Eternal Tale

”Fellow Daoist of the Five Elements, you are mistaken. Young Nangong dared to venture into the Milky Way with just the Great Ascension stage. His courage is unparalleled; who can compare to him?”

Immortal Burial’s gaze darkened as he turned to the two juniors, gently reprimanding, ”Do you see the gap now? To compete in the grand world, it’s not just about having a talent for the immortal path.”

”Yes, Ancestor.” Burial Gu and Burial Yi’s expressions twitched, and they couldn’t help but feel a bit of admiration.

Both of them looked at Nangong Heling and said solemnly, ”Greetings, Fellow Daoist Nangong.”

Nangong Heling smiled, cupping her hands towards them, then looked down at Immortal Burial and said, ”You flatter me, Immortal. It’s all thanks to my eldest brother’s guidance; I merely benefited from his blessings.”

She naturally understood her eldest brother’s intentions, knowing him all too well, able to grasp his thoughts clearly.

”Ah, Third Sister.” Chen Xun beamed, waving his hand repeatedly, feeling a deep sense of satisfaction... Finally, the day had come.

Immortal Burial interjected with a robust voice, ”Fellow Daoist of the Five Elements, it seems these juniors need more interaction.”

”Of course.”

Chen Xun was in a great mood, looking at Heling, he said, ”Third Sister, everyone here is a prodigy from various clans. Staying here is too restrictive; go and mingle.””Alright, Eldest Brother.” Heling gave Chen Xun a playful glance, knowing her brother was boosting her reputation... Naturally, she wouldn’t dampen his spirits.

”You should go too.” Immortal Burial’s gaze softened, ”The future belongs to your generation.”

”Yes, Ancestor.” Burial Gu and Burial Yi cupped their hands.

The three walked side by side, quickly leaving the place. Heling also became more at ease, as everyone here was of significant status, making their interactions quite equal.

After they had completely left.

Immortal Burial’s gaze turned serious, even changing his address, ”Thank you, Dao Ancestor, for escorting the prince.”

Chen Xun immediately restrained his smile, his gaze becoming more solemn, ”The Immortal King Burial has shown me kindness, and Young Master Gu has also been kind to me. Your words are too heavy, Fellow Daoist.”

”After the ritual, there will surely be a backlash from the essence. Does the Dao Ancestor have any plans for future generations?”

Immortal Burial shifted the topic, an inexplicable aura enveloping the surroundings, ”A hundred thousand years may seem long, but the chaos in the boundary will persist, and the Boundless Myriad Clans will not allow the essence of the grand world to be lost.”

”This is a wise strategy to buy time. The Dao Ancestor should plan for future generations. If needed, the Burial Heaven Mound will fully support you.”

A cold glint flashed in Immortal Burial’s eyes. The Dao Ancestor of the Five Elements had received the legacy of the Immortal King Burial, making him one of their own.

They would spare no effort, and with the prince’s identity, the relationship was indeed deep.

Chen Xun pondered for a moment, ”I understand your meaning, Fellow Daoist, but I need time. I will remember the goodwill of the Burial Heaven Mound.”

”The Dao Ancestor is always welcome at my Burial Heaven Mound domain, as are the disciples of the Five Aggregates Sect.”

”The juniors of the Burial Heaven Mound are also my juniors. The mountain gate of the Five Aggregates Sect is always open to you.”

The two nodded at each other, establishing the relationship between the two great forces with just a few words.

”Fellow Daoist Burial, I’ll go entertain the other immortals first. After the banquet, let’s gather at Yuqing Palace.”

”Please, Dao Ancestor.” Immortal Burial nodded sideways.

Chen Xun smiled, holding a teacup as he walked to another area. These people were comrades who had risked their lives together, and he had to treat them with utmost sincerity.

Everyone had old friends and juniors behind them. To follow him into the Milky Way without regard for consequences had already proven everything through actions, no need for more words.

Immortal Burial, clad in black, looked around, his gaze gradually becoming profound.

He murmured, ”All are ten-thousand-year Yin-Yang bamboos, and there’s even a Taiwei Purple Immortal Fruit that extends life by three thousand years. Such profound heritage...”

In the distance.

The Yu family ancestor was in high spirits, conversing with the grand ancestor of Heavenly Melody, even introducing Meng Sheng beside him. Even though Meng Sheng was his own family member, he praised him highly, amusingly so.

”Two Fellow Daoists.”

Chen Xun called out, walking over with a leisurely smile, ”I wonder how to address you. The battle of the Milky Way was a bit rushed, and I haven’t had the chance to discuss with you all.”

A trace of excitement flashed in Meng Sheng’s eyes. The senior had finally come over. He had been wandering alone in the Wild Heaven Region for so long, and this was the first time he hoped for a senior’s support.

”Dao Ancestor.”

”Dao Ancestor.”

The Yu family ancestor and the grand ancestor of Heavenly Melody both straightened their expressions, not daring to be negligent.

”Seventh Ancestor of the Yu family, Yu Chenyou, greets the Fellow Daoist of the Five Elements.”

”Grand Ancestor of the Heavenly Melody Immortal Kingdom, Tu Yongchang, greets the Fellow Daoist of the Five Elements.”

Yu Chenyou was an elder in a dark robe, his posture upright and imposing like a mountain. His face was deeply profound, his gaze sharp, exuding an aura of an old and powerful figure.

Once you saw him, it was hard to forget his appearance. His aura was so mysterious that even the surrounding Yin-Yang bamboo seemed to twist, clearly a practitioner of space laws.

Tu Yongchang wore a brocade robe, covered with a layer of light gauze, which fluttered gracefully, yet his demeanor and appearance were completely incongruent.

His face was as firm as iron, his gaze as sharp as an eagle’s, his entire being like a sharp sword, exuding a fierce aura.

Though not tall, his every move radiated an unparalleled kingly aura.

Standing there, he resembled a dormant immortal tiger, ready to pounce on any formidable enemy daring to challenge him, with an extraordinary presence, clearly someone who had long held a high position.

Even though he was no longer an Immortal Emperor, the past glory and majesty were deeply imprinted on him, making him stand out wherever he was.

The appearance and aura of the two left a deep impression on Chen Xun, like two boulders standing firm in the storm, unshakable by any tempest.

”First Ancestor of the Five Aggregates Sect, Chen Xun.”

Chen Xun maintained a calm demeanor, his aura not yielding in the slightest, contrasting with Tu Yongchang’s domineering and flamboyant presence.

The falling leaves rustled, seemingly influenced by the aura of the three immortals.

Meng Sheng took a deep breath, his expression calm. Having experienced the bloody battle of the Milky Way, he had seen grand scenes and wouldn’t lose composure in front of the three immortals.

Yu Chenyou waved his sleeve, cupping his hands, his gaze becoming extremely solemn, ”I once observed the Dao Ancestor’s bloody battle from afar, in the Three Thousand Great Worlds... no immortal could surpass him. To fight alongside the Dao Ancestor is a great fortune for my Yu family, with no regrets.”

His stance was exceptionally respectful towards Chen Xun, his words powerful and without a trace of flattery. Anyone who had witnessed that battle would hold the Dao Ancestor of the Five Elements in high esteem.

Tu Yongchang nodded towards Chen Xun, his fierce aura considerably restrained.

He hadn’t gone to the Human Clan’s Milky Way, being on the battlefield beyond the boundary, but he had witnessed the earth-shattering battle that echoed through the heavens, leaving him eager to make Chen Xun’s acquaintance.

Thus, leveraging a connection with the Ling family of the Immortal Kingdom, he shamelessly came...
