339. Chapter 329: Luan Gu, Peak of the Human Dao Realm

It was not just that the heaven and earth did not reject him; when Zhang Xuan stood there, Meng Tianzheng felt that the entire heaven and earth were cheering for this person.

Every movement seemed to bring joy to the heaven and earth, as if they were congratulating this person, even faintly taking this person as their master.

"You... you... why did you not participate in that battle?"

The heaven and earth did not reject him, but Meng Tianzheng's expression did not relax.

The appearance of an intact True Immortal in the Nine Heavens and Shi Di, in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the current Luan Gu.

After all, the Nine Heavens and Shi Di could be invaded by the Foreign Realm at any time; the Foreign Realm sent top-tier powerhouses to attack this world without any restrictions or scruples.

If a True Immortal stood up to take charge of the overall situation, the pattern of the entire world would be changed.

But if an intact True Immortal appeared, it was the most terrifying thing, because it indicated that this True Immortal had not participated in the battle at the end of the Immortal Ancient Era.

This was a "deserter" from the battlefield of that year; such a person had long since lost the corresponding belief, and appearing in this world was instead a detriment to the heaven and earth.

Zhang Xuan could clearly sense the various thoughts turning in Meng Tianzheng's mind, and facing his suspicious gaze, he instead smiled easily: "I did not participate in that battle, because I cannot reach that point yet!"

Meng Tianzheng was puzzled.

And Zhang Xuan did not give a direct answer.

His arrival at this time node could be said to be a trick within a trick; there was no one above the True Immortal realm in Luan Gu.

There were two incomplete Immortal Kings, but their consciousnesses were unclear, and Zhang Xuan only needed to not go over and actively interfere.

Even with Zhang Xuan's current state and realm, those two Immortal Kings in their incomplete states were not his match.

But Immortal Kings could already interfere in the Time River, and it was quite difficult for Zhang Xuan to bypass them.

Therefore, he simply did not make too much interference.

"You do not need to understand my state; take me as your master. Your 'Body as a Seed' has walked quite well; although it failed, it can be considered to have opened up a very large path."

"Logically speaking, in your state, you are almost about to become an Immortal at this stage; the damage caused by the failure midway is also quite great. I will try to adjust it for you."

While speaking, Zhang Xuan raised his hand.

Hundreds of millions of stars sank from the firmament into his palm, then turned into the purest Origin Essence, falling into Meng Tianzheng's body.

Mainly, it sank into the large bow that Meng Tianzheng carried on his back.

"Pure Origin Essence does not have much meaning to me; I have already reached the limit in the Human Dao Realm, this..."

Meng Tianzheng spoke, only to find that the endless Origin Essence turned into the most special substance, merging into his large bow.

It merged into the Dao Fruit from his youth within that bow, allowing his Dao Fruit to be nourished and to grow and recover rapidly.

"How is this possible?"

Zhang Xuan was very calm, holding Meng Tianzheng with one hand, letting Meng Tianzheng turn into a small person in the center of his palm.

Then he walked through the vast heaven and earth of the Nine Heavens and Shi Di.

Especially when walking through the Three Thousand Dao Provinces and the vast no-man's land, they did not walk far before seeing an eyeball pierced by a spear; Meng Tianzheng was speechless at the time, feeling intense unease.

That was a broken mark left by a True Immortal, still carrying the characteristics of being alive to this day, which was very terrifying; even a Supreme had to be careful in front of it.

But Zhang Xuan smiled slightly when he saw it, and with one hand stretched out, he grabbed the eyeball in his hand.

Then, in Meng Tianzheng's shocked gaze, that eyeball and the broken Immortal Artifact left behind in those years shattered, turning into pure Origin Essence.

"Very interesting, a very special era; for me, it is simply a treasure land."

Zhang Xuan sighed with a smile.

"Even for the Undying Emperor, this is a supreme treasure land; so many items for one to Nirvana and swallow, it is simply a place one dreams of."

Zhang Xuan was laughing softly.

Meng Tianzheng only felt his scalp tingle.

Things left behind by a True Immortal were almost indestructible; even the top Supremes found it difficult to grind them away, or even could not do it at all, yet the other party ground it away with a flip of his hand.

Zhang Xuan did not swallow that mass of eternal Immortal Light into his body; for him today, this bit of matter was of no great use.

After thinking for a moment, he merged one part of this pure True Immortal Origin into Meng Tianzheng, into that Dao Fruit that was still recovering and growing.

The other part was thrown back into the downstream of the Time River; after sealing it well, he buried it underground, throwing it exactly into that area that would form the Zhetian Great Universe after Luan Gu shattered later.

And in the downstream of the Time River, Zhang Xuan also smiled slightly, and with a point of his fingertip, an area hidden in the chaos of the Zhetian Great Universe exploded with a boom.

A mass of brilliant and sacred Immortal Light exploded between heaven and earth, merging into the Zhetian Great Universe, allowing the Origin within the Zhetian Great Universe to grow further.

"In the world of the Supreme of one generation, one must dig for the power of Universe Light Fragments to merge into the Main World, while I dig for the power of the past, letting the power of the past merge into the current declining world to enhance my power; this can also be considered a unique path."

Zhang Xuan could feel his own power, which had a slight increase after such changes.

After all, he and the Zhetian Great Universe prospered and suffered together.

"But from ancient times to the present, no one has cultivated like me, right? Digging for power from the ancient times to enhance the power of the present, and then continuing to move toward the more distant ancient times."

The stronger, the more ancient; the more ancient, the stronger.

The current self digging for power from the past to enhance oneself is almost contradictory, yet it is something an Other Shore practitioner can achieve.

It can only be said that Other Shore practitioners in different worlds have different operations.

"You..."

Meng Tianzheng was silent, watching Zhang Xuan walk easily through this vast no-man's land.

He cleaned up the ruins of the broken battlefields of the Immortal Ancient Era one by one.

The places he walked through were incomparably clean; no matter what level of broken marks and traces were left behind, they were easily swept away by him.

The Dao Fruit that originally required long years to recover was almost grown to maturity in a very short time.

He had originally feared that Zhang Xuan was a supreme figure sent by the Foreign Realm to sweep through the entire world, but at this moment, he believed that Zhang Xuan was truly a top-tier powerhouse originating from the Nine Heavens and Shi Di.

"What do you want to do?"

"Naturally, to see this heaven and earth, to see that one person who was the only one to escape and achieve the supreme Dao Fruit."

"Hmm?"

Meng Tianzheng was full of confusion and could not understand.

Zhang Xuan, however, was very relaxed and composed.

"What kind of figure is worth you coming here specifically to see? Is he still alive now? If he is alive, why didn't he change the outcome of that year? Is he an Immortal King?"

He had many doubts in his heart, but Zhang Xuan had no intention of answering.

Chatting up to this point, Zhang Xuan felt his own state had already recovered as it was, and he smiled slightly at Meng Tianzheng, continuing to charge forward with great vigor.

Time could not overly obstruct Zhang Xuan, and furthermore, the areas Zhang Xuan covered actively avoided the existence of Tianxia Dier and Xianjin Daoren outside the Border Pass.

He even actively avoided the traces of Liu Shen and some powerful Immortal King imprints, only covering the areas he was able to cover.

This was actively treating these former Immortal King-level existences as Other Shore practitioners, so his mastery over the entire timeline could not be perfect; at the very least, he had no way to interfere with these figures who were also Other Shore practitioners.

But walking this way was even more relaxed, and he could cover the entire timeline.

The process of walking was somewhat difficult, but Zhang Xuan felt an unprecedented sense of ease.

Don't look at how the Chaotic Ancient Era is a mess right now, having declined to an unprecedented degree, but this is just having declined and fallen from that kind of perfect and flawless world of the Immortal Ancient Era.

Overall, it is still capable of bearing True Immortals, and even capable of bearing Quasi-Immortal Kings.

In fact, strictly speaking, in the Luan Gu Era, if someone could normally rely on their own cultivation to reach the level of an Immortal King, it would also be possible.

No matter how much it has declined, the Luan Gu Era is still a lean camel that is bigger than a horse.

In every aspect, it possesses a kind of unparalleled power.

Normally speaking, for a figure like Zhang Xuan, it would be impossible to occupy this entire timeline of the Luan Gu Era during the Luan Gu period.

He simply wasn't qualified, let's just say; it's a case of "when there is no tiger in the mountains, the Monkey is king."

But sometimes, grasping the timing cleverly is also very good.

Zhang Xuan walked forward with ease between the heavens and earth of the Luan Gu Era, actively bypassing multiple regions and directions.

Overall, the difficulty was not high.

Even though there were once supreme Immortal Kings, most of the Immortal Kings only had their imprints left, and they themselves no longer existed.

That battle in the Immortal Ancient Era was truly one where any figure with ideas died in it; they either surrendered to the Foreign Realm or died in battle in the Immortal Ancient Era.

All figures were in such a state.

Therefore, in such a state, Zhang Xuan could calmly select the traces left behind by True Immortals from the Three Thousand Dao Provinces.

He could even select the traces left behind by Quasi-Immortal Kings, the remnant bodies they left behind, or that kind of undying will.

He would actively beat this portion into a pulp of flesh and then seal it; because the energy level was too high, Zhang Xuan even had to bury this portion on the Immortal Path.

And in the downstream of the Time River, amidst the shocked gazes of countless people, they saw that supreme heaven and earth figure standing on the World Tree, one hand reaching deep into the Immortal Path.

Then, on the Immortal Path, one after another, the broken bodies of Immortals shattered, falling into the heavens and earth, merging into the entire world.

The eternally undying Immortal Light continuously gushed out from within, merging into the heavens and earth.

Zhang Xuan, at the upstream of the Time River, was performing this operation, continuously using coincidences to quietly pack and seal the traces and bodies left behind by some supreme powerhouses into pieces of land.

Then, waiting for time to shatter and the Zhetian Universe to appear, these things would naturally appear as well.

The heavens and earth were all shining; these items were originally numerous, and most would have shattered and been lost between the heavens and earth, but as a result, under Zhang Xuan's subtle interference, they all merged into the future world.

The future world was further strengthened, causing Zhang Xuan's own strength and realm to also increase, and his physical body to further reach perfection.

Becoming more powerful himself, he could then walk more easily and effortlessly within the Time River.

Moving forward continuously in this way formed a positive cycle.

Meng Tianzheng was still very confused.

As a result, he suddenly saw the Zhang Xuan in front of him smile slightly, look down at the large bow in his hand, and laugh: "It is done!"

Meng Tianzheng was shaken, and in an instant, a mass of memories appeared in his mind.

Back in his earlier years, during his youth when he lacked the most top-tier World Tree, or rather, a perfect Dao Seed.

When he wanted to embark on the path of Body as a Seed, he met with a tragic failure.

During that round of failure, he had once seen this figure.

That figure had once appeared by his side, lightly tapping his Dao Seed three times.

This caused the crisis that would have killed him to be reversed.

It was just that at the time, that supreme figure was covered in mist and could not be seen through clearly; now, looking again, everything seemed to be opened up.

And in front of him, Zhang Xuan smiled slightly.

Just a moment ago, when he was more composed, he had taken another step forward on the Time River.

Therefore, when Meng Tianzheng met with his tragic failure, he quietly interfered with a portion, allowing the Dao Seed Meng Tianzheng was nurturing within his personal weapon to recover.

With Meng Tianzheng's current strength and state, he could already directly attain the Dao and become an Immortal.

He had already almost walked the path through back then, and later, after meeting with a tragic failure and being compensated, having nurtured it for hundreds of thousands of years, under normal circumstances, he could already become an Immortal.

Of course, not a Red Dust Immortal, but a normal True Immortal belonging to this piece of heaven and earth.

Even so, this was an earth-shattering matter; after all, since the Immortal Ancient Era, the entire Luan Gu Era had not seen a single person who truly became an Immortal.

There were many figures on this land who had reached the extreme of the Human Dao Realm, but no one had ever truly become an Immortal.

"It is you, Senior!"

Meng Tianzheng was shaken, and Zhang Xuan nodded faintly.

After carefully gazing at Meng Tianzheng for a period of years and time, he pointed a finger, and naturally, a mass of light shone in the center of Meng Tianzheng's brow.

That was the path to becoming an Immortal for Meng Tianzheng that Zhang Xuan had seen through the tributaries of the Time River.

Meng Tianzheng's whole body shook, and he had an extremely special feeling.

It was as if he had had an unprecedented dream; he had truly walked onto the path of becoming an Immortal, but it was not by relying on his own accumulation to reach perfection when he went to become an Immortal.

Instead, it was in the most dire and desperate situation, when the Dao Fruit had not yet truly finished gestating, and under compulsion, he went against heaven to attain the Dao.

As a result, at that time, he succeeded, yet he also failed.

Because he successfully became the only True Immortal since the Luan Gu Era.

But at the same time, because his preparations were insufficient, he was eroded by the Darkness and Bushixiang, falling completely into lostness.

"This..."

Meng Tianzheng was bewildered, and even when recalling the final scene of the Luan Gu Era collapsing and Tian Yuan falling, he could not help but shed tears.

Zhang Xuan only said indifferently: "This is merely a tributary I captured from the River of Time, one possibility."

"When I appeared here, this possibility was already completely destroyed."
