The primordial era began with the Upper Cave Man.

The first step of the Golden Immortal realm was completed, and the second to fifth steps, as well as the sixth step, were all completed. This time, it was a true completion, and he was ready to enter the Taiyi Dao Realm.

It can be proven that many conditions are required to reach the Taiyi realm. First, one must gather all the past figures in the river of time into one place. Only in this way can one achieve the original version of the Taiyi Dao realm.

However, later versions of the cultivation realm, after being updated many times by the predecessors, included the struggle to break free from the river of time and achieve ultimate sublimation. One of the important factors in breaking free from the river of time lies in achieving success and creating, using both the positive and negative paths to know all the great Daos of the primordial world, and finally supporting one's own unique self to escape the river of time.

This led to the creation of the fifth step of the Golden Immortal realm.

The Taiyi who achieves this in the future will have many benefits when he attains the Great Luo.

Before the realm of Great Luo Wuji was opened, Great Luo was the ultimate goal of many cultivators. Therefore, all cultivation realms before this were divided in order to reach this realm, with meticulous and step-by-step progression, ultimately leading to Great Luo.

But then a new realm, the Great Luo Limitless, emerged, and many of the realms before it had to be updated accordingly.

However, the Golden Immortal realm was too crucial, and he could not break through it until the creation of the multiverse, which opened up the sixth step of the Golden Immortal realm. This sixth step was for the Great Luo realm, and also for the Great Luo Limitless realm that followed.

This change also prompted the update of the Taiyi Dao Realm version.

Of course, Luo Zu is not yet aware of the changes in the minor realms within the Taiyi Dao Realm; at the moment, he only wants to first attain Taiyi.

Now that the crucial moment has arrived, he remains calm and composed, for he is already absolutely certain of this realm. After all, his true spirit has already attained a different kind of Taiyi, using a primordial spirit universe as its foundation to manifest all the great Daos in the world.

The first condition for proving Taiyi's identity—returning to the past as the sole entity—was very easy for him.

Luo Zu sat motionless in his cave, and time flew by around him, but not downstream; rather, it chased after the old days.

Familiar figures were thus linked together in a nonlinear spacetime of extremely high dimension, and then his current figure quickly permeated them.

However, when Luo Zu imbued his first past self with his own Daoist essence, he felt a resistance.

This was prevented by the decree of the Dao Ancestor. His concept of past time and space was one that did not allow easy interference; otherwise, even the Great Luo Wuji would suffer attacks from the Dao Ancestor's Daoist laws.

But this resistance was just that—resistance—for Luo Zu, and it quickly dissipated.

It seemed that they had confirmed that Luo Zu only wanted to prove Taiyi, and was not distorting the historical records of the past, so they made an exception for him.

After receiving the Dao Ancestor's "affirmation" and "encouragement," Luo Zu became even more motivated.

"Thank you for your help, Dao Ancestor." After feeling the resistance disappear, Luo Zu immediately bowed to the eight directions of heaven and earth to express his gratitude.

His every move was under the observation of the Dao Ancestor, or rather, there was no one in the entire prehistoric world who was not under the Dao Ancestor's watchful eye.

Even the most sages could not escape it.

In the vast universe, only He is truly omniscient and omnipotent.

Of course, this was just Luo Zu's guess; he couldn't say for sure what the truth was.

After all, he couldn't possibly fathom the level of the Dao Ancestor or the Sages.

His most pressing matter right now is to prove himself as Taiyi.

His Daoist aura was easily absorbed from a past body that existed a fraction of a millisecond ago.

The closer the past self is, the easier it is to be corrupted. However, Luo Zu's primordial spirit and Dao fruit are constantly growing stronger, so even a fraction of a moment ago is vastly different from the present.

However, when it came to retrieving his past self, Luo Zu was by no means slow.

Only a moment has passed since the beginning of time, yet he has already traced back to his past self a hundred years ago.

He witnessed his own past weakness and realized that the gap between Taiyi and Golden Immortal was far greater than he had imagined. Even if he could master ten thousand or thirty thousand fourth-order immortal techniques, he still could not defeat Taiyi.

This is indeed a difference between dimensions; a higher dimension can easily crush a lower dimension.

Another instant passed, and Luo Zu's past self was absorbed into five hundred years ago.

He should be grateful that he has achieved what he has in a very short time. If it were other Golden Immortals in the prehistoric world, it would take hundreds of millions or even billions of years.

Some Golden Immortals can be traced back to the time of creation, and even Luo Zu doubted whether such Golden Immortals who had attained the Taiyi realm could reach the Daluo realm in one step.

After all, it's been such a long time, the power required for this must be considerable, and a Golden Immortal with this accumulation might actually skip the Taiyi realm directly.

Three more moments passed.

Luo Zu traced his lineage back to three thousand years ago.

The speed increased again, and it seemed that the obstacles posed by those "unfamiliar" past selves no longer existed.

He easily corrupted them all and brought them under his control.

Five more moments passed.

This time, the body was traced back to its past life nine thousand years ago.

At this time, he was still in seclusion in his cave in Kunlun Mountain. With just one call, he made others willingly become the One and Only.

Luo Zu was now sitting in his cave, filled with various kinds of mysterious light. The echoes from the many Great Daos of the Primordial World had become tangible phenomena manifesting on Luo Zu's body.

At this moment, Luo Zu seemed to have become the spokesperson for the boundless Great Dao of the primordial world, and the sense of omniscience he had long ago returned.

The boundless information of the primordial multiverse was rapidly entering his mind and spirit.

His primordial spirit is now able to barely receive so much information without feeling any swelling or fullness, and it is impossible for it to self-destruct on the spot, directly dissolving into nothingness.

He gathered all the information and kept receiving it, but if this continued, in less than ten moments, he would be filled with this cosmic information. If he did not release it, his primordial spirit and physical body would self-destruct, or he would be directly assimilated by this cosmic information, ultimately ending up as a Dao-transformed universe.

This urged him to speed up and stop being so "slow and leisurely".

The speed at which we trace back to the past is getting faster and faster.

Ten moments later, Luo Zu had absorbed his past self from 23,000 years ago.

His cultivation level also increased dramatically, which helped him stabilize his primordial spirit and physical body, preventing him from self-destructing on the spot due to the cosmic information that constantly entered his primordial spirit.

"Me from 23,000 years ago," Luo Zu couldn't help but sigh.

At this time, he had already become a Golden Immortal, but his cultivation level was only at the fourth step of the Golden Immortal realm, and the gap between him and his current level was getting bigger and bigger.

He was now wondering whether he would eventually trace back to his past self when he first arrived in the primordial world, or to his past self when he arrived on Earth.

Time cannot stand still, and Luo Zu's work of collecting the past will not stop.

Moreover, he suddenly realized something: the Golden Immortal didn't seem to need him to completely imbue his past selves with his current Daoist aura in such a short time. He could do it step by step, slowly, even if it took thousands or tens of thousands of years, as long as he eventually gathered all his past selves together.

Thinking of this, Luo Zu quickly put it out of his mind. He didn't care about these things. Since he was going to do extraordinary things, he would naturally have to be an extraordinary person. So, he should be different from other Golden Immortals. It would be better if he was even more different and stronger than them.

Only in this way can one succeed in the cause they wish to achieve in the primordial world.

"I am no ordinary person; there is no one like me in this world."

With a thought, Luo Zu absorbed another ten thousand years of his past self, further increasing his cultivation.

Going back further, to before he became a Golden Immortal, the difference between him then and now is enormous. One is in heaven and the other is on earth; they are practically two different beings.

This is the difference between mortal beings and beings of the Great Dao.

In fact, after Luo Zu acquired the Taiyi characteristic, he often had the ability to travel back in time to observe his past self, but he could not interfere arbitrarily. This was not only due to his individual abilities, but also because of the Dao Ancestor's decree that prevented him from doing so.

However, this did not stop him from "reviewing" his past self. Although he could not change the past, he could continuously update his own power to make the foundation of his current cultivation level more and more solid.

The same applies now. Luo Zu cannot interfere with the past, cannot change anything, and cannot alter any regrets or losses.

But Luo Zu had long since accepted his past. Those regrets were his own, and there was nothing he couldn't accept. Even if he had to go through it all again... perhaps this was the only choice he would have.

maybe.

He was also in the Kunlun Mountains 40,000 years ago.

At that time, he was just a novice at the Golden Immortal realm.

He also made many friends in the prehistoric world at that time.

At the same time, I lost many friends.

Because at this time, the war between the lich and demons had also reached a climax. The lich and demons were in a bloodthirsty frenzy, and their subordinates were also in a bloodthirsty frenzy. Some of the fellow Daoists from Kunlun Mountain received requests for help from their own kind or friends down the mountain, and after they went down the mountain, they never returned.

This is quite normal, because they are ultimately just rogue cultivators, and it is quite difficult for them to protect themselves in such a chaotic world.

As you can see, even the Crane Boy under the Jade Purity Sage perished. Even the Sage could not find out the cause, nor could he retrieve his soul, reshape his body, or bring him back to life.

It can only be said that the situation at the time was really complicated. In the midst of the chaos, some people naturally wanted to take advantage of the situation and do some shady things.

Luo Zu could not stop such a thing; the primordial world was such that even if he attained the Great Luo realm, he could not change it.

He can only wait, wait for another major trend to emerge, which will then shatter the current trend.

Fifty thousand years ago.

At this time, Luo Zu was not inexperienced; he had already attained the Golden Immortal realm, and some major events in the prehistoric world had already begun because of him.

At that moment, he was still thinking that he could also influence some major events in the primordial world.

However, many powerful figures slapped him hard across the face, making Luo Zu realize the reality that he was not a special person.

However, this mindset did not last long, and He soon realized that He was no ordinary person.

Nuwa created so many human beings, how many of them were exceptional?

Luo Zu gradually came to believe that he, as a third-generation human, might be a unique individual.

Of course, that's what he thinks now.

He came to the primordial world, so he must have come to accomplish something. He can't come naked and then go naked as well.

The past self from 60,000 years ago.

When Luo Zu first emerged from obscurity, he was already a Xuanxian (a high-level immortal), and his cultivation and Daoist techniques were among the best in the primordial world.

"Among the immortals, I am invincible." Luo Zu lingered here for a moment, sighing for his past self.

Sixty-five thousand years ago.

He went to Longevity Mountain, Buzhou Mountain, and Leize, broadening his horizons and becoming no longer the timid little quail he once was, trembling at the mere passing of a Kuafu tribesman.

"No longer needing to depend on others."

Sixty-eight thousand years ago.

He left Luoxiang and obtained the Hongyun Cave Heaven arranged by the Hongyun Ancestor.

Sixty-nine thousand years ago.

At this time, he was still away from Luoxiang, and many things were gradually becoming different.

Seventy thousand years ago.

Upon first arriving in this desolate land, he wore a skirt made of animal skin, tied with a pair of straw underwear, and carried a stone spear.

"Hello, my future." The past self was calm, as if it had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Is there still a road ahead?" Luo Zu asked, as if possessed.

The past self shook its head: "No, I am the beginning."

Luo Zu nodded silently, and then gathered up the only version of himself who was close to this moment, which was the only one he had gathered from all his past selves over the past 70,000 years.

"So it turns out we're the Taiyi ones."

When he was almost alone in the past, he uttered a self-deprecating remark.

Luo Zuze replied, "Yes."

"Haha, this is my future, this is my last bit of energy."

What an old joke.

No, the era they lived in was also extremely ancient.

This original past self was eventually contained within the unique self by Luo Zu.

At the same time, he felt as if chains were binding him, confining his unique self to the river of time.

This bondage seemed strong and indestructible, but Luo Zu broke free of these "chains" by "turning over".

The river of time can no longer restrain his current size.

The power gained from understanding all the great Daos in the primordial world was bestowed upon the One Person, and all chains broke and turned to dust.

The ultimate sublimation has begun at this moment.

The power that transcends time has nothing to do with Taoist methods or the Great Dao, but is an extremely pure and indestructible spiritual light.

The immortal golden nature condensed at the Golden Immortal realm "sublimated" at this moment, transforming into indestructible spiritual light.

Thus, Luo Zu achieved one of the most important hidden conditions for reaching the Taiyi realm.

At this point, he could already be called "half-step Taiyi".

But even this half-step Taiyi is still Taiyi.

Moreover, Luo Zu is about to cross that boundary.

The Great Dao of Wuji and the Great Dao of the Five Tai Evolution gradually evolved into the opposite Taiji Yin-Yang nature. Subsequently, the 18,000 Great Daos that Luo Zu had already transformed into through his Primordial Spirit Brain Plus were gathered under the two opposite Great Daos, thus complementing each other and generating each other.

At this point, he had fully entered the Taiyi Dao Realm.

Rumble.

His primordial spirit perspective began to rise, and in a higher dimension, boundless purple lightning, like a spider web, enveloped Luo Zu's primordial spirit across space and time.

The Taiyi Calamity arrived as scheduled, attempting to prevent him from entering a higher dimension.

Keluozu swept past with a flick of his sleeve, and all the purple lightning dissipated.

Thus, the primordial spirit completely resided in the higher-dimensional spacetime, and the Taiyi Dao Realm was successfully achieved. (End of this chapter)
