Primordial Era: Unparalleled Comprehension, Starting from Becoming a Disciple of the Three Immortals

Chapter 84 The Future Appears, the World Advances.

Inside Biyou Palace, the Tongtian Sect Leader gazed at the River of Time, at the many strange phenomena it displayed, at the towering waves, at the enormous whirlpools, and at the surging river waters, his heart stirred once more.

This is no ordinary river; it is a river of time, and the water within it is neither ordinary nor any innate spiritual water, but rather the power of time itself.

Within the long river of time, every drop of water is formed by the condensation of endless power over time, eventually converging together to form the long river of time.

He was well aware of how dangerous the River of Time was. Such a wondrous phenomenon meant that if he were to be submerged by it in a single misstep, he would truly be carried away by the River of Time.

The Tongtian Sect Leader hadn't expected that his grand-disciple would think of condensing a future body. He looked at his grand-disciple with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He was extremely surprised that Chen Qing was actually going to conjure up a future avatar.

What is the future? The future is a variable; it changes every moment, is unpredictable, and cannot be determined.

The future is full of endless variables. Even though he is a saint and can see a corner of the future with the power of the Heavenly Dao, he can only see it. Even if he sees it, he cannot be sure whether it will definitely happen.

But now? This grand-disciple of mine is about to condense his future self.

The future self represents a person's future and is extremely difficult to condense. To condense a future self, one must not only understand the true meaning of future years, but also have a future.

But now, it is clear that his own grand-disciple has grasped the true meaning of the future years and is about to condense into a future body.

Chen Qing calmly gazed at the long river of time, as if the countless strange phenomena had not appeared, his eyes utterly indifferent.

At the end of the long river of time, a figure appeared, standing in the endless river. This figure went against the current, walking through the long river of time as if encountering no obstacles, and stepped towards him.

His figure possessed boundless power and an extremely strong aura. In the instant he appeared, all the strange phenomena in the originally turbulent river of time disappeared and returned to calm.

The Tongtian Sect Leader stared at his future self, his pupils suddenly contracting.

He sensed the aura of his future self, and from just that aura, he felt a sense of crisis.

An aura of eternity, immortality, and indestructibility emanated from the future body, spreading outwards.

The boundless aura of the Great Dao enveloped him, spreading outwards.

The Tongtian Sect Leader stared at his future self, wanting to see it, but what he saw was not his future self at all; it was as if he had seen the source of the Great Dao.

He could not penetrate the boundless Dao essence; all he saw was the endless Great Dao.

It was as if the existence of the future self was directed towards all time, space, and time, transcending everything tangible and intangible, and surpassing all origins.

The Tongtian Sect Leader was very shocked; he didn't know why this was happening.

He had never seen such a phenomenon in anyone before, not even the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

When Hongjun Daozu merged with the Heavenly Dao, he would sometimes see Hongjun Daozu, and sometimes he would see a mass of origin.

However, he knew very well what that primordial energy was. At that time, the primordial energy of the Heavenly Dao was not the Heavenly Dao Ancestor himself. He had only merged with the Heavenly Dao, and only after the two became one did such a change occur.

But now, the future body condensed by his grand-disciple is like this; in his eyes, it is just a mass of the Great Dao's origin.

He couldn't imagine that at this moment, a voice echoed in the mind of the Tongtian Sect Leader: "This is the future achievement of my grand-disciple. His future body represents everything. In the future, he will be the master of the Great Dao."

Upon hearing this voice, the Tongtian Sect Leader shook his head violently. He dared not imagine or think about it any further.

Even Pangu, the master of the Great Dao, could not achieve this. If his own grand-disciple could, how powerful would he be?

Chen Qing had no idea what the Tongtian Sect Leader was thinking, nor did he know the Tongtian Sect Leader's guesses.

At this moment, he quietly looked at his future self. In Chen Qing's eyes, his future self was not what the Tongtian Sect Leader had seen.

In his eyes, his future self is himself; no matter how powerful he becomes, he is still himself.

The future body also solidified into Chen Qing. The two simply gazed at each other for a few breaths before the future body took a step forward, walking on the river of time, going against the current.

Chen Qing calmly looked towards the future and walked towards the river of time, observing everything indifferently until the river of time disappeared.

The reason why the future self travels against the flow of time is not because it cannot step out directly like the past self or the present self, escape the flow of time, and exist in endless dimensions of space and time, but because the future self is the future, and it is the best in the flow of time.

If Chen Qing encounters a fatal crisis in the future, his future self will appear on his own initiative, showing up in the long river of time to help him overcome the crisis.

The Tongtian Sect Leader watched his future self disappear, a look of confusion in his eyes. What puzzled him was why, even though his future self had been formed, it did not leave the river of time, unlike his past and present selves which went directly into the endless dimensions of space and time.

Although the Tongtian Sect Leader was puzzled, he could only continue to observe Chen Qing with doubt.

At this moment, Chen Qing condensed his past, present, and future selves, and revealed a smile.

He calmly gazed at the river of time, then leaped out of it and returned to Biyou Palace.

He severed his connection with the flow of time, sat cross-legged, and pondered quietly.

After severing its connection with Chen Qing, the river of time returned directly to the endless expanse of time and space, never to linger again.

The River of Time appeared because Chen Qing stirred it up and made it manifest. Now that the two sides have severed their connection, they naturally return to the endless dimensions of time and space.

The river of time vanished, and everything related to the river of time disappeared within Biyou Palace; all traces of it vanished.

Previously, when Chen Qing condensed his future body, the endless aura of the Great Dao, the endless Dao essence, and the endless power of the Great Dao's origin all disappeared.

The disciples of the Jie Sect, who were originally immersed in the Dao's essence and the power of its origin, all frowned after these things disappeared.

They had just been rapidly comprehending their own Dao, as if their comprehension had greatly increased, and their understanding of the Dao had instantly improved significantly.

But at this moment, they returned to their previous state, and that profound understanding disappeared. Everyone frowned, but they remained immersed in the Great Dao and did not wake up.

The Master of the Heavens glanced at Chen Qing, then sighed inwardly.

He knew in his heart that once Chen Qing had successfully condensed his future self, he had completed his cultivation of the mind, and he would not continue to cultivate after that.

The Tongtian Sect Leader silently calculated the time, and upon doing so, he discovered that three thousand years had passed without him even realizing it.

Chen Qing was unaware of all this; at this moment, he was experiencing the changes within himself.

After condensing his past, present, and future selves, he discovered that the cosmic galaxy within his body had become even stronger, and all three hundred and sixty-five small worlds had now been upgraded to minor worlds.

Chen Qing glanced at the 365 minor worlds. He didn't know when or how these minor worlds had advanced to the level of minor worlds. He entered one of the minor worlds with his primordial spirit and sensed the changes within it.

He discovered that the small world contained endless power of the five elements and extremely rich power of laws. Although it was weak in his eyes and even insignificant, he knew that as long as this world was given enough time, it would improve itself and gradually develop.

After his primordial spirit traveled to all the worlds, he discovered that they were different. After each world was advanced, the laws within it were different, and the direction of the world's advancement was also different.

Chen Qing sensed this change and shook his head helplessly.

"So be it, let these worlds improve on their own. How they evolve in the future is not my concern."

"The advancement of the minor worlds is not something I can control; self-evolution is still the best option."

After whispering a few words, he glanced at the space in front of him, and with just one glance, the space shattered.

He calmly watched as countless forces of earth, water, fire, and wind surged forth. Under Chen Qing's gaze, these forces dissipated, leaving only endless chaotic energy.

As Chen Qing gazed at the chaotic energy, he couldn't help but wonder if he was currently able to absorb it.

After all, only sages can absorb the chaotic energy, and if he can absorb it, it means that he has already undergone a transformation.

With that in mind, Chen Qing immediately began to try it.

After absorbing a wisp of chaotic energy, he discovered that the chaotic energy had been assimilated by his own galaxy. He immediately stopped hesitating and began to absorb it to his heart's content.

As he absorbed it, endless chaotic energy was devoured and assimilated by the power of the galaxy, replenishing the power of the cosmic galaxy.

Now that the universe has expanded and can store more galactic power, he naturally wants to replenish it.

Chen Qing began absorbing endless chaotic energy to replenish his own galaxy, thus completing the replenishment of the cosmic galaxy.

The chaotic energy entered the cosmic galaxy of the Purple Mansion and was directly assimilated by the power of the galaxy, transforming into endless galaxy power that began to continuously fill the cosmic galaxy.

Chen Qing absorbed the information silently, completely unaware of the passage of time.

And so, five hundred years passed quietly.

In the primordial world, time was always worthless. When a powerful being went into seclusion, it would last for tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years, or millions of years, or even an entire era.

As for Chen Qing, once he goes into seclusion, he doesn't know when he will emerge.

A single retreat can witness the transformation of the world and the changing times.

The Tongtian Sect Leader sat cross-legged on a futon, currently deducing Chen Qing's supreme Dharma form.

He has already deduced how the supreme Dharma form is condensed, and all the necessary conditions for its condensation. Now, only the final condensation remains.

I've been receiving IV fluids at the hospital for the past two days, but I won't stop updating. I might update a little later than usual, thank you for your understanding.
