The path of cultivation, to follow the Dao and cultivate the heavenly laws of the world is a path that very few are ever able to truly reach grand success in, and achieve immortality.
Ninety nine percent of people fall at the 1st step, unable to ever achieve Immortal Ascension in their life, and ninety nine percent of the people who achieve Immortal Ascension are unable to reach the peak realm of the 2nd step, World Die, Dao Live, and even then, ninety nine percent of those who reach the World Die, Dao Live realm, even with their lifetime of knowledge, fail to complete their Dao Painting and achieve the One Dao Realm, embarking on their own unique path of the Dao, escaping the laws of the heavenly Dao.
Such legendary figures, who can achieve the One Dao Realm will see their prospective lifespan increase from a million years to around a billion years, just for reaching the first realm of the 3rd step, and their power will increase massively, with their names resounding across the myriad planes of the Nine Dao Sky.
From one of the trillion lower worlds, the Sui Xi Nong Divine Continent, a young man named Xi Nong Su blazed through his path of cultivation, achieving an Omega Foundation Establishment through using a fragment of the Unfettered's Wooden Dao Sword that was shattered during his Immortal Ascension, then transforming this Omega Foundation into a Nine Dao Core, tempering it with the heavenly lightning created by the cultivation technique Heaven's Return Sutra, and then he turned his Nine Dao Core into a Nine Dao Nascent Soul.
After this Seb achieved the Primordial Realm, fusing his perfect Nascent Soul into his body, and he performed a miracle, undergoing nine primordial shatterings, becoming the first to do so in the history of the Xi Nong Su Divine Continent, and the first that Xi Nong Su's soul companion Tian Y'Li knows of as well, apart from the legendary and mysterious Unfettered from the history books of the Sui Xi Nong Divine Continent.
At the Great Sea Realm, after his breakthrough, Xi Nong Su is already unrivalled beneath the heavens on the Sui Xi Nong Divine Continent, and he is able to cultivate swiftly to the peak of the Great Sea Realm after plundering all the resources he needs, and after attaining a solid Great Sea, Xi Nong Su attempts Immortal Ascension, the first to attempt it within the past 10,000 years of the Xi Nong Su Divine Continent, and he becomes the first to achieve it in over a 100,000 years, passing his tribulation and successfully creating an Immortal Ascension body, with 1,003 Immortal Meridians, with each meridian he formed after the 999th Immortal Meridian being formed from a special existence that was within Xi Nong Su's body, the 1,000th meridian corresponding to the Wooden Sword Fragment that belonged to the Unfettered, which formed an Immortal Wood Meridian within Xi Nong Su's body, the energy formed from the Heaven Return's Sutra, fused with the heavenly tribulation lightning to form the 1,001st Immortal Meridian within Xi Nong Su's body, an Immortal Lightning Meridian, Xi Nong Su's mortal bloodline which is a combination of the intense yin and yang energy possessed by his two ancestors, emperor Xi and empress Nong, which fused to create a divine yin yang bloodline which once awoken provided unparalleled talents, causing Xi Nong Su's 1002nd Immortal Meridian to be an Immortal Void Meridian, Void referring to the perfect duality formed from the combination of Yin and Yang within Xi Nong Su's Bloodline. The last Immortal Meridian, the 1003rd, one more Immortal Meridian than the legendary Unfettered was able to produce, was incredibly special, being formed from Xi Nong Su's mortal soul immolating, and the fusion of Xi Nong Su and the reincarnated Tian Y'Li which fused into his soul both dying together to form an Immortal Samsara Meridian, at the centre of his forehead, forming a perfect Immortal Meridian Cycle, formed when one has over 1,000 Immortal Meridians with one of the special variant Immortal Meridians being the legendary Immortal Samsara Meridian.
After Xi Nong Su's soul, along with Tian Y'Li's soul which had fused with his, died, the perfect Immortal Meridian Cycle within Xi Nong Su's body activated, causing a new soul seed to be formed from the combination of Xi Nong Su's and Tian Y'Li's now dead souls, which fused together perfectly, and this new soul took the name Xi Tian Seb, a combination of Xi Nong Su and Tian Y'Li's names. Having achieved Immortal Ascension, and a perfect Immortal Ascension with 4 variant Immortal Meridians, Xi Nong Su, now Xi Tian Seb, or simply Seb, possesses true unparalleled talent, talent which is rarely ever seen not just in the Sui Xi Nong Divine Continent, but among the upper realm which the trillion lower realms, Sui Xi Nong Divine Continent being just one of these lower realms, are subordinate to, this upper realm being called the Nine Dao Sky, and it is equivalent in size to nine times the total area of the all the trillion lower worlds below it.
Despite this someone who achieves Immortal Ascension with over 1,000 Immortal Meridians, let alone a perfect Immortal Meridian Cycle comes along at most once every 1,000,000 years among the entire Nine Dao Sky, meaning Seb's talent is a one among trillions of lifeforms level of talent, with his incredible experiences and foundation allowing him to have achieved his perfect Immortal Meridian Cycle.
Having achieved Immortal Ascension in a lower realm, Seb is now able to traverse the chaotic streams of space between the Sui Xi Nong Divine Continent to reach the Nine Dao Sky, and after doing so he appears within a vast stretch of space, however even hear the Qi is more dense than the Sui Xi Nong Divine Continent, showing Seb that he truly has reached the mythical Nine Dao Sky spoken of within the ancient records of the Sui Xi Nong Divine Continent.
Seb now begins his cultivation path of the 2nd step, remaining in obscurity until he can reach a higher realm. Seb creates his Dao Seed and using his perfect Immortal Meridian Cycle he plants it within his shattered dantian, creating a new inner world with the birth of his World Tree.
Seb reaches the 10,000,000 mile mark within 2 years, achieving the peak of the World Tree Realm, however he continues purifying essence and diverting it into his inner world for another 100 years, seeing how high he can make his World Tree grow, all the while wondering myriad planets and interacting with countless people within the Nine Dao Sky realm, to try and polish his mental state and come closer to the heavenly laws of the Dao within each world he goes to.
Eventually, Seb is unable to make his World Tree grow any further, after 1,167 years, with it having reached a height of 1,000,000,000,000 miles, which is by far one of the tallest World Trees ever in existence, and even more impressive is how wide the tree is, being around 1,000,000,000 miles in terms of width, showing the breadth of Seb's comprehensions into the laws of the world during his time wandering the universe, with his comprehensions of the laws of Wood, Lightning, Void and Samsara having reached unbelievably impressive levels, thanks to his foundation of Immortal Meridians containing variant Immortal Meridians for each of these respective laws, and aside from this Seb also cultivated the laws of the Sword and Ice to high levels as well, without the help of a foundation in Immortal Meridians merely from his experiences while wandering the universe.
After 1,167 years Seb had reached the true peak of the World Tree Realm for himself, and could even fight those at the Three Disaster Realm, however he suppressed his breakthrough, waiting til the Infinity Realm opened in 100 years, as when one entered the Infinity Realm, in this mystic realm one could enter into a state which allowed one to look themselves to the heavenly Dao of the entire trillion lower worlds, and in this state Seb planned to undergo his Breath of Life process, stealing an unprecedented amount of Life.
Seb took ten breaths of life from all the lifeforms within the trillion lower worlds, the most ever taken by anyone, by far, and thus Seb's tribulation was monstrous, causing him to suffer incredibly heavy injuries, however he miraculously survived, with half his inner world being destroyed, however with the influx of life energy after successfully passing his Breath of Life tribulation not only was it fully restored, Seb's lifespan increased massively from the overflow of life, to around 10,000,000 years, rivalling even those peak 2nd step cultivators, and his planets instantly began to form with life appearing on them.
After just 2 years Seb was able to reach the peak of the Breath of Life realm, due to the massive amounts of life force he absorbed, with his planets being incredibly incredibly vast, a testament to his insights into the Dao and his unparalleled foundation with his perfect Immortal Meridian Cycle. At this stage Seb can fight those who are at the level of their Third Disaster in the Three Disaster Realm.
Seb shores up his foundation for another 500 years, despite being able to enter the Three Disaster realm at any time, all in preparation to do the unparalleled, undergo all Three Disasters at the same time, a feat which no one has done in the past Kalpa Cycle, a Kalpa Cycle being a period of 22.7 trillion years, with a merely a few ancient records from the last Kalpa documenting that it is possible to undergo all Three Disasters at once, with the benefits this brings being unknown.
Seb performs this miracle, undergoing all Three Disasters consecutively, and upon doing so, he finds out that the benefit this brings is an unlimited time period to complete one's World Die, Dao Lives painting to enter the 3rd step, rather than once the process is started having merely 100-1000 years to complete it or die. Seb's inner world and World Tree collapse instantaneously after the completion of these Three Disasters, along with his Immortal Meridian foundation, however the energy it forms is completely stable, not fading away slowly as it is for others who begin their World Die, Dao Live process after finishing their Third Disaster.
And so, Seb, being the first in the new Kalpa to have achieved a perfect foundation in the 1st and 2nd step, undergoing all Three Disasters simultaneously, goes into a roaming period amongst the worlds of the Nine Dao Sky, determined to use the time he's earned for himself to form a Dao painting so perfect and unparalleled, incorporating all his knowledge of the laws he has gained for himself, and painted with the unparalleled powerful energy he has due to his uniquely perfect foundation, allowing himself to reach the One Dao Realm perfectly and for his own future Dao path to be without equal, with Seb already being able to fight those at the One Dao Realm, the first realm of the 3rd step, while drawing his Dao Painting and still being in the World Die, Dao Live Realm.
