face death!
Furthermore, this lecture's protagonist was based on the will of Profound Sage Tyrannical Song.
Ordinary cultivators lacked the formidable will of Profound Sage Tyrannical Song. If they were genuinely placed within that plot, many might perish two or three times before their will collapsed and perhaps even fall into a coma. Consequently, the tempering effect of the Samsara of Death was significantly diminished.
Yet, by taking on the role of Profound Sage Tyrannical Song, even if a cultivator's willpower was lacking, they would still be guided by Profound Sage Tyrannical Song to experience the cycle of death. They couldn't faint or give up. Thus, the tempering effect of the Samsara of Death would be maximized!
"After this lecture, the willpower of practitioners from all realms will be elevated to a higher level! Profound Sage Tyrannical Song's merits are immeasurable," judged a prominent figure.
The Heavenly Dao had already crumbled, and the realms were inevitably entering the most chaotic era.
During this period, only cultivators with stronger wills could survive!
After undergoing Profound Sage Tyrannical Song's lecture, more practitioners would be capable of surviving in the future.
"Although it appears to be a cruel cycle of life and death on the surface, this is precisely the benevolence of Profound Sage Tyrannical Song," concluded many bigwigs.
They couldn't help but contemplate how much better it would have been if they had encountered Profound Sage Tyrannical Song's lecture in their youth.
This was Profound Sage Tyrannical Song guiding practitioners from all realms to cultivate their 'willpower' attribute.
Unfortunately, for those in their present state, the effect of this Samsara of Life and Death was weak and nearly ineffective.
...
...
How many times had they died?
Practitioners from all realms could no longer keep track.
The liquid-metal fingers above their heads continued to press down relentlessly, unfazed by fatigue.
The power of resurrection was equally stubborn and refused to release all living beings from its grip.
Practitioners from all realms felt that their blood had already saturated the entire space. Their flesh and blood now coated the entire world.
This was a bloodstained, ruthless world, and the bloodstains were all theirs.
How many times could one die in a lifetime?
Aside from the group of people involved in the Confucian faction, 99% of practitioners from all realms had never died so many times!
They felt that on this day, they had exhausted all the 'shares of death' they were destined to experience in their lifetimes.
"Is it not over yet?" some questioned.
"I used to think that the Impregnating Gaze was the most dreadful lecture in all realms... Looking back, I was truly naive."
Profound Sage Tyrannical Song was a man who consistently brought fresh experiences to all realms. He had once made the world feel pain, and this time, he made the world experience death!
"However, were all these experiences Profound Sage Tyrannical Song's own? Did he ever undergo such despair? If it were me, could I endure like Senior Tyrannical Song and persist until now?"
"Hold on, Senior Tyrannical Song! Don't yield to death!"
Perhaps due to the principles of the Stockholm Syndrome, many cultivators were moved by Profound Sage Tyrannical Song after enduring death repeatedly. They even felt admiration from the depths of their hearts.
Finally, the protagonist who had remained silent all along took action... He gently raised a folding fan made of green onion sprouts in his hand and blocked the liquid-metal finger.
During this time, there was certainly some plot taking place, but it had nothing to do with the cycle of life and death and was thus omitted from Profound Sage Tyrannical Song's lecture.
The liquid-metal finger finally relented.
Profound Sage Tyrannical Song had saved the world!
At that moment, all practitioners from all realms were moved to tears.
The Illusory World that had enveloped them dispersed.
Practitioners from all realms found themselves drenched in sweat.
The experiences of death were etched into their very bones. The memories of their bodies being crushed and their flesh torn apart lingered in every muscle and nerve and became their most cherished experiences.
Despite the pain, the gains were more precious than the suffering.
At this moment, practitioners from all realms were willing to contribute their wish power to Profound Sage Tyrannical Song and achieve the merit of his final lecture.
They only hoped that Profound Sage Tyrannical Song would be merciful and spare them.

At that moment, after the first death lecture concluded, Song Shuhang's consciousness was pulled up and quickly ascended!
This was something he had never experienced in his previous divine shows.
Song Shuhang didn't panic.
He could vaguely sense... This should be because the laws of heaven and earth had forcibly interfered with his Sage Seal Condensation and Profound Sage Lecture, and he had received feedback from the laws!
At this moment, the power of heaven and earth that was interfering with his Profound Sage Lecture was retreating.
But where there was interference, there would inevitably be feedback.
He couldn't be sure if this feedback was good or bad. In any case, the feedback fell upon Song Shuhang's body.
In just a few breaths, Song Shuhang's divine sense and mental energy were temporarily strengthened to a level far beyond his actual realm.
In the next moment, Song Shuhang's consciousness came into contact with a very special rule—the divine show rule he was currently employing!
With just a gentle touch, Song Shuhang's consciousness was abruptly returned to the mortal world.
The intense pain, as if the world were collapsing, exploded in his head.
