I searched for corpses in the Wuding River to extract entries

Xie Que named this new method "Ascension to Immortality Method".

Xie Que lived for another 30,000 years in his second life. The Martial Heaven Dao completely collapsed, and the Martial World was swallowed up by the void.

This was something that was irreversible and unavoidable, and Xie Que could not change it.

Therefore, Xie Que could only watch helplessly as the martial world he had created was gradually assimilated by the void and eventually completely merged into it.

Therefore, Xie Que simply stepped into the river of time and headed towards its end.

It is unknown how much time has passed, but Xie Que witnessed the collapse of all worlds.

Only emptiness is eternal!

But what is the price for this kind of eternity?
He was puzzled. He wanted to find the root of the void and see why the void came about.

Xie Que stepped out of the River of Time and looked at the withering of all things and the annihilation of all realms, and couldn't help but feel something.

He had sensed something ever since his battle with the Primordial Demon.

The foundation of the void... is not in this world.

From the endless light and shadow in the long river of time, Xie Que had already discerned countless possibilities.

Just as the era was coming to an end, a grand yet numb voice entered Xie Que's ears.

Welcome to the new era.

At the far end of the river of time, a solemn figure gradually emerged.

That was the future Buddha. His appearance seemed to have traversed endless years, carrying an aura of transcendence from the mortal world.

Faced with this scene, Xie Que appeared unusually calm, as if he had anticipated it all along.

Because he had long ago realized that the Future Buddha had not truly arrived at that legendary new era.
Instead, they chose to remain hidden at the end of this era, like bystanders.

"A new era?" Xie Que smiled and scoffed at the concept.

He knew all too well that the so-called new era was nothing but a vague fantasy, a dream that could never be realized.

At this moment, their eyes met, and they could both clearly see that the river of time was still flowing endlessly.

However, those lights and shadows that once floated and sank in the river have now turned into nothingness, no longer containing any meaningful information.

This means that when this era finally collapses, the world will be completely destroyed, becoming an eternally dark void.

"Back then, even after exhausting all the secrets of heaven, I could only deduce that the origin of the void was hidden in the 'land beyond the Dao,' but I could never know what this 'land beyond the Dao' truly was..."

The Future Buddha sighed, a hint of helplessness in his voice.

"It's another world!" Xie Que suddenly interrupted the Future Buddha.

“During the battle with the Primordial Heavenly Demon, I sensed an aura that did not belong to the Great Dao of this realm,” Xie Que continued, his brows furrowing slightly.

The Future Buddha gazed at the purplish-black patterns flashing in the ripples of space and sighed:

"This humble monk once believed that stepping into the future would grant me enlightenment, but now it seems..."

Before he finished speaking, Xie Que tapped his toes on the ground, and the River of Time appeared beneath his feet: "No need for further words, I'll be right back."

The torrent of time surged around him, and billions of lights and shadows exploded like a revolving lantern.

"Parallel universes, huh?" Xie Que muttered to himself, then suddenly reached out and grabbed a streak of light.
Among them, another "Xie Que" has already borne the Dao Fruit of the Void.

"It turns out that every choice I made was creating a new world."

Xie Que saw that the "Void Xie Que" also turned around to look at him and laughed: "Foolish child, trying to defy fate again?"

In the next instant, Xie Que suddenly saw a person who looked exactly like him, traversing countless times and spaces, walking towards him on the waves.

This figure was himself from another parallel world, making Xie Que feel both familiar and strange.

"Why are you unwilling to follow the workings of the Great Dao?" Xie Que from that parallel world asked.
His voice echoed in the void, carrying an irresistible majesty.

"The Void Realm is the final destination for all ages, yet you alone... refuse to accept this fact." His words revealed a hint of regret and helplessness.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Que, who was being eroded by the void, suddenly cleaved the River of Time in two with a single palm strike, instantly turning it into two forks.

At one of the forks in the road, Xie Que saw another version of himself.

This self was struggling against the erosion of the void. Although it had been sitting there for billions of years, it still refused to merge with the void and eventually turned into a skeleton.

At the other fork in the road was his demonic form, which he had transformed into after being corrupted by the void.

Xie Que gazed at these two different versions of himself, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

His strength has now made a qualitative leap, and he is no longer the same as before.

He knew that the "Void Xie Que" before him must be a Void Dao Fruit, whose realm and strength should be comparable to the Primordial Heavenly Demon.

However, Xie Que is no longer the same person he was before.

His martial arts have reached the level of a full one hundred Daoist principles, which is the result of his many years of practice.

Faced with this "empty void Xie Que", he simply smiled slightly, then raised his hand and gently clapped.

In an instant, the "Void Xie Que" was like a shattered mirror, turning into countless ripples that merged into the river of time and disappeared without a trace.

This strength is insignificant to him now.

When Xie Que reached out again, he saw another "self".

Suddenly, "that self" turned around, and a voice came from across time and space: "You are... another me?"

"I suppose so," Xie Que said, shattering the folds of time and space as he traversed the world under the gaze of countless "Xie Ques."

Until, in a certain spacetime rift, that wisp of chaotic energy suddenly intensified.

He looked up at the higher heavens.

The end of the void... seems to be there, above the river of time!

"What lies beyond the river of time?!"

"Is it a higher-dimensional world?" Xie Que took a deep breath, and his martial will instantly vanished.

The figure of the Future Buddha appeared like a ghost at this moment, but it was all too late.

He watched helplessly as Xie Que peered into that dimension without hesitation, completely disregarding the immense danger hidden within.

In an instant, Xie Que's body seemed to be torn apart by an irresistible force, and his body and soul shattered instantly.

In the next instant, the Ascension Technique began to operate on its own within his body.

His body began to gradually regenerate, and his soul was also re-formed under the nourishment of this power.

Finally, he lived his third life!

"It seems... my strength is still far from enough." Xie Que looked at his restored body, shook his head helplessly, and then turned his gaze to the Future Buddha.

Upon seeing this, the Future Buddha nodded slightly.

He said slowly, "Let's first eliminate these claws of the void, and those false Dao fruits..."

As soon as the words were spoken, the Future Buddha and Xie Que traveled to another parallel universe.

On the ruins of the Tushita Palace, Xie Que shattered the Supreme Master's Sinful Elixir Cauldron with a single punch, obtaining the colored entry "Governing by Non-Action," the effect of which is to comprehend the Great Dao at will.

Then, the two figures appeared on the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation of Jin'ao Island in another dimension.

The air here was thick with the stench of death, and countless corpses piled up like mountains, a truly horrifying sight.

The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation left an eternal wound on Xie Que's shoulder, but it also allowed him to comprehend the ultimate Dao of "slaughter." In the Western Paradise, Zhunti and Jieyin were shattered by Xie Que's palm strike.

After the four battles, one hundred and five strands of Daoist energy flowed around Xie Que's body.

He suddenly stopped and murmured, "Is the world beyond the river of time... the primordial chaos?"

"Perhaps..." the Future Buddha replied somewhat uncertainly.

"After years of exploration, I have come to realize that you, me, and all living beings in this world are nothing more than a projection of that world."

"And that origin of the void..."

Xie Que looked up into the unknown distance, a resolute glint in his eyes:
"Even if it's just a projection, I will carve out a true path in this illusory world!"

Xie Que raised his hand, intending to explore higher dimensions again.

However, Xie Que was still instantly annihilated, both body and soul.

The Fourth Generation!
Seeing this, the Future Buddha simply sighed and said, "Then go your own way."

"I will continue to search for whether a new era can exist..."

"As long as the new era exists... it will surely exist within the river of time!"

"Go on," he said, continuing his journey along the end of the timeline.

Xie Que watched the Future Buddha gradually disappear into the distance, and he also began to meditate and comprehend the Dao, absorbing what he had gained from the several Void Dao Fruits.

Having mastered the complete Dao of Destiny, Xie Que wanted to divine what lay beyond the River of Time.

But as soon as the divination was performed, Xie Que was once again annihilated, his body and soul destroyed, without even knowing what had happened.

And so, Xie Que lived out his fifth life.

However, even the void could no longer remain still.

He could not tolerate Xie Que eliminating his henchmen and still continuing to improve himself.

He transformed into an old man dressed in black robes, calling himself "Lord of the Heavenly Dao Palace," and appeared before Xie Que.

Xie Que didn't even give the other person a chance to introduce themselves. He simply swung his arm and delivered a resounding slap to the other person's face.

This slap was incredibly powerful, catching the opponent off guard and sending them flying backward.

The residual power of this palm strike spread out like ripples, and wherever it passed, everything in the world seemed to be impacted by an invisible force, and began to disintegrate.

Even the river of time, under the influence of this powerful force, suddenly became turbulent.

The once calm river surface was now as if a storm had whipped up a thousand waves, with countless tributaries splitting off from the main channel.

These tributaries were thrown far out, eventually forming independent territories.

In the end, Xie Que finally defeated the Heavenly Dao Palace Master with absolute power, annihilating him completely.

However, the price of this victory was extremely high.

Although Xie Que successfully defeated his opponent, he himself suffered extremely serious injuries as a result.

Finally, Xie Que's body collapsed limply, plunging once again into that endless desolation.

At this point, Xie Que could no longer even use the Ascension Technique.

Fortunately, the future Buddha had foreseen this before leaving. A ray of golden light unfolded from the depths of Xie Que's soul and then transformed into a cocoon to envelop Xie Que.

Thirty thousand years later, Xie Que lived out his sixth life.

Having undergone six lifetimes of transformation, Xie Que's aura became elusive, and his body and soul no longer resembled those of a human.
In essence, it seems to have become a more mysterious existence.

Xie Que couldn't help but think of the Dao of the Taixu Immortal Emperor.

"Omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent!"

After his battle with the Heavenly Dao Palace Master, Xie Que seemed to have become an existence on par with the Void.

He could sense that, whether in this void or in a world of equal status, he could transform into an omnipotent supreme being!
Xie Que had an epiphany, and with a wave of his hand, he caused the collapsing world to begin to reassemble and reshape itself!
The martial arts world has been reborn once again!
Under Xie Que's will, countless worlds began to gradually recover their vitality.

In just a thousand years, the spiritual energy in the martial world has become increasingly abundant, and various rare spiritual herbs and minerals have appeared one after another.

Human civilization soon reappeared!

Nourished by this abundant spiritual energy, countless geniuses emerged, dedicating themselves to martial arts cultivation.
I hope to carve out my own niche in this magnificent era.

For a time, the whole world presented a prosperous and flourishing scene of spiritual practice.

At this moment, Xie Que once again caused trouble for the Void.

He understood that if he didn't go looking for trouble, trouble would find him.

It's unknown how many years have passed, but Xie Que and the Heavenly Dao Palace Master have fought dozens of battles.

The two had their victories and defeats, and the various realms in the void also experienced several cycles of birth and death.

If Xie Quesheng wins, all realms will be restored.

When Xie Que fails, all things perish.

And finally, Xie Que lived out his seventh life!

At this moment, he had become increasingly powerful, and his physical form was becoming more and more unlike that of a living being.

At the moment of my birth in this life, three thousand great Daos were hidden within my body!
It's as if... I alone am comparable to the entire void in terms of status!

This time, Xie Que faced the Heavenly Dao Palace Master again and easily killed him with an overwhelming force.

However, Xie Que also understood that as long as the foundation of the void remained on the river of time, then the void would be eternal and indestructible!

At this moment, Xie Que once again peered into the world beyond the river of time.

But the result was the same; Xie Que was instantly killed again.

In the eighth generation, Xie Que was born at the same time and lived the same life!

Time is his lifespan!
Space is his body!
The Three Thousand Great Daos are the five internal organs that operate within Xie Que's body.

The countless inspirations are like the interconnected blood vessels within his body.

Xie Que's gaze once again fell upon the river of time.

This time, he was not immediately annihilated.

Instead, they saw a magnificent landscape unlike anything they had ever seen before.

Furthermore... Xie Que also plundered a wisp of purple energy from it.

But the moment Xie Que succeeded, a large hand came chasing after him:

"Who dares to steal my chance to become a saint?!"

As expected, Xie Que was indeed incredibly powerful, beyond belief.
But he, too, was struck by this even more incredible giant hand, leaving him utterly destroyed.

However, that wisp of purple energy was thus completely integrated into Xie Que's body.

When Xie Que lived out his ninth life, he looked up at the sky and realized that his current status was comparable to that of beings who existed in the long river of time.

He merged with that wisp of primordial purple energy, and he also broke free from the inferior life status of "world projection," becoming an existence like other life forms standing on the river of time.

Their title is Immortal, or perhaps Sage! (End of Chapter)
