Chapter 635: Human-World Union
Chapter 635: Human-World Union
The Great Xuan World.
Western Frontier.
A towering ancient tree stretches towards the heavens, its canopy resembling a skyward cloud, blocking out the sun.
Chen Mu stands at the edge of the sky dome, gazing beyond the realm, through the realm barrier, into the boundless void.
For the Chen Mu of the past, this vast void was filled with crises and challenges, and he felt like a fledgling bird, cautiously flapping its wings, flying towards the endless expanse of the sky.
But now, time has flown by, and this vast Vangu Expanse is no longer uncharted territory for him. He has reached the apex of this void domain, standing tall above countless Divine Realms and achieving the rank of Divine Lord.
Behind him,
Within the lush and majestic canopy of the Xunmu tree, a sturdy branch extends, revealing a face gazing at Chen Mu's back. In its weathered eyes, there is a mix of awe and admiration.
Even though Xunmu met Chen Mu before he achieved divinity and even offered him assistance during his rise, it still feels a sense of reverence towards Chen Mu.
After all,
Chen Mu has now ascended to the rank of Divine Lord, and his name has spread far and wide.
Chen Mu inherited the legacy of Jianmu Divine Lord, becoming his disciple. With Jianmu's demise, Chen Mu has achieved the Divine Lord rank, and naturally, all that belonged to Jianmu will now serve Chen Mu.
Xunmu watches Chen Mu's back, feeling a sense of awe. In just a mere two hundred thousand world years, the once ordinary Chen Mu has surpassed the Divine Realm and attained the Divine Lord rank, rivaling Jianmu!
Who could have imagined this?
Xunmu once only wished to leave this place and return to its homeland.
But now, it knows that Jianmu has perished, and the world he created, Xunmu's home, no longer exists. The promise made back then has lost its meaning.
Xunmu now has only one wish: for those who plotted against Jianmu to pay the price!
Xunmu understands the difficulty of this task.
It is a challenging endeavor because those who plotted against Jianmu were all Peak Seventh Heaven Divine Lords, and some were even shadows of Eighth Heaven Divine Lords. Xunmu, a mere special life created by Jianmu, felt like an ant before the Divine Lords.
But Chen Mu's rise has given it hope. In just two hundred thousand world years, Chen Mu's future is hard to predict, and the Eighth Heaven will struggle to impede his progress. He might even aspire to the Ninth Heaven, achieving peerless status! If Chen Mu can become a Ninth Heaven Peerless Deity Lord, then taking revenge for Jianmu would be a mere flip of the hand.
Therefore,
Xunmu realizes it has no power to act and doesn't need to do anything. It only needs to stay in the West, serving Chen Mu by opening voids, expanding the world, and nurturing life.
This was what Xunmu did for Jianmu, and now it has returned to its original starting point, except that it once served Jianmu, and now it serves Chen Mu.
"It's time."
Chen Mu, who has been standing at the edge of the Western Frontier, suddenly speaks.
In his eyes, a deep and mysterious light reflects, and within this light, the entire Great Xuan World is mirrored.
After contemplating the Void River and cultivating the Void Path for an extended period, Chen Mu has finally understood three types of Triple Mystic Fusions, all belonging to the Void Lineage! With such a profound foundation, he can now attempt to incorporate the Great Xuan World into his Interface Body!
Although the three fusions he comprehends are the Mystic Fusions of Expansion, Infinity, and Convergence, the saying that 'all paths lead to the same truth' holds true. With his mastery of three Void Lineage Mystic Fusions, he can fully utilize the Void Lineage power to integrate the entire Great Xuan World into his body, achieving 'Human-World Union'!
"Begin."
A faint light flickers in Chen Mu's eyes, and he takes a step forward, not leaving the Great Xuan World but arriving at its very center, above the bustling capital of the Great Xuan Dynasty.
After a long period of development, the capital of the Great Xuan Dynasty is now even more prosperous than when Chen Mu rose to prominence. The Great Xuan Dynasty resembles a divine empire.
At this moment, Divine Realm beings descend from Heaven's Palace Realm to visit the dynasty's capital.
Within the majestic golden and jade palace, the current emperor of the Great Xuan Dynasty and numerous royal family members kneel in reverence, listening to the teachings of a purple-robed figure.
The figure in purple robes stood tall in the Golden Throne Hall, overlooking the numerous members of the royal family, most of whom were his younger generations. His gaze was stern as he admonished them, decreeing that despite their royal status, they must not act arbitrarily. They should restrain themselves and be cautious in their actions.
After all, above the mortal realm, there exists the Divine Realm.
In the present world, the ultimate goal pursued by martial artists is no longer being the best in the world or ruling over the land. Instead, they aspire to shatter the void and ascend during the day.
Only by achieving the Divine Realm can one shatter the void, enter the Heavenly Palace Realm, and attain immortality, living as long as the heavens themselves.
Beyond this, all mortal power and status are but fleeting clouds, like dust... The figure in purple robes was someone who had achieved the Divine Realm many years ago. Sensing the signs of decay and corruption in the current generation of the Great Xuan Dynasty's royal family, he descended to admonish them.
He didn't really care whether the younger generations would amount to anything, but he didn't want them to become too decadent and corrupt, committing acts that would anger both heaven and earth. If such news reached Chen Yue and the others, it would be a disaster.
Chen Yue was a person of integrity, and she might ignore minor evils, but if the dynasty's actions angered heaven and earth, and it reached her ears, she would not show mercy.
Thousands of years ago, Chen Yue descended to the mortal world once.
At that time, the Great Xuan Dynasty's royal family was deeply corrupt, committing many unspeakable acts. Some of the royal nobles even took pleasure in killing, wantonly trampling upon the lives of mortals. When Chen Yue learned of this, she personally descended, and on that day, rivers of blood flowed within the dynasty. Countless wastrel nobles died at her hands, and she killed throughout the entire Great Xuan Dynasty, striking fear into all the influential families.
She showed no mercy, disregarding the blood ties of the royal family and the Yu family, and even the fact that most of the royal offspring were her younger generations. She killed without hesitation, and her actions terrified the entire world.
After that, all the influential families became more restrained.
But time tends to make people forget, and mortals never learn from history.
Thousands of years later, on this very day, the winds of corruption blew once more within the dynasty, and chaos began to brew. This caught the attention of the figure in purple robes, who feared that if this continued, it would attract Chen Yue's attention again, leading to another round of cleansing and slaughter. So, he personally descended to admonish them.
"I've heard that among you, there are those who disregard morality and abuse their power as royals. How do you, as the Emperor, govern? Are you truly unaware, or are you turning a blind eye?"
The figure in purple robes sternly reprimanded the current Emperor, who knelt before him, the outstanding member of the current royal generation and a cultivator at the Human-World Union level. However, in front of the purple-robed figure, he could only nod in agreement.
After the reprimand, the figure in purple robes spoke coldly, "When you hold a position, you must fulfill its duties. Since you've ascended to the Emperor's throne, you should govern the world, taking responsibility for its rise and fall. Instead, you've used your authority to gather resources for your cultivation, allowing the royal family to decay and bring chaos to the world. If this reaches the ears of those ancient ancestors, this capital will once again flow with rivers of blood. Even though you, as the current Emperor, may not have been directly involved, you are still responsible for the turmoil in the world!"
"Do you want the events of thousands of years ago to repeat themselves?"
Hearing the words of the purple-robed figure, the young Emperor, clad in dragon robes, trembled in fear and nodded repeatedly.
He was well aware that to those who had ascended during the day and attained the Divine Realm, he, as the current Emperor, was insignificant. Only by achieving the Divine Realm could one truly transcend mortality.
He was terrified of the slaughter that occurred thousands of years ago when Chen Yue descended and killed countless people. Therefore, he desperately wanted to break free from mortality and attain the Divine Realm. His desire to become Emperor was merely to control the dynasty's power and gather more resources for his cultivation. He paid no attention to the dynasty's affairs or the corruption within the royal family.
It was only after receiving the reprimand and reminder from the purple-robed figure that he finally realized his mistake, feeling a chill down his spine as cold sweat drenched him.
Seeing this, the figure in purple robes shook his head slightly.
He knew that his younger generation still had a long way to go if they wanted to achieve the Divine Realm.
Thousands of years ago, when Chen Yue descended and took action, he had also felt that she was too ruthless. But indeed, it was necessary to have someone like Chen Yue, who held a deep sense of righteousness, to keep the royal family of the dynasty in check and prevent them from acting arbitrarily.
Among those who had achieved the Divine Realm, many were from the Yu, Chen, and Ji families, and they often showed leniency towards their younger generations. In reality, it was only when Chen Yue took action that everyone in the Heavenly Palace Realm would dare not interfere.
Chen Yue's status was, in the end, transcendent.
Even he, having ascended to the Divine Realm and transcending the mortal world, still dared not defy her. When Chen Yue took action to execute guilty juniors, he, too, did not dare to intervene.
Above the capital,
Chen Mu's gaze swept across the entire capital and the imperial city, taking in the scene within the Golden Throne Hall.
As the Realm Sovereign of the Great Xuan World, and now having attained the status of a Divine Lord, nothing in the world could escape his eyes. With a single thought, he could know everything in the world, including events from thousands of years ago when the imperial family's corruption caused an uproar. Chen Yue had executed countless nobles, and he was well aware of it, but he had never interfered from the beginning.
Hum!
At this moment, he merely glanced at the purple-robed figure and quickly averted his gaze, while his thoughts moved, causing his body to quietly begin expanding, growing with the wind from a normal size to three zhang, ten zhang, a hundred zhang...
As his body continued to grow, it soon came into contact with the city walls and palaces of the capital, but strangely, there was no substantial collision between them. His figure seemed illusory, as if passing through the palaces without any hindrance, incorporating them into his body.
"Hmm?"
Just as Chen Mu's body expanded and engulfed the entire Golden Throne Hall, the purple-robed figure inside, who was reprimanding the numerous royals, suddenly paused, as if sensing something, and looked up.
However, he didn't notice anything and only furrowed his brows slightly, sensing a faint ripple in the void.
"Void Energy?"
He vaguely felt an extremely subtle void fluctuation, and only a few in the Heaven's Palace could control void energy to this degree.
Could it be the Realm Sovereign?
The purple-robed figure immediately thought of Chen Mu, who had transcended the mortal world and achieved the Divine Realm. Up until now, he had only met Chen Mu once, and his heart trembled as he looked at the many nobles before him and reprimanded them more harshly.
The purple-robed figure had just entered the Divine Realm and couldn't understand Chen Mu's methods. However, if a Divine Lord were present, they would clearly discern that Chen Mu was using Profound Fusion Power.
Expansion and Infinity!
He continuously expanded this interface clone, merging it with infinite profundities, causing the expansion to reach near-infinity. In a short time, the interface clone rapidly inflated and grew until it engulfed the entire capital, the entire Central Land... and even the entire Great Xuan World!
At this moment, from beyond the realm, one could see Chen Mu's colossal body standing in the void, stretching for over a million li, while the Great Xuan World resembled a shining white egg within his chest.
"Merge!"
As his body continued to grow, encompassing the entire Great Xuan World, a faint glow flashed in Chen Mu's eyes, and he whispered.
In an instant, the profound power within him transformed from 'expansion' and 'infinity' to 'consolidation' and 'infinity'. The vast world, spanning millions of li, began to rapidly merge with his interface clone.
Gradually, the entire world merged with his body in terms of spatial structure.
After all the light disappeared, Chen Mu took a deep breath, and his enormous body quickly shrank back to a normal human size in no time.
"It's done."
Feeling the complete fusion of the interface clone and the Great Xuan World, no longer limited to one place, and able to move freely, Chen Mu's heart also relaxed.
The interface clone matched his main body in strength, and by using the methods of the Void Lineage to incorporate the world into his body, it became a truly perfect clone, free from any limitations and able to come and go as it pleased.
This was an enormous help to him.
Whether using the interface clone as direct assistance or retreating to the depths of the void to hide in remote places, it served as an extremely effective backup for self-preservation.
For example, if the Vanggu Divine Lord had such an interface clone, even if his true body were trapped, he wouldn't care at all. He could even go as far as to destroy his true body and recreate it, using this method to escape.
