Chapter 1 The Pioneer Space

To put it simply, the Pioneer Space has ways to reach the Huntian Realm, but you need to complete tasks to get there.

The Huntian Realm is the sacred ground for all those who have not yet attained the Dao Integration realm among the myriad worlds.

Legend has it that ordinary Heavenly Sovereigns, as long as they have a slight understanding of the Heavenly Dao and their own Dao, will receive assistance from the world's will upon entering the Huntian Realm, rapidly crossing the threshold and achieving the Dao Integration realm, becoming one of the Huntian Sages.

Of course, as Su Zhou said, a ‘desire’ requires facing a ‘tribulation’. The desire for Dao attainment corresponds to the tribulation of Dao demise. The Five Supreme Sages of Huntian are the tribulations of the Huntian Sages. Although they are currently quite peaceful, who knows if those five peak Dao Integrations with problems might suddenly act again and slaughter the Sages.

Therefore, the powerhouses of the myriad worlds are eager to go to the Huntian Realm, and there will be a constant stream of powerhouses emerging from the Huntian Realm, bringing out its Daobiao (beacon).

However, the powerhouses cannot find a way out, and the latter really don't want to be caught by the Five Supreme Sages, so they rarely offer the Daobiao in their possession.

So, going to the Huntian Realm is indeed very difficult.

Su Zhou is not surprised. After all, according to the Taishen Heavenly Sovereign, the Huntian Realm is a great world that runs around in the entire multiverse, very chaotic and elusive. Ordinary Dao Integrations find it as difficult as ascending to the heavens to even grasp its trajectory. Even the Great Flood, if it cannot overlook the entire multiverse, may not be able to find its location.

Without a Daobiao, you can't enter.

But the Pioneer Space is different—Zheng Quejian was surrounded and beaten by everyone else back then, so the Pioneers naturally have coordinates leading to Yala's original world.

"How do I get it?"

This is Su Zhou's question—he certainly knows that if he wants to get something from the Pioneer Space, he will definitely have to pay a price.

The Pioneer Space likes to freeload spiritual sparks from the myriad worlds, but it doesn't mind other beings freeloading from itself. For example, Su Zhou's Zhuzhou Dao. Although it looks like the Pioneer Space freeloaded his bloodline, Su Zhou actually also freeloaded the Pioneer Space's channels, spreading his Great Dao to the eight poles and ten directions of the multiverse. This is a win-win situation.

But for beings that are already very powerful, the Pioneer Space is not responsible for issuing tasks. It acts as an intermediary most of the time.

Just like Su Zhou now.

[As the Icebound Void is unsealed, the power of the Huntian Realm becomes increasingly strong. Its essence is chaos. The more worlds overlap and interact, the more solid and miraculous its Dao becomes.]

The Pioneer Space's voice is calm and devoid of emotion: [Now, it walks in the gap between history and the future. Simple void energy cannot locate its location. Without a specific timeline, even if you obtain a causal Daobiao, it will be useless.]

"A specific timeline?" Su Zhou could understand the other words, but the timeline still made him a little puzzled: "What is that?"

[An entry point—the sealed multiverse prohibits all time-based divine powers, so it's normal that you don't know. But the Huntian Realm is the original world of chaos, and it still preserves some spatio-temporal peculiarities.]

For Su Zhou, a major client and strategic partner, the Pioneer Space's answers are always very simple and easy to understand: [Original Zhuzhou, you can already easily read the Akashic Records. You should understand there that a world, in a sense, is actually a wordless book.]

[Everyone can read their own story from this book, and every outsider will add a new chapter to this book, naturally cutting into other people's stories, other people's books, becoming a supporting character in other people's stories.]

[Most worlds don't mind intrusions, but some worlds reject this possibility of breaking their stable balance—worlds of fate are very resistant to this kind of intruder. If you want to enter the world group of fate, you need great 'causality'. Without 'causality', the worlds of fate will refuse to let you enter, unless you forcibly enter with great brute force... but it's meaningless. They would rather collapse themselves than let you force your way in.]

[But the Huntian Realm is the other extreme. It welcomes anyone to join it, but the premise is that you can't just simply intrude, you can't just be a simple story.]

The Pioneer Space's light screen unfolded in the multiverse void, laying out a magnificent scroll.

On it were thousands of mountains, floating cities, sect mountain gates above the sky, and continental nations supported by clouds. Countless flying shuttles and airships, immortals' escape lights, and extreme war ships shuttled through the top of the Huntian. Just seeing a corner of it is enough to know that there are thousands of stories within.

Su Zhou stared at this scroll, listening to the Pioneer Space's explanation.

And it said: [You have to bring in settings, the settings of an entire story, an entire world.]

[Those who enter the Huntian Realm need to become beings that have existed in the Huntian Realm since ancient times. The stronger you are, the longer the settings, stories, and history that need to be compiled will be.]

[If it's a mortal, you only need to write your own birth.]

As it said this, one could see that a blurred high school student appeared on the Pioneer Space's scroll. Originally, the area around him was blank, but a somewhat dilapidated hut gradually appeared next to him, a nearly empty rice jar, and an aging yellow dog.

[Parents dead, poor family, not much food left, only a loyal old yellow dog can accompany you.]

Along with the voice, the Pioneer Space drew all the teenager's settings on its own scroll: [If one were to simply travel to the Huntian Realm due to a miracle, then with a high school student's size and luck, even with the Huntian Realm's hospitality and willingness to provide support, this high school student would only have such an origin. There would be no parents, relatives, or even lucky encounters.]

[However, if this high school student held a 'Daobiao', then according to the power contained in the different Daobiao, the high school student's origin would undergo earth-shattering changes.]

On the Pioneer Space's scroll, the area around the blurred high school student suddenly changed—he turned into a baby and appeared in a sect on a floating giant mountain. He was the youngest son of the sect's elder. He grew up receiving various elixirs and medicines to wash his body and marrow, and he had excellent cultivation methods to train his foundation. His own talent was also excellent. He was a sword Dao genius who could emit sword energy with his fingers at the age of twelve.

—‘Offspring of the Primordial Spirit’ ‘Reborn’ ‘Born for the Sword’—

These were the three label talents randomly selected for this transmigrator by a Daobiao. The high school student's settings, story, and history had taken shape.

It was simply worlds apart from the initial ‘parents dead’ ‘poverty-stricken’ and ‘loyal pet’.

Not only that, the Pioneer Space shook the scroll again, and instantly, the drawing around the high school student changed again—this time, he was still like the beginning, with his parents dead and extremely poor.

However, he carried a cheat!

A data system, adding points at any time, absorbing special energies from the heavens to forcibly improve his physique, break through levels and realms...

—‘Portable System’—

Just this one was enough.

Everyone who carries a Daobiao and arrives in the Huntian Realm, even the most ordinary mortal, must write their own history and past, becoming a part of the Huntian Realm.

Of course, because mortals cannot control their own power, they mostly rely on random draws.

But for powerhouses like Su Zhou, it's different.

Mortals only need to write their own birth, which is all of their history.

But the power of the strong is bound to stir up greater waves, so they also need to establish deeper roots.

His power is probably a billion times greater than all the Daobiao left outside the Huntian Realm combined. If the original Zhuzhou wants to enter the Huntian Realm, he must provide the Huntian Realm with ‘history’, ‘settings’, and ‘stories’ that match his power.

[You need to compile your own myths and legends, primeval records.]

The Pioneer Space said: [From ancient times to the present, from the opening of the Huntian until now—you need an entry point, like a new character joining an eventful chronicle. The Huntian Realm needs to recognize you, and the myriad beings of the Huntian Realm also need to recognize you.]

[A terrestrial immortal, entering the Huntian Realm, can create a small sect lineage, adding a floating flying island to the Huntian Realm, turning it into their territory, lasting for thousands of years, and having close ties with many sects with similar cultivation methods.]

[A celestial immortal, entering the Huntian Realm, can become an elder of a great teaching, the master of a middle sect, expanding a sea of clouds in the Huntian Realm, with countless palaces and buildings, becoming an alliance of many native sects of the Huntian, and also having enemies with opposing Daos, mutually hostile for tens of thousands of years.]

[A heavenly sovereign, entering the Huntian Realm, can become the core of a great teaching, or even an emperor of an immortal dynasty, adding cloud mountains and misty seas to the Huntian Realm, with floating flying lands floating, serving as the foundation of the country, stabilizing for hundreds of thousands of years, and tracing back to the past, having close relationships with many upper sects, relying on backers.]

A calm and deep voice said faintly: [This is the limit of cultivators, but Dao openers and Dao Integrations no longer need any backers.]

[You yourselves are the mountains. If you enter the Huntian Realm, you can add 'a side of heaven' to the Huntian, be it Qingming, or the Azure Sky, or the Northern Sea, or the Pure Land...]

[A layer of heaven, a sacred being. In the beginning of ancient times, you preached the Dao to the world, so the eras have changed several times, and your legends and myths still circulate within the Huntian...]

[Until you ‘truly’ enter the Huntian, the once-silent heavenly realm will rise again, and the sacred beings who have been eternally sleeping since ancient times will open their eyes and gaze upon all living beings once more.]

[A new myth... begins its prologue.]

Su Zhou narrowed his eyes and pondered.

"I see, a very interesting world."

The youth whispered to himself: "The Huntian Realm needs not only my power, my Great Dao—it even needs me to provide it with a brand new possibility!"

The so-called settings, stories, and history are, to put it bluntly, the ‘Great Dao’ of Dao Integration powerhouses, ‘how to achieve the Great Dao,’ and ‘the specific process of achieving the Great Dao.’

As the Huntian, which absorbs the Great Daos of the myriad worlds for its own use, it definitely doesn't just want a powerhouse to casually integrate with the Dao here... it wants the powerhouse to directly leave behind an ancient Dao lineage that has existed in its world since ancient times, spreading from the origin of time, as a ticket to enter this world.

To give an example, a very imprecise example.

If a world initially has three types of Great Dao inheritance, then it is derived to the present world, counting as one era, then the possibility that a world has in one era is approximately ‘6’.

This 6 is not a real number, but a placeholder for the size of the possibility.

In general, if a Dao Integration powerhouse is allowed to join midway, then the possibility that this era has is ‘6+1’.

But if it is the Huntian Realm, allowing the Dao Integration powerhouse to imprint historical settings and stories is equivalent to directly adding ‘1’ to the origin, with a total of four types of origin Daos.

Then, propagated to the present world, the possibility that the Huntian Realm has in one era is 24 kinds!

6+1 and 24, which is bigger and which is smaller, is clear at a glance.

And if the origin Dao is 5, if it is 6, then the possibility that one era has is 120 and 720 respectively.

The difference is immeasurable.

Of course, this is just a virtual reference. The real possibilities of a world will not be released so casually. Many powerhouses can suppress many kinds of bad possibilities.

But even so, the merits and demerits of the methods chosen by the two worlds are clear at a glance.

"The Light-Yin Horn... this is the master of Yala's River of Time, and the true meaning of the Great Dao of chaos."

Thinking of this, Su Zhou couldn't help but sigh: "Even though the sealed multiverse doesn't allow time-based abilities to be too powerful, in the Huntian Realm, it should be slightly relaxed."

"As for my settings... haha, aren't they all readily available? I am a multiverse policeman. Entering the Huntian should also be the same positioning."

[Your legends must be written by yourself.]

The Pioneer Space said: [Original Zhuzhou, if you want to enter the Huntian Realm, you only need the Daobiao's location and the relevant ‘entry point’. You need to have the ability to weave timelines, which is ‘fate’.]

[You are now extremely powerful. If you go one step further, no one can change your past, but you don't have any related divine powers to stabilize it, which can be considered a weakness that isn't a weakness.]

The Pioneer Space went on: [I have a task here that can allow you to obtain the ability to weave timelines and obtain the Huntian Daobiao at the same time.]

"Let me guess."

Because of the two keywords ‘weaving’ and ‘fate’, Su Zhou couldn't help but reveal a slightly subtle expression.

He touched his chin and said seriously: "Could it be related to [Destiny]?"

"You just said that the world group of destiny rejects other outsiders from entering, that is, rejecting your explorers... Although I don't think you would necessarily have to forcibly enter a rejected place, you probably wouldn't be very happy."

The youth clapped his thigh: "You want me to be a pioneer, use me as a knife, and fight against Destiny!"

[It is destiny, but it's not fighting destiny, it's just fighting the ‘world group of destiny’. You know the difference between the two.]

Being guessed at its purpose, the Pioneer Space's voice was still calm, but Su Zhou had already heard a burst of laughter: [Being challenged by me is also the destiny of its destiny. Destiny does not reject everything. There must be a cause for every effect, and an effect for every cause. It is the work of fate. This is its correctness.]

[In the worlds of destiny, there is the Huntian Daobiao, and there are also Great Dao divine powers for weaving fate and time... Original Zhuzhou, if you want to achieve your goal and fulfill your desire,]

[You have to overcome the tribulation brought about by your desire.]

[Defeat destiny.]
