It dripped for an entire day and night.

The stone actually cracked open with a crack, and then it turned into dust and disappeared without a trace. Shen Ping, who was inside the stone, suddenly opened his eyes. There was life in his pupils, and there was a trace of ancient aura.

He stood up and looked at the small sapling not far from the tree and smiled. Fate was unfathomable, even more difficult to understand. It was illusory and insubstantial, but it was everywhere. It was both reincarnation and life and death.

500 years of meditation, he finally comprehended a trace of fate from the cycle of the four seasons.

Without any reluctance to leave this place of Dao Comprehension, Shen Ping instantly disappeared and returned to his grotto-heaven. Then, he raised his hand and used the power of the world to simulate the Chaos Hole Space. The moment he comprehended a trace of the Dao of Fate, he understood how the Chaos Hole Space could balance the power of the other Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

With the power of fate as the guide, his finger quickly outlined the seven basic Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Then, with the five elements as the framework, he outlined the Yin Yang and Reincarnation on the foundation of the Great Dao. The great dao of heaven and earth that was originally difficult to balance actually perfectly fused together at this moment. Even though it wasn’t a fusion, it was even more perfect than the layered state he saw the guardian display on the dao platform.

Chaos Hole Space… This has probably already exceeded the power of the Chaos Hole Great Dao. Hmm, let’s call it the Chaotic Space!”

Although he had simulated a more powerful chaotic space, Shen Ping’s expression was calm. There was no trace of sadness or joy. 500 years of cultivation, even sitting there for too years, make his heart seem to contain all things like heaven and earth.

Of course, this was only a natural reaction from someone who had just comprehended the Dao of Fate.

When the simulated chaotic space had just evolved, the entire grotto-heaven actually transformed again. A large amount of world power surged in crazily. Mountains, lakes, plants, and the ground expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Shen Ping flicked his sleeve. Everyone who lived in the grotto-heaven was unaffected by this, while he quietly watched the grotto-heaven expand. Time passed slowly.

The Grotto – Heaven did not show any signs of stopping. After a full two months, the infusion of World Energy slowly ended. The Grotto-Heaven had expanded by hundreds of thousands of kilometers. The World Energy inside had automatically formed an internal circulation, similar to a true miniature world.

“Could this be the prototype of a small world formed by the chaotic space?” No matter how calm he was, Shen Ping could not help but reveal a look of surprise. He did not expect that the simulated chaotic space would evolve on its own. Although it did not look like a true small world, this was a grotto-heaven. The current range had already exceeded the grotto-heaven of other Heavenly Immortals. It was even a hundred times or hundreds of times theirs.

The moment the Grotto-Heaven stopped evolving, the power of laws of the grotto-heaven circulated, and a large amount of feedback surged into Shen Ping’s sea of consciousness. Information filled with various Heaven and Earth Great Dao swept out like a vast sea.

He immediately closed his eyes to digest and absorb.

In the blink of an eye, 50 years passed. He had finally digested all the information. He had already reached nearly 70% comprehension of the five elements, Yin Yang, and Reincarnation. If the news spread to the Immortal Dao territory, the myriad races would probably be shocked again. Even Venerable Sovereigns would be extremely surprised.

70% of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao was a level that only an outstanding Immortal Venerable could reach. Now, Shen Ping, a Tribulation Transcendence cultivator who had yet to ascend, had actually reached it.

He left the grotto-heaven. Just as he appeared in the world, a majestic will descended. Although this will was very vast and could easily crush Shen Ping, it did not have any malice. It was as if it was unconscious and followed the rules of the world.

Shen Ping immediately understood that after the grotto-heaven underwent another transformation, he had already broken through the shackles of the Heavenly Immortal Realm and reached the legendary Golden Immortal Realm. At this level, there were two choices. The first was to transform into the world and fuse with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth to become the Heavenly Dao. The second was to leave this world. After all, the strength of a Golden Immortal was too strong. He could casually destroy all living beings. If he did not become the Heavenly Dao and was restricted by the rules, the safety of all living beings in the world would be in his hands.

Needless to say, this was definitely set up by the Realm Sea Peak expert who established this world back then.

“I will leave this world.” Shen Ping transmitted his thoughts. Soon, the majestic and vast will disappeared. “Only a hundred years?” He thought to himself.

Originally, he had comprehended the power of fate and simulated a stronger Chaotic Space. In the end, he accidentally broke through to the Golden Immortal realm. This was something he did not expect. His plan was to wait until his master, Lian Xuejin, Yin Ting, and the others descended to this world, helping them become Heavenly Immortals before leaving. Unexpectedly, his plan could not keep up with the changes.

However, too years was enough for him to make some follow-up arrangements. With a thought, Shen Ping flashed to Xi Lengyan and Yin Shu’s side.

“Husband, you’re finally done with your seclusion.”

Both women were overjoyed.

“Yes, I won’t go into seclusion like this again.”

As he spoke, he told them about his breakthrough to the Golden Immortal Realm. The two women fell silent, too years, only 100 years of interaction. This immediately made the joy on their faces disappear.

Don’t worry, I’ll find a way to leave a clone in the grotto-heaven.” Shen Ping said. He had the Soul Parasite talent, and his Nether Fiend clones were still around. Furthermore, he had yet to reach the Golden Immortal realm. He could completely stay. Therefore, he only needed to create another clone and stay in the grotto-heaven to accompany them.

Only then did the two women’s worries turn into joy. Even though it was only a clone, it was still better than completely leaving.

“By the way, Darling, while you were in seclusion, the world had been unified and a new dynasty was established. However, a demonic creature with monstrous demonic flames appeared in the north. Even Earth Immortals were not its match and were devoured. This demonic creature wreaked havoc everywhere and harmed the common people. Everyone in the various Daoist sects was in danger. No one dared to kill it.”

Xi Lengyan briefly explained what had happened in the world.

Shen Ping pinched his fingers and comprehended the power of fate. He had broken through to the Golden Immortal realm, so he could deduce almost everything in an instant. With this calculation, he immediately knew that the cause and effect behind the demonic creature was actually pushed by Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing of Tianshan.

He directly arrived at Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing’s grotto-heaven.

Xue Jing was sitting in the pavilion and drinking fragrant tea. When he saw Shen Ping appear, Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing was not surprised at all. He said leisurely, “Fate makes fools of people. I didn’t expect you to easily obtain the supreme Golden Immortal I’ve been searching for.”

As a Heavenly Immortal with a great inheritance, he originally planned to use the demonic creatures to snatch the luck of the dragon vein in the world. Then, he would kill the demonic creatures and intercept the merit of the world to transform the grotto-heaven in one go. Who would have thought that someone would be faster than him?

Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing really wanted to ask how Shen Ping had done it, but he swallowed his words. All of this was no longer important to him. After all, only one Golden Immortal could be allowed in the entire world. Once one appeared, the other Heavenly Immortals would not have a chance. All that was left was to slowly wait for the grotto-heaven to wither.

Shen Ping sat opposite Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing. “A Heavenly Immortal has a long lifespan. No one in the world can threaten a Heavenly Immortal. You can be carefree. Why do you have to fight for the position of a Golden Immortal? Becoming a Golden Immortal might not be as you imagine. Instead, you will lose your freedom.”

Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing shookhis head. “I’m different from you. You’ve only experienced how many years since you started cultivating, and I can’t even remember how long I’ve lived. Other than being a Golden Immortal, I don’t have any other pursuits. If I don’t even fight for this, what’s the point of living?”

Shen Ping was stunned. Then he went silent.

That’s right. Having lived for too long without any goals or meaning to exist, then living was equivalent to death. To Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing, there was no need to choose. Caring about the world? Who would care about the world at the level of a Heavenly Immortal? If one batch was gone, another would grow. At last he left. He did not attack Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing because he could tell that he was already determined to die.

Sure enough, only half a year later, Tianshan’s Grotto-Heaven collapsed. Huge amounts of vitality scattered outwards, making heaven and earth’s vitality twenty percent richer. Meanwhile, no matter where the world was, it was raining, as if heaven and earth were crying.
