On the endless river of time.
Vaguely, there are layers of mist emerging one after another, just like nine different levels of heaven and earth, exuding a sense of ethereal and supreme, hazy and difficult to see clearly.
A faint shadow swept across the long river of time, continuously going upstream, seeming to run through the entire ancient history and trace back to the oldest years.
Rumble…
The long river of time has its ups and downs, its waves are turbulent, its water is turbulent, and it is constantly turbulent.
One after another, extremely terrifying figures appeared one after another upstream and downstream, looking at the long river of time where the sudden change occurred, with different expressions.
They were all the protagonists of the world in an era, beings whose cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the evolution of living beings in countless eras, and whose methods were all-powerful. However, at this time, they could only watch the shocking changes happen, and it was difficult to interfere.
However, there are two figures among them that are the scariest and the most special.
One is a huge corpse covered in pitch black. Its body seems to have rotted long ago, and is wrapped in the rich source of darkness, blooming with the power of endless darkness;
The other figure has a resolute face and handsome features, but he also carries a sense of vicissitudes that have gone through endless years. He is filled with anger, looking down on the past, present and future, exuding an invincible belief that no one can compete with him.
They stand at the uppermost reaches of the long river of time, but they seem to exist everywhere in time and space at the same time, suppressing everything, as if they are about to collapse the eternal heavens, and the long river of time is unstable because of their existence.
These two figures are the existences that have truly stood at the end of all the heavens and worlds here since ancient times. For countless epochs, these are the only two figures that have appeared.
At this moment, they seemed to be aware of part of the truth, and saw the ancient snake entrenched in the long river of time, swallowing up the past and the future.
The huge corpse immediately wanted to take action, but was blocked by another figure.
That faint shadow has touched the oldest years and will rewrite history. The heavens roar, the world trembles, and the endless power of cause and effect is entangled.
Because this will lead to unpredictable and terrible consequences, the entire ancient history will change, and the future will also change its course.
It can be said that if this was completely overthrown and started over again, everything would change!
This is truly going against heaven!
But even this huge cause and effect, the backlash of the heavens, and the punishment of all realms still cannot stop the faint shadow.
In the end, layer after layer of mist stabilized everything, and the ancient snake went back to before the creation of the world. The "prototype of Tao Fruit" was imprinted into the root of time and began to breed again.
At this moment, Zhang Jingming became the "oldest person" on the other side.
The origin of time is ripe, and a projection of his self was born before the most ancient era when the world was in chaos. The endless causes and effects of the heavens and the world are all wrapped around his body.
"My name is Yuanshi."
The four words fell like a declaration of the great road, and a Taoist priest with an ancient face and majestic figure appeared.
He sits cross-legged at the source of time and space, overlooking eternity, watching the changes of eras, the changes of time, the evolution of the heavens, and the birth and death of all worlds.
He carries the huge cause and effect of all existences in the heavens and worlds here. He is the beginning of everything, the cause of all effects, and the source of the creation of the heavens. He symbolizes "nothing", "opening up" and "cause and effect".
……
Time flies by, and time seems to have lost its specific concept. In the blink of an eye, no one knows how many thousands of years have passed.
A tall figure with long, disheveled hair appeared. This person was extremely dazzling, as if he were cast from gold. Even his originally thick black hair shone with blazing brilliance.
He was holding a blood-stained fairy sword, and his body bore traces of the tragic battle. He had a solemn look on his face, and his eyes were extremely deep, not only showing the color of vicissitudes of life, but also the endless loneliness.
The river was rolling and roaring. Beside him, not only mountains of corpses and seas of blood emerged, but also the tragic ancient history and endless darkness separated by a sword.
In a trance, it seems that one can see a young man walking out of the wilderness, growing from weak to strong, from youthful to mature, fighting countless talented people in the most glorious world, facing off against one terrifying character after another, and fighting in a battle. Rise up step by step in the battle.
In this way, he slowly walked out of the long river of time and came to Yuanshi Taoist.
Their eyes met, and countless messages were exchanged in an instant.
That figure disappeared like a dream bubble, leaving no traces, as if it had never existed.
……
The wheels of time roll forward. In the eyes of all living beings, time is like a long river running between heaven and earth. It is invisible and has no beginning and no end. The past cannot be changed and the future is difficult to predict.
Fairyland.
Since the kings from foreign lands came together to surround and kill Shi Hao but failed to catch them all, time has flown by and thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Shi Hao came out of seclusion. Not only did his injuries recover, but also through continuous deductions year after year, the method he practiced was further perfected, and he saw a way to a higher place.
Shi Hao had long since opened up the six secret realms of the human body and truly found his own path in cultivation. His Taoism had already reached the highest peak of the Immortal King, and he had touched the threshold of becoming an emperor.
Now, he firmly believes that he can pass through that hurdle, advance all the way, and embark on his own imperial path.
However, after reminiscing with the relatives and friends who came after hearing the news, Shi Hao did not immediately prepare for a breakthrough. Instead, he quietly left the Immortal Realm and returned to the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands of the lower realm.
Because before that, it is time to reveal the answers to some questions.
……
The lower realm, the nine heavens and ten lands, is where the heaven is.
Deep in the Heavenly Palace, beside the Immortal Pond and under the pavilion, two men sat opposite each other across the Eight Immortals Table.
The surroundings are surrounded by incense, auspicious colors, and fairy music. The beautiful scenery remains the same, and it seems that it has not changed at all in countless years.
As soon as Shi Haofang sat down, he saw in front of his eyes the overlapping scenes he saw in this world along the way and in his memory. He looked at the familiar face of the person opposite, his eyes were deep and his thoughts were difficult to understand.
He sighed softly: "Everything in the world and the world here is the same as before, but I don't know if the old friends are the same as before."
Zhang Bairen smiled lightly and said: "Things are the same and people are the same, nature remains the same as before."
He still looked like a handsome young man, with a faint smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were very calm, and his eyes were like two cold pools, seemingly without any waves.
Things are people?
Shi Hao thought about the unknown changes he had sensed upstream and downstream of the river of time, as well as some discordance in his memory, and his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes became darker.
"please."
Zhang Bairen tapped the table with his finger, and two cups of fairy tea appeared, with the glow of sunlight and the fragrance filling the air.
Shi Hao's eyes fell on the fairy tea in front of him. He saw that the tea cup was a glazed green cup. The tea in the cup was filled with Dao symbols, and there were even more rules and orders intertwined.
This cup of immortal tea is very rare. Tea is actually a shortcut, and the water used to brew the tea is the innate true water. Drinking this cup of tea can allow living beings to directly comprehend the supreme path.
But these are not the places that attract Shi Hao's attention.
What he cares about is the scenes reflected in this cup of tea: a small figure walking alone into the wilderness where ferocious birds are rampant and beasts are infested. Everything starts from there...
