After confirming his target, Ji began his long years of closed-door training.

In just a hundred thousand years, he had reached the Innate Golden Immortal Realm. The Crossing the Tribulation was earth-shattering, attracting many Great Powers to come and watch.

With great enthusiasm, Ji directly challenged them, defeating all contenders and making a name for himself in the Primordial Emperor Domain.

Ji then began traversing the world, continuously encountering people and events, which presented Gu An with many choices.

As before, Gu An could not involve himself in matters of affection, directly refusing them, but he always managed to meddle in other matters.

No matter how much his cultivation level increased, Ji remained true to his original intentions, ignoring emotions and focusing solely on becoming stronger.

The Primordial Emperor Domain was far more vast than the Taiwei Great World. As Ji waged battles along the way, this path seemed endless, with numerous Great Emperors, Emperor Clans, Imperial Dynasties, and Sects constantly appearing in the prompts, keeping Gu An thoroughly entertained.

[At the age of 321,642, you were at the World Sword Mansion gaining Sword Enlightenment when the Ancient Sword Soul emerged, appearing before you, wishing to become your master. Would you choose to agree?]

No!

Ji had no need for external aids; if this Sword Soul caused any trouble in the future, he would have to clean up the mess, which was too bothersome.

Gu An hoped Ji could maintain his unattached state so that he could focus solely on becoming stronger.

After rejecting the Ancient Sword Soul, Ji still encountered troubles as the World Sword Mansion tried to forcibly retain him, resulting in unpleasantness and a fierce battle where he relied on his formidable strength to break through the encirclement.

After leaving the World Sword Mansion, Ji did not linger. He found a way to become stronger through battles, and even without frequently killing enemies, his cultivation level was rapidly growing.

A million years later, Ji stepped into the Heaven-Balancing Golden Immortal Realm, becoming an unparalleled powerhouse whose fame was unmatched.

Later, Ji encountered a person who was the founder of the Emperor Clan he sought revenge against, but he was still too young. Seeing him kneeling before him, begging for mercy, Ji hesitated whether to let him go.

Gu An made the decision for him, letting him go.

The invincible should not fear the birth of new enemies, and besides, changing the past related to oneself risks Karma Retribution.

Ji spared the Primordial Ancestor of the Emperor Clan, and he had no further regrets about the Primordial Emperor Domain.

After staying in this realm for millions of years, sweeping through the strong, undefeated, he was content, and he used the Time-Space Technique to leave.

Upon returning to the River of Destiny, Ji was still unable to escape its bounds. There was a powerful force in the dark that restricted him, but he was not discouraged as it was this force that helped him evade the death calamity. What he needed to do was forge a path to life himself.

He used the Time-Space Technique again, arriving in another Great World, which was unfamiliar to him. He was uncertain if he had returned to his timeline, but he did not care and resumed his path of battle.

Seeking strong adversaries, challenging them, achieving victory, repeating the cycle. Just like before, initially, he caused much trouble, but as he defeated more opponents and never killed those without grievances, the beings of this Great World began to admire him.

Gu An continuously faced choices, the process being very relaxed. Since achieving the Golden Immortal Realm, Ji had never been embarrassed, defeating whoever he fought against, no matter how many enemies came, he could repel them.

Indeed, it was defeating, not retreating!

Gu An could distinctly feel a forward momentum emerging from Ji, something that past Reincarnation Bodies like Yang Xian, Long Zhan, and Guxuan You lacked.

After sweeping the world, Ji used the Time-Space Technique once more.

Unable to leave the River of Destiny, he continued to use the Time-Space Technique, wherever he went, he would conquer, and only leave when he had no battles left to fight.

After sweeping through the Five Directions Plane and Great Worlds, Ji achieved the Taiqing Golden Immortal Realm!

After thirty applications of the Time-Space Technique, Ji attained the Heaven-Opening Daluo Immortal Realm!

Finally, he could break free from the constraints of the River of Destiny, returning to the Path of the Great Dao, and then he encountered Taihao.

[At the age of 2,379,662, you met Taihao, an old opponent. Taihao challenged you, and you sensed a strong temporal cause and effect in Taihao, realizing he might have experiences similar to yours. Taihao was also in the Heaven-Opening Daluo Immortal Realm, and you gladly accepted the challenge, commencing a prolonged battle.]

[At the age of 2,379,694, your battle with Taihao led to the collapse of the Great Dao.]

[At the age of 2,379,695, you finally defeated Taihao. Taihao was disheartened but genuinely admired your strength, conceding wholeheartedly. He invited you to journey along the Path of the Great Dao together. Do you choose to agree?]

No!

Having been sworn brothers for a lifetime is enough; being Taihao’s brother is a deadly affair!

Gu An decisively made the choice, secretly pleased. As expected of Ji, Taihao had been defeated by Ji a second time, even though it was clearly more challenging this time, but a win is a win.

Far better than Guxuan You, whose greatest achievement was mutual destruction.

[You refused Taihao’s request, and Taihao felt regret, agreeing to meet again for another battle. You gladly accepted, praising him as still your greatest opponent, which pleased Taihao, and you both parted ways.]

After parting with Taihao, Ji left the Path of the Great Dao, planning to return to the Taiwei Great World. Upon discovering that time continued to flow there during his time travel, albeit not as quickly as during his travels.

Ji returned to the Taiwei Great World and met Shengtian. Upon learning of his cultivation level, Shengtian was gratified, and Ji discovered that Shengtian was also a Heaven-Opening Daluo Immortal.

Shengtian invited Ji to participate in a Holy Court meeting. During the meeting in the grand hall, upon hearing that someone from the Holy Court was captured by the Nine Yin Divine Mansion, Ji volunteered, willing to make a trip to the Underworld, and after a moment’s hesitation, Shengtian agreed to send him to the Underworld.

Seeing the words Nine Yin Divine Mansion, Gu An couldn’t help but think of Guxuan You’s life.

Encountering this force again, it’s truly been around for a long time.

Speaking of which, Guxuan You harbored a deep-seated enmity with the Nine Yin Divine Mansion, persisting even to death.

This time, let’s see if Ji can avenge him.

Before the Nine Yin Divine Mansion, Ji declared his origins, but was expelled by their keepers; he chose to force his way in.

Having stood for countless years, the Nine Yin Divine Mansion was not easy to shake, as they also possessed Daluo Immortals.

Relying on the Time-Space Technique, even if unable to defeat the Mansion’s strong warriors, Gu An believed Ji could escape alive.

But Ji was tougher than expected. Even forcing out Miao Zhen Daluo Immortal, he insisted on fighting, and that Miao Zhen Daluo Immortal couldn’t defeat him.

Eventually, the Pavilion Master of the Nine Yin Divine Mansion was alarmed, personally coming out to stop the fight, agreeing to return the Holy Court disciple, thus resolving the conflict.

Afterward, the Pavilion Master invited Ji as a guest. Gu An declined on Ji’s behalf, but the Pavilion Master was too enthusiastic, holding onto Ji’s hand, leaving him no choice but to agree.

The Pavilion Master hosted a grand banquet, gathering many Great Powers of the Nine Yin Divine Mansion to introduce Ji, praising him as possessing the potential to transcend and offering his daughter in marriage to Ji. Without waiting for Gu An’s choice, Ji directly refused.
