Chapter 2960: Deriving the Path to Immortality, If Not Now, When?

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In an instant… a moment so brief it’s impossible to describe, a time so short that for a normal person, it’s not even enough to form a single thought.

But for an entity of “Heavenly Dao” level, an instant is enough to accomplish countless tasks!

In this fleeting moment, Song Shuhang’s perception and thoughts were elevated to their absolute limits.

Thus, in this moment, his inner monologue could become extraordinarily rich.

He could compress countless thoughts into this “instant” and complete them!

At this moment, time for Song Shuhang had nearly come to a standstill!

[So, this is the data of the Heavenly Dao?]

As Song Shuhang entered the dream of the “Dao Child,” coming into contact with the Heavenly Dao and condensing an immortal body, he couldn’t quite believe it.

The secrets of the Heavenly Dao are the greatest mysteries in the universe. Even when a fragment is revealed, it’s only the tip of an immense iceberg.

Yet now, he had touched the essence of that iceberg.

Although his mind felt like it would explode upon contact, he had indeed accessed the core secrets of the Heavenly Dao through the “Dao Child.”

[To think I could even access this information in a dream!]

If he could tap into the core secrets of the Heavenly Dao in a dream, then there was nothing in the myriad worlds that he, Ba Song, couldn’t access!

From borrowing books, cheating the tribulation, borrowing laws, life experiences, karma, merits, and bosses, Ba Song had endured hardships to finally reach the ultimate secret of the universe.

Fortunately… his foundation was solid!

If he didn’t have the “Immortal Whale Golden Core” in his body, if he didn’t have the golden dragon pattern on his core that Senior White Two had drawn with Heavenly Dao authority, if he hadn’t experienced a “pseudo-immortal state,” or if he hadn’t repeatedly encountered “Heavenly Dao information” in the past… then in the moment he tapped into the Dao Child’s ascension to Heavenly Dao, he would have been utterly destroyed, both in body and soul!

Even if he were to be revived, he would have ended up in eternal slumber, much like the “Undying Lord” of old.

Luckily, his past accumulations had laid the most solid foundation for this moment of “accessing the core secrets of the Heavenly Dao”!

Additionally, his strong pain tolerance allowed him to maintain his thoughts even in the excruciating pain that felt like his brain was about to melt!

And as long as he could maintain some semblance of clear thinking, he could accomplish a great deal in that “instant.”

For example, deriving the “Path to Immortality”!

The information on the two paths to immortality within Song Shuhang’s body was already partially understood. Although he hadn’t fully grasped the “principle of immortality,” he could steadily advance toward the “Immortal” realm and achieve a state of “neither life nor death” as long as he followed the steps. Even if he didn’t fully understand it, the formula was already established; as long as his body followed the formula, the correct answer would naturally emerge.

The other path, related to the “Cultivation Chat System,” required a perspective far beyond that of an ordinary cultivator, one that looked down on the myriad worlds from the pinnacle.

[So, it’s now or never!] Song Shuhang focused all his remaining energy on deducing the “Cultivation Chat System’s Path to Immortality.”

Whether or not he succeeded, this was his only option at the moment!

If not now, then when?

Everything within Song Shuhang was mobilized, contributing to the deduction of the “Cultivation Chat System’s Path to Immortality.”

Compared to the “Neither Life nor Death Path to Immortality,” the “Cultivation Chat System’s Path to Immortality” was the true path that integrated all his potential into one grand avenue.

The 7+1 core, the super Heavenly Dao-level golden dragon pattern that Senior White Two had drawn, the star map on the golden core, the seven saint seals + world master seal, the law of root characters, the law of Hua Bei, the power of karma, the merit network, the immortal whale golden core, the pseudo-immortal body, the Cultivation Chat System—all these unique abilities of Song Shuhang converged at this moment!

The “Neither Life nor Death Path to Immortality” represented Song Shuhang’s singular specialty in the aspect of death.

The “Cultivation Chat System’s Path to Immortality” was the grand avenue that fully realized all of Song Shuhang’s attributes!

In the real world.

“Huh?” Pavilion Master Chu’s hair strand blinked in surprise.

Because suddenly, she sensed that Song Shuhang’s head had heated up to a terrifying degree, hot enough to burn even an immortal.

Moreover…

In that brief moment, she vaguely sensed that Song Shuhang’s body was constantly collapsing and reforming!

“Eighty times? Or ninety? Or maybe even more?” Pavilion Master Chu’s hair strand couldn’t calculate the exact number in that instant.

She only knew that after Song Shuhang’s head began to heat up, his body reached a critical point where it couldn’t bear the strain and started collapsing.

However, today, the “Immortal Whale Golden Core” within Song Shuhang seemed to have found a source of endless energy, continuously charging.

Each time Song Shuhang’s body collapsed, the Immortal Whale Golden Core immediately restored it.

This cycle repeated eighty or ninety times, perhaps even more—possibly over a hundred.

In that brief instant, Song Shuhang’s death count might have increased by three digits.

This was truly the act of burning with life.

“So hot!” Phoenix Claw also cried out, perched on Song Shuhang’s head. “What’s happening? The Heavenly Emperor’s ‘Dementia Sword’ didn’t have a head-heating effect, did it?”

“It’s probably not the Heavenly Emperor’s ‘Dementia Sword.’ That strike might have served as a trigger, guiding Song Shuhang into a deeper transformation,” the Stone Tablet Spirit said slowly.

As Ba Song’s tombstone, it always observed him with a unique perspective.

“For just a moment… there was a trace of Heavenly Dao,” Senior White Two’s voice sounded, crossing the channel between the “Evil Lotus World” and the “Core World.”

As soon as Senior White Two’s voice echoed, the “liquid metal windbreaker” on Song Shuhang’s back fluttered without wind.

The windbreaker was particularly sensitive to this voice!

It felt a deep-rooted loathing for this voice… yet in the deepest recesses of its core, it also felt a certain attachment, an unwillingness to part with this voice, or perhaps envy towards its owner.

In short, its emotions were very complicated.

After fluttering for a moment, the windbreaker calmed down again—it was just an avatar, and now was the time to focus on the main body’s condition.

“The main body is indeed accessing ‘Heavenly Dao’ information.” The windbreaker also spoke, “And I can confirm that the main body is likely retrieving his own power. I can sense a familiar scent in the ‘Heavenly Dao information’ he’s accessing—a scent that belonged to my main body in the past!”

Senior White Two was speechless.

Just by listening to the voice, Senior White Two could detect a strong sense of “pride” in Ball Shuhang’s tone.

Senior White Two’s gaze shifted again to the Nine Nether World, where a black metal mass had condensed to the size of a fist in its source.

He couldn’t wait to see the scene when Ball Shuhang finally revived!

Senior White Two eagerly anticipated the emergence of “Fatty • Pufferfish • Ball.”
