Infinite transcendence began with Covering the Sky.

Chapter 429 Open the door

The Kunlun Mountains stretch for millions of miles, their peaks rising and falling dramatically, towering above the heavens alongside the stars, and shrouded in a misty, ethereal aura year-round.

This place is known as the ancestor of all mountains and the home of all gods, with countless legends passed down through the ages, and countless powerful figures have ascended here since ancient times.

Now, Kunlun has become Qi Zhe's dwelling place. One of the mountains has been leveled, and numerous palaces have sprung up on it.

Then an astonishing change occurred: the vast Kunlun Mountains disappeared from the world's sight. Even though people knew they were there, no one could venture deep into them.

"The Heavenly Emperor resides in Kunlun."

People knew this was Qi Zhe's doing; he used his great magical power to hide in Kunlun, intending to stay there for a long time and not wanting anyone to disturb him.

Qi Zhe then calmed down, no longer paying attention to the hustle and bustle of the world, and devoted himself to cultivating his mind and seeking enlightenment in the palace, letting the years pass and time turn.

He ignored the clansmen who had been moved here by the three ancient emperors. Even if there had been some grudges in the past, there was no need to pursue them now.

But the other party didn't think so. The Dragon Girl, who had once been Qi Zhe's adversary, decided to visit him to apologize shortly after his return.

"Thank you, Heavenly Emperor, for extending my father's life."

In the empty palace, the Dragon Goddess appeared reserved and somewhat fearful of Qi Zhe, who sat high above her, lacking the arrogance she once possessed in the Eastern Wilderness.

She wore purple and gold armor, her body was slender and tall, her purple hair cascaded down her back, and her face, though not arrogant, was still stunningly beautiful.

"no need to thank me."

Qi Zhe remained calm upon hearing this. He sat upright on the high place, watching the other person. The other person's actions and thoughts could not be hidden from him. At this moment, Qi Zhe shook his head.

"Then I thank the Heavenly Emperor for sparing my life back then." The Dragon Girl murmured upon hearing this. She knew that Qi Zhe was no ordinary person and no longer cared about the grudges of the past.

In the past, Qi Zhe declared that he would purge Wanlong Nest, which made this great royal family uneasy, simply because Qi Zhe was already a quasi-emperor at that time.

Later, when Qi Zhe became emperor, the Wanlongchao lineage was filled with despair, feeling that disaster was imminent, and could only helplessly wait for Qi Zhe to come to their door.

At that time, the Dragon Girl knew she couldn't escape. Although the universe was vast, even ancient imperial weapons couldn't hide from the Great Emperor's calculations. It could be said that her life and death were in Qi Zhe's hands.

Fortunately, things took a turn for the better more than a hundred years ago when Qi Zhe won over the Ancient Emperor of Wanlong. After the news spread, many people in Wanlong Nest breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that they are allies, the Dragon Girl is able to get so close to Qi Zhe that she can't help but feel a little dazed.

"It's all in the past, I don't care anymore."

Qi Zhe shook his head. He knew that in the Dragon Girl's heart, he was still the same person he had always been, and he couldn't rest easy about it.

But as an emperor, if he had clung to the past, he wouldn't have achieved such success; past grudges really meant nothing to him.

The Dragon Girl finally breathed a sigh of relief, then cupped her hands and said, "Past grievances have been resolved. Today, I would like to bid farewell to the Heavenly Emperor."

At this moment, she expressed her thoughts, stating that she did not want to remain dormant in the Kunlun Mountains, but wanted to continue her battle in the starry sky.

As the most favored daughter of the Dragon Emperor, the Dragon Girl's talent is beyond question. It is nothing compared to Qi Zhe, but it also depends on who she is compared to.

Her cultivation speed is extremely fast. If given another two or three hundred years, she will reach the Quasi-Emperor realm, and she can rise to prominence in a thousand years.

"Very well, I hope that when I see you again, you will have caught up with your father's generation!"

Her decision to leave Kunlun was not unexpected by Qi Zhe. He spoke up at this moment, and at the same time thought of Huang Xudao.

Huang Xudao had never been to Kunlun. Blood Phoenix Ancient Emperor said that the other party had great ambitions, was unwilling to grow up under his father's wing, and was currently engaged in a fierce battle in the starry sky.

After meeting Qi Zhe, the Golden Goddess also chose to leave directly, as these three ancient princesses still had the desire to pursue the ultimate goal of cultivation.

The hall fell silent. The departure of the two ancient princesses caused no disturbance. Finally, Qi Zhe also left. "Good brother, this humble Taoist has arrived."

However, some people felt that this should not be the case. Duan De, who had followed Qi Zhe to Kunlun, appeared and stroked his chin while looking Qi Zhe up and down in Qi Zhe's backyard.

This is Qi Zhe's private courtyard, his secluded retreat. Even Yao Xi wouldn't come here to disturb him on ordinary days.

Only Duan Dehui would have the audacity to come here. At this moment, he walked up to Qi Zhe and stared at the seated Qi Zhe for a long time.

"So you're just letting them go? Aren't you going to let them have a few imperial sons? I was hoping to raise one to pass on the Daoist teachings," Duan De said the next moment.

He was utterly shameless. His very first words made Qi Zhe lose his composure. He actually set his sights on Qi Zhe's offspring, wanting to use the imperial son to inherit the Daoist teachings.

"What the hell is 'Imperial Prince'? You'd better wake up!" Qi Zhe was utterly astonished and couldn't help but stare at Duan De with a warning look on his face.

Qi Zhe felt that his image in Duan De's heart, even if it wasn't great, wasn't that bad either. He was the Emperor, not some kind of harem horse.

"Just kidding," Duan De said innocently, then got up and made his escape, saying, "I'll take my leave now!"

This thing came quickly and left just as fast, rushing down the mountain in the blink of an eye and starting to search for ancient sites everywhere in the Kunlun Mountains, as if it had arrived in paradise.

He felt that Qi Zhe was just talking; even if he looked down on the ancient princess, he would eventually have a litter of children.

He wasn't in a hurry at all; he was just waiting for the day he could abduct one and then pass on his amazing Taoist techniques.

There's something wrong with this thing!

Qi Zhe watched Duan De leave, a strange light flashing in his eyes. He felt that Duan De's purpose in coming here must be impure, and that his memories might have been restored.

However, Qi Zhe was too lazy to care anymore. He simply sat cross-legged in the courtyard and meditated in silence on the path to immortality.

The entire Kunlun Mountains seemed to have disappeared along with Qi Zhe. Only the sounds of Duan De and some birds could be heard in the mountains. Everything here was quiet.

After extending their lives, the three ancient emperors sealed themselves away once more, leaving only their divine senses to watch over everything in the mountains, intending to observe the changes of time.

But the world will not stop its clamor just because Qi Zhe has gone into hiding. Various great battles continue in the universe, and geniuses are constantly rising.

Then came the long passage of time, the grass and trees withered and flourished again, the seasons turned, and generations turned to dust.

Two hundred years have passed, and geniuses in the universe have begun to become quasi-emperors. Three hundred years after Qi Zhe attained enlightenment, the world has ushered in a period of prosperity.

But none of this mattered to Qi Zhe. He walked alone on the path to immortality, and finally sat down cross-legged in front of the gate in his heart.

"The Gate to Ascension"

The Gate of Ascension stands in the darkness, undisturbed by the passage of time. The towering gate seems to stand in the river of time, with endless time flowing through its cracks.

"It's only been less than five hundred years, yet that realm has already ended an era, and the world has been utterly destroyed once again!"

Qi Zhe was somewhat dazed. The scene inside the Gate of Ascension was astonishing. He vaguely remembered the scene hundreds of years ago, after the end of three thousand eras.

Now, with the new era beginning anew, another great catastrophe has started. He felt that this was another three thousand-year cycle, and everything was repeating itself.

"You may go!"

At that moment, a booming voice rang out from within the gate, and the gate to ascension opened wide, revealing a world on the verge of destruction to Qi Zhe.

Calvin, don't be surprised by the plot about the immortal world; I've already written about it before.

Forgotten is no big deal, just go back and take a look. Readers who skipped chapters can just read through them in a bit of a daze for now.
