Karmic luck

Fate or Karmic Luck (气运 qiyun), slightly different from karma. 
== Info ==
Karmic luck is something ephemeral and mysterious, but it truly exists. Those who can become peak experts all possess extremely great karmic luck.
No matter how high a person's cultivation base reaches, no matter how strong they become, if their karmic luck is terrible, they will constantly run into pitfalls and dangers, and they will sooner or later fall.
This so-called karmic luck was a blessing the heavens bestowed on its creatures. Although there was no solid evidence that proved karmic luck existed, anyone who had cultivated to their level firmly believed in it.
The slightest increase in karmic luck could completely change a person's destiny. It could turn danger into safety, disaster to fortune. It was an extremely inconceivable existence.
== Nine Dragons ==
That was karmic luck, the most ephemeral existence within heaven and earth. Some people believed it, and some people didn’t. No one was even able to bring out proof of its existence.
However, in the face of this divine light, everyone felt a kind of sacred blessing silently coming over them. They felt at peace and happy as if the world was looking after them.
An incense stick’s worth of time later, enough divine light had gathered that the lotus above Guo Ran slowly bloomed. A foot-long sphere of light fell from it.
It shone with all the colors of the rainbow. That light was sacred and divine. Everyone sensed a powerful blessing energy as soon as it appeared.
“This is karmic luck. Once he absorbs it, it’s said that even if he just randomly bends down and digs, he’ll be able to dig up a treasure. Even wanting to die will become difficult for him.” People looked enviously at that sphere. That was a treasure you couldn’t buy no matter how much money you had.
Nine Dragons Roar at the Heavens is the ultimate karmic luck.
== Gifts ==
Things obtained through rare opportunities were all related to karma and destiny. In other words, the things you could obtain through opportunities were all based on a person's karmic luck. If you split what you gained with others, then that was equivalent to splitting your karmic luck.
In the same manner, those who liked to steal other people's treasures, things that were never destined to be with them but they had snatched through martial force, were also stealing a portion of that person's karmic luck.
Karmic luck was something illusory and profound. There was no exact proof of its existence, but the majority of cultivators all firmly believed in its existence. 
== Long Chen's karmic luck ==
As the Eastern Wasteland Bell explains, geniuses are products of heaven and earth condensing their karmic luck into certain people. They are blessed by the heavens, and from birth, it is fated that their luck will be better than others. They are heaven and earth's favorites.
However, Long Chen's luck is unbelievably low. As for why, the Eastern Wasteland Bell explains that, "In truth, you yourself should know the answer as to why your luck is so lacking. There's no need to ask the question if you know the answer. In this case, there are many things that relate to some secrets. I can't say them. If I did, it wouldn't be good for you or me. All I can tell you is that it is fated that you will not be able to live off luck. You'll have to rely on power to fight for what you get, and nothing will be given to you for free."perhaps because Long Chen is a divergent so the heavenly daos are against him; or because he lost his Spirit Bone, Root, Blood; or because he has the NSHBA, etc.
However, Xuan Master, Li Tianxuan, believes that he actually has good karmic luck, but it got exhausted when he gained the Nine Star Hegemon Body art (NSHBA), and is then in karmic debt. Till that debt is repaid, his luck would remain to affect him negatively. 
== Son of fate ==
In chapter 1040, when Long Chen is injured he hears a mysterious voice calling him the son of fate. 
Long Chen, can you hear my call?" Suddenly, a voice rang out within Long Chen's soul. That was a very familiar voice.
"Who are you?" asked Long Chen.
"There's no need to ask that question. All you need to know is that you are the son of fate. Millions of lives rest in your hands. Hurry and grow stronger, or it will be too late," pressed that voice.
"What will be too late? Can you not explain it clearly?!" raged Long Chen. Even now, he didn't know what this voice was or what it was talking about.
"You're too weak right now. If you were noticed, you'd be immediately killed. Take advantage of while they still haven't noticed you to grow, or everything will be destroyed." That voice did not answer his question.
== Golden fate lines ==
As the Eastern Wasteland Bell said: Peak heavenly geniuses aren't so easy to kill. Ordinary experts aren't able to affect their golden fate lines, and even if they can take the advantage, they still won't be able to kill them. This is the karmic luck of peak heavenly geniuses.
In this way, Luo Minghao escaped death even though Meng Qi easily defeated him.
== Heavenly Daos ==
However, this bit of karmic luck hadn’t been given to him by the Heavenly Daos, but by the Devil Slaughter Divine Tablet. The Heavenly Daos had no authority to take it back.
To put it frankly, this blessing of karmic luck had been taken from the Heavenly Daos by the Devil Slaughter Divine Tablet and then distributed to Long Chen and the others. It already belonged to them. For Long Chen to help Xia Chen absorb it would only cause the Heavenly Daos to express their fury. They wouldn’t unleash a lightning tribulation to kill him.
