Eternal Tale

”Step two, the ancient immortal corpse in the Wild Heaven Region—do you and Ximen Immortal Friend dare to compete for it?”

The Three-Eyed Emperor raised his head slightly, and the imposing third eye finally opened at this moment. ”This is the ancient immortal corpse under the Taiyi Immortal Court, drawn out by the Burial Heaven Mound.”

”No one dares to refine this corpse, and immortals dare not touch the karma of the Immortal Court. The Burial Heaven Mound set up this domain only to draw out the national religion Fu Shi.”

The Three-Eyed Emperor continued to reveal great secrets to Chen Xun, his tone becoming increasingly solemn. ”The son of the Taiyi Immortal Emperor split his Three Souls and Seven Spirits to escape the great calamity of the nation’s destruction.”

”The son of the Immortal Emperor has never appeared in the world, but a remnant soul did, hidden within the secretive national religion Fu Shi. If you wish to seize this body, sever the karma of the Burial Heaven Mound and find that remnant soul.”

The Three-Eyed Emperor’s expression remained unchanged, his aura unknowingly becoming stronger, even exuding a sense of battle intent. ”You may choose not to seek it, but if an immortal intervenes when you seize the ancient immortal corpse...”

”...our Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan will bear this immense karma for you.”

The Three-Eyed Emperor’s voice was calm, his profound gaze piercing through the sky of the Slaying Immortal Ancient Domain. ”This ancient immortal corpse and that supreme-grade spirit stone vein, if refined, can perfect the tribulation crossing laws, reaching the peak period of tribulation crossing.”

”These two items must be contested for. The path to immortality requires vast immortal resources, and without a strong foundation, this is your only option.”

The Three-Eyed Emperor spoke coldly, ”Our clan is in the midst of a full-scale war and cannot offer much, but whatever else we can provide, we will not be stingy. Longevity is a priceless treasure.””You need not be polite with our clan, nor say much. This is to assist you in the second step.”

”Yes!”

”The third step, creating an immortal cultivation method. Without a method, it’s like a rootless duckweed; immortal power will slip away like sand through your fingers. Even if you possess the body of the Dao Ancestor of the Five Elements, your realm will decline over time.”

The Three-Eyed Emperor gave Chen Xun a deep look. ”Our clan will provide you with an immortal cultivation method, but it will only be the path of Spiritual Qi Immortal Path. What kind of Five Elements Immortal Method you can comprehend depends solely on yourselves.”

”This is to assist you in the third step to immortality. If you succeed in these three steps, the gate to immortality will open.”

The Three-Eyed Emperor’s final words instantly triggered anomalies in the ancient domain’s heavens and earth, filled with unmatched majesty and dominance.

These three steps to immortality continuously impacted Chen Xun’s heart, making him feel a surge of excitement.

Chen Xun’s gaze was deep as an abyss. The Five Elements Immortal Body had been formed, the Dao essence established, and the immortal essence could be used with the Destruction Stone. A mere immortal thunder was nothing; it wasn’t as if he hadn’t been annihilated before...

As for comprehending the immortal cultivation method, as long as there was a reference, he was an expert, having crawled and fought his way here.

His thoughts became increasingly clear, and a complete plan for immortality began to take shape. Attaining the Dao in the Wild Heaven Region was not his desire.

He had long set his sights on the Wild Star Sea, where the boundaries were even broader than the Wild Heaven Region. The latter’s expansion originated from there!

Chen Xun took a deep breath, bowed slowly, and said, ”Thank you, Emperor!”

”From today, you and Ximen Immortal Friend shall enter the depths of the ancient domain and seclude yourselves at Destruction Ridge. The Destruction Stones there are incomparable to ordinary boundary Destruction Stones, so be cautious.”

The Three-Eyed Emperor spoke indifferently, ”To what extent you can refine them depends on your own realm.”

”Emperor... can Bull and I refine them at will?” Chen Xun was still somewhat uncertain and asked with a slight frown, ”If we refine too much...”

”No matter, Di Si has already explained the formation of these stones to you.”

The Three-Eyed Emperor waved his sleeve, unconcerned, and said in a loud voice, ”You may go. This is no longer the era of great slaughter among the myriad clans, where all immortal resources are scarce.”

”Yes, Emperor, then Bull and I will not be polite.”

Chen Xun’s eyes focused, and he spoke seriously, word by word, ”Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan, in the future...”

”Enough.”

The Three-Eyed Emperor interrupted Chen Xun instantly, his expression exceptionally dignified. Immortals live for a hundred thousand years, and there’s no need to speak of the future, nor did he believe in the vague karma he saw.

”If you can open the gate to immortality, one day my true form will descend and personally congratulate you.”

The Three-Eyed Emperor ascended into the sky, leaving a faint message in the heavens and earth, ”The path to immortality is fraught with tribulations at every step. As the ancestor of a lineage of immortal paths, I look forward to that day.”

By the lakeside.

The Three-Eyed Emperor had long departed, yet Chen Xun still bowed his head in farewell, a trace of awe in his eyes. This was an immortal...

”...Impressive.”

Chen Xun slowly took a deep breath, pondered for a long time, and felt a surge of respect in his heart. Whether it was helping him see the grand trends or discussing the path to immortality, it had benefited him greatly.

”The world is vast, and I am but a frog at the bottom of a well,” Chen Xun sighed self-deprecatingly, smiling.

It seemed he hadn’t been wrong when facing Taixiao back then; the foundation of the immortal path truly couldn’t be caught up with in just a few tens of thousands of years. However, now that the Five Aggregates Sect endured, life was finally improving.

A gentle look appeared in Chen Xun’s eyes. He and Bull were no longer rootless wanderers in the world of immortals, no longer drifting aimlessly.

”Hahaha...”

As Chen Xun thought about it, he laughed heartily, walking away with his hands behind his back, still muttering, ”You little ones, do you know what a star pivot is? What a spirit stone is? Hmm, you surely can’t recognize grand world spiritual herbs either...”

His white robe grew increasingly ethereal, his figure blurred, and his calm yet smiling voice faded into the heavens and earth.

Inside the temple.

”Moo moo~~”

Black Bull was munching on the feast, chatting happily with many Three-Eyed strongmen. At one point, he almost pulled out a box of Taiwei Purple Immortal Fruits!

He missed those old friends so much, as if he saw them reborn.

His primordial spirit had been protecting him all the way, continuously transmitting divine thoughts to all the disciples of the Five Aggregates Sect, understanding this grand world.

Especially Ji Zhao, Black Bull’s primordial spirit had rubbed against him countless times, his brows and eyes smiling. With Senior Brother Ji’s fortune and his own merit protecting him, he knew that kid wouldn’t die!

But most grateful was the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan. Without them, the hope for him and his eldest brother would have been utterly extinguished, and everything from the past would be gone.

”Bull! Damn it, still eating?!”

A loud and boisterous shout came from outside the temple, quite fierce, scaring Black Bull so much that his face plunged into the plate, responding angrily, ”Moo moo??!”

What the hell!

Di Si’s eyes had long been insightful. He stood up and smiled, ”Then I won’t disturb the two Daoists. The Emperor has ordered that Destruction Ridge is open to you two.”

”As it should be!”

”The Emperor has thought it through. I shall guard it for him.”

”Still, the Slaying Immortal Ancient Domain is Chen Xun Daoist’s and Ximen Daoist’s second domain, no need to be polite.”

...

Everyone stood up, speaking solemnly, but instead breathed a sigh of relief, their brows becoming much more relaxed. Without the Emperor’s order, they couldn’t even cultivate in peace.

This favor must be repaid! Saving a group of Golden Core and Nascent Soul humans couldn’t possibly warrant such immense wealth.

If the Emperor didn’t speak up to repay, some Three-Eyed strongmen were ready to recognize him as a godfather! Willing to be at his service!

At the banquet.

Black Bull’s eyes widened, and he instantly got up to run outside. Carelessly, the storage ring of the little bull slipped, and with a bang, a box of good fruits fell out...

The temple’s atmosphere instantly quieted down, becoming somewhat subtle.

Di Si’s fingers trembled slightly, his gaze lost. Are these two Daoists testing us like this?!

Which strongman’s Dao heart here can withstand such a test!

All the Three-Eyed strongmen in the temple exchanged glances, even making throat-rolling sounds. This generation of the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan was truly about to rise from the emergence of the Di Tian ancestor...

Di Si took a deep, heavy breath. ”This item, the Emperor has ordered, is to be handled by the Di Tian ancestor. Our clan begins the era of strong generations from this one, hide it!”

”...Understood!”

The gazes of all the Three-Eyed strongmen gradually became incredibly sharp, nodding heavily. If this generation grows, the Three-Eyed Ancient Immortal Clan will astonish the entire Three Thousand Great Worlds!

Di Si’s breathing grew heavier, and in a flash, he suddenly felt that starting a war might have been too hasty.

But then his heart trembled, thinking that if they hadn’t started a war, how would the disciples of the Five Aggregates Sect have been drawn out, and how would they have obtained such a terrifying quantity of Taiwei Purple Immortal Fruits.

”The Era of Great Slaughter among the Myriad Clans, the promise made by the Human Emperor... our clan sealed living beings into the boundary, this era they emerge to meet the Dao Ancestor of the Five Elements, and so on... everything...”

Di Si thought to himself, his third eye flashing with golden light, ”It’s like a perfect karmic loop spanning endless years. Can our clan truly ascend to become a great clan of the heavens and earth...”

His heart was in turmoil, his gaze piercing beyond the temple, taking a deep look at the two mysterious silhouettes walking on the earth, whispering to each other.

The rolling torrent of the great trends of heaven and earth had finally arrived...
