Living in the Doomsday and Becoming an Immortal Alone

"Can't you just be honest?"

The Daoist didn't expect it either, as Senior Bai Gu spoke up immediately to question him.

He felt a bit embarrassed.

"Senior, what's wrong?"

"I just looked away for a moment, and wow, you almost caused a time storm!"

Senior Bai Gu's words were tinged with an indescribable frustration.

He glanced inside Wang Jixuan's treasure ship, bowed his head and ducked inside, frowning as he looked at this Loose Immortal Mao Mo for two seconds, but said nothing, assuming Mao Mo was Wang Jixuan's lackey.

"Keep moving forward."

Senior Bai Gu lightly swiped his finger, and a colorful path appeared in front of them.

Wang Jixuan steered the treasure ship and flew into it.

The path began to twist, stretch, and compress, and Wang Jixuan felt like he was a piece of chewing gum being chewed, but with Senior Bai Gu's protection, he suffered no harm.

That distorted feeling vanished.

They had already passed through that path, reaching another expanse of starry sky.

Not far ahead, a piece of land floated below the stars, clearly visible, wrapped entirely by a layer of the embryonic film of heaven and earth, with streaks of flowing light occasionally flashing through it.

Wang Jixuan sensed something, turned his head to the side, and found Mao Mo already unconscious, and Mu Dan wrapped in a layer of seven-colored rosy clouds.

Clearly, Senior Bai Gu had something he wanted to entrust to him.

"Never thought," Bai Gu sighed lightly, "that traveling through time, hiding in the past, would cause so much upheaval."

Wang Jixuan hastily said, "I don't want to burden you too much, Senior. Just return me to the present world."

"The present world, ah."

Bai Gu slowly raised his hand, drawing a straight line in front of him, infused with blue and purple hues.

"Using the present world you departed from as the baseline, this is the normal time line.

"You're here now."

Above the blue and purple intertwined line appeared a light gray line, meandering at both ends, like a fish jumping off the blue and purple line, then reconnecting at the end to the blue and purple line.

Wang Jixuan was currently on this light gray line.

Bai Gu said, "The Time Dao and Karma Dao both have corrective powers. Originally, I thought everything was under control, but never expected that your actions in the Xu Realm affected not only the Xu Realm, but had a faint, extremely subtle influence on the entire Three Realms. I actually can't sever this influence."

Wang Jixuan tried to understand.

This must be what Mu Dan referred to as the butterfly effect.

Bai Gu muttered, "Logically, as a Da Luo Golden Immortal of the Time Dao, I should master this Dao... but I always feel like it's the Dao assimilating me, and I'm just a part of it, supplementing it, bringing it closer to perfection, yet trying to control the Dao is far beyond my capability."

Wang Jixuan dared not interrupt.

Senior Bai Gu was clearly pondering; perhaps through contemplation, he might break through.

After a long while, Bai Gu stopped mumbling and looked up at Wang Jixuan.

"Earlier, I planned to hide you in the past for good cultivation. By changing regions a dozen times, you could steadily reach the state of becoming an immortal.

"But now, it seems I can only take you to the Immortal Realm as soon as possible.

"The Xu Realm ahead is your last stop before heading to the Immortal Realm, approximately fifty-nine million six hundred and forty thousand years from the present world node we departed from. Time-wise, it's only been a few hundred years since we left the Xu Realm. Currently, your second-life as the Three Realms Wanderer has resumed cultivation, and in that Forbidden Land of the Immortals, he's gallivanting around, collecting beauties from various planets as his grand aspiration."

Wang Jixuan: ...

No need to elaborate on that side.

Senior Bai Gu changes the topic: "This realm is about to face calamity, and will soon completely collapse. I spent a long time finding this node."

Wang Jixuan felt a twinge and chuckled, "Is Senior asking me to shake time and cause and effect this time?"

"Indeed, your understanding is commendable."

Bai Gu seemed quite happy, although without obvious brows on his bony face, he gave Wang Jixuan the impression of raising an eyebrow:

"I want you to assist me in my cultivation.

"I never thought not following the routine would lead to so many possibilities, which is wonderfully captivating, pulling me out of my original state of tranquility.

"I have new ambitions, wanting to explore the Great Paths I've yet to comprehend.

"It's all so wonderfully captivating, making me feel alive again."

Wang Jixuan: ...

Good gracious.

Senior has become restless.

"So, Senior, what exactly do you need me to do?"

"Aren't you mining everywhere? Go mine here, then."

Senior Bai Gu laughed and said:

"Mining has the greatest impact on heaven and earth, as you're directly moving materials from the world into subspace. When you leave with the subspace, it will greatly affect the heavens and earth.

"The other option is to kill or sire beings."

"Sire beings?"

"Yeah, procreation, either with people or with beasts of similar intelligence to humans."

Wang Jixuan: ...

"Perhaps I should just target evildoers then."

"Go ahead," Bai Gu shook his head lightly, "In reality, good and evil are just human evaluations, irrelevant to heaven and earth, or the Great Path."

"I've just reached Mahayana, not yet become immortal..."

Wang Jixuan cupped his hands:

"Thank you, Senior, for your guidance. I'll do my best to stir the winds and clouds of this realm and shake the Great Path of heaven and earth!"

"Hmm, go ahead, I have confidence in you."

Bai Gu patted Wang Jixuan's shoulder, leaving a strand of pure, mysterious Daoist charm without any side effects.

Daoist charm of the Time Dao.

"Comprehend this Daoist charm, and should you gain something from it, consider yourself my named disciple."

Wang Jixuan was delighted, bowing in gratitude, "I won't disappoint your expectations, Senior."
