Chapter 19: Ultimately Unable to Escape the Ravages of Time

And now, Feng Qingyang naturally had to comprehend the two Great Daos of time and space he had already realized to the limit!

With the help of the Enlightenment Tree, he could definitely comprehend them to the limit within twenty thousand years!

After all, for him, breaking ten thousand laws with one force was the main thing; as for these two Great Daos, they could also be used as support!

After all, having one more means was always good; at the very least, when clashing with Di Zun, he would have a chance to block his escape!

Thinking back to when the two Supremes had escaped from his hands, Feng Qingyang could not allow this to happen again!

…………

The River of Time flowed on, but the Supremes sleeping in the Forbidden Zones did not feel that much time had passed!

And because of the huge commotion Feng Qingyang had caused in the entire Beidou Xingyu last time, quite a few cultivators had come to the Northern Region of the Donghuang, wanting to investigate if some treasure had emerged!

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for such a commotion to occur!

However, they were basically cultivators from the Donghuang, and there were almost none with strength above the Saint Realm!

"This should be the place that caused such a huge commotion, right?"

A cultivator fixed his gaze here and spoke.

"That's right, I was nearby at the time; it was definitely the commotion coming from here, and I also saw divine light flickering, very much like the traces of a treasure appearing!"

Once these words were spoken, the group of cultivators was very excited, wanting to break in and investigate!

However, the aura emitted by the Pangu Axe alone made it almost impossible for them to get close to this place, let alone search for treasures!

"What's going on? There's actually a barrier blocking us; could it be that someone has set up a great array here?"

Seeing that they couldn't enter for a long time, a cultivator frowned and spoke.

"What should we do?"

Watching the treasure appear right in front of them, yet having no way to enter inside!

"If you ask me, let's forget it; whoever can set up such a great array must have extraordinary strength, and going in is just looking for death!"

Hearing this, the cultivators who had rushed to this place nodded in agreement; what the other party said was indeed not unreasonable!

At the same time, facing the group of cultivators wanting to break in, Feng Qingyang naturally detected it, but he didn't bother with them!

With the Pangu Axe, they couldn't get close at all, and there wasn't even a possibility of breaking this barrier!

In the end, they could only leave in frustration!

But as time passed, rumors about this place continued to spread among the people of the Northern Region of the Donghuang.

It soon evolved into a Forbidden Zone, and no one was allowed to get close!

Nine thousand years passed in the blink of an eye!

Jiemie Tianzun, who was in the borderlands of the universe, fixed his gaze on the firmament and sighed helplessly.

After so long, he still hadn't found a way to live another life, but he was very unwilling and wanted to use the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill that Di Zun had once gifted him to take a gamble!

He began closed-door cultivation here, comprehending the mysteries of living another life!

…………

Another thousand years passed!

Jiemie Tianzun in his later years opened his eyes, a scene of the universe collapsing flashing in his pupils, his black hair scattered, resembling a demon god dominating the universe!

"Sigh, could it be that I really cannot comprehend the mysteries of living another life?"

Looking at the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill in his hand, he was very hesitant about whether he should take a gamble, extend his lifespan by a few thousand years, and thereby find the mysteries of living another life!

After pondering for a long time, a clear look appeared in Jiemie Tianzun's eyes.

"Take a gamble!"

As the words fell, he swallowed the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill without hesitation, and suddenly, dazzling immortal light radiated from his body, blindingly bright, and the entire borderlands of the universe were shaking!

However, the commotion caused here was not very large, and only those cultivators who wanted to peer into this place would notice it!

Time never stops, ticking away second by second!

Those remaining few thousand years passed quietly, like the blink of an eye!

Jiemie Tianzun's lifespan was coming to an end, and he had not comprehended the mysteries of living another life!

Perhaps slashing himself with a blade and becoming a Supreme was his final destination!

"Forget it, this is the only way!"

As the words fell, a terrifying aura filled the entire universe!

The Supremes in the major Forbidden Zones immediately detected it, initially thinking it was still the commotion caused by Feng Qingyang.

They fixed their gazes on the borderlands of the universe, only to find that the figure was not Pangu Tianzun, but Jiemie Tianzun!

At the same time, Feng Qingyang also awoke from his state of comprehending the Great Dao, and looking at Jiemie Tianzun, who seemed to be about to slash himself with a blade, he was somewhat puzzled!

"Could it be that this Jiemie Tianzun cannot live another life in this Mythological Era?"

One must know that in the original work, this Jiemie Tianzun seemed to be the peak figure who created the Nine Secrets; although the plot did not explicitly state it, it was inextricably linked to the creation of the Nine Secrets!

But now he had to slash himself with a blade to become a Supreme, and furthermore, the original work never mentioned which Forbidden Zone his figure had appeared in!

However, it was also possible that he had been slain by the person who proved the Dao during the Primordial Era; that was not impossible!

Of course, after Jiemie Tianzun became a Supreme, Di Zun's conspiracy would likely be told to the Supremes in those Forbidden Zones, which was also a good thing for Feng Qingyang!

"Boom—!"

A loud noise like the roar of heavenly thunder spread from the borderlands of the universe throughout the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!

The ten thousand domains were shaking, and many cultivators did not know what had happened, their bodies trembling involuntarily, and the aura emitted made their scalps tingle!

"So... so terrifying!"

"This... what is going on?!"

A cultivator said in terror.

This kind of commotion was as if the entire universe was about to collapse!

At the same time, Jiemie Tianzun in the borderlands of the universe sighed.

He brandished his Imperial Dao artifact and slashed toward his own Dao Fruit!

In that instant, the heavens and earth wailed, and the ten thousand Daos mourned!

His aura fell from its peak, the extreme Dao radiance became very dim, and in its place was an aura of decay and decline!

Finally, Jiemie Tianzun fixed his gaze on the Taichu Gukuang in the Beidou Xingyu; he prepared to sleep here forever!

And seeing this scene, Feng Qingyang felt emotional, recalling a passage from the original work.

"What if you have proved the Dao? In the end, you cannot defeat time; you slash yourself with a blade and fall from the extreme Dao! All just to linger on, waiting for that illusory Chengxian Lu!"

However, in this Mythological Era, Feng Qingyang did not know if any Supreme or former person who had proved the Dao had deduced the Chengxian Lu a million years later!

With the arrival of Jiemie Tianzun, that Supreme did not say anything, but instead felt it was customary; the Supremes in this Forbidden Zone were all the same as him!

Even if there was ten thousand times the unwillingness in their hearts, they all slashed their Dao Fruits, became Supremes, and slept in this Forbidden Zone!

At the same time, the cultivators in the ten thousand domains, feeling this commotion, finally breathed a sigh of relief as it dissipated bit by bit with time!

A cultivator said, having survived a disaster.

"What on earth happened!"

First the great era declined, and now Jiemie Tianzun, who had proved the Dao in this generation, had also declined!

The ruthlessness of time would not spare anyone!
