Shen Lao processed his breathing calmly after completing the blood purification process.

The flames from his body burned the dirty blood and expelled it from his body through the pores of Shen Lao's skin. The process of refining blood made Shen Lao feel the difference he was feeling.

Shen Lao went through the days with physical training, until the muscle building in his body was well formed. After training his physique, Shen Lao meditated in a position as comfortable as possible and cultivated breathing. Sometimes he forged a soul and trained his mentality.

Shen Lao's Breathing is the Art of Dragon Breathing and the Art of Phoenix Breathing. After cultivating his breathing, Shen Lao always sat down while eating the fruits included in the resources.

In the memory of the legacy of the Spirit God and the Thousand Knowledge Pill, Shen Lao felt that he had to raise his family. The only way was to gather all the treasures that existed in the Eternal Gorge. He wants to be able to make people happy who will be part of his family.

In the golden pile were five Space Rings and several heirlooms. Shen Lao did not use the Space Ring to store gold and resources, but instead used the knowledge belonging to the Spirit God.

Shen Lao learned how to use the Unbounded Space Seal Technique. That way he could at will store anything as much as possible without worrying about the capacity within the Infinite Space Seal.

Basically Shen Lao was a descendant of nobles, so he had planned everything early on. Ever since the heartbreaking tragedy, Shen Lao had already rounded up his resolve to reach the top and made all those who despised him submit to him.

After reaching the Peak Stage Great Swordsman, Shen Lao was trying to break through the Earth Swordsman. The resources and Demon Gems he had prepared, but it still took him some time to break through the Earth Swordsman.

In order to fill his free time, Shen Lao fought against Demon Beasts and Vast Beasts. Every time he killed him, Shen Lao put the flesh of the Beast and Demon Beast into the Infinite Space Seal. The flesh would not rot as time in the Unbounded Space Seal came to a halt.

Shen Lao felt that if he came out of the Eternal Gorge, the meat he had always eaten would be valuable and make money if he sold it. Although he already had wealth, but Shen Lao had planned everything so he did not want anyone to look down on him or harass him.

There were still many resources that helped Shen Lao's development such as the Lightning Pool, Aura Pool, Medicine Lake. From those three, the Lightning Pool helped Shen Lao in the process of forging bones and marrow, forming muscles in his body, forming inner power circles even aiding the blood purification process.

For the Aura Pool, Shen Lao could open up the aura as the water within the Aura Pool stimulated every connecting point in his body. The most precious of the three was the Lake of Medicine because the water within the lake was the Phoenix Tears.

Shen Lao knew that the Phoenix Tears were extremely healing, so he felt that he could use the Phoenix Tears to make medicines and pills.

But Shen Lao had no talent in medicine. Although the memories of the Spirit God and the information he obtained from the Thousand Knowledge Pill were vividly reflected in his mind, Shen Lao always made mistakes.

But from all that Shen Lao gained valuable experience. Every human has his own share. Humans are imperfect creatures. Having no talent in medicine, Shen Lao only wrote prescriptions making medicines and pills.

The account of the treatment became a thick book, and Shen Lao gave it the name of the Book of Medicine.

Shen Lao meditated to try several stages in training his soul as a swordsman. Considering that he had no direct direction from the teacher, Shen Lao realized that there were some things he missed. The fortunate information in the Thousand Knowledge Pill made him know how to open all eight gates.

To open the first gate, Shen Lao meditated for seven days. Finally after breaking through the first gate, Shen Lao realized that until now he had not broken through the Earth Warrior because he had not opened the eight gates.

After breaking through the second gate of the healing gate, Shen Lao practiced using the Science of the Undwelling Sword. It took him a year to master the Sword Arts Without Being. Shen Lao is twelve years old. Sometimes there was a feeling of sadness for living alone in the Eternal Gorge, but on one hand Shen Lao felt lucky because thanks to the help of the God Spirit he was finally able to become a swordsman.

Shen Lao practiced sword arts using invisible swords. According to Shen Lao, the Science of the Undying Sword was very useful for tricking enemies into even being able to kill enemies in an instant because the sword that Shen Lao was wielding was nowhere to be seen.

Within a period of one year, Shen Lao used the Dragon God Body Technique and the Phoenix God Body Technique to strengthen his body. Meanwhile he also managed to break through the fourth gate.

After breaking through the third gate of life, Shen Lao began to practice using the power of the Phoenix Spirit to fly. It took six months to master the power of the Phoenix Spirit.

Then Shen Lao again tried to break through the fourth gate, the gate of pain. As usual, every time he broke through, Shen Lao always practiced some of the knowledge that was in the Memory of the Spirit God inheritance.

Shen Lao is now thirteen years old. In order to redeem the Earth Swordsman, Shen Lao began meditating to break through the fifth gate of the restriction gate. After mastering both the Dragon God Body and the Phoenix God Body, now Shen Lao had no trouble breaking through the later stages.

The sixth gate was a gate of scenery he could pass easily after meditating for three days. But when Shen Lao tried to break through the seventh gate, the gate of miracles, he took two whole weeks.

Shen Lao absorbed the Animal Spirit Pearls and Demon Gems to aid his development. After breaking through the magic gate, Shen Lao learned how to break out of the Eternal Gorge.

In the Eternal Gorge there was a Dimensional Cave that became the exit of the Eternal Gorge. The requirement to exit the Eternal Gorge must have an inner power circle totaling 5000 circles.

Shen Lao had qualified because his inner circle count exceeded 7000 circles. Until the age of sixteen, Shen Lao continued to train physically and train to master every science in the memory of the legacy of the Spirit of God.

When he was almost seventeen years old, Shen Lao immediately meditated in the Lightning Pool and tried to break through the death gate that was the last gate.

In the process of opening the eighth gate, Shen Lao suffered great torment. For five days he was in pain. The process of forming his new body while soaking in the Lightning Pool made the aura that enveloped Shen Lao's body change.

Before long the sound of bones cracking echoed in the Eternal Gorge. Shen Lao now penetrates the Early Earth Swordsman. Before coming out of the Eternal Gorge, Shen Lao gathered a large number of Animal Spirit Pearls and Demon Gems, and he took every resource present in the Eternal Gorge.

Before exiting the Eternal Gorge, Shen Lao soaked in the Lightning Pool to forge his bones. From day to day the sounds of bones cracking continued to echo, until finally Shen Lao had the Heavenly Dragon Bone.

Just in case when he returned to the Eternal Gorge, Shen Lao performed a blood contract with the Portal Ring. So that Shen Lao can return to the Eternal Gorge. It was just that to use the Portal Ring required a huge amount of inner manpower, but for Shen Lao this was not something that was too much in question.

With the red-horned Fire Cow meat he had grilled, Shen Lao started breakfast to replenish his strength. After that he stepped on his feet excitedly entering the Dimensional Cave.

“God spirit, I will remember that feeling. Twelve years have passed, but that feeling still lingers in my soul.” Shen Lao stared at the sky that was in the Eternal Gorge before entering the Dimensional Cave.

There was a feeling of loneliness that infiltrated Shen Lao's heart, but he had to keep going on with his life. After living alone in the Eternal Gorge, of course Shen Lao still felt a deep loneliness.

Shen Lao wrapped his body with an aura and deep energy. Before long a bright white light filled the entire Dimensional Cave. Slowly Shen Lao's body disappeared from the Dimensional Cave and left the Eternal Gorge.
