Stepping Into the Fourth Stride!
Transcending Eternity!
(Grand Finale)_1 In the heart of Dadao Palace.
This was the Land of Emptiness, vast and desolate, devoid of the Vitality of Living Beings, yet filled with the breath of the Dao.
Above this land in the sky, there was a brilliant source of light that radiated the aura of myriad paths.
Endless Daoist rules blossomed and extended from it, as if it were the ultimate source of Dao for all the heavens and myriad worlds.
Han Li suddenly felt an intense yearning, a yearning from his flesh, Primordial Spirit, Cultivation Technique, Dao, and Dao seed, desiring to touch that source of light, as though it could grant him an Against the Heaven’s Creation.
However, Han Li did not gaze further at that mass of light; instead, he stared intently at the figure beneath the light.
It was a member of the Human Clan.
Standing with his back to him, hands clasped behind his back.
About eight feet tall, the entire figure emitted an aura of lonely desolation that had endured through countless vicissitudes.
Seemingly an illusion, surrounded by ripples of time, as if he were not a person from this ancient history.
Before Han Li could even speak, the man began to talk, his voice ethereal and lofty, elusive to the listener.
“You have finally arrived.”
Han Li’s gaze flickered.
Did this person know him?
Was he specifically here waiting for him?
“Who are you?” After thinking for a moment, Han Li cautiously asked.
“Congratulations, you have passed the trial.
It is now yours.”
The man did not respond to Han Li’s question and continued to speak.
Although he didn’t specify what it was, Han Li subconsciously looked towards the light in the sky.
The man’s enigmatic words clarified some things for Han Li, that the increased difficulties in Dadao Palace’s trials and the various challenges were indeed related to him.
But what was the purpose of doing so?
Han Li was puzzled; his mind was full of questions, hoping someone would provide answers.
“I know you have many doubts, but you will soon know the answers,” the man continued to say.
Han Li had thought that the man would provide some kind of explanation, but instead, the figure became even more indistinct, seemingly about to vanish from this time and space at any moment.
At that moment, a certain guess in Han Li’s heart was confirmed.
This man was not part of this time and space; what Han Li was seeing was merely a segment of imagery left by this person, and the words had been pre-recorded, so he could not answer his questions.
But that did not lessen the doubts in his heart; on the contrary, they grew stronger.
“I look forward to our next meeting.”
Before the silhouette completely disappeared, these words were transmitted.
Han Li’s brows furrowed; he seemed to be experiencing an event of special significance.
“Our next meeting?
I’m starting to look forward to it as well,” Han Li murmured to himself inwardly.
Casting aside all distractions, he looked towards that mass of ultimate Daoist source, his eyes flickering, and gently beckoned with his hand.
Indeed, the ultimate Daoist source immediately flew towards him, eventually coming to rest in Han Li’s hands.
Feeling the craving from his entire insides and outsides, Han Li did not rush to devour and refine it but looked it over carefully, whispering to himself, “Is this the most Against the Heaven’s Creation in Dadao Palace?”
If this truly was the ultimate source of Dao, then indeed it was the Against the Heaven’s Creation for the fourth step.
“Huh~”
As various thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, Han Li pressed the mass of the ultimate Daoist source into his body, merging with his flesh, Primordial Spirit, Cultivation Technique, Dao seed, and Dao.
Once the ultimate Daoist source fully integrated with these five aspects, a profound and mysterious feeling arose within Han Li’s heart.
His understanding of the ultimate martial path reached a new height.
If he advanced further, he could step into that legendary fourth phase of cultivator’s path.
Han Li had finally understood how he could step into the fourth phase of cultivation.
It required “Five in One”!
One must bring flesh, Primordial Spirit, Cultivation Technique, Dao seed, and Dao to the fulfillment of the Immortal Path, and integrate them completely into one.
Only then, can one step into the fourth phase of cultivation.
Not one could be absent; even the slightest discrepancy meant failure.
After devouring and refining that mass of the ultimate Daoist source, Han Li’s ultimate martial path also reached the Immortal Emperor Level, or rather, all aspects of him reached the Immortal Emperor Level.
Moreover, the shackles that limited cultivators from breaking through to the fourth phase of cultivation were now lifted.
He only needed to spend tens of thousands of years to solidify his realm of cultivation to stride into the fourth step of cultivation in one go.
Although tens of thousands of years may seem long, to an Immortal Emperor, it was insignificant—like a second in the eyes of a common person.
At the same time, after refining the ultimate Daoist source, Han Li also learned much information, and most of the doubts in his heart were resolved.
The member of the Human Clan who embarked on the expedition, the Emperor of Heaven at that time, led the forces of the Heavenly Court to form array in the Boundless Space to fend off enemies.
After slaying countless mighty foes, he captured the ultimate Daoist source, thoroughly refined it, and merged it into the Dadao Palace, becoming its core.
Then, the Emperor of Heaven cast Dadao Palace forth, crossing the endless void of space to fall into the fragments of the Origin World that had plummeted deep into the Bitter Sea.
The Eternal Ark was not loaded with an Eternal World but with fragments of the Origin World, which had shattered before the Emperor of Heaven’s expedition in an ancient battle.
Dadao Palace, carrying with it the fragments of the Origin World, left the Bitter Sea.
As it could not reach the other shore, it came to the current space and time, a space-time long ago explored by the Emperor of Heaven, yet it could not fully escape the flames of war.
In this space and time, the fragments of the Origin World evolved into the myriad worlds of the Ancient Eternal Realm we see today, and the timeline also began anew from then on.
The traces of the past were severed, and only those who reached the fourth step could investigate and set forth upon the path.
Though an Immortal Emperor could reverse the years, trace all the timelines of the past and future, and roam through infinite parallel spaces, he could not trace back to the times before antiquity.
For in this space and time, the era before ancient times did not exist—it was complete nothingness, concealed by mists.
