He walked between heaven and earth, between the four seasons, and through life.

Wang Baole walked forward step by step. The more he walked, the calmer his heart became. The more he walked, the calmer his soul became. The more he walked, the deeper his gaze became.

Time passed. The wind and snow turned into wind and rain, the Moon replaced the sun, and the day turned into night. In this cycle, Wang Baole didn’t know how many territories he had walked through, how many domains he had walked through, how many mountains he had crossed.., how many seas he had crossed.

Then, one day, he saw a bridge.

A gigantic bridge appeared before him. It was as tall as the sky, and it was vast and boundless.

!!

The simple carvings, unknown runes, greenish-black bricks, and the surrounding of auspicious beasts made the bridge seem as if it had been personally created by the universe itself. It wasn’t exquisite, but it was rough, and it exuded a supreme air of dominance!

The Aura was overwhelming, causing Wang Baole, who was standing in front of the bridge, to feel his heart thump. At the same time, there was a sense of vicissitudes. It was as if a wind that had blown over from ancient times had filled Wang Baole’s surroundings, it was as if it had brought him back to ancient times in his dreams. In the desolate wilderness, amidst the whimpering of the wind, he felt as if the lonely voice of the Qiang flute was reverberating.

As the whimpering echoed, Wang Baole saw figures appearing on the bridge. These figures were mostly cultivators, and each of them possessed a cultivation that could shake the heavens and earth, they… appeared on the bridge at different times in different years. They walked towards the bridge.

“This is…”after a long while, the figures on the bridge gradually faded away. When the bridge reappeared in Wang Baole’s eyes, he muttered.

“Stepping on the Heavenly Bridge.”The person who said those three words wasn’t Wang Baole, but Father Wang, who had appeared beside Wang Baole at some point in time.

Father Wang was dressed in white and had a head of white hair. His gaze was calm as he raised his head to look at the Heavenly Bridge. Then, he looked at Wang Baole, who was cupping his fists to greet him.

“Baole, are you prepared to come here?”

Wang Baole thought for a moment, shook his head, and said softly.

“Senior, please wait for me for a little longer. My Dao Heart and obsession are still a little incomplete.”

“It’s fine. I’ll wait for you here.”Father Wang looked deeply at Wang Baole and nodded. He sat cross-legged in front of the bridge and closed his eyes.

Wang Baole bowed again and sat cross-legged in front of the bridge. He raised his right hand and looked at his palm. He looked at the human world within, and slowly closed his eyes.

His soul returned to his hometown.

As a junior brother, he had to repay his senior brother’s kindness. This was Wang Baole’s intention and his reason.

Similarly, as the son of the man, filial piety was important. Therefore… before stepping onto the Heavenly Bridge, Wang Baole’s physical body remained. His soul had entered the human world in his palm, entered the stone stele world, and entered the Solar System, he had entered… Earth.

His parents were already old.

The disaster in the stone stele world did not affect the federation, but as time passed, it still took away his parents’black hair and left wrinkles on them.

Wang Baole’s return made the two elders very happy. As for Wang Baole’s younger sister, she had already married and lived an ordinary life. Although Wang Baole’s existence made them different from ordinary people, overall.., happiness was good.

Seeing his parents happy and his younger sister happy, Wang Baole was happy as well.

Time passed slowly. In the stone stele world, on Earth, Wang Baole’s return seemed to have turned into an ordinary mortal. He accompanied his parents and walked the final path of his life.

Day after day, his parents’white hair grew more and more. In the end… They held Wang Baole’s hand. Amidst his father’s lamentation, his mother’s exhortation, and Wang Baole’s soft words of comfort, they slowly.., the two elders closed their eyes.

Wang Baole did indeed have a way to turn things around. He could even allow his parents to have the greatest chance of living in the stone stele world forever in this lifetime. However, this suggestion was rejected by his parents. He could feel their wishes, they… only wanted to spend the rest of their lives in peace. Then, they could reincarnate and start a new life.

Everyone needed to have the right to make their own decisions in life. Even if they were the son of a man, they should not force their own wishes on him. If that was the case… it would not be filial.

His mother’s only request was that after her reincarnation, she and Wang Baole’s father would still be lovers. They would experience romance in different lives, and they would be together for the rest of their lives.

Wang Baole’s father was about to say something when he heard this request. However, after being glared at by his wife, he shut his eyes obediently.

This was not death, but a new journey. Therefore, he could not be sad. He needed to be blessed.

Wang Baole could not hold back his tears. However, there was a smile on his face. He personally drew the faces of his parents’souls, arranged their marriage, and sent them into the cycle of reincarnation.

Just like when he sent his senior brother away, after his parents were born in the next life, Wang Baole’s smile became even more gentle as he looked at them.

As for his younger sister, Wang Baole had made similar arrangements. It was up to his younger sister to decide.

After doing all this, Wang Baole felt calmer. On Earth, he walked in ethereal city. Rain began to fall from the sky, and there were not many pedestrians on the streets.

The Sky and Earth looked a little hazy.

In the rain and in the haze, Wang Baole took one step at a time. When he was about to cross the street, he stopped and turned to look behind him. At the corner of the street behind him, a beautiful figure stood there, she was holding a red-striped umbrella and wearing a long white dress. She was staring at him.

Their gazes met for three breaths. A smile appeared on Wang Baole’s face. He cupped his fists and bowed deeply to the figure.

The beautiful figure was silent. She put away the umbrella, revealing Li Wan ‘Er’s beautiful face. She allowed the rain to fall on her body. Across the street, she bowed to Wang Baole and bowed.

After bowing, the two of them turned and walked further and further away.

Wang Baole walked out of ethereal city and arrived at Ethereal Dao College. In the back mountain of the DAO College, there was a tree-lined path with peach blossoms blooming on both sides. It was very beautiful.

The rain seemed to have stopped here as well. It didn’t want to disturb them. Yuefeng was mischievous and continued to come. Many of the petals were swept up and flew around a beautiful figure. It was as if they were competing with her for the fragrance, unwilling to leave.

As the peach blossoms filled the air, Wang Baole walked over. He looked at the innocent face, and memories of the past surfaced. It was… Zhou Xiaoya.

“Are you saying goodbye?”Zhou Xiaoya asked softly.

“Yes,”Wang Baole replied softly.

“I want to say goodbye,”Zhou Xiaoya said loudly after a moment of silence.

Goodbye. They would meet again.

“Goodbye.”Wang baole smiled and nodded heavily. As the peach blossoms danced in the air, he didn’t clasp his fists. He turned and walked away, leaving Ethereal Dao College. He bade farewell to his master, The Blazing Flame Patriarch, and his other old friends. Finally.., he arrived at a mountain. It was a beautiful mountain. It was located at the polar region, and it was filled with snow.

Snowflakes were floating in the sky. It was crystal clear, and it gave off a holy feeling.

There was a wooden house at the peak of the mountain. As the snow fell, it looked as if the wooden house had been dressed in a pure white wedding dress.

In the wooden house that looked like a wedding dress, there was a woman sitting cross-legged in meditation. Her expression was determined, as if cultivation was the eternal path of her life.

Her name was Zhao Yameng.

When Wang Baole walked over, Zhao Yameng opened her eyes. A smile that resembled a blooming flower appeared on her beautiful face as she spoke softly.

“Baole, what is a dao partner?”

“The path of cultivation is a lonely one. One has to work hand in hand along the way and walk to the end of the path. They are fellow Daoists, teachers, friends, and partners. They are kindred spirits and kindred spirits,”Wang Baole replied with a smile.

“Good.”Zhao Yameng smiled. Her smile was elegant, and her gaze was calm.

“Good.”Wang Baole smiled as well. He sat beside Zhao Yameng and closed his eyes.

When he opened them again, he was no longer on Earth. Instead, his soul had returned to the celestial sphere. He looked at his father, who was meditating under the bridge. Wang Baole’s eyes lit up as he spoke softly.

“Senior, you’ve Waited a long time. Junior… is ready.”
