I Am Invincible in the Mortal World

In the Body-as-Seed System, once the physical body became powerful enough to be indestructible, even a single drop of blood could defy the heavens and return. It was practically an all-around fighter, with only lifespan as its weakness.

An invincible body, eternal and indestructible—this was the confidence that allowed Shrouding the Heavens cultivators to challenge those above their level.

But that did not mean the Primordial Spirit was weak. On the contrary, if the full score was one hundred, then the Primordial Spirit was worth one hundred. It was simply that the physical body exceeded the full score, reaching one hundred and fifty, or even two hundred—something utterly beyond the standard.

"Come!"

Lin Xian soared into the air and walked upon the void. With a sharp cry, the divine light between his brows blasted through one stone cliff after another before circling back like a flying sword. It appeared indestructible, yet it was as gentle as a breeze brushing one's face, instantly perceiving every change nearby.

Under Divine Sense, people and objects were no longer concrete forms, but clusters of differently shaped qi. A real yet unconventional world unfolded before him, allowing him to sense everyone's cultivation and aura.

It was an incomparably delicate level of control, combining fierceness with gentleness. He could obliterate the entire area outside the pill chamber while leaving everyone within it completely unharmed.

Rumble!

The exploding stone walls sent dust soaring into the sky. Countless boulders came tumbling down with deafening roars, as though the mountains were collapsing and the earth splitting apart.

Everyone watching trembled inwardly, nearly losing their voices.

After a long while, an Other from the Quanzhen Sect muttered in a dreamlike groan, "By chance, while playing a game, I unleashed my divine sword and shattered Zhongnan's foremost peak. At dawn I roamed the Northern Yue; by dusk, Cangwu. With a green serpent in my sleeve, my courage was boundless..."

That had been Lü Zu's realm. He was a True Immortal said to have ascended and attained eternal life!

Could it be that today, they would witness the birth of an immortal?

In an instant, every Other was unable to contain their excitement. Immortality was the goal of all cultivators. If not for the hope of becoming immortal, then in this age overflowing with material desires, how many people would be willing to calmly cultivate?

It was precisely for that faint, elusive hope that generation after generation had sought immortals and pursued the Dao.

And now, myth had entered reality. Legends had appeared in the mortal world!

[Legend Value: 1%...3%...5%...]

[Iconic scene in progress. Host, keep up the good work.]

The system's ethereal voice rang out beside his ears. Lin Xian smiled knowingly. He had already touched the threshold of leaving his name in history.

The system's standard for an iconic scene required it to be recorded in history, sung of for thousands or tens of thousands of years, until history became a story, stories became legends, and legends became myths.

This was easy to achieve in the Shrouding the Heavens universe. As long as one cultivated to the Immortal Platform Secret Realm, even at its lowest level, one could easily live for one or two thousand years. Saints lived five or six thousand years—a whole civilization's history.

As long as one left an indelible mark and high-level cultivators remembered it, they would naturally pass it down to the next generation. Over time, myths and legends would take shape.

The Other world did not have that kind of quality, so he could only make up for it with quantity!

Bathed in sunlight, Lin Xian's body gleamed like flawless white jade, without the slightest impurity and carrying a faint luster. He seemed like an immortal lord who had stepped down from the clouds, possessing an invisible aura that made people bow their heads in shame.

"I am invincible in the mortal world!"

Lin Xian spoke calmly. His voice was not loud, yet it resounded in everyone's hearts. Amid countless fervent gazes, he stepped forward. In an instant, platinum radiance enveloped him, and beneath his feet emerged a dazzling golden-silver Sun-Moon Immortal Bridge, formed from Divine Rune and carrying him directly toward the Other Shore.

Faintly, the sound of wind and thunder rumbled. Lin Xian strode through the air like a deity.

Only then did the people left behind come to their senses. They hurriedly pulled out their phones, snapping photos as they excitedly spread the news to their fellow Others.

"Brother, do you know? I just saw an immortal!"

"Perfected Lin—no, that was the Divine Bridge Immortal Venerable!"

As the rumors spread, that golden-silver Immortal Bridge had already become Lin Xian's unique emblem. He seemed like an immortal from myth, stepping out through the Southern Heavenly Gate to guide all people toward immortality.

The Divine Bridge Immortal!

At that moment, he stood shoulder to shoulder with the immortals of every age. Like the blazing sun, his radiance shone across the ages. Both the Other world and the ordinary world had no choice but to record his name.

The Wind Family was shaken! The Company was shaken! Inhumans throughout the country were shaken! Inhumans across the entire world were shaken!

Compared to this, what was the Luotian Grand Ceremony? What were the Eight Extraordinary Skills? None of them were worth mentioning.

What were immortal arts? There was a living immortal right here.

Within the Company, Zhao Fangxu stared blankly at the sky. After a long time, he let out a breath of turbid air. He was glad that he had made the right choice and preserved peace in the Other world.

"Book me a plane ticket. I'm going to Mount Longhu," Zhao Fangxu ordered.

The secretary beside him froze, then said softly, "President Zhao, the Luotian Grand Ceremony is merely an event for younger Others. If you attend... wouldn't that be making too much of it?"

"The Luotian Grand Ceremony?" Zhao Fangxu suddenly smiled and asked, "Do you know what the Luotian Grand Ceremony is for?"

As the chairman's secretary, he assisted Zhao Fangxu in handling conflicts large and small throughout the Other world, so he naturally possessed a great deal of inside information. Without hesitation, he replied, "It is for the Celestial Master to choose someone for Zhang Chulan..."

"No, no, no." Zhao Fangxu shook his head and said meaningfully, "I mean its original purpose."

Its original purpose? The secretary froze slightly, then cold sweat poured down his forehead. The Luotian Grand Ceremony's most fundamental purpose was no secret. Even ordinary people could find out with a quick search on their phones.

It was one of the grandest rituals in Daoist fasting and offering ceremonies. Luotian meant the heavens, encompassing all the heavens and earth.

Simply put, it was to invite the immortals and deities of the heavens to pray blessings for all living beings under heaven.

"I am the chairman of the Company, but I am also an Other." A sharp gleam flashed through Zhao Fangxu's clouded eyes as he said in a deep voice, "How could I miss such a grand occasion?"

Whether this Luotian Grand Ceremony would truly pray for blessings was uncertain, but there really was an immortal.

Perhaps this would be the most genuine Luotian Grand Ceremony in history.

"Y-you mean the Divine Bridge Immortal Venerable will also attend the Luotian Grand Ceremony?" Even the normally composed secretary could not help crying out. "He... They..."

The secretary did not dare say the final words aloud, but inwardly he was screaming, He's insane.

The Divine Bridge Immortal Venerable was going to participate in the Luotian Grand Ceremony? Wasn't that like entering a heavyweight fighter into a children's competition?

That was not how this was done. It was simply too lacking in martial ethics.

"The Luotian Grand Ceremony is not his only objective..." Zhao Fangxu murmured, his gaze deep. On Mount Longhu, there was still One Pinnacle, whose might had dominated the mortal world for a hundred years.

Whether the Divine Bridge Immortal Venerable was truly a True Immortal would soon have an answer.

"President Feng, the Company has invited Others from across the land to attend the Luotian Grand Ceremony, but some of them still have not come. That truly is regrettable."

"Therefore, after the ceremony ends, I have decided to discuss the Dao with the Heaven-Connecting Daoist."

"Please notify him on my behalf."

After returning to the World Association, Lin Xian took Feng Baobao away and, while he was at it, asked Feng Zhenghao—one of the Ten Elders—to deliver a challenge for him.

An immortal of heaven against the invincible man of the mortal world.

The Divine Bridge Immortal Venerable Lin Xian would discuss the Dao with Old Celestial Master Zhang Zhiwei.

Once such news spread, even the most cold-hearted and emotionless Others would be moved. In order to witness whether immortals truly existed and who was number one under heaven, they would certainly find every possible way to rush to Mount Longhu and watch the battle.

"Immortal Venerable, are you truly going to fight?" Feng Zhenghao asked in a trembling voice, excited for the earth-shaking battle to come.

No matter who won, their name would be recorded in history!

"I am invincible in the mortal world. If I do not fight heaven, then whom should I fight?" Lin Xian said softly and calmly. "Let me witness the majestic heavenly might of the Five Thunder Righteous Method, said to have been born from Heavenly Tribulation."
