Free Web NovelChapter 1089: Chapter 474: Enemy from the Sea of Realms
The number of cultivators from the lower realm becoming immortals is decreasing, but the troubles they face after ascension are increasing. ƒreewebɳovel.com
First, they must detach from the world, which makes them extremely uncomfortable when confronting the vast energy of the Sea of Realms.
Second, they must head to the Immortal Realm, the suitable abode for an immortal, but traversing this vast Sea of Realms is necessary.
Now that the Saint Ancestor has ascended, had Ning Qi not been prepared in advance, he might not have been able to remain in the True Martial Spirit Realm at all.
Ning Qi and two others stayed within Ten Thousand Venerable Mountain and acquired the location map of the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm given by the Golden Key.
"The landmark of Great Wilderness Immortal Realm is now clarified, boy, what are your thoughts?"
asked the Saint Ancestor.
Ning Qi placed additional items upon the Enlightenment Plaza.
The tea table for tasting tea, the meditation mat for enlightenment.
He took water and boiled tea, serving a cup to each of the two.
Ning Qi responded, "At this moment when the Saint Venerable has ascended, let’s raise a cup in celebration, please!"
The three drank Enlightenment Tea while engaging in a lively discussion about future plans.
Ning Qi continued, "Although Sea Venerable and I haven’t ascended, we’ve also received the baptism of Immortal Radiance, and with our Immortal Dao Technique, I estimate we should have the strength corresponding to True Immortal First Grade in the Immortal Scripture."
True Immortal Ninth Grade, the first three grades are where immortals gather the fruit of the great Dao.
However, True Immortal First Grade often doesn’t involve the Dao; they have just broken through from Unity Realm, undergone the baptism of the Immortal Door, completely transforming their body and soul, producing perfect power within, the very foundation of immortal power.
The Saint Ancestor, for sure, is genuinely a True Immortal First Grade; he still needs to adapt to the new powers and stabilize his cultivation.
Other than not having reported to the Immortal Realm and staying there, he’s not missing anything else.
Moreover, with Ning Qi’s transformation of Ten Thousand Venerable Mountain, within it, there is abundant Immortal Wood and Immortal Grass, and vitality is rapidly recovering, nearly like a miniature Immortal Realm.
Yet, Ning Qi and Sea Ancestor, although not genuine True Immortal First Grades, their strengths are equal.
If truly ranked by strength, the Saint Ancestor dares not claim himself the first.
He’s uncertain whether he can defeat Ning Qi; Ning Qi, after all, has a record of slaying Mountain Ancestor and that was long ago.
Therefore, the strength ranking should be Ning Qi first, Saint Ancestor second, Sea Ancestor third.
"The Great Wilderness Immortal Realm is too far; as the master of True Martial Spirit Realm, I won’t consider it for the time being, what do you think?"
Sea Ancestor lightly pursed her lips, "I have no objections."
The Saint Ancestor drank a mouthful of hot soup, "I have no objection either; going to Great Wilderness Immortal Realm now might be like throwing oneself into the net."
He’s merely asking for Ning Qi’s opinion; should he really go alone, his fate would be left to Great Wilderness Immortal Realm.
"Since neither of you objects, let’s continue cultivating here in Ten Thousand Venerable Mountain; with vitality fully restored within, it should suffice to sustain the energy needs of the three of us."
The Saint Ancestor sat cross-legged on the meditation mat, perceiving the energy around him.
"Thanks ought to be given to Mountain Ancestor; had he not summoned the remnants of Buzhou Mountain from the depths of Sea of Realms, where would the present mini Immortal Realm be?"
He chuckled, "If it goes on for a while, once the energy of Immortal Grass and Immortal Wood within this realm begins to circulate fully, I think we three don’t need to go to any Immortal Realm."
Ning Qi nodded slightly.
"I can only say let’s enhance our own strengths, as for the Immortal Realm, we’ll have to visit it someday."
His eyes gleamed with determination, reluctant to stay confined within True Martial Spirit Realm.
The Sea of Realms is boundless; finally having the strength to traverse it, one must explore the distance.
Exploration might bring unknowns, even dangers, but opportunities come along.
Then, the three continued their exchange of insights.
With Mountain Ancestor’s immortal body available for experiments and the proof from Saint Ancestor’s ascension, their strengths slowly and continually grew.
Certainly, they would occasionally allocate time to summon some cultivators from True Martial Spirit Realm into Ten Thousand Venerable Mountain, impart and resolve their doubts, enhancing the overall strength of True Martial Spirit Realm.
...
Great Wilderness Immortal Realm.
The Vice Palace Master Infinite Dao personally escorted Li Donglin sneakily out of Great Wilderness Immortal Realm.
Li Donglin’s face was pale, his eyes revealing an expression of extreme reluctance.
Originally thinking he’d found an opportunity in the Selection Immortal Pavilion, never did he expect a sentence would lead Elder Jiang Shou of the Celestial Punishment Pavilion to banish him to the Sea of Realms.
He looked back at the Vice Palace Master Infinite Dao behind him, and weakly said:
"Vice Palace Master, I’m sorry, Donglin has embarrassed you."
Infinite Dao sneered, "You still know what embarrassment is, boy?"
Li Donglin smiled awkwardly; Infinite Dao was laid-back, unlike other elders and palace masters in the palace who were rigid and earnest.
So his thoughts became lively.
"Donglin has been marked with the secret Destruction Curse; could you, dear elder, not plead with Elder Jiang Shou for mercy, to spare me?"
Infinite Dao slapped him on the head, saying:
"You boy, don’t you understand Elder Jiang Shou’s disposition? He always stands firm in his decisions; you dared to hide something from him. Furthermore, asking me to plead for mercy? I’d owe a favor for you, wouldn’t I lose greatly!"
Li Donglin’s head hung as low as a partridge.
"But Vice Palace Master, you don’t have to personally escort me, do you? Of what status and honor are you?"
Infinite Dao looked back at the grand Great Wilderness Immortal Realm, waved his hand nonchalantly.
"Do you understand human relationships and etiquette, kid? Can’t you drop the ’Vice’?"
Li Donglin shrank his neck.
"I’d like to drop it but fear others might hear it, thinking you, dear elder, are preparing to seize power and rise."
Infinite Dao slapped again.
"If you spent less time pondering such schemes, you’d have long gathered the fruit of the great Dao. Didn’t you wait in the Selection Immortal Pavilion for an opportunity, now having me accompany you to the lower realm, isn’t it also an opportunity?"
Li Donglin was stunned.
