Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Trapped within the Great Dao Cage, Xu Zhangqing could meet old acquaintances through dreams, but could ultimately never leave.
In the blink of an eye, a thousand years passed, and Zhen Yuanzi, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly appeared.
As the first Direct Disciple under the Great Dao Venerable Seat, Zhen Yuanzi's strength and status ranked first among all disciples.
But like Xu Zhangqing and the others, he was a "weakness" of the Great Dao Venerable.
As long as one was connected to the Great Dao Venerable's timeline, one could not escape the fate of being erased.
Back then, Zhen Yuanzi suddenly disappeared because he knew in advance that he would encounter trouble, so he ran away.
Now, he has returned.
Looking at him, there didn't seem to be much change.
He still wore a wolf-head mask, revealing only a pair of eyes cold as winter stars.
Time quietly solidified, and immediately after, the Great Dao Venerable appeared out of thin air, asking, "These years, where have you been?"
"The future."
Zhen Yuanzi did not hide it: "The past and present cannot escape your Master's gaze.
Only the future holds too many variables; even you cannot interfere."
To this, the Great Dao Venerable did not deny: "Since you left, why have you returned?"
"I left before because I could not defeat my Master."
Zhen Yuanzi smiled: "Now that I've returned, naturally it's different!"
The Great Dao Venerable fell silent for a moment: "So, you think you can surpass me?"
Zhen Yuanzi's gaze was aggressive: "Master, you have sat in this position for too long.
Junior sisters and junior brothers, one by one either went missing or died.
Even Ninth Junior Brother, who never participated in disputes, was erased by you."
The entire Floating World Four Domains, and even the Zhutian Wan Jie, should have a new Master!"
Upon learning that even Xu Zhangqing was gone, he made up his mind.
If he didn't take down the one before him, no one would survive, especially himself.
Seeing this, the Great Dao Venerable said nothing more.
The void before Him trembled, and the River of Time manifested.
Then He extended two fingers, pinched the river's surface, and drew out one timeline from within.
At both ends of the timeline, one end was Himself, and the other was Zhen Yuanzi.
Once the line was severed, Zhen Yuanzi would be erased from the River of Time and cease to exist.
However, the moment the Great Dao Venerable touched it, a white distorting power surged from the timeline; they were like countless tiny white worms, wriggling as they crawled up His hand.
Before this power, the Da Dao Quan Fa instantly became chaotic.
The Great Dao Venerable's body even surfaced with white cracks.
"You... you actually colluded with the Jie Wai Shoes Chong!"
"To be precise, we are cooperating!"
"......"
The Lord of Seven Clothes was well known to the Great Dao Venerable.
These years, He had been opposing them along with the True Lord of Myriad Worlds and the Spirit Insect Mother.
Red-Clothed Distortion distorts fate.
Black-Clothed Distortion distorts life and death.
Blue-Clothed Distortion distorts space.
White-Clothed Distortion distorts time.
Gray-Clothed Distortion distorts laws.
Purple-Clothed Distortion distorts divine souls.
Yellow-Clothed Distortion distorts order.
These seven distorting powers, no one wishes to touch.
But this time, it happened to be the White-Clothed Lord, who counters Him the most.
"Master, your disciple will let you in on a secret."
Zhen Yuanzi stood with his hands behind his back, smiling very calmly: "Back then, the reason I could go to the future was thanks to the help of the Jie Wai Shoes Chong.
Moreover, not only that, in the future I not only cultivated the 'Big Dipper Returning Origin Scripture' to perfection, but also raised it to the unprecedented Tenth Realm!"
The 'Big Dipper Returning Origin Scripture' is the fundamental cultivation method of the Big Dipper Xianfu.
It is hailed as "The Beginning of All Laws Returning to the Ancestral Source."
Taking the nine stars as symbols, it secretly aligns with the Dao of the rotation of the stars of the heavens and the flow of time.
First Realm Yao Guang: Breaking the Army enters fate, illuminating the destiny star.
Second Realm Kai Yang: Martial Star condenses the Gang, Gang Qi protects the body.
Third Realm Yu Heng: Lian Zhen clarifies the heart, Divine Sense initially opens.
Fourth Realm Tian Quan: Wen Qu connects to the hidden, mastering stellar power.
The Fifth Realm is Tian Ji, Lu Cun opens worlds, points stars to form domains.
The Sixth Realm is Tian Xuan, Giant Gate penetrates time, perceives light and shadow.
The Seventh Realm is Tian Shu, Greedy Wolf fixes fate, twists local time.
The Eighth Realm is Cave Illumination, Left Assistant illuminates shadows, retrieves shadows of the past.
The Ninth Realm is Hidden Origin, Right Assistant hides truth, reverses time within a small range.
Every realm is extremely difficult to cultivate, and the time required increases exponentially.
However, Zhen Yuanzi, who went to the future, not only cultivated to the Ninth Realm Hidden Origin, but even advanced to the Tenth Realm Return to Origin.
Not only did he make the nine fate stars resonate, but also used the cultivator himself as a carrier, then gave birth to a strange "reverse power."
The root of this reverse power lies in time.
All laws of heaven and earth rush forward with time, irreversible.
Mortals' birth, aging, sickness, and death; cultivators' decline of lifespan and fading of Dao; the operation of the Heavenly Dao and the turning of cause and effect—all are subject to this iron law.
This is the "forward power" of time.
And the power born of the Return to Origin Realm is exactly the opposite.
Its terror lies in that this reverse power can cause an unfulfilled intention to retreat by an instant, and can cause an accomplished thing to return to before it was accomplished.
Therefore, even the Great Dao Sovereign who controls the River of Time cannot predict it.
Not to mention, it is also mixed with the white-clothed power that twists time.
"Fool!"
The Great Dao Sovereign angrily rebuked: "Once the Origin of Time is twisted and corrupted, the entire Zhutian Wan Jie will be invaded by Jie Wai Shoes Chong."
"By then, everyone will wish they were dead!"
Since the ancient times, I have always upheld the Will of the Heavenly Dao, constantly opposing the Void.
I never expected that I would instead be schemed by a Disciple I once accepted.
Zhen Yuanzi waved his hand, the smile on his face undiminished: "From the moment I made the decision, I no longer cared."
"Even if I can only rule for a moment, it is better than forever being your dog!"
His thought was very simple: since all things will eventually return to the Void.
Why resist then?
Better to face it openly!
The Great Dao Sovereign had a grim face, fully activating the Da Dao Quan Fa, wanting to suppress the white-clothed power.
But this power naturally restrained him; the harder he suppressed, the fiercer the backlash.
In just several breaths, his entire Arm was covered with white cracks, and at the cracks it seemed countless tentacles were drilling out from inside.
Moreover, these cracks were spreading toward his neck and chest.
From afar, the Great Dao Sovereign looked like a jade statue about to shatter.
"Everything is... over!"
The sound the Great Dao Sovereign had originally sent out suddenly shrank back.
But not back into his mouth; rather, back to before he had made a sound.
Zhen Yuanzi saw this, immediately stepped forward, and asked with a smile: "Master, guess who I met in the future?"
Gui Xu Long Mu.
The Lord of Gui Xu, residing in Gui Xu Long Gong, suddenly perceived something, and his whole body trembled.
He moved, and the shadows, darkness, and Shui Mian of the entire Gui Xu twisted along with him.
Zhao Ziyue hurriedly stepped forward to ask: "Master, what is wrong?"
The Lord of Gui Xu said fiercely: "Quick... quickly go call Linglong!"
Zhao Ziyue made an "ah" sound, then hastily propped up his lone boat and left.
Not long after, Xu Linglong, who had grown quite a bit, appeared; she rode Wangzai, held Black Cat Chi Ye in her hands, and asked looking up: "Master, what is the matter?"
The Lord of Gui Xu said seriously: "A Major Event is about to occur; I can no longer continue guarding this place. From now on, the position of Lord of Gui Xu shall be inherited by you!"
