My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 241 A New World Within Oneself

In the long river of time, a terrifying aura spread, and every immortal who takes a step towards transcendence feels at this moment that an ancient, transcendent being was born before that distant past.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Bai Chijing, on your escape!"

The voice of the Celestial Lord of the Great World arrived from the depths of time, flowing backwards.

He and Bai Chijing could be considered to be from the same era. Although he was a newborn, he still bore traces of his past. Therefore, even though he and Bai Chijing did not have direct interaction, they were still aware of each other.

"Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Hongshi. It is truly a great honor to meet you in this era." Bai Chijing's voice also traveled through the long river of time to the current era of the Immortal Lords, including Hongshi.

Congratulations, fellow Daoist!

"Fellow Daoist was once a true Banhu, and today you have taken another step beyond. If you have the time, I hope you will allow me to visit you and learn a thing or two. I would be grateful if you would be so kind as to give me your guidance."

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Bai Chijing! It is truly a great blessing that another one has transcended the mundane realm."

"Congratulations, fellow Daoist! It is truly unexpected that you were born in such an ancient era, and that such a great evil still exists in this era."

Four congratulatory voices followed closely behind, echoing through the long river of time.

Bai Chijing is currently at the beginning of his cultivation, while the five near-immortals who have transcended the Dao in one step are naturally in the extremely distant future.

Because this is a time that belongs exclusively to Shirochi Kei.

Each immortal lord who transcends the mundane can appear at the same point in time, but their true forms are actually at different points in time.

After transcending, each immortal lord has their own timeline.

However, since they all come from the same system, they are able to temporarily negotiate their respective timelines to achieve a meeting.

The time in which Bai Chijing exists is precisely this distant past.

That was also the beginning of his career!

At the foot of Tujian Mountain, the awakened youth's figure gradually faded away, but not disappeared; rather, his existence had transcended everything in this world.

It is the end of destiny, and the beginning of all things.

The end is one, the beginning is only me!
A mark belonging only to Bai Chijing leaped out and landed on the system of near-immortal, and also on the system of ten heavenly ranks.

Thus, the seventh immortal who transcended the Dao in one step was born.

However, unlike in the past, the first immortal master to transcend in one step has always been a little girl. But now, with Bai Chijing's transcendence, he directly surpassed Ling Jia and became the first one to transcend in one step in this world!
"Why?"

A certain young girl immediately protested.

It was clearly she who created this ten-level celestial system that allows one to transcend in one step.

How could it be that in the blink of an eye, all of this has turned out to be a stepping stone for someone else? You must know, this first place represents her potential to transcend to the second step!

At this level, all external forces are useless. Elixirs, treasures, and even the power of others cannot give one any chance of breaking through.

Only by perfecting this ten-level Heavenly Rank system can there truly be a possibility of taking the second step of transcendence. And now, this tremendous opportunity has fallen from her hands to Bai Chijing's hands without warning.

Upon reaching the level of Ling Jia, her mind was connected with the entire void. Therefore, at this moment, as this little girl began to complain, a mysterious sensation arose within the void. This was not the will of heaven and earth, nor the will of all living beings, but rather the transcendent system of the Ten Heavenly Ranks resonating with the void.

As a result, the little girl who was originally in second place was now tied for first place with a certain scoundrel.

After all, the founder deserves respect, no matter what.

"You, you, you..."

At the foot of Tujian Mountain, Bai Chijing sensed these changes but didn't care; he just found them amusing.

He was extremely surprised that this transcendent system placed him first, since all traces of his past cultivation had long since vanished.

However, Bai Chijing had ultimately transcended worldly concerns, so he quickly understood why.

In the past, this little girl had been practicing the "Ten Greedy Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture" that he created, hoping to find traces of his existence.

This also meant that after she created the Ten Heavenly Ranks Transcendence System, there were numerous traces corresponding to him within this system. Originally, if he hadn't reappeared and hadn't embarked on the path of transcendence, these traces could have been ignored. However, once Bai Chijing transcended in one step, these traces naturally corresponded directly to him.

"Thank you very much," Bai Chijing said immediately, his heart filled with gratitude.

An incredibly long time ago, when he first began his cultivation, it was this little girl who helped him. Later, he surpassed her and helped her break free from her shackles, and now, it is this little girl who is helping him again.

They supported each other and relied on each other.

Once Bai Chijing was revived, he was able to easily transcend his past, thanks not only to his past accumulation but also to the traces that corresponded to Ling Jia, the first person in the story.

Ling Jia was able to break free from the state of "false Banhu" and avoid being trapped in the endless cycle of creation, entirely thanks to Bai Chijing's later ability to turn the impossible into the possible, forcibly sweeping across the entire Banhu realm with an unstoppable realm.

It can be said that the two have always complemented each other.

First Ling Jia helped Bai Chi Jing achieve their goals back then, and Bai Chi Jing later helped First Ling Jia achieve theirs in return. And now, the two have helped each other achieve their goals again.

After all, without what Bai Chijing left behind, it would be incredibly difficult for Ling Jia to create a transcendent system.

She is far inferior to Bai Chijing back then.

Although this young girl's talent is undeniably exceptional, this extraordinary talent exists within a specific framework. For someone with Ling Jia's exceptional abilities, transcending this framework is extremely difficult.

If you look closely at this system of transcendence through the ten heavenly steps, you can see traces of the "Ten Greedy and Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture" in many places. Starting from the seventh heavenly step, the practice of using oneself as the seed of the Dao is essentially a false claim of Heaven's will to nourish oneself.

The "Ten Greedy and Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture" is indeed just a Heavenly Dao Immortal Explanation. Although Heavenly Dao Immortal Explanations are rarer than those of near-Dao Immortals, how many near-Dao Immortals are there?
Therefore, the number of Heavenly Dao Immortal Interpretations is actually quite large.

However, of all those interpretations of the Heavenly Dao, only Bai Chijing successfully turned the impossible into the possible, because the essence of the "Ten Greedy and Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture" is to transcend.

All of this is for the sake of creating a new world for myself.
