If I become a saint, a celestial official will summon me to raise horses.

Chapter 1029 One Sword Shatters

Qin Chuang was born into the mortal world, into a farming family. His life should have been ordinary, but when he was fifteen, he went up the mountain to chop wood and met an old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist priest was seriously injured. Feeling sorry for him, he handed over the dry food and water he was carrying to the old Taoist priest. The old Taoist priest accepted it silently without saying a word.

When he came down the mountain, the old Taoist priest had already disappeared.

Qin Chuang was puzzled, but he didn't pay it any mind.

A month later, the old Taoist priest came to his village, wanting to take him as his disciple and lead him to cultivate immortality.

That was the happiest moment in Qin Chuang's life. His family was proud of him, and the villagers envied him. Everyone hoped that he could successfully cultivate immortality and bring them all to heaven.

However, the path of cultivation was far from as simple as Qin Chuang had imagined. On the way back to his sect with the old Taoist, they were attacked several times. In the end, the old Taoist died tragically one night while trying to save him. He carried the old Taoist's belongings and went through many hardships before finally arriving at the old Taoist's sect, Qingshan Cliff.

Although Qingshan Cliff took him in, it did not give him any important positions, nor did it investigate the old Taoist's death. He could only suppress his hatred.

After thirty years of cultivating immortality, he barely managed to enter the realm of cultivation. When he returned to his hometown, he found that his village had long been abandoned. It turned out that the village had been massacred thirty years ago, and no one survived.

Qin Chuang guessed that it was the work of his master's enemies. He was heartbroken and didn't know whether to be grateful to his master or resent him.

He saved the old Taoist priest and gained the opportunity to cultivate immortality, but he also lost his family as a result.

Regardless, he still has to try to survive. At least the hatred between his master and his family is still there, and he must take revenge!
However, the path to immortality is extremely cruel, and due to the limitations of natural talent, mortals can hardly break through it even if they spend their entire lives.

When Qin Chuang was nearly two hundred years old, he still did not have the power to take revenge. But over the years, he learned who his enemies were and what power they wielded. The gap between them filled him with despair.

The older one gets, the stronger the desire for revenge becomes, sometimes even to the point of obsession.

Until one year, a meteor fell from the sky and landed right in the mountain forest where Qin Chuang lived in seclusion. He cautiously went to investigate and found a cauldron that was half a person tall.

He felt that this cauldron was extraordinary, so he dripped his blood to bind it to him, and it actually worked.

This cauldron is called the Tongtian Cauldron, a primordial treasure.

Qin Chuang didn't understand what a Chaos Treasure was, but he had many more memories in his mind, such as the Tongtian Cauldron being able to restore everything to its most prosperous state.

So he began to buy up large quantities of discarded, low-priced medicinal herbs and restore their lost value through the Tongtian Cauldron. Not only that, the Tongtian Cauldron could also help him to strengthen his tendons and marrow, and when he was seriously injured, he could also recover quickly with the help of the Tongtian Cauldron.

The Tongtian Cauldron changed Qin Chuang's life.

He cultivated to the first-class level of the dynasty in just a hundred years, and then successfully took revenge. He originally wanted to wipe out his enemy's entire family, but when he saw an infant, he softened and in the end, he only killed the direct murderer.

After letting go of his obsession, he left his homeland and went to a distant place to cultivate again in a place where no one knew him, accumulating a large amount of cultivation resources that had been discarded or sold at low prices.

A thousand years later, Qin Chuang broke through to the Void Transcending Realm, a level no one in the world had ever reached, without anyone knowing. He no longer kept a low profile and began to enjoy the ultimate bliss in the mortal world.

However, this good fortune did not last long. One day, the Heavenly Gate opened wide, and a group of cultivators from the Upper Realm descended to hunt down a mysterious cultivator. Qin Chuang witnessed their unparalleled power and was deeply stimulated.

He was very fortunate that he had not yet become famous, and with the help of the Heavenly Cauldron, he evaded the search by the cultivators of the upper realm.

Knowing that there was a wider world out there, Qin Chuang once again focused on his cultivation.

The world changes. Three thousand years later, Qin Chuang's cultivation level reached a point that this world could no longer bear, and he was forced to ascend.

He arrived in a more expansive world, known as the Earthly Realm, a place where countless worlds converge.

As the strongest being in his own realm, Qin Chuang discovered upon arriving in the Earthly Realm that his cultivation was insignificant, prompting him to lament the endless and boundless path of the Great Dao.

In the years that followed, Qin Chuang discovered that his Heavenly Cauldron had many wonderful uses, and even in the Earthly Realm, no treasure could compare to it. He continued to cultivate in the same way as before.

Thirty thousand years later, Qin Chuang entered the first-class realm of the Earthly Realm. However, during a Daoist conference, he discovered that there was an even more vast world above the Earthly Realm.

Qin Chuang continued to cultivate diligently, constantly pursuing higher realms and greater horizons.

With the help of the Heavenly Cauldron, Qin Chuang finally broke free from the Earthly Realm and arrived at a higher realm, which was called the Tai Liang Immortal Realm.

Having endured so many hardships, Qin Chuang's Dao heart had become stable. After arriving in the Tai Liang Immortal Realm, he was no longer surprised and smoothly integrated into it.

Millions of years later, Qin Chuang became the Tai Liang Immortal Ancestor.

His realm transcends that of all living beings; he controls the past and the future, and countless heavens and universes are within his sight.

Even so, he can still make continuous progress. As long as the Tongtian Cauldron has enough resources, it can help him continuously improve his talent. When cultivating inside the Tongtian Cauldron, he can even comprehend the Great Dao.

His cultivation level rose higher and higher, and he became a mythical figure. He even traveled back in time and reversed the fate of his family. However, such cultivation eventually made him feel empty, because he was no longer the woodcutter from the mountain village. His family could no longer maintain their previous attitude towards him.

He severed his karmic ties with his family and became the revered master of the immortal path.

Over the long years, he forgot about time and devoted himself to understanding the Dao. His understanding of the Dao deepened, and he even came into contact with the origin of the Dao.

The Great Dao's origin transformed into the Azure Sky, the Azure Sky became a tree, and the tree opened up the universe. The Tai Liang Immortal Realm where he was located was just a branch of this Tree of Creation. He did not become discouraged because of this, but instead became invigorated and had a stronger goal for cultivation.

Until one day, Cangming summoned him through the Great Dao, saying that there was an extremely evil being that wanted to destroy the Great Dao. Cangming summoned the great powers of the various immortal realms to go and protect the Great Dao. He hesitated for a moment and then agreed.

As he stepped onto the Great Dao, he saw the figures of powerful beings from the past, as well as his disciples from the future, who were already no less capable than he was in the present.

Countless figures appeared on the avenue, all heading in the same direction as him.

Qin Chuang stepped into a burst of intense light and arrived in a dark red void. He saw an incomparably enormous divine tree, and he immediately recognized it as the Cangming Creation Tree.

Before he could think any further, he saw a figure in white robes wielding a sword and moving swiftly. No one could stop him, and no supernatural power could halt his advance.

He took out the Heavenly Cauldron, preparing for defense.

Sudden.

The white-clad figure appeared out of thin air in front of him and slashed with a sword.

too fast!
Qin Chuang had never encountered such an enemy before. What he found even more unacceptable was that his most trusted Tongtian Cauldron was shattered by a single sword strike. The scene before his eyes turned into countless fragments. Even on his deathbed, he kept thinking that it was impossible; his Tongtian Cauldron could not have been shattered like that.
