Chapter 21: Retracing

As for whether to deal with the future Undying Emperor at the end of the Mythological Era, it was a problem for him!

It is rumored that during the Primordial Era, he had also ambushed quite a few Emperors who had proved the Dao.

It is said that Taiyang Guhuang had also been ambushed by the Undying Emperor and was slain in his later years, bathing in Imperial Dao Essence Blood!

For someone like this, Feng Qingyang could not let him have the chance to live until the Desolate Ancient Era to ambush the Great Emperors in their later years!

He wouldn't even give him the chance during the Primordial Era; after completely slaying Di Zun, he would go find trouble with the Undying Emperor!

However, the Undying Emperor's means were indeed awesome, living from the Mythological Era all the way to the Desolate Ancient Era, a period of over a million years!

No one who had proved the Dao could compare to him; it was truly too heaven-defying!

Of course, these were all matters for later; currently, Feng Qingyang only needed to wait for the arrival of the end of the Mythological Era to completely slay Di Zun, which was his goal!

With the decline of Jiemie Tianzun, the entire universe fell into silence again!

The Supremes in the various Forbidden Zones of the Beidou Xingyu also withdrew their gazes and continued to sleep here, waiting for that unreachable, illusory Chengxian Lu!

…………

The River of Time seemed to ruthlessly ravage everyone; the world is always fair, and every living being will eventually be buried in the yellow earth.

Turning into dust, drifting in this world, as time passed bit by bit, never leaving any traces!

Five thousand years later.

Di Zun, who was in the Heavenly Court, had not detected any commotion in the universe for a long time, and he was very suspicious.

"After so much time has passed, even with two Nine-Turn Immortal Pills supporting him, this Pangu Tianzun could live for so long; could it be that he has already found a way to live out a second life?"

If he hadn't slashed his Dao Fruit and become a Supreme by now, besides living out a second life, it would mean his lifespan had reached its end, and he hadn't become one of those Supremes in the Forbidden Zones!

There were only these two possibilities, but Di Zun was not in a hurry; he had plenty of time to wait for Feng Qingyang's result!

At the same time, during this period, Feng Qingyang had been under the Enlightenment Tree, continuing to comprehend the two Great Daos of time and space!

It seemed to be too mysterious, or perhaps he didn't have such talent.

Even with the help of the Enlightenment Tree, the progress had slowed down quite a bit in these five thousand years!

"Why is this happening?"

Feng Qingyang was very puzzled; logically speaking, with the help of the Enlightenment Tree, plus nearly fifteen thousand years.

He should have been able to comprehend one of the Great Daos to the limit!

"Could it be the reason for multitasking?"

Comprehending two Great Daos at the same time—it seemed that no one who had proved the Dao in the Mythological Era had done so, and the same was true for the several eras that followed!

If one had to say, it should only be Wushi Dadi; after all, these were his most proficient two Great Daos of space and time!

"Forget it, perhaps I have stayed here too long; it is time to go out for a walk and gain some insights!"

Regarding continuing to cultivate here, Feng Qingyang felt that tempering his heart in the red dust was a good choice; he had been cultivating here for nearly twenty thousand years!

Since he had encountered a bottleneck, continuing to bury his head in hard work would certainly not yield any progress!

However, Feng Qingyang did not allow any cultivators to enter or leave this place at will, so with a wave of his hand, endless Chaos light shrouded this world!

After doing all this, the Pangu Axe standing between heaven and earth returned to Feng Qingyang's Wheel Sea, and in the blink of an eye, he left this place!

The commotion caused here was not large and did not affect the Supremes in the Forbidden Zones of the Beidou Xingyu!

…………

Soon, eight hundred years passed.

Perhaps because of closed-door cultivation to comprehend the Great Dao, eight hundred years did not even feel like much time had passed in Feng Qingyang's eyes.

Feng Qingyang, who had traveled the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, returned to the Eastern Wilderness of the Beidou Xingyu.

Looking at this vast and boundless land, no emotion appeared in his eyes, but he said with emotion.

"Compared to the Primordial Era and the Desolate Ancient Era, the life essence of this Mythological Era is very abundant!"

Speaking of this, Feng Qingyang was somewhat puzzled as to why, as time passed, the life essence was far less abundant than it was now?

However, for him, the most important thing at the moment was to continue comprehending the two Great Daos of time and space!

After these eight hundred years, he had gained many insights, and that barrier had some traces of breaking.

It was estimated that it wouldn't be long before he could make this progress stop being slow and stagnant!

And the barrier that Feng Qingyang had set up when he left this world, which would later become the Huanggu Jindi, could not be entered by any cultivator!

Unless the other party was Di Zun, he would have the ability to enter; however, only eight hundred years had passed, so Di Zun naturally could not have come here!

He was currently in the Heavenly Court, waiting for the commotion when Feng Qingyang's lifespan was nearly exhausted in the Beidou Xingyu or the borderlands of the universe!

At the same time, Feng Qingyang's gaze turned to the Enlightenment Tree; after such a long time, the Enlightenment Leaves that had been plucked by Di Zun had grown again, radiating dazzling vitality!

"Long time no see; you are becoming more and more vibrant!"

Having stayed here for twenty thousand years, the Enlightenment Tree, as an Immortal Medicine, also knew that Feng Qingyang had no malice, so it bloomed with dazzling light, and a leaf containing the laws of the Great Dao drifted down, with dazzling luster flowing within it!

"What is the meaning of this?"

Although he didn't understand what the Enlightenment Tree was doing, the Enlightenment Tree shouldn't have any malice toward him.

He watched the Enlightenment Leaf slowly drift into his hand, vaguely feeling that this leaf was somewhat different from other leaves containing the Great Dao!

Regarding the uniqueness of this leaf, Feng Qingyang prepared to see what its effects would be!

Using this Enlightenment Leaf, his body instantly radiated an aura of eternity; this feeling was even more ancient than the Mythological Era!

As if it were the traces left by the two Great Daos of time and space, Feng Qingyang opened his eyes, time flowed backward, and the River of Time reversed!

Everything retreated backward: first the Mythological Era, then the Minggu Era, and only then the Luan Gu Era!

And the scene that appeared in Feng Qingyang's eyes shocked him greatly; the entire universe was as if the world had been destroyed, with countless living beings wailing!

The heavens and earth were emitting miserable wails, as if the power to destroy everything in the world had destroyed this place into such a state!

"Boom—!"

With a loud noise, Feng Qingyang immediately turned around to look, only to see an extreme immortal light shining on the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and countless gazes were fixed on it!

A figure slowly appeared in everyone's eyes, handsome and extraordinary, tall and fierce, with majesty showing between his brows!

An aura of extreme power radiated from his body, as if he were the only one supreme in heaven and earth!

"Huang Tiandi!"

These words were not spoken by the living beings in the universe, but Feng Qingyang, with a trace of shock in his eyes, spoke slowly.
