[No System] [Dual protagonists] [One heroine, no harem]
There was once an Immortal Tree in this world. Its Dao reached the ultimate, with no end to its path.
Legend says that beyond the Immortal realm lies a state that has remained beyond reach through countless epochs.
In the end, it chose to be reborn through reincarnation. After completing nine lives, it would use the power of all nine to forcibly condense dustless matter and break through into the unknown...
But an accident disrupted the path of reincarnation. On Blue Star, Xu Lintian, in his seventh life, died unexpectedly, becoming a variable in the cycle.
The power of two lives fused, forcibly bringing him into an eighth life.
Later, Xu Lintian came into conflict with the consciousness of his true self, and the two went their separate ways.
The true self's consciousness forcibly awakened and interfered with the cycle, forcefully beginning the ninth life!
Their battle raged on until they reached the Immortal Emperor realm and became immortal.
I was originally the Immortal Tree, my roots reaching into chaos. My branches cover the heavens of myriad worlds; with every breath, a world is born.
In this reborn life, am I still myself?
If this is what you seek above all else, then I will grant it to you...
