In a simulated life scenario, how do you defy fate and change your destiny every time?

"The Fate-Destiny Immortal Gu?"

Lu Yuan looked at the dim-looking Gu worm with a rather surprised expression.

As far as he knew, the Fate Gu could reach the tenth level.

This Gu was refined from the Nine-Turn Destiny Gu, and it can control everyone's fate and life and death.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the number one immortal Gu.

To some extent.

The power of the Destiny Gu is almost identical to that of the will of Heaven.

It can even replace the will of Heaven and become the ruler of this world.

"How could something as powerful as the Fate Gu have fallen to such a state?"

"Furthermore, why do two completely opposite wills exist within the body of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity?"

Lu Yuan frowned slightly, carefully examining the Destiny Gu with his eyes, and quickly discerned its secrets.

in his perception.

The power of this incomplete Fate Immortal Gu lies in the fact that the laws and Dao traces within its body are not complete.

Especially under the corrosive influence of the black mist, only a faint wisp of will remains.

"Is this the will of Gu Dao?"

Lu Yuan was no stranger to the aura of the Fate Immortal Gu.

When he was refining the innate spirit gu, he accidentally disturbed the will of Heaven and was almost killed by the Heavenly Tribulation.

Later, it was the will of the Gu Dao that personally revived and defied the will of Heaven, thus buying Lu Yuan precious time to grow.

The Fate Immortal Gu trembled slightly, as if it wanted to respond to Lu Yuan's words.

However, it was too weak. Most of its power had been eroded away by the black mist. It used all its strength to barely transmit a trace of mental fluctuation.

Lu Yuan extended a wisp of his divine sense, and as soon as he came into contact with that mental fluctuation, countless images and memories flooded into his mind like a tidal wave.

After reviewing this memory, he finally understood the cause and effect of everything.

Millions of years ago.

The Immortal Venerable of Immortality appeared out of nowhere and, after experiencing countless tribulations, finally attained the position of Immortal Venerable.

He founded the Gu Dao civilization and left behind countless legends and stories.

However, he had a mad obsession with immortality.

They yearn to transcend the limits of life, to be free from the constraints of time, and to escape the cycle of birth and death.

The word "immortality" sounds easy, but the goal is too far-fetched and almost impossible to achieve.

To achieve this goal, the Immortal Venerable of Longevity used every means at his disposal and consulted countless classic texts and scriptures before finally finding a clue.

According to his concept, only by first taking control of one's own destiny can one achieve longevity.

The Fate Immortal Gu is the most important key ingredient in refining the Eternal Life Gu!
After figuring this out.

The Immortal Venerable of Longevity set his sights on the will of Heaven, attempting to refine it into the Fate Immortal Gu.

But the will of Heaven is supreme, so how could it willingly be enslaved by a mere mortal?

Just as the will of Heaven was about to be refined.

He fought back desperately, even plunging into darkness, and perished together with the Eternal Heavenly Venerable!

Dark energy is unpredictable and can corrupt and degrade all living beings, even the will of the heavens is troubled by it.

Even though the Immortal Venerable of Immortality was the strongest being in this world, he had no power to resist the erosion of dark energy.

His consciousness merged with the will of Heaven, ultimately forming the distorted Heavenly Dao will of this world.

However, the Immortal Venerable's obsession with immortality still lingered in his body.

Under the influence of this obsession.

The distorted will of Heaven in this world, based on the Gu Dao, created a parasitic cultivation system!

They take heaven and earth as their breeding ground and all things as their parasites.

He attempted to inherit the unfinished plan of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity and refine the immortal gu that only existed in his imagination!

The parasite race is precisely the means and tool used by the distorted Heavenly Dao to harvest all living beings.

However, although the Fate Immortal Gu has not yet been successfully refined, it has already taken initial shape.

It was unwilling to watch the Gu Dao perish, so for countless years it had been vying with the will of Heaven for control of the corpse of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity.

However, the will of Heaven in this realm has completely fallen into darkness, ultimately evolving into its current form.

"The so-called immortality is nothing but wishful thinking on the part of the Immortal Venerable."

"You must stop Him, or this world will be plunged into chaos, heaven and earth will perish, and everything will return to nothingness!"

The Fate Immortal Gu sighed again, and the light on its body grew dimmer, as if it might dissipate at any moment.

Lu Yuan's expression was somewhat complicated.

Although the Immortal Venerable of Immortality failed, he did not create the Eternal Life Gu.

But his body became a puppet of darkness.

Immortal and indestructible, eternal and eternal.

Perhaps this can be considered a way of achieving his long-cherished dream of immortality?

"Outsider, you do not belong to this world. Leave behind your original traces and depart immediately!"

The Immortal Venerable of Immortality gave a cold look and issued the final order to leave.

Lu Yuan smiled silently.

at this point.

There's nothing more to say, only war remains!
"boom!"

Lu Yuan clenched his fist, pushed the Supreme Immortal Embryo Gu to its limit, and immediately launched a blast at the Immortal Venerable of Longevity.

His punch seemed ordinary, without any fancy moves or techniques.

But a Celestial Venerable can destroy a world in the blink of an eye.

Even with just physical strength, one can shatter the void and cause the world to fall.

Not to mention.

This punch also contained Lu Yuan's life's worth of Dao and Dharma, and its power was so terrifying that it was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

The Immortal Venerable of Longevity, shrouded in endless black mist, also unleashed a palm strike that caused the void to tremble.

"boom!"

The two collided heavily.

In that instant.

The entire world exploded instantly, with boundless chaotic energy surging, and even many laws and traces of the Dao were obliterated into nothingness!

As for Yunxi and the others watching the battle, they hadn't even had time to see clearly what had happened.

Their bodies, along with the entire Qingmao Mountain, were affected by the shockwave and instantly turned to dust.

This is the terrifying combat power of a Dao-proving Immortal Venerable.

With a single blow, all ages vanished!

Not only that.

When the Immortal Venerable of Longevity struck Lu Yuan with his palm, a considerable amount of black mist surged into his body along with the force of the palm, attempting to erode and assimilate him into a dark creature!
If it were purely the power of darkness, Lu Yuan would definitely not look back and would run as far away as possible.

However, this black mist is merely a means employed by the corrupted and degenerate will of Heaven, imitating the power of darkness.

It might be more than enough to deal with the Dao-Merging Heavenly Lord, but it wouldn't pose any threat to Lu Yuan.

"Buzz!"

Inside Lu Yuan's dantian.

The Supreme Immortal Embryo Gu formed a hand seal, and countless law runes appeared.

Each rune represents a fundamental law.

At this moment, there were so many runes, densely packed, like a dazzling array of stars, that there were at least tens of thousands of them!

As soon as these runes appeared, they surrounded Lu Yuan like stars around the moon.

This caused his aura to surge, and his eyes shone with a captivating light as they opened and closed.

Like an ancient god-king who rules over all living beings, his aura was terrifying to the extreme.

The black mist that could devour everything and even drive the Dao-Merging Heavenly Lord to despair suddenly vanished into nothingness when illuminated by the divine light.

"kill!"

Lu Yuan lunged forward, once again engaging in a life-or-death struggle with the Immortal Venerable of Longevity. This battle...

It's either you or me who dies.

There is no way out!

However, the immortal is difficult to destroy.

Moreover, the Immortal Venerable of Longevity is the number one expert in the Gu Dao, and almost all immortal Gu are unable to cause him any harm.

Furthermore, after being transformed by dark energy, the Immortal Venerable's physical body has almost reached the realm of eternal immortality.

Even if Lu Yuan used his ultimate technique to blast him into a rain of blood, the Immortal Venerable of Longevity could instantly return to his original state!

"The will of Heaven is unyielding; outsider, you are courting death!"

The Immortal Venerable of Longevity snorted coldly, his icy eyes filled with intense killing intent.

He extended one palm.

In an instant, the stars shifted and the universe turned upside down.

Before Lu Yuan could react, he was struck in the chest with a palm, and his body flew backward, blood splattering everywhere and staining the sky red.

But then.

He took a deep breath, and his collapsed and broken sternum returned to its original shape.

His aura returned to its peak, and there was no sign of injury whatsoever!
Because immortals are extremely difficult to kill.

Even if the Great Dao becomes empty and heaven and earth are destroyed, the Immortal Venerable who has attained the Dao can still transcend the world and be unaffected by anything.

For a Celestial Venerable to kill an existence of the same level, the difficulty is no less than proving the Dao again!
This battle was truly magnificent and spectacular.

Both Lu Yuan and the Immortal Venerable of Longevity unleashed their ultimate killing techniques, even going so far as to reverse the flow of time and attempt to return to the past to nip the other in the bud before he could grow up.

"Wow~"

The long river of time was affected by the battles, becoming turbulent and highly unstable.

A drop of river water splashes into the air, dreamlike and ethereal, with countless images appearing within it.

A newborn baby, crying for milk, lay in swaddling clothes, diligently refining the innate Qi within its body.

next second.

With a flash of light, the figure of the Immortal Venerable of Immortality suddenly appeared in front of the baby.

He had just raised his palm and hadn't even had a chance to kill the infant when Lu Yuan's Dharma body burst out from the river of time and engaged him in another life-or-death battle.

And in another drop of river water.

In a remote ancient village.

An ordinary-looking boy was sitting cross-legged, attempting to refine his first Gu worm.

But the next moment.

Lu Yuan stormed into the ancient village, intending to kill the still-developing Immortal Venerable.

However, before he could make a move, the River of Time surged, and the figure of the Immortal Venerable of Immortality manifested, directly blocking Lu Yuan's path.

Similar scenes continue to unfold.

Lu Yuan and the Immortal Venerable of Immortality reversed the flow of time, and their myriad avatars fought and killed each other at different points in time.

From the ancient times when the Gu Dao flourished, all the way to the era of parasitic immortal cultivation where the insect race reigned supreme.

to the end.

Lu Yuan and the Immortal Venerable of Immortality fought their way through the long river of time, until only the two of them remained in the entire universe.

They fought until spacetime was in chaos, the heavens and earth collapsed, but they still couldn't completely erase each other's existence!
After all, a Celestial Venerable is a powerful being, and once proven, their proof is eternal.

It exists simultaneously in the past, present, and future.

If you want to kill a Celestial Venerable, the only way is to erase all traces of his existence from the river of time.

However, this method is extremely difficult, almost impossible for anyone to do.

But as time goes by.

Immortal Venerable Changsheng was horrified to discover that Lu Yuan's strength was actually slowly increasing!
Although Lu Yuan's rate of growth was very slow compared to the almost inexhaustible and boundless power of the Immortal Venerable, it was almost negligible.

But no matter what.

Lu Yuan's strength is gradually increasing and is unstoppable!
[Your comprehension is extraordinary; you engaged in a life-or-death battle with the Immortal Venerable of Immortality, resulting in a slight breakthrough in your own Dao techniques!]

[Your comprehension is extraordinary, allowing you to reverse the flow of time and fight simultaneously in the past, present, and future, deepening your understanding of the essence of spacetime!]

[Your comprehension is extraordinary; you have successfully grasped a trace of the Dao and methods of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity. Knowing yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious in every battle. You are gradually gaining the upper hand in the fight!]

For Lu Yuan, who possesses extraordinary comprehension...

Fighting is the fastest way to become stronger.

And then a series of notification sounds rang out.

Lu Yuan's growth rate also became increasingly rapid, from being on par with the Immortal Venerable of Longevity at the beginning to gaining the upper hand.

In the end, the entire battle became almost one-sided, with Lu Yuan dominating the Immortal Venerable of Longevity!
This battle lasted for over a thousand years.

Heaven and earth fell into ruin, and order collapsed.

Despite his wounded and exhausted body, Lu Yuan unleashed his final, deadly attack.

"boom!"

The river of time has become turbulent and out of control, with countless streams evaporating out of thin air.

The figure of the Immortal Venerable of Immortality also became dim and illusory, and finally burst like a bubble, disappearing forever into the past, present and future.

Upon witnessing this scene, Lu Yuan's already numb body and nerves were finally able to relax for a moment.

Such intense combat would be an unbearable torment even for a Celestial Venerable.

If Lu Yuan hadn't gone through several reincarnations, which had honed his will to an incredibly resilient level, he would have...

I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on any longer before the Immortal Venerable of Immortality passes away.

It was also through this battle.

Lu Yuancai finally understood what the phrase "the immortal is indestructible" truly meant.

He exhaled a long breath, his body, exhausted and nearly collapsed to the ground.

After resting in place for a long time, he finally managed to regain a little strength.

However, when Lu Yuan looked back again in the direction of the Spirit Realm...

But they found that the world had been shattered into pieces, leaving only emptiness.

All beings perish, and all eternity becomes emptiness.

This is the price for killing a powerful Immortal Venerable.

Even if we win this battle, what then?

When the victor suddenly looks back
Only then did I realize that my friends, family, and everything familiar were gone.

In the vast天地 (heaven and earth) and the boundless starry sky, in the end, only oneself remains.

From a certain perspective.

This is practically a lose-lose situation!
"So be it, I was born here, grew up here, and will die here."

"This world was destroyed because of me, so I will return my life to Heaven and create a new cycle of reincarnation."

Lu Yuan stood amidst the endless starry sky and let out a long sigh.

He opened his right palm, and inside it lay a tiny, barely breathing Gu worm.

Lu Yuan then clenched his fist again.

He poured all his life's knowledge and skills, as well as all his life energy, into this Gu worm.

At this moment.

The light suddenly burst forth, too dazzling to look at directly.

The Fate-Binding Immortal Gu has been successfully crafted!
Unlike the Immortal Venerable of Immortality's Destiny Immortal Gu, which was not yet fully refined.

The Fate Immortal Gu before Lu Yuan was at its peak, radiating the power of reincarnation and time.

With a gentle tremor, it caused the river of time to flow backwards in an instant.

The once broken and desolate spirit realm has now revived from its annihilation, blossoming with a glimmer of life.

Furthermore, in all parts of the spirit world, all living beings died and were reborn, returning to their original state.

But as a price.

Lu Yuan's figure became transparent and ethereal, finally vanishing completely into the world. (End of Chapter)
