Yao Yue's face was ashen as she looked at the figure ahead, who seed like an immortal deity.
She might never don the robes of Lord Crossing the World in this lifeti. Her only option... was to steal his spirit stones and use so tricks.
On the ground, beings from all over Xuanwei Heaven were dumbfounded. What just happened?! What flew past?!
"What is that axe mark on the mountain..."
A being pointed with a trembling voice, their eyes nearly popping out. The Chaotic Path Divine Mountain that stretched across the distant land had been split in two, with black flas burning in the middle!
A man and a woman stood atop an ancient tree, their expressions filled with shock as they looked at the split mountain. One strike, just one strike!!!
"Pang Ze, did you see that, just now..."
"Yu Xiao, I saw it. A being wielded an axe, splitting the divine mountain with one strike. We... should keep our distance."
Pang Ze felt his soul trembling. They had truly witnessed that scene. "We must not provoke that supre being, or there will be dire consequences."
"Mm... mm..." Yu Xiao's voice was still trembling. Only Void Refinent cultivators could appear here, but this scene was even more terrifying than facing a Great Ascension Venerable, utterly absurd.
At this mont, the Boundary-breaking Ship sped forward, following the guidance of the Babel Token, climbing rapidly without any hesitation. However, it would occasionally stop to gain insights. They did not compete for ranking but only sought the gifts of heaven and earth.
Inside the Babel Tower, a year later.
Having reached the three hundredth floor, everyone had no issues and had even beco significantly stronger.
...
Another two years passed.
They reached the five hundredth floor, where the terrifying embodints of the Chaotic Path existed, bizarre and deadly, yet they still carved a bloody path forward, continuing to ascend!
...
In the blink of an eye, another three years passed.
On the eight hundredth floor of the Babel Tower, the pressure on everyone increased sharply, but they could still gain insights into the world. Chen Xun and Black Bull remained calm, acting together, causing the heavens and earth to crumble around them as the Boundary-breaking Ship surged forth from the destruction, moving forward alone!
They even obtained a considerable amount of Purple Mansion Green Spirit Liquid and Returning to Origin Purple God Essence, which descended alongside the gifts of heaven and earth, ultimately collected by Ji Yan, who had great use for them.
They paid no attention to these items, only feeling a sense of admiration and awe for the two figures ahead, having completely submitted. Their strength surpassed even that in the Immortal Prison.
...
The Boundary-breaking Ship moved unhindered within the Babel Tower, facing all disasters, continuously climbing higher and higher. After spending twenty years inside the Babel Tower, they finally stopped today.
Because they had reached the portal to the thousandth floor of the Babel Tower.
Everyone was receiving imnse gifts from heaven and earth, including Chen Xun and Black Bull, who were also breaking more and more of their Dao chains. A few hundred more tis, and they could sever ten thousand paths!
A month later, they set sail again.
The expressions of the people were no longer filled with shock but were incredibly calm, their auras becoming quite formidable. So beings even felt they were nearing their own limits.
Yet those two continued to forcibly elevate them. Lord Crossing the World only said one thing: We can still protect you for a while, do not worry. When we can no longer manage, then you may leave.
There were no grandiose words, just this simple yet soul-stirring statent.
...
Ti flowed within the Babel Tower, and the once lonely passage of ti gained substance here. Destruction and rebirth alternated in the chaotic world, like ancient mories fading away, long and elusive.
The color of ti, deepened by the passage of years in the immortal realm, faded from its initial brightness, imrsing itself in fragnted solitude, a millennium having passed.
At the portal to the two-thousandth floor of the Babel Tower.
The Boundary-breaking Ship was damaged all over, and Chen Xun and Black Bull were severely injured, unable to withstand the pressure of the Chaotic Path on thousands of people, having reached their absolute limit.
Everyone's faces were filled with unbearable expressions, as if suppressing sothing intensely, unable to utter a word.
Black Bull was breathing heavily, his eyes trembling slightly, his steps unsteady.
Chen Xun planted an axe on the portal ground, looked at everyone, and forced a smile, slowly speaking, "Brothers... I didn't break my promise, did I? I didn't let you down, right?"
"Crossing the World!" Ji Yan's hair was disheveled, his eyes trembling as he looked at the blood-dripping Chen Xun. He once thought no one in this world could stir his emotions.
But... today, in these thousand years, his heart wavered. Ji Yan had never been subdued by Chen Xun; they had always been in a cooperative relationship.
However, from this mont, even he didn't realize his mindset had begun to change. Ji Yan frowned deeply but ultimately said nothing more.
"My lord!"
Everyone instinctively shouted, their hearts already shaken beyond asure. The terrifying Dharma Aspect of heaven and earth could even resonate with the Dao of heaven and earth, a being on a completely different level.
Yao Yue wanted to express concern but instead coldly said, "Lord Crossing the World, don't die here. You've brought us this far, and we still need ti to gain insights."
As soon as she finished speaking, a thousand murderous gazes swept over, and Yao Yue snorted coldly, quickly averting her eyes.
"Not dead yet." Chen Xun took a deep breath, his eyes showing a weariness that hadn't appeared in a long ti. "Let's rest and recover for a bit. We can't take you further on the path ahead for now."
"Crossing the World, it's enough."
Ji Yan's voice was unusually gentle, "Over two hundred years have passed outside, but to minimize the impact on the outside world, we will cultivate and gain insights within the portal. The ti here is the sa as outside. I've already made all the plans, so you don't need to worry."
"Alright."
"You focus on healing, don't worry about anything else. We'll wait for you here."
"Alright, I'll go fix the ship."
"Crossing the World... heal first."
"It's also our brother." Chen Xun's eyelids drooped slightly, a smile on his face as he turned to leave, "Just a small injury, it'll heal with ti."
Ji Yan watched their retreating figures, silently nodding.
Everyone here felt no joy or anxiety, but their Dao hearts were incredibly heavy.
They began to sit down and cultivate quietly. Over the millennium, Lord Crossing the World and Lord Black Bull had shielded them from all hardships. In the future, the only thing they could do was give their lives for them.
Tian Li's face was ferocious and grim, his eyes fixed on Chen Xun's back, as if wanting to kill them with his gaze.
But only those who had erged from the Immortal Prison together understood that such a gaze held no malice; it represented sothing else entirely.
Chen Xun, holding Black Bull, walked slowly towards the Boundary-breaking Ship and began repairs.
Every formation, every piece of material here, was among their few remaining possessions, crafted by their own hands.
They cherished it deeply, and seeing its damaged state, their hearts bled silently. However, with repairs and nurturing with the World Soul, it could slowly be restored.
Half a year later.
Chen Xun and Black Bull continued their journey on the path to the heavens. The formations set by Black Bull protected everyone, allowing them to completely retreat within the portal. Few beings could reach the two-thousandth floor, and they had yet to encounter any.
Only Ji Yan awoke at this ti to see them off, rely saying one thing: Know your limits, we'll be waiting for you here.
