Li Daochen arrives in a new world carrying a fragment of time.
He can create clones, enter the fragment, and travel back to bygone eras.
A thousand years ago, he crossed swords with Yan Chixia and was hailed as the greatest sword immortal under heaven.
Two thousand years ago, he watched sword immortals fill the skies, defeated the Blood Demon, gathered the sword immortals’ remains, and guarded the Sun and Moon Golden Wheels.
Six thousand years ago, he cultivated at Jinshan Temple and watched over Leifeng Pagoda as Fahai passed away in meditation.
Ten thousand years ago, on the shores of the Eastern Sea, he made a pact with a Dragon Maiden, then vanished without a trace.
Twenty thousand years ago, he sent a monk westward and witnessed him attain Buddhahood through his great merits.
Thirty-five thousand years ago, he studied under a master on Mount Fangcun alongside a stone monkey, witnessing the birth of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.
Fifty thousand years ago, he saw a Daoist wielding a sword, taught him a sword art, and later watched the man become revered as Patriarch Lu.
One hundred thousand years ago, he fought a true dragon in the Eastern Sea alongside a child. The child ascended to the immortal realm and took his place among the immortals.
…
A million years ago, a Daoist rode up on an ox, purple qi stretching for three thousand li. “I am Li Er, an old Daoist, here to discuss the Dao with you, fellow cultivator.”
Ten million years ago…
Li Daochen thought he could quietly drift along the edges of each era, seeking the eternal Dao.
Then one day, the news reported: “The tomb of Yan Chixia has been unearthed in Daling Mountain. Investigations have confirmed that Yan Chixia was the second-greatest sword immortal under heaven a thousand years ago.”
Li Daochen: “??”
Are you freaking kidding me?
