Chapter 1: The Return of the Immortal Venerable

s once again curved into a sneer."Rrrring…!" The phone rang. Luo Chen took it out and glanced at the caller ID, his brows furrowed. Looking at that number, the serene state of mind he had cultivated...At the summit of Mount Tai, a bolt of lightning tore through the void, shattering the platform for offering sacrifices to heaven. The midday thunderclap, coupled with the destruction of ancient ruins, caused quite a stir.

A bullet train heading to Tongzhou.

A young man sat listlessly in the car. His face, sharp as a blade, looked pale, but there was an unconquerable spirit shining through his eyes, hinting at extraordinary fortitude.

"Have I truly been reborn Or is this just an illusion"

The young man sighed, carefully sensing his body. He found that the Taihuang Jing within him was like a sleeping Azure Dragon in a deep abyss, unable to be summoned. At this moment, all his cultivation had vanished, leaving only a faint protective aura from the Taihuang Jing.

“It seems I've really come back, back to Earth, and to the year when I was twenty.” The young man’s name was Luo Chen, the last descendant of the Tai Huang lineage.

Luo Chen was originally just an ordinary person, but by chance, he entered the cultivation world and obtained the Taishang Jing. He became the last heir of the Taihuang lineage, which shook the universe, step by step in his cultivation, and eventually achieved the position of supreme immortal sovereign.

Once upon a time, Luochin was invincible in his battles against countless races, sweeping through all enemies across myriad worlds. He stood tall at the pinnacle of power, dominating all paths. However, he was tragically ambushed and slain by three celestial venerables who had returned from the Third Solar Era.

"Hmph, three celestial venerables You brought out the Wordless Scripture and the Ten Fiendish Formations to ambush me for the sake of the Taia Sutra. Unfortunately, this Immortal Lord's life is not destined to end. I am back in the end." Luo Chen's mouth curled into a sneer, his eyes condensing a sliver of coldness.

Though his past self possessed astonishing combat prowess, with surging magical powers overwhelming all, and was already revered as a celestial venerated, in the end, his cultivation level was still too low. He ultimately fell victim to tribulation, shedding blood within the ten major perilous formations, and perished in a self-explosion.

But this life is different, he was reborn again and returned to Earth.

“Now I'm going to lay a solid foundation, then step by step cultivate the divine repository within my body. Along the way, I'll also get those extraordinary divine seeds scattered across Earth. Then, even the three Heavenly Venerables will only have the honor of being trampled under my feet.”

“Hehehe, I'm looking forward to meeting you all again, Three Great Heavenly Venerables. At that time, I want to see if you still have the qualifications to rival me When I get my hands on a few treasures first, I can't wait to see the expressions on your faces!” Luo Chen’s lips once again curved into a sneer.

"Rrrring…!" The phone rang. Luo Chen took it out and glanced at the caller ID, his brows furrowed. Looking at that number, the serene state of mind he had cultivated was now replaced with a flicker of hatred.

He walked the path of cultivation back then because of this phone's owner.

But that was the beginning of his lifelong tragedy.

In his past life, his family wasn't a wealthy tycoon, but his father had a house in the county town, a car, and even tens of thousands of dollars in savings, making it a relatively comfortable family. Moreover, there was a small decoration company at home, so no matter what, he could be considered to live comfortably.

But this trip, it ruined everything.

Right after graduating from university, he was separated from his girlfriend, Zhang Xiaoman. This time, he was going to find her. For Zhang Xiaoman, Luo Chen even chose to give up the bright future he had in Youzhou and became a small clerk in Tongzhou.

But Luo Chen wouldn't have thought that his trip would be the beginning of a disaster.

He arrived in Tongzhou with carefully chosen gifts, but was ultimately beaten into a disabled state. His hands were shattered, his knees broken, leaving him emotionally devastated for an extended period and even contemplating suicide.

He became a cripple who couldn't even live independently. To cure him, his father spent all the family savings, sold the car and house, and in the end, even resorted to scavenging for a living.

Until that snowy night, when someone brought back his already frozen father's body, he wept uncontrollably.

For the next twenty years, he lived like a dog, being ridiculed and abused, even begging for a living.

That kind of blow was too much for him, leaving Luo Chen disheartened. Finally, one night, Luo Chen came to the peak of Mount Tai and jumped off.

To his surprise, he not only survived but fell into the world of cultivation. In the end, he obtained the Taishang Jing and embarked on the path of cultivation. He rose against the heavens, achieving an unparalleled legend. He defeated all ancient deities in the world and became a revered immortal, shaking the realm with his might.

Unfortunately, even as the peerless Immortal Emperor, he couldn't revive his father. This became the most regrettable thing in his legendary life, and also the reason why he couldn't break through the last layer for a long time.

But this time was different. Since he could live another life, Luo Chen swore that no one would be able to harm his father. As for those enemies in Tongzhou, last time you destroyed my family, this life, how could I not avenge you

The phone rang, and a voice on the other end answered with a hint of impatience and coldness.

"Hey, Luochin, when you arrive, please give me a call in advance. My mom and I will come to the station to pick you up."

Then the other end of the phone didn't give Luochin any more chance and hung up directly.

Luo Chen then smirked, a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. In his past life, he had fallen deeply in love with this woman, acting almost like he was possessed. However, after going to Tongzhou, he was looked down upon by her parents, subjected to constant ridicule and humiliation. They made his life miserable with all sorts of difficulties.

This woman, also because of opposition from her family, ended up swindling over a million yuan, which was her father's startup capital, and ruthlessly abandoned herself to be with the son of an official.

But this life, Luo Chen couldn't help but sneer again. Let's play slowly.

Luo Chen put down his phone and happened to see an old man and a young person sitting beside him.

At this moment, the old man excitedly opened an ancient box. He took out a painting from inside and unfolded it, admiring it.

But Luo Chen glanced at it and then disdainfully retracted his gaze.

"What kind of eyes do you have Do you understand" Suddenly, a young girl next to the old man spoke up, questioning him. Because of her status, she had been spoiled by others since she was a child, so she developed a proud personality. Seeing Luo Chen's disdainful gaze, she immediately got angry.

Do you understand

Joking

Luo Chen was a celestial immortal in his past life. With his experience, how could he possibly not understand

And just by looking at the painting before him, Luo Chen knew it was a fake. This old man was being incredibly careful and affectionate towards it, as if he had received an authentic masterpiece.

But how could Luochin's disposition be on par with this little girl's

Moreover, Luochen also saw that from their dress and demeanor, the old and young pair were probably of extremely distinguished status, either incredibly rich or high-ranking officials.

“Don’t spout nonsense if you don’t understand. Besides, with your background as a bumpkin, facing millions worth of antique treasures, you probably haven't even seen them in your lifetime.” The girl said this while holding her chin high, her face filled with disdain. As someone from a noble family who usually interacted with the elite, she naturally looked down on ordinary people like Luo Chen.th carefully chosen gifts, but was ultimately beaten into a disabled state. His hands were shattered, his knees broken, leaving him emotionally devastated for an extended period and even contemplating...
