Jiang Changsheng was even more curious about the current Immortal Dao. He had to understand how far ahead he was in the future.
He looked at the white-haired figure in the temple and asked again, “May I ask if no one in the Immortal Dao can reverse the situation? What about the Dao Ancestor?”
The white-haired figure trembled when he heard that. He slowly turned his head. His skin was like dried tree bark, and his eyes were bloodshot. His eyes were numb and lifeless, just like the other people he had encountered on the way.
“The Dao Ancestor? That’s only an illusory legend. If the Dao Ancestor really existed and was willing to care for the Immortal Dao, there would not be a dead end for the Immortal Dao. Billions of living beings in the world had been sacrificed and the heavens had rained blood for nine million years, but have you ever seen the Dao Ancestor appear?”
The white-haired figure slowly spoke, and his hoarse voice revealed strong unwillingness.
In the face of the other party’s gaze, Jiang Changsheng subconsciously thought that his future self was restrained and could not take care of the Immortal Dao.
He suddenly felt ashamed and did not know what to do.
At that very moment.
Cracks appeared on the stone statue in front of the white-haired figure, and the cracks expanded rapidly. In the blink of an eye, they covered the entire stone statue.
Jiang Changsheng looked over. That stone statue was not him, nor was it someone he knew.
Wait a minute!
Looking at his figure, he was somewhat familiar.
Jiang Changsheng suddenly remembered the mysterious figure he encountered when he went to the ancient Immortal Dao to move a piece of land.
That person allowed him to reverse the past and the future, but he also warned him not to go to the past again.
The other party seemed to be the Dao Ancestor of the ancient Immortal Dao.
It turned out that this was not the future of the current Immortal Dao, but the end of the ancient Immortal Dao.
After he figured that out, Jiang Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief. The ancient Immortal Dao no longer existed. Everything was fate. However, if this place belonged to the future of the Immortal Dao he belonged to, he would overthink it and might even backfire on himself.
The white-haired figure looked back at the cracked stone statue. He was indifferent and fell into silence.
The sandstorm was still blowing, but it could not hide the desolation of this world.
Jiang Changsheng stood there and observed for a while before he finally decided to continue on his journey. Since he was here, he would go and see what the ancient Immortal Dao was facing and why it had disappeared.
Bypassing the temple, the sand and stones on the ground became soft, but the wind also became stronger.
The wind here was bone-chilling. Even someone like Jiang Changsheng felt uncomfortable.
“What exactly is this place?”
Jiang Changsheng’s heart was filled with dread. He could sense that this was not a world of the Immortal Dao. There was a death qi between heaven and earth that could not be absorbed or mobilized. Instead, it would continuously devour one’s soul.
As the sandstorm got stronger and stronger, Jiang Changsheng could not see anything and his spiritual will could not spread out.
Being here, he was just like a mortal. Such a feeling was extremely uncomfortable for immortal cultivators. No wonder those mighty immortals were miserable.
What exactly was ahead…
Jiang Changsheng thought uneasily, but he did not stop. In any case, he descended here with his will. If he was in danger, his will would return.
“Halt!”
A shout came from behind him. Jiang Changsheng turned around and saw a figure walking over quickly.
It was a man dressed in cotton clothes. He wore a bamboo hat and carried three swords on his back. On his waist was a red rope and a gourd. His face was weathered, and one of his eyelids was sunken. It was obvious that the eye was missing.
Looking at this person’s attire, he did not look like a cultivator at all. He looked more like a wandering swordsman. However, Jiang Changsheng did not look down on him. For him to be able to come here, he must be a peerless expert.
The man in the bamboo hat came to Jiang Changsheng and said in a deep voice, “Are you trying to court death by charging forward like this?”
Jiang Changsheng asked, “If I don’t go forward, should I go back? This is a dead end for the Immortal Dao. If cultivators like us have come to this point, shouldn’t we be already prepared for what’s to come?”
The man in the bamboo hat was silent. The way he looked at Jiang Changsheng had changed. Even though he only had one eye, his gaze was still extremely oppressive.
This guy was definitely in the Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Realm. Moreover, he had not transcended the Zenith Heaven Realm. At the very least, he had reached the Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Realm that Jiang Changsheng was about to break through to.
Of course, in the ancient Immortal Dao, the division of the Zenith Heaven Realm was definitely different.
Jiang Changsheng followed suit and said, “I need to understand the dead end of the Immortal Dao, but along the way, everyone seemed to have given up. No one is willing to tell me. Are you willing?”
The man in the bamboo hat narrowed his eyes and asked, “How do you want to know? Don’t tell me you’re completely unaware of the dead end of the Immortal Dao?”
Jiang Changsheng answered, “Ever since I entered the Immortal Dao, I have been in seclusion in blessed lands. How could I have expected to hear of the shocking changes in the Immortal Dao the moment I came out?”
After he said that, he even revealed a depressed expression.
The man in the bamboo hat did not suspect him. After all, they were all immortal cultivators. What other motives could they have in the face of the calamity of the Immortal Dao?
“Everything began with that blood rain. I don’t know when it started, but a blood rain descended and continuously spread until it covered the entire Immortal Dao. After being tainted by the blood rain, the immortal cultivators became deranged. This blood rain also caused the Heavenly Dao and its luck to dissipate to the point it no longer existed. After that, all kinds of calamities followed..
The man in the bamboo hat said slowly. His expression was calm, but it was obvious that he could not restrain his emotions.
Jiang Changsheng silently noted down the keywords.
Blood rain!
If his Immortal Dao encountered a blood rain in the future, he had to be careful.
The man in the bamboo hat continued to narrate. It turned out that this world was formed by that blood rain that emitted endless death qi. It could destroy the body and soul of mortals and entangle immortal cultivators in bad luck. Even existences stronger than Zenith Heaven Immortals could not resist it.
Destroying this world might save the Immortal Dao!
With such a mentality, countless cultivators rushed forward one after another. How many Zenith Heaven Immortals had fallen here, and how many Immortal Saints had disappeared?
The term of the Dead End of the Immortal Dao was a vicious name made up of bones piled up by countless powerful immortals!
A perilous land that stood at the center of the Immortal Dao. Over the years, the Immortal Dao had been forcefully consumed to the extent it was about to perish. Jiang Changsheng frowned when he heard that.
“What’s hidden ahead? Are there demonized immortal cultivators?” Jiang Changsheng asked.
The man in the bamboo hat shook his head and said, “No one knows. I’m not trying to stop you from contributing to the Immortal Dao. I just hope that you won’t die meaninglessly. We can join hands and wait. Even though the Immortal Dao has entered a calamity, there’s no lack of determined immortal cultivators.”
Jiang Changsheng asked, “Wait, but for how long, and how many people are we waiting for?”
The man in the bamboo hat was silent.
That’s right.
How many people did they have to wait for?
If they waited any longer, when would it be comparable to the first attack launched by the Immortal Dao?
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Then let me take a look for you.”
With that said, he turned around and stepped forward without any hesitation.
Since he understood the cause of the Immortal Dao’s ruin, there was no need for him to wait any longer. In any case, he did not belong to this era.
The man in the bamboo hat looked at his back and could not help but ask, “May I ask for your name?”
Jiang Changsheng stopped and said, “My name is Changsheng. What about you?”
“I am Hong Ji.”
After he heard the other party’s name, Jiang Changsheng immediately stepped forward and soon disappeared into the sandstorm.
Hong Ji sighed and muttered to himself, “What’s the point of taking a look for me? Perhaps this is the way back to the Immortal Dao. At the very least, this has proved his determination to the Great Dao.”
After saying that, he sat down on the ground. The sandstorm could not hide his back.
On the other side.
Jiang Changsheng’s footsteps were extremely fast. He could not wait to end this transmigration. After all, he did not belong to the past.
As he sped along, he encountered many more figures. Just like before, all of them were waiting for their own demise. He did not comfort them, nor did he stop.
After passing through an area with strong winds, the sandstorm began to weaken.
When he broke out of the sandstorm, he finally stopped. There was a cliff in front of him, and both ends were submerged in the sandstorm. The end could not be seen. The cliff was ten thousand miles wide, and it was pitch-black below. Opposite the cliff was a dark land with rolling dark clouds.
The reason why he stopped was because he saw a figure floating above the abyss.
It was a man in a black Daoist robe with a horsetail whisk in his hand. His hair was pale, and a huge black lotus flower was blooming behind him.
Jiang Changsheng wanted to see the other party’s face, but his gaze and spiritual will became blurry as soon as they approached the other party’s face. “You want to save the Immortal Dao with your meager strength?”
An unfamiliar voice sounded, the other party’s tone was filled with contempt.
When Jiang Changsheng heard this, he felt a familiar dizziness. He realized that he was about to leave.
However, he thought of Hong Ji and decided to leave something behind.
He could not save the Immortal Dao, but he could at least give people who he had met a glimmer of hope.
Jiang Changsheng raised his right hand and pointed his index finger at the black-robed man. He said expressionlessly, “There are some things that you have to do even if you know you can’t do it!”
Boom!
The Dao Slaying Finger burst forth with a resplendent golden light. When this force shot out, everything in front of Jiang Changsheng disappeared. An intense dizziness came, causing his will to fall into chaos.
Thunder rumbled in his ears and Jiang Changsheng woke up. He suddenly opened his eyes.
He was still transcending the tribulation, and his clone stood by his side. There were no enemies approaching from all directions.
Jiang Changsheng leaned against the Divine Throne of the Great Dao Origin, his mind was still thinking about the ancient Immortal Dao.
Even though he had some thoughts before he left, he did not expect that he would be able to shoot out a Dao Slaying Finger. It seemed like his will was attached to an immortal cultivator of similar strength in the ancient Immortal wav.
His consciousness had returned, which meant that the tribulation was about to end. After surviving the next lightning bolt, he would reach the Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Realm he wanted!
As for those Immortal Emperors who were watching, they did not notice that the Dao Ancestor’s consciousness had left for a while. In fact, his consciousness had only transmigrated for a few breaths.
The berserk lightning prison descended, causing Jiang Changsheng’s incense points to decrease extremely quickly.
In less than an hour, Jiang Changsheng’s remaining incense points were depleted and he had no choice but to personally transcend the tribulation.
His magic power formed a barrier, but it was easily dispersed by the lightning. Even his Primordial Chaos Indestructible Golden Body Technique was struck by the lightning and felt a stabbing pain all over his body. Even his soul felt as if it was about to shatter.
Jiang Changsheng gritted his teeth and persevered. He began to circulate the mental cultivation method of the Primordial Chaos Indestructible Golden Body
Technique, wanting to use the lightning to temper his body.
He did not panic because he felt that the lightning was about to weaken.
In fact, just as he had guessed, the heavenly tribulation soon began to weaken. His Zenith Heaven Dao Fruit evolved again and new magic power surged out to replace his old magic power.
At that moment, Jiang Changsheng suddenly caught an aura approaching at high speed..
