Step by Step Ascend to Immortality - Chapter 25 - 26 On the road again

Lin Yuan took a ‘Gate to All Realms’ and traveled to the vast universe of the Star Sea.

The most powerful person here can destroy the starry river system with a snap of his finger, and tens of millions of light years are coming in a blink of an eye.

Lin Yuan, who has been reduced to the bottom, can only rely on the ‘Gate of All Realms’ and the bound talent ‘Heaven-defying Comprehension’ to travel through all realms and become stronger silently.

[You have incredible understanding, practice the Yi Jin Jing, and understand the ‘Yi Jin Jing, body exchanging blood and quenching the gods’]

[Your understanding is against the heavens, you understand the thunder in your palm, and understand the ‘Thunder Creation and Development Method’]

[Your understanding is contrary to heaven, watching the birth and death of the world, and realizing the ‘world in the palm of your hand’]

[Your understanding is contrary to the heavens, you have studied the art of incarnation outside the body, and realized the ‘Great Law of Self-Transformation’]

…

As he traveled back and forth again and again, Lin Yuan grew stronger endlessly, until… he was invincible in the world.

The Path to Immortality is elusive, and everyone wants to achieve it even if there's only a glimmer of hope.Tian Yongheng is a person who regained his past life memories after his family was brutally slaughtered. His extreme fear of death and desire to be undying have forced him to step onto this dangerous path of Immortal Cultivation.He is not a Chosen One who is the favored son of heavens, nor is he the reincarnation of a Great Emperor. Armed with a unique system of unknown origins and his obsession with immortality, he sets forth to carve a way of his own in this world where fate toys with one's very existence itself and cosmic horror-like beings devour universes for fun.However, can he really touch the illusory, eternal and ethereal Immortal Dao that is everlasting and everchanging?Will he ever be able to reach the end of this grand path to eternity, establishing himself as a myth and beyond? or will he also drown in the long river of history just like many others?-------The background settings and world building of this story are greatly inspired by Top Tier Providence, Secretly Cultivate for a Thousand Years. the main characters are also pretty similar, so if you like stories where the MC is a hidden powerhouse who, despite being hidden, is still known across the world, then you can give it a try. Please be patient while reading, as this is my first time writing a novel and don't hesitate to point out any mistakes I do in the comments.Also, I'm not a native of China, so there are probably going to be a lot of mistakes in names and history and stuff, please bear with it.Note: English is not my first language and the cover image is not mine.

In this world, orphans or just anyone without any hope for this world can apply to become a “walking target”. Their sole purpose is to be a practicing dummy for the students of the sect who train to become “Demon Hunters”. These students need “walking targets” to test their training on living, walking beings of flesh and blood.
In exchange, they will be provided with food & shelter.
Their existence value is lower than a slave, but if they manage to survive a few years they can receive a life long pension.

Xiao Han is such a “walking target”. One time he witnessed a powerful Demon Hunter disposing a demon. When the demon died, a fragment of the demon that managed to escape entered Xiao Han’s heart. No one saw that, and even Xiao Han himself only felt some discomfort for an instant.

But that thing in his heart soon gave Xiao Han visions, and the first one is of a cultivation method which allows Xiao Han to absorb damage to enhance his body. A perfect cultivation method for a “walking target”.
