Chapter 1235: Chapter 531: Converging Timelines, Stepping into the Forbidden Domain!
After watching the past and present lives of his own, Jiang Yuan fell into deep contemplation.
Having learned that he was the reincarnation of a True Spirit Mark of that Heavenly Emperor, he was not surprised.
This possibility had crossed his mind long ago, so it was not so inconceivable for him.
At the same time, he felt no connection to the Heavenly Emperor and did not identify with being a part of him.
If one is reincarnated, that signifies a completely different person.
He did not consider himself a part of that entity, nor did he see any relation of priority or succession.
Reincarnation is a principle of the world, and every being has past lives. If one were to always incorporate the identity of one’s past life into the current one, wouldn’t that mean each generation is the same person?
In Jiang Yuan’s view, each life is an independent individual, an independent existence.
He did not believe himself to be one of the avatars of the Heavenly Emperor.
He is himself, Jiang Yuan, not some so-called incarnation of the Heavenly Emperor.
But he knew that once he entered the upper realm, once he was within the Cave Heaven World of that Heavenly Emperor, the will belonging to that Heavenly Emperor would surely detect him.
Once he detected his presence, he would inevitably make a move against him.
Because as far as he knew, the Heavenly Emperor had once employed this technique as part of a special practice.
Manifesting myriad incarnations, blending into each moment along the Time River.
No matter what fortunes were obtained, at the end of each life, one would bring all of one’s life’s insights into the main body, contributing to the accumulated foundation of the main body.
Originally, there was nothing wrong with this plan. The technique he was cultivating was bound to succeed eventually.
By merging the realizations and accumulations of countless lives, not only would he fully recover from his injuries, but he would also ascend even higher.
Furthermore, with the accumulation over a million years, the insights from the Great Dao Cultivation of countless beings in the upper realm at every moment would all become his dowry.
Once the time was right, he would completely surpass his most powerful state, and even sacrifice all the beings and All Spirits of the upper realm, gaining nearly infinite energy. On top of that, fully mastering the Three Thousand Great Dao would allow his Cave Heaven World to undergo a complete metamorphosis, its position level equivalent to Heaven and Earth, and he would also be able to achieve transcendence.
This plan had to be said to be very effective, seemingly flawless, and unlikely to be discovered by anyone.
Even the closest people around him didn’t know, only he himself was aware of it.
Therefore, there was only one possibility for another being to know all his plans and arrangements.
And that would be his own incarnation.
Any other being reaching Jiang Yuan’s current situation, with control over the Time Great Dao at ninety-five percent, could glimpse into their past and present lives, contractiong the timeline of this life.
By doing so, countless timelines of one’s existence would come together, converging on a single point.
Taking this step, the past becomes untraceable, untouchable, its fate undetectable, and no enemy could kill the past self, affecting the present self at the current time node.
It was precisely because Jiang Yuan had accomplished this that he uncovered this ancient and enduring scheme.
This Heavenly Emperor, who was also a pioneer of Dao, had plans that spanned countless eras, all for the sake of transcendence.
Normally, none of his incarnations would be able to discover this scheme, this plan.
Because going backwards in time, the Heavenly Emperor himself exists. In that period where he was already present, another incarnated self, a second him, was impossible.
Going even further back was in the past era.
Even if his reincarnated self reached the pinnacle of all beings, it was still impossible to discover his plan.
Because that was an era already passed.
And as an incarnated self, talent and potential could not possibly surpass his main body.
Only from that moment into the future could there be a chance for a reincarnated self to reach the stage of mastering the Time Great Dao to ninety-five percent, to the point of contractig the timelines, and thus be able to peek into one’s own past and present lives, discovering his scheme.
But this was supposed to be impossible.
Because after that battle, when the main body of his True Spirit Mark returned to the Immortal Land and before sinking into slumber, he invoked a final, desperate power, separating the world of mortals from that of immortals.
Creating his own Cave Heaven World, which was his Immortal World, was quite simple for him.
Following that ultimate move, the world of mortals returned to the human realm, the Immortal Land returned to the Immortal World, with no more contact or connection between the two from thenceforth.
The Immortal World became an independent existence.
Under these circumstances, the pinnacle of cultivation in the human realm was the Supreme Realm.
But with merely the Supreme Realm, it was impossible to achieve this step, to control the Time Great Dao to ninety-five percent.
So before the Heavenly Emperor went into slumber, he never considered this possibility.
Because normally, such a thing was not supposed to happen.
Jiang Yuan also knew that he was not normal.
If he were normal, there was no way he could possess such an extraordinary "panel."
And he certainly would not have been able to enter that gray fog in his past life and suddenly arrive at this life.
Now, reflecting on it with his perspective, the only place filled with uncertainty for him was that fog and the flash of purple light within it.
That streak of purple light not only ended his past life but also brought him to the true world’s node, rather than a past time node.
"What exactly is that purple light?" Jiang Yuan murmured to himself as he looked at his "panel."
His intuition told him that the appearance of that purple light, his traversal through it, and the "panel" that revealed itself in front of him at that moment when he arrived here.
This series of extraordinary events all point to one thing: the appearance of that purple light created his "panel."
