Eternal Tale

Three years later.

The White Spirit beast still guarded the Spiritual Medicine Garden, but it had called upon many Divine Transformation phase wild beasts to serve the Yuehuang Clan demon in a grand formation.

Today, its gaze drifted outward, looking toward the top of the thatched hut, a place considered forbidden.

Three figures sat there, leaving only three seemingly lonely silhouettes...

Above the sky, the clouds drifted leisurely. It wasn’t a blue sky with white clouds, but rather filled with colorful rays, dreamlike and extraordinary, even the mist layered like a heavenly staircase.

The three figures gazed into the endless distance, where countless majestic peaks came into view.

”The world has changed greatly...”

Frog Daoist sighed softly, unwilling to let go of the Clear Dust Grass in his mouth, ”The aura of slaughter in heaven and earth has dissipated so much, the spiritual qi is exceptionally abundant, it’s no longer that era.”

Chen Xun lay casually against the thatched hut, smiling, ”The scenery is indeed beautiful, but it doesn’t belong to us.”

”I saw those graves.”Frog Daoist spoke calmly, exuding an aura of ancientness, ”Young one, it seems your story is quite complex too. Could it be you also crawled out from a divine soul?”

”Haha...” Chen Xun chuckled casually, not responding, still staring into the distance, ”Old Bull and I escaped from a small boundary, blown away by a powerful strike.”

The words were spoken with such ease that even Black Bull couldn’t help but glance over, his pupils slightly contracting, Chen Xun...

”Was it the humans?”

Frog Daoist’s eyes narrowed, uttering a seemingly inexplicable statement, ”I also came from a small boundary, but back then, there was no talk of destroying living boundaries.”

”What do you mean by that?” Chen Xun’s voice deepened.

”During the Era of Great Slaughter among the myriad clans, how did the humans rise? Do you two know?”

”The immortal history only mentions a peerless figure leading the humans to rise, using supreme power to establish the clan’s destiny, without much detail.”

Chen Xun’s gaze slightly narrowed, having read some books, especially on the development history of humans in the grand world, ”That’s all I know, but what does that have to do with small boundaries?”

”Heh.”

Frog Daoist sneered, ”Nonsense immortal history, probably written by later ancient humans. The rise of a major race comes with the fall of myriad clans, would the immortal history dare to record that?!”

Chen Xun and Black Bull couldn’t help but glance over, some things are indeed clearer to those who have personally experienced them.

”The rise of humans relied on small boundaries, where they secretly nurtured countless strong individuals. That’s why even now, most small boundaries you see are inhabited by human beings!”

Frog Daoist’s voice turned cold, his gaze becoming a bit sharper, ”This was the layout of the ancient humans. Back then, the Human Emperor, carrying the ’Great Thousand Creation Art,’ collaborated with evil spirits from beyond the boundary to accelerate the erosion of the grand world’s essence by the small boundary’s essence, aiming to restart the Three Thousand Great Worlds and establish the ranking of the myriad clans as number one!”

”So it seems they failed...”

”The Ancient Saint Clan emerged from the Void Land, collaborating with the ancient immortal clan, a very puzzling matter. I don’t know, but the humans were also betrayed, and the plan completely failed.”

”Why?”

”The ancient immortal clan and the Ancient Saint Clan wanted to elevate the Three Thousand Great Worlds, opening the Boundless True Immortal Realm, ending the cycle of heaven and earth, and various clans joined in, the Human Emperor also agreed.”

Frog Daoist’s voice was exceptionally cold, devoid of any emotion, ”It was thought that the Era of Great Slaughter among the myriad clans, which was expected to last tens of thousands of years, suddenly ended, but someone always has to pay the price, to repay the karmic debts of the myriad clans.”

His face was covered with frost, his lineage became one of them!

”What about the small boundaries?” Chen Xun frowned slightly, these stories were too high-level, beyond their reach, and Frog Daoist’s explanation was extremely vague.

”Haha!”

Frog Daoist suddenly laughed, appearing extremely carefree, ”The ancient humans naturally had to pay the price for devouring the essence of the grand world. Young one, do you know of Filthy Longevity?!”

”..Yes.”

”That is the karmic debt of the ancient humans to the grand world, where there are human beings in small boundaries, there will be Filthy Longevity!”

”That is the resentment of the small boundary’s essence towards the grand world’s essence, a monster created by the ancient humans to accelerate the devouring of the grand world’s essence.”

Frog Daoist sneered, truly the heavens spare no one, ”The humans were once an insignificant race, suddenly rising to the sixth rank among the myriad clans, do you really think it was just due to strength?”

”Their methods were bloody and ruthless, especially that Human Emperor, a heartless and unfeeling existence, willing to commit acts of great betrayal for the rise of the race! He even killed two of his sons!”

”Even when the plan failed, his methods were decisive, killing when necessary, cleansing when needed, in less than a month, billions of beings perished, can you imagine that, young one?”

Frog Daoist still felt a chill in his heart when mentioning this figure, ”But looking at it now, the status of your human race has indeed improved greatly, no longer reduced to the blood food of the myriad clans, recognized wherever they go.”

”What...” Chen Xun was shaken, his voice trembling.

”Moo...” Black Bull snorted several times, his eyes trembling, Filthy Longevity... was actually created by the humans themselves?!

Frog Daoist crossed his arms, head held high, ”Young one, to repay this karmic debt of heaven and earth, the only way is to elevate the Three Thousand Great Worlds. The ancient humans have long been in a dilemma, the only option is to join this astonishing plan, following the footsteps of the ancient immortal clan.”

”You were fortunate to escape from a small boundary, but now the small boundaries must be destroyed, this is the root cause of your race’s rise, blame no one else.”

Frog Daoist gradually twisted his mouth into a smile, feeling secretly pleased, ”But how the Human Emperor arranged the small boundaries in the Three Thousand Great Worlds, who knows... truly daring.”

Objectively speaking, he still admired that Human Emperor, the small boundaries were insignificant regions during the Era of Great Slaughter among the myriad clans, yet they allowed the human race to rise in those places, even the prodigies were not assassinated.

However, White Spirit was saved by a human powerhouse in the small boundary, now it seems there is a trace to follow, the humans’ patience made the myriad clans in the grand world shiver.

”Yes.” Chen Xun responded faintly, ”So that’s how it is, everything in the world is a cycle of cause and effect, I should have realized it long ago.”

”Young one, it seems you have hatred in your heart.”

Frog Daoist squinted his eyes, turning his head at this moment, ”I can feel the hostility in your heart, but have you found your enemy?”

”..The Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance ordered the destruction of my boundary.”

”Never heard of this force, seems to be a product after the Era of Great Slaughter among the myriad clans.”

Frog Daoist curled his lips, shaking his head disdainfully, suddenly speaking coldly, ”But revenge must be sought, I quite agree, dare to kill a being of my lineage, then slaughter their entire clan.”

”Indeed worthy of being a being from the Era of Great Slaughter among the myriad clans, haha, suits my taste, Old Bull and I have met many people, all telling us to temporarily put aside hatred, to discuss right and wrong from the big picture.”

”Quack! This is the vast world of cultivating immortality, we cultivators only follow our hearts, not right or wrong.”

Frog Daoist looked Chen Xun up and down, ”Kill when necessary, annihilate clans when needed, who cares about the floods, if you’re timid, why cultivate immortality, the mindset of cultivators in this era is still lacking, not decisive enough.”

”Haha.” Chen Xun exhaled lightly, sighing softly, ”Indeed.”

”But does the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance have immortals?” Frog Daoist suddenly changed the topic, ”Daring to call themselves an Immortal Alliance, acting as executioners, their subordinate forces must not be simple.”

”Yes.”

”Young one, I ask you for one thing, if you can resurrect that great general, we can surely assist you, gather the forces from all directions, and break open the gates of the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance!”

”You toad, after saying so much, you were waiting for me here.”

Chen Xun’s face stiffened, he really thought this toad supported him, pondering, ”Who?”

”A former subordinate force of the ancient humans, the heavenly general who commanded the invasion of the Thirteen Great Worlds, the Great General of the Desolate Heaven, White Spirit!”
