My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 626 Immortality
Shen Changchuan stood quietly on the mountaintop, gazing at the city below, as scenes flashed through his mind.

Many years ago,
This is a small village with only one or two thousand people, with various messy wooden buildings, dilapidated walls, and scattered fields all around.

There are countless small villages like this in the surrounding area.

later,

With his arrival, the small village gradually changed.

First, people were organized, fields were planned and constructed in a unified manner, houses in the village were repaired and made more orderly, and walls were built to be taller.

after that,

Cultivators from outside the region began to come and rest.
As a result, shops selling cultivation techniques appeared in the village, and foreign business associations began to move in.

Gradually, the small village of Dawan became more and more lively, eventually developing into a well-known small town.

after that,
With its rise to prominence, and the various improved technologies it left behind, Dawan Town has also developed faster and faster.

The town's area continued to expand outwards. The former spiritual fields had long been replaced by houses and caves, and high-rise buildings and towering city walls began to appear. More and more cultivators came and went.

As a result, the Greater Bay Area City today is in no way inferior to the former Qing City.

It has reached a level of prosperity that we never dared to imagine before!

The changes in Dawancun

Shen Changchuan had been watching all along.

He hadn't noticed it before.

But now,
As those past scenes flashed through my mind.

From nothing to something, from small to large, from backward to prosperous.
The vast world,

In Shen Changchuan's eyes, it seemed to have turned into a moving painting.

As time passed,
It was displayed before Shen Changchuan almost as if it were a tangible object!
at the same time,

In this ever-evolving and changing panorama,
The figures in my memory have all become weathered, matured, aged, and eventually quietly departed.

I'm definitely getting old.

Shen Changchuan recalled that a month ago, after his grandfather was buried, he spent a few days with his mother and uncle, and also visited some subordinates with whom he had previously interacted.

Several more crow's feet lines have appeared on my mother's face, showing the appearance of a middle-aged woman. My uncles also have more stiff beards on their chins, and their faces have lost the naivety and recklessness of my memories, but have gained more dignity and weight.

The villagers who were once subordinates, the older generation who failed to embark on the path of cultivation, have basically all left. Even the one or two thousand descendants of the villagers have long been scattered and integrated into various corners of the Greater Bay City.

Among the younger generation whose fathers had sacrificed their lives and thus received preferential treatment from Shen Changchuan, some had embarked on the path of cultivation and achieved considerable success, becoming minor stewards in the city. Others had died while exploring or fighting for the cause of Dawan City, leaving behind children who continue to strive forward.
Shen Changchuan stood on the mountaintop,

He just stood there quietly, gazing down at the city that had witnessed his past thirty years.

Recalling the past in my memory,
In one's heart,

An unknown feeling quietly surrounded me.

I don’t know how long it took,

He slightly raised his head.

My gaze is fixed on the vast horizon.

At this moment, he

Do not know why,

A poem from a past life came to mind.

"Who first saw the moon by the riverbank? When did the river moon first shine on people?"

"Life goes on endlessly, generation after generation; the river moon appears the same year after year."

Shen Changchuan's gaze was deep and unfathomable.

Back when he was in school, he only used memorizing poems to prepare for exams.

But now,
In this situation

Do not know why,

He felt a strange sensation. Time passed, and all things moved on.

Perhaps many years later, the faces we once knew will have gradually disappeared, the bustling Greater Bay Area will have faded into history, the mountains will have shifted, and the rivers will have changed course.
As time goes by, the world has changed.

At that time,
Perhaps only the sun and moon in the sky remain eternally high above!

Scenes flashed through my mind of the world's changes, the vicissitudes of all things, the rolling tides of time, and the transformation of the world into a vast expanse of land.

Looking back on the past month, and the various insights I've gained during this time.

Suddenly,
Shen Changchuan formed a sword with his fingers.
He drew a finger across the empty space in front of him.

His pointing,
There were no unusual phenomena, nor could one discern the slightest supernatural occurrence.

It was just a casual swipe in mid-air.
It was like a child waving, nothing special.

however,
Also within Shen Changchuan's stroke,
A certain feeling suddenly burst forth from within!

It’s a supernatural power!
Innate supernatural power!
then,

When Shen Changchuan advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm, he condensed the Three Azure Forest Sword Formation, a divine power seed.

later,

With the accumulation of numerous perfect-level spells from the progress bar panel, he fortuitously caused the seed of supernatural power to undergo a transformation and evolution, successfully condensing the Three Azure Forest Sword Formation into a single sword, transforming it into a sword of myriad phenomena!
This became his most powerful means of securing his dominance!
although,

As time goes by,
As Shen Changchuan encountered increasingly stronger enemies and acquired more and more powerful techniques, he rarely used his evolved innate divine abilities in battles after reaching the late stage of the Out-of-Body Realm.

But one's innate supernatural power is still one's innate supernatural power!
It exists in Shen Changchuan's heart and grows with him.

It means that he has never had a chance to use his skills.
It continues to grow stronger as Shen Changchuan gets stronger!

Until this moment,
The many thoughts and insights that Shen Changchuan had accumulated over the past month or so

With that single stroke of the finger, everything was released!
At the same time,

It had already become his innate divine power, and in that instant, it moved silently.

It incorporates the emotions and insights that have been expressed!

Shen Changchuan did not deliberately control it.

This sword strike, a manifestation of his innate divine power
In some mysterious way, it merged with Shen Changchuan's intensely expressed insights and emotions.
This resulted in a sword strike that even Shen Changchuan couldn't comprehend!
Swish!
With Shen Changchuan's finger strike, as swift and effortless as a gazelle's horns, utterly devoid of any harshness...
In an instant,
Sword light slashed through the void,

Reflecting the heavens and earth!

at the same time,

In a daze, it seemed as if time was accelerating, and all things in the world were rapidly changing; a segment of the long passage of time had been captured!
It is evident that
Within a radius of ten zhang,

The grass underfoot and the surrounding trees, as if washed away by a hundred years of time, have all lost their vitality and withered away.

As the sword light fell...
Centered on Shen Changchuan,
Within an area of ​​ten zhang in radius
Everything is dead!

It has become a dead zone!
The feeling was as if everything in this area had been stripped of time and was about to die!

Shen Changchuan stood still.
I do not know how long it has been,

It was as if they had just woken up from the scene before them.

He raised his palm somewhat blankly, gazing at everything before him.

He didn't know what had happened.
I don't know how I did it, or what the underlying principle is.

Is it ultimately an illusion of time and atmosphere?

Or did his finger truly shake time, severing the life of all living beings around him?
Shen Changchuan didn't know,

But he knew,

One's own innate supernatural power
And then things changed again.

"Then, let this sword strike be called Immortality from now on!"

After a short while,
Shen Changchuan lowered his hand, a complex look in his eyes, and sighed softly.
