Chapter 683: Chapter 683 – The Return

All the forces in this world had been suppressed, leaving behind only the Hao Hua sect.

Of course, this was not the end. The world connected to the Immortal Sect was far from just the one in front of them. After this world was digested, they could continue to expand and take control of the other worlds.

However, this was what would happen in future. After taking over this world, Chen Heng did not leave. Instead, he quietly stayed in this world.

Another thousand years passed. He tried to comprehend the Dao and the unique laws of this world. Then, he sublimated his Dao and turned it into a living Immortal God.

After a thousand years, a terrifying aura boiled in the Hao Hua sect. The surging Dao covered the sky and covered the earth. It fell one after another like heavy rain.

The vast and terrifying aura circulated and shook all directions, causing the cultivators within the Hao Hua sect to feel terrified. They couldn’t help but take their people far away from this place and watch from a distance to avoid being affected by it.

At this moment, that place had already become an ocean of laws. The divine chains of order blotted out the sky and covered the earth spanned across it.

There was a faint flash of lightning in midair, and the illusory images of Immortal Gods appeared one after another. Each phantom exuded Immortal Gods’ majesty, making people feel terrified.

“What is that?”

In the distance, a Heavenly Venerate of the Hao Hua sect was trembling. Under the phantoms, he felt that his entire body could not be controlled. He could not help but want to kneel.

In the distance, the lightning flashed past. It was very clear in the sky.

In the center of the Haohua sect, Chen Heng sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.

Thunder rumbled in all directions and landed in this place. However, he didn’t care. He just closed his eyes and sensed the terrifying Qi in the surroundings and the profound Dao rhythm.

At this moment, the world seemed to have come to a stop. Everything was fading away, surrounding Chen Heng in front of him. Everything was flowing, whether it was the sun, the Moon, the galaxy, or anything else.

Movement and stillness, life and death were constantly changing. All sorts of enlightenment poured into Chen Heng’s mind, causing him to enter a unique state of enlightenment. It was very special.

Rumble!

In mid-air, the lightning finally descended. It struck his body, causing ripples to form around him. However, it wasn’t very effective. After thousands of years of cultivation, Chen Heng’s body had long since become indestructible and had been tempered to the extreme.

No matter how the lightning struck him, he remained unmoved. He treated it as a unique form of tempering and used the lightning to temper himself. This was a shocking move, and it was very dangerous for others.

After all, the lightning in front of him was far too terrifying. It had reached a level that was even higher than that of a supreme Heavenly Venerate.

“What exactly is this?”

Around them, people could sense what was happening, and their faces filled with shock. At this moment, they couldn’t help but ask, “Is the sect leader undergoing tribulation?”

“Could it be that the sect leader is about to break through and become a living Immortal God?”

It was common knowledge that when a cultivator ascended to the next level, they had to undergo tribulation and baptism of the power of creation. Only then would they be able to enter the next level and be recognized by the heavens and earth.

And with Chen Heng’s current cultivation base, what level would his cultivation base be at if he were to undergo another tribulation?

Just thinking about this matter was enough to make one feel terrified. At the same time, the people around them could not help but look forward to it. At this moment, their eyes were staring straight ahead, unwilling to let go of any details.

They were excited, hoping to see a living Immortal God appear. Very quickly, to their disappointment, the lightning tribulation appeared in midair, but it disappeared again.

The Dao rhythm that was emitted from the surroundings also slowly disappeared. Everything returned to a calm state without the slightest ripple.

Everything seemed to return to normal. Chen Heng slowly opened his eyes and withdrew from the deep level of comprehension. He looked at the world around him and sighed. “What a pity…”

He stood up from his original position. His appearance seemed to have changed. If someone familiar with Chen Heng stood here, they would be able to notice Chen Heng’s current situation.

All over his body, a brand new radiance appeared. It was extremely bright, completely different from before. A higher level aura was faintly circulating, appearing just like that.

Chen Heng sighed. “In the end, I’m still a little lacking.”

Just now, he had attempted to break through. He wanted to follow the hints You Rou had given him, condense his Dao principles, sublimate everything within his body, and condense them into an Immortal God’s Dao principle.

This path was very difficult for others. They didn’t even know where to start. They didn’t know what to do. But for Chen Heng, although it was equally difficult, at least he had a clear path to learn from.

There was still divinity in his body. The divinity was obtained from the World of Gods. Its existence was similar to the Immortal God’s Dao in this world. It was also sublimated from the Dao. It could be said that it was essentially the same thing.

Chen Heng possessed divinity. It was equivalent to showing him the way forward. He would not be as blind as the others and could only explore in a daze.

Even so, Chen Heng still failed. But this was not another problem. It was just that his accumulation was insufficient.

To condense the Immortal God’s Dao, one needed to refine and sublimate one’s own Dao. After that, it could be refined into one. Only then could it be done.

During this process, if one’s accumulated power of laws was insufficient, then it was naturally impossible to complete this kind of sublimation. Chen Heng was like this at this moment.

Strictly speaking, he had comprehended many people’s Dao principles along the way. He had also once deeply understood the power of a few Sky Heavenly weapons and comprehended the Dao charm and the embodiment of the laws within. His accumulation was already extremely deep and terrifying.

But even so, it was still not enough. It could be seen just how abnormal the accumulation requirements for condensing the Immortal God’s Dao Principles were.

It was no wonder that since ancient times, after the extinction of the Immortal God, not many people had ascended to the immortal God realm.

“Forget it…”

After pondering for a moment, Chen Heng sighed in his heart. According to the current situation, if willing, he could slowly accumulate in this world and become an immortal God without too much of a problem.

After all, he had divinity. With this as a benchmark, he had already pointed out the direction of advancing to an Immortal God, so there wouldn’t be any problems.

And in his case, as long as the direction wasn’t wrong, he would be able to reach the end sooner or later if he continued to walk so resolutely. Unfortunately, there wasn’t enough time.

“If I continue to settle down in this world, I will be able to complete my advancement, but I will miss the huge opportunity in the World of Gods…”

Chen Heng stood on the spot and looked at the void in front of him as he muttered to himself. To him, the world of gods’ changes couldn’t be missed.

And if Chen Heng continued to stay in this world, who knew when he would be able to complete his ascension.

The accumulation required to condense the Immortal God’s Dao was simply too huge. If he were to rely on the speed of his accumulation, then Chen Heng estimated that he would need at least forty thousand to fifty thousand years to complete his ascension.

Using forty thousand to fifty thousand years to ascend to the Immortal God realm?

This speed was not considered slow. After all, this was an immortal god and not some ordinary character. Even among the Heavenly Venerates, it was not rare to have a cultivation base that measured ten thousand years.

Not to mention an Immortal God. Any Immortal God was the most outstanding person in an era. They had to absorb an entire fortune to be able to achieve it. They were not ordinary people.

If Chen Heng did not possess divinity and had the help of the Sky Heavenly Weapons, the heaven-cleaving sword, and the Immortal Sect, he probably would not be confident to say that he would be able to ascend within forty thousand to fifty thousand years successfully.

And forty thousand to fifty thousand years, how much time would be converted into the World of Gods? The flow of time in this world was not bad; it was changing every moment.

In the beginning, one day passed in the World of Gods is equivalent to two years passed in this world. But now, the flow of time in this world has changed. Now, one day passed in the World of Gods is equivalent to ten years passed in this world.

This kind of time flow was huge. It was very rare among the many times that Chen Heng had experienced.

But it was not enough. Because according to the time ratio of this world, by the time Chen Heng became an Immortal God, more than ten years had passed in the World of Gods.

More than ten years did not seem to be a long time. But this also depended on the time. The change that the World of Gods was about to usher in was in these ten years.

Once this period passed, Chen Heng would return to the World of Gods. What he would have to face would probably be a group of gods who had already returned to their divine positions and returned to their peak.

The environment would be completely different by then. In particular, Chen Heng had spread the mark of the simulator in the World of Gods, using the powerhouses of the World of Gods to collect simulation points.

With the characteristic of the strong eating everything, those marks had most likely fallen into the hands of the gods’ forces, and it was only a matter of time before they fell into the hands of the gods.

This would greatly speed up the recovery speed of the gods, and the time needed to explain the arrival of the great world would be even shorter.

Sitting on the spot, Chen Heng pondered for a long time. In the end, he sighed and chose to give up.

In this world, he originally wanted to try to sublimate himself and condense his own Immortal God’s Dao. Although his body had divinity, it was, after all, converted by the simulator. It was not condensed by himself, so it lacked a specific process.

Chen Heng originally wanted to make up for this flaw, but now it seemed to be unrealistic. Some things could be done in the future, but once the opportunity was missed, it might not come again.

Various thoughts flashed through Chen Heng’s mind, and he decided. Next, he did not appear within the Hao Hua sect but announced his orders.

He entrusted the affairs of the Hao Hua sect to others. Then, he announced that he was going into seclusion in the void, preparing to leave this world and return to the World of Gods.

As for everything in this world, with the incarnation of Philip around, Chen Heng was very relieved and did not have any doubts.
