Eternal Tale

The sky was filled with radiant clouds, lasting endlessly, and the phenomenon was so brilliant.

This extraordinary sight continued to accompany Black Bull’s transformation, not disappearing in a few days or even months.

It lasted for a full six months!

Only after this did the radiant clouds in the sky gradually fade away, accompanied by the strange qi of the Five Elements, nourishing this world.

Crack...

A sound of breaking echoed softly in the sea, yet it resonated across thousands of miles of ocean, with every drop of seawater vibrating in harmony with the cracking sound.

Thousands of miles away.

Three Divine Transformation Flood Dragons of the Eight Veins flew across the sky, their eyes filled with astonishment. Spies from the sea reported that a world-shaking phenomenon had emerged from this remote area.

”How could such a phenomenon appear in that place?”

”Perhaps the Void Land has drawn something into the Mengmu Sea Region again.””A brief investigation will suffice, don’t delve too deeply.”

Three deep voices echoed in the sky, their bodies immense, over three hundred feet long.

Their entire bodies were dark green, every inch of skin covered with scales, shimmering with a green light, their eyes sharp and filled with a fierce aura.

Suddenly, a sudden change occurred!

The space seemed to freeze, turning snow-white, even the dust in the air could be seen slowly drifting, and the spiritual qi... was instantly emptied!

A vast and overwhelming pressure descended in an instant, making the entire world feel oppressive and silent.

The bodies of the three Flood Dragons of the Eight Veins tensed at this moment, their pupils shrinking to a needle’s point, as if a thick shadow suddenly appeared in their hearts, impossible to cut through with a knife.

Their hearts beat rapidly, panic washing over them like ice water, their blood and divine sense rapidly cooling, leaving them with a sense of paralysis.

Their bodies began to freeze, like withered branches swaying in the autumn wind, their only clear thought telling them to flee!

Yet their trembling massive bodies seemed rooted in the air, unable to move a step, plunging the entire dragon into endless despair.

Because... a hand seemed to gently press against their heads.

In a fleeting glance, there was a figure dressed in white, embroidered with ink-colored landscapes, yet it seemed as if real mountains and rivers were sealed within the white robe.

In white robes, they were terrified as if they had seen a true world!

The three Flood Dragons of the Eight Veins were as silent as cicadas in winter, speechless with fear.

He walked past them with an air of ease, moving faster than the Flood Dragons’ understanding could comprehend, already reaching the center of their bodies.

The figure in white stood calmly in the air, a slight curve at the corner of his mouth: ”Three young friends, ahead lies my domain, could you give me some face?”

As his words fell, it was as if heavenly music filled their ears, the calm words carrying an undeniable authority, both a question and a command.

Boom! Boom!

The sea surface erupted in a monstrous wave, a massive chasm appearing on the sea surface, emitting a piercing wail, like a peerless arrow shooting through from the other side.

Their vital energy was extinguished, and even the surrounding seawater dared not flow into this great chasm.

The path of this chasm was clearly the route the white-robed figure had just flown through, even the world’s energy seemed to lag behind his steps!

The three Flood Dragons of the Eight Veins were so terrified by this calm yet terrifying might that they seemed to lose their souls... their hair stood on end, hearts pounding, still not fully reacting, pupils still trembling violently, their vital energy extinguished...

Their hearts felt as if gripped by a giant hand, their massive bodies convulsing, as if struck by thunder.

”Se... Se... Senior...”

”Forgive us... we were just passing by, with no intention of offense.”

”Heh... heh, we’ll leave... we’ll escape... no, we’ll go.”

They did not turn around, just stared blankly ahead, standing dazed in the air, their lips trembling as they spoke.

”That’s good, thank you.”

The white-robed figure smiled kindly, his aura dissipating like smoke, vanishing from the scene, and the frozen atmosphere instantly relaxed.

The three Flood Dragons of the Eight Veins breathed a sigh of relief, gulping down the rushing spiritual qi, the absolute suffocation they had just experienced was something they never wanted to endure again in their lives.

”Go!!”

”Quickly, we saw nothing today!”

”Escape!”

The three dragons made a dull thudding sound as if a giant hammer struck the ground, frantically fleeing backward, each faster than the last, determined not to be the last!

The entire sea surface returned to its usual calm.

On a reef dozens of meters high, Chen Xun sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, a divine light of the Five Elements flew from the distant sky, merging into his body.

His entire aura was ethereal and elusive, as if merging with the Five Elements of heaven and earth, changing with them, able to utilize a trace of the power of the Five Elements’ laws.

His cultivation and primordial spirit had fully advanced to the Void Refinement phase!

Chen Xun slowly opened his eyes, his gaze vast and boundless, the qi of the Five Elements seemed to flow within them.

It was as if these were no longer the eyes of a living being, devoid of any emotion or brilliance.

The world around him appeared different in his eyes, no longer with the ocean’s rise and fall, no clouds drifting, no two bright suns in the sky, no overwhelming spiritual qi filling the world.

There were only veins and outlines, the flow of seawater, the gathering and dispersing of clouds, the pure yang energy of the bright sun...

The entire world had changed, becoming simple, wondrous, deep, and unfathomable.

Veins of energy vibrated in all directions, filling them with vitality, imbuing them with the colors of life.

”Break.”

Chen Xun extended a finger, pointing at the sea surface.

The seawater that had been crashing against the reef suddenly halted, no longer lively, becoming lifeless, gradually sinking into the depths of the sea.

Then it was covered by the waves behind, continuing to crash against the reef, wave after wave, as if everything was returning to normal.

Chen Xun’s gaze slightly focused, his black hair gently dancing behind him, the divine light of the Five Elements in his pupils gradually fading, leaving only those deep black eyes, but now he seemed more like a real person.

”Divine Transformation can invoke the world’s energy to enhance mana, as long as the energy is inexhaustible, the mana enhanced by spiritual power is also inexhaustible, until the spiritual power within is depleted.”

Chen Xun raised his right hand, the divine light of the Five Elements coiling around his fingertips, ”In the Void Refinement phase, one can clearly perceive the veins of the world’s energy, no longer just invoking, but controlling, able to break seas and move mountains.”

”Even Divine Transformation cultivators have no qualification to invoke the world’s energy before him, relying only on their spiritual power or physical body to resist, the gap is much greater than between the Elemental Infant phase and the Divine Transformation phase.”

”But why is it that I am not just controlling, but beyond control, able to extinguish energy, making it impossible for you to control, heh, even a clever housewife cannot cook without rice.”

A playful smile suddenly appeared on Chen Xun’s lips, ”With both spiritual pressure and the power to extinguish energy, I really want to see Void Refinement cultivators reduced to mortals before me.”

As he finished speaking, a wisp of death light appeared at his fingertips.

Upon advancing, death energy had already begun to fully integrate into his primordial spirit, no longer needing a magical artifact to unleash death energy.

He speculated in his heart that the power to extinguish energy might be related to death energy.

But during the Divine Transformation phase, he did not have such great ability to control energy, now advancing to the Void Refinement phase, it was a natural progression, each step taken very steadily, never overreaching.

The power of Destruction merged into his divine sense, death energy into his body, the immortal path he now cultivated was entirely a humanoid monster.

However, death energy still required his life-bound magical treasure to transmit, without external help.

Unlike the power of Destruction, there were countless Destruction Stones unused, which could be aided by external objects.

Now his primordial spirit had completely mutated, the qi of the Five Elements in the world was inexhaustible, a single primordial spirit could merge with death energy at any time, transforming into a demonic shadow of the Five Elements death energy.

After advancing to Void Refinement, using this move had no backlash, no restrictions, no longer losing vitality, though he was immortal, the feeling of losing life force was unpleasant.

He also cherished his longevity, and unless absolutely necessary, he would never use anything that consumed life.

Over time, it would certainly affect his state of mind, losing reverence for life, becoming indifferent to all things, which was a great taboo for immortality.
