After Becoming an Immortal, It Makes Sense to Have a Universal Treasure Pot

130: Finally breaking through the time and artistic conception of the worldIn the blink of an eye, twenty years passed.

Outside the streets of An Sui Small Pavilion, batches of shops changed one after another, and faces changed one after another.

Xu Qi’an’s hair was already streaked with white, and beside him was Ning Sui.

Ning Sui’s face was marked with quite a few wrinkles, but she still wore a white robe and retained her graceful bearing.

”Master, there’s a funeral over there,” Ning Sui said softly.

Xu Qi’an followed Ning Sui’s gaze. It was a steamed bun shop, where he used to buy a tray of steamed buns every day.

The original steamed bun shop owner was a middle-aged woman around forty, but now it was a middle-aged man around forty.

He wore white mourning clothes, and a sign hung beside him.

”My mother has passed away. I implore kind-hearted people to help fulfill my filial piety.”

Ning Sui helped Xu Qi’an walk over.

As soon as the middle-aged man saw Master Lu approaching, he immediately wailed, ”Greetings, Master Lu. My mother fell gravely ill and passed away a few days ago. I have taken over her business.”

”Unfortunately, I am useless. My steamed bun making skill is far inferior to my mother’s.”

”Master Lu, please see if I can give you the land deed again in exchange for some silver to bury my mother.”

The middle-aged man in white clothes immediately knelt on the ground, crying.

Xu Qi’an sighed and then called out.

”Little Sui’er, take out some silver.”

Ning Sui nodded slightly and then took out somebroken silver from her purse.

”Thank you, Master Lu, thank you, Master Lu.”

Xu Qi’an glanced at him, then took Ning Sui and left.

The matter of the steamed bun shop was just one instance.

Living to this age, one is inevitably afflicted by illness.

Xu Qi’an looked at the jewelry shop in the distance; the owner there had also changed.

He then looked at the old man selling candied haws ahead, who had been replaced by a young person.

Further ahead, the entrance to a calligraphy Master’s house was deserted, no longer surrounded by onlookers applauding as it was in the past.

”Sister Sui, Master Lu, I finally found you!”

Just as Xu Qi’an and Ning Sui were walking on the street, a familiar voice came.

Ning Sui turned around and saw a middle-aged woman with a face full of wrinkles, and was immediately surprised.

”Sister Xu!”

Xu Liunian cried, ”My father has passed away. I have come to invite you to attend the funeral.”

”Hmm?!”

Xu Qi’an turned around and saw Xu Liunian’s red, tearful eyes.

”Xu Pang is dead?”

”That’s right, he must be well into his sixties.”

Immediately, Xu Liunian led Xu Qi’an and Ning Sui to the Xu residence.

Today, the Xu residence was draped in white silk, and the entire family of the Xu residence was crying continuously in the mourning hall.

Xu Qi’an took Ning Sui forward and offered a stick of incense for Xu Pang.

Xu Liunian cried, ”Master Lu, before my father died, he said his biggest regret in this life was being too busy with work and not being able to play another game of chess with you.”

Xu Qi’an was slightly taken aback.

Then, with a silent expression, he took Ning Sui and walked down.

Seeing Xu Qi’an’s silent expression at this moment, Ning Sui was also slightly affected. She softly asked.

”Master, are you concerned about the death of Xu Master?”

”Then why not...”

Xu Qi’an shook his head, took Ning Sui back to the street, and said with emotion.

”Perhaps.”

”Birth, aging, sickness, and death are just normal in life.”

”No matter how glorious one was back then, under the power of these ruthless years, one will eventually die and turn into dust!”

Suddenly, Xu Qi’an felt a sensation welling up in his heart.

”This is the power of years...”

”Time is like water, time flies like a shuttle, once gone, it never returns.”

”People go from infancy, to childhood, to youth, to middle age, and finally to old age.”

”Years have accompanied us...”

”Years have passed, people have changed, years are gone, and people are gone...”

Xu Qi’an suddenly felt as if the Time Domain in his heart had broken through, yet there was still a trace of confusion he had not fully grasped.

He sighed heavily.

Ning Sui, however, put a layer of clothes on him at this moment.

”Master, your hair is white, and the weather is cold. Remember to wear more clothes.”

Xu Qi’an smiled helplessly.

”Little Sui’er, you really are as always!”

Ning Sui’s face had wrinkles one after another, but it did not hinder the smile at the corner of her mouth: ”Master, what if I am still like this hundreds of years from now!”

”Would you care then!”

Xu Qi’an was slightly taken aback. He turned to look at Ning Sui and did not speak.

Perhaps he didn’t know either.

”Years are ruthless; even cultivators will eventually have a day when their Lifespan runs out.”

”Is this the Mortal World Barrier of the Time Domain? Is this to let me see the power of years?”

”Time contains the power of years. This power of years can both restore vitality to a person and cause them to lose vitality.”

”And these years even contain life and death!”

”Life and death?”

”Time Domain Mortal World Barrier, years and life and death.”

”So that’s it!”

”So that’s it!”

Xu Qi’an’s eyes had never been so clear. He immediately burst into laughter: ”Sui’er, I’ve comprehended!”

”I finally comprehended!”

Ning Sui was slightly taken aback, her face full of confusion: ”Master, what did you comprehend?”

Xu Qi’an smiled as he looked at Ning Sui, then extended his right hand, directly took her hand, and said softly.

”Come with me!”

”Where are we going?”

”To see all the great rivers and mountains!”

It was the first time Ning Sui had seen Xu Qi’an so happy, and her mood was also infected by it.

Xu Qi’an took Ning Sui to He’an City, a small Mortal city in Qinghe Country.

They stood on a rooftop, looking into the distance.

Niu Li and his wife lay on soft chairs, their faces weathered, their hair white, and the aura of death permeating their bodies. This was death.

And beside them, their son Niu Niu had already passed the imperial examination in Qinghe Country and become a county magistrate in He’an City.

Below him were many children and grandchildren. This was life.

This process was years, and the result was life and death.

And the power of years gave meaning to life and death.

”Niu Niu, for our family to produce a county magistrate like you, we really have to thank someone!” Niu Li lay on the chair, a look of reminiscence on his face.

Niu Niu looked at the scriptures and smiled, ”Dad, you say that every day; my ears are going to get calluses!”

”I know, I will definitely remember Uncle Lu’s kindness, remember his kindness for a lifetime. Without him, you wouldn’t have come to He’an City, and I wouldn’t have been able to afford private tutoring!”

”Without Uncle Lu’s care that day, where would we be today?”

”Don’t worry, I will definitely pass down the story of this great benefactor of our Niu family, so that our Niu family will remember him for a lifetime!”

”You child, it’s good that you remember!”

”Your dad, ah, I now have only one wish, to see your Uncle Lu before I die, and let him know how I didn’t disappoint him!”

Niu Li lay on the soft chair, his thoughts drifting back to the days thirty years ago.

Xu Qi’an saw this scene and smiled slightly.

”Let’s go.”

Although Ning Sui didn’t know the relationship between this family and Xu Qi’an, she didn’t ask further. She immediately nodded.

Xu Qi’an held Ning Sui’s hand and walked through many third-level Cultivation Countries.

He met Li Miaozhen from Qinghe Country. She had now reached the Peak of Foundation Establishment cultivation, and her demeanor was more mature than before.

He held Ning Sui’s hand and walked past homes with small bridges and flowing water, walked past towering and steep mountains, walked past vast rivers, walked past deserts filled with yellow sand, walked past so, so much...

Then, the two of them returned to An Sui Small Pavilion.

”So this is the Mortal World Barrier of the Time Domain, the Mortal World Barrier that contains the power of years and the power of life and death!”

In the quiet room, Xu Qi’an’s eyes were bright, and his heart was clear.

The Time Domain within him had already reached Great Completion at this moment, and was even continuously advancing towards the path of Perfection.

Suddenly, Xu Qi’an’s cultivation broke through the Bottleneck and reached the Late Stage of Deity Transformation.

Honing his sword for decades, he finally saw clearly the path of the Mortal World.

From then on, Xu Qi’an’s Domain cultivation was finally unimpeded!

Not only that, but at the same time as his Domain Breakthrough, Xu Qi’an’s Divine Soul also broke through the Bottleneck at this moment, cultivated to the thirteenth layer, and reached the Void Refining stage!
