Ch. 2141Mortal World Spring and Autumn, Sentient Beings' Joys and Sorrows
After severing the Ascension Passage, Chen Xun struggled to feel connected to the Mortal World, but He Ling reminded him that the Dao could be found in ordinary life and the joys and sorrows of living beings. The chapter ended with Chen Xun laughing with Big Black Ox and Little Crimson before Little Crimson frightened a family of mountain dwellers.
- NanGong HeLing severed the Ascension Passage between the Lower Realm and the Three Thousand Immortal Territories, drawing both realms' origins into the Eternal Immortal Frontier.
- Chen Xun told He Ling that the mountains and rivers felt too small to him after a thousand years of focusing on vast conflicts and the fate of the universes.
- He Ling recalled sages who found the Dao through simple observations and urged Chen Xun to see the Mortal World Spring and Autumn and the Sentient Beings' Joys and Sorrows.
- Chen Xun joked with He Ling, then joined Big Black Ox and Little Crimson in tasting a terrible fruit that screamed when they ate it.
- Little Crimson frightened two children and their father when they passed the Daoist temple, then grinned as they ran away.
