Within the original gate to the Divine Realm, two coordinates were left, which Zhou Yi used to deduce the position of the Marketplace in the sea of realms, using the way these coordinates were described.

The difficulty of this task was akin to knowing that one plus one equals two and then having to deduce higher math on your own!

Perhaps the methods of positioning in the Divine Realm were different, but the ones he had worked out could indeed be used.

The spirit fragment that traversed worlds had to pass through two barriers and the boundless void, requiring a massive amount of Formation and Prohibition to be added—far more troublesome than restoring the Sect Protection Array of the Patch Heaven Sect.

Zhou Yi spent a hundred years crafting before finally completing the refinement of the spirit fragment.

The branch of the Jianmu tree changed, turning into a palm-sized purple Compass, densely engraved with inscriptions, numbering in the hundreds of millions.

It could be said that Zhou Yi had integrated all of his millennia of learning into it.

And to have completed it in just a hundred years, he naturally couldn’t have done it without a “cheat device”; the manifestation of the essence of Heaven’s will ensured that not a single mistake occurred during the refinement process.

“I hope it works.”

Zhou Yi weighed the Compass in his hand and fumbled it, almost dropping it on the floor.

Boom!

Thunder manifested in the heavens, as if it would strike down at any moment.

Zhou Yi waved his hand to retrieve the Compass: “Just a little joke, no need to be so touchy—and besides, how could a Supreme Treasure formed by the world’s origin be broken by a fall?”

Boom!

The thunder continued to roar, warning Zhou Yi not to joke around.

“Tch! Heaven has its favorites, no wonder there are no good people left in the world…”

Zhou Yi looked at the increasingly dense thunderclouds, no longer joked around, and waved to throw the Compass, which then disappeared into a crack in the indestructible void before quickly sealing up.

The Compass entered the crack and drifted through the endless void, never to be seen again.

Zhou Yi retracted his spell, and a light screen drooped before him, on which the outer void was manifested.

Dark and deep, with no light at all, it was like a black hole that seemed to swallow all things.

“Worlds are born from the void and return to the void after their destruction!”

Zhou Yi’s gaze was cold as he stared entranced at the pitch-black screen, musing that after countless years, when all worlds perished, he would be the only one left, lonely and living in the void.

Not to mention celebration, there wouldn’t even be a single living creature!

“If I truly remain the only one, then the definition of life and death loses its meaning, as does the purpose of living!”

Suddenly.

The spell’s light screen shattered, no longer displaying any scene.

“Did it find another world so quickly?”

Zhou Yi calculated with his fingers and immediately understood the reason.

The void near the barrier between worlds was chaotic with raging winds, but time and space there were stable.

In the deep void far from the barrier, not only was the concept of space absent, but time could also warp there—one moment in this realm might equal a hundred years in the void.

Or perhaps a hundred years in this realm was but a moment in the void.

This disordered time and space made crossing between realms a luxury, and even the True Immortals of the Immortal Realm would not risk wandering aimlessly in the void.

The original soaring path was discovered by a Golden Immortal ancestor from the Three Immortal Sects, who found a stable passage in the chaotic void and took a tortuous route to the Immortal Realm.

Back then, the great teachings and imperial celestial beings dared not search for the Immortal Realm in the void, precisely because they feared the chaotic temporal and spatial depths of the void.

“Alright, all that’s left is to wait.”

“To wait for the Compass to merge with the barrier, for the spirit fragment to reincarnate. After reincarnation, it still needs to gradually awaken its residual wisdom, and who knows how many times it will die in the process…”

Within the Compass was a method for communication across two realms. Zhou Yi had set it to send out a message with each death, but with the endless void between, it was uncertain how many years would pass before it was received.

Perhaps it would be a hundred years after death before it reached this realm.

And there was even the possibility that it would never return, with the message being swept into the cycles of the void, disintegrating into nothing.

“As a poor Daoist with an unending lifespan, my spirit fragment has the chance to reincarnate countless times. In theory, one day it should be able to construct the gateway to ascension; thus, all I need to do is wait!”

Zhou Yi looked up at the sky and said, “Heaven, I’ve done everything you asked of me, now it’s time for me to seek vengeance!”

Boom—

The rumbling of thunder continued as the clouds in the sky slowly dissipated.

Heaven knew it couldn’t pressure too much. Zhou Yi, with his Everlasting Immortality, was too unique, unparalleled in the entire world, and even within the endless sea of realms, there was no second one like him.

This soul transmigration and the establishment of a shared flight to ascension could only be performed smoothly by Zhou Yi.

Even Golden Immortals, with their long lifespan, could hardly guarantee surviving several hundred soul transmigrations. Once the original body’s lifespan ended and it dissipated in meditation, the scattered souls would also perish, resulting in the loss of the Compass refined from the life source.

The branch of the Jianmu tree underwent changes, transforming into a palm-sized purple Compass, densely inscribed with countless runes, numbering in the billions.

It could be said that Zhou Yi had integrated all the knowledge he had accumulated over ten thousand years into it.

Moreover, to have refined it within a mere hundred years, it was naturally aided by a cheat device—the Heavens weren’t stingy in manifesting the breath of Dao, ensuring that not a single error occurred during the refining process.

“I hope it will be useful.”

Zhou Yi weighed the Compass in his hand, and in a moment of carelessness almost failed to catch it as it nearly crashed to the ground.

Boom!

The thunder in the sky manifested, as though ready to strike at any moment.

Zhou Yi waved his hand to draw the Compass back, “Just a little joke, don’t be so sensitive to teasing. Besides, could a Supreme Treasure refined from the world’s essence even break?”

Boom!

The thunder continued to rumble, warning Zhou Yi not to joke around.

“Tch! Even the Heavenly Father has new favorites and forgets the old, no wonder there are no good people left in the world…”

As Zhou Yi watched the thunderclouds thicken, he stopped joking and threw the Compass with a flick of his hand. The supposedly indestructible void that even True Immortals couldn’t break cracked open with a fissure that quickly sealed itself.

The Compass slipped into the crack, wandering in the endless void, never to be seen again.

Zhou Yi retracted the spell, and a light curtain fell in front of him, displaying the outer void.

Utter darkness, profound depths, devoid of any light, like a black hole that seemed to swallow everything.

“Worlds are born from the void and return to the void after destruction!”

Zhou Yi’s gaze was cold as he stared trance-like at the pitch-black screen. Perhaps after having lived countless years, when all worlds are destroyed, he would be the only one left to exist in loneliness within the void.

Not to speak of celebration, there wouldn’t even be a single living creature left!

“If truly only I remained, then the definitions of life and death would be lost, and so would the meaning of being alive!”

Suddenly.

The magical light curtain shattered, and no more scenes could be seen.

“Have we found Another World so quickly?”

Zhou Yi’s fingers calculated, and he soon understood the reason.

In the void near the barrier between worlds, although there were chaotic winds and currents, space-time remained stable.

The depths of the void far away from the barrier were not only devoid of spatial concepts but even time itself would twist and distort; perhaps while only a moment passed in this world, a hundred years might have passed in the void.

Or it could be that a hundred years in this world is but a moment in the void.

The disordered space-time made traveling between the two realms a luxury, and even the True Immortals of the Immortal Realm would not venture to wander aimlessly in the void.

The Original path of ascension was discovered by a Golden Immortal ancestor of one of the Three Immortal Sects, who found a stable route through the chaotic void and flew to the Immortal Realm in an extremely roundabout way.

In those days, the True Immortals of the great teachings and dynasties did not dare to seek the Immortal Realm within the void, precisely due to the fear of the chaotic space-time in the depths.

“Alright, all that’s left is to wait.”

“To wait for the Compass to merge into the world barrier, to wait for the soul to transmigrate. After transmigration, it still needs to slowly awaken the innate wisdom. Who knows how many times it will die in the process…”

The Compass contained a method for messaging between the two realms. Zhou Yi had set it up so that each time the transmigrated soul died, a message would be sent. However, separated by the endless void, it was uncertain how many years would pass before a message could be received.

Maybe a hundred years after death here, a message would arrive from the other side.

It’s even possible that no messages would ever make it back, getting caught in the void’s cycles and shattering into nothingness.

“I, the humble Daoist, have an infinite lifespan, and my soul has the chance to undergo countless cycles of reincarnation. In theory, one day the gate of ascension will be constructed, so all that’s needed is to wait!”

Zhou Yi looked up to the sky and said, “Heavenly Father, all that you asked me to do is done, and now it’s time for me to seek my revenge!”

Boom!

The thunder resounded, and the dark clouds in the sky slowly dissipated.

Heaven knew not to put too much pressure on Zhou Yi. His Everlasting Immortality made him too unique, unparalleled not only in the world but even in the endless seas of realms.

This soul transmigration and the establishment of a shared path to ascension could only be performed smoothly by Zhou Yi.

Even Golden Immortals, with their long lifespan, could hardly guarantee surviving several hundred soul transmigrations. Once the original body’s lifespan ended and it dissipated in meditation, the scattered souls would also perish, resulting in the loss of the Compass refined from the life source.
