Transcendence

Time flies by, and another 100,000 years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Over the past 100,000 years, the Mysterious Firmament Realm has continuously devoured and refined the Myriad Devils Realm, making its territory increasingly vast and perfecting its Great Dao Principle.

However, the size of the Myriad Devils Realm is simply too vast; 100,000 years is not enough to fully refine it, and it will still require a long period of further refinement.

Over the course of ten thousand years, Liu Yi traveled throughout the myriad realms, tasting all the delicacies of the heavens, living a carefree and unrestrained life.

His cultivation level has also become increasingly powerful, reaching the peak of the Dao Extreme Realm.

Although he has not yet broken through to a higher realm, his strength continues to grow as the Great Dao of the Boundless Chaos Sea continues to improve and new Great Daos are constantly being born.

He even upgraded the Fairness System to version 18.0, and the Origin System became Chaos Supreme Treasure.

This version upgrade did not add any new features; it only optimized the existing features.

The Xuanyi World, the Heavenly Dao Space.

Liu Yi sat cross-legged on the Chaos Azure Lotus, which had become Chaos Supreme Treasure, and focused his mind, preparing to go into seclusion to the Transcendence Realm.

The Dao Extreme Realm represents the limit of the boundless Chaos Sea and the Great Dao. Even if one's strength can continue to increase, it still remains within the Great Dao.

To transcend the Dao Extreme Realm, one must transcend the Great Dao itself and rise above all other Daos, concepts, logic, and narratives.

His proposed method of transcendence was to integrate the concept of "nothingness" into his own Great Dao of the World, moving from existence to nothingness, returning to nothingness, and then transforming back into existence.

From existence arises non-existence, and from non-existence arises existence, thus breaking through the limits of the Great Dao.

The concepts of "existence" and "non-existence" are both mutually opposed and mutually unified.

In this way, one can break free from the shackles of the Great Dao, transcend the Great Dao, and be outside its scope, thus achieving liberation.

This method of transcendence is extremely risky; the slightest misstep will result in utter nothingness and eternal annihilation.

Even if he were at the Perfect Dao Extreme Realm, there would be no possibility of resurrection.

However, after so many years of repeated deductions, he believes that this method can indeed break free from the shackles of the Great Dao and achieve the Transcendence Realm.

Of course, there may be other ways to transcend this, but he felt that this method was the most suitable for him.

Liu Yi's gaze hardened.

He has always been cautious and rarely puts himself in danger, but this time, as he breaks through to the Transcendence Realm, he will face immense peril.

If one cannot break through this barrier, one will not be able to survive the Chaos Annihilation Tribulation in the future; even if one has reached the peak of the Perfect Dao Extreme Realm, one will still be unable to escape the fate of demise in the end.

To survive, you have to take this step.

This path is fraught with danger at every turn, but without breaking through, there is only one way out: death. It's just a matter of sooner or later.

Whether for his own sake, for the sake of his family and friends, or for the sake of the countless beings in the Mysterious Firmament Realm, he must overcome this challenge.

Once the Chaos Annihilation Tribulation descends, the entire boundless Chaos Sea will be utterly Destruction, and the Mysterious Firmament Realm will not be spared either.

The Mysterious Firmament Realm has not even reached the level of Infinite Multiverse yet, let alone Eternal World.

Compared to having the Mysterious Firmament Realm advance to Eternal World, it is more hopeful for him to break through to the Transcendence Realm himself.

He calmed his mind, cleared his mind of distractions, and slowly integrated the concept of "nothingness" that he had come to understand into his own Great Dao of the World.

As the concept of "nothingness" continued to permeate his Great Dao of the World became increasingly ethereal and illusory, as if it would disappear at any moment. Liu Yi's figure also gradually turned into nothingness.

When the concept of "nothingness" is fully integrated into the Great Dao of the World.

The Great Dao, along with Liu Yi's figure, completely disappeared from the Chaos Azure Lotus.

In the next instant, the concept of "existence" sprouted from nothingness, and Liu Yi's outline slowly appeared.

But just as his form took shape, the concept of "nothingness" suddenly surged forth again, and he returned to nothingness once more.

Appearance and disappearance, repeated again and again, in an endless cycle.

Liu Yi struggled, striving to achieve a balance between the opposing yet unified concepts of "existence" and "non-existence".

As time slowly passed, Liu Yi was able to maintain his existence for a gradually longer period of time.

A transcendent aura slowly emanated from him.

This aura transcends the Great Dao, does not belong to any of the myriad paths and laws, and cannot even be described by the Great Dao.

His Great Dao of the World, and the infinite Great Dao Principle he had comprehended, all vanished.

Even the concepts of "existence" and "non-existence" have disappeared.

He no longer possesses any concept of the Great Dao, nor even the Dao itself; he is now devoid of both the Dao and the Law.

Or perhaps, he himself is the Tao.

A single thought gives rise to the Dao, a single thought extinguishes the Dao, a single thought is eternal.

From then on, he transcended the boundless Chaos Sea, transcended the Great Dao, and rose above all Great Daos, logic, concepts, and narratives, reaching a state of omniscience, omnipotence, and all-powerful ability.

The Great Dao can be created at will, and destroyed at will.

As Liu Yi completed his breakthrough, there were no unusual phenomena in the outside world, and this Heavenly Dao Space remained calm and peaceful.

Everything happened silently.

The Great Dao cannot describe him, nor can it define him, nor can it perceive his breakthrough, nor can it even detect his existence.

With a single glance, he took in the entire boundless Chaos Sea.

Whether it is the past, present, or future, or the Dao Source, or its end, everything is laid bare.

Even the future Chaos Annihilation Tribulation could be annihilated with a single thought, allowing the boundless Chaos Sea to safely weather this ultimate tribulation.

However, he did not choose to take immediate action.

The Chaos Annihilation Tribulation have not yet arrived, but as the third thousandth chaotic era, fortune is flourishing.

Perhaps a world will be elevated to Eternal World, or perhaps a new transcendent being will emerge.

If no one can do it in the end, then it won't be too late for him to step in.

The third thousandth Chaos Era was the last era of the boundless Chaos Sea.

If they can safely survive the Chaos Annihilation Tribulation, a new era will begin, and the boundless Chaos Sea will become even more powerful; if they fail, they will face utter Destruction.

It can be said that all the powerful beings who have lived from the past Chaos Era to the third Chaos Era will gather in this world to fight for survival.

If we cannot overcome this calamity, all worlds and living beings will be destroyed, and even the boundless Chaos Sea itself will perish eternally.

"I have transcended all calamities and tribulations; I am impervious to all harm. The Chaos Annihilation Tribulation poses no threat to me."

I'd better go beyond the boundless Chaos Sea and take a look first.

He took a step forward, instantly leaving the boundless Chaos Sea and descending into a Land of Void.

There is no time, no space, no laws, not even concepts.

Everything is empty, everything is nothing.

He raised his eyes and scanned the surroundings, carefully sensing this Land of Void with his mind. He could not find any trace of the Dao here, only a feeling of nothingness.

He looked back at the boundless Chaos Sea from which he had just transcended.

At this moment, the boundless Chaos Sea is no longer endless, but a sphere of chaotic color.

It is essentially a chaotic world.

He then discovered a slightly smaller chaotic world not far from it.

Within it lies an endless Chaos Sea, where countless worlds rise and fall amidst the Chaos Qi, and where all living beings thrive and multiply.

He slowly extended his palm, and the concept of "existence" rose from within it, using it to counteract the "nothingness" of the Land of Void.

If one cannot resist "nothingness," both the world and the cultivators will instantly vanish and return to nothingness.

Immediately afterwards, a world appeared from the palm of his hand, and all the myriad paths of the heavens and the myriad Great Dao Principle intertwined to form a vast network of laws, supporting the nascent world.

Then boundless Chaos Qi appeared, filling the entire world.

And so, another boundless Chaos Sea, or rather, a completely new chaotic world, was born.

He examined the newly formed chaotic world in his palm, carefully inspected it, and confirmed that the world was functioning normally.

However, its scale is considerably smaller compared to the other two chaotic worlds.

But it is ultimately a complete chaotic world, and it only needs to continue to evolve on its own, and its size will gradually expand and grow.

He casually tossed the newly formed chaotic world aside.

Thus, this Land of Void now contains three chaotic worlds.

At that moment, he had an epiphany.

You don't necessarily have to imitate the chaotic world to create a world; you can create the primordial world or other types of worlds.

The entire world exists in a single thought.

The great path may take many turns, but it leads to the same goal.

He now knows that there are other ways to break through to the Dao Extreme Realm, and it is not necessary to integrate the concept of "existence" into the Great Dao like he did.

The difference lies in the method of breakthrough; the resulting strength varies.

Liu Yi's gaze fell upon the chaotic world where the Mysterious Firmament Realm was located, his eyes distant.

"Earth, I've finally found you. I'm going to take a good look at what secrets you're hiding."

He took a step forward and instantly returned to the boundless Chaos Sea, and the next moment he was in outer space.

Looking at this universe, which is at the level of Half-Step Eternal World, only one step away from becoming Eternal World remains.

But even Half-Step Eternal World shouldn't be able to stop someone at the Dao Extreme Realm from exploring.

Something strange is going on on Earth!

At that moment, in his eyes, the Earth seemed to be formed from the infinite Dao.

Every flower, every blade of grass, every stone, every clod of earth is constructed from the boundless Dao, and is by no means composed of ordinary matter.

Even Half-Step Eternal World could never reach such a state.

What's strange is that while most people on Earth are A Mortal, there are still a few cultivators at the Dao Extreme Realm.

He followed his senses and looked around, and a courtyard came into view.

A young man was smiling slightly at him from behind a tea table in the courtyard.

"This humble Daoist priest, Liu Fu, welcomes Fellow Liu Yi home. Do you have a moment to come in for a cup of tea?"

Liu Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, and a storm of emotions surged within him.

Aside from myself having just Transcendence Realm, there are actually others who have already achieved Transcendence Realm.

He nodded and smiled, "Then I'll have to trouble you, fellow Daoist."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was already in front of the other person, sitting down in a chair, taking the teacup offered to him, and taking a Qianqian sip.

The tea has a refreshing aroma and a sweet taste, with an endless sense of tranquility that bursts forth in your mouth.

An ordinary person could become Immortal Emperor after just one sip, but it had no effect on him.

"Good tea!"

He looked at the other person and said with a smile, "I thought I would be the first to transcend, but I never expected that you, fellow Daoist, would be so exceptionally talented and transcend before me."

"I was only able to transcend this by fortuitous opportunity," Liu Fu said with a faint smile.

"Fellow Daoist, why be so modest? How could your ability to transcend worldly concerns be a mere coincidence?"

Liu Yi smiled calmly, not believing the other party's explanation of a fortuitous opportunity.

"The fact that Earth has become Half-Step Eternal World must be due to you, fellow Daoist."

Liu Fu smiled and nodded, "After I transcended the heavens and traveled through all the worlds, I returned to Earth to settle down."

Although I have always deliberately concealed my aura, living here for many years has still driven the rapid evolution of Earth and the entire universe.

In a short time, the universe was elevated to Half-Step Eternal World, and Earth was directly formed from the Great Dao.

It is precisely because of my existence that the Tianji of the Earth have been obscured.

It also suppressed Earth, preventing the universe from reaching Half-Step Eternal World, unlike other Infinite Multiverse, from generating more spacetime.

The only thing Earth can do is continuously generate parallel Earths from the boundless Chaos Sea.

He paused briefly, then continued to Liu Yi, "As for your time travel, it wasn't my doing."

It is the Earth's Will that will select some of the deceased Earthlings and send them to the myriad realms.

Liu Yi nodded slightly.

Upon returning to Earth, he had already gone back in time to examine the entire process of his time travel, and it was confirmed that there was no human intervention involved.

Many literary works on Earth correspond to real worlds.

I noticed that most of them were stories about the world emanating information, which the authors captured and then wrote into their own narratives.

But there is another part of the world that was created by humankind.

"I wonder if these were done by you, fellow Daoist?"

"One part of that world was indeed created by my own hands. Do you know why I did it?"

Liu Fu's expression turned serious, and before Liu Yi could speak, he said directly:

"I want to verify whether the future trajectory of the author's works can influence the Fate of the corresponding world."

Is there a close causal link between the two?

Upon hearing this, Liu Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly deduced the true purpose behind the other party's actions.

A bold guess suddenly popped into his mind, causing his expression to change slightly.

Liu Fu glanced at Liu Yi and said with a faint smile, "It seems you guessed it too."

The world we live in might be the world of a literary work, and we are the characters in that book.

Or perhaps a literary work corresponds to our world, and our experiences are sensed by the author and written into a story.

I know you might find this hard to believe, but it's true.

If you don't believe me, you are welcome to investigate the situation outside the Land of Void.

Liu Yi remained silent for a moment, slowly calming his emotions.

What you're saying is truly absurd, but it's not entirely impossible.

"What did you see when you explored beyond the Land of Void?"

With a distant gaze, Liu Fu slowly said, "I saw the words of my past novels, as well as the blurry outlines of tables, chairs, computers, mobile phones, cars, and skyscrapers."

That place is very similar to Earth; it's another world.

I attempted to break through the void, but my strength was insufficient, and I ultimately could not transcend the Void Boundary.

"Wait a moment, I'll also go and investigate the situation outside the Land of Void."

Liu Yi flashed and instantly arrived at the Land of Void, activating his magic Law Power to reflect the scene outside the Land of Void.

The texts that appeared before my eyes described his various experiences.

Then he caught glimpses of the blurry outlines of cell phones, computers, tables and chairs, but did not see any tall buildings or cars.

Upon seeing this, Liu Yi fell silent.

Seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving.

Although I didn't see skyscrapers or cars, I suppose it's mostly because my own abilities were insufficient to see more of the sights.

He returned to the courtyard in a flash, sat down in a chair, picked up his teacup, and took a sip.

"I saw it too. What you said earlier might be true."

The world is so big, there are truly all sorts of wonders.

I never imagined that we might be characters created by an author, or that our experiences might have been captured by people in another world and turned into a story.

However, it no longer matters which category it belongs to.

I can truly feel that I am real, and not just a piece of text.

His eyes gleamed with a sharp light, brimming with fighting spirit.

"Haha, I now have a new goal. I hope that one day I can break through the Void Boundary and go to that world to explore it."

"Haha, I'm just as curious about that world, and I'd love to meet the author in person." Liu Fu laughed and nodded repeatedly.

Just then, the two sensed the appearance of another Earth traveler and exchanged a glance.

"I didn't expect another Earth traveler to appear. This person gives me a very strange feeling, as if he's the beginning of a new story."

"I feel the same way. Let's explore the landscape beyond the Land of Void once more."

The two figures flashed and instantly appeared in the Land of Void, joining forces to reflect the scene outside the Land of Void, trying to find out if this new transmigrator was related to that author.

A computer screen appeared from nothingness, displaying lines of text that recounted the experiences of this time traveler.

Liu Yi gazed at the scene before him, fell silent once more, and then sighed:

"Unexpectedly, this time traveler has reconnected with that author."

"Do you think we can rewrite the story the author wrote?"

Liu Fu's expression was slightly strange. "I'm worried about unexpected changes. I've never tried to directly alter the story written by an author through the Void Boundary, and I don't know if I can do it."

But I can assure you that we can decide the Fate of that time traveler.

In this way, the story will naturally change.

Or perhaps it would be completely eliminated, bringing the story directly to its finale, or it would simply be abandoned and left unfinished.

Liu Yi said solemnly, "If we directly alter the story written by the author through the Void Boundary, it may indeed lead to unexpected changes."

This is something that definitely needs to be handled with caution.

However, we can wait and see how things develop; there's no need to directly eliminate this fellow Earthling.

He was innocent and never provoked us.

We can take this opportunity to carefully observe the deep connection between him and the stories he writes, and perhaps find a way to break through the Void Boundary.

It's not too late to take action when it's absolutely necessary.

"Let's test whether the death of this fellow Earthling will affect the plot of the story the author is writing."

(The End)
