Jiang Zhiwei rummaged in his sleeve and casually tossed a rusty iron piece to Lu Yan.
"Use your authority; this item will guide you to that special version's path."
Lu Yan reached out to catch the iron piece. His Divine Sense scanned it but found nothing unusual; it seemed just like an ordinary piece of iron.
"May I ask, First Inheritor, what exactly is the special version you speak of?"
"I've never been there, so how would I know?" Jiang Zhiwei replied with an unjustifiable yet confident demeanor, leaving Lu Yan momentarily speechless.
After scratching his head and pondering briefly, Jiang Zhiwei continued:
"Regarding this version, I can only give you one piece of advice.
Though it is filled with all sorts of demons and monsters, it happens to perfectly complement your own deficiencies.
Although I can temporarily help you resolve the latent threat posed by the undying Longevity Celestial Venerable, remember that This World's Only One is not just Him, and you can't always return to the Xianxia version. This place may not be a blessed land for you.
Seize this opportunity; it's your best chance to grasp your future destiny."
Longevity Celestial Venerable!
Lu Yan felt a chill in his heart, learning for the first time the title of This World's Only One in the Longevity version.
In response to Jiang Zhiwei's admonition, Lu Yan solemnly replied, "Thank you, First Inheritor!"
Although this Jiang Zhiwei was enigmatic and seemed to harbor some purpose, it was undeniable that so far, he had shown no malice towards him.
Even their transaction regarding the special version was simply for mutual benefit.
After their brief exchange, the Ancestral Hall once again sank into silence.
Jiang Zhiwei leaned lazily against the altar, seemingly waiting for that moment to arrive, while Lu Yan aimlessly looked around.
As time passed gradually, the version update process reached 99.9%, and Lu Yan's gaze swept over the tattered altar, suddenly noticing the book in Jiang Zhiwei's hands.
Focusing intently, he saw four large characters written prominently on the book's cover: "New Heavenly Dao Discussion."
Lu Yan was taken aback and was about to ask.
But just then, the 99.9% version update indicator moved again.
In the next moment, the world became stagnant, and a string of words appeared before Lu Yan.
[Xianxia version ended, version change value: 2%]
The text flickered only for a moment, and then another message appeared.
[Version update progress is full. You may choose to upgrade from the following versions. Follow current novels on 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝔫𝔢𝔱
Longevity version: Little...
Longevity version: ...Friend...
Before the text for the Longevity version completely appeared, Jiang Zhiwei, in frozen time, revealed a lazy smile.
In the next moment, Jiang Zhiwei slowly raised his right hand, and his joined sword fingers pierced through the stagnant time and space, directly pointing at Lu Yan's body, reversing the very laws of reality at his fingertips.
The Human Emperor Banner, pressed down, transformed into a stone Profound Vagina Door that collapsed with a roar, countless shards of Dao Principles scattered within Lu Yan.
As the Profound Vagina Door crumbled, the version options before Lu Yan's eyes suddenly twisted and deformed into chaotic garbled symbols, as if forcibly rewritten by some supreme power. The fabric of reality was torn, revealing the essence of oblivion beneath.
Yet this sword did not end; a brilliant sword light crossing time and space had already manifested within the frozen Xianxia version.
In each hidden world beyond the mortal realm, great beings cast down their gazes. However, the moment their eyes touched upon that brilliant sword light, they quickly withdrew.
The sword light was like a celestial river spanning time immemorial, cutting through endless time and space, tracing back every thread of causality tied to the Profound Vagina Door.
The massive sword scar pierced through the thousands of miles between the Cyan Simurgh Sect and Mang Mountain Branch. In its wake, space shattered, time became chaotic, and the realm that once manifested the Profound Vagina Door was completely obliterated, the entire spacetime buried into nothingness.
Within the Cyan Simurgh Sect, dozens of Golden Core and Nascent Soul True Monarchs began to recall missing memories. As the stone door, forgotten by cognition, appeared in their awareness, the brilliant sword light eradicated everything.
Ten people, a hundred people, a thousand... a million, tens of millions, within a span of just a few months, tens of millions of beings were polluted by the concept of the Profound Vagina Door.
It was like a memetic virus silently eroding everyone, with the only characteristic being the inability to conceive the concept of the stone door. Once this notion expanded to a certain extent, the Profound Vagina Door could reappear in the world through the collective thoughts of sentient beings.
However, the brilliant sword light saw through the causality of the future. Even the last trace of the Profound Vagina Door's concept was discerned, and the memetic memories carrying it turned to ash under the Supreme Sword Intent.
Where the sword light passed, not only did it eradicate material existence, it also completely erased the Profound Vagina Door's very being from the Xianxia version.
Within Lu Yan, amidst the collapsing Profound Vagina Door, broken Dao Principles converged and transformed into eyes that slowly opened, their gaze piercing through the realms, carrying limitless majesty, silently regarding this stagnant time.
In the next moment, that pair of eyes met Jiang Zhiwei's ambiguous smile, causing the supreme majesty to momentarily pause.
"You can escape for a time, but not for eternity."
"The causality between you and him is set; next time, let him cut you down with one more sword!"
As the words echoed, that Supreme Sword Intent, which traversed time and nullified the Profound Vagina Door, traced back to this point, completely obliterating the eyes formed from the broken Dao Principles.
