In outer space, steel spaceships, like dark clouds, blotted out the sun. Ninety percent of the Transcendent Immortals and gods who had not yet left had arrived and were all waiting; this should be their last chance.

There were quite a few people on Wang Xuan's spaceship. Chen Yongjie decided to leave, and Qing Mu followed. Naturally, Liu Huaian and Old Zhong were also there, along with Lele, who was accompanied by several robots.

Lele has also grown old, over a hundred years old. Fortunately, the Mechanical Taoist taught her cultivation, and she is considered a very talented person.

Huang Ming, Kong Yun, Qi Liandao, Gu Mingxi and others came, but the two people in wheelchairs attracted the most attention.

Zhong Qing and her brother Zhong Cheng survived a year, but their physical condition deteriorated, and they found it difficult to stand for long periods of time.

Old Zhong personally watched over the brother and sister who were sitting in wheelchairs. When the Transcendent Immortals visited and the gods came to inquire about the news, they were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene.

"Everyone, even a pair of mortals in wheelchairs have such strong wills, yearning to become immortals and fight for a bright future. You and I were once among the Transcendent Immortals, what is there to hesitate about? We really shouldn't have given up back then, retreating is shameful!" Zhou Yaosheng sighed.

Back then, he was fully prepared to travel across the universe, but at the last moment he hesitated and ultimately did not take that step.

Hearing him say that, Zhong Cheng immediately wanted to stand up, because this was a big mouth, and telling others about him would become an indelible black history.

"Wait a minute! Zhou Yaosheng, what do you mean by 'fighting for immortality while in a wheelchair'? Please don't explain it like that!"

Li Tianxian also entered the spaceship for a visit. Another black mouth appeared and sighed, "It's truly inspiring. If I had your drive and courage back then, I wouldn't be regretting it today!"

Zhong Cheng remained silent. This was not the same thing at all. He was originally destined to live for less than a year or two, and now he was sitting in a wheelchair seeking a turning point, unlike the Transcendent Immortals present.

"Gentlemen, that's enough," Wang Xuan said.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, will it really come from ancient times to the present? But why hasn't it appeared yet? Transcendent Immortals and gods, please ask us." Zhou Yaosheng said solemnly.

He appeared relaxed at first, but in reality he was extremely nervous. If he missed the opportunity, he would truly be gone for good decades later.

"I don't know either," Wang Xuan shook his head.

On another spaceship from New Star sat Wang Hai, Xiushan, Cao Qingyu, and others. They had fought alongside Wang Xuan against demons on New Star and were among the more well-known rising stars in the Great Curtain. They greeted Wang Xuan and expressed their gratitude.

Because Wang Xuan had specifically contacted them, informing them that there was a turning point today, and those below the Transcendent Immortals might also be able to embark on their journey.

Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, we still haven't seen the ancient and modern times break through the Great Universe and open the gates of heaven.

Everyone fell silent. They didn't think Wang Xuan had lied to them; there was no need for it. They all believed that something might have happened to Gu Jin in the Supernatural Central Great World, which was why he failed to keep his promise.

After their disappointment, everyone fell silent, their hearts heavy. Not being able to leave meant they would die of old age in the age of mythical oblivion, and their time was not far off.

In the cold depths of the universe, specks of light appear, markings of the past and present, approaching from afar, like a creature gracefully taking steps, leaving no trace, only footprints.

"My original self said that if the situation changes and it is unable to leave and arrive in time, then we will have to wait until next year. Everyone, please disperse."

Upon hearing this, everyone sighed, but still left in an orderly fashion. If it couldn't be done this year, they would wait until next year.

Old Zhong quickly helped his two descendants loosen their muscles and bones. After waiting for so long, sitting here listlessly, he was afraid that Zhong Qing and Zhong Cheng's bodies couldn't take it.

Zhong Cheng was exhausted, but said, "Great-Grandpa, it's alright, don't worry. I won't be discouraged, I'll keep going. I'll come again next year even if I'm lying in bed!"

Zhong Qing said, "Great-Grandpa, I can still hold on. My family has a longevity trait, just like yours. I will try my best to wait another year!"

The words spoken by the siblings left Wang Xuan speechless and mesmerized.

Then, he injected fewer and fewer Supernatural Factor into the bodies of the brother and sister.

Time flies like water, and 103 years have passed since the Supernatural Finale. In just two months, it will be time to meet the day we agreed upon with the past and present.

During this period, Wang Xuan visited the health of some of his old friends several times, and Zhong Qing and Zhong Cheng were undoubtedly the weakest.

"Will Gu Jin definitely be able to come next time? I don't think so." At the Zh Xian Tea House, some people gathered to discuss the opening of the Heavenly Gate.

This teahouse has become a century-old brand with a great reputation. People at all its branches need to make reservations every day, let alone the original century-old store.

Huang Ming, Kong Yun, Zhou Qinghuang, and others also looked old, with strands of white hair. They were not Ascension to Immortality who ascended to heaven back then; they were all in the Great Realm Carefree Journey.

Therefore, after the myth collapsed, their remaining lifespan in this era was not much longer than that of Old Zhong, Chen Yongjie, and others, and was even similar.

"If the ancient and modern worlds can be destroyed, then the Supernatural Central Great World is too terrifying. We wouldn't even be cannon fodder if we went there," Qi Liandao sighed.

Mo Si was also there, but he was in very poor condition. Yuan Ben was the most talented among these people, but he was strong-willed and refused to accept the demise of the myth. He used various methods to stimulate his body and mind to practice, which greatly damaged his vitality and turned his hair white.

In the past, Wang Xuan killed Mu Qing, who wielded the Life Pool. Mu Qing was considered one of the predecessors of the Demonic Path. Meanwhile, Yan Mingcheng and Bai Jingshu killed the Demon Emperor. For a while, Mo Si felt awkward and did not come to the teahouse for a long time.

However, he later came to understand and gradually let go. In this era, everyone is struggling to cross over. The ancestors of the demonic path went to kill others, but were killed in return. Who can they blame?

In those extraordinary times, could he truly sever ties with his friends like Wang Xuan for the sake of the predecessors of the demonic path? In the end, he let go of that part of his past.

Some people have put it down, but others have picked it up again.

The Ghost Monk walked out of Pufa Temple. Years ago, he said he had let go and did not walk with the past and present. Today, he said he had "picked up" again and wanted to see those old friends he had not seen for a hundred years.

"I hope I can make a name for myself in the Supernatural Central World!"

Two months later, a large number of warships reappeared in outer space of Old Earth. Transcendent Immortals and gods came again, full of hope.

It has to be said that the Zhong family's constitution seems to be quite special. Old Zhong almost lost all his hair back then, but he still managed to fight his way into a second life.

Last year, Zhong Qing and her brother Zhong Cheng were already very weak, but they came again this year, still in wheelchairs, which really attracted attention. Transcendent Immortals and gods paid attention to them after they learned about it.

However, people were disappointed again that year, and could even be said to have despaired.

Transcendent Immortals realized that something had most likely happened to Gu Jin. After a century of war, it was likely defeated and killed and removed from the list in the Supernatural Central Great World.

"Darkness Heart, being on the kill list, is a seal of the old era. Does it have some Previous Incarnation in ancient and modern times that was also targeted and destroyed?" Wang Xuan frowned, secretly speculating.

"Why is it so difficult? Why don't we even get a chance to risk our lives and make a final gamble?"

"Does missing out mean it's gone forever, and there's no chance to get it back?!"

Some people, Transcendent Immortals with regret, lost their composure and felt that their lives had suddenly lost their light and their future was gone.

The fact that neither the ancient nor the modern has appeared for two consecutive years and failed to fulfill its obligations speaks volumes.

The immortals and demons of yesteryear, now alive, have lost all hope. Some of them have indeed despaired. Judging from the current situation, one wrong step has led to another!

This time, Wang Xuan gave the last remaining Super Material to Qing Mu, Zhong Qing, Zhong Cheng, and others who were in very poor condition. After a century of consumption, the gentle Supernatural Factor had been depleted.

"Thank you." Mo Si also received a little. He was now old and gray. The demonic youth of yesteryear, the core figure of the fourth generation of the demonic path, was now in the stage of failing eyesight. His cultivation had damaged his internal organs and spirit.

Wang Xuan went into seclusion once again, hoping to make further progress and find a glimmer of hope.

After more than a hundred years of cultivation, he rose from an ordinary person to the seventh level of the Master of Nurturing Life. Each level of advancement was extremely difficult, which could no longer be entirely attributed to the problems of the general environment.

After all, the light representing the essence of his flesh and blood returned and merged with him, the decaying energy of the old era on his body was constantly cut off, and the harsh suppression of the Great Universe on him was not so intense, as if he were being reborn in the new era.

However, the later stages of this Great Realm are too difficult to cultivate, after all, it is close to becoming an immortal. Once you surpass the Ninth Stage of Nurturing Life, that is the time to Ascension to Immortality.

The idea of ascending to immortality in just over a hundred years is somewhat unrealistic.

While it cannot be said that they absolutely never existed in history, those with definite records seem to be unavailable.

Even Fang Yuzhu, one of the top immortals, only over two hundred years old did he undergo the Heavenly Tribulation and embark on the path to Ascension to Immortality.

Of course, she retained her physical body.

"I saw the interior and came in again, but..." He had been trying to capture that blurry Inner Scenery Realm for years, approaching it with divine sense and merging into it in Super-God State. He had finally entered it three times.

Overall, the restoration of the Inner Scenery Realm is still not quite complete.

This time, nothing changed. He entered the Inner Scenery Realm, where the Super Material was dense but incredibly domineering, while the gentle Supernatural Factor were so thin they were practically nonexistent.

Now, his Inner Scenery Realm is no longer filled with the Super Material falling like goose feathers in the past, but with Heavenly Fire and lightning descending, not limited to the five-colored matter, but also other things, domineering to the extreme.

Wang Xuan can temper his body and spirit here, but others cannot adapt to these substances, and the problem has remained unsolved for a hundred years.

The extraordinary year 104 arrived. Two months later, a large number of spaceships came to the outer space of Old Earth again. Transcendent Immortals and gods still did not give up and arrived on time in the third year!

On this day, Zhong Qing and her brother Zhong Cheng appeared. They had endured so much to reach this day, but they hadn't given up. This time, they came lying on a special bed chair.

"They have such great perseverance and determination. If this were the era of the extraordinary, they would surely become immortals." Some people couldn't help but sigh when they saw them.

Mo Si was deathly pale, but he insisted on standing, supported by the Ghost Monk.

On this day, after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement. Some people fell into complete silence. After disappointment, they were utterly desperate, and all that was left was a heart as cold as ashes.

"Boom!"

Half a day later, a tremendous tremor came from the Planar Crevice, indicating a huge disturbance.

The marks left by the past and present appear first; they are left as a backup, like a key that has been copied. After carefully sensing them, it begins to guide.

"This is my true form!" it clearly told all the immortals and gods.

"They're here... they're finally here!" someone shouted excitedly.

The Planar Crevice trembled violently, and light shone through, consistent with the aura left behind in ancient and modern times!

"We've waited for this!" Hot tears streamed down Zhong Cheng's aged face and from his eyes.

"We've arrived." Zhong Qing was exhausted, and tears streamed down her face.

"Even if I'm in a wheelchair, I'm going to become an immortal!" Zhong Cheng shouted wearily but loudly.
