Chapter 151

The Foreign Domain is distant, the Immortal Road shines brilliantly.

As the Passage to Immortality gradually closed, chaotic Qi surged within the passage, Immortal Light radiant to the extreme.

Even various Immortal Spirits formed by various laws manifested, such as Azure Dragon, Immortal Phoenix, Vermilion Bird, etc., some dancing, some surging,

The faces of Wu Shi, Void Great Emperor, and others gradually blurred, ultimately disappearing completely.

This moment.

In Gu Xuan's heart, he couldn't help but give rise to some sighs of emotion.

Since ancient times, the cultivation world has had a certain saying: Time Does Not Emerge, Space is King.

Although this is merely a saying in the world, it cannot be said to necessarily be the Universe's supreme truth.

And since ancient times, the Great Dao of numerous Heavenly Venerates, Ancient Emperors, and Great Emperors reaching the extreme also does not necessarily make them weaker than the laws of time or space by much.

But regardless.

Void Great Emperor controls Space to the extreme, while Wushi Great Emperor's Forbidden Secret Technique can also be said to deeply contain the mysteries of Time; these two absolutely qualify as having immeasurable Immortal paths.

And if they could meet each other, mutually exchanging pointers and verifying each other, who knows what kind of sparks would fly.

Even, the two great powerhouses communicating with each other, being able to fuse the Space-Time Great Dao, is also not impossible!

Only a pity that, in the original trajectory, Void Great Emperor Blood Battled Eight Wastelands all his life, perished early, never able to step onto the Immortal Road, let alone have any intersection with Wushi Great Emperor.

But now, because of Gu Xuan's arrival, the situation ultimately changed.

Therefore.

This moment, even Gu Xuan felt some curiosity; if they meet next time, what the scene will be like is unknown, what kind of mutual verification and growth the two will have is unknown, and there is also Luan Gu Great Emperor and others.

Finally.

The Passage to Immortality completely closed, the Two Realms also completely severed; when the next opening will be is unknown.

Of course.

Having reached Gu Xuan and the Female Emperor's current heights, as long as they are not in a metamorphosis Nirvana State, they can naturally join forces to open it.

Even, perhaps one person going all out would also be sufficient to achieve this.

It's just that they have already chosen to, in the Ren Yu Universe, either become Red Dust Immortals or Nirvana life after life waiting; naturally there is no need to deliberately do so.

Outside Ying Huo Gu Xing.

Gu Xuan invited the Female Emperor to discuss the Dao together; the two great powerhouses discussed immortality, spoke of the Immortal Road, and also spoke of the Di Zun.

Although the Female Emperor had never exchanged blows with Di Zun, she had long since understood he was still Alive, and Perceived the many Runes he had secretly engraved, and had arrangements, as a countermeasure.

Gu Xuan mentioned the past when he exchanged blows with Di Zun, even in the form of a certain Spiritual Mark, Reappearing the scene of That Day.

Although unable to fully Manifest Di Zun's face, because the other party is also an Existence of this Cultivation Level, the Female Emperor still saw in the Spiritual Mark that final moment, that trace of struggle revealed on Di Zun's face.

Such a scene caused even the Female Emperor to be slightly Moved.

Obviously.

She also saw that Di Zun must have encountered some trouble, or was invaded by some unknown Existence.

Even an Existence like Di Zun faces such a predicament; one can see the Huang Xian contained within!

Of course.

These matters are perhaps still somewhat distant from them; the primary matter at present should be to first consider how to, in this Ren Yu Universe, Reincarnation life after life and survive.

Fortunately, now they already have a retreat; if they truly feel Nirvana next life is difficult, they can go to the Strange World.

It's just that, whether Gu Xuan or the Female Emperor, unless absolutely necessary, neither would do so.

Afterwards.

Gu Xuan spread open his Right Palm, four Spiritual Marks emerged in his palm, like a dream yet illusory, yet Brilliantly glowing.

These are the respective Great Dao Ancient Scriptures Gu Xuan demanded from them before the four Great Supremes like Qilin Ancient Emperor went to the Strange World.

Or, they can be called Qilin Ancient Scripture, Xuanwu Ancient Scripture, Xue Feng Ancient Scripture, etc.

The so-called Stone from Another Mountain, can Attack Jade.

Even though Gu Xuan and the Female Emperor have reached their current heights, other Imperial Path Experts' Dao methods also have places worthy of reference.

Even if the races are different, it doesn't matter; there are always some unique insights and certain explorations of the Longevity Road that can let one gain something.

Many times, sitting in meditation all day for Enlightenment, racking one's brains, perhaps ultimately cannot go as one wishes; rather, a bit of inspiration from others can bring a flash of insight, even play an unexpectedly great role.

Gu Xuan invited the Female Emperor to take a look, even directly each copied a copy, gifting it to the Female Emperor.

The two great powerhouses right there in the void above Ying Huo Gu Xing, jointly discussed, and also shared their respective Nirvana methods over these ten thousand years.

Now having reached the same height, they can naturally mutually verify and improve.

Long afterwards.

This stretch of Xing Kong quieted down; Gu Xuan and the Female Emperor bid farewell, each returning to their Dao Chang; and not long after, on the Donghuang Dadi of Beidou Ancient Star, there was one more Xiao Nan Nan.

……

With Wushi Great Emperor's departure, this Great Universe also underwent drastic change!

Six Harmonies and Eight Wastelands, Heavens and Worlds all shook greatly; all Saints sensed it, Heaven and Earth's Great Dao changed, an unusual Qi surged forth, spreading Cover Sky Cover Earth.

Heaven's Heart Spiritual Mark actually detached and emerged!

This moment, Nine Heavens Ten Earths all Trembled!

Many Supreme Races, major powers paid attention to the previous travel of nearly ten Ancient Emperor Great Emperor level figures, vaguely guessing that Wushi Great Emperor and the others perhaps became Immortals.

But in the various Star Domains, there are still many cultivators who do not know this matter.

Countless people shocked and pale, terrified by this drastic change in Heaven and Earth, dumbfounded, unable to accept this fact.

This is?!

What happened to Wushi Great Emperor, could it be he passed away in meditation?

But, decades ago, he joined forces with the Holy Emperor and other peerless powerhouses, completely Swept Away several major Life Forbidden Zones; logically speaking, it's impossible for his lifespan to end this fast?!

However.

By the time not long after, the claim that the Wushi Great Emperor and several Supreme-level existences had already become immortals ultimately spread throughout the various star domains, gradually calming the panic in people's hearts, and replacing it with a certain fervor.

I dare ask the heavens, does the world have immortals?

Since ancient times, countless people have bitterly pursued the answer to this question, and likewise countless cultivators have fallen on the road.

Endless years have passed, generation after generation of Heavenly Venerates, Ancient Emperors, and Great Emperors have risen and fallen, yet the world has never seen any who truly entered the Immortal Domain.

But now, it is finally different.

The world is in an uproar; the claim that the Wushi Great Emperor may have already become an immortal has been recorded in the ancient books of many orthodoxies and powers, and has also become an enduring topic of discussion thereafter.

Time flows leisurely; over a thousand years pass in a flash.

Accompanying the Wushi Great Emperor's departure, the environment of heaven and earth gradually undergoes a certain change.

The entire universe changes completely, thoroughly no longer suitable for cultivation; spiritual qi seems to slowly fall to its lowest point, suppressing all living beings and causing lamentation.

Undoubtedly, the era in which the Wushi Great Emperor suppressed the world was an extremely glorious great era.

For a long time, the world has seen constant conquest; for a very long period, the entire great universe was chaotic, somewhat turbulent.

One could even say that even during the period when Gu Xuan and the Void Great Emperor suppressed the world, it could only be said to have maintained an era's peace, not a fundamental cure.

Because the several great Life Forbidden Zones of Beidou have always hung over everyone's heads like the Sword of Damocles.

Even someone as strong as Gu Xuan could not flatten all the Forbidden Zones; otherwise it would most likely lead to the universe's great destruction.

Only upon the arrival of the Wushi era did they have the possibility of thoroughly resolving the malignant tumors, and in the end they indeed united with the Female Emperor, successfully accomplishing this, creating the greatest myth of ancient times!

However.

Yet unexpectedly, the Wushi Great Emperor's appearance seemed to have exhausted the last of the luck of the Desolate Ancient years, seizing all the world's fortune.

Coupled with the heaven and earth essence qi already declining day by day, among the various star domains, it actually became difficult to produce a single peerless expert again; all spirits dimmed, far inferior to the past.

One could say that now this is a gradually withering great era.

The Great Dao laws suppress, as if about to enter the End of Dharma period; within visible time, Quasi-Emperor existences will have no successors, Great Saints are already peerless combat power, and are also very rare.

Human power has its limits; even though Gu Xuan has long been a Heavenly Emperor-level expert, upon perceiving this great trend, he is ultimately powerless.

And not only that.

While the Female Emperor remains long in the Red Dust through some strange method of nirvana life after life, Gu Xuan in this life also ultimately approaches his twilight years.

This life is his fourth life; his lifespan exceeds thirty thousand years, even nearing forty thousand years.

One could say this almost spans the Wushi era of suppressing the world; merely for most of the early period, Gu Xuan was in a difficult metamorphosis process, and his truly lucid time was not much.

But fortunately, he ultimately still broke through, achieving nirvana into a true Chaos Body, not letting the Ruthless Great Emperor monopolize the glory.

Such a long lifespan can be called shocking past and present.

In the world, some thoughtful people roughly calculate, and cannot help but be deeply shocked, sighing that the Holy Emperor's merit participates in creation, unparalleled through the ages!

However.

Gu Xuan ultimately still approaches the end of this life.

His white hair like snow, his face aged, very much having a twilight feeling.

For nearly a thousand years, most of his time has been spent preparing for the next life, mostly in deep-level enlightenment and insight.

Because the Red Dust Immortal road has always been defying heaven; the difficulties, dangers, and mysteries within far exceed ordinary imagination.

Even as strong as Gu Xuan and the Female Emperor, even though they have already undergone nirvana several times, counting as having quite some experience.

But whenever facing such a critical moment, they still must solemnly array themselves in readiness; one more layer of preparation means one more thread of certainty.

Regarding this nirvana, Gu Xuan has always been preparing, and has some preliminary ideas.

The foremost among them is the Great Dream Ten Thousand Ages method.

In fact.

For Gu Xuan, this life's nirvana environment has long been much better than those previous years.

After all, now the Six Great Life Forbidden Zones of Beidou, Di Fu, and others have all been completely destroyed, even the Undying Heavenly Emperor has been killed.

And there is another point.

If one says that before this, Gu Xuan actually had to exhaust everything to achieve nirvana, and objectively was constrained and pressured by many Forbidden Zone Supremes.

Then now, with the occurrence of the Forbidden Zones' pacification, Gu Xuan also truly has that sliver of possibility to seriously consider one thing.

That is, as a Heavenly Emperor, besides his own Red Dust Immortal path, can he change some other things?

In these years.

Besides sitting in meditation on the Dao Platform, Gu Xuan has also sensed the myriad phenomena of the universe's heavens and worlds, even separating a Dao Body to carefully experience, occasionally even acting.

He sensed, and personally saw many things: the hundred states of human life, many good and evil, many injustices, etc...

Naturally, the idea in his heart slowly took shape, like a small sapling, gradually growing into a towering tree.

Finally.

This day.

Gu Xuan's figure left the Holy Cliff Dao Chang, tore through the starry sky, appeared in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Ground, called out to the Ruthless Great Emperor, requesting an audience.

The next moment, the Female Emperor awoke from a certain degree of metamorphosis; initially her eyes were somewhat bewildered, but quickly became clear and unfathomably deep.

And not only that; Xiao Nan Nan wandering on the Central Plains Land also suddenly exclaimed, then flew into the sky, in an instant crossing endless distance, directly returning to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Ground, sinking into the Female Emperor's brow center, merging with her.

"Another form of Great Dream Ten Thousand Ages?"

Hearing Gu Xuan's slow narration, even the Female Emperor's gaze could not help but flash a trace of subtle wonder.

The so-called Great Dream Ten Thousand Ages method, at the Female Emperor's current height, is naturally known.

Since ancient times, this method has had some transmission; many Primordial Emperors and Great Emperors have had some understanding.

This is a supreme great method; in deep sleep one dreams ten thousand ages, experiencing hundreds to tens of thousands of lives in the dream, tempering heart and dao in the River of Time, transcending above the Red Dust.

However.

This is merely a theoretical path, extremely dangerous; consider who would dare spend an entire life within a dream? Unless one truly defies heaven, can turn the illusory into the real, and return by defying heaven.

Such a method is clearly terrifying; throughout the endless ages, not a single Imperial Path Expert has been willing to attempt it.

Upon closer examination.

In the Nirvana Road the Ruthless Great Emperor once walked, there was one lifetime that bore some resemblance to the Great Dream of Ten Thousand Ages, only the specifics differed considerably.

The Great Dao of the world has three thousand paths; some roads inevitably intersect — there is no question of which is higher or lower; they are not the same, and there is no need to compare.

But now.

After hearing Gu Xuan's account, the Female Emperor naturally perceived in an instant the extraordinary nature of this so-called "another form of the Great Dream of Ten Thousand Ages" Nirvana method.

And its degree of peril clearly surpasses the original version somewhat.

However.

The Female Emperor was ultimately moved by certain content in Gu Xuan's words, or more precisely, by a certain kind of philosophy and emotion.

For whole days on end, she sat cross-legged with Gu Xuan discussing the Dao, evolving the various possibilities of his future, deducing all manner of problems and perils, exploring omissions as thoroughly as possible with Gu Xuan, to perfect this method.

In fact.

In the vast world, across ten thousand ages, perhaps only Gu Xuan, Wu Shi, and the like are worthy of such effort from her; later generations' Ye Fan, Ye Tiandi, should also count as one.

Finally, Gu Xuan concluded his visit to the Female Emperor, returned to the Sheng Ya Dao Chang, and the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Ground once again regained its ten-thousand-age tranquility.

Upon returning, he earnestly laid down layer upon layer of Heavenly Emperor Level Array Patterns.

The boundless universe, with the Forbidden Zones nearly wiped out, can truly be said to have no one capable of forcibly attacking into this place.

Even an Emperor Supreme within the Infinite Chaos would find it difficult, unless he has already achieved Red Dust Immortality; but at this present moment, that is clearly not very possible.

Ultimately.

This day finally arrived.

In the Digong within the Sheng Ya Dao Chang, Gu Xuan lay upon a Chaos stone bed, eyes tightly shut, hair jet-black, his whole body crystalline like seven-colored divine glass, Immortal Light flowing.

His originally peerless Qi mechanism was completely withdrawn, not a shred of divine power overflowing, like cast jade, utterly motionless.

A special Great Dream of Ten Thousand Ages truly began!
