[Naruto] Cao Ya laughed:
"My strength has increased again, and now I am no longer afraid of Nagato, the leader of the Akatsuki organization."
In the world of Naruto, with the Six Paths level not appearing, he truly has nothing to fear at this moment.
Even if he is a Kage-level expert, the relative strength between them will only be known after they fight.
Even if he were to lose to a Kage-level opponent, he was confident that he wouldn't lose by too much.
There's no problem with saving your life.
The grand plan for Konoha to unify the ninja world is about to be put on the agenda.
He's not like Hashirama Senju or Naruto Uzumaki. Since he has the ability to unify the world and end wars, he will put it into action.
A divided world is always under the shadow of war, while a unified world, though divided, will always be unified again.
In particular, the ninja world already had the Otsutsuki clan as an enemy.
Whether it's the Otsutsuki on the moon or the Otsutsuki in the depths of space, in the true sense.
Everyone is eyeing this ninja world covetously.
He felt a great responsibility on his shoulders.
Cao Ya, from novels such as "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils," "The Return of the Condor Heroes," "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer," "Dragon Raja," "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles," "Detective Conan," and "Enjoyment Tutoring Street," is basically at the pinnacle of his respective world and no longer has much need for power.
Besides Cao Ya from [Naruto], there are also Cao Ya from [Global Martial Arts], [Mysterious Resurgence], [Peerless], and [Primordial Era].
In their respective worlds, they have not yet reached their peak; in fact, they are still far from it.
Even the slightest progress is something to be happy about.
In particular, the situations in their respective worlds are either about to unfold or have already begun.
The situation is constantly changing, and undercurrents are surging.
Being in that situation puts them under a lot of pressure.
When a huge wave crashes in, who cares about their life or death?
They still have to find their own way to survive.

【Primordial Era】.
The ancient continent, the Shang Dynasty.
This is an unnamed hill. Cao Ya searched for sacred mountains and rivers but could not find them. He happened to obtain a fragmented secret manual, so he simply chose a mountain peak and went into seclusion to cultivate diligently.
Despite being called an unnamed mountain, it is actually filled with ancient trees reaching for the sky, shrouded in a hazy, spiritual atmosphere and swirling clouds. Although there are no cranes dancing in the air, it is peaceful and serene, like a fairyland on earth.
After Pangu created the world, the three races of dragon, phoenix, and qilin fought for supremacy and subsequently declined. Hongjun attained enlightenment, and Luohou was defeated. Later, the Zixiao Palace gave three sermons, and three thousand guests from the mortal world gathered there.
The Lich Age lasted for countless years before finally coming to an end.
Six sages emerged together, Houtu initiated the cycle of reincarnation, and the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man were separated.
Humanity began to rise, and after the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, humanity flourished. Now the Xia Dynasty has ended, and it is the Shang Dynasty's golden age of prosperity and glory.
However, if Cao Ya remembers correctly, this is the era of King Wu Yi of Shang. The main difference between this era and the future last king of the Shang Dynasty, King Zhou of Shang, is the two generations of Shang kings, Wen Ding and Di Yi.
He was born during the reign of King Wu Ding, the height of the Shang Dynasty. After realizing what kind of world he had transmigrated to, Cao Ya had the idea of seeking immortality and enlightenment.
Growing up in a mountain village, Cao Ya went out to travel as he grew older. Decades passed, and he gained nothing. Helpless, he returned to his hometown. His parents were old and frail. After serving them, they passed away. Alone and without any ties, Cao Ya gritted his teeth and made a tough decision to go out again, this time with the determination to succeed or die trying.
Fortunately, this time he accidentally obtained a fragmented immortal manual called "The Fragment of the One Yuan Golden Elixir".
This is a book on alchemy.
Cao Ya was overjoyed and diligently cultivated in a secluded place. He made progress and, after several decades, broke through to the peak of the Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness realm.
Although he is still far from becoming an immortal, lifespan is no longer an obstacle for him.
In the primordial world, cultivation realms are divided into: refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, gathering emptiness and uniting with the Dao, celestial immortal, mysterious immortal, golden immortal, great Luo, quasi-saint, and primordial saint.
The stages of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation, and Spirit Refining and Returning to Emptiness, are equivalent to the half-step Outer Realm, the Nine Heavens of Outer Realm, and the half-step Dharma Body of the [Supreme Being].
The stages of "Gathering Emptiness and Uniting with the Dao" and "Celestial Immortal" are equivalent to the "Supreme Being of All Time" realm of human immortals.
The Xuanxian is equivalent to the Earth Immortal Realm, which is considered the highest level in the world.
The Golden Immortal is roughly equivalent to the Celestial Immortal realm, which is considered the highest level of immortality.
The Great Luo corresponds to legend, the Quasi-Saint corresponds to creation, and the Primordial Saint corresponds to the other shore.
These are two equally high-level super-worlds.
The Six Sages of Heaven and Earth, as well as the Goddess Houtu in the Underworld, are all Primordial Sages.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun was the strongest being in the [Primordial World].
Luo Hou, Yang Mei, and others were all names Cao Ya had never even heard of, given his low level. If he hadn't been a transmigrator, he would never have known the names of such powerful figures.
The Fire Cloud Cave, a sacred site for the human race, is where the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, along with some ancient sages, suppress the human race's fortune, ensuring its enduring prosperity.
Those are all realms of Great Luo or Quasi-Saint.
Each Shang king, during his reign, possessed the power of at least a Golden Immortal, controlling the imperial dragon energy and the dynasty's fortune.
When Pan Geng moved the capital to Yin and Wu Ding rose to power, he even possessed the power of the Great Luo, dominating the four seas and eight wastelands, and the boundless regions.
When King Wu Ding died, his soul returned to the Fire Cloud Cave. The Shang king succeeded him, and his power gradually declined, but he was still no less powerful than a peak Golden Immortal.
Otherwise, how could the Shang Dynasty have allowed a group of Taoist practitioners to serve it?
Even if it's just a disciple from several generations later.
It wasn't just that their power was strong enough, but also the influence of the Fire Cloud Cave and the rise of the human race. Under the influence of these factors, many disciples of various schools of thought, such as the Immortal Path, Buddhist Path, Demon Path, Monster Path, and Witch Path, entered the Yin Shang Dynasty or its eight hundred subordinate lords.
It should be noted that the most renowned members of the Chan Sect today are only the Twelve Golden Immortals.
Although Guang Chengzi and Randeng have already attained the Great Luo realm, the rest of the group still only have the Golden Immortal cultivation level.
This comparison also shows the strength of the Shang Dynasty; it could hardly be considered weak.
Of course, the strongest force in the world right now is the Jie Sect founded by the Tongtian Sect Master. Ten thousand immortals come to pay homage, shaking the entire universe, and all kinds of experts emerge one after another.
The disciples under his tutelage, including Daoist Duobao, Zhao Gongming, Holy Mother Jinling, and Lady Yunxiao, were all great supernatural beings at the Great Luo realm.
The remaining immortals include countless Golden Immortals, Mystic Immortals, and Celestial Immortals.
If you don't become an immortal, you can't even become a nominal disciple.
Cao Ya is only at the peak of the Refining Spirit Returning to Emptiness cultivation level, which is very weak in any force.
However, the method he cultivates seems to belong to the lineage of Taiqing Laozi. If he can cultivate to become an immortal by relying on this incomplete book, there may be hope that he can be introduced into the sect.
But it was only a very faint glimmer of hope.
The Taiqing lineage has always been small, even smaller than the Chan sect, and far less numerous than the Jie sect.
Let alone becoming a Celestial Immortal, even becoming a Mystic Immortal doesn't guarantee being formally accepted as a disciple. However, the chances of becoming a Golden Immortal increase dramatically.
After all, at this time, most of the second-generation disciples of the three religions were still at the level of Xuanxian or Jinxian, and only a few powerful ones had attained the level of Daluo.
Millions of years later, through long periods of cultivation and countless trials, the situation among the three religions was greatly changed.
Of course, this seems to have nothing to do with the Jie Sect.
"Huh? You're from the lineage of Master Taiqing?" Suddenly, a melodious female voice rang in Cao Ya's ears.
"Who?" Cao Ya's heart raced, and he subconsciously gathered his magical power.
He was in his own cave dwelling, which he had managed for decades and had set up with layers of formations!
