Free Web NovelChapter 111: Divine Firmament Codex
The Skyspire Order’s recruitment trial was held within a secret realm.
Countless inheritances lay hidden inside. Anyone possessing the right talent and aptitude would inevitably be chosen by one of them.
Those destined for an inheritance did not need to search for it.
The inheritance would find them.
Caelum happened to be one of those people. The moment he entered the secret realm, he was already chosen.
The instant he stepped onto the stone staircase...
Buzz!
Something deep within his bloodline seemed to awaken.
The flawless body he had forged through Initiate Realm Layer 360 erupted with boundless Vital Essence.
Boom!
Almost instinctively, he took a step forward.
A force weighing thousands of tons surged out alongside his Vital Essence.
The mountain itself remained unmoved, yet a thunderous roar echoed across the heavens.
Boom!
Another step.
The sound resembled an ancient bell being struck.
With every step, the Vital Essence surrounding Caelum grew stronger.
Crimson energy shot into the sky, staining the radiant clouds red and leaving onlookers stunned.
Elsewhere within the secret realm, a young man had just pulled a broken sword from the ground.
He was still celebrating his good fortune when the deafening roar echoed from the distant mountain.
The overwhelming Vital Essence made his heart tremble.
"What is going on?"
The phenomenon was impossible to ignore.
Before long, everyone in the secret realm had noticed it.
Numerous Ascendants rushed excitedly toward the radiant mountain.
"Such an incredible sign! There must be a supreme inheritance waiting at the summit!"
One after another, they charged toward the staircase.
Then, the moment they stepped onto it, an immense pressure descended.
Their expressions changed instantly.
"Ah!"
"Pugh!"
"How can this be?!"
They were sent flying down the stairs, coughing blood as they tumbled back to the foot of the mountain.
Staring at the calm and unhurried Caelum, their disbelief quickly turned to anger.
"Why?"
"We’re all in the Initiate Realm!"
"Why is he allowed to claim that inheritance while we’re rejected?"
"This isn’t fair!"
The Skyspire Order paid their protests no attention.
The elderly Daoist overseeing the trial, however, was visibly shocked.
His gaze remained fixed on Caelum’s steadily ascending figure.
Then realization struck him.
"Hurry!"
"Notify all the Elders at once. Something extraordinary is happening!"
"Yes!"
The disciple beside him immediately transformed into a streak of light and vanished.
Moments later, streams of radiant light entered the secret realm.
The Elders of the Skyspire Order had arrived.
The old Daoist bowed respectfully.
"Elders."
The moment they saw the scene before them, excitement spread across their faces.
The Grand Elder stroked his beard and burst into laughter.
"Heaven truly favors the Skyspire Order!"
"Hahaha!"
"The Divine Firmament Blade has finally awakened!" fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
"This is destiny itself!"
The Grand Elder stared at Caelum’s figure shrouded in endless Vital Essence, unable to hide the shock in his eyes.
"A Divine Physique has emerged."
"No wonder the Divine Firmament Blade reacted so strongly."
"A Divine Physique?"
One of the Elders immediately understood.
"I was wondering how someone at the Initiate Realm could possess such an enormous amount of Vital Essence."
"What kind of Divine Physique is it?"
The Grand Elder answered without hesitation.
"The Worldbreaker Physique."
A physique capable of overwhelming an entire era through sheer personal strength.
A physique destined to suppress all rivals beneath heaven.
That was the true meaning behind the Worldbreaker Physique.
It was also another name for the flawless body Caelum had forged upon reaching Initiate Realm Layer 360.
A flash of sword light suddenly streaked through the sky.
A Sword Adept attempted to ride his flying sword straight to the summit, hoping to claim the inheritance before Caelum.
A bolt of heavenly lightning descended.
Boom!
The Sword Adept was instantly reduced to ash.
The other eager Ascendants immediately shrank back.
Any thoughts of competing vanished on the spot.
All that remained was envy.
Some couldn’t conceal their jealousy.
"Damn it. Why couldn’t that opportunity have been mine?"
Caelum ignored everything happening below.
He simply continued climbing.
One step after another.
Never stopping.
Until he finally reached the summit.
The peak was completely empty except for a single ancient bronze sword.
Buzz!
The sword trembled violently.
The moment Caelum arrived, it unleashed an overwhelming Sword Intent.
Its terrifying aura felt capable of cutting down everything beneath the heavens.
A strand of Sword Intent shot upward into the sky.
The sight was nothing short of magnificent.
Without hesitation, Caelum walked forward and grasped the sword.
"So this is my inheritance?"
Instantly, everything froze.
The wind ceased.
The clouds became still.
The world itself seemed to pause.
The vast Vital Essence surrounding him retreated into his body.
Then the scenery changed.
He found himself standing within a mist-covered realm that resembled a celestial paradise painted into existence.
Before him floated an ancient scripture filled with profound mysteries.
One glance was enough.
He immediately understood what it was.
A cultivation method.
A complete one.
From the Initiate Realm all the way to Immortal Ascension.
Nothing was missing.
It was exactly what he had been searching for.
Its name was the Divine Firmament Codex.
Without wasting any time, Caelum sat down and committed the scripture to memory.
Then he began cultivating according to its teachings.
The moment he reached the Awakened Realm section of the Divine Firmament Codex, the bottleneck within his body shattered.
There was no resistance whatsoever.
He stepped directly into the Awakened Realm.
[Cultivation Increased]
[Realm: Awakened Layer 1]
As a precaution, he chose not to activate the Secret of Transcendence here.
The moment he entered the Awakened Realm, World Essence flooded into his body.
Thanks to the incomparably solid foundation he had built through Initiate Realm Layer 360, the amount of energy his body could contain far surpassed that of ordinary cultivators.
The Initiate Realm strengthened the body.
The Awakened Realm marked the true beginning of controlling energy.
From this point onward, Ascendants could absorb World Essence into their bodies and wield the energies of heaven and earth to perform Mystic Arts.
Flying swords and wind riding were now well within reach.
Rumble!
A massive vortex of World Essence formed overhead.
The energy poured into Caelum’s body in a frenzy.
Only after half a day did the phenomenon finally subside.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself back atop the mountain within the secret realm.
The Divine Firmament Blade was no longer in his hand.
It floated quietly within the radiant clouds once more, no longer displaying any unusual activity.
An elderly Daoist with white hair stood before him.
The old man stared at him with blazing eyes. freewёbnoνel.com
"From this day forward, you are the Heir Apparent of the Skyspire Order."
"You shall carry our legacy and our path into the future."
Curious, Caelum asked,
"May I ask who you are?"
The old man waved his sleeve.
The two transformed into streaks of light and shot toward the depths of the Skyspire Order.
"You may call me Master Heavensreach."
"I am the Master of the Skyspire Order."
"From this day onward, you are my personal disciple."
"Since you have inherited the Divine Firmament Codex, your title shall be Firmament."
"Yes, Master."
That very day, astonishing news spread throughout the Ascendant World.
A heaven shaking phenomenon had appeared during the Skyspire Order’s recruitment trial.
A peerless genius had entered the sect.
On that same day, the Skyspire Order’s Heir Apparent was officially revealed.
He was none other than the personal disciple of Master Heavensreach.
The entire Ascendant World erupted.
The Skyspire Order stood among the most powerful sects in existence and held tremendous influence throughout the world.
The title of Heir Apparent would never be granted unless someone truly worthy of carrying the sect’s destiny and legacy had appeared.
It was far more than a title.
The bearer effectively represented the sect itself.
Everyone who heard the news found themselves asking the same question.
What kind of unparalleled prodigy had convinced the Skyspire Order to choose him as the one destined to carry its legacy into the future?
