【At the age of 1,369,102, you emerged from reincarnation and returned to Tai Ze Great World. The moment you appeared, you were ambushed, but with your overwhelming cultivation, you fought your way out and released all the Tai Ze cultivators you had previously captured.】

【At the age of 1,369,320, you descended upon Great Hong Great World. While comprehending the Dao of Reincarnation in this world, you alarmed the entire realm. A supreme existence beyond Vast Heaven Free Immortal arrived and inflicted a severe wound upon you. At the crucial moment, you used the Immortal Emperor Eyes to escape.】

Gu An stared at the prompt. Seeing Yongsheng injured did not surprise him.

But to think that a being beyond Vast Heaven Free Immortal could act so recklessly—surviving such an encounter already proved the might of the Immortal Emperor Eyes.

Judging by the battle records so far, the divine abilities within the Immortal Emperor Eyes were not just for combat but also served as an ultimate escape method. This piqued Gu An’s curiosity even further.

He looked forward to one day inheriting the memories of Yongsheng.

Experiencing the life of Yongsheng firsthand would surely be far more thrilling than mere words could convey.

Through endless battles and countless wounds, Yongsheng always managed to escape from the jaws of death. Gu An maintained his usual approach—killing those who harbored enmity against him, avoiding unnecessary grudges, and if he encountered injustice, he made Yongsheng stand up for righteousness.

Gu An believed that good deeds would eventually be rewarded.

By the time Yongsheng reached two million years of age, he successfully stepped into the Innate Golden Immortal Realm, causing his power to soar. During his breakthrough, he was ambushed, yet he survived the tribulation through relentless slaughter, an event that shook history itself.

From this point on, Yongsheng had truly risen.

Though he and Xuan Mo Emperor frequently parted ways, they always managed to reunite. Gu An found it intriguing—Xuan Mo Emperor, without the Immortal Emperor Eyes, followed Yongsheng’s reckless path and yet continued to survive.

Perhaps, Xuan Mo Emperor had once been a peerless prodigy of his own era.

The number of great worlds Yongsheng had visited continued to grow. He traversed reincarnation, peered into fate, and after stepping into the Innate Golden Immortal Realm, he became nearly unmatched.

Yongsheng constantly pushed the limits of lifespan reincarnation, and Gu An eagerly anticipated how far he would ultimately go.

The cycle of reincarnation continued unfolding.

At ten million years old, Yongsheng attained the Measuring the Heavens Golden Immortal Realm. Under Xuan Mo Emperor’s persuasion, he finally chose to become the leader of the Dao Thief Immortal Sect, expanding the sect’s power to assist him in searching for Yao Xuan.

At more than fifty million years old, Yongsheng condensed the fortune of the Grand Dao and advanced to Supreme Purity Golden Immortal. At that moment, all Grand Dao Emperors across the myriad realms could sense his ascension.

From that moment onward, Yongsheng became an unerasable legend on the path of the Grand Dao Emperors.

Yet, he was still not happy.

He could not find Yao Xuan. As time passed, his determination did not waver—instead, it became an obsession. Once, Xuan Mo Emperor advised him to let go of his fixation and focus on developing the Dao Thief Immortal Sect. In response, Yongsheng erupted in fury, nearly obliterating him on the spot.

Gu An occasionally glanced at Shen Zhen. Her state of mind remained trapped in what seemed to be a dream—a nightmare, to be precise.

This made Gu An think of the suffering Yao Xuan might have endured.

He became increasingly certain that Shen Zhen and Yao Xuan shared some kind of connection.

What exactly was their relationship?

Perhaps, by the end of this cycle of lifespan reincarnation, he would find the answer.

At the same time, he marveled at the sheer power of lifespan reincarnation. The process was not even complete, yet it had already begun to influence reality itself.

The prompts continued.

In the following years, the Dao Thief Immortal Sect flourished. More and more powerful figures joined Yongsheng’s ranks, reminding Gu An of how Long Zhan had once established the War Court.

Compared to the War Court, the Dao Thief Immortal Sect seemed to have an even deeper foundation. However, Gu An was uncertain if, in his original era, the Dao Thief Immortal Sect still existed and whether it could rival the War Court.

Millions of years later, Yongsheng grew tired of leading the Dao Thief Immortal Sect and decided to embark on his own search for Yao Xuan.

Without Xuan Mo Emperor by his side, Yongsheng rarely encountered battles anymore. However, during his interactions with others, many women became infatuated with him. Fortunately, Gu An made sure to reject all of them on his behalf.

【At the age of 127,274,632, while comprehending the Dao within the Infinite Dao Sea, you were attacked by the Heavenly Punishment God. Despite the difference in cultivation, you managed to repel them.】

【At the age of 127,274,633, as the golden radiance of Heavenly Dao descended, the Heavenly Court dispatched divine generals and celestial soldiers to besiege you. The entire cosmic plane was sealed, leaving you with no way to escape. You were forced into a bitter battle, facing the suppression of Heavenly Dao itself. Even the Immortal Emperor’s Eye was unable to help you flee. Just as the celestial deities prepared to annihilate you, the Heavenly Buddha shattered the universe, forcibly rescuing you. However, he sustained severe injuries in the process.】

【At the age of 127,274,634, the Heavenly Buddha took you to the River of Karma and warned you never to step out again. You watched his retreating figure in silence for a long time.】

【At the age of 127,274,656, within the River of Karma, you encountered the Great Monument of Karma and began to comprehend its profound mysteries.】

As expected, a confrontation with the Heavenly Court had been inevitable! What shocked Gu An even more was that the Heavenly Buddha could actually contend against the Heavenly Court. Even though he suffered serious injuries, the fact that he managed to rescue Yongsheng showed just how powerful he was.

At the same time, Yongsheng himself had demonstrated terrifying strength. Despite being besieged by so many celestial deities, he had not been instantly slain. The phrase "bitter battle" proved that he had resisted for a long time, a testament to his immense power.

It was important to note that Yongsheng had not relied on lifespan evolution abilities in this battle. His greatest reliance was the Immortal Emperor’s Eye.

But what kind of formation had the Heavenly Court deployed? What was the lowest cultivation realm among the divine generals and celestial soldiers?

【At the age of 127,274,897, you comprehended the Great Monument of Karma and discovered that you were not your true self. This realization plunged you into deep confusion.】

【At the age of 127,275,704, you accepted your karmic existence. Instead of despairing over this revelation, you saw it as an opportunity. You could not save Yao Xuan, but a stronger version of you might be able to. You retrieved a single strand of hair that Yao Xuan had left behind and began tracing her karmic connections.】

【At the age of 127,291,546, you detected the location of other karmic incarnations, yet you still could not find your true self. Carrying Yao Xuan’s strand of hair, you merged it into the Great Monument of Karma and chose self-destruction within its depths.】

【You perished, your Dao vanished.】

【Reincarnation ended.】

Huh? It ended just like that?

Gu An never expected that Yongsheng’s life would conclude in such a manner.

He did not leave the Wushi Dao Field. Instead, he prepared to absorb the inherited memories on the spot.

The current Heavenly Spirit Great World was far more stable than before, not to mention that the Wushi Dao Field itself functioned as a lifespan barrier. However, it would inevitably stir some waves within the Dao Field.

Gu An closed his eyes, and an endless stream of memories surged into his mind, giving him an overwhelming sensation as though he were reliving another life.

He experienced Yongsheng’s life from the moment he first opened his eyes.

The Jinlan Immortal Palace was far larger than he had imagined, practically an entire independent world. And within the Vast Celestial Court, there were tens of thousands of such immortal palaces. These palaces were ranked, with Jinlan Immortal Palace ranking toward the lower end. Yet, the birth of the Immortal Emperor’s Eye had drawn the attention of countless powerful figures.

Through conversations with others, Gu An learned that the Immortal Emperor’s Eye was not unique, which was why the Heavenly Court never associated Yongsheng with the Dao Thief Emperor.

Then, misfortune struck. The Xuan Mo Emperor launched a raid, seizing Yongsheng’s Immortal Emperor’s Eye in the chaos. While escorting him to Spirit Mountain, his parents were killed one after another.

These experiences did not stir much emotion in Gu An, as he had already gone through multiple cycles of lifespan reincarnation.

However, through Yongsheng’s perspective, he witnessed the vast and boundless world of the Great Dao, broadening his understanding.

Upon arriving at Spirit Mountain, he was utterly shaken.

The height of Spirit Mountain was beyond imagination, surrounded by countless great worlds orbiting like stars. These worlds were so minuscule in comparison that even the nebulae of the universe seemed insignificant next to Spirit Mountain’s vastness.

The Buddhas within Spirit Mountain each radiated an extraordinary presence. Some even had golden bodies towering millions of feet tall. Gu An also saw the Heavenly Buddha. Upon witnessing his form, he immediately understood why the Heavenly Buddha had been able to save Yongsheng from the Heavenly Court’s grasp.

Just one glance, and Gu An could confirm that the Heavenly Buddha had surpassed the Supreme Purity Golden Immortal Realm.

After acknowledging him as a master, the Heavenly Buddha personally guided Yongsheng. In private, he no longer carried the overwhelming presence of an all-encompassing deity. Instead, he was like a kind and gentle monk, teaching Yongsheng cultivation and helping him navigate the confusions in his heart.

Under the Bodhi Sacred Tree, Yongsheng momentarily forgot all his past suffering.

The Heavenly Buddha allowed Gu An to witness what a true Buddha should be—one who possessed the power to shoulder all beings yet retained boundless compassion for even the weakest lives.
