Perhaps he was in seclusion for cultivation, or maybe he had already left. In the vast world of immortals, chance encounters were rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this parting, who knows if they will meet again, as they too must prepare to leave Xuanwei Heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This vast domain is too complex and vast in its powers, even the main pavilion of Misty, a giant power of Xuanwei Heaven, is located here, where hidden talents abound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun and Black Bull didn't like staying here, mainly because they had no business or sense of belonging here, especially with the legendary Xuanwei Celestial Palace seemingly above the stars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reaching the Great Ascension stage, they felt a strong sense of aversion, as if the closer they got, the less they felt like wandering around as they did during the Void Refinement phase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out of sight, out of mind, they set off on the road to the Spirit Realm Manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding the Yuan Qi coordinate cases, they traversed the cloud passage for two days before arriving in front of the cloud and mist formation of the Spirit Realm Manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surroundings were tranquil, mostly wilderness, with many spirit beasts. This place was nestled between mountains and rivers, a testament to the vast resources of Xuanwei Heaven, where cultivation grounds were everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buzz—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground suddenly emitted a deep tremor, and the cloud and mist formation slowly dissipated, revealing the true appearance of the Spirit Realm Manor, with five respectful figures standing in front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Li, Qian Shan, Yao Yue, Yun Shao, and Yuan Ming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Ming was somewhat small and unremarkable, his appearance so ordinary that even if you had a photographic memory, you wouldn't recall his specific features. He was too plain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in the Immortal Prison, he spoke even less than Qian Shan and was the first human to choose to follow Chen Xun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This person had no significant background, and his reason for entering the Immortal Prison was quite odd...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He directly broke one of the celestial pillars of their Heavenly Domain's celestial palace. The powerful there wouldn't kill him casually due to the vast difference in status and cultivation, so they just sent him to the Immortal Prison for three hundred years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Yuan Ming thrived in the Immortal Prison. He wasn't bloodthirsty and didn't seem to be there to improve his cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was there to kill two people, a bold and meticulous cultivator with a strong sense of purpose, adept at assessing the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He followed Chen Xun not to become stronger like Immortal Absolute or to destroy anything, but for a simple reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He merely said to Chen Xun, \"Following you, no matter what you do, I can live longer in this grand world.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This statement had a significant impact on Chen Xun because the last person to say something similar was the legendary alien spirit of the grand world, Song Heng of the Tomb Luck Demon Fiend Clan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this person was exceedingly strange, possessing three spiritual roots, which were common in the world of immortals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't hide anything either. In a place like the Immortal Prison, where the defenses of spells and divine sense were at their lowest, it was quite difficult to hide any big secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This person had no major achievements, and even the prison guards didn't call him by name, yet he was a key observation target of Ji Yan, too ordinary to be normal!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Ming's background was also quite ordinary, with no deep-seated grudges, his family passed away naturally, and any ordinary enmities on the path of immortality were quite normal, with no sect or family exterminations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no suspicion of being possessed either, as even Chen Xun had thoroughly tested his soul age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Yan was a very suspicious person. Cultivators lived too long, and he wouldn't find it strange for someone to change drastically every hundred years, often testing people silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, from Yuan Ming's appearance, you would never imagine that he was someone who practiced the art of assassination, with a life-bound magical artifact that was incredibly eerie, refined from his own bones!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gifts of heaven and earth received within the Tower of Babel, he still used to refine bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He simply said, \"I can refine artifacts, and often the lifespan of a magical artifact is much longer than that of a cultivator.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The implication was clear... this person wanted to refine himself into a magical artifact to seek longevity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the process, he needed to live longer to fulfill his grand wish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He mentioned that his first great opportunity on the path of immortality was finding an ordinary 'Refining Chapter' in a river, and the second was meeting Lord Crossing the World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he spoke little, every time he uttered a sentence, it was always cryptic, making even Ji Yan reluctant to engage further, almost as if he didn't exist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet his combat prowess was exceptionally strong. He wasn't considered a prodigy, always breaking through at the edge of his lifespan, much like most ordinary cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart for cultivating immortality was arguably the purest among all the beings in the Immortal Prison, comparable to Meng Sheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the encounters and goals of the two were vastly different, one seeking longevity through refining, the other through the immortal path. People are always diverse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun saw the Meng Sheng-like quality in him, so he agreed, not wanting to avoid fate when it came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, there was another major reason: no being in the Immortal Prison who followed Chen Xun had a normal mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Immortal Absolute, who seemed single-minded, had an abnormal mind, daring to think of entering the immortal ancient forbidden lands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the one with the most abnormal mind was the leader, who led tens of thousands of beings to climb two thousand floors of the Tower of Babel, a feat enough to be recorded in the grand history of immortals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similar beings always have a mutual attraction, like Qi Ming and Black Bull, who never truly followed Chen Xun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leading people to climb the tower, such an act was something no one dared to try or even think of, as the Chaotic Path would show no mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was unrelated to status or strength because it was simply impossible. The normal thought for a being was to look out for oneself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, outside the Spirit Realm Manor, Chen Xun glanced at Yuan Ming, pausing on his face for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now with his Great Ascension cultivation, he still saw nothing unusual about this person, even Gu Lisheng couldn't escape his scrutiny, so this person was even less likely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only conclusion was that he was indeed an ordinary cultivator, standing here due to his own opportunities and strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Ming bowed his head respectfully, not sensing the scrutiny, but still responded with a calm voice, \"Lord Crossing the World.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun smiled and nodded, \"It seems you all have broken through to Unity within the Tower of Babel, congratulations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Lord Crossing the World!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Without me, you would have naturally broken through as well, I just sped up the process a bit, no need to thank me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun waved his hand peacefully, looking into the Spirit Realm Manor, speaking softly, \"There's actually a spirit vein here, are the cave abodes sufficient?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, the manor spans three thousand miles, though remote, it is still within the Heavenly Domain, and the fifth-grade spirit vein and heavenly spiritual qi are enough for us to stabilize our realms.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Li stepped forward and explained with a bow. He had a lot to say, especially to those who treated him sincerely, willing to bare his heart, which had led to much hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Top-grade spirit stones may be insufficient for your cultivation at the moment, but I have found other ways, though it will take time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xun pondered for a moment. The business of top-grade spirit stones was handled by his family, even Ji Yan hadn't interfered, \"So now focus on stabilizing your realms, don't rush for quick success, first establish a foothold in the Mengmu Sea Region.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Master!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The five responded enthusiastically, exchanging a silent glance, everything understood without words.\u003C\u002Fp>",1446,"2026-06-10T05:20:17.987Z",1,"novelbin.me","9df354f8b17281c18fcf43ba8ac897888c7c09b9a4372afde5da041d98681a6c","eternal-tale-chapter-600","eternal-tale-chapter-598",979,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-tale-cover.jpg"]
