While decaying the body of a monk, the corruption will also separate out the filth that is born and accumulated in the monk's body.

Although Shen Lian used the power of chaos to cleanse his body, his body still contained acquired attributes. And because chaos was so mysterious, it hindered the release of acquired impurities from the body.

To put it simply, even the filth in his body, which has been baptized by the chaotic energy day and night, is actually the same in grade, which makes it no different from undergoing the tribulation at this moment to cutting his own flesh.

This situation made Shen Lian very conflicted. It was naturally easy for the Heavenly Dao to deal with him, but the baptism process was a bit slow. He had been lingering on the periphery of the body for more than two thousand years. It was still unknown how long it would take for the deeper flesh, blood, internal organs, and bone marrow to be baptized.

Moreover, this level of baptism may not be able to cleanse the body thoroughly. His previous foundation was so strong. If he just casually went through the final transformation process before becoming an immortal, all the previous efforts would be in vain.

He pinched the round woodworms on his body, just like pinching bubbles, which was very fun.

"We need to think of something, otherwise this will be too slow."

Shen Lian murmured to himself that the foul smell on his body was a product of the rules and could not be avoided. Moreover, in his current condition, he would stink wherever he went.

Even if you find a way to cover it up, it can only last for a while. After a long time, it will leak out, and then you will definitely be discovered that you are enduring the plague of corruption.

"God, can you show me a way?"

After much thought, Shen Lian finally prayed to God.

I think the Heavenly Dao is also reasonable. As the Heavenly Dao, it cannot lose face. Otherwise, how can it survive in the Heavenly Dao world?

…

Rumble.

At the top of the fairy world, deep in the chaotic layer, supreme pressure reverberated from the chaotic air currents, gathering into a consciousness body that manifested, flashing light madly, as many as billions of times in a single breath.

In an instant, a beam of light fell from the chaos, crossing the sky and straight into the cloud realm.

No living creature could perceive the strange beam of light, but it was like a ray of white light falling in the darkness, enveloping Shen Lian in the white light.

At the same time, Shen Lian only felt that the scene in front of him was spinning dizzyingly, and his soul seemed to be about to ascend, and his body quickly flew upwards along the beam of light.

The three realms and nine heavens of the fairy world passed by in an instant, followed by the fairyland layer and the chaos layer.

As soon as he entered the chaos, a heavy and vast aura overwhelmed him, and he felt an aura from it that was similar to the rules of chaos in his own life.

The reason why he said they were almost the same was mainly because his chaos and the chaos derived from the chaos layer were too far apart. He was like a little demon beast whose bloodline had just awakened, while the other party was already a demon ancestor.

The gap between the two sides is too big. Even though they both control the power of chaos, they each have their own characteristics and are similar.

"It is indeed impossible to hide the matter of controlling chaos from the Heavenly Dao."

Subconsciously, Shen Lian looked inward at his Dantian.

However, he discovered strangely that his 'spiritual tree root' had turned into a colorful little button-sized thing, and this state was no different from the appearance of other cultivators' spiritual roots.

As for where spiritual roots come from, in the eyes of semi-immortal cultivators, the birth of spiritual roots originated from the world tree.

The fruit on the World Tree is the universe, and the creatures born in the universe receive the blessings from the world. Spiritual roots are born in their bodies like the buds of small trees. They are of the same lineage and exist together in all worlds.

After a quick glance, Shen Lian withdrew his inner thoughts.

After passing through the chaotic layer, he found himself standing in a space shrouded by chaos. There was a vastness all around him. He subconsciously wanted to absorb the chaotic energy around him.

He found out that it was impossible and God would not give it to him.

Well, I looked up and found that the sky under the chaos suddenly became transparent.

Outside the sky boundary wall, the sky and the earth were dark, and a tree trunk like a black dragon wall meandered in the night sky.

On the dragon's body, the undulating and shriveled bark looked like dragon scales, flashing an extremely strong black light.

"This is the World Tree..."

"The World Tree also has a chaotic attribute?"

"That's right. Chaos gave rise to all things. If the World Tree wasn't chaos, how could it have given rise to realms and given rise to yin and yang and the five elements?"

Suddenly, Shen Lian came back to his senses. He even thought of his guess long ago. There were many realms on the vast world tree, and he was not the only cultivator with mutated spiritual roots.

Now, looking at the tree roots that were as majestic as a black dragon, he became even more determined in this idea.

At this moment, Shen Lian also discovered something interesting. The realm was actually hanging on the World Tree like an apple hanging on a tree, and it was even shaking a little.

The part connecting the boundary and the trunk is a slightly curved, black and slightly soft branch. Of course, the branch is very majestic and huge, and two incompatible auras collide on it.

At this moment, outside the chaotic space where Shen Lian was standing, thick chaos surged up in circles, just like wrapping a rice dumpling, layer after layer. Even though it was already airtight, it still didn't seem to stop.

It's like he can't stand being seen.

Outside of the chaos, the chaotic black dragon transformed by the immortal heavenly way was like the first ray of light that evolved from the creation of the world. It flashed through the chaos like lightning and instantly divided the chaotic layer at the top of the immortal world into two parts, just like the beginning of the world and the separation of clear and turbid.

From the separated chaos, lightning and thunder emerged, and the vast pressure swept into a storm, so magnificent that it rushed towards the depths of the chaos and crashed into a clearly divided place.

"Xianling, you actually dared to cross the boundary and attack!"

In another direction in the depths of chaos, a blood-colored python woke up from silence, and surprise flashed in its eyes as big as the sun. Waves of blood-black aura rolled out and crashed into the surging chaos tide.

For so many epochs, the corpse world has been bullying the fairy world. This is the first time that the fairy world has washed away the corpse world.

The chaotic zone at the junction of the two sides' boundaries is like a clearly divided boundary river. Even if the chaos of different energies of the two sides collide, what moves is the dividing line at the intersection of the boundary river.

In the fairy world, within the chaos, the chaotic black dragon transformed by the fairy was overlooking the corpse, and the chaotic energy rolling around was surging towards the corpse endlessly.

On the other hand, in the world of corpses, within the chaos, immortal palaces emerged and majestic immortal figures stood out.

"What is the fairy doing?"

The immortal shadow of the Star Corpse True Immortal is the largest, and even the Corpse Shedding Heavenly Dao's aura is slightly inferior.

Something must be wrong when things are out of the ordinary. The immortals and the heavenly ways have always been very honest. They only passively take beatings and have never crossed the border to provoke others. What happened this time? "That's the Immortal Who Moves Mountains!"

"The old guy is still here."

At this time, Quan Qi Zhenxian raised his eyebrows and looked over across the border.

It was discovered that in the depths of the chaos in the fairy world, in a hole like a cave, a huge giant with flesh bulging like a mountain was sitting quietly. The vast blood and energy were like a huge world, crowding inside the cave.

Even though there was a barrier between them, one could still feel the terrifying power of the immortals emanating from the cave.

"There is also the Three Eyes. This guy was not driven out of the outside world back then."

With the appearance of the Mountain-Moving Immortal in the Chaos Cave, another cave also appeared. This was an old man shrouded in a rotating Yin-Yang fish plate. He had an immortal look and a divine eye between his eyebrows, which flashed with ancient mystery.

…

In the depths of chaos in the Immortal Realm, two true immortals suddenly appeared and sat cross-legged in a cave, which frightened all the true immortals in the Corpse Transformation Realm.

Why have they not dared to overly stimulate the fairy world for so many years, but instead adopted the method of boiling a frog in warm water? It is because they are afraid of the existence of these ancient true immortals in the fairy world.

Back when the immortal's corpse was still a whole, the immortal returned to the heavenly way, which was the highest heavenly way, and established the various great worlds around it.

Under the great and inclusive power of the Supreme Heavenly Dao, there are more than twenty true immortals in the fairy world, and there are six or seven true immortals with medium combat power.

The reason why it is respectfully called Guitian Dao is because he was the last master of the Dao who controlled the two worlds. Since then, due to the division of the two worlds, there is no superior Dao in existence.

As for how many changes of the Heavenly Dao there are before returning to the Heavenly Dao, it has long been a mystery.

After returning to the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao of Immortals was divided into two. These two Heavenly Daos were also the Heavenly Daos of the previous generation of Immortals and Corpse World.

The two major heavenly ways inherited the authority after the collapse of the Guiyi Heavenly Way. Among them, the Immortal Spirit Realm occupied 50% of the authority, the Corpse Transformation Realm only inherited 40%, and the remaining 10% was the authority of the Heavenly Demon Palace.

The two divided worlds of Heaven naturally want to be reunited. After all, the pressure of the superior Heaven is obvious to all. The two sides have experienced fighting for many epochs. As for the Heavenly Demon Palace, it is a fence-sitter, wavering repeatedly between the two worlds.

After the battle, the first generation of Heavenly Dao in the era of division collapsed.

Most of the True Immortals in the current Corpse World were born in the Age of Division. As for the True Immortals born in the Age of Unification, when the two worlds separated, most of them, except for the Star Corpse True Immortals, sided with the Immortal Spirit World.

As a Star Corpse True Immortal born in the Guiyi Era, he used to be like a minion, calling everyone he met brother, but now he is the strongest True Immortal in the Corpse Transformation World.

Of course, there are more than one true immortals born in the era of returning to oneness. Excluding those who fell or left, there are also two others, Banshan and Sanyan.

Logically speaking, the Immortal Heavenly Dao of the first generation of the Split Era occupies 60% of the power of the Heavenly Dao, and is supported by two True Immortals of the Unification Era. Even if it is difficult to suppress the fence-sitter Heavenly Demon Palace and re-merge the Corpse World, there is a considerable chance of it.

However, in the first generation of the divided era, the Heavenly Dao failed and was defeated by the fence-sitter Heavenly Demon Palace.

It is normal to think about it now. For the Demon Palace that couldn't even figure out the Return to Heavenly Dao, it was not surprising that the Split Heavenly Dao failed.

After the first heavenly way of the immortals was destroyed in the era of division, the first heavenly way of the corpse world was also destroyed. It was really a coincidence.

And now, it is considered the second world of heaven in the era of the separation of immortals and corpses.

Things that happened during this period were very interesting. The Heavenly Dao of the second life of immortals imprisoned the true immortals that existed in the Guiyi era. Similarly, the true immortals born in the Heavenly Dao era of the first life were also imprisoned.

On the contrary, the Star Corpse True Immortal thrived in the Corpse Transformation Realm. Not only did he promote a True Immortal to inherit the Corpse Transformation Immortal Way, he also became like the emperor of the Corpse Transformation Realm. A scene appeared where the True Immortal was suppressing the Heavenly Way.

There is only one reason for this kind of scenario to occur, and that is that the authority of Heaven is incomplete and cannot dominate the realm.

Immortal spirits and corpse shells belong to the Twin Realms. Even if the two cannot be compared to two equal worlds after they are united, they can at least be compared to one and a half. Otherwise, the unified Heavenly Dao back then would not have been the superior Heavenly Dao.

One reason is that it is big enough.

Even though it was split into two realms, the separated Heavenly Dao is still comparable to that of a mid-level True Immortal. Without such a foundation, the two integrated worlds would have been destroyed long ago.

…

In the chaos of the fairy world, the Heavenly Chaos Dragon is coiled in the sky. In the two chaotic caves on the left and right, two old immortals from ancient times are sitting with their eyes closed, looking as if they are resting.

In the back, there were several blurry and chaotic caves looming.

At the entrances of these holes, there are lines as thin as silk, sealing the entrances tightly.

"Xianling, it seems that your wings have hardened. You dare to appear with the ancient immortals of the Guiyi era. Your current strength can suppress the realm. Aren't you afraid that someone will snatch your body of the Heavenly Dao?"

The Corpse Shedding Heavenly Dao opened its mouth, and a large amount of air current rolled up to stabilize the boundary with the fairy world.

Unfortunately, the Immortal Spirit Heavenly Dao did not respond at all. The chaotic energy swept out, rushed out of the boundary wall and began to wash the surface of the boundary wall.

The sound of "puff puff" rang out in the vast dark sky, and evil beasts ran into the darkness in panic. Those who ran slowly were directly swallowed up by the chaos.

The turbulent energy rolled out and baptized the outer realm belonging to the fairy world again.

“Boom!”

Seeing this, the Corpse Shedding Heavenly Dao also rushed out of the world. As the two different auras of Heavenly Dao collided, they brought back the Corpse Shedding World cultivators who were in the vicinity of the two worlds.

The collision between the two sides was like the vast ocean, sweeping from inside the boundary to outside the boundary, surging and lasting for a long time.

…

"ah……"

Behind the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal Realm, in a space domain wrapped in thick chaos, above Shen Lian's head, wisps of chaotic power with rare spiritual energy remaining fell from the hole above and turned into mystery and poured into his body.

This chaotic energy is different from that of the fairy world, and the hole above is not a hole that was broken in the realm, but the connection between the fairy world and the trunk of the world tree.

It is the power of chaos flowing down from the World Tree.

The rules derived from this aura are even more profound than the rules of the fairy world, making Shen Lian feel numb all over, and he turned into a shaking fairy.

The breath that was unable to cleanse his internal organs and bone marrow before has now begun to penetrate into his body. The dirt in his body that has been tempered by the power of chaos has transformed into termites with dark gold circles on their surface, which are rampaging through his body.

The bark beetles fell one by one, and when they landed at the feet, they turned into black water with a strong stench.

Shen Lian stood in the black water. At first it was just a small puddle, but later it turned into a black rotten lake that submerged his ankles.

The termites were all over his body, just like pulling a poisonous sore out to the bone marrow. His whole body was twisted in the black water. He raised his hands and reached directly into his body, but every time he moved, the flesh and blood on his body would fall off and turn into rot.

The breath descending from above floated and swayed, and when it fell on Shen Lian's head, it was like a knife piercing his heart.

In the end, he simply held his breath and gave up all resistance. Resistance had to be endured anyway, so he might as well let the termites eat him clean.

"World Tree, why is it so old and dull? There is no vitality at all."

In order to withstand the disaster of corruption, Shen Lian shifted his will and looked upwards.

As he was baptized by the falling chaotic aura, he found that he had developed an affinity with the World Tree and could even feel the state of the World Tree.

He had seen the dead branches and leafless state of the World Tree before, but that was just a simple sight. Now he could feel the withering of the World Tree.

In Dantian, the 'Spirit Root Tree' swayed gently, absorbing a breath from the World Tree.

At this moment, Shen Lian was caught in a very interesting scene. There was a chaotic aura in the fairy world. The chaotic magic power he cultivated could also be seen as a kind of chaotic power. There was also a chaotic aura on the World Tree.

Shen Lian also discovered that the 'Spirit Root Tree' in his Dantian could absorb the chaotic energy falling from the World Tree, but it had never absorbed the chaotic energy from the Fairy World before.

As for now, he tried again, and the fairy world seemed to restrict him from using the chaotic energy within the world.

The baptism that came down from the World Tree was still a slow process, but it touched the core of the body, causing a sublimation inside and out. It was a process of continuous fragmentation and reorganization. As for the pain in the process, it was not important.

Gradually, Shen Lian was enveloped by the chaotic energy that fell from the World Tree, and more and more rotten water accumulated below.

Ten years, a hundred years, three hundred years...

millennium……

If it weren't for the crying and howling sounds that came from the chaos from time to time, the whole thing would look very harmonious. By the way, we also have to get rid of the rotten stench that permeates the space. It has already materialized and is extremely eye-catching.

Two thousand years passed.

The battle of the Immortal Realm to recover the lost territory outside the boundary wall has ended. The monitoring satellites set up by the Corpse Realm outside have been used to lead the remaining monks back if they ran fast, while those who ran slowly were turned into blood and swept into the Immortal Realm.

…

Deep in the chaos, somewhere else.

Amidst the swirling chaotic air currents, a purple-green fairy light bloomed with brilliance spanning billions of miles.

At the source of the brilliance, a purple-blue fairy stone revealed a pair of eyes, and runes appeared all around it. Thin streams of chaotic air emerged and sank into the fairy stone.

The vast divine nature surged like a huge lake, and purple and blue clouds of celebration appeared like fireworks, one, two... ten... thirty-three...

Finally, above the immortal stone, a total of seventy-two purple and blue auspicious clouds appeared, as magnificent as a canopy and as vast in divinity as the ocean.

"This is my limit."

Inside the fairy stone, there was a stone soul flickering like a star.

"The turmoil in the heavens is getting worse and worse. It's time to cross the gap between immortals and mortals."

"Unfortunately, it is worse than the Five Elements."

As a rare immortal stone in the world, it can't remember how many years it has existed, and it has even forgotten when it was born with intelligence.

After wasting countless years, he finally reached the edge of becoming an immortal again.

If he could cross that line, he would be a true immortal, not just a piece of refining material.

“Buzz!”

At this moment, a mysterious light appeared above the chaos, and the star sand of the sky evolved and enveloped the fairy stone.

Star sand fell from the chaos like rain.

"ah……"

Inside the fairy stone, the stone soul was horrified.

"God has bestowed me with spirits. Thank God for that."

The fairy stone shook lightly, collecting all the falling star sand into its body. Then the Qingyun that had reached its limit trembled again, and the seventy-third Qingyun emerged swayingly like a sprouting mushroom.

After being baptized by spiritual light, colorful lights continued to emerge from the fairy stone, and each rune also changed, reorganized, sublimated, and became more condensed.

…

On the bank of the Liangjiejie River.

There was an additional hazy fairy palace, with black air lingering above it like a snake, which occasionally changed into various strange faces and kept making strange noises.

"We are all family, so we can talk it out and harmony is the most important thing."

The figure in the fairy palace spoke, and it was as if billions of living beings were speaking in unison, except that the voice sounded a little sinister.

As soon as these words were spoken, they attracted the silent attention of the two Heavenly Daos, and all the demon shadows in the Immortal Palace disappeared in fear.

The giant python transformed by the Heavenly Dao of the Corpse World has been staring at the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal Spirit World.

He was convinced that there must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary. The fairy world had changed its habits and made such a big fuss, so they must be covering up something.

…

Behind the immortal heavenly path.

In the space formed by chaos, Shen Lian, who was wrapped up, shook his feet and felt that his feet were sticky and his whole body was marinated.

Looking inward at his own body, he found that it had completely become a skeleton eaten away by insects, and even his soul had holes. These holes were not caused by insect bites, but more like the holes left after the black spots on the noses of some young Taoist friends who had not yet entered the Qi training realm were pulled out.

Of course, this one is much more cruel than the strawberry nose. Wherever the skin is peeled off, there is acquired filth. It is like an enlarged version of scraping bones to heal wounds. The whole thing has become a big sieve, and you can see termites crawling around in these holes.

Shen Lian stretched out his hand and grabbed it again, picking out a black head from the flesh and blood.

At first glance, it's a top-grade eighth-level ore with chaotic attributes. If it were thrown outside, it would definitely attract a group of Mahayana masters to scramble for it and treat it as a treasure.

In a trance, he realized that he had reached the point where his poop had become a treasure.

Of course, he had already gone on a fast and abstained from all grains.

But after practicing for many years, the process of consolidating his realm has also refined the impurities in his body into treasures.

The deeper the foundation in the past, the more curses there are now.

"Rotten, rotten, rotten; running water never rots, door hinges never rot. I am old, too."

Shen Lian didn't care about his hollowed-out body. What he was doing now was to break it down and then rebuild it, completely transforming into a quasi-immortal body.

Although the time to overcome the tribulation is a bit longer, it is all exchanged for my previous practice.

After getting rid of the filthy body, it became more and more crystal-clear and no longer a body of flesh and blood. Even though it was full of holes, it began to possess the aura of immortal spirit.

In particular, the 'spiritual root tree' in the Dantian actually showed a tendency to continue growing, and it seemed that it wanted to penetrate into the meridians throughout the body.

The relationship didn't last long, because I thought he was too dirty.

Now, the chaotic airflow flowing down from the cave has become much thinner, and most of the process of its own corruption has been completed, and what remains is delicate work.

At the same time, through the black hole that evolved above, Shen Lian felt his affinity with the World Tree becoming deeper and deeper. He even had a desire to touch the World Tree.

In a flash, he tapped his feet, followed the remaining chaotic airflow and went straight up, and immediately drilled into the hole. The smoothness of the hole almost made Shen Lian unable to react.

Are you going in now? I was thinking of rubbing it first.

"So this is what the World Tree looks like."

The place where the branches of the worlds connected did not affect Shen Lian. He entered the heart of the tree that seemed to have been hollowed out by termites as if he had teleported.

Inside the hollow trunk, there are densely packed holes of various sizes, winding and twisting, and you can also see black spots mixed in the wood texture.

Shen Lian raised his hand and touched it. It felt rough, frosted, and fine sand-like powder fell down. He was so scared that he immediately withdrew his hand.

"No, my current state... this is not the World Tree Hole. I have merged into the World Tree."

Suddenly, Shen Lian looked at his condition and found that he had lost his human form. Although he had not yet survived the catastrophe of corruption, after most of the filth on his body was dispelled, he had already become a quasi-immortal body and could change into various states at will.

Now, he felt like a ball of mist, merging into the World Tree. The palm he just held grew out of the mist. With just a thought, he had hands and legs.

"Let's go and have a look."

Shen Lian began to move subconsciously, feeling like the lightning generated in a space wormhole. His speed was unhindered and moved as fast as lightning in an instant.

But the hole in the trunk of the World Tree was too big, and it seemed like there was no end at all. After trying for a while, he found that running around was useless.

"Did I come directly from the fairy world?"

After calming down, Shen Lian finally realized the most important thing.

I vaguely felt that the connection with the fairy world was still there, but I had indeed come out of the world, and through the regular channel.

After calming down, he leaned against the tree patterns in front of him again and evolved into a human form again. Even though he had been baptized now, his nature was still human.

He sat cross-legged against the wood and began to examine the changes in himself.

The corruption still needs to be ended, the wounds in the body need to be settled again, and the spiritual root tree...

Sure enough, when he approached the tree pattern, a mysterious chaotic airflow entered his body from the World Tree, and was then sucked into his body by the 'Spirit Root Tree'.

After the absorption, the 'Spirit Root Tree' began to glow. Shen Lian sensed the changes with his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a little hopeful that the energy absorbed by the 'Spirit Root Tree' could feed back into his own Dao Fruit.

Unfortunately, the spirit root tree just kept sucking away the energy, showing no sign of giving back any fruit.

The spiritual root tree also began to grow. The realm generated by the cultivator's Dantian was extremely vast. At this moment, the spiritual root tree rooted in the Dantian quickly grew to a size of a hundred feet and was heading towards a size of a thousand feet.

The branches that grew were densely packed and looked very aggressive, but there were no leaves, only bare, shiny branches.

Branches grew from the main trunk, and subsidiary branches grew from the branches, and there were thinner branches on the branches. These branches penetrated deep into Shen Lian's flesh and blood, and began to grow little by little like the meridians in the body.

Only the Dao fruit was hanging alone on one of the main branches, swaying, looking quite lonely.

…

"Um."

One day, Shen Lian suddenly opened his eyes. His vision was blurry at first, then he came back to his senses, connected with his previous memories, and showed a hint of surprise.

"Three thousand years have passed in a flash..."

I have hidden for thousands of years before, so three thousand years is nothing. The main reason is that this time I subconsciously entered a trance.

In the past, no matter how long the time was, he was always in seclusion. But this time, he fell into a trance. He was in a trance for more than three thousand years. It was a bit thrilling.

Looking inward at his own body, Shen Lian discovered that he had already become one with the 'Spirit Root Tree', with his Dantian as the foundation, his spiritual roots as the veins, his flesh and blood as the body, and even within a small finger, there were spiritual root branches branching countless times.

It was like having another skeleton in his body, with the original skeleton enclosed in it, giving him the illusion that it was comparable to a magic weapon.

The entire body is covered with densely packed tree branches.

But Shen Lian did not feel happy. He did not want to become a world tree, nor did he think of becoming a creator. This was something that had to be done by the Immortal Venerable Da Ai.

"Please don't try to turn me into a tree. Even I'm afraid of myself when I go crazy."

Shen Lian murmured as he gently touched the tree patterns in front of him.

I didn't expect that after surviving the calamity of corruption, before I could completely deal with it, I was thrown directly into the World Tree.

After collecting his thoughts, Shen Lian began to recall the entire process of overcoming the tribulation, how he was sent directly from the fairy world to the depths of chaos, and how he was led to come into contact with the World Tree.

The Heavenly Dao of the Immortal World must have noticed something different about him.

However, the spiritual root tree at the core did not notice it.

As for the weirdness of the spiritual root tree, it is probably related to the problem of the world tree.

"It seems that the Immortal Spirit Heavenly Dao regards me as a minor ally and has placed a bet on me, otherwise they would not have sent me up this time."

Suddenly going from being a sidekick to a cooperative partner was considered as entering the realm of the inner circle. Shen Lian subconsciously felt a little uncomfortable with it, but this was just his guess. Whether it could be proven or not would depend on follow-up.

"My incarnation is back. I wonder if I can go to the cave left by the Five Elements Immortal."

After suppressing other thoughts, Shen Lian began to contact his external incarnation.

Before this, the connection between him and his incarnation was only a slight perception. After all, the distance between the two worlds was too far. Now, the induction between the two has long been restored.

Afterwards, Shen Lian turned into a pool of water and began to move away along the hole. With the connection between him and his incarnation, he could easily identify the direction.

…

In the cave left behind by the Five Elements Immortal.

The incarnation had returned hundreds of years ago. He had returned to this cave safely along the way. Since his original body was also outside the boundary, he did not return to the boundary.

Outside the cave

After handing over the origin to the original body, the clone re-entered the cave and came to the rune formation that was suspended in the air above the cave. He raised his hand and touched the rune formation, and immediately a billowing chaotic airflow surged out and swallowed the clone in.

(End of this chapter)
