The so-called 3000 worlds are known as a Minor Chiliocosm, 3000 Minor Chiliocosms are known as a Medium Chiliocosm, and 3000 Medium Chiliocosms are known as Major Chiliocosms. Within these 3000 Major Chiliocosms, each world had its own unique rules.
There was a strange world in this Major Chiliocosm. In the Xuanyuan Continent, where cultivation was respected, only girls could be born. It was also because of this that when the girls in this world grew up to 14 years old, they would awaken an ability that could summon a single man from the Major Chiliocosm to become their Dao companion!
However, a woman could only summon one man in her lifetime. The moment the summoning was completed, the two of them would automatically sign a contract and become eternal lovers. Even if the other party died and their Dao dissipated, they would no longer be able to become Dao companions with others.
It was the will of the heavens. Who could guess it?
Of course, this sort of summoning was completely random. One could summon a genius cultivator with an excellent physique, or they could summon a mortal who didn't know what cultivation was. If a genius was summoned, they would soar into the heavens and become famous. If they summoned a mortal, then from then on, they would no longer be glorious.
No one could control the outcome of the summoning.
In other words, it was up to heaven's will to decide how the dao companion they summoned would turn out.
The population of the Xuanyuan Continent was more than a billion people. There were always some young girls who could not summon Dao companions. Those girls who could not summon Dao companions would have their cultivation talent decrease day by day. In the end, they would lose the qualifications to attain immortality.
Xuanyuan Continent Qinghe State Qinghe Academy
The normally quiet rear mountain of the academy was now bustling with noise and chatter, all because the great summoning formation that was only opened once a year was situated at the rear mountain of the academy.
In the open space in front of the array formation, a group of young girls around the age of twenty or eighteen were gathered. Perhaps it was because they were cultivating, but all of them had bright eyes and white teeth, and were graceful and elegant.
The summoning formation at the back mountain of the academy was well known. It was said that this summoning formation had existed since ancient times and had been passed down until now. The great formation was formed by numerous complicated formation marks, and the entire back mountain was enveloped by the formation. It was said that summoning here greatly increased the success rate of summoning, so every year, a large number of young girls would come here to summon their Dao companions.
Among these young girls, only one of them seemed out of place with the other young girls. Her skin was also smooth and her figure was graceful and elegant. However, compared to the other young girls, she seemed to have an additional aloof temperament.
The other young ladies gathered in groups of three to five and discussed what their ideal Dao companion would be like. Only she sat under a tree alone and flipped through the ancient books in her hands. A cool breeze blew her hair.
She casually tucked her hair behind her ear. Her every movement was indescribably graceful, as if she was a fairy that had descended from the heavens. She was so beautiful that it was unreal.
"I guess it's still the same as it was a few years ago."
As Li Yu thought of this, she was no longer as excited as when she first started summoning.
When Li Yu was 14 years old, she had already started to summon her Dao companion. Now, she was 18 years old and had not summoned her Dao companion for four consecutive years.
Generally speaking, the girls of the Xuanyuan Continent should have already summoned their Dao companions, but she had never managed to summon hers.
Just like the girls who were summoning for the first time before the array formation, Li Yu had also imagined what kind of Dao companion she would summon when she was summoning for the first time.
Was he a brilliant cultivator? Was he a young general in armor? Or was he a young prodigy full of knowledge?
Normally, most people would summon a Dao companion the second or third time, but today was already Li Yu's fifth time summoning.
"I can't summon my Dao companion successfully this time again, right? Am I destined to achieve immortality by myself?"
"Forget it, forget it. I'll achieve immortality on my own!"
Thinking up to this point, Li Yu's eyes also became determined. It was soft on the outside but firm on the inside. This was probably what she was talking about. The difficulty of her path to immortality was simply multiplied several times. In any case, since ancient times, she had never heard of a senior who sought immortality by herself.
"Heh, this is the former genius girl? Li Yu? She's so pathetic."
"Li Yu is too pitiful, she has such high talent, why can't she summon a Dao companion?"
"The once high and mighty cultivation genius has now reached such a state. What a pity."
"Humans are really full of ups and downs. What's the use of having talent?"
"Is this really heaven's will? Li Yu is too pitiful."
The pitiful and malicious words were heard, but Li Yu acted as if she didn't hear them and continued to flip through the ancient book in her hand.
At this moment, a few young ladies walked over with a few men. Their faces were brimming with smiles as if they were little villains who had attained success.
"Senior Sister, this is Gu Chunqiu from the Thousand Illusions Continent. He's the Dao companion I just summoned," a short-haired woman introduced enthusiastically.
"Li Qilin, he's from the same family as me. He's from the Star Continent!" a woman said with a mocking tone.
"This Young Master is…"
Several women began to show off and introduce their Dao companions to add insult to injury. After all, the feeling of being able to ruthlessly trample on the former number one genius, was really too great. Some jealous women, they were even happier about it.
The Xuanyuan Continent created a continent ranking based on the achievements of the men summoned by the girls. The men summoned from the continents at the top of the rankings are probably more talented and are more likely to achieve greater things in the future.
For example, the Thousand Illusions Continent and the Star Continent were both continents ranked in the top hundred of the continent rankings.
Li Yu watched them flaunt silently and wasn't angry. She had a smile on her lips as though she couldn't hear the mockery in their words. She said with a sincere expression, "Congratulations to all junior sisters for successfully summoning your own Dao companions. I wish all junior sisters and their Dao companions can achieve immortality together as soon as possible."
