Chapter 312: Rebirth: I'm an Old Man (The End)

The imprint left by Dongfang Yunxing on the world, like a mirage, is slowly disappearing.
The characteristics left by the True Immortal within the Heavenly Fate Pearl are replacing Dongfang Yunxing.
Su Chen closed his eyes.
He, an ordinary mortal, by chance, arrived in this magnificent fantasy world.
Fear, loneliness...
His loved ones died tragically, his lover passed away, and his ideals withered.
Only the obsession with martial arts remained.
He didn't have Dongfang Yunxing's luck, he didn't have an old man, he didn't have the Heavenly Fate Pearl, and he didn't have any heaven-defying techniques.
All he could rely on was the endless cycle of immortality.
Like a mayfly, he struggled bitterly in the river of fate.
Each time, he stirred up insignificant ripples.
To become a King...to become an Emperor...to become a Venerable...to become a Saint...to become a Supreme Emperor!
These are not the end.
He, Su Chen, was about to ascend step by step to the highest realm in this mortal world!
To become an immortal!
Now,
the hope of becoming an immortal was right before his eyes!
The experiences of seventeen lifetimes
could not be summarized by a mere "long years"?
Su Chen opened his eyes.
He saw the pain on Dongfang Yunxing's face gradually subside.
Suddenly, countless white rays of light surged from the Heavenly Fate Pearl, merging with Dongfang Yunxing from all directions.
Ten thousand rays transformed into dragons, each holding the Heavenly Pearl in its mouth.
A span of time shattered instantly, the River of Time splitting into two parts.
Although this was only a span of time within the Immortal Ascension Ground,
it still attracted overwhelming punishment.
Countless karmic punishments crashed down upon Su Chen. If Emperor-level beings still existed within the River of Time, they would surely have seen
a towering figure, his upright form bathed in white light.
"Why did you stop me?"
"Isn't this the outcome you wanted?"
The Heavenly Fate Pearl seemed to possess consciousness.
The pale hair obscured Su Chen's face,
leaving only a cold voice:
"I merely wanted to... erase your last trace. The final victor will still be me."
A laugh emanated from within the Heavenly Fate Pearl: "Interesting..."
"Your choice truly exceeded this Immortal Lord's expectations; it's the greatest variable. Is this the illusory future this Immortal Lord has foreseen?"
Within the Heavenly Fate Pearl, an even more terrifying, boundless immortal light surged forth—the aura of destiny accumulated over billions of years.
The True Immortal within the Heavenly Fate Pearl still harbored a trump card!
"If I hadn't been tricked, perhaps I would have spared someone as interesting as you."
"But now, I must attain the Immortal Throne in the Void Sea."
Su Chen calmly said, "You cannot. You have been erased, leaving only a wisp of 'immortal' aura residing within the Heavenly Fate Pearl."
The being within the Heavenly Fate Pearl, claiming to be an Immortal Lord, remained unperturbed.
"An Immortal... is still an Immortal. Even with only a wisp of aura remaining, you are still an Immortal. You cannot kill me."
"If you had continued to reside within the Heavenly Fate Pearl, perhaps I would have been more wary of you. But you chose the most foolish method, severing your connection with the Heavenly Fate Pearl."
Su Chen smiled.
"Why don't you take a look? What is this?"
Above Su Chen's head, a transparent pearl floated, endless immortal energy flowing within it, exuding an aura of immortality.
"This is..."
The Immortal Lord's voice within the Heavenly Fate Pearl changed.
Within the Immortal Pearl above Su Chen's head, there was actually a trace of 'immortal' aura.
In the Endless Immortal Land, the immortal spirits cast into the Immortal Ascension Ground all possessed a trace of 'immortal' aura.
Emperor Taihao refined all the immortal spirits of the Endless Land, transforming their 'immortal' auras into a trace of the characteristics of an Endless Immortal.
Emperor Taihao desired to become an immortal.
Unfortunately, he was not destined for it.
Su Chen was also not destined to become an Endless Immortal.
However, for Su Chen, the 'immortal' aura within the Immortal Pearl was enough.
Only an 'immortal' could annihilate another 'immortal'.
He merged himself into the Immortal Pearl.
The auras of the two 'immortals' intertwined and circulated, evolving endlessly.
From endless life to annihilation.
"You fool...you actually want to perish together with this Immortal Lord? Is it worth it?"
"Your strength has touched a taboo, it will obliterate your true spirit, condemning you to eternal damnation!"
The Immortal Lord of the Heavenly Fate Pearl was no longer calm.
Su Chen was even more ruthless than he had imagined.
He actually merged himself with the Immortal Pearl, attempting to use the aura of a True Immortal from the Endless Immortal Land to obliterate him.
But an Immortal from the Endless Land is still an Immortal; how could a mere wisp of immortal energy be so easily controlled?
"I will not die...even if my true spirit is annihilated, after countless tribulations, I will return, to once again seize the opportunity to become an Immortal."
"But you, once this wisp of aura dissipates, you will never have another chance to escape. The forces you have offended will not let you go."
Su Chen's soul shattered, wisps of white flame burning within his fragmented soul body, slowly incinerating him into nothingness.
An unknown amount of time passed.
The world fell silent.
Time stood still, and all realms were reduced to ruins.
Another endless cycle of time passed.
New beings gradually appeared in the world, beginning their cultivation and embarking on new paths.
Powerful beings began to transcend.
They too walked the path to immortality.
Within the land of immortality, another cycle began.
"That is..."
Countless eras had passed.
A powerful being transcended the river of time.
He... glimpsed a human body!
Lying quietly within the river of time.
"That...could it be the corpse of an 'immortal'?"
Just as the powerful being was speculating,
the 'corpse' moved.
He slowly sat up.
The entire land of immortality experienced a violent upheaval.
The powerful transcendent being discovered that he was gradually disappearing.
Time was flowing backward.
Eastern Cloud Star reversed everything, seemingly searching for something.
But...
No matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find that figure.
In the blink of an eye, he could resurrect countless people lost in the river of time.
He could turn the Immortal Ascension Ground into any point in his memory.
He was the supreme controller.
But... Dongfang Yunxing felt something was missing.
The Immortal Ascension Ground was rapidly shrinking.
In the hand of a tall figure, it transformed into a black sphere.
In that boundless space, congratulations and chants resounded.
"Master..."
A clear tear fell onto this space,
like... falling on a calm lake, creating ripples.
He, Dongfang Yunxing, had become an immortal...
