Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

At first, Xu Zhangqing could still, relying on that instant of lucidity, turn his gaze and survey his surroundings.

But inside the cage, it was just these things over and over.

Purple mist.

Glazed Immortals.

Layer upon layer of external incarnations scattered around his true body.

After watching for only a year, he grew tired of it.

After ten years, he couldn't even bring himself to be tired anymore.

By the time a hundred years passed, he had lost all interest in opening his eyes.

This place was a huge cage, trapping all the Immortals inside.

Unable to move, unable to speak.

Everyone crowded together, and waiting to die became the only choice.

"Exactly how long must I stay?"

In the one hundred and eighty-eighth year, Xu Zhangqing finally couldn't endure it any longer.

He imitated those Immortals and closed his eyes completely.

As his consciousness sank bit by bit, his entire mind and spirit became ethereal.

I don't know how long passed, but in the darkness it seemed someone was shouting something.

The sound came from far to near, indistinct yet lingering by his ear.

"Wake up~~~"

Xu Zhangqing opened his eyes, but was stunned: "This is?"

At this moment, he was no longer inside the Great Dao Cage, but lying on a stiff wooden board bed.

The scene was somewhat familiar; he thought about it carefully and couldn't help but be shocked.

This place was actually the Ling Tian Periphery, Disciple Wooden Hut, Dongting Immortal Sect, Tianyuan Realm!

"I'm back?"

Xu Zhangqing sat up and stared for a good while.

He clearly remembered being sent into the Great Dao Cage, and finally, unable to endure it any longer, he let go of everything and fell into a deep sleep.

How could he open his eyes and be back here?

Xu Zhangqing took a few steps to the door and pushed it open with one shove.

However, outside the door, where was the Ling Tian Periphery of Dongting Immortal Sect?

There were no Spirit Fields here.

No mountain paths.

No miscellaneous Disciples.

Outside the door was a world without sun, moon, stars, sky, or earth.

A faint light illuminated everything.

No origin, no end.

Xu Zhangqing looked carefully once more at the world outside the door and finally confirmed that he had not returned to Dongting Immortal Sect.

Besides the everlasting faint light, there were also forty-nine Heavenly Tracks spanning the void here.

They ran through the entire world, like forty-nine long rivers.

Every Heavenly Track had a different color and a different aura.

The Fire Heavenly Track was dark red, long like a burn mark, with sparks seeming to flicker.

The Water Heavenly Track was greenish-white, like flowing water suspended upside down, flowing without cease.

The Metal Heavenly Track was sharp white, cold and biting like a sword, hurting the eyes just by looking.

The Wood Heavenly Track was verdant, with illusory branches and leaves growing and withering.

The Earth Heavenly Track was Mysterious Yellow, heavy and unadorned, motionless.

Wherever the gaze reached, there were all kinds of source-level and Great Dao-level Heavenly Tracks.

Xu Zhangqing looked and looked, feeling this scene was somewhat familiar: "Tai Xu Lie Yuan?"

That place was the boundary of the Zhutian Wan Jie.

It was changing every moment, and very difficult to trace its origin.

At first, he thought it was just various Secret Realms connected by space.

Only now did he realize that everything he saw in Tai Xu Lie Yuan was merely projections leaking out from here.

Xu Zhangqing said in a low voice: "So, this place is the source!"

The Heavenly Tracks lay horizontally, each separate.

Not interfering with each other, yet pulling at each other.

Xu Zhangqing tilted his head back and murmured: "So, where exactly is this?"

Just as he was lost in thought, a sound drifted from afar.

Like a human voice.

Interspersed with a few snatches of song.

"Someone?"

Xu Zhangqing was surprised, and immediately followed the sound.

After walking for a while, the view ahead suddenly opened up, and a garden appeared.

This garden seemed to have grown out of the void.

No walls.

No fences.

No boundaries.

Several clusters of camellias bloomed nearby, petals thick, color deep red.

Several clumps of orchid grass, leaves slender, color a green so dark it was almost black.

On the ground grew some unknown small purple flowers, only the size of a fingernail, five petals, a yellow center in the middle.

None were rare flowers or plants, but the kind seen everywhere.

There were people inside the garden.

Many people.

They wore simple robes; some played chess beside stone tables, some played zithers by the stream, some gathered in threes and fives talking and laughing, and still others lay beneath the flower clusters resting, each and every one with a peaceful expression.

Xu Zhangqing barely recognized a few.

These people were precisely the Immortals he had seen in the Great Dao Cage.

Only now, they were no longer glazed statues, but instead moved as normal, as if they had come alive again here.

"A newcomer has arrived!"

A voice suddenly rang out from behind.

Xu Zhangqing gave an "Mm," then turned to look.

Behind him stood a fat man, no more than three steps away.

That plump round face, he knew it.

At first glance he looked like Hu Bugui, at second glance he looked like Jin Buhuan.

Seven parts resembled the former in the brows and eyes, three parts resembled the latter in bearing.

"Lao Hu, no, Lao Jin?"

Xu Zhangqing opened his mouth, but for a moment did not know what to call him: "Who exactly are you?"

The man laughed lightly: "I am a Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal, Wan Buyi!"

Xu Zhangqing froze: "Wan Buyi?"

Seeing this reaction, Wan Buyi blinked: "Do we know each other?"

Xu Zhangqing nodded: "When I was outside, I met at least two people exactly the same as you.

One called Hu Bugui, my good brother.

One called Jin Buhuan, my good friend."

Wan Buyi realized: "So you ran into my three thousand avatars!"

At these words, Xu Zhangqing was shocked: "These are all your avatars?"

Wan Buyi said with a light laugh: "The Dao I cultivate is called Three Thousand Unwilling.

Actions without regret, heart without death, emotions without extinction.

Body without submission, Hu Bugui, Jin Buhuan.

These respectively represent my obsessions: stubbornness, delusion, integrity, etc."

Xu Zhangqing understood: "So that's how it is."

Wan Buyi asked curiously: "Newcomers rarely come here, who are you?"

Xu Zhangqing replied: "I am called Xu Zhangqing, from the Floating... Tianyuan Realm!"

This time, it was Wan Buyi's turn to be surprised: "The Tianyuan Realm still exists?"

Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly: "It does, it always has!"

Wan Buyi narrowed his eyes, meaningfully saying: "That's good."

Xu Zhangqing had many questions in his mind, so he asked again: "Lao Wan, what exactly is this place?

Weren't we... trapped in the Great Dao Cage?"

Wan Buyi said with a hearty laugh: "This is Dream Xuan Du!"

"Dream Xuan Du?"

Xu Zhangqing found it unbelievable: "We're all in a dream!"

Wan Buyi raised his hand and pointed at the heavenly track, explaining: "In the dream, there are three realms divided.

Upper Realm Tian Que.

Middle Realm Xuan Du.

Lower Realm You Ming.

We Immortals are all located in the Upper Realm Tian Que."

After hearing this, Xu Zhangqing was even more puzzled, asking in astonishment: "Dreams, aren't they all mutually independent?

Why are our dreams so clear, even interconnected?"

Wan Buyi patted his shoulder: "Brother Xu, all of this is related to the Dao Ancestor."

Xu Zhangqing asked tentatively: "Primordial Dao Ancestor?"

Wan Buyi affirmed: "Correct, precisely the Primordial Dao Ancestor."

Since he performed the San Dao Jie Fa, his Flesh Body has been suppressed in Gui Xu.

The Dao Ancestor's Consciousness Transformed into the Third Demon Ancestor, the Lord of West Wing.

The Dao Ancestor's Dream is even more extraordinary, having evolved the Dream Xuan Du.

Later, the Lord of West Wing pulled all of us trapped Immortals into Xuan Du through the Dream!
