I am a living immortal.

Su Mu, where are you?!

This call seemed to transcend time and space. Within a giant cocoon, Su Mu's brow furrowed slightly, feeling the pressure that spanned heaven and earth. The old goat's call was neither the first nor the last.

Many people who knew Su Mu or had a brief encounter with her couldn't help but mutter in their hearts. The creatures of this era used every possible means and were determined to do so, even under the threat of death from Di Jun.

They sacrificed everything, risked everything, simply to prevent this era from completely disappearing. They are the living creatures of this era, and will rise and fall with it.

Now it's the final moment, and it's your turn.

Su Mu...

Su Mu, it's time to wake up. What you have experienced, what you are familiar with has become strange, you will not allow it to be destroyed at this time, right?

These calls echoed in the narrow space of the closed road, waiting for his response.

Unimaginable changes are taking place in Su Mu.

Chen Dong led the big man out of a completely different path, bringing a ray of light into this narrow space.

It was this ray of light that tore apart the endlessly repetitive path. Su Mu was reflecting on his life, walking and walking, all the way to its beginning, that baby abandoned in front of the Taoist temple. He watched his master limping down the mountain, clearly drunk, as he staggered past the baby and pushed open the temple door.

Su Mu, who was standing by, suddenly laughed when she saw this. This old man really hadn't changed at all.

"Speaking of which, old man, these past few years have been one thing after another, like they're chasing me forward. I said I'd find you back then, but now that I've found you, I haven't let you enjoy yourself much. Now I have to ask you to help me again. How unfilial of you... old man."

As if he had heard Su Mu's words, or perhaps noticed the baby he had neglected, the old man stopped and looked back. The candlelight shone on the old man's face, which was surprisingly similar to Chen Dong's.

The old man stared intently. The baby-like Su Mu remained silent, her bright eyes filled with curiosity as she surveyed this new world. The adult Su Mu stood aside, a smile on her face.

The old man was stunned for a few seconds, hesitated for a moment, sighed, and the drunkenness in his eyes dissipated a lot.

He took a step back and turned around, walking towards the baby. Just like the scene Su Mu saw when she came into this world, the old man carefully picked up the baby and touched the baby's nose.

The baby's face was wrinkled and full of vigilance.

The old man was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "You are really clever. Since you were left here, it is fate that we met. You should follow me from now on. As long as I am here, I will take care of you."

As he said this, he carefully carried Su Mu into the Taoist temple.

Su Mu murmured, "Yes, as long as you are here, I will be taken care of."

When the door of the Taoist temple was completely closed, the space began to blur. Su Mu turned around and was about to leave. He had stayed long enough and it was time to go back. But the moment he turned around...

The surrounding space did not completely dissipate, but instead formed into a silent and deep space, which was extremely dark.

Su Mu stopped and looked at this strange space in surprise.

Only the sounds of intermittent conversations could be heard in this space.

"Let's... make a bet... how about..."

“What bet…”

"I'll bet that I can make the world take a different path..."

“Why should I bet with you…”

"Because this is a mutual achievement... Don't you also want to see if the world will be different if I say so... You can be liberated, and I can also..."

“Oh~ How interesting…”

Su Mu turned around and met two pairs of eyes. One was incredibly familiar; it was his own, but this time he was wearing a tracksuit, an outfit both familiar and unfamiliar. The other was a young woman in a long, wide-sleeved dress. Her eyes seemed to hold the world. She tilted her head and looked at Su Mu.

“So, have you found a different way?”

Su Mu nodded, then ignored the two of them and strode towards the dark deep sky.

"I am not a celestial being, but a mortal in the mortal world. I am also a resident immortal. Of course, I will not let this era be destroyed!!"

With that, the entire space shattered like a mirror, and the light filtering through the cracks filled the space ahead. Su Mu's journey from darkness to light was a single step, a single step that transcended the chaotic cocoon that had plagued him.

Su Mu returned with a clear and gentle laugh.

.........

In this world, the war continues. All the creatures of this era, despite the immense pressure from Emperor Jun, continue to fight with grace, determination, and recklessness. The morale boosted by Chen Dong's arrival was completely shattered by Emperor Jun.

Even Chen Dong had to face the threat of a peak-level being, and two half-step peak-level beings had to fight to the death. This time, Kunpeng was no longer playing around like before, but instead showed his true ability to avoid any more trouble.

Bai Ze and Old Goat were no match for each other to begin with, and now, even more so, they didn't retreat a single step to protect Chen Dong. Even with half their bodies bruised and thick blood oozing from their mouths, neither of them took a single step back. They knew that if they retreated, it would be the end.

"You guys are really... stubborn! Then let's die together!" Kunpeng attacked with all his strength, and the dark tide covered the sky and the sun, determined to swallow up all obstacles.

The old goat watched all this, one hand vanishing along with half his body. The other hand drooped limply to the ground, a dazed look in his eyes. This was the final blow… Thinking this, he suddenly clenched his dangling hand, and a radiance gathered within it.

Just then!!!

A figure walked past him and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to me."

The fluttering white clothes made the old goat completely exhale the air stuck in his throat, and this time his whole body was truly relaxed.

“You’re back.”

"yes"

"very nice."

"I let you slack off most of the time, but will you remember this time?" Su Mu raised her hand and slid it upwards while speaking. The surging dark tide stopped for a moment, then turned into a sweet rain that rolled back from the sky.

The rain fell from the sky, offering a gift to the whole world. The drops of water, imbued with spiritual energy, slapped Kunpeng's face, leaving him stunned. He subconsciously said, "What?"

Su Mu had already come to his side: "Go and stay in eternal silence."

At that moment, Kunpeng truly experienced what it meant to have one's words followed by actions. Before Kunpeng could react, the space before him shifted in the blink of an eye, leaving him no time to react at all, and he even felt a sense of disconnection.

Before Kunpeng could breathe a sigh of relief.

Two figures had already arrived in front of him, and one of them said, "Hey, rare guest."

Kunpeng sweatdropped: "You are..."

These two people were the Heavenly Emperor and the Holy Lord who were trying to find a way out of the Origin Land. They did not answer Kunpeng's question, but slowly said, "Come on, little bird, tell us what the situation is like outside now."

The Saint Monarch snapped his fingers, making a deafening sound. The Emperor of Heaven wore a solemn expression as the divine system diagram unfolded behind him. If Kunpeng made any unusual movement, they would attack without hesitation. They couldn't defeat the current Emperor Jun, so how could they not deal with you?

.........

The situation in the outside world completely reversed because of Su Mu's arrival.

Su Mu crossed the sky in just a few steps, tore apart the giant Fusang tree that spanned the universe, and went to the time.

"Now, it's time to settle the accounts, Di Jun."

These simple words truly changed the course of the war. The refreshing rain gave everyone a sigh of relief, including Chen Dong.

When Mirage Dragon faced Chang Xi, his face was full of disbelief.

“Is this your final trump card???”

"Why else would I hold you back even though I know I'm no match for you? Is that fun?" Mirage Dragon was not without pressure facing Chang Xi. After all, his foundation was not up to par. But now, the two poles have reversed.

"You should be the one who has the headache. After all, we have another one on our side!"

Before Changxi could react, a huge palm came out of nowhere, and the thirteen moons were pierced through like paper. Changxi was once again knocked down from the sky and rolled in the dust.

After Chen Dong made this strike, he looked at Tian Wu who was being surrounded and blocked by the dragon clan. His meaning was very clear.

Tian Wu's head, which had just been raised, lowered again.

Di Jun was the first to notice Su Mu's arrival. His golden eyes fell on Su Mu, his gaze indifferent as he raised his intact hand.

No nonsense, just get started.

The surrounding space and time were exiled, time constantly accelerating, and then turned into a ruthless river of time that crashed into Su Mu. Space tried to peel him out of this world, and time kept washing over him, forward and backward, trying to erase his existence.

This is just the beginning.

Di Jun raised one hand, one hand was heat death, the other hand was absolute zero.

Su Mu was greeted by absolute silence. All laws, concepts, and the foundations of existence were wiped out by the true meaning of absolute zero.

Faced with such a deadly attack.

Su Mu smiled calmly, emitting a flash of light that extinguished the heat death. Then, with a breath, he activated the locked laws and broke through absolute zero. Time and space were powerless against him.

"It's useless. Although you control the world to a certain extent, nothing in the world can do anything to me. You will never understand. Come!"

Su Mu waved her hand.

Sitting atop the Fusang tree, possessing the status of a Heavenly Dao, Di Jun uncontrollably arrived beside him. It came instantly, incomprehensible, inexplicable, and beyond comprehension. What realm was Su Mu currently in?

However, the following action made Di Jun's absolute rationality understand that this was beyond the world's understanding and was truly transcendent.

Su Mu casually waved his hand, and the entire world began to retreat, returning to a single point of light in his hand. The world had never hatched, and spiritual energy had not spread. What existed in his palm was the seed of creation.

This wasn't just a small world, but the real world, the world they lived in. At this moment, it was gathered into Su Mu's hands. Life, time, space, concepts, laws, all returned to their original origin.

"It was this tiny point of light that created that complex and beautiful world. Now it is in my hands. And how can you, a worldless Heavenly Dao, defeat me?"

"You lose, Di Jun."

This is both an affirmation and a verdict.

Su Mu ignored the bewildered Di Jun and flung the light point out again. The world was born once more, following the same trajectory as before. A single breath of energy transformed the world, each breath returning to its original state, evolving flawlessly until it stopped at the moment Di Jun was about to flip the table.

The war began and ended.

When all beings awoke once more, it was as if they had just dreamed. The powerful remembered, the ordinary forgot. Everything in the world had been set right. This didn't mean nothing had happened; everyone retained their memories of that time. This was their merit, undeniable.

But sometimes, excessive pressure isn't a good thing for ordinary people. They'll remember when they want to, and forget when they want to. This is the choice Su Mu offers everyone.

The choice is entirely up to you.

And Di Jun was no longer the same Di Jun as before. The state of the Heavenly Dao was irreversible, and Su Mu would not allow the culprit of all this to remain as he was.

Su Mu looked at the dazed Saint Monarch and Heavenly Emperor and said, "It's over. From now on, how this era will develop will be left to this era. What do you think?"

Before the Saint Sovereign and the Heavenly Emperor could respond, a voice rang out: "Yes."

A young girl jumped out from nowhere and replied, smiling faintly at the Holy Lord and the Emperor of Heaven.

The two men were facing a formidable enemy, and had no idea how this girl got here, and they were completely unaware of it.

Su Mu nodded to comfort her, then jokingly revealed her identity: "So Tiandao is really a girl."

The Emperor of Heaven and the Holy Lord were shocked.

Tiandao waved his hand, and the two disappeared into time in shock.

"Well, I mean what I say." Suddenly, an antique house appeared above time. The two sat down face to face, and Su Mu reached out to pour a cup of tea for the girl in front of him.

The girl took a sip of the teacup, glanced at Di Jun, who had already lost his self-esteem, and asked, "Do you know why I left?"

Su Mu shook her head.

"A fellow traveler invited me to visit his world. It seems to be very lively there."

"Do you know where my hometown is?" Su Mu asked the question she had always wanted to ask.

"I don't know. I only intercepted your soul by chance. The void is vast, and the worlds are far more numerous than the sun, moon, and stars. Those returning innate gods have traveled for ten thousand years, but they haven't strayed far from this world. The fluctuations of the void can even out their journeys of thousands of years."

"Only a few of them can be considered to have traveled far. If you're lucky, you might even meet one."

"So, do you want to go and have a look together? Fellow travelers."

“Are you really okay with leaving this world?”

"Well, doesn't He have it? He can take charge. There won't be much trouble. Besides, didn't you say that the future of this era should be left to this era itself?"

“I agree.”

"The war is over, but the times will not stop. Whether it is good or bad, they have the final say."

End of the full text.

………………

This book has been written for nearly a year. First of all, I would like to thank all the readers for their support. Of course, I also know that this book has many problems, such as typos (I have corrected all my @ ones, thank you), such as weakness in the middle stage and procrastination in the later stage. In fact, the procrastination in the later stage cannot be blamed on the author. This book has a rough outline. I want all the paths to appear in this decisive battle. Originally, I wanted to represent the human path with the Yan Dynasty, but then I thought that the Yan Dynasty was too weak. If it was deliberately elevated, it would be too abrupt, so there was the Han Dynasty. Moreover, when the author wrote that there were still two hundred years left, he did not grasp the time well, but the decisive battle was about to begin, so he had to blur the time. The Han Dynasty plot was not in the outline. In fact, there are still holes that have not been filled, such as A Quiet Place, but as the title says, the end is also the beginning. Su Mu's story is over, but this era has just begun. How the future will be controlled by the creatures of this era themselves.

Overall it's not a bad ending.

It is not easy to write an invincible novel, especially when there are so many excellent works of this type before. The author has tried his best to come up with something new and has really racked his brains. Finally, I would like to thank all the readers again for your support. There may or may not be a sequel.

As for the new book, the author has a lot of ideas but nothing has been finalized. The author wants to write cyberpunk + space opera + Cthulhu, or urban imagination plus foundation, weird cultivation of immortals is also fine, and there is also a big stage of all worlds, the collision between technology and cultivation, magic and superpowers, martial arts, genes, special technology, and so on. I haven’t thought about it yet, and I’m not sure if it will be something else. It all depends on the author’s flash of inspiration. There is no outline yet, so stay tuned. Finally, I wish you all a happy National Day, and we will meet again if we are lucky.
