To understand a world, one must understand its history.

In a broad sense, people in the lower realms understand the immortal realm as a world that was likely created 300,000 years ago. Back then, the Great Canglong World was corrupted by the Nightmare Tribulation, and it had no choice but to create its own realm to escape the disaster.

Although other worlds were not corrupted, seeing the powerful dragons forced to relocate filled them with fear, lest the Nightmare Tribulation befall their own lands someday.

At this moment, several powerful beings stepped forward and declared that if the dragon race could create a new world, so could they!

However, the dragon race is vast and requires a large world to contain it, while their race is small, at most bringing tens or hundreds of millions of their own Lineage, which is not worth creating a new world for them.

So countless immortals united and created the immortal realm.

This is the history of the immortal realm that is passed down in the mortal world. In the eyes of the people in the mortal world, the immortal realm is a new world with a lifespan of only 300,000 years.

However, this is not the case in [Ethereal Immortal Path].

The Immortal Realm in [Ethereal Immortal Path] is an ancient and eternal world. According to some ancient immortals, the Immortal Realm has existed for even longer than the mortal realm.

In other words, it has a guaranteed lifespan of at least 40 billion years.

However, the previous Immortal Realm was just an ordinary world, except that this world had no planets and was flat with a round sky.

In other words, the Immortal Realm is a plane that exists independently of the world.

Until 300,000 years ago, countless immortals descended from the sky, bringing not only population and resources, but also the Principle of immortality.

These countless immortal Principle merged into this plane, causing it to grow larger and larger, the Immortal Qi to become more and more concentrated, and the world barrier to become thicker and thicker. In an extremely short period of time, less than ten thousand years, this plane completed the leap from a small plane to a large world.

From this point on, the plane was no longer a plane, but a celestial realm!

In other words, the celestial realm wasn't born as such; it became so because so many immortals lived there.

Another point worth noting is that the world barrier of the immortal realm is slowly increasing as the number of immortals surges.

It is said that in the early days, cultivators at the Divine Human Realm could ascend to immortality. Later, as the thickness of the world barrier increased and the ranks of immortals increased, the requirement for ascension was raised from the Divine Human Realm to the Earth Immortal Realm.

The term "gods and immortals" originated from this period, because both gods and immortals could ascend to the upper realm.

He's only at the Earth Immortal level now; it's estimated that the requirement will be raised to the Celestial Immortal level in a while.

The lower realm can still barely cultivate Earth Immortals, but if the world barrier of the Immortal Realm becomes so thick that only Celestial Immortals can ascend, then probably no one will be able to ascend at that time.

The thicker the barrier to the world, the more difficult it becomes to absorb Immortal Qi. Currently, it is possible to cultivate to the level of Earth Immortal in the lower realm, but in the future, the upper limit of cultivation in the lower realm may only be that of a Divine Human.

Even gods can't stop it, because the Spiritual Qi in many worlds still relies heavily on immortal artifacts to absorb and transform Immortal Qi Spiritual Qi. Once the difficulty of absorbing Immortal Qi increases, the concentration of Spiritual Qi in their worlds and sects will also decrease.

This will lead to a decrease in the overall cultivation level of the world.

Now they can even cultivate gods and immortals; who knows, maybe in the future, those who reach the Golden Core Stage can become Buddhas and ancestors.

Hundreds of thousands of years from now, the Body Refinement Realm might become the limit for humanity.

"In other words, this golden age of cultivation is about to end, and the calamity of the Dharma's decline is about to arrive!" Yang Ning, who was also reading a book, had a strange expression on his face.

Actually, as long as we upgrade and modify the star, build a Dyson sphere that covers the star and collects the power of the sun, the Spiritual Qi will be sufficient. But the fear is that the birth of the sun's power is also related to the celestial realm.

What if, with the ascension of the Celestial Realm, the stars cease producing Solar True Force?

Relying on the Lunar True Force?

Stop joking, the Lunar True Force originates from the Solar True Force.

However, this has nothing to do with Yang Ning, because he follows the Way of the Nightmare Immortal.

The Way of the Nightmare Immortal does not require a high level of Spiritual Qi energy; ordinary light energy, heat energy, and chemical energy can all be used for cultivation.

When the Age of Dharma Decline arrives, and Spiritual Qi disappears, and the path of immortality becomes obsolete, wouldn't the Way of the Nightmare Immortal become the most mainstream cultivation path for humanity?

Yang Ning didn't know what the benefits would be of having everyone in the world cultivate his Dao, but he could imagine that the benefits would be enormous!

If there were no benefits, the original path of immortality could not have been spread.

Wouldn't it be better to have my own unique way of thinking?

"Besides absorbing the power of authority and simplifying the Nightmare Script, I also need to think about how to spread Nightmare Energy," Yang Ning said, looking at the world he had created, which was still in a void.

Since the Immortal Realm can evolve along with the increase in immortals and the Principle of immortality, my world should also be able to evolve along with the increase in the Nightmare Sage Power and the Principle of Nightmare.

"You call yourself the Immortal Realm, then I'll call myself the Nightmare Realm!"

With a thought, Yang Ning continuously channeled the Nightmare Sage Power into the Nightmare Realm. He originally needed a place to store the Nightmare Sage Power, and now that he had the Nightmare Realm, it was just right.

As for the issue of creation, the existence of the Nightmare Sage Power does not affect his ability to create; on the contrary, it gives him more possibilities!

Let's get back to the main topic.

That great being who casually wrote down his travelogue probably never imagined that he was simply recording what he saw, knew, and felt—just a travelogue—that someone could see the coming of the Dharma-ending Age from it!

He also wrote in detail about the various realms of immortality and the Divine Ability that should be present in each realm.

For example, the immortal realms are divided into seven levels: Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, True Immortal, Golden Immortal, Mysterious Immortal, Great Luo Immortal, and Supreme Sage Saint.

Earthly Immortals possess Divine Ability powers that manifest as Principle, known as Earth Immortal Law. They control a blessed land and can become the ruler of that land.

Celestial Immortals are those whose mortal bodies are transformed into immortal bodies, whose Daoist arts are transformed into Principle known as Heavenly Immortal Law. They control a celestial realm and can become the rulers of a world.

True Immortals, Heavenly Immortal Law continue to evolve and transform into True Immortal Method, possess the ability to transform the false into the true. They can create concepts that do not exist in the world, such as magic and battle qi, which are the products of many experiments conducted by True Immortals.

A Golden Immortal is one whose True Immortal Method have been transformed into Golden Immortal Method. Their golden nature is immortal, and they are also known as Immortal Golden Immortals. They are beings who have transcended the world. They are imperishable even if heaven and earth destroy them. No natural calamity can kill a Golden Immortal.

The Great Luo is the final step in the transformation of the Principle of immortality. From this point on, the Principle transform into rules, merge into the world, and become a part of the immortal path. From this point on, as long as the Great Dao is immortal, I am immortal. As long as there are people in heaven and earth who inherit its Dao and cultivate its methods, the cultivation level of the Great Luo will increase without limit.

The Great Luo can no longer be killed by conventional methods, and even traveling through worlds is impossible. The moment he achieves the Great Luo, his Dao Fruit will reflect the past, present, and future. At this moment, he is the Great Luo, and in any segment of the river of time, he is also the Great Luo.

Of course, reversing time is impossible. In this vast world, time can be compressed, expanded, or stopped, but it cannot be reversed.

As for the even higher level of Supreme Sage.

This great being simply wrote: Unfathomable, unfathomable, Supreme Sage holy and immeasurable.

Perhaps this author himself was not Supreme Sage, or did not have Supreme Sage elder, so he did not know what kind of Supreme Sage Divine Ability a saint possessed.

However, Yang Ning could make a rough guess based on the previous description.

Although the Great Luo is powerful, it is still within the realm of the Immortal Path. At most, it has some shares in the Immortal Path and has become a minor shareholder.

Was that Supreme Sage someone who transcended the path of immortality and created his own path?

For example, the Way of Demons, the Blood Dao, the Ghost Dao, the Way of Curses, the Way of Swords, the Formation Dao, the Artifact Dao, and the Dao of Alchemy.

His conjecture is not without basis.

Because it will be mentioned later!
