Eternal Tale

Inside the Tower of Heaven.

Chen Xun’s black hair had gradually transformed into silver, his eyes cold and emotionless, as deep as an abyss.

Around him, natural disasters surged, a scene of a world collapsing, yet it couldn’t stir any emotion in his eyes.

He seemed detached from the world, overlooking the changes on the first level of the Tower of Heaven, neither interfering nor feeling any sentiment, only an endless calm.

In Chen Xun’s eyes, he seemed to see the chaotic chains of the Great Dao, imprisoning this world of disasters, as well as his own Void Refinement realm.

”Divine sense, primordial spirit, physical body, acupoints... all are bound by the chains of the Great Dao. To enter Unity, each must be severed.”

Chen Xun took out a small booklet and slowly wrote on it with the power of the Five Elements, ”The gifts of heaven and earth, the chaotic Great Dao merges into the cultivator’s body, allowing them to comprehend the origin of their own immortal path. The stronger they are, the more they comprehend, advancing further to perfect their own Great Dao.”

”The weaker ones have limited comprehension, their path to the heavens ends, needing only to sever one chain of the Great Dao they have understood to enter the Unity realm.”

”What is heaven and earth... what is the immortal path...”

Chen Xun’s Five Elements Immortal Eyes flowed like stars, seeing through all illusions, ”The chains of the Great Dao are countless, corresponding to everything about oneself, and also to the path of the Tower of Heaven. There might be ten thousand levels here.””This is the limit of heaven and earth, the limit of the immortal path. If one can break all the chains of the Great Dao of their own immortal path, unleashing the power of ten thousand Daos, resonating with heaven and earth, who can rival them in the Unity realm.”

”The Body of Rules can withstand the attacks of the Great Ascension Venerable’s heavenly rules, preventing them from directly targeting the source within.”

”If one can cultivate a true Five Elements Immortal Body, transforming into the Five Elements of all things, being everywhere and nowhere, avoiding the cause and effect of heaven and earth, transcending it.”

Chen Xun frowned, a meaningful smile appearing at the corner of his mouth, ”As expected of the celestial realm, possessing the true origin of the immortal path, it seems cultivating to the Great Ascension here is not impossible.”

But reaching the top of the Tower of Heaven’s ten thousand levels and breaking all the chains of the Great Dao of oneself is fundamentally impossible. The Void Refinement realm has its limits, the immortal path is endless, and the upper limit can only be gradually raised by future generations.

The current limit of the grand world Xuanwei Heaven is only over three thousand levels, the true golden age of cultivating immortality has yet to arrive.

Their generation can only be considered on the way, as they closely follow the previous era, the Era of great slaughter among the myriad clans, which suffered too many losses.

Only by waiting for the true golden age to arrive might there be a true conqueror of the celestial realm.

Countless powerful cultivators are contributing to and preparing for this day in the grand world, opportunities are not awaited but created by countless elder cultivators.

Of course, Chen Xun and the others naturally don’t know this, and even if they did, it wouldn’t concern them... they’ll talk about it when they live to that time.

Now entering the first level of the Tower of Heaven, they can break one chain of their own Great Dao roughly every five times, needing about fifty thousand entries.

Of course, it might become increasingly difficult to break the chains of the Great Dao later on.

But they never lack patience and time, this great opportunity from heaven and earth comes only once in a lifetime.

”Bull, what are you doing?” Chen Xun’s brow twitched, as Black Bull sat cross-legged atop a volcano, surrounded by sounds of destruction, yet it had already summoned the Five Elements Array Flag...

This Black Bull was forcibly integrating the gifts of heaven and earth into its life-bound magical artifact, elevating it.

It clearly felt that the World Soul could only increase its lifespan and upper limit.

Like enlarging a water tank filled with water, but the water inside didn’t increase, and it needed to use the gifts of heaven and earth to fill the enlarged tank.

If the outside cultivators knew, they would chase Black Bull to the ends of the earth, using the gifts of heaven and earth not to elevate one’s own Great Dao, but to enhance a life-bound magical artifact?!

How abundant are your gifts of heaven and earth, did you climb above three thousand levels?! This bull is truly not behaving like a human!

”Moo moo~” Black Bull responded with a silly smile, it was just messing around, having comprehended too much of the heavenly array path.

Its previous methods were really not feasible, with too many ways to break them.

The former array Great Dao relied on these cultivating resources, needing array eyes or bases, whether it was a killing array or illusion array, all had the risk of being broken by identifying the array eye.

It could even be forcibly broken with mana, but now it had comprehended too much.

By using everything in heaven and earth as the array diagram, using the power of the Great Dao of heaven and earth as the guide, condensing the rules of heaven and earth, forming a grand and complex heavenly array diagram.

Such a situation is like reconstructing an array world, like their current world of disasters.

The pinnacle of the array path should be able to change the fortune and structure of heaven and earth, rather than being limited within it.

And the Five Elements Array Flag is the key to this array world, crucial to the operation of the array, it wants to seal the Great Dao of the gifts of heaven and earth within, severing the chains of the Great Dao of the primordial spirit!

Black Bull wants to create an array of the Great Dao, not an array of the immortal path.

It will use the Great Dao of heaven and earth as the foundation, integrating the rules of heaven and earth and the power of the Five Elements immortal path, forming an array system that transcends its own heaven and earth.

Chen Xun didn’t understand, but he was greatly shocked.

He hadn’t comprehended any heavenly array Great Dao, walking a completely different path from Black Bull, but the immortal path leads to the same destination, the improvement of realm is fundamental...

”Bull, keep plucking, this lifetime only comes once, after breaking through there will be no chance!”

”Moo!”

Chen Xun and Black Bull were quite excited, rising into the air, entering and exiting the fifth level of the Tower of Heaven, they could say they had played it to the fullest, no cultivator understood the bottom levels of the Tower of Heaven better than them...

A month later.

Suddenly, a loud shout erupted from the first level of the Tower of Heaven:

”Damn, it’s collapsing! Bull, run, to the second level!”

Chen Xun was filled with horror, the world around them was collapsing and being destroyed, heavenly fires flying everywhere, the earth sinking, full of magma, even the chaotic Great Dao of heaven and earth was collapsing.

”Moo~~~!” Black Bull was also shocked, no wonder the scene on the first level never changed when they entered, it turns out it could be plucked to collapse!

The man and the bull instinctively took out their Image Stones to record this apocalyptic scene, deeply engraving it in their hearts, the feeling of the world collapsing was too unsettling, unrelated to whether you could resist or escape.

In a world of ice and snow.

Chen Xun and Black Bull sat on the ground gasping for breath, not recovering for a long time, the staircase was broken, they might not have the first level to enter in the future.

Suddenly, a dull rumble came from the ground.

The glaciers began to crack, the snow crystals in the sky became quite urgent, even carrying a chilling murderous intent.

But Chen Xun and Black Bull were already accustomed to such situations, the second level of the Tower of Heaven was just like this, as long as it didn’t exceed three days, the chaotic Great Dao would start to press down suddenly, shaking the soul.

However, the outside of the Tower of Heaven remained calm, except... Chen Xun and Ximen Black Bull’s first level had collapsed.

The celestial realm is vast and boundless, the collapse of a disaster world couldn’t affect anything.

The cultivators continued their discussions, and many bloodied and terrified cultivators rolled out from the Tower of Heaven, as if narrowly escaping death.

The world inside was too chaotic, you couldn’t imagine what you would face next.

Especially after the hundredth level, the Purple Mansion Green Spirit Liquid and Returning to Origin Purple God Essence could be obtained from the celestial realm, making the competition more intense and the danger increasing.

Strange occurrences happened frequently inside, sudden deaths while walking were not uncommon, great opportunities always came with great risks, and it was like this when heaven and earth first opened.

No one could survive in such a harsh and strange environment, perhaps the next moment would be an endless abyss, luck seemed particularly important at this time.

Of course.

The two still plucking the wool of heaven and earth on the second level of the Tower of Heaven didn’t count, they didn’t want to take any risks, plucking until collapse.

Finally, two months later, as expected, their second level of the Tower of Heaven collapsed again!
