~14 min read 2,656 words

Nine-Spirit Monarch came in a hurry and left in a hurry.

But everyone who was paying attention to his movements accurately captured this timing.

A secret conversation unknown to the world was held in a certain uninhabited territory.

Since then, representatives from the major Nascent Soul supreme sects began to respond to the Luo Tian Sect's invitation one after another, indicating that they would definitely attend in person to watch the ascension ceremony of the Luo Tian Old Ancestor!

An invisible undercurrent that could have overturned the Eastern Wasteland cultivation world just like that dissipated into the invisible.

Ten years of time passed in a flash.

On Mount Cangwu.

Hall Master He Qingzi of the Crossing Truth Hall and Hall Master Hua Mei of the Day Sky Hall were waiting quietly.

When the teleportation array emitted light, they looked into it with curiosity.

Three figures slowly emerged.

A middle-aged man guarded the front, while behind him were a young married woman and a young lady.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, could this be?"

Xu Muxian stepped out of the teleportation array, bowed to the two, and introduced: "As you think, this is indeed the Master's wife, True Person Yao Yue, and this is the daughter of my Master."

Towards the former, he wore a look of respect.

Towards the latter, he was quite cautious, not even stating her name in detail.

Hua Mei carefully examined the young lady, from her brows and eyes to the corners of her mouth, the contours of her features, and her demeanor and bearing.

"Alike, truly so alike! The world says that the current Sect Master of Luo Tian resembles his father, but that is only a spiritual resemblance; yet the young lady's face is eight or nine parts similar to the Master's, truly as if carved from the same mold! Only these clear eyes, unstained by the slightest dust, are not as deep and bottomless as the Master's."

Her heart was filled with emotion, and she then bowed respectfully.

"Disciple Hua Mei, greets the Master's wife, greets the young lady."

Cheng Haixin nodded calmly; before coming, Xu Muxian had already explained the situation here very clearly, so she was not surprised that Luo Chen had such a disciple.

It was the young girl who, with a pair of clear eyes, was looking around with great curiosity.

"Let's go, according to my calculations, the day is approaching; if we hurry now, we will still make it in time." Xu Muxian did not want to reminisce too much.

Fairy Hua Mei gave a hum, signaled for them to step off the teleportation array first, and then adjusted the array again with He Qingzi.

Not long after, a ray of light lit up, and the five disappeared from Mount Cangwu.

When they appeared again, the five were already walking on a bustling main street.

Xu Muxian, acting as a guide, introduced the situation here to everyone, especially to Cheng Haixin and her daughter.

"This is Shangyou City, where the outer sect of the Luo Tian Sect is located. Do not look at it as just an outer sect; it still has a massive fourth-rank spiritual vein for disciples to cultivate, and there are always Nascent Soul True Persons stationed here."

"After leaving the city, we need to take the Crossing Nether Dharma Boat to head to the Luo Tian Continent."

"The true mountain gate of the Luo Tian Sect is on the Luo Tian Continent, surrounded by the Nether Abyss."

The young girl asked curiously: "Uncle Xu, wasn't it said that Father's ascension is on Mount Yanfu?"

Xu Muxian smiled gently: "Yes, but you don't need to worry, Xiao Tong; I have already arranged a place on Mount Yanfu, and when the time comes, you will be able to see the magnificent scene of your father ascending to the heavens with your own eyes."

Mentioning "Father," the young girl became somewhat nervous instead.

"Let's go!"

One man and four women, three people and two demons, followed the bustling crowd in Shangyou City toward the Nether Abyss.

It seemed as if they were merely one part of the countless busybodies who wanted to watch the Luo Tian Old Ancestor ascend in person.

On Mount Yanfu, the Dragon-Coiling Pillars stood tall, and banners fluttered in the wind.

Twelve large bells were placed solemnly in various positions according to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.

Rays of escape light broke through the air, and upon entering Mount Yanfu, they withdrew their light and walked on foot along the white jade path between the mountains to show respect.

From time to time, acquaintances would bump into each other and greet each other enthusiastically.

In their casual chatter, no one could avoid the grand event of the day.

Everything they talked about was the past of the Alchemy Sect, and everything they chatted about was the Old Ancestor's ascension today.

Among the crowd, there was no lack of Nascent Soul True Persons and sect leaders and supreme elders of various factions.

There was even the sudden appearance of North Sea demon cultivators, which attracted attention.

That was a late-stage Nascent Soul Great Demon Emperor wearing the Wind-Suspended Blade emblem!

When he appeared, it once caused a commotion in the crowd, and it was not until the appearance of the demon monk Kong Chan, the head of the four great spiritual masters of the Luo Tian Sect, who came to receive him, that the crowd quieted down.

Not long after, news spread.

The North Sea cultivation world's North Li Great Saint had sent people to deliver congratulatory gifts and witness the ascension of the Luo Tian Old Ancestor in person.

And this was just the beginning!

Shortly after, representatives from the Southern Border's Life-Death Gate and the Western Desert's Hanging Temple also arrived and were personally received by the top powerhouses of the Luo Tian Sect.

From this point of view, the current Luo Tian Sect was already a genuine Soul Transformation holy land, capable of standing on equal footing with the holy land forces of other continents.

Among the crowd, Xu Muxian's group wove through.

Suddenly.

Xu Muxian, who was walking in front, stopped his steps.

The young girl behind him was somewhat puzzled, "Uncle Xu, what's wrong?"

Xu Muxian did not look back, but bowed to a group of people coming toward them, especially the leader.

"Sect Master!"

Luo Lingxi nodded and, leading the sect's top brass, was about to enter the Luo Tian Grand Hall.

But as they brushed past each other, his steps stopped abruptly.

A pair of majestic eyes met those clear, spring-like eyes.

Then, he carefully examined the young girl's beautiful yet incredibly familiar face.

The group of Luo Tian top brass following him had not noticed at first, but gradually, upon seeing the young girl's cheeks, they could not help but become restless.

Exclamations rang out softly.

Facing the gaze of a group of top powerhouses, the young girl, no matter how bold she was, could not help but feel awkward.

Xu Muxian realized something and subconsciously blocked in front.

"Sect Master..."

"No matter!"

Luo Lingxi pushed Xu Muxian aside with his hand, staring at the young girl with flickering eyes, and finally, his expression became gentle.

"May I ask how this... little girl is addressed?"

The young girl was quite awkward and said awkwardly: "My name is Qing Tong."

"Little friend Qing Tong?" Luo Lingxi met that face that resembled his father's so much and already understood everything, "Meeting is fate; this jade pendant can calm the heart and ward off evil, so I shall gift it to you!"

Looking at the jade pendant that was still warm flying toward her, the young girl Qing Tong hesitated somewhat; she subconsciously looked at her mother.

Cheng Haixin nodded calmly.

Only then did the young girl Qing Tong receive it solemnly.

Luo Lingxi smiled slightly and then patted Xu Muxian on the shoulder.

"Senior Brother Xu, take good care of her."

Xu Muxian nodded, "I know."

After speaking, Luo Lingxi led the crowd away and went straight into the Luo Tian Grand Hall.

The group of Luo Tian top brass behind him followed closely, but from time to time, someone could not help but look back.

That kind of face, except for the clear eyes that were like springs and had not seen much of the world, was almost exactly the same as the Old Ancestor.

Could it really be the Old Ancestor's bloodline from outside?

"Is it a younger sister?"

Luo Lingxi asked himself this in his heart; the answer was actually already very obvious.

He suppressed his inexplicable emotions and finally stepped onto the last step.

Inside the hall, two figures also walked out at the same time.

Two women were each dressed in gorgeous palace attire, with a graceful, noble, and elegant bearing.

Luo Lingxi bowed and then asked: "How is Father's preparation?"

Gu Caiyi's expression carried a sense of reluctance, "In ten years, your father's magic power has long since recovered, and his state has reached its peak; in fact, there is no need to prepare anything at all, ascension is just following the will of heaven."

Cang Long's gaze swept over the crowd and finally landed on Luo Lingxi.

"You go in!"

Luo Lingxi responded heavily and walked quickly into the grand hall.

And in the square below, Xu Muxian's group had just squeezed out of the crowd and headed toward a pavilion with flying eaves on Mount Yanfu.

The young girl named Qing Tong held the jade pendant that was still warm, feeling somewhat inexplicably confused for a moment.

"Uncle Xu, the person you called Sect Master just now, why..."

Before Xu Muxian could answer this question, Qing Tong gradually realized.

The current Sect Master of the Luo Tian Sect, named Luo Lingxi, his father was Luo Chen.

She gripped the jade pendant tightly, suddenly enlightened.

"So it was my older brother!"

Xu Muxian shook his head upon seeing this and did not explain anything, just took the group up to the Star-Gazing Tower.

When passing by a fair-skinned man, he took a curious look but didn't pay much attention.

At such a grand event, too many prominent Eastern Wasteland powerhouses had come to observe the ceremony, so it was normal for him to have Nascent Soul True Persons he didn't recognize; after all, he hadn't been in the Eastern Wasteland for long.

Bo Hanjun withdrew his gaze from Xu Muxian's group, a thoughtful look appearing on his face.

"Is that a bloodline descendant related to Senior Luo Chen? How could they look so alike?"

This thought had not lingered for long before Bo Hanjun's gaze suddenly froze.

On the white jade steps in the distance, a figure leaped out of the crowd and issued a grand voice.

"Begin!"

The next moment, dragons coiled around the pillars, and banners fluttered.

Twelve bell tolls rang out one after another, and the clear sound spread throughout Yanfu, and under the blessing of the array, it spread layer by layer to the entire Luo Tian Continent.

Wisps of spiritual energy swam from all directions and poured into the Luo Tian Grand Hall.

The masses became silent because of this.

Suddenly, clouds and smoke rose, and a massive phantom slowly rose from the grand hall, revealing itself to the world.

The phantom was huge, like a tree canopy covering the sky and blocking the sun.

Those with a little knowledge understood its essence upon seeing this scene.

"The soul crosses to the yang, the Nascent Soul transforms into a god; this is the Primordial Spirit!"

And for the Great Demon Emperor of the North Sea's Hanging Blade Peak who came uninvited to observe the ceremony, his demeanor could no longer be maintained, revealing a look of shock.

"Such a massive Primordial Spirit, it actually far exceeds my Old Ancestor! How is it possible, didn't he just reach Soul Transformation?"

The Primordial Spirit phantom did not care about the commotion of the crowd observing the ceremony, but just stood quietly in the void, letting the main body draw in a massive amount of heaven and earth energy.

Within his eyes, it was clearly visible that invisible spiritual opportunities were coming from all directions.

The quantity was so great that it far exceeded anything he had seen in his life.

Whether it was Chu Yan's ascension, You Li God Monarch's ascension, or even the ascension of the three demons of Cangwu, the spiritual opportunities they drew were far inferior to his own at this moment.

Luo Chen had a flash of inspiration and already understood everything.

All of this was because he had comprehended the true meaning of the four great laws of earth, fire, water, and wood.

If he continued to grow, he would master the authority of the four great laws and become a unique existence in this world, almost comparable to the Heavenly Dao of this small world.

Therefore, when he ascended, he was able to draw such massive spiritual opportunities.

It was both a farewell and a way to drive away guests!

"If it is better to leave, then leave!"

Muttering, Luo Chen released the restrictions on his Purple Mansion, his spiritual sense permeated the wilderness, letting the power of heaven and earth bless his body.

The next moment.

In the endless Nether Abyss, black lotus flowers emerged.

On the earth, spiritual energy gushed out like a spring.

Not only that, between the heavens, colorful clouds gathered and chased after, as if the evening glow were chasing the moon.

The rosy light emerged spontaneously at this moment.

Countless cultivators watched this scene, their minds captured by it.

Black lotuses born from the sea, spiritual springs gushing from the earth, colorful clouds chasing the moon, and thousands of rays of rosy light!

Four great phenomena appeared simultaneously; such an ascension could be called unprecedented in history.

Luo Chen swept over the area below with great attachment; this was his last look at the Mountain and Sea Realm.

An inexplicable sensation made his heart shrink.

Casting his gaze to the Star-Gazing Tower in a corner of Mount Yanfu, Luo Chen understood instantly.

Amidst the joy, there was also a touch of guilt.

Without a word, he flicked his finger.

The young girl who was holding her breath watching this scene on the Star-Gazing Tower suddenly felt her eyes become confused, and she lost her focus for a moment.

When she woke up, the massive Primordial Spirit phantom had already dissipated.

Only an endless clear energy originating from outside this world fell down, hanging in threads and sprinkling onto the Luo Tian Continent.

Subsequently, there was the second clear energy, the third, the fourth... until thousands, countless.

The clear energy hung down, and the immortal path was opened!

This was the sign of ascension in ancient books!

Amidst the thousands of rays of rosy light, a figure went further and further away, finally disappearing into the vast universe.

The young girl rubbed her brows and looked blankly at the woman beside her who was in a daze.

"Mother, has Father left?"

Cheng Haixin's eyes were filled with tears, she pursed her lips and gave a heavy hum.

The young girl felt somewhat lost, but then a smile appeared on her face.

"Father saw me at the end and even spoke to me."

Cheng Haixin was stunned.

Just at this moment, the twelve clear bell tolls rang out again, drifting far and wide.

A gentle voice that the young girl was familiar with earlier rang out, spreading in all directions.

"The ceremony is concluded!"

"Respectfully send off the Old Ancestor to ascend to the Immortal World!"

Subsequently, the sound of mountain-shaking and sea-roaring cheers rang out in unison.

From Mount Yanfu to the Luo Tian Continent.

Wherever human footprints reached, all were chanting.

"Respectfully send off the Old Ancestor to ascend to the Immortal World!"
