I, the Chaos Being, joined the chat group at the start.

Sometimes, a simple and ordinary life is a blessing.

Many of those prodigies from back then probably died young.

And he still exists; perhaps in the future, when the little one becomes successful, he will shine again.

"Senior Liu Shen, it's been a long time."

Xu Yi bowed slightly to show politeness and attitude.

The last time was a special dream spanning eternity, this time it's the real body descending, the feeling is still different.

"Senior Liu Shen."

Jiang Taixu, An Miaoyi, and Yan Ruyu all bowed respectfully.

"Senior Liu Shen."

Wang Ye, Ying Zheng, Han Li, and Luo Feng spoke together.

"Senior Liu Shen."

Keisha used angelic etiquette, placing one arm on her chest with a devout gaze.

The half-charred willow stump remained motionless, and the air gradually grew quiet.

Soon, the willow branch hanging from the tree stump, full of vitality, swayed gently, emitting a faint light.

Centered on the Willow Goddess, a wisp of light from the laws of life formed a special barrier, completely isolating this place from the outside world and shielding it from any aura.

Suddenly, the charred wooden stake rose up in a shower of shimmering light. Within the light, countless symbols of life coalesced to outline a hazy human figure, radiating celestial light.

The charred willow stump transformed into a towering willow tree amidst the rain of light, with branches covered in runes of the Great Dao hanging down, lush and verdant, brimming with life force, sacred and perfect.

In front of the willow tree, a green robe wrapped in celestial light swept across the void, and the human figure of the Willow God slowly manifested. His specific appearance was not clear, only a tall and elegant figure with unparalleled beauty stood in the endless time!

Behind Liu Shen were three thousand orbs of light floating, each one representing a broken ancient realm, a divine kingdom, or a universe!

In every divine kingdom, there are hundreds of millions of believers who are devout and focused.

These are all people protected by the Willow God.

At this moment, the Willow God seemed to be standing upstream of the endless river of time. With just a glance back, countless cries of sorrow and the boiling of time were heard!

"!!!" Jiang Taixu, An Miaoyi, Yan Ruyu.

“!” Xu Yi.

At this moment, Xu Yi could feel the aura of the Willow God more directly, and he felt that he still had a long way to go.

Ying Zheng, Wang Ye, and Han Li bowed directly to him. Even Luo Feng looked on with longing, wishing he could follow Liu Shen and become his follower, killing gods and Buddhas alike!

This is the charm of the Celestial King; whether it's his temperament or anything else, he can change a person's perception and spirit in an instant.

"Wow, Liu Shen, you are so beautiful."

This was the first time Little Dot had ever seen the Radiant Willow Goddess in such a form.

He wanted to see the true face of the Willow Goddess clearly, but no matter how he looked, it was always blurry.

"Gentlemen, there's no need for such formalities."

Liu Shen spoke softly, her voice gentle and ethereal, like a spring breeze caressing the heart, making one feel incredibly comfortable and causing all worries and thoughts to disappear.

"Fellow Daoist, it's been a long time. Your cultivation has improved considerably since last time." Liu Shen looked at Xu Yi.

"I've naturally improved a bit, but of course I still can't compare to you, Goddess Liu," Xu Yi said modestly.

"If you have any doubts or questions about cultivation, you can ask Goddess Liu. Goddess Liu is quite kind and gentle."

Xu Yi looked at Jiang Taixu, An Miaoyi, and Yan Ruyu.

Jiang Taixu looked emaciated, his vitality waning, no longer at his peak. He trembled, suppressing his excitement, and said:

"Senior, this junior wishes to know, what is an immortal? To what extent must one cultivate to become an immortal?"

Throughout history, countless supreme beings, celestial beings, and ancient emperors have pursued the path to immortality, all for the sake of becoming an immortal.

But not a single one of them actually embarked on the path to immortality and successfully transformed into an immortal!

Furthermore, in this era of the Dharma's decline, true great beings have long since fallen into slumber and will never appear in the world again.

For cultivators of the Big Dipper Sect today, reaching the second or third level of Immortal Realm might be enough to qualify for a lifetime of Immortal Realm, and they have no idea about the higher realms or the path ahead.

"Immortal is just a title. When you conquer the years, when the years no longer affect you, you can become an immortal. But immortality is just the beginning; there are many more realms and many more powerful beings above it."

"Your physique is extraordinary, similar to some kind of supreme bloodline, but your lifespan is coming to an end. Your bloodline has made you who you are, but it has also bound you. If you can sever your origin, perhaps you can be reborn."

Liu Shen's explanation also revealed the problem Jiang Taixu was facing at a glance.

The reason why Jiang Taixu is said to have the bloodline of the Supreme is that he actually has the bloodline of the Great Emperor.

The Supreme Beings here are similar to the Great Emperors, and the Divine Kings are basically all born from the bloodline of the Great Emperors.

The Divine King Body made Jiang Taixu the number one in five thousand years, but it also restricted Jiang Taixu from going any further.

"Sever the source!!"

Jiang Taixu was exceptionally perceptive and immediately understood the true meaning behind Liu Shen's words.

However, severing one's origin is extremely difficult. His current physical condition is very poor, and even if he severs his origin, he may not be able to sustain it.

“Liu Shen, this is An Miaoyi. She is also very talented and determined to take a unique path that has never been seen before. Would you be willing to give her some guidance?”

Xu Yi pulled An Miaoyi to the front.

"!" Yan Ruyu.

An Miaoyi had given herself to him after all, and Xu Yi was very generous to those close to him.

Meeting Liu Shen this time is a great opportunity. If An Miaoyi can receive guidance from Liu Shen, it will be of immense benefit to her.

An Miaoyi cast a grateful glance at Xu Yi. Faced with a powerful figure like Liu Shen, a being of the Immortal Path, she really didn't know how to speak.

Chapter 45 The God King Severs His Own Life, Defying the Heavens

Stone Village.

Everyone stayed by Liu Shen's side to listen to the teachings. Even though Liu Shen only spoke a few words, it was of immense benefit to Jiang Taixu, An Miaoyi, and Yan Ruyu.

As for Wang Ye and Ying Zheng, don't expect them to comprehend anything, since their cultivation systems are different.

Ying Zheng's original body was already empty and his days were numbered, but when he sensed the Daoist aura of the Willow Goddess, he felt as if he were bathed in a spring breeze, and his physical condition was recovering and restoring, as if new vitality was bursting forth.

In fact, Ying Zheng's lifespan had not yet come to an end. He was approaching fifty years old, which was the prime of his life. However, he ruined himself by consuming too many alchemical elixirs in his pursuit of immortality.

If he takes good care of himself, he might be able to live for another ten years or so.

During this period, Ying Zheng basically practiced Tai Chi, a health-preserving exercise, at Wudang Mountain.

Jiang Taixu was unwilling to turn into dust and have his lifespan come to an end. Moreover, he was fortunate enough to meet a "celestial being" like Liu Shen. He wanted to sever his divine king origin here and be reborn in the next life.

However, his original essence has weakened after four thousand years and has been almost completely depleted, so he may not be able to undergo self-severance.

The Willow Goddess didn't pay much attention to external things. Even when Little Dot was reborn, she gave him a bit of life, allowing him to survive.

The fact that Little One was able to survive and endure after the Supreme Bone was dug out was mostly due to his own willpower.

Jiang Taixu was no ordinary person, and his bloodline was also extraordinary. Liu Shen gave this cultivator from a later generation a little care.

She waved one of her willow branches in the air, and a wisp of life energy, along with life runes, was imprinted on Jiang Taixu's body. This gave Jiang Taixu's depleted essence a glimmer of life, but only a glimmer.

"The simplest and most basic truths are contained in ordinary things. If an ancient tree breaks, it may die because its vitality has long been exhausted."

"Like chives, when they are first planted, they are yellow and thin, but after being harvested one crop after another, they become greener and thicker."

"Or it's like a silkworm. If it stays trapped in its cocoon, it will suffocate and perish because it has woven its own cocoon."

But if it gives its all to break free of its cocoon, it will transform into a butterfly, bright and beautiful.

This is a rebirth, a transcendence of the past.

When Liu Shen spoke, it seemed as if she were speaking to Jiang Taixu, but also as if she were addressing everyone.

The principles are universal; everyone knows them, but very few can truly put them into practice and succeed.

Willow Goddess's words were like a final boost to Jiang Taixu's resolve, making him determined.

"Thank you, Goddess Liu."

Jiang Taixu bowed and then went to Shicun to seclude himself in seclusion.

Either you live a life in reverse, or you are reduced to ashes.

However, before going into seclusion, in order to avoid failure, Jiang Taixu passed on his secret "Fighting" technique to Xu Yi.

Hopefully, Xu Yi will pass on his skills to an outstanding descendant of the Jiang family in the future.

In fact, Jiang Taixu did not know that Xu Yi had already obtained the Battle Saint Technique.

In response, Xu Yi also hoped that Jiang Taixu, who lived in the Eastern Wilderness four thousand years ago, could break through the deadly barrier.

An Miaoyi and Yan Ruyu benefited greatly from Liu Shen's guidance.
