Blue Planet.

In the office of the Metallurgy Group's director in Wujiang City, Zhang Xiaolan was browsing through a pile of documents when a faint commotion echoed from the distance outside the skyscraper.

Zhang Xiaolan instinctively looked up, frowning slightly. "Another mutation? Xiaoqian, find out what's going on over there and see if they need help."

"Yes, Director."

A neat, uniformed woman in the secretary's office outside picked up the phone.

Moments later, Xiaoqian stepped inside. "Director, a residential area in the southern district just had an outbreak. Over a dozen people suddenly transformed into bloodthirsty monsters.

"However, the Federation's enforcement unit was prepared. A team of instructors from Nantian Martial Arts High School arrived on the scene before those monsters could cause serious damage. Professor Pang Long from the martial arts high school asked me to inform you that there's no need for you to intervene. They can handle it."

Zhang Xiaolan nodded calmly. "Good. As long as they can deal with it. You may go."

"Yes, Director." The secretary bowed nervously and left.

Over the past decade, Zhang Xiaolan, who was once an ordinary woman, had also become a mythical powerhouse, thanks to the recurring bloodline feedback she received each time Chen Chu broke through a major realm.

With both her sons now among the top-level powerhouses, Zhang Xiaolan, finding herself idle and restless, sought something to occupy her time. Thus, she became the director of her former state-owned metal company, eventually merging the entire East Xia's metal companies into a multinational group that developed resources from the mythical world.

Years of holding high office had gradually given her the air and presence of a true leader. It was hard to imagine that more than a decade ago, Zhang Xiaolan had merely been an overworked single mother doing endless overtime to raise her two sons.

Unbeknownst to her, high above the Blue Planet, Luo Fei stood quietly in a dimensional rift hidden within the sky, her white skirt fluttering. Although all traces and memories of Chen Chu had vanished from when he had occupied the past, Luo Fei's gaze still unconsciously fell upon this world the moment the mutation outbreak began.

Her father and aunt were also within her range of awareness. Having long merged her heart imprint with the Heavenly Dao, Luo Fei's temperament had become ever more detached. Fewer and fewer things or people in the vast Solar Divine Region could stir her heart.

Meanwhile, on the street outside the Metallurgy Group headquarters, a burly man was roasting sweet potatoes, looking oddly industrious. In this era, seeing anyone selling roasted sweet potatoes already seemed unusual. By the three-year agreement and the erasure of all traces from the past, the Tyrannosaur King no longer had to guard Zhang Xiaolan.

Yet, deep within its subconscious as a mythical beast, Kavadora still felt an unshakable instinct to continue protecting this human woman. Even if it faced an undefeatable enemy, retreat was not an option. It could not explain the feeling, but Kavadora trusted its intuition about the fragments of disjointed memories lingering in its mind.

As Luo Fei watched from the perspective of the Heavenly Dao itself, her expression suddenly changed. A boundless and indescribable Heavenly Dao power descended into her body, causing her aura to surge madly.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The entire Blue Planet's atmosphere, and even the surrounding space, was engulfed in a sea of purple lightning. It raged across the sky, shaking heaven and earth.

"What's happening?"

"Is this... the end of the world!?"

Countless terrified people raised their heads, staring at the endless lightning that blanketed the heavens. The stronger one's cultivation, the greater the pressure felt. Mythical-level beings like Kavadora trembled so violently that their legs nearly gave out.

Kavadora could tell from its divine soul will's perception that even a single strand of that purple lightning could easily crush it to dust.

The Heavenly Feathered and Faerie Races stationed across the Blue Planet, Mars, and Saturn looked up. In the sky, they saw a colossal golden-white figure tens of thousands of kilometers tall slowly emerging from within the storm of purple lightning. It looked half woman, half divine mech.

An intricate white light wheel condensed in the void behind that figure. The moment the light wheel took form, everyone felt as if they were facing the Heavenly Dao itself. An irresistible pressure descended at once.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

It didn't matter if they were ordinary folk, transcendent individuals, mythical powerhouses, or chief gods. The billions of humans on the Blue Planet, along with the Heavenly Feathered and Faerie beings on Mars and Saturn, instinctively fell to their knees before the radiant being. Even Luo Wuyue and the others prostrated themselves before the newly ascended Heavenly Dao.

Only Zhang Xiaolan, who could no longer sense the majesty of the Heavenly Dao, remained standing.

The great upheaval of the Solar Divine Region shook even the mythical world beyond. On the other side, Chen Hu and the others looked up at the void above the golden divine tree, where Luo Fei and the Heavenly Dao wheel behind her were faintly mirrored.

Chen Hu was momentarily stunned. "That's Sister Luo Fei's aura!"

Disbelief flashed in Qian Tian's eyes as he muttered, "How can this be?"

The Solar Divine Region had expanded enormously from Chen Chu's continual ascensions. After more than ten years, its vastness now rivaled that of the Flamewheel Divine Region. Its transcendent energy density was still much lower due to the space-time fluctuations of chaotic energy, but it now matched those of true emperors in terms of hierarchy and rank.

Moreover, Luo Fei possessed the semi-true-spirit-level body of an unknown primordial powerhouse's broken Primordial Azure Sky and had spent over ten years tempering her foundation with the Heavenly Dao's power. The moment she fully became the Solar Divine Region's Heavenly Dao, her realm naturally reached the primordial level.

Qian Tian stood dumbfounded. He had never expected that within the vast Human Federation, the first to reach the primordial level, other than him, would not be Chen Hu or the so-called Child of Fate of the previous era, but Luo Fei, the woman who once piloted Mech No. 1.

Yet even though Luo Fei had become the Heavenly Dao of the Solar Divine Region and her power had become comparable to that of those at the primordial level, she felt not a trace of joy. In the layer of space-time that only she could see, a phantom in a magnificent white imperial robe and an imperial crown stood quietly, gazing at her in silence.

Finally, the phantom said, "Take care of our home."

Just as the phantom turned to leave, Luo Fei, who had already regained all her memories, called out urgently, "Chen Chu, where are you going?"

He turned back, a faint smile on his face. "To battle. Someone needs my help."

The phantom silently faded away.

***

The seventh layer of the Ancient Battlefield.

Within the raging void, a phantom dressed in a white imperial robe appeared out of thin air. It looked at Chen Chu, who sat cross-legged on the head of the Dragon Emperor, and smiled faintly. Afterward, it turned into a stream of light and merged with him.

An aura of perfect harmony suddenly spread from him. The Heavenly Dao divine soul fragment, which had once been separated as a contingency for resurrection, had now returned to him. Chen Chu and the Dragon Emperor grew solemn.

The situation with Heng threatened the very existence of humanity now. There was no more time for Chen Chu to continue cultivating. Even if the two eternal beings slew Heng and countless human civilizations across dimensions perished, it would no longer affect him at his current realm. However, Chen Chu had never walked the path of severed emotions.

He had people he cared about and things he wished to protect in this world. This battle, therefore, was unavoidable. He had to go immediately.

Unfortunately, he couldn't just intervene in the eternal battlefield without using Divine Fusion with the Dragon Emperor. After all, he was still a step away from reaching the undying realm.

The beast would lead their fusion this time. The human would completely vanish, but there was no other way.

The Dragon Emperor already possessed the foundation of a semi-immortal. It had the supreme primordial principles of chaos and destruction, ten divine transformation abilities, eight life-bound abilities, and the Endbringer body.

Chen Chu's World-Ending True King Form contained the supreme principles of Strength and Primordial Genesis, sixteen chaotic light wheels that represented the sources of all principles, and four supreme divine abilities. If it were fused with his double pupils, they could at the very least reach the Ninth Primordial Heaven.

At that level, the Dragon Emperor's terrifying foundation would allow them to battle eternal beings on an even footing. If they could fight alongside Heng, sustaining themselves in combat while gradually tearing apart and devouring the eternal bodies of their enemies, perhaps the Dragon Emperor would be able to ascend into eternity by the end.

Chen Chu was confident of it.

Even eternal beings can be slain!

With that in mind, he lowered his gaze slightly. A voice of divine intent echoed within his consciousness.

"Divine... Fusion!"

Boom!

An immense soul energy erupted outward, shaking the entire seventh-layer universe. The brilliant golden-white light it released illuminated all seven layers of the Ancient Battlefield.

Chen Chu's true form scattered into countless luminous motes within the light of the soul. It then fused with the black-and-red colossal beast, which stretched three light-years long.

A roar of boundless ferocity and majesty echoed through the heavens, shaking countless worlds. Trillions upon trillions of living beings watched in terror as a black-red sun appeared from nothingness, its blazing black-red light enveloping the heavens and earth.

Not only did it illuminate all heavens, but it would also endure for all eternity. This was the unique nature of the Ninth Primordial Heaven. It was an everlasting sun that symbolized true, undying will and immortal radiance shining across the cosmos, which was where it got its "everlasting" name from.

At this point, the two beings had reached the end of the primordial level. They were now only a step away from complete transcendence and eternal existence.

Innumerable beings across the Sea of Chaos, countless worlds, and even the universes of other dimensions beheld the black-red sun that had appeared above their skies. They could faintly make out the silhouette of a vast, ferocious beast standing tall within the sun. Or rather, the sun itself was that colossal beast in essence. Veiled by countless dimensions, it descended as a projection in the form of a sun.

The monstrous silhouette that they vaguely perceived began to transform into a lifeform no one had ever seen before. It donned a black-red imperial crown and a dark imperial robe, and thirty-six resplendent chaotic light wheels revolved behind it.

The six divine regions and all of humanity within the Federation on the Blue Planet bore witness to it. Those on the Blue Planet had just experienced Luo Fei's ascension as the Heavenly Dao and her breakthrough to the primordial level, yet another earth-shattering phenomenon had already engulfed their world.

Every human's blood boiled as the black-red sun appeared beside the golden, crimson, and azure suns above the mythical world's sky. Their genes also trembled.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The auras of countless cultivators surged, wildly absorbing the turbulent transcendent energy around them.

The one who gained the most from this was Chen Hu. Having just reached the semi-primordial level, a dazzling golden light erupted from him and enveloped the human territories for hundreds of millions of kilometers. The golden radiance surged like a sea of clouds, gathering and forming countless sequences of principle chains that radiated unyielding, majestic might.

The moment the aura surged, Qian Tian, who stood deep within the void, was once again dumbstruck. "Primordial!"

In the Flamewheel Divine Region, Xia Youhui stared blankly at the sky, watching the sun-like projection of the colossal beast. He couldn't help but curse aloud when he felt the overwhelming, supreme pressure radiating from it.

"Holy crap, that colossal beast looks so familiar. Don't tell me it's that Thunder Fiery one."

Lin Xue; Lin Yu; and Li Hao, who was still locked in a bloody battle with a giant beast, all froze in disbelief as well.

They immediately recognized the colossal beast. After all, there was no mistaking its three pairs of feathery horns and its ferocious, majestic appearance. It was the terrifying beast that had once walked out from the Blue Planet.

Lin Yu's voice trembled slightly. "Sis, do you feel it too? When I look up at that beast, it's like... I'm looking at Chen Chu."

Lin Xue was startled. "You feel it as well?"

As Chen Chu's power broke through and his aura stirred the flow of time, the traces that had once been erased began to reappear. Memories long wiped from existence resurfaced in the minds of those who had once known him.

He had gathered and occupied the past and future, erased all traces of himself, and illuminated the heavens with his light. Moreover, his light had imprinted itself across endless space-time and countless souls.

The cycle was finally complete.

This was the path of eternity.
