Eternal Tale

Mo Fuyang suddenly smiled with relief, ”Compared to the thousand-year Immortal Prison of the Dao Ancestor, my thousand years are insignificant. Without the Dao Ancestor, I might have long perished on an unnamed desolate mountain on Trash Island.”

His words were filled with deep emotion, especially after the factory owner left. Trash Island underwent subtle changes, with various forces probing and employing endless tactics.

But all these crises were resolved one by one, especially after Ji Yan brought tens of thousands of terrifying Void Refinement cultivators to Trash Island, calming all unrest.

”Heh.” Chen Xun gave a faint smile and personally poured a cup of tea for Mo Fuyang, who was shocked and exclaimed, ”Dao Ancestor!!”

”No need to worry, it’s well-deserved.”

A gentle breeze blew by, pressing Mo Fuyang into the stone chair. Chen Xun’s expression was exceptionally calm, speaking unhurriedly, ”Now that we have returned, let’s focus on cultivating in peace. Ji Yan is on Trash Island.”

”Yes, Dao Ancestor.”

”Prepare yourself. In five days, I will personally help you open your meridians and maintain your peak state.”

”Yes!”

Mo Fuyang straightened his expression, stood up, and cupped his hands, ”Dao Ancestor, I will go and prepare now.””Go ahead.” Chen Xun looked up with a smile, ”The road is long.”

Mo Fuyang’s figure gradually became ethereal, as if merging into the world and the Five Elements, slowly disappearing with the flow of qi.

In the small pavilion.

Chen Xun’s gaze gradually became vacant and hollow, occasionally sipping tea, enjoying a rare moment of relaxation in body and mind.

He sat there for two hours, then also disappeared from the small pavilion.

Under the waterfall.

Black Bull flipped over, opened his eyes, shivered all over, and hurriedly followed, unable to shake off the habit of never drying the water from his body.

In the center of the great lake on Immaculate Immortal Ridge, a giant sat cross-legged with closed eyes. He was sent to guard Immaculate Immortal Ridge and was none other than Immortal Absolute.

However, his lips moved as he muttered to himself, ”Guarding the gate for a hundred years earns ten top-grade spirit stones, ten thousand top-grade spirit stones... a hundred thousand... a hundred thousand years?!”

Immortal Absolute’s deep voice boomed like thunder, causing waves to ripple across the lake. He suddenly opened his eyes, filled with intense shock, feeling a tingling sensation all over.

This debt, after leaving the Immortal Prison, only had a five-thousand-year limit. Otherwise, he would have to find his elders to forcibly repay it.

He might even have to inform the entire clan. No matter how grand this world became, there would be no place for him, Immortal Absolute, and he would be ridiculed to death.

Immortal Absolute’s aura became increasingly fierce, his face turning somewhat ferocious.

Five thousand years, at most, he could break through to the Unity realm. Only by entering Wild Heaven and risking his life could he possibly repay the debt.

Thinking of this, his aura became much more despondent. As a child, he had imagined falling at the hands of a powerful foe...

But he never imagined that his future would be completely defeated by these spirit stones he looked down upon!

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared on the lake, eyes filled with curiosity, ”Immortal Absolute, what are you doing?”

”Moo?” A Black Bull also swayed over from the lake, revealing only a black head, looking quite dumbfounded.

Immortal Absolute’s expression turned somewhat grim, speaking in a deep voice, ”Senior Crossing the World, if I guard Immaculate Immortal Ridge, it will take at least a hundred thousand years to repay the debt, which is simply impossible. My clan’s Supreme Elder only lives for thirty thousand years.”

He finished speaking, clenching his fists, his entire body exuding killing intent. This debt could only be repaid with his life.

”Your clan doesn’t cultivate the Golden Core, has no Nascent Soul, only the primordial spirit, and focuses solely on the physical body, correct?”

”Yes.”

Immortal Absolute was a bit confused. Why was Senior Crossing the World suddenly talking about this? All the races in this grand world knew this.

”Heh, young man, I see you have exceptional talent and great opportunities, with the potential to enter the Five Elements immortal path.”

Chen Xun’s aura suddenly became unfathomable, as the qi of the Five Elements began to converge towards him, ”Why not follow this Dao Ancestor and cultivate the Five Elements immortal path? That debt of ten thousand spirit stones can be reduced.”

The Nine Heavens Shadow Clan was simply a race born to cultivate the Five Elements immortal path, with a strong physical body, no cultivation of spiritual power, and meridians that could break at any time, making the opening of body apertures exceptionally smooth.

Immortal Absolute was shocked, not understanding the first part of the words, but he understood the latter part—spirit stone debt could be reduced!!

”Senior Crossing the World, what does Immortal Absolute need to do!”

Immortal Absolute suddenly shouted, his heart filled with excitement, ”What is the Five Elements immortal path? Is this the secret to the senior’s immense power?!”

”Immortal Absolute, attack me with both your physical strength and mana.”

Chen Xun’s eyes revealed a profound mystery, as he raised two fingers, and the surrounding qi of the Five Elements began to burst forth with divine light, condensing into substance. At this moment, the majestic aura of heaven and earth suddenly appeared!

The vast spiritual power around and the primordial energy in the great lake were all suppressed, cleared, and dissipated...

Immortal Absolute’s eyes were filled with astonishment. Somehow, under the pressure of the divine light of the Five Elements, his immensely powerful physical body felt a sense of powerlessness. Yet, his eyes were filled with intense battle intent.

”Senior Crossing the World, then I will attack!”

”Come!”

Chen Xun nodded, manipulating the qi of the Five Elements. With a gentle movement of his foot, a massive wave of energy swept out, signaling Immortal Absolute to strike.

The latter let out a shout, his aura suddenly erupting, his figure darting through the divine light of the Five Elements like lightning, rampaging through the air like a giant dragon.

The power of wind and thunder was even more swift than in the Immortal Prison, each strike accompanied by intense energy and light, fiercely smashing into the divine light of the Five Elements, stirring countless spiritual power and primordial energy into storms.

However, Chen Xun merely chuckled, ”The Five Elements transform all things, heed my command!”

With that, he waved his hand, and a piercing cold enveloped the entire lake, freezing Immortal Absolute’s body in place, along with the primordial energy of heaven and earth, locked in the air in an instant.

Immortal Absolute, like an ice sculpture, struggled to break free.

But he found himself frozen, unable to move. Mysterious runes surged on his body, attempting to break the power of the Five Elements ice seal!

However, Chen Xun merely looked more solemn, grasping at the void, and Immortal Absolute’s body began to tremble, as if enveloped by the power of the Five Elements.

The eyes within the ice sculpture were filled with helplessness, his cultivation rapidly fading under the power of the Five Elements, while the mysterious runes were decomposed and dissipated by the power of the Five Elements, gradually disappearing from his body.

”What is this...”

Immortal Absolute was horrified. How could such an ordinary ice-sealing spell possess such power?

And... where was his internal primordial energy?!! He, a dignified Void Refinement cultivator, where was the primordial energy he could wield?!!

Especially the runes on his body, a secret technique of his race, yet easily dissolved. What exactly was this Five Elements immortal path...

His body stiffened, but his eyes became increasingly dull. Naturally, he became stronger after leaving the prison.

But Senior Crossing the World seemed even stronger than in the Immortal Prison, not needing to use physical strength to deal with him.

However, the two were merely sparring, stopping at the right moment, achieving the desired effect without needing to go all out.

Chen Xun pointed at the lake, ice crystals scattered across the surface, shimmering beautifully in the sunlight, everything returning to calm, the lake once again sparkling like a mirror.

”Truly worthy of Senior Crossing the World.” Immortal Absolute was convinced from the bottom of his heart, his deep voice resonating as he cupped his hands.

However, Black Bull glanced disdainfully at Chen Xun, having been frozen earlier, with only its head exposed.

It looked at the somewhat bewildered Immortal Absolute and let out a soft moo.

To deal with someone like the eldest brother, one must have a multitude of tactics, preparing all kinds of formations, spells, killing moves, talismans, magical artifacts, and so on.

Immortal Absolute’s methods were too singular, and he wasn’t wealthy enough to possibly defeat the eldest brother. Only it could use formations to drive the eldest brother to madness.
