From the Ming Dynasty, we will conquer the world

Although Xu Xing was talking to "Tai", his reaction was not slow at all. With a lift and a grab of his right hand, he took all the remaining Origin Seeds.

He once again stomped "Tai" into the long river of time, stirring up countless ripples that splashed everywhere, causing a series of changes in history.

Tai stretched out his hand in vain, intending to resist, but his chest was crushed by Xu Xing's foot, and his whole body was scattered into fragments, dispersed to completely different time points, unable to reassemble in a short time.

"Tai" had long been "in harmony with the Dao". In order to get closer to the Dao, he gave up his physical body that could "shatter the vacuum" and fundamentally changed his form of existence.

As a result, although he greatly deepened his understanding of the fundamental laws, he also lacked a sufficiently robust physical body compared to before. In the current situation, he naturally could not withstand Xu Xing's full-force attack.

However, while Xu Xing was able to temporarily delay the resurrection of "Tai" in this way, he could not eradicate him completely.

The tenacity of life force of those who have attained the Dao is evident from this.

After Xu Xing stepped "Tai" into the flowing water of time, he twisted his ankle to suppress these slight fluctuations, then turned his palm down to smooth out all the aftershocks caused by their battle.

After doing all this, Xu Xing raised his head and looked up at the Eternal Emperor, who stood tall and looked down at him from the end of time. He grinned, his smile somewhat scorching, and said loudly:
"I have long admired your name, Brother Dao. Meeting you today, I can confirm that your reputation is well-deserved. You truly deserve the title of 'the greatest person of all time'!"

The nature of the Creator is that he sits at the center of the universe, turning the world upside down and operating creation. He is the central being of all things in the world, and everything moves and changes because of him.

Among all the powerful Yang Gods throughout history, such an aura is enough to rank him among the top two, surpassing all those who came after him, but—he is still inferior to the Longevity Emperor.

It's not just inferior!
In Xu Xing's eyes, the Eternal Emperor was not merely a figure that could be described by words such as the center of the universe or the origin of the Great Dao; his immense presence transcended the realm of covering the sky and reaching the heavens and the earth.

Such strength and domineering manner did not inspire any awe; in Xu Xing's view, he even felt somewhat... frustrated.

This feeling of being stifled is like an unprecedented giant trapped in a small eggshell, forced to actively retract his limbs, or even curl up into a ball.

He did this to avoid accidentally breaking through the fragile eggshell, causing the ants-like lives inside to perish.

In fact, Xu Xing felt that compared to the Immortal Emperor, it would be an exaggeration to call all living beings in the world ants; they were simply a group of cells.

The highest realm pursued by cultivators is to be free from the constraints of heaven and earth, and then to change the appearance of heaven and earth. However, the Emperor of Longevity had to do the opposite, and had to accommodate and tolerate this world.

Such strength and such power truly make him worthy of being called the greatest person in all of history!
In fact, although the Longevity Emperor tens of thousands of years ago was indeed powerful, he was only slightly better than the Creation Daoist and could only suppress the five great god kings. He was far from reaching the current level of absolute dominance.

However, the two had different choices when faced with the question of how to deal with the epochal catastrophe.

To avoid the decay of time on his body and soul, the Creator chose to reincarnate once, returning tens of thousands of years later to witness the end of this era.

The Longevity Emperor, however, neither retreated nor avoided the situation. He simply used his unparalleled cultivation to withstand the onslaught and coldly observed the changing world.

All the extraordinary talents of the past tens of thousands of years have fallen into the eyes of the Longevity Emperor. Their wisdom, Taoist arts, and martial arts have all been transformed into the Longevity Emperor's accumulation.

Among them, the philosophers of the Middle Ages benefited him the most.

These saints, who were willing to forgo becoming Yang Gods because of their own grand aspirations, possessed wisdom that would astound, shock, and amaze even the Emperor of Longevity.

The key factor that enabled the Longevity Emperor to take the final step and enter his current state was Xu Xing.

From the moment Xu Xing first entered the Yangshen Universe, the Eternal Emperor had been closely watching this outsider who had never appeared in history, going back countless eras.

At first, the Eternal Emperor thought that this person was a top expert who came from the other side, but later he found that Xu Xing had most likely crossed over from another world and had not actually crossed over to the other side.

In his worldview, the sea of ​​suffering is boundless, and the Yangshen Universe is merely an island within it.

To truly reach the other shore, one must actively leave this island, either by swimming or by boat, and attempt to cross this sea of ​​suffering, whose width and length are unknown.

Even so, the divine powers and techniques that Xu Xing displayed still inspired the Longevity Emperor, who also began to operate the method of transforming into a universe, attempting to open up a realm under the shroud of the Heavenly Dao.

However, the path to becoming the Immortal Emperor was only halfway there before he had to stop, leading to his current predicament of being caught between a rock and a hard place.

Xu Xing's cultivation is based primarily on his own Dao foundation; he only uses the system and resources of the Yangshen world as a reference.

If we follow the "Tai" theory, all cultivators are great thieves, then Xu Xing would be a transnational criminal, but with a clean record locally. Therefore, the Heavenly Dao was quite tolerant of him, only taking action at the very last step.

The Longevity Emperor was the number one strongman in the area, even more like a warlord in the old days. Therefore, his every move was closely watched, and if he showed any tendency to break the law or violate the rules, he would be met with fierce action on the spot.

Although the Eternal Emperor was confident that he could completely destroy the Heavenly Dao, he was ultimately unfamiliar with the situation outside the Sea of ​​Bitterness and did not want to see this "island" truly collapse and bring disaster to countless living beings, so he endured it and reached a compromise.

Xu Xing had only been in close contact with him once, yet he had already sensed the current predicament of this powerful figure.

In fact, he had considered that, according to the original novel of Yang Shen, the Longevity Emperor had never truly gone far away.
His fighting spirit gradually faded, and he said knowingly:
"Brother Dao, you summoned me here to discuss the Dao?"

The Longevity Emperor didn't mince words and said directly:
“That is indeed the case. I originally thought that the opportunity for transcendence in this era would fall to Yi Zi, but I never expected that a fellow Daoist would appear out of nowhere and point out the way for me. Please accept my bow.”

Before he could finish speaking, this first person of all time had already bowed deeply. He was not paying homage to Xu Xing, this junior, but to the opportunity for transcendence that Xu Xing brought, and the clear path ahead that he had opened up.

Therefore, Xu Xing did not stop him, but stood still and accepted the bow calmly.

Even a simple bow from the Eternal Emperor caused the universe to tremble. A series of explosions suddenly resounded in the boundless void above the River of Time, as if the sound of spacetime collapsing.

All those stronger than Creators felt a strange sense of unease rising in their hearts. The familiar will of heaven and earth seemed to have a subtle disharmony.

Whether it is the sun and moon in the vast world or the infinite stars in the Milky Way, their orbits have all shifted at this moment. Although it is only a tiny, imperceptible point that is difficult to capture, it has truly happened.

Even after the Longevity Emperor straightened up and raised his head, this change did not dissipate, symbolizing that the universe had undergone an irreversible and permanent change due to his actions.

However, after the Longevity Emperor finished speaking, he looked in the direction where the Creation Daoist and Tai had disappeared, and couldn't help but sigh:
“Brother Zaohua has maintained his true nature for tens of thousands of years, which is truly rare. He died a worthy death. However, after this battle, you will not have much time left to stay in this realm. We can hardly discuss all the wonders of it.” Xu Xing waved his hand, not taking it to heart.

"There's no need to worry about that. Although I am leaving, I have a way to return to this world. It's just a temporary measure."

"oh?!"

This time, the Longevity Emperor was genuinely shocked.

Over the years, he has sat at the end of time, and often has his mind wandering away from this world to explore the boundaries of the "Sea of ​​Bitterness," search for the other "islands," and try to find the other shore.

However, after tens of thousands of years, the Longevity Emperor gained nothing. Not a single wisp of his divine consciousness returned. If all the divine thoughts he lost were added together, they would be equivalent to the total of several Yang Gods.

This also made him realize just how dangerous the "sea of ​​suffering" was and how rare the "island" was. Perhaps it was a better choice to leave and swim across alone, using his own strength to push the "island" forward.

This was the plan that the philosophers presented to the Emperor of Longevity.

But now Xu Xing says he has a way to come and go freely in the "sea of ​​suffering"?

Xu Xing sensed the Emperor of Longevity's doubts. With a shift in his fist intent, a bright moon rose slowly behind him, casting its clear light, like a solitary jade plate, crystal clear.

With a single glance, the Eternal Emperor saw all that existed in the vast world on this jade plate, and also saw all kinds of worlds, some near, some far, and even overlapping with each other.

These scenes flooded into the divine sense of the Longevity Emperor, appearing in exquisite detail. He sensed them for a while before withdrawing his gaze and sighing leisurely:

"So that's how it is. There are such mysterious things in this world. The myriad realms are indeed full of endless mysteries. Since that's the case, there's no need to rush our meeting."

"Fellow Daoist must still have many unfinished matters. You can take care of them before you leave, and we can discuss the Dao again when you return next time."

At their level, communication should be an extremely quick process.

However, the two were also well aware that once they began to discuss the Dao, many new insights would inevitably arise, leading to a new round of analysis, and thus time would become completely uncontrollable.

After sensing it for a while, the Eternal Emperor said:
"There is still some time before the end of the era, but we don't know how fast time flows in all the worlds."

Xu Xing replied:

"This time I am returning to the previous world. The time flow in the two worlds is similar, roughly the same. I think it will take no more than one or two years at the latest."

Having reached this level, Xu Xing can be said to have surpassed the so-called Emperor-level powerhouses of the previous world, and is only one step away from the likes of Dao Venerable and Buddha.

If we're really talking about it, in the material universe of the previous world, the only one who could be compared to it, or even fight it, was the Primordial Demon Ancestor.

Now he is fully qualified to storm the "Mysterious and Boundless World" and investigate what exactly happened in the Heavenly Court that caused such turmoil in the mortal realm.

In particular, the two who had previously descended to the mortal realm in a split-point of consciousness are the people Xu Xing is focusing on searching for this time.

He's always been the kind of person who doesn't let grudges linger overnight, but now he's endured this for a full twenty years in the Yangshen World. If he doesn't take revenge soon, wouldn't he be wasting his reputation as "the one who can pacify the heavens"?

The Eternal Emperor sensed his urgency, and without saying much, simply nodded and cupped his hands in greeting:
"In that case, I will respectfully see you off, fellow Daoist."

Xu Xing nodded, and with a light tap of his toes, he broke through the river of time, truly returning to the material universe and falling into the endless void turbulence.

When he was in the place of origin, untouched by the erosion of time, Xu Xing was not greatly affected. But upon returning here, ripples spread around him, and his figure became incredibly blurry.

The pressure from this universe was extremely strong here. Xu Xing felt like a drowning person trapped in the depths of the ocean, enduring immense water pressure, making every move incredibly difficult.

Xu Xing took another deep breath, knowing that he didn't have much time left in this world.

He regarded this pressure as a test of his physical body. He identified the direction, tore open a void passage, but instead of returning directly to the Great Thousand World, he went to the outer star river.

Xu Xing still remembered that he had made a bet with Yang Pan. Although he no longer needed the future master, he could still use Hong Yi.

In fact, Xu Xing had already planned to leave the group from Tianwaitian to Hong Yi to deal with, which would also provide this Yi Zi with some experience and accelerate his growth.

However, since there was a prior agreement, and Xu Xing was not one to break his promises, he could only ask Yang Pan to make do.

But then he thought again, the ship of destiny was already in his hands, so it shouldn't matter if Yang Pan lost another future master, since there was still Hong Xuanji, the "Son of the Great Thousand Worlds".

According to the original novel of Yang Shen, Xu Wuyi is the chosen one of destiny from the outer world, Hong Xuanji is the chosen one of destiny from the Great Thousand World, and Hong Yi is the chosen one of destiny from this era.

Therefore, only these three people in this era were able to cultivate to the level of Shattering the Vacuum. Leaving this person behind, Hong Yi should also have had his share of trials.

Half an hour ago, in the celestial galaxy, in the central world.

Meng Shenji and the others were working with all their might to refine the Origin War Fortress when they sensed an extremely mysterious fluctuation emanating from somewhere, which also sounded like a soft, crisp sound originating from the depths of their hearts.

Everyone present was a Ninth Tribulation Ghost Immortal, so they naturally understood what this meant, and their expressions changed—how could there be another Yang God-level expert fighting, and in the Origin Land at that?!
Could it be that the ancient sage emperor sensed the emergence of new yang gods in the vast world, all of whom were revived and were about to return to the mortal realm?

Everyone has heard the story of the ancient Yang God transforming into a planet. The planet beneath their feet was originally transformed from Pan Huang, and the powerful beings of the Central World naturally felt this even more deeply.

Xu Yi couldn't help but doubt one thing.

Could the prophesied great age of humanity refer to these Yang Gods returning from the long river of history to vie for the transcendent position of this era?!
Just as everyone was lost in thought, a shrill scream was suddenly heard.

"My Ship of Creation!!!!!!!!!!" (End of Chapter)
