Primordial Spirit Becoming Immortal, Awaiting the Return of the Immortal
Primordial Spirit Becoming Immortal, Awaiting the Return of the Immortal
Gu Changge sat cross-legged in the depths of his Inner Universe, where boundless Source mist enveloped the entire Resplendence Universe.
Vast energy surged madly toward him, transforming into a boundless ocean around him, crashing over him wave after wave, until even the crown of his head shone with dazzling brilliance.
Meanwhile, his Primordial Spirit stepped out from within his Spiritual Palace and sat cross-legged there, devouring these energies and tempering itself without pause.
In the Gods’ Ruins, the Tree of Epoch radiated ten thousand rays of divine light, where immortal light blossomed. The Epoch Dao Fruit manifested, blazing like a magnificent great sun, Illuminating the Skies and all worlds. Following Gu Changge’s will, it soared into the high heavens.
At this moment, his Primordial Spirit was being tempered by the Epoch Dao Fruit, quietly comprehending, bathed in the light of Flying Immortals within it, as immortal aura condensed upon his Primordial Spirit.
The drop of True Blood he had previously refined in the Burying Abyss now spread out like a hazy crimson mist, merging into Gu Changge’s body.
Every pore of his body spewed immortal light, resplendent to the extreme.
Terrifying, boundless power surged—it was as if a single punch could blast open eternity itself, as if a single wisp of his blood energy could shatter a universe.
Of course, Gu Changge understood clearly that he had merely reached the realm. Using the portion of rules contained within the Epoch Dao Fruit, he had mended the incomplete World Principles, thereby allowing his Primordial Spirit to step into the Immortal Realm.
However, to truly attain the Immortal Position, he would still need the tempering of the Immortal Tribulation, to transform his Physique and become a true Immortal.
Gu Changge was not worried, because he knew where the true Celestial Path would manifest.
Back when he was still at the Skyward Schloss, a Celestial Path had once manifested on the Celestial Ancient Continent.
He had, through Yue Mingkong’s hand, snatched food from the tiger’s mouth there, seizing many Celestial Spirits.
Though time had passed and circumstances had changed, if the Celestial Path were to manifest again, it would surely not be far from that region.
For now, he was merely letting his Primordial Spirit attain the Immortal Position one step ahead. Of course, given the current terrifying state of Gu Changge’s Physique, even a true Immortal Physique might not necessarily surpass his current body.
Once he fully refined this drop of True Blood and then condensed his Physique with the intent of creation, he would be indestructible through all calamities—universes could collapse, yet he would remain immortal.
“I’ve finally reached this step.”
Gu Changge rose to his feet. Immortal aura burst forth from his mouth and nose like a hanging immortal sword, directly blasting apart tens of thousands of star territories.
The universe before him shattered. The endless armies of countless races stretching beyond sight outside the Resplendence Universe were instantly reduced to dust, dispersing soundlessly without leaving the slightest ripple.
As his Primordial Spirit became an Immortal, phenomena arose between heaven and earth.
Above the Resplendence Universe, chaotic immortal light suddenly shot skyward, magnificently reflecting a distant, hazy vision of the true Celestial Domain.
Tao Yao and Empress Huang Yu were witnesses to this light of Immortal Ascension, and neither of their hearts could remain calm.
The Nine Heavens trembled. Endless brilliant light instantly pierced through the borders of the universe, causing even the River of Time to churn.
In that instant, heaven-piercing light erupted from the depths of the universe, dimming the trillions upon trillions of stars in the immeasurably distant Beyond.
“What... what is that?”
“Could... could that be the legendary chaotic immortal light?”
“That’s impossible! That’s the light of Immortal Ascension!”
“What in the world is happening? Where is the Celestial Gate? How could anyone become an Immortal? Could it be that those who went seeking the Opportunity to Become an Immortal succeeded?”
Witnessing this scene, countless Cultivators and living beings were horrified and stunned.
In the distant Beyond, the remaining Hidden Experts of the great immortal inheritances and Supreme Dao Lineages were shaken to their core, gazing toward the distant starry sky, toward the end of the universe, toward the edge of the cosmos.
The light of Immortal Ascension, imperishable through the ages, illuminating past and present!
“How is this possible? At the end of this epoch, with the Celestial Gate unopened, how could anyone become an Immortal? Even if they seized the Tree of Epoch, they shouldn’t be able to become an Immortal at this time—they’d have to wait for the Opportunity to Become an Immortal to descend.”
“But this truly is the aura of Immortal Ascension. Someone has become an Immortal at this very moment.”
The voices of these Hidden Experts trembled, unable to believe what was happening.
Judging from the direction, the light of Immortal Ascension came from the distant Resplendence Universe.
It was too far away, yet even that could not block such world-topping brilliance, capable of Illuminating the Skies.
It was the light of Immortal Ascension that crushed all Hidden Experts beneath it. The immortal aura stood above everything.
In the eyes of a being who had stepped into the Immortal Realm, they were nothing but ants—for that was a truly immortal existence.
“Too inconceivable. To witness the light of Immortal Ascension with my own eyes—though it bloomed for but an instant, someone is definitely becoming an Immortal.”
Not to mention other Cultivators—even from the most terrifying Life Forbidden Areas came voices of astonishment, utterly unable to believe it, shocked speechless.
Yet this was real. The light of Immortal Ascension illuminated the universe. Though it lasted but a moment, endless rain of light scattered down, sweeping directly toward the starry skies of the Beyond.
Many True Daoists were bewildered, feeling lost in their hearts, finding it all inconceivable.
Why had they not sensed any Opportunity to Become an Immortal in this world?
Because this was the end of the epoch—the Celestial Gate had not opened, the Celestial Path had not appeared.
Once one became an Immortal, the implications were unimaginable, directly affecting all universes, all races, and all sects.
For since ancient times, only when the Celestial Gate appeared and one walked the Celestial Path could one attain the Immortal Position.
Only by becoming an Immortal under such circumstances could one gain the recognition of heaven and earth.
Moreover, without the Celestial Gate and the Celestial Path, how could one possibly become an Immortal?
This had exceeded their understanding. They simply could not believe it.
At this moment, within the Resplendence Universe, all manner of phenomena emerged.
Sweet dew descended from the heavens, divine springs gushed from the earth, countless golden lotuses bloomed in the void—phenomena beyond description, the entire world suffused with the sacred.
Though separated by an immeasurable distance, even that fleeting wisp of aura left countless ancient existences trembling.
All races and all Dao Lineages were horrified, and then overcome with excitement and exhilaration, desperate to know which faction’s Hidden Expert had become an Immortal.
To become an Immortal in the mortal world, to ascend at the end of an epoch—the difficulty was like scaling the heavens, virtually impossible!
Even with long ages of cultivation, by all calculations and deductions, it was exceedingly rare. It required the guidance of the Celestial Path, the tempering of the light of Immortal Ascension.
Why had the Hidden Experts of all races fought over the Tree of Epoch? Naturally, to draw forth the complete World Principles, to make the Celestial Path reappear, so they could enter it and step into the Immortal Realm.
Yet now, this mysterious person’s Immortal Ascension had surpassed all their understanding and imagination. They deemed it impossible.
For no one had sensed the guidance of the Celestial Path, and naturally, none had witnessed that mighty light of Immortal Ascension.
However, the one thing all races and Dao Lineages of the Beyond could be certain of was that the one who became an Immortal must be among those Hidden Experts who had charged toward the Resplendence Universe seeking the Tree of Epoch.
For they had long since reached that step, lacking only the final push. This opportunity for Immortal Ascension naturally belonged to them—no one could have snatched it away.
Now, all races and Dao Lineages waited in eager anticipation, longing to witness the return of that Immortal.
For that would mean the Beyond of today could already accommodate a true Immortal.
With the Age of Immortal Ascension approaching, heaven and earth transforming, the environment drastically changing—having an Immortal presiding over them would make all the difference.
