Infinite Save: I Cultivate Immortality Through Reincarnation

To this day, there are two faces in this world that Chen Yan absolutely does not want to see.

One is that former Supreme Imperial Law Elder of the Kongshan Sect, Huo Mu, who had tortured and killed him countless times in the past.

The other is this Chief Disciple of the Weaving Dreams Tower of the Mirage Palace… no, now the Daomen Xingzou of the Mirage Palace, Xiao Bo’an.

After the Heavenly Summit Mountain Cataclysm seven years ago, the Mirage Palace did not announce their casualties and losses.

However, the Chief Disciple of the Mirage Palace’s Weaving Dreams Tower had indeed never made a public appearance for a full four years after the Heavenly Summit Mountain Cataclysm.

It wasn’t until three years ago, when the Mirage Palace suddenly announced that Xiao Bo’an had broken through to the Qi Sea Realm and would serve as the next Daomen Xingzou of the Mirage Palace, that Xiao Bo’an truly returned to the view of the Chenping Continent’s cultivation world.

Si Youyou, in front of her, used childish, crooked handwriting to scrawl her own name onto the roster.

“Good, thank you for your trouble.”

Subsequently, those two outer sect disciples from Wind Ravine Valley turned and left.

After confirming that the cultivation realm of the little girl before them was truly above the Martial Spring Realm, their attitude towards Chen Yan and the others became several degrees more respectful compared to before.

“Sir.”

Chen Yan spoke to Mr. You beside him:

“I have some questions I’d like to ask for guidance.”

“What?”

“Everyone says that the illusion arts secretly passed down by the Mirage Palace’s Weaving Dreams Tower are the undisputed number one illusion arts in this world, even when Heavenly Summit Mountain was at its peak sixty thousand years ago, it was the same.”

Chen Yan continued asking:

“So, where exactly does the profound mystery of the Weaving Dreams Tower’s illusion arts lie?”

Upon hearing this, Mr. You first fell silent for a moment, then slowly began to speak:

“It lies in the Mirage Palace’s heritage.”

Heritage?

“The Mirage Palace is currently the cultivation sect with the deepest heritage among the Five Great Sects of the Chenping Continent. The history of this ancient sect can even be traced back to before Heavenly Summit Mountain ruled the Chenping Continent. At that time, the Mirage Palace was already one of the world’s top cultivation sects.”

Mr. You said:

“One could also say that the Mirage Palace is the sole remaining fruit of that era.”

These were all things Chen Yan was unaware of. The history of the Chenping Continent was simply too long. In the written records of the Kongshan Sect’s Scripture Repository, the most ancient history one could see was already the peak period of Heavenly Summit Mountain.

And history that is too ancient, for today’s cultivators, aside from satisfying curiosity, holds no practical significance.

Because ever since Su Hongzhen fell, one could say this world had already lifted the curtain on a new era, a new order.

“The Weaving Dreams Tower, as one of the most ancient branches of the Mirage Palace, its secret illusion arts had already taken initial form a million years ago. Later generations continuously perfected and passed them down to the present day… One could say that every few tens of thousands of years, or even just a few thousand years, the illusion arts of the Weaving Dreams Tower undergo a major transformation. Even if you brought the Mirror Moon Realman, who led the Mirage Palace’s Weaving Dreams Tower seventy thousand years ago, here in person, he wouldn’t be able to explain clearly what the current Weaving Dreams Tower illusion arts even are.”

Mr. You explained it this way.

An ancient art passed down for a million years, yet the current Weaving Dreams Tower illusion arts, compared to their initial form a million years ago, could already be said to be a completely different art.

And Mr. You’s words also stirred Chen Yan’s curiosity about another matter.

“How did Heavenly Summit Mountain rule the Chenping Continent?”

Chen Yan asked.

“Simple.”

Mr. You said plainly:

“Because before Heavenly Summit Mountain appeared, no one in the Chenping Continent had Ascended to Immortality. Just like the current situation, Dao Union was the peak.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan’s breathing slightly halted, and then he only felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end.

“Eras that are too ancient have long been forgotten by people. If the people of today still knew exactly where the starting point of Ascending to Immortality lies, I’m afraid Heavenly Summit Mountain would have been turned upside down long ago.”

Mr. You lamented like this.

“So, you’re saying it was because of the existence of Heavenly Summit Mountain that the Immortal Ascension Realm came into being in this world?”

Chen Yan continued asking.

“No.”

Mr. You just shook his head:

“The appearance of Heavenly Summit Mountain was also just one link in the chain of cause and effect. Even if there were no Heavenly Summit Mountain, something else would surely have taken its place.”

It wasn’t that the Immortal Ascension Realm came into being in this world because Heavenly Summit Mountain existed.

Rather, this world needed the Immortal Ascension Realm, so Heavenly Summit Mountain was born in response to that need.

Reversing cause and effect.

In the logic class Chen Yan took as an elective during his previous life’s university studies, so-called “reversing cause and effect” was a very shallow logical fallacy.

But in this world, there are many things that precisely have the “effect” first in the future, and only then does the “cause” appear in the past.

The time dimension does not extend forward unchangeably. This was a principle Chen Yan should have understood during his first Cycle of Reincarnation.

At this very moment, the Floating Light Summit was already gathered with over ten thousand cultivators from various cultivation sects across the Northern Region of the Chenping Continent. The Floating Light Summit was different from Heavenly Summit Mountain. Heavenly Summit Mountain had the ruins of what was once the Chenping Continent’s number one sacred cultivation ground.

Before Wind Ravine Valley decided to host this Floating Light Summit Dao Inquiry Assembly, the Floating Light Summit was completely a barren mountain.

However, the current Floating Light Summit, although it had a newly built, massive-scale Training Grounds and viewing stand, still looked relatively desolate compared to those first-rate cultivation sects.

Wind Ravine Valley began planning for this Floating Light Summit Dao Inquiry a year ago. According to rumors, Wind Ravine Valley spent millions of taels of gold and tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones, hiring hundreds of thousands of mortal craftsmen, to build the Floating Light Summit to this scale.

Although the so-called gold and tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones were merely a drop in the bucket for an entity of Wind Ravine Valley’s size, they obviously didn’t plan to throw this money away either.

A few days ago, Chen Yan heard someone at the Beiguang River Ferry say that Wind Ravine Valley planned to invest another few hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones in the next couple of years to build the Floating Light Summit into a Dao Inquiry sacred ground for the Northern Region of the Chenping Continent.

And this time, inviting the Daomen Xingzou from the other four great sects to observe the ceremony, of course, also contained the meaning of finding people to bolster their prestige.

A young man wearing the deep cyan daoist robes of the Mirage Palace, with red lips, white teeth, sword-like eyebrows, and starry eyes, walked smiling towards the viewing stand. This former Chief Disciple of the Weaving Dreams Tower was now the Daomen Xingzou of the Mirage Palace.

Chang Yongfeng, the Dignity Elder of Qingjin Ravine responsible for presiding over the overall situation for Wind Ravine Valley this time, sat in the main seat on the viewing stand.

“Disciple of the Mirage Palace, Xiao Bo’an, pays his respects to Elder Chang!”

Xiao Bo’an bowed in salute towards Chang Yongfeng’s direction.

“Daoxing Xiao!”

Chang Yongfeng laughed as he stood up from the main seat, returning the salute towards Xiao Bo’an’s direction.

For Chang Yongfeng, who was now over two hundred years old, Xiao Bo’an was undoubtedly a junior in front of him. According to etiquette, if it were just a junior, he would not need to stand up to return the salute.

But the other party’s current identity was the Daomen Xingzou of the Mirage Palace. When outside, he could be regarded as the spokesperson for the Mirage Palace, his generational status equivalent to that of a Peak Elder.

Therefore, Chang Yongfeng, as the Dignity Elder of Qingjin Ravine, needed to use the etiquette reserved for peers to treat these Daomen Xingzou.
