Chapter 1400: The Long River of Reverse Flow
Zhang Qian did not interfere with this process. He was the owner of the sword gourd and naturally knew all the changes in the sword gourd. Under his perception, countless roots spread downwards, and soon the entire world was filled with roots underground.

These roots intertwined like a big net, and were arranged according to a mysterious law that he couldn't understand, forming an incredible spiritual root formation!
Boom!
After all the roots stopped spreading, the entire universe shook inexplicably, and the solidity of the world's void increased rapidly, and began to approach the void of the prehistoric world.

When this rapid expansion stopped, the void of this world had become extremely solid, only slightly weaker than the prehistoric world. This meant that the origin of this world had become extremely sufficient, and for this reason, it had even reached the limit of the universe!
Although the roots stopped spreading, the saplings, which were about ten feet tall, did not stop and grew taller visibly.

The slender trunk became thick and branches stretched out.

Ten feet!

Baizhang!

Thousands of feet!

Finally, the sapling stopped only when it grew to a height of ten thousand feet.

"New innate spiritual roots!"

Zhang Qian showed an ecstatic look. This spiritual root sapling had grown to this point and was already considered a new innate spiritual root. After integrating with the huge root system, it was finally reborn!
"Even in the prehistoric world, innate spiritual roots are more precious than innate treasures. Now I have one!"

He was really overjoyed. In some ways, innate spiritual roots were indeed more precious than innate treasures. After taking a look at the newly born innate spiritual roots, he found that the existence of this spiritual root made the world inside the sword gourd overflow with spiritual energy and vitality, and even reached the point where life could be born.

After a while, he put away the sword gourd and took out the elixir refined by Zhen Yuanzi.

As soon as the elixir appeared, tiny auspicious clouds shaped like Ganoderma lucidum emerged and rolled around, gurgling.

A strange fragrance emanates.

After returning to his retreat place, he opened his mouth and swallowed the elixir.

When the elixir entered his stomach, it immediately turned into a stream of clear air, slowly rising and entering his Niwan Palace.

This clear air was extremely strange. After entering the Niwan Palace, he felt that his soul and true spirit had become many times lighter, like a ray of clear air from the sky.

This is naturally not the pure energy of the creation of the sky, but the Nine Heavens Qiong Yunzhi absorbs the pure energy of the nine heavens to grow. The pure energy of the nine heavens originates from the pure energy of the creation of the sky, so it can be said that they are of the same lineage. This pure energy was immediately drawn over by Zhang Qian's true spirit.

As soon as the languid true spirit came into contact with this fresh air, it was immediately shocked, and a great sense of satisfaction surged in its heart.

The originally illusory and weak true spirit quickly condensed. The elixir refined by Zhen Yuanzi himself was indeed extraordinary. This mysterious and clear air swirled around the true spirit. With every rotation, his true spirit became more condensed and the lost origin became more replenished.

Two divine lights flickered in Zhang Qian's eyes, which was a symbol of the fullness of his true spirit.

After 70% of the pure air was absorbed by the true spirit, the true spirit had recovered to its peak. Zhang Qian's true spirit did not let go of the remaining pure air and continued to absorb it completely.

After completely absorbing the pure energy, a halo even appeared behind his true spirit's head. This was because the origin of his true spirit was too strong, and after overflowing, it turned into a divine ring!

"Daluo Jinxian!"

He uttered these four words slowly. After his true spirit recovered, it was time for him to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm. Now his true spirit had enough energy to go back through the long river of time!

Yuan Youzi was called through voice transmission and after giving some instructions, billions of immortals and gods from the entire Taiyi Divine Sect came out together to protect Zhang Qian.

In the Taiyi world where the Taiyi Divine Sect is located, the solid world barriers rise up layer by layer to protect this world firmly!

Li Qingque and others showed up together. It was a great opportunity for them to be able to observe the promotion of the Daluo Jinxian.

Boom!
After everything was ready, Zhang Qian's heart suddenly rang with a roar. He had already comprehended the profound meaning of the Xuanhuang Law that the Tiandi Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda had instilled in him. However, with just a thought, the barrier of the Daluo Jinxian was broken through without any effort!

hum!
An aura of golden immortality and Daluo perfection spread out. Once this aura appeared, it also represented that his realm had reached the Daluo Golden Immortal!
Rumble!
The omnipresent river of time in the universe emerged and appeared directly inside the Taiyi World.

The long river has no beginning and no end, stretches endlessly, dominates the lifespan of countless living beings, and governs the birth and death of all things and spirits!
Countless phantoms flow in the long river, including shadows of the great thousand worlds, middle thousand worlds, and small thousand worlds in the heavens and myriad worlds, shadows of countless creatures in the heavens, and shadows of the primeval world.

All worlds are ruled by the long river of time.

Zhang Qian took a step into the void and stepped into the long river.

boom!
As soon as he entered the long river of time, the surging torrent of time hit him. This torrent not only hit his body and soul, but also his true spirit. If his true spirit had not recovered, it would not be able to withstand this impact.

He is immortal and has terrifying strength. He has withstood the impact of the torrent of time and is moving forward against the flow of the long river.

After he took a step, he immediately saw all the traces he had left in the river.

These marks are engraved there, imprinted on the past, representing all his experiences.

"I don't know what I will see in the end if I go back through the long river of time!"

At this moment he suddenly became nervous, because he had experienced three lifetimes!
At first he was just a mortal on Earth, then he entered the primitive world and became the innate creature, the ancient dragon loach, and then fell into the heaven beyond the sky.

The long river of time is spread throughout the universe and is omnipresent. No matter how many lifetimes you go through, all your marks will remain in the long river.

Swish!
He touched the first mark, and it was instantly merged by him.

He did not give up all the marks like the World Tree and only care about himself, but chose to take back all the marks.

After he merged this mark, he surprisingly found that his strength and power actually increased by one point.

It was as if he had regained the power he had once lost.

He didn't even use the Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth, but relied on his own strength to move forward.

I saw the second mark again.

After fusing the second seal, his strength increased again.

This feeling is extremely wonderful. It is a process of continuous gaining, as if picking up treasures one by one!

Boom boom boom!
The torrent of time could not stop him from moving forward. Although the further he went against the flow, the greater the resistance he encountered, it was far from reaching his limit.

In a short while, dozens of seals were merged by him. Looking up at the top of the river, there were still countless seals waiting for him to collect.

He took another step forward, his blood and energy circulated throughout his body, making a roar like thunder, and he walked faster and faster!

After fusing countless marks, the mark in front changed and became the appearance of an ancient dragon loach!

"So that's how it is. The earlier a cultivator achieves Golden Immortal status, the earlier he goes back through the long river of time, and the easier it is for him to go back through the long river of time successfully. The shorter the time of cultivation, the fewer marks left in the long river of time. In this way, he only needs to go back through a short distance to get back all the marks. On the contrary, if it takes hundreds of millions of years to achieve Golden Immortal status, then when he goes back through the long river of time, the number of marks he needs to get back will be terrifyingly large, and the distance he needs to go back through will be many times longer!"

He suddenly realized that the further he went against the flow of time, the greater the resistance he would have to endure, almost doubling.

For those monks who have spent billions of years to achieve the Golden Immortal, when they go against the long river, the distance they have to travel is extremely long, and in the end they may not have the strength to go back, so they fail to be promoted!
