Chapter 3248 The Ascended Ones from the Ascension Altar

Chaotic void.

Numerous Daoist palaces and universes loomed over the Tixing River, their terrifying Daoist aura sweeping across all directions, and many cultivators appeared here.

Inside the central Dao Palace, Li Yuan sat cross-legged, with a chaotic universe seemingly appearing beneath him, its terrifying and profound Daoist aura flowing around him, and the birth and death of the universe visible behind him.

There was still one person standing in front of him, none other than the Mad Lion Venerable.

"Ancestor, only three thousand cultivators remain in the Holy Land now; the rest perished in that battle!"

The Mad Lion Venerable's voice was mournful, and his rugged face showed both sorrow and an unconcealable rage and murderous intent.

"The destruction of our Qingxuan Holy Land's lineage by the Guanming Realm this time must not be allowed to end!"

"This grudge will naturally not be settled, but with the Heavenly Tribulation imminent, it is not appropriate for me to take action. When the great tribulation arrives, I will make the Guanyin Realm pay the price!"

Li Yuan's eyes were also icy cold, and his Daoist aura suddenly trembled, like the roar of mountains and seas, and the entire Dao Palace was subjected to immense pressure.

But this anger came quickly and disappeared just as quickly.

The wood is done.

Even if we are furious now, it will be of no use.

But the killing intent in Li Yuan's heart never dissipated.

Just as Venerable Mad Lion said, with the destruction of the Qingxuan Holy Land's lineage, such grudges must be settled sooner or later.

Even if the audience has a deep foundation, so what? He himself is still a saint. If he really wants revenge, the former will have to pay a heavy price.

but--

The Heavenly Tribulation is like a sharp blade hanging overhead.

Li Yuan dared not make any rash moves for the time being.

Today's him.

They didn't even dare to leave the Qingxuan Dao Palace.

If it weren't for the Daoist palace obscuring the secrets of heaven, the Heavenly Tribulation would have already descended.

Looking at the Mad Lion Venerable before him, Li Yuan said calmly, "Now that you and I are still here, the Qingxuan lineage is not truly extinct."

You have now entered the realm of a half-saint at the ninth tribulation. When the great tribulation descends, you will have the hope of breaking through to the realm of a saint.

If you can reach the realm of a sage, the sacred land's foundation will likely advance even further.

"In addition... the remaining three thousand disciples will be loyal to the Holy Land at that time, and they can be well nurtured. In the future, there may be a few who will achieve immortality."

In the endless ages of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, it is difficult to find a truly eternally existing power.

As the saying goes, after the worst comes the best. The Azure Profound Holy Land has suffered a great calamity this time, but one day it will surely return to its peak!

Li Yuan's eyes were as deep as a starry sea, as if revealing endless Daoist secrets and heavenly mysteries, and even a corner of the long river of time seemed to emerge from them.

Upon hearing this, Venerable Mad Lion looked respectful and said, "What the Patriarch says is absolutely right!"

Not bad!

The lineage of the Qingxuan Holy Land has not been completely eradicated.

Even if other immortals have perished, so what? At least I am not dead yet, and the ancestor in front of me is still here.

A sage is in charge!

With its three thousand disciples, the Qingxuan Holy Land finally has the strength to fight its way back to the Divine Sun Domain.

The only problem is the speed of time.

But time is often the least valuable thing when it comes to immortality.

Even after hundreds of millions of years, it will have no impact on those who aspire to immortality.

Subsequently.

The Mad Lion Venerable then withdrew.

Within the vast Qingxuan Dao Palace, only Li Yuan remained in seclusion to comprehend the Dao, his sagely Dao suppressing chaos and obliterating galaxies.

"almost!"

"It won't be long before I am able to undergo another Heavenly Tribulation!"

Li Yuan's eyes were deep and unfathomable.

The Azure Profound Dao Palace, which he now governs, is a top-tier treasure capable of concealing the secrets of sages from the Heavenly Dao.

No matter what.

The Heavenly Tribulation, like the Five Signs of Decay of Heaven and Man, cannot be overcome by relying on external objects.

Otherwise, with the Qingxuan Dao Palace present, Li Yuan would have already survived this Heavenly Tribulation and directly suppressed all those half-saints when the Guanming Realm attacked the Qingxuan Holy Land.

Thus.

He also did not need to lead the cultivators of the Holy Land to leave the Divine Sun Domain and recuperate in the chaos.

A thought fell.

Li Yuan then closed his eyes to comprehend the Dao.

……

"Buzz!"

Above the Ascension Altar, as celestial light filled the void and the divine essence of the Great Dao emerged, a figure slowly appeared from within it.

next interest.

A terrifying aura swept over them.

After a long time.

The celestial aura dissipated.

"Is this what they call being infused with immortal energy?"

Dressed in white, the elegant Minghe felt the changes within himself and couldn't help but show a look of shock on his face.

After only a short period of being infused with immortal energy, he found that his cultivation, which had just broken through to the Ancient Immortal Realm, not only stabilized instantly, but his strength also took a big step forward.

Although it didn't reach the point of creating a second Primordial Chaos World, it almost pushed the first Primordial Chaos World to its limit.

at this time.

Minghe finally got a clear look at the scene before her.

There were ancient trees reaching for the sky, gushing springs, and occasionally cranes soaring into the sky. Spirit fish could be seen spitting out water. The vast and rich immortal energy made his cultivation seem to improve with just one breath.

But at that moment, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended, causing Minghe's shoulders to slump, his immortal power and blood to stagnate, and his body to become completely immobile.

"..."

Minghe's expression changed drastically.

at this time.

He then realized that the ancient tree in front of him was a living entity.

Before him, the ancient tree branches swayed, seemingly emanating boundless Daoist charm and divine power. A powerful voice boomed in Minghe's mind, instantly shaking his soul.

"You ascended from the lower realm; I wonder what your origins are!"

Upon hearing this, Minghe immediately cupped his hands and said, "This junior is Minghe, a disciple of Shen Changqing. I have ascended from the lower realm this time. I am unaware that I have offended you in this place. I hope you will not take offense!"

The words fell.

The oppressive aura dissipated instantly.

"So you are the peak master's disciple. You wait here, someone will come to verify your identity!"

Peak Master?

Upon hearing the words of the Enlightenment Tree, Minghe was also taken aback, as if this terrifying being before him held his master in high regard.

In addition-

Minghe also understood another meaning.

That is, after their master ascended to the upper realm, it seems that his status and position were not low.

Just as Minghe was pondering this, a streak of light appeared, and then Gu Qingyang's figure materialized.

"Greetings, Senior Wudao!"

Gu Qingyang first bowed to the Enlightenment Tree, and then looked at Minghe with a joyful expression.

"Senior Brother Minghe, I never expected that it would be you who ascended to the Upper Realm this time!"

"Junior Brother Gu!"

Minghe smiled as he looked at Gu Qingyang, only to find that he could no longer discern the cultivation aura emanating from the other man.

obviously.

Hundreds of thousands of years have passed.

This junior brother's cultivation has also reached an extremely high level.

Gu Qingyang said enthusiastically, "Now that you have ascended to the Upper Realm, Senior Brother, please go and pay your respects to Master!"

"There are some things that you will understand once you see Master."

"That's fine!"

Minghe nodded.

As he followed Gu Qingyang away, he looked back at the ancient tree and couldn't help but ask a question.

"Junior Brother Gu, who was that senior just now?"

"That is Senior Wudao, whose immortal roots were personally nurtured by our master. His strength is quite terrifying. There are probably not many people in the Ancient Immortal Realm who can truly be his opponent!"

Gu Qingyang shook his head, his expression somewhat serious.

Although he did not fight the Enlightenment Tree, he could still sense the astonishing power it contained through his keen perception.

These words caused Minghe's expression to change slightly.

He never expected that upon entering the Upper Realm, this ancient tree alone would possess such astonishing strength.

Seemingly sensing his thoughts, Gu Qingyang smiled and said, "Senior Wudao has existed on Danfeng for countless years. In terms of years of cultivation, even if you and I were to combine our entire cultivation, it would probably not even amount to a fraction of his."

Therefore, having received guidance from his master, Senior Wudao's strength was naturally unmatched by ordinary cultivators!

"I see!"

Minghe nodded.

Gu Qingyang said, "The Nine Heavens Immortal Realm is divided into 3,600 Immortal Provinces, and each Immortal Province has a total of 1,800 Immortal Domains. We are currently in the Divine Wind Province, Divine Heaven Domain."

The place beneath their feet is Dan Peak, one of the nine peaks of the Xuantian Dao Sect.

Although the Xuantian Dao Sect has ten peaks, the tenth peak is the Sin Peak and therefore is not counted. Generally, the outside world only recognizes the nine peaks, not the tenth!

"As for my master, he is the current master of Dan Peak!"

"Furthermore, the Xuantian Dao Sect is a dominant force in the Divine Heaven Domain, ruling over several Immortal Domains, and possesses three Immortal Emperors within its ranks..."

Gu Qingyang truthfully informed Minghe of all the information about the Xuantian Dao Sect.

Upon hearing this, the latter was deeply shaken and remained unsettled for a long time.

From Gu Qingyang's words, he deeply understood the power of the Xuantian Dao Sect, which ruled over several immortal realms and had more than one immortal emperor in charge.

The remaining powerful beings in the Ancient Immortal Realm are even more numerous.

Compare.

The universe is pitifully weak.

With the strength of the Xuantian Dao Sect, if they wanted to destroy all the universes, they could probably just send out a few ancient immortals.

no way.

Despite the fact that the universe is currently in a state of rest and recuperation, there are many more cultivators at the Immortal King level than before.

However, in terms of overall strength, the universes today are actually not as powerful as they were when the great calamity first broke out.

that time.

Although there are fewer Immortal Kings in the universe than there are now, there are still many top-tier experts. Moreover, there was that master who, as an Immortal King, fought against many top-tier beings of the Primordial Immortal Court.

Now look at the present.

There are no longer any powerful beings in the universe who can fight at such a higher level.

There are many other Celestial Kings, but to say that a Celestial King can reverse the fate of an ancient Celestial King and slay an ancient Celestial King is extremely rare, except for ancient and powerful figures like the Heavenly Emperor of the Eternal Celestial Court.

During their conversation, the two arrived at the main hall of the main peak.

"Disciple pays homage to Master!"

Upon seeing the figure above, Gu Qingyang and Minghe both bowed respectfully.

"No gifts."

"Thank you Master!"

The two then straightened up.

Shen Changqing looked at the two people below, his gaze landing on Minghe, a faint smile on his face.

"Indeed, you have ascended from the lower realm so quickly. You have not disappointed me. In that case, Qingyang, take your senior brother Minghe to the Miscellaneous Peak to test your talent, and then come back to see me!"

"Yes!"

Gu Qingyang respectfully accepted the order and immediately led Minghe directly to the Miscellaneous Peaks. (End of Chapter)
