Urban Undying Lord

Chapter 1905: Chapter 1924: He Transformed the Past

"The Great Dao is simple, returning to the truth, the ability to empty the mind and remain untainted by the external world is also a worthy choice," Huang said with a slight smile.

"Life is like the morning dew, like a dream, like an illusion. Even if this is just a dream of mine in the Ancient World, it will forever be remembered in my heart," Ye Xuan whispered.

"Big brother, Brother Huang, must you be so sentimental even when eating?" Xi Yao pouted her small lips.

"Alright, alright, let’s enjoy Xi Yao’s culinary skills," Ye Xuan smiled slightly, inviting Huang to start eating.

The meal quickly concluded, and Xi Yao went to clean the dishes while Ye Xuan and Huang set down the black and white chessboard, engaging in the game in the pavilion.

Snap!

Ye Xuan placed a black piece, speaking lightly, "Time is almost up, isn’t it?"

Snap!

Huang placed a white piece, his voice calm, "What must come eventually comes, everything is destined."

Snap!

Ye Xuan placed another black piece, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, "I’m about to embark on the Nine Transformations Shocking Heaven, completing the Law and Path of this life, yet you will be gone."

Snap!

Huang executed a fierce placement with the white piece, raising his gaze towards Ye Xuan, "You and I are one entity. The so-called disappearance is merely a fixation of your heart."

"In truth, I somewhat regret returning to the Ancient World," Ye Xuan hesitated, the black piece still not placed.

"Your heart is troubled," Huang sighed deeply.

"I never believed in fate, only in myself. Yet here in the Ancient World, everything follows the course of history. I want to change all this, but am powerless," Ye Xuan’s voice gradually grew cold.

"Is it me you cannot let go, or is it Xi Yao, or do you refuse to accept this predetermined conclusion?" Huang asked in a deep voice.

"Humans have seven emotions and six desires, I have never transcended humanity. Though I always stood outside matters, I cannot truly disregard them," Ye Xuan said.

"This is not your era, but mine. Your era lies in future generations. Though your heart is unwilling, you must choose to accept," Huang said solemnly.

"Sometimes I wonder, why do we do this? Is it to break the chains of the Eternal Universe, carrying the hope of all living beings through the ages and moving forward?" Ye Xuan asked, bewildered.

"Not for others, but for ourselves. You and I are selfish people, where then is the grand righteousness of Heaven and Earth?" Huang responded.

"Hahaha."

Ye Xuan stood astonished, then burst into wild laughter.

"You and I are truly one entity, indeed."

Ye Xuan smiled relievedly, and the two resumed their intense chess battle, as the small black and white chessboard gathered a furious momentum, with traces of fierce energy spilling out.

At this moment.

Inside the bamboo house.

Xi Yao rested her chin on her hands, staring blankly at the two playing chess, with a faint touch of sorrow on her face.

The three had lived together in seclusion for many years, and she had not inquired why Ye Xuan and Huang looked identical.

For she slightly sensed something, knowing that even if she asked, the answers were beyond her reach.

But she was keenly aware of one thing: neither Huang nor Ye Xuan, both bore the heavy burden of a mission, perhaps the only ones capable of breaking the curse of Eternal Reincarnation.

The chess game concluded with Huang’s decisive strike, Ye Xuan ultimately lost, yet he felt no disappointment, and instead his entire being became more settled.

Although it appeared they were playing chess, it was actually a form of exchange of Law and Path, and moreover, Huang’s teaching to Ye Xuan.

As the strongest in the Primordial times, even in the Eternal Universe, Huang’s Law and Path provided Ye Xuan endless enlightenment, guiding him gradually towards the Nine Transformations Shocking Heaven.

"Xi Yao is simple-minded, having already touched the Nine Transformations Shocking Heaven Realm, it seems you’ll step into that realm after her," Huang said lightly.

"In terms of talent, I am indeed inferior to her," Ye Xuan replied with a gentle smile.

"You and I are one entity. Your Law and Path of this life are about to complete, yet Desolate Heaven Technique is also our Law and Path. I still have one final Forbidden Heavenly Technique to impart to you."

Huang became uncharacteristically solemn, his gaze fixed intensely on Ye Xuan.

"Which technique?"

Ye Xuan’s expression turned grave, sensing that this Forbidden Heavenly Technique was truly extraordinary, otherwise, his former self wouldn’t regard it with such importance.

"Though I may disappear in the future, my Law and Path persist. Hence, this Forbidden Heavenly Technique is called ’He Transformed the Past,’" Huang stated solemnly.

"He Transformed the Past?"

Boom!

Ye Xuan’s Divine Soul trembled, his eyes shook as he looked towards his former self, for simply hearing these four words filled him with immense shock.

In the past!

Ye Xuan had constantly tried to deduce this Forbidden Heavenly Technique because he had once created the incomplete Forbidden Heavenly Technique ’He Transforms the Future.’

According to his deduction, the future is elusive, yet the past truly exists.

If he could deduce ’He Transformed the Past,’ he would manifest the terrifying cultivation of the strongest in Primordial times.

Unfortunately, Ye Xuan’s Cultivation Realm was insufficient, preventing him from comprehending ’He Transformed the Past.’ Unexpectedly Huang proposed this technique.

"I represent the past, you the present life. When you achieve Nine Transformations Shocking Heaven, you can wield this ’He Transformed the Past,’ truly showcasing the eternal might of Desolate Heaven Technique," Huang’s gaze burned brightly.

"Past, present, future!"

Ye Xuan murmured, his spirit trembling, feeling the farewell intent of his former self, knowing this ’He Transformed the Past’ was his final gift.

"Time is running out. This ’He Transformed the Past’ contains my life’s Law and Path for you to diligently comprehend."

Rumbling!

Huang’s robe fluttered, Heaven and Earth’s weather instantly shifted, and both entered an illusory desolate space where strands of Eternal Desolate Aura were born.

He Transformed the Past!

Like ancient thunder, resembling the multitude of universes, Huang’s voice echoed terrifyingly, and at that moment, he transformed into Desolate Light, starting to evolve his life’s Law and Path!

The so-called ’He Transformed the Past’ is essentially the former self himself, for he is the past, while Ye Xuan is his present life.

This Forbidden Heavenly Technique can only be completed by Ye Xuan, and only Ye Xuan can wield it.

At this moment.

Ye Xuan’s expression was grave as the Desolate Light merged with him, immersing him entirely in his former self’s Law and Path, further comprehending this unparalleled ’He Transformed the Past’ technique.

The past truly exists, the present pushes through eternity, the future is elusive and ethereal.

Ye Xuan, while comprehending this ’He Transformed the Past,’ was also grasping Huang’s lifelong cultivation and Divine Skills, integrating his own Law and Path, gradually achieving a tranquil and enlightened state.

Unknown how long passed, perhaps a day, a year, or maybe an entire era.

Ye Xuan slowly opened his eyes, a trace of desolate color flashed through his gaze, Huang reappeared before him, and they returned to the bamboo forest.

It was as if everything just happened was simply a dream, now Ye Xuan finally awakened, yet he clearly knew he had already mastered this Forbidden Heavenly Technique.

"He Transformed the Past!"

Ye Xuan murmured softly, calmly reflecting on this Forbidden Heavenly Technique, while Huang quietly watched him, eyes filled with a touch of satisfaction.
