Crossing Naruto I became the only Immortal

Once, this young man harbored hopes and dreams, chasing a bright future. However, the harsh reality shattered his illusions, plunging him into a desolate abyss. He lost the care of loved ones, missed educational opportunities, and yearned for genuine love. Now, in this crowded yet lonely city, he immersed himself in sordid entertainment, attempting to escape the emptiness and despair within. The accumulated waste in the garbage can emitted a foul odor, akin to the pollution of his soul. Ye Feng no longer cared about his appearance, neglected personal hygiene, and disregarded the gaze of the outside world. He was merely indulging in the world of his dilapidated computer, seeking momentary pleasures, oblivious to the emptiness within. Once an idealistic young man yearning for justice and ideals, he was repeatedly crushed by the brutality of reality. His spirit gradually sank, casting a gloomy and decadent atmosphere in the room, as if bearing the soul that lost hope. Eating tasteless instant noodles, Ye Feng tilted his head back and emptied the bowl. He lay down, unwilling to move any further. This abandoned and dissolute life was not meant for him originally; it was the hand of fate! Ye Feng, orphaned at a young age, grew up in a welfare home. Despite diligent efforts in academics, he became the only one from the welfare home to attend college. With the support of the welfare home's subsidies and his hard work, he even earned scholarships. Utilizing his somewhat handsome appearance, he found a girlfriend. However, things changed upon graduation. He had planned to become a civil servant, but unexpectedly failed despite feeling confident in both written and interview exams. Later, through a classmate with connections, he discovered he had indeed passed but was replaced by a wealthy businessman's son. His girlfriend, upon hearing the news of his dashed prospects, promptly ended their relationship. Another classmate informed him that his girlfriend had long been on the list for a wealthy second-generation individual, treating Ye Feng as a mere backup. With both love and career shattered, Ye Feng aimlessly took up a job, leading a wasted life day by day. As he lay there, playing with his phone, Ye Feng glanced at the time—it was only seven o'clock. Well, the household supplies were running out! Thinking of this, Ye Feng sprang up from the bed and headed out. Walking on the bustling street, observing the various people around, Ye Feng felt an unprecedented loneliness. Living in the world without a goal, without relatives or friends, was truly lamentable. "Hey! Young friend, young friend! I can tell you have a remarkable physique. Exceptional appearance! Clearly, you're an extraordinary martial arts talent...!" Just as Ye Feng was lost in thought on the street, a middle-aged man suddenly appeared, urgently calling out to him. From his pocket, he pulled out an exquisitely crafted black and gold book. Ye Feng's lips twitched! Carefully scrutinizing the middle-aged man who appeared out of nowhere, he found that the man had a decent appearance, looking very refined and possessing an extraordinary elegance. However, his current appearance seemed somewhat disheveled, as if he were being chased. Ye Feng wondered why this man was engaged in such business and used such outdated or, one might say, classic lines! What a pity. Ye Feng didn't say much, remembering he had won three thousand yuan in the lottery yesterday and still had some money on hand. He felt a twinge of pity. He directly took out two hundred yuan from his wallet and said, "Alright, old man, spare me the talk. I'll buy this book for two hundred yuan, just right to pad my wardrobe. Farewell!" Ye Feng handed the money to the middle-aged man, snatched the book from his hands, and walked away without looking back. As Ye Feng took the book so readily, the man's mouth curled up with a hint of a cold smile. He instantly disappeared with a "whoosh." If Ye Feng were to turn around now, he would probably discover he had encountered a legendary expert. Ye Feng walked down the street, glancing at the book he had just spent two hundred yuan on. However, he found it had no title on the cover and, when he casually flipped through it, discovered he couldn't open it no matter how hard he tried. Without much thought, Ye Feng entered the supermarket with the book in his bag. Exiting the supermarket after buying groceries, Ye Feng hailed a taxi and went straight back to his humble abode. He tossed the purchased items onto the ground and casually threw the book on top. After resting for a while, feeling his stomach, he realized he was hungry. Gripping a sharp knife, he focused on cutting a massive watermelon. His skilled movements were precise and swift with each cut. However, in one of those instants, he accidentally cut his own finger. Instantly, bright red blood sprayed out, transforming the once quiet room into a scene resembling a pig slaughter. Pain surged through his body like an electric current, distorting Ye Feng's face with a painful expression. Ten minutes later, Ye Feng finally finished bandaging his injured finger. However, he failed to notice that some of the blood he had sprayed, due to excessive force, had stuck to the book he had just bought. Suddenly, the previously inconspicuous book radiated a dazzling multicolored light. Ready to grab tissue paper to wipe it off, Ye Feng stared in astonishment as the book blossomed with captivating radiance. It dawned on him that he might have stumbled upon something valuable. The nameless book, after emitting a brilliant glow, swiftly flew towards Ye Feng and entered his forehead. He immediately felt something new in his mind. After a long while, Ye Feng regained his senses. From his mind, he learned that the book contained an extraordinary cultivation technique—the Sky Harmony Void Breaking Technique. Simultaneously, the book itself was a spatial artifact capable of storing items, similar to a storage ring's function. The book had been acquired by a cultivator named Qing Zhu three hundred years ago, and it unintentionally recognized him as its master. Qing Zhu, having ascended to the immortal realm after just forty years, had caused a great sensation in the cultivation world. Due to the limited spiritual energy in the mortal realm and the influence of cultivation methods, no one had ascended to the immortal realm for many years. Consequently, this book left behind by Qing Zhu became the top treasure in the cultivation world, causing countless tumults. Yet, no one knew how to cultivate with it. Now, by sheer chance, it fell into Ye Feng's hands and recognized him as its master. If the cultivation world found out that the method to recognize this peerless treasure as its master was simply by dripping blood on it, it would likely cause quite a stir. "Hahahahahahahahaha! Is it finally my turn to be the protagonist?" Ye Feng burst into laughter. "Well, let's try cultivating first!" Ye Feng couldn't wait to test the effects. Following the guidance in the Sky Harmony Void Breaking Technique, he eagerly began his cultivation. The cultivation realms in the mortal world were divided into Qi Cultivation, Foundation Building, Core Formation, Nascent Soul, Soul Transformation, Void Return, Mahayana, and Tribulation Crossing. The Sky Harmony Void Breaking Technique also mentioned cultivation methods beyond the realm of immortals, but it was obscured by a mist, and Ye Feng couldn't see it for now. It was likely that he would need to reach the Void Return stage or higher to comprehend it. When he snapped out of his meditation, he realized that the sky was already bright. He was overjoyed; it seemed he was truly on the path to becoming a legendary cultivator. "Young friend! You've awakened! I didn't expect you to have such good fortune, actually becoming the recognized master of the celestial book. But, should you return the book to me?" Just as Ye Feng was ecstatic beyond measure, a sudden voice echoed. "Well! Old man, how did you get into my room?" Ye Feng squinted and found that the middle-aged man who had given him the book yesterday was staring at him tightly. Although he was smiling and speaking, his eyes held a hint of coldness. "I came last night. You actually comprehended the celestial book that no one has been able to for centuries. Return the book to me and tell me the secrets of this celestial book!" The middle-aged man's tone turned colder. "What? Old man, didn't you sell me this book yesterday? And what secrets of the celestial book are you talking about? I have no idea!" Ye Feng felt something was off and quickly denied. "Sell it to you! Hahahahahaha!" The middle-aged man burst into a crazy, sinister laugh upon hearing Ye Feng's words. "I've killed countless people and been chased by numerous sects for this book. Yesterday, I was being pursued by someone else, fearing that the book might be discovered, so I left it with you to safeguard. Last night, I left a mark on you, and after escaping, I followed the mark to your place. I found that an ordinary mortal like you had started cultivating, and the spiritual energy from all directions had been drawn to you. I, a cultivator, haven't seen such a supreme technique cultivated by a mere mortal in hundreds of years. Isn't this comprehending the secrets of the celestial book? Heaven has finally shown its favor. I, a cultivator, will finally obtain it. If you tell me, I can take you as my disciple! Otherwise, I will make you beg for life but get no mercy, beg for death but find no release." The expression on his face turned more insane, imagining the unparalleled power he would soon possess. "To hell with you! I won't let you benefit even if I die!" Ye Feng, unable to endure the excruciating pain, thought quickly. In his mind, three hundred years ago, the cultivator Qing Zhu had left many treasures, including a Divine Transformation Thunder, inside the Sky Harmony Void Breaking Technique. This Divine Transformation Thunder was refined by the Nascent Soul of a cultivator above the Nascent Soul stage and was equivalent to explosives in the mortal realm. However, its power couldn't compare, and whether it could break through a cultivator's protective spiritual energy was uncertain. Even if it harmed the cultivator's body, it wouldn't affect their Nascent Soul. However, this Divine Transformation Thunder was refined by the Nascent Soul of a cultivator above the Nascent Soul stage and could destroy both a cultivator's body and Nascent Soul. The higher the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul refining it, the greater its power. The one Ye Feng obtained from the internal space of the Sky Harmony Void Breaking Technique was refined three hundred years ago by Qing Zhu, who had killed a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. It was a Divine Transformation Thunder with immense power. "You beast! I've obtained a great opportunity, and you come for me. Die!" Ye Feng summoned the Divine Transformation Thunder in his hand. With a gentle squeeze. "No!" The middle-aged cultivator saw the Divine Transformation Thunder and widened his eyes, frantically trying to teleport away. However, the Divine Transformation Thunder was a life-saving tool for cultivators. In the initial explosion, it locked the surrounding space, making almost no sound. Everything in the old residential building where Ye Feng was located vanished into nothingness, leaving no trace. "Fortunately, it's almost the Spring Festival, and most people nearby have gone back to their hometowns!" Ye Feng's last thought flashed through his mind. Then, he lost consciousness forever.
