But this trip to the Western Lands dispelled many of his doubts, and Li Qingshan understood why something like the Intelligence System would appear in the Immortal Plane, where the atmosphere of cultivation was so thick.

“Before the Ancient Celestial Court, the Immortal Plane and the universe were connected. At that time, people in the Immortal Plane could look up and see the vast universe.”

“The universe was diverse, with different civilizations that greatly impacted the Immortal Plane. This led to the creation of a glorious era, with mechs, battleships, and orbital cannons all being developed.”

“But later on, conflicts arose between the civilizations of the Immortal Plane and those beyond the dam. That era was destroyed, and the dam was born to seal off the Immortal Plane. The technological civilization that followed couldn’t continue and transformed into a cultivation civilization, giving rise to the Ancient Celestial Court.”

Li Qingshan looked at the Intelligence System, unraveling the timeline of events in his mind.

The Ancient Celestial Court had a pure cultivation style, relying on individual strength to tear through the starry sky and command the stars, making it extremely powerful.

The Ancient Celestial Court successfully produced thousands of Emperors under the blockade of the dam, relying on the Emperor Space. However, there was a limit to the Emperor Space, preventing them from breaking through to the Venerable Realm. Thus, the Ancient Celestial Court squeezed all the resources of the Immortal Plane, gathering all its strength to resist the forces behind the dam, resulting in intense battles and heavy casualties.

After that event, the Ancient Celestial Court split into two factions. One faction didn’t want to fight and sought to maintain the Immortal Plane’s status, while the other was determined to break through the dam and explore the vast universe, even wishing to venture into the Chaos World.

With devastating casualties and the exhaustion of resources in the Immortal Plane, ordinary immortals lamented their plight, and the Ancient Celestial Court was on its last legs.

Then, the Gouchen Emperor and others emerged. After the defeat of the Ancient Celestial Court, they overturned the oppressive policies and swept the Ancient Celestial Court into the dustbin.

Subsequently, the new Celestial Court was established, and a pawn from the civilization behind the dam, Changsheng Emperor, was inserted into the new Celestial Court.

However, the Changsheng Emperor unexpectedly perished, and disagreements arose among the Emperors within the Celestial Court, leading to its gradual disintegration.

During this period, many top experts chose to seal themselves in forbidden areas, stopping time and waiting for the appearance of the Supreme Path.

The Ancient Celestial Court exhausted everything and drained the potential of the Immortal Plane, but they failed to overthrow the dam. Their only hope lay in the Supreme Path.

So many ancient, powerful, and potential Emperors gradually disappeared.

The top experts of the Immortal Plane also dwindled, and the origin energy of the Immortal Plane slowly dissipated. Those hidden Emperors knew this, but they had no solution.

The Supreme Path!

This was the exit everyone was eagerly anticipating.

This hope persisted until now, with many top Emperors waiting for it.

Li Qingshan looked at the Intelligence System, reviewing the history of the Immortal Plane, feeling melancholy. “Can we really find hope on the Supreme Path and save the Immortal Plane?”

Li Qingshan was uncertain. Everyone regarded the Supreme Path as hope, but it was fraught with dangers and not easy to traverse.

“Regardless of whether it’s thousands, tens of thousands, or millions of years, I must make the most of my time, comprehend the 3,000 Rules, and have the confidence to enter the Supreme Path. Now, as the Lord of the Celestial Court, I naturally must find a way out for the Celestial Court, and even for the Immortal Plane.” Li Qingshan’s gaze was resolute. He didn’t look at the Intelligence System but turned and entered the Emperor Space to begin comprehending the Rules.

No matter how the future changes, strengthening oneself is the only way to stand tall in the face of storms.

In the Emperor Space, which was better than the Immortal Plane, comprehension of the rules was somewhat easier. For Li Qingshan, secluding himself here, roaming in the world of the Great Path, calmly comprehending the Rules, and occasionally activating his maxed-level comprehension skill, was very comfortable.

This trip to the Western Lands didn’t find Hua Yun, causing Li Qingshan to abandon the idea of continuing the search.

Hua Yun was the reincarnation of Flower Immortal, and if fate allowed, they would definitely meet at some point in the future.

Li Qingshan continued to comprehend the Rules. The 3,000 Great Path Rules, each containing six subdivided Rules, was a huge project to comprehend.

It required countless times, so Li Qingshan simply extended the time, with one day outside equating to ten thousand years for him. Although the life span of an Emperor was long, it couldn’t withstand such consumption.

“My current lifespan is over two million years. After deducting the tens of thousands of years consumed by comprehension before, I now have only two million years left. At this rate, in less than a year, I’ll have to start learning how to live a second life.” Sometimes Li Qingshan couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

The greatest enemy for him, who was invincible in the current Immortal Plane, turned out to be time.

The time was too long, even for Li Qingshan, an Emperor, whose lifespan couldn’t withstand such consumption.

The 3,000 Rules he needed to comprehend were simply too vast. However, once understood, he would wield them and enter the Supreme Path with confidence.

“The top experts of the Immortal Plane were all awaiting the opening of the Supreme Path. It wasn’t just the clans behind the dam but also the top talents from the universe. If I didn’t grasp the 3,000 Great Paths, I wouldn’t stand a chance against them. With my maxed-level comprehension skill, as long as my lifespan was sufficient, I could definitely completely master the 3,000 Great Paths before the Supreme Path appeared,” Li Qingshan thought firmly in his heart.
