[Although "Hong" is the Mountain and River Co-Ruler, without the majestic body of the Ancestral Dragon, his physical form disintegrated under the "Heaven-Slaying Sword," yet "Hong" possessed the "Authority of Mountains and Rivers," able to recover with just a thought.]

[But in the next moment, the consciousness of the "Sword of Chaos" had already surged into his Primordial Spirit.]

[Hong’s Primordial Spirit instantly plunged into the consciousness universe of the "Modo Realm," where he could not wield the "Authority of Mountains and Rivers," only able to use Divine Techniques to destroy one consciousness world after another, but this was merely a drop in the ocean.]

[Hong’s Primordial Spirit struggled for an unknown period, his consciousness becoming increasingly blurred.]

[Hong’s Primordial Spirit shattered the consciousness world, falling again into the next consciousness world.]

[This time, when Hong opened his eyes, he could no longer remember his name. He was a farmer’s child, his parents busy arranging his marriage. He looked at his aging parents, his delicate wife, and the smiling faces of his childhood playmates.]

[He remembered, his name seemed to be Li Ergou. From now on, Li Ergou would live in this small village, marrying and having children, engaged in the daily grind, until the end of his days.]

[No!! A thought arose in his mind that he did not belong here, that he must leave this place!]

[He wanted to cultivate!]

[Climbing from the very bottom of the Mortal World, he battled monsters and leveled up to become an invincible Divinity Transformation Cultivator, with three thousand beautiful friends pleading for him to stay.]

[With a steadfast Dao Heart, Li Ergou resolutely ascended to the Spirit Realm, becoming a cultivator at the very bottom. He focused on cultivation for thirty thousand years, becoming an invincible True Immortal, renowned as the first man across the ages, his ascension was legendary.]

[Unexpectedly, after overcoming tribulations and ascending to the Immortal Realm, he found himself bullied as a lowly Little Immortal; tears of humiliation fell as he swore secretly to reach the summit step by step.]

[After several eras, he became the first Immortal King of the modern age in the Immortal Realm...]

[It was then that he learned beyond the Immortal Realm lay the Chaos Realm...]

[The journey was endless, and so were his dreams.]

[In these illusory worlds, Hong’s Primordial Spirit Dao Practice receded day by day. For an unknown time, Li Ergou, in the Chaos Realm, killed the strongest, the Chaotic Heaven Great Demon King, who in his dying breath claimed there was a Sea of Chaos beyond, with an island within, called Central State.]

[The Chaotic Heaven Great Demon King was merely a minor figure from Central State, where the strongest eight Ancient Demon God Clans could easily destroy the universe or crush Li Ergou with a flick of their fingers.]

[It turned out this was just a corner of the Chaos Realm, and over there was the true prosperous age for cultivators.]

[Li Ergou gazed upon the endless chaos and finally grew tired. He chose to remain in this corner of the corner as a king and overlord. Until thousands of years later, a descendant of the Flame Demon, one of the eight Ancient Demon Gods, descended, overcoming numerous hardships, to slay the overlord Li Ergou.]

[From here, they moved toward Central State...]

[The story ended.]

[The world collapsed.]

[And in the Qingxu Realm, only a moment had passed. Hong’s Primordial Spirit flickered before being submerged, becoming Li Ergou, its Primordial Spirit infinitely divided, becoming creatures in Modo Realm’s endless fantasies.]

[The moment Hong’s Primordial Spirit extinguished, the heavens and earth mourned. Everyone in the Qingxu Realm received the message that the "Lord of Mountains and Rivers" had truly fallen.]

["How can the Mountain and River Co-Ruler fall?!!" Everyone raised their heads in disbelief.]

[I gently wiped the blade of the "Sword of Chaos," raising my eyes to the empty and deathly stillness of the world.]

[I have cultivated on the "Jade Sky Immortal Island" for thousands of years, having long endured the Three Calamities, with five thousand years of Dao Practice, robust Magical Power, stronger than ordinary True Immortals. Utilizing the power of the "Sword of Chaos" now was far beyond my past.]

[This time, the "Heaven-Slaying Sword" did not exhaust the Primordial Spirit, it only cost three thousand years of Dao Practice to kill a "Mountain and River Co-Ruler" in the "Qingxu Realm."]

[Though greatly diminished, I still had enough power to shake the consciousness of the "Sword of Chaos," transforming into a sword, dragging a Great Divine Power User of the "Moral Immortal Sect" into extinction with me.]

[I personally slew Hong, and while the sky and earth turned gloomy, oddly no destruction calamity descended immediately.]

I was somewhat surprised. I knew from my Master that the Qingxu Realm’s Heavenly Dao was a "natural law," always "objectively" existing but eternally silent.]

[Even these "Innate Divine" beings, when incompetent, would bring about a "destruction calamity," only by attaining "Indestructible Divine" status, walking with the heavens, could one achieve transcendence.]

[Nine Heavens, Three Saints, the Ancestral Dragon as Sovereign of the Four Seas, and to this day, Qingxu Realm has birthed thirteen Immortal Divines.]

[The Nine Heavens circle around the Qingxu Realm, only slightly smaller than the Qingxu Realm, while the Grotto Heavens and Blessed Lands of the Great Divine Power Users are medium to small worlds.]

[With the death of the Mountain and River Co-Ruler, the Divine Land Ancestral Vein quaked, and the Daoist Inheritance Fortune of the Moral Immortal Sect plummeted by thirty percent.]

[Somewhere in Outer Heaven, an old man with eyes closed holding a seal sensed a disturbance and suddenly opened his eyes: "What Divine Being dares wield such Divine Techniques?"]

["In the Qingxu Realm, to kill the Mountain and River Co-Ruler is a heaven-defying act, no Daoist friend from the Lower Realm has such Divine Techniques."]

The old man gently twisted his fingers, calculating a formula, "Can’t figure it out? An external Great Power? Hmph, the Qingxu Realm shall not allow you to trample upon it! Today, you shall understand the methods of this poor Daoist, everything in your world will belong to this poor Daoist."]

The old man’s eyes were indifferent. He raised his hand to pluck a verdant Jade Leaf above his head, and with a gentle twist of his fingers, the leaf instantly burned, transforming into a brilliant flame, quickly disintegrating into ash in his hand.]

[Venerable of Dao and Virtue utilized "Dao Fruit" and Nine-point "Three-Flower Dao Rhyme" to infer the Celestial Secret...]

[Qingxu Realm?? Celestial Dao is responding...]

[Whether to use 367,900 points of Fortune to shield the inference of the Celestial Secret by the "Divine of Attainment" in Outer Heaven and continue rewriting this segment of life?]

...

"What?! 367,900 points of Fortune?!!"

Ning Xunqiu’s pupils suddenly constricted, his gaze firmly fixed on these words in the Celestial Derivation Volume.]

Bang!

Suddenly, a slight cracking sound arose, only to see golden Celestial Derivation Volume unexpectedly appearing with cracks, the words leaping out but not turning to ashes.]

Faced with this sudden change, Ning Xunqiu swiftly said: 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"No!!"

The golden light of the Celestial Derivation Volume gradually dimmed. Ning Xunqiu stared at the gray cracks on it, his heart aching.]

"Thankfully, it wasn’t broken..." Ning Xunqiu flipped through the Celestial Derivation Volume, although the words at the beginning were dim, they had not disappeared, and he could still perform rewrites.]

"For a Divine in the Qingxu Realm to infer the Celestial Secret at a "great cost," it actually required hundreds of thousands of points of Fortune to shield it."

Ning Xunqiu checked the condition of the Celestial Derivation Volume, still feeling a twinge of fear.]

"If such incidents happen a few more times, the Celestial Derivation Volume may get damaged..." he muttered to himself.]

"The old man holding the seal? The Mountain and River Seal among the depiction of a map, a tower, and a seal, he is the sacred being behind the Immortal Sect—Venerable of Dao and Virtue!"

He slew the Mountain and River Co-Ruler Hong in the book, but the Celestial Dao did not descend with a destruction calamity.]

Ning Xunqiu feared not death, yet the Qingxu Realm’s Immortal Daoists, the Indestructible Divine ones, once they began inferring the Celestial Secret, the Celestial Dao would respond, hindering the rewriting of fate in the Celestial Derivation Volume, which he found quite thorny.]

"In the Qingxu Realm, without the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth to mask the Celestial Secret, I will find it hard to proceed." He pondered.]

"I prevented the Ancestral Dragon from forging the "Fallen Saint Spear," due to karma with Duan Hong and having the Mountain and River Fortune, this was already a "predetermined reality," I am destined to contend with the Moral Immortal Sect."]

"For thousands of years, if I can forge the "Jade Sky Streaming Light Galaxy" and the "Sword of Chaos" into Slaughter Treasures... it remains to be seen whose victory it will be."]

"I await you in the future."
