The Eternal Calamity of the Heaven-shading

Chapter 106: The Test of the Immortal Lord
There are many immortal tombs, tall ancient monuments and endless tombs.

All the supreme beings who once lurked here have passed away, and now there is only a thatched cottage.

From the outside, the thatched cottage looks ordinary, even simple.

However, no matter whether it was a powerful leader or a gorgeous goddess, no matter what their cultivation level or identity, when the cultivators from the outside world came to this thatched cottage, they were all full of longing and respectful.

Because this is the residence of the Eternal Heavenly Lord.

Standing in the wind and waves with straw raincoats and hats on the oars, dreaming behind a curtain in the thatched cottage.

Twelve thousand years have passed, and as the fairy tomb was closed, no one dared to enter here without permission.

Until today, a visitor finally appeared.

As the void began to fluctuate, Chen Wu stood outside the thatched cottage, looking at the surrounding scene in silence.

The traces of the battle left when the immortal tombs were pacified have not yet been completely eliminated. A considerable number of tombs are cracked, and the original essence contained in them has all come out. Some are surrounded by yin energy, while others are auspicious clouds rising into the sky.

At this moment, a slightly vicissitudes of life voice sounded out of nowhere.

"Friend Yongjie, long time no see!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Changsheng Tianzun opened the door and walked out of the thatched cottage.

He has an ancient bun and wears a gray Taoist robe. His body is still straight, but his eyes reveal the depth and calmness of having experienced the vicissitudes of life.

It seems that time has left many marks on him.

Chen Wu said softly, "Fellow Daoist Changsheng, the last time we met was probably more than 30,000 years ago."

"Yes, I am old, but you have lived a new life. It is really awe-inspiring!"

Changsheng Tianzun smiled with emotion.

However, there was a hint of bitterness in that smile.

His second life also began to go downhill. Only by experiencing aging firsthand can one truly understand the difficulty of living against the tide.

But the Eternal Tribulation Lord across from him had transformed at least three times. How could this not make people feel emotional?
After staring at Changsheng Tianzun for a while, Chen Wu said again: "I think you can live for at least 10,000 years."

As the founder of the Zhe secret, Changsheng Tianzun lived for more than 20,000 years in his first life, almost comparable to Cao Yusheng.

Afterwards, he chose to take the elixir of immortality. Only twelve thousand years have passed since then, so he still has plenty of time to live.

"Daoyou Yongjie, you are too kind to me. I estimate that I only have less than 8,000 years to live. This is all because I took the elixir of immortality. I feel so ashamed in front of you, Daoyou. Now I finally understand my father's mentality at that time. The emergence of the restricted area is inevitable. After all, not everyone is as brilliant as you." Changsheng Tianzun laughed at himself.

"So, are you going to decide to kill yourself?"

After a moment of silence, Chen Wu asked the question again.

Time is the most ruthless force in the world. It can flatten mountains and turn oceans into mulberry fields.

Ordinary cultivators can also seal themselves with the help of magical objects such as divine sources and fall into deep sleep until the afterlife.

However, for strong people of Tianzun's level, nothing in the world can seal them, because they are too powerful and cannot be suppressed at all.

Only by cutting oneself and falling from the extreme realm can one seal oneself and avoid the baptism of time.

Regarding this point, although the operations of the Ancient Chaos Method and the Secret Realm Method are somewhat different, they are actually the same in essence, that is, through artificial means, the Tao Fruit is no longer flawless.

"Fellow Daoist Yongjie, please look at this."

In response to Chen Wu's question, Changsheng Tianzun did not give a direct answer, but raised his hand and seized a large tomb.

There is an old tree growing inside. As a tree, it is quite short, about one meter tall.

But the trunk of the tree is strong, and the old bark on it is cracked inch by inch, as if there is a coiled dragon coiled on the surface, those are its dragon scales.

"This is the ancient tree of life." Chen Wu said calmly.

Changsheng Tianzun nodded.

"That's right, the Ancient Tree of Life, one of the elixirs of immortality, contains infinite life essence."

rustling...

The ancient Tree of Life swayed slightly, green clouds flickered, and the light mist was hazy, like a series of fairy rainbows dancing, it looked magical.

At the same time, there was also a rumbling sound of Taoism, rustling around the ancient tree, as if it was emitting the original sound of the creation of the world. Changsheng Tianzun spoke again: "After destroying the Taichu Ancient Mine, I found the Divine Phoenix Immortality Elixir and the Ancient Tree of Life in it. As for the Immortality Elixir, one plant is enough, and it is useless to eat more, so I gave the Divine Phoenix to Taoist Yongjie as a thank you. As for the Ancient Tree of Life, I have also made some research experience in these years, and I hope Taoist friends will comment on it."

As he spoke, the Sword of Immortality flew over from somewhere, unleashing its ultimate power and directly cutting a wound on the trunk of the Ancient Tree of Life.

In an instant, a huge amount of life energy surged out from the tree trunk, shining with green light and surging with waves.

"It is said that the greatest secrets of the world are hidden in the immortality elixir, and this is indeed true. According to my observation, they may have a great connection with the monks, and are far more than just medicine."

Changsheng Tianzun muttered to himself and reached out to touch the wound on the tree trunk.

The next moment, a mysterious wave came from his body. Under the influence of this wave, the wound on the ancient tree of life was slowly healing.

"Use the word 'zhe' to try to repair the immortality potion?"

Chen Wu's eyes flashed with surprise for a moment, but with his vision he could naturally see the mystery in it.

The "zhe" secret was originally a sacred method for healing cultivators themselves, but the Eternal Heavenly Venerable actually pushed it to this extent, using his own great principles to drive the elixir of immortality to repair injuries.

This is quite surprising. If handled properly, perhaps it can help you transform yourself into a better person.

After all, the elixir of immortality is essentially a fallen immortal.

"You are very skillful, Taoist Changsheng!" Chen Wu praised.

"You are too kind, fellow Daoist. Actually, the effect of the word 'zhe' secret on it is very limited. Minor skin injuries will be fine, but once the origin is damaged, it can only enter Nirvana. For this reason, I dare not use too heavy a hand, so this is the only gain I have." The Eternal Heavenly Venerable replied honestly.

Hearing his words, the Ancient Tree of Life rustled again and emitted bursts of light, as if accusing something.

This immortality drug is really miserable.

In the original historical trajectory, it had followed Emperor Daoyan of the Eternal Star Domain, and later drifted to the Divine Domain and was planted on the Divine Mountain.

Emperor Daoyan's biological son, Daoyi, set a plan to take back the Ancient Tree of Life after he was born, but was accidentally attacked from behind by the Six-Eared Macaque, causing the Ancient Tree of Life to split into two and almost be destroyed.

Unexpectedly, in today's mythological age, it is still so unlucky and is used as an experimental subject by the Changsheng Tianzun. Its wounds are repeatedly cut and then healed artificially in order to understand the mystery.

Although it is not life-threatening, it is definitely not easy to live like this.

Thinking in his heart, Chen Wu asked casually: "Since Taoist Changsheng showed me these, I guess I must have gained a lot from them, right?"

"Didn't Daoist friend Yongjie just ask me if I would commit suicide? My answer is this. My talent is far inferior to Daoist friend's, but I will do everything I can to survive until the day I meet the immortal." Changsheng Tianzun said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Chen Wu stared at Changsheng Tianzun and said seriously:

"So? You would kill yourself, even if it meant starting a dark turmoil, just to save your life?"

The latter did not answer, but his breathing suddenly became much heavier.

It was not until a long time later that he finally spoke, saying quietly: "As Daoyou said, I want to live. Whether it's killing myself or starting a dark turmoil, there is nothing I can't do."

"You should feel lucky that the person standing in front of you now is me, not someone else."

Chen Wu sneered. If it was the Void Emperor or the Sun Saint Emperor who were present, they might have already taken action.

Chen Wu did not have much obsession with protecting all living beings. He just regretted losing a potential fellow Taoist.

Chen Wu actually had high expectations for the Eternal Heavenly Master. After all, he was the first person to attain enlightenment after him and Cao Yusheng.

This visit is a test for Changsheng Tianzun. If it meets Chen Wu's expectations, the experience of transformation will be shared with him, just like Cao Yusheng.

It’s just a pity that Changsheng Tianzun did not transcend his original historical trajectory.

The road to immortality in the mortal world is so lonely, and only loneliness accompanies you all the way.

Now Chen Wu finally gave up. He felt a kind of fear from Changsheng Tianzun, a fear of time and death.

Without a heart that seeks to live in the face of death, how can one achieve nirvana and create a new life between life and death?
"Just take care of yourself."

After saying that, Chen Wu turned around and prepared to leave. His next stop was Kunlun Mountain.

At this moment, the sacred medicinal field where the ancient tree of life was rooted suddenly cracked, and the old tree suddenly broke free from the soil.

Its roots were strong and vigorous, and the two thickest ones supported the ground like human legs, and then ran over.

A faint mental fluctuation was transmitted, and the ancient tree of life made an unexpected decision. It wanted to follow Chen Wu away.
