Chapter 3002: What He Comprehended Was Wrong!

"Such a vast and ancient aura—this is the Ganges, so beautiful."

"I feel like if I jump into the river, I can reach the other shore!"

"Perhaps in the Ganges, my martial path could be restored!"

…

In the endless void, a great river cascaded down, magnificent and grand.

The river's waters stretched far and wide, seemingly inexhaustible.

It was like a fountainhead, nourishing all the myriad worlds.

The strongest impression the Ganges gave was its unfathomable depth!

Ye Yuan could even sense that tributaries of the Ganges flowed into Xuming Tangyao Heaven, sustaining that realm's eternal existence.

Yet this ancient aura was unlike anything in the Thirty-Three Heavens.

It had no attributes!

No origin, no laws, no wind, rain, thunder, or lightning, and no light or darkness.

But it was extremely powerful!

Even more powerful than the Other Shore realm.

This feeling was indescribable and inexplicable.

"Kid, you only have one chance. Are you sure you want to enter the Ganges?" Long Jian confirmed again.

Ye Yuan grinned and leaped into the Ganges.

Long Jian nearly choked on his breath.

This kid was hopeless!

"Hmph! If you don't listen to your elders, you'll suffer! This fool—let him regret it!" Long Jian said irritably.

"Haha, this kid is young and brash, doesn't know his limits! Many geniuses have been just like him, eager to jump into the Ganges, thinking they could be reborn. But in the end, every single one regretted it deeply!"

"The path of cultivation requires steady steps. This kid will have his regrets!"

"Di Yuntian, not even one seal of the Gate of Eternal Life has been broken. He simply can't feel the vastness of the Ganges! I reckon he won't even be able to break through a single minor realm."

…

Many sovereigns were waiting to see Ye Yuan make a fool of himself.

The vastness of the Ganges was not something everyone could perceive.

Only by opening the seals of the Gate of Eternal Life could one comprehend it more truly.

But Ye Yuan hadn't even opened a single seal, yet he dreamed of achieving something extraordinary—was that possible?

"Alright, all of you enter the Ganges too! Remember, no matter how much you comprehend, you must not enter the main stream! Otherwise, no one can save you! Moreover, even in the tributaries, the area you can move in is limited. If it's ineffective, come ashore in time." Long Jian warned.

The crowd's expressions turned serious, and they all acknowledged.

Thousands of people leaped into the tributaries of the Ganges.

"Long Ran, don't get your hopes up too high. If two hundred of these thousands can find their martial path again, we'll be thankful. The fate of the rest is already sealed." Long Jian said.

Long Ran nodded: "I know! But for them, this is the only hope!"

Long Jian said: "This kid Ye Yuan has some tricks, but his pride is too high. What is too rigid easily breaks. In my view, his future martial path may not be very high."

Long Ran smiled: "Is that so? I think this child has great potential!"

Long Jian chuckled: "Long Ran, how many geniuses have you and I seen? Some were even more dazzling than Ye Yuan! Yet in the entire dragon race, only a few dozen have reached the Sovereign realm!"

Long Ran smiled without speaking; he naturally had his own insights.

How could someone valued by Patriarch Mi Tian be ordinary?

…

"Ye Yuan, for my sake, you wasted your golden opportunity to enter the Ganges. I'm truly sorry." Mi Tian sighed.

As a powerhouse of the Other Shore realm, Mi Tian naturally knew how important the chance to enter the Ganges was.

But Ye Yuan had wasted it without hesitation for him. While moved, Mi Tian felt deeply guilty.

In the tributary of the Ganges, Ye Yuan felt every pore on his body open wide.

"Senior, did the Chaos Sovereign comprehend the 'Wordless Heavenly Art' in the Ganges?" Ye Yuan didn't answer Mi Tian but asked instead.

Mi Tian was startled and nodded: "Yes! That old man wasn't exceptionally brilliant before, but when he broke through to the Sovereign realm, he entered the Ganges, had a great awakening, and comprehended the 'Wordless Heavenly Art,' thus attaining the path to become the Supreme Sovereign. Why do you ask?"

Ye Yuan gazed at the endless Ganges, somewhat lost in thought: "I think I've understood."

Mi Tian was startled again: "Understood? Didn't you already comprehend the 'Wordless Heavenly Art' long ago?"

Ye Yuan shook his head: "What he comprehended was wrong!"

Mi Tian: "…"

Ye Yuan said: "Chaos flows from the Ganges, evolving into all paths. The Chaos Sovereign traced back to the source, using his own cultivation to simulate the Chaos Heavenly Dao and evolve all beings. Little did he know that without reaching the Other Shore, he could never truly trace back to the source. Without a source, how can there be chaos? His path is不通!"

Mi Tian, with his level of cultivation, understood as soon as Ye Yuan said this.

The Chaos Sovereign's strength was immense, only half a step away from the Other Shore.

But that half step was as difficult as reaching the heavens.

Mi Tian now realized that it wasn't that the Chaos Sovereign lacked talent, but that his path had been wrong from the start!

His technique could only sustain his cultivation below the Other Shore, but couldn't let him reach the pinnacle.

"Then your entire cultivation path—is it all wrong?" Mi Tian asked in surprise.

Ye Yuan said: "Wrong, yet not wrong."

Mi Tian frowned: "What do you mean?"

Ye Yuan said: "His path is reversed! Under the Heavenly Dao, all beings are ants! Since they are ants, how can they transform into the One and give birth to all things? You think you stand high enough, but you're just a frog at the bottom of a well! No one knows what lies beyond the Gate of Eternal Life. You beings born from chaos might have a glimmer of hope. But he absolutely cannot. Chaos is too lofty, not something he can aspire to! However, by going against the grain, comprehending the myriad great paths, experiencing the myriad forms of life, and merging them into one, one might attain the Great Dao!"

Mi Tian's pupils contracted: "Does that mean the path of that old fellow Reincarnation is correct?"

Ye Yuan shook his head: "The path of reincarnation—experiencing the myriad forms of life, feeling the cycles of the world; the Numinous Soul Body—evolving all paths, tracing back to the source; the Cloud Dream Soul Body—dreaming for three thousand years, awakening to eternal life. These paths might all be correct, or they might all be wrong. But they all lead to the same destination; the direction is not wrong!"

Mi Tian understood.

No matter how you break through the Gate of Eternal Life, the final result is the same.

Only by comprehending the myriad paths of all beings and merging them into one can one attain the Great Dao!

The Reincarnation Sovereign walked one path to the end.

But he forged his own path, using the path of reincarnation to comprehend the myriad paths of all beings!

By merging all paths into one, his strength reached the extreme!

Clearly, the Reincarnation Sovereign had already understood this long ago, which was why his strength was unfathomable.

After hearing Ye Yuan's words, Mi Tian felt a sudden clarity.

"Then, what do you plan to do?" Mi Tian said.

Ye Yuan didn't answer. Instead, countless specks of light emerged from his body, like stars in the night sky, rolling down along the waters of the Ganges!

Mi Tian's pupils contracted, and he exclaimed, "The mind transformed into ten thousand!"
