Behind the heavy dark clouds, lightning flashed, and the roaring sound of the heavenly tribulation was so deafening it seemed the heavens themselves would collapse. Since Ju Yin ascended, her long hair fluttered in the wind. At this moment, the three within the barrier suddenly felt a premonition, their hearts inexplicably pounding as they gazed at their Revered Master directly striking upwards. They recovered after adjusting their breathing.
"Divine Venerable!" Zhao Yangzi and Feng Chu exchanged glances. That was indeed their Divine Venerable. Only a Divine Venerable possessed such an aura that scorned the heavenly way!
"Heaven-Smiting Slash!" Ju Yin's robes billowed in the wind. Stepping on a green lotus, she stopped at a certain spot, her clear and cold face calmly uttering three words.
A seemingly ordinary beam of light flashed across the sky, piercing into the clouds. Half a breath later, above the thick cloud layer, it was as if the sky had swallowed something incredibly hot. The dark clouds turned crimson, expanding and expanding. With a boom, they exploded with earth-shattering force. All the dark clouds vaporized. A breath later, the heavenly way rumbled a few times, as if unwilling, but it could no longer gather tribulation clouds. It retreated.
The sky suddenly brightened. Ju Yin flicked her sleeve, and the three within the barrier ascended, hovering in mid-air around her.
"Revered Master!" The three excitedly cupped their fists in greeting!
"Useless! Double your training every day!" Ju Yin, without even looking at them, her cold voice echoing in their ears. The three were ecstatic; she had truly returned.
"Yes!"
A breath later, five beams of auspicious light shot down from the nine heavens, illuminating Ju Yin and the other four.
The five-colored auspicious light shone upon the five. This light was immortal spiritual energy, capable of slowly transforming their spiritual power into immortal power. Qi Mo also reverted to human form, feeling the nourishment brought by the immortal power. The golden ascension pathway opened, and faint immortal music seemed to resonate. The five, accompanied by this lingering melody, slowly ascended into the heavens.
Ju Yin sealed the space using a secret technique to prevent the heavenly way from detecting her carrying the space, and also to prevent it from detecting the people within the space.
Concurrently, heavenly rain descended, nourishing the ravaged land after the tribulation. Wherever it went, life sprouted, spiritual energy revived, and fires vanished, transforming the land into a blessed realm!
Bi Fang and those from the Tianxing Continent who had been hiding in the shadows emerged. They received the heavenly gift, and several with exceptionally high talent immediately advanced several realms.
Suddenly, an object shot towards Bi Fang. He caught it with his hand – it was a spiritual ring. Upon examining it with his divine sense, he discovered it contained countless spiritual herbs and twenty purple bamboo gourds, suspected to be spiritual liquid. Bi Fang's throat suddenly tightened. These were precisely what he needed most. There were too few useful spiritual herbs in this heavenly realm for him, and he had thought his ascension was hopeless.
"This little immortal, how can she be so captivating? After this parting, who knows when we will meet again?" Bi Fang was filled with gratitude. He hadn't expected Fairy Ju Yin to bestow such precious items. If they met again in the future, he would surely repay her generously!
Those who had the fortune to witness this scene were filled with envy. No one had ascended from the Tianxing Continent in ten thousand years. They were also deeply impressed by the strength of the ascendants. Under such terrifying lightning tribulation, it was almost impossible for ordinary people to survive. Like the patriarch of the Yun clan five hundred years ago, he hadn't survived the seventy-two lightning tribulations and became a scattered immortal. He had barely survived and saved his life, but he had also lost the path to longevity. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been treated like a dog by the Taiyi Sect. https:/
The speaker spoke without reservation. The entire Taiyi Sect was now flattened; who would fear them now!
"Yes! Especially that female immortal, her cultivation is peerless. Not only did she slay the fierce beasts, but she also split the lightning tribulation with a single sword, ascending with her subordinates. How fortunate are their subordinates! Envy! Utter envy!"
A man spoke excitedly. His magic artifact was a long-range viewing mirror with recording capabilities, allowing him to observe from a distance, thus he was clear about the entire scene. It was good; selling this information would earn him spirit stones, and with spirit stones, he could cultivate. He also wanted to ascend. Thinking this, he quickly slipped away. He had enjoyed the heavenly rain; why stay any longer! With the Eastern Taiyi Sect fallen, the forces on the Tianxing Continent would inevitably be redivided. He had to report this to his sect quickly.
Seeing him fly away after speaking, the people beside him were bewildered and continued, "You don't know this, but that female immortal is the master of the Nine-tailed Divine Beast. Since ancient times, the Nine-tailed Divine Fox has brought auspiciousness, so its master must have great fortune!"
"So that's how it is, so that's how it is!" The crowd agreed. They were all benefiting from this heavenly rain and felt a sense of gratitude. In the centuries that followed, this land produced people with exceptionally high talent, and countless individuals ascended to the immortal realm.
With the fierce beasts removed, Bi Fang also needed to discuss the matter of withdrawing the barrier with Patriarch Chaotian and then went into seclusion to focus on his cultivation, no longer concerning himself with worldly affairs.
At the same time, the Ninth Prince, who was in seclusion, suddenly felt something. He had been injured by Bi Fang and thus missed the matter of going to the Tianxing Continent. A jade pendant in his hand suddenly emitted a cold voice.
"Ju Yin has ascended, return immediately!"
The Ninth Prince calmly got up, made some arrangements, and then sent out a message.
Upon returning to his chambers, a dark shadow emerged eerily from the Ninth Prince's body and disappeared.
Not long after, cultivators on the Tianchen Continent learned that the Ninth Prince of the Imperial City had suddenly fallen into a coma, and no medicine could cure him. The imperial court issued a decree across the land, seeking renowned physicians to come to the capital.
Patriarch Chaotian received a message from Bi Fang and came to the room of Sect Master Cha. Sect Master Cha looked out the window, his back to Patriarch Chaotian.
"My dear boy, they have a father-son bond with you in this life; it is your good fortune. Do not be overly anxious or gain nothing. These are from Yang'er and Xiang'er." Patriarch Chaotian handed Sect Master Cha a spiritual ring.
Sect Master Cha had also received the news: they had ascended to the immortal realm, creating a separation between mortals and immortals. He suddenly understood his wife's actions. She merely couldn't bear to part with her two sons, which led to one mistake after another!
Sect Master Cha took the spiritual ring and scanned it with his divine sense. Upon seeing the message inside, he suddenly covered his eyes and couldn't help but weep bitterly! The heavenly way cycles, karma repays, sparing no one!
The note read: "Father, the spiritual herbs and medicines within can cure your old ailments. Cultivate diligently from now on, and you will surely meet again! I had also prepared them for Mother, but Mother did not give me the chance to hand them to her! These were all bestowed by the divine maiden, Fairy Ye Ju! Take care!"
Patriarch Chaotian already knew, but many things were already destined. Having harmed the divine maiden, karma had been formed, and Madam Zhu's end could no longer be changed!
"Old Ancestor, can you also cure your spiritual roots?" Sect Master Cha looked hopefully at Patriarch Chaotian.
"My dear boy, do not force it. Yang'er and Che'er also gave me a portion. As for whether I can resume cultivation and ascend to the upper realm, I have long since let go of these things. It is all by fate." Patriarch Chaotian was open-minded and did not care! He had injured his own spiritual roots back then to maintain his combat power, cutting off his path to ascension. He had made his choice long ago and had nothing to complain about.
"Old Ancestor, please try. I'm scared. I hope to ascend with you too." Sect Master Cha, both happy and excited, held Patriarch Chaotian's hand. Ever since he could remember, he had been raised by the Old Ancestor. A child who lost both parents cherished the person who gave him protection the most.
"Old Ancestor, if you don't try, I won't want them either. I'll stay with you in this world, going through the cycle of life and death."
"Nonsense! How can this be treated lightly! A thousand-year-old person is still like a child!" Patriarch Chaotian reprimanded him sternly.
Alas, alas, children and grandchildren are all debts!
