Chapter 1 In the Starry Sky Ancient Road

Within the Starry Sky Ancient Road.

Lu Changsheng, Shan Ting, and the Crow Daoist walked side by side.

However, the Crow Daoist was very calm. He was silent, his eyes still dull and frightening.

A person, an elephant, and a bird together created a strange and indescribable sense of humor.

"Crow Daoist, how did you end up here?"

Shan Ting asked curiously.

"Walking the road she never walked."

The Crow Daoist spoke slowly, like a person whose heart was dead.

"Are you going to the Immortal World? Want to come with us?"

Shan Ting continued to ask. His purpose was simple. Although the Crow Daoist was a bit silly, his Immortal King-level combat power was undeniable. Having someone so strong by their side would be a form of insurance.

Just like before, when a Starry Sky Behemoth appeared, the Crow Daoist dealt with it with a wave of his hand. It was simply amazing.

"No." The Crow Daoist refused directly.

At the same time, he stopped, gazing at a purple galaxy, his silly gaze causing the galaxy to tremble.

"This?" Shan Ting looked at Lu Changsheng, not knowing what to say.

"We'll meet again if fate allows."

Lu Changsheng nodded, signaling Shan Ting not to force it. The Crow Daoist had his own ideas, and bringing him along wouldn't be good.

After reading so many novels, Lu Changsheng had summarized a set of laws. One of them was that the stronger the people around you, the more trouble they brought. Having an Immortal King by his side meant that the troubles he encountered in the future would definitely be at the Immortal King level.

So, instead of stubbornly insisting on the Crow Daoist joining them, it was better to honestly walk his own path.

In life, don't force things.

"Crow Daoist, you enjoy the scenery. We'll be leaving first."

Shan Ting nodded and bid farewell to the Crow Daoist.

The Crow Daoist didn't say a word, simply staring at that purple nebula.

The ancient road still had no end. No one knew where the end was, so they could only keep walking.

Just like that, Lu Changsheng didn't know how long he had been walking, but he had indeed seen a lot along the way.

The ever-changing universe, ancient battleships, broken weapons, and countless vast stars.

The vastness of the universe made one constantly feel their own insignificance.

For Lu Changsheng, this could be considered a tempering of his state of mind.

In the end, Lu Changsheng didn't know how long he had walked.

He stopped.

Looking out at the universe, he suddenly had a new understanding.

He was silent, simply gazing at the starry river. In an instant, a Starry Sky Ancient Chart appeared behind him.

The divine chart appeared, surrounding the stars and universe, encompassing everything, containing all sorts of incredible things, and also containing all sorts of great daos.

Lu Changsheng was comprehending the Dao.

Comprehending the Dao on the Starry Sky Ancient Road.

Observing the universe with a mortal body would naturally give people an indescribable sense of grandeur.

The insignificance of oneself and the grandeur of the universe created a huge impact. Whether it was sensory, visual, or even spiritual, the impact was unparalleled.

Observing the universe, Lu Changsheng recorded every scene in his heart, evolving a Starry Sky Chart.

He was comprehending the Dao, and his state of mind was constantly improving.

The more one knew their own insignificance, the clearer they could see their own shortcomings.

When facing the heavens and earth, there would be two results. One was to fall into confusion, shocked by the grandeur of the heavens and earth, causing their Dao heart to decline. The other was to temper their Dao heart with the heavens and earth, thereby transforming into an invincible Dao heart.

Clearly, Lu Changsheng was the latter.

He used his own heart to imprint the heart of heaven, using the grandeur of the heavens and earth to temper his dust-covered heart.

"Between heaven and earth, all things have spirit. The universe is vast and the great dao has spirit. Even the most insignificant dust must bloom with its own light, becoming the brightest star in the universe!"

Lu Changsheng woke up from his comprehension of the Dao. The Universe Star Chart behind him instantly formed and merged into his body.

At that moment, Lu Changsheng's temperament transformed once again.

His stunning face was intoxicating, and his unparalleled temperament further set him off as an immortal from the Nine Heavens.

Stars surrounded him, and the great dao permeated him. He was a rare man in the world, blessed by heaven. Even if the Heavenly Dao wanted to replicate him, it couldn't be done.

Shan Ting, once again, was mesmerized by Lu Changsheng's peerless appearance.

He couldn't imagine why there was such a man in this world. This kind of appearance, even the heavens couldn't bestow, right?

If I had even one ten-thousandth of it, I would be content.

This was Shan Ting's inner thought.

"Shan Ting! Let's go."

Just then, Lu Changsheng finished comprehending the Dao. He didn't think too much about it and continued forward. His Dao heart had been successfully tempered, and he had found his true self. Although it wasn't yet complete, it was already very good.

The ancient road was long and endless.

Time passed quickly, like a white horse flashing past, like a sudden moment, a change of dynasties, or like a Huangliang dream.

Unknowingly, the end of the Starry Sky Ancient Road appeared.

An ancient gate, a million feet tall, like the gate of heaven and earth, stood between heaven and earth.

"Changsheng Demon Lord, this is the entrance to the Immortal World."

Seeing this gate, Shan Ting's voice rang out, excited as he called out to Lu Changsheng.

"Shan Ting, after we get to the Immortal World, don't call me Changsheng Demon Lord, understand?"

Seeing the Immortal Gate, Lu Changsheng was also slightly excited. After all the hardships, they had finally arrived at the Immortal Gate. His mood naturally had some ups and downs, but he still instructed Shan Ting.

After all, he was the Demon Lord of the Demon World. Before, he had issued a decree that weakened the Immortal World's great fortune. If he arrived in the Immortal World and was discovered, wouldn't that be like throwing himself into a trap?

"Oh, oh, oh, then what should I call you? Changsheng Demon Lord."

Shan Ting wasn't stupid, he just didn't know what to call him.

"Just call me Brother Changsheng."

Lu Changsheng said. Brother sounded pretty good.

"Brother Changsheng? Okay, okay, I'll call you Brother Changsheng then."

Shan Ting nodded, then took out his notebook and began to write quickly.

"February 5th, I am walking with Changsheng Demon Lord on the Starry Sky Ancient Road. On the way, we encountered a Starry Sky Behemoth. I shattered the giant beast's claws with one punch, saving Changsheng Demon Lord. Then, Changsheng Demon Lord saw that my aptitude was good, and I had the qualifications of a Great Emperor, so he swore brotherhood with me!"

Shan Ting was writing the Shan Ting Chronicle very seriously.

Lu Changsheng had already arrived at the Immortal Gate.

The Immortal Gate was incomparably bright, and he couldn't see the situation outside, like a five-colored vortex, very mysterious.

"Changsheng Demon... Brother Changsheng, are we going in now?"

Shan Ting put the notebook away and then asked.

"Shan Ting, after we go in, is there a fixed point, or is it random?"

Lu Changsheng asked Shan Ting curiously.

"It's random. This Immortal Gate doesn't have a fixed place. Everything is random. But Brother Changsheng, we're going in at the same time, so we'll definitely be in the same place, but I don't know where that will be."

Shan Ting gave his answer.

Lu Changsheng frowned.

If they were lucky and appeared in some spiritual mountain, it wouldn't be a problem. But if they were unlucky, wouldn't that be troublesome?

"Brother Changsheng, don't worry. You're so lucky, you can't possibly be teleported into the Immortal World's forbidden area, right?"

Shan Ting said casually.

Lu Changsheng was stunned for a moment. Thinking about it carefully, that was true. He was so lucky, even if he encountered some danger, it wouldn't be too great, right?

"Let's go!"

After figuring this out, Lu Changsheng took a breath and then took a step forward, entering the Immortal Gate.

Shan Ting followed closely behind. After all, if they were delayed for a moment, the places they were teleported to might be completely different.

Just like that, one person and one beast stepped into the Immortal Gate.

The five-colored vortex swallowed them.

----

Immortal World.

This was a boundless world, more than ten thousand times better than the Demon World. Here, it was as if it were the center of the universe, the origin of all races.

Among the Six Realms, the Immortal World's status was extremely terrifying. Even the most prosperous Demon World was not even one-tenth of the Immortal World.

Now, it was even more so.

Moreover, after each era ended, the Immortal World would transform again.

Here, there were truly hidden dragons and crouching tigers, experts were as numerous as clouds, and geniuses were even more numerous than hairs.

And within the Immortal World, there were five Great Realms.

Eastern Immortal Realm, Southern Immortal Realm, Western Immortal Realm, Northern Immortal Realm, Central Immortal Realm.

Other places were described as Great Domains, but the Immortal World dared to use 'Realm' to describe an area, which showed how terrifying the Immortal World's foundation was.

The Heavenly Court stood in the Central Immortal Realm.

The Eastern Immortal Realm was vast and abundant, but the most famous thing about the Eastern Immortal Realm was not the Three Great Immortal Dynasties, but the 'Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain'.

The Immortal World's Supreme Forbidden Area, Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain.

What was a Supreme Forbidden Area? An area that even the God Race dared not enter was a Forbidden Area. Among these Forbidden Areas, it was rumored that there were Supreme Experts from the Ancient Era guarding them.

In the Immortal World, one era was equal to 1.08 million years.

And one epoch was equal to 18,000 eras.

The Six Realms had experienced five epochs: the Chaotic Epoch, the Mythical Epoch, the Supreme Epoch, the Ancient Epoch, and the Near Ancient Epoch.

Currently, it was the Near Ancient Epoch. The other five realms had more or less declined, but the Immortal World was still extremely prosperous.

This was also the fundamental reason why the God Race lived in the Immortal World.

And the 'Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain' had been appearing in the Eastern Immortal Realm since the Ancient Epoch, according to legend.

That was to say, the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain had existed for 10,800 epochs.

If a cultivator could live for one era, they could at least become an Immortal King expert.

10,800 epochs, what kind of existence would that be?

Even Immortal Emperors wouldn't be enough to look at, so the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain was a divine mountain in the hearts of countless experts in the Eastern Immortal Realm.

There, there were Supreme Opportunities, and there were also secrets from the Ancient Era, but the world did not dare to step into the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain.

Only because of the terribleness of the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain.

There were living taboos there. Whoever stepped into the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain would violate the taboos. Even the God Race would be killed without mercy.

The most famous event of the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain was that in the last era, thirty-six God Race experts felt that the taboos of the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain had passed away, and the seals had weakened a lot, so they could go in and explore.

Therefore, they entered to find treasures. However, after entering the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain, they disappeared. Later, a Supreme Power of the God Race was born and came to the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain, hoping that the master of the Divine Mountain would let go of the thirty-six people.

However, the taboo in the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain only threw out thirty-six corpses, leaving a sentence: Those who break into the Divine Mountain will be killed without mercy.

As a result, the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain once again revitalized its divine power, letting all the experts in the Immortal World understand a fact.

In this world, there were also existences that the God Race dared not provoke.

However, it was later rumored that the taboo existence in the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain also came from the God Race, but because of conflicting ideas, they eventually established a forbidden area.

Of course, in any case, the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain was of great significance to the Eastern Immortal Realm. Countless experts came here every year, but they did not go deep. At most, they only searched for treasures around the Divine Mountain at certain times.

It was true that there were many treasures around the Divine Mountain, which also became a characteristic of the Eastern Immortal Realm.

However, the cultivators in the Eastern Immortal Realm all understood that it was okay to walk around outside the Divine Mountain, but if they dared to step into it, it would be a great trouble.

And at this moment.

Outside the entire Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain, countless experts were gathered.

There were two reasons.

One was that a Qilin divine beast had run into the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain. The Crown Prince of the Sun and Moon Immortal Dynasty had directly declared that he wanted to capture the Qilin alive, willing to use a complete Immortal King-level immortal medicine as a bargaining chip.

A complete Immortal King-level immortal medicine could extend one's life for an era, offsetting the disasters of the era, which was of great significance. Therefore, all kinds of people appeared at the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain, each with their own ulterior motives. Some wanted to capture the Qilin to exchange for medicine, and some wanted to subdue the Qilin.

There were even some peerless geniuses who also desired to subdue the Qilin divine beast.

A Qilin! Even in the Immortal World, it was extremely difficult to encounter. If one obtained a Qilin mount or pet, it would be a huge improvement for themselves. Moreover, the Qilin race had an ancient inheritance, a supreme immortal technique, the Qilin Immortal Technique.

Involving the saying of luck and immortal fate, it naturally attracted countless experts.

But the real reason that attracted the gathering of peerless experts was that many cultivators saw a twelve-grade golden lotus, which was an Immortal Emperor medicine, condensed on the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain. After swallowing it, one could comprehend the Emperor Dao.

Now, countless experts in the entire Immortal World were boiling, at least the experts in the Eastern Immortal Realm all flocked to the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain.

An Immortal Emperor medicine was of too extraordinary significance.

It could allow Immortal Kings to comprehend the Immortal Emperor Dao.

Immortal King medicine could only allow Immortal Kings to extend their lives for one era, but Immortal Emperor medicine allowed people to comprehend the Immortal Emperor realm. Once they became an Immortal Emperor, they could live for hundreds of epochs, or even an epoch.

Of course, this was just a rumor, because no one knew how strong the Immortal Emperor realm was.

After all, even the Lord of the Heavenly Court was only at the Immortal King Completion.

And at this very moment.

Above the incomparably calm Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain, a crack appeared, and then a beam of light fell into the Divine Mountain.

This scene was seen by countless immortals.

But what was terrifying was not this.

Central Immortal Realm.

The dragons of merit, spiraling above the sky, moved.

One dragon of merit after another soared into the sky, and then all rushed towards the Heavenly Abyss Divine Mountain.

The Eastern Immortal Realm instantly boiled!
