Chapter 3181 Ascension Altar

"senior--"

Yunxiaozi's expression changed slightly. Just as he was about to ask a question, he saw Shen Changqing drift away, leaving him unable to utter the words he was about to say.

at this time.

The other cultivators from Yuxiao Temple also had their expressions constantly changing.

An elder looked at Yunxiaozi, who was in the lead, and asked, "Master, what should we do now?"

Hear the words.

Yunxiaozi's expression changed several times, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "Retreat!"

Even if one is unwilling in their heart.

But Yunxiaozi didn't dare to gamble.

Even that senior was described as a terrifying being, someone that Yuxiao Temple could not possibly deal with.

We will not retreat now.

In case there really is a problem.

Then it is very likely that we will all be wiped out here.

Yunxiaozi had no doubt about whether Shen Changqing's words were true or false.

In his opinion.

Such beings would never deceive themselves with words.

What's more.

To be strictly speaking...

I do have some kind of relationship with that person.

Now that the other party has offered guidance, Yunxiaozi naturally wouldn't be ungrateful.

Opportunity is crucial!

But life is more important!

If one is unaware of the dangers within the Wuchen Immortal Sect, then so be it.

Now that things are clear, it's impossible to stay any longer.

withdraw!

That is the only way.

Seeing that Yunxiaozi had made a decision, the others still had different ideas, but for the time being they could only obey orders.

soon.

The cultivators of Yuxiao Temple left Wuchen Immortal Sect.

When Yunxiaozi came out of the Wuchen Immortal Sect, he also exhaled a breath of turbid air, and the shadow that had been hanging over his heart had now dissipated.

This time.

Yuxiao Temple gained nothing and instead lost a group of cultivators for nothing, making all their efforts futile.

But thinking of the potential dangers involved, Yunxiaozi felt relieved.

In addition-

He had other ideas.

That is, if all other forces are defeated by the Wuchen Immortal Sect, then the Yuxiao Temple may well have a chance to become the dominant force.

Think of this.

A cold glint flashed in Yunxiaozi's eyes, but it quickly subsided.

now.

The other cultivators waiting outside were somewhat taken aback when they saw Yuxiao Temple leave.

"What happened? Why did everyone from Yuxiao Temple leave?"

"Could there be some danger within the ruins of this sect?"

Some cultivators' expressions changed; they had originally wanted to go inside, but now they were all hesitant.

However, some people are not afraid of these things. On the contrary, they believe that with Yuxiao Temple leaving, they will have one less competitor.

Yunxiaozi naturally ignored these matters.

……

the other side.

With a flick of his finger, Shen Changqing sent a storage ring directly to the front of the Shocking Wave Demon God.

Seeing the joy on the other person's face, he said, "The Northern Star Domain is likely to face a lot of trouble. You must not get involved with the Dustless Immortal Sect."

If things don't go well, you can leave the Northern Star Domain and head to other Immortal Realms!

"May I ask, Your Excellency, what exactly is the Wuchen Immortal Sect?"

The Demon God of Surging Waves' expression changed slightly. The fact that the person before him treated him with such caution was enough to show that the Wuchen Immortal Sect was no ordinary sect.

After all, as a member of the Xingdao Alliance, Jingtao Moshen knew very well what kind of power the other party possessed.

Immortality cannot be achieved.

The number of beings in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm who can truly threaten the other side is very small.

Shen Changqing uttered a single word: "Spiritual possession!"

Just one simple word.

This caused the Demon God of Surging Waves to change his expression drastically.

"Does Your Excellency mean that the Wuchen Immortal Sect is haunted by evil spirits?!"

Shen Changqing has now asked the Xingdao Alliance to collect information about evil spirits. Although they haven't obtained much useful information, it's enough to make the Xingdao Alliance understand how terrifying evil spirits are.

If the Wuchen Immortal Sect is truly related to evil spirits, then it will be an catastrophic disaster.

Shen Changqing said, "To be precise, that place is a trace of the evil spirit left behind, and the destruction of the Wuchen Immortal Sect is related to it."

Now that the restrictions have appeared there, there's no guarantee that the power of the evil spirits won't overflow.

If it really comes to that, it might affect the entire Northern Star Region!

"I will be careful."

The Demon God of Surging Waves took a deep breath and then nodded.

An aura of evil spirits!

They are not to be underestimated.

He had made up his mind that he could not stay in the Northern Star Domain and could only go to other Immortal Domains.

In any case, with his own strength, the Demon God of Surging Waves is confident that he can establish himself in other immortal realms.

-

Leave Beichen Domain.

Shen Changqing returned to the Xuantian Dao Sect.

This time, it took him less than a month to travel back and forth.

After returning to the sect, Shen Changqing appeared in the sect's forbidden area under the identity of Taixuzi.

"I've met the ancestor!"

Both Aoki and Seikyu greeted him respectfully.

With a flick of his sleeve, Shen Changqing conjured a stone tablet that suddenly appeared and stood before the two of them.

"This stone tablet contains the legacy of an ancient sect from the distant past. Currently, the Xuantian Dao Sect lacks a top-tier Immortal Emperor's legacy. With this sect's legacy, the sect's foundation can be further strengthened!"

"You two have both reached the Immortal Emperor realm for some time now, and you should be able to comprehend this technique and find an opportunity to break through!"

Shen Changqing said calmly.

He had no use for the legacy of the Wuchen Immortal Sect.

However, it cannot be denied that the Immortal Scripture of Dustlessness is indeed a top-tier Immortal Emperor's inheritance, capable of pointing directly to the perfect realm of the Nine Directions Universe.

The biggest drawback of the Xuantian Dao Sect today is the lack of its lineage.

The founder of the sect, the Immortal Emperor Xuantian, was merely an Immortal Emperor who had created two Five Immortal Universes. His strength was not among the weakest of the initial Immortal Emperors, but it wasn't particularly strong either.

The upper limit of the immortal emperor legacy left behind by such beings was already predetermined.

Unless the Xuan Tian Dao Sect produces a peerless genius with extraordinary talent, who might be able to build upon the legacy of the Xuan Tian Immortal Emperor and deduce subsequent cultivation techniques, thus contributing to the sect's foundation.

But in fact.

Achieving this is easier said than done.

Therefore, Shen Changqing brought back the inheritance of the Wuchen Immortal Sect, which in turn fulfilled Li Jingyi's last wish.

After all, we cannot revive the Wuchen Immortal Sect, but at least we can preserve its legacy.

"A top-tier Immortal Emperor's inheritance!"

Aoki's face twitched, his eyes filled with barely suppressed excitement as he looked at the stone tablet inscribed with the Immortal Scripture of Dustlessness, his heart already in turmoil.

Over the years.

Aoki was constantly searching for the path to becoming an Immortal Emperor.

This factor was also a factor in the Xuantian Dao Sect's conquests of various factions.

But a pity.

The inheritance of immortal emperors is extremely rare.

The lineage of top-tier Immortal Emperors is as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

To date, Aoki has not been able to achieve his goal.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will likely stop at the initial stage of Immortal Emperor.

Now that a top-tier Immortal Emperor's inheritance is right in front of him, how could Qingmu not be excited?

Even Qingxu, who was standing to the side, found it difficult to remain calm at this moment.

This is how it is passed down.

This is enough to greatly enhance the foundation of the Xuantian Dao Sect.

As long as an unparalleled genius is born, they can use this inheritance to step into the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm, and elevate the sect's prestige to a new level.

Why is it that most of the world's rising prodigies come from top-tier forces, while prodigies from ordinary forces are few and far between?

While the vast territories of top-tier forces are a factor, attracting many talented individuals who come seeking their favor.

But to be honest...

The inheritance of sects also has indispensable factors.

Without a sufficiently powerful lineage, many prodigies simply fade into obscurity.

Those truly exceptional individuals who can forge their own path without relying on the legacy of their predecessors are always few and far between.

now.

The Xuantian Dao Sect has no shortage of geniuses.

There are at least three peerless geniuses who are able to ascend the Immortal King Stele.

The remaining geniuses, though not as good as these three, were still quite formidable.

It can be said.

The only thing the Xuantian Dao Sect lacks right now is a sufficiently powerful lineage.

at the moment.

The Immortal Scripture of Dustless Appears.

This undoubtedly made up for the sect's biggest deficiency.

At least before they reached the pinnacle of immortality, the Xuantian Dao Sect had few weaknesses.

Shen Changqing said, "The Daoist aura of this stone tablet cannot be maintained for too long. In the future, only the most outstanding talents of the sect can comprehend this kind of inheritance."

"Once another top-tier Immortal Emperor emerges from the sect, who can continue the legacy for future generations, then the conditions can be relaxed!"

"We disciples understand the Master's words!"

Both Aoki and the other person nodded.

Subsequently.

Shen Changqing also disappeared into the forbidden area.

The remaining two, Qingmu and Qingxu, stared intently at the Wuchen Immortal Stele, trying to comprehend the top-tier inheritance within it.

This is the inheritance of a Celestial Emperor that points directly to the perfection of the nine universes. If we can comprehend it, we might also be qualified to step into such a realm.

Speaking of talent.

Aoki and his companion considered themselves to be just as good.

at this point.

It's not that they're overconfident.

Any cultivator who can reach the Immortal Emperor realm in such a celestial realm can be considered to have top-tier talent.

and so.

Aoki and Aoki had enough confidence.

Not to mention that the Xuantian Dao Sect now controls three immortal realms, has abundant resources, and is guided by top-tier inheritances. It is not impossible for them to reach the peak of the Immortal Emperor in the future.

-

While the two were meditating, Shen Changqing had already returned to Danfeng.

He left behind the Immortal Scripture of Immortality.

Whether Aoki and the other two can comprehend its mysteries depends on their individual circumstances.

now.

Shen Changqing's attention was entirely focused on the matter of the Ascension Altar.

"To forge an Ascension Altar, one must find a Space-Breaking Stone. Only by using the Space-Breaking Stone as a foundation can the Ascension Altar be truly forged."

Information about the Ascension Altar surfaced in Shen Changqing's mind.

Breaking the universe stone!

It is something that can only be born when a universe is in a state of self-annihilation.

The Cosmic Destruction Stone contains the power to destroy a universe. Although this power is not enough to break through the barrier of a microcosm, it can indirectly communicate with such a universe.

Normally.

These products of the destruction of the universe should be considered precious.

But this is not the case.

The reason is simple.

Beyond the Nine Heavens Celestial Realm, in the vast chaos, countless microcosms exist, and almost every so often, a universe is destroyed, causing the demise of trillions of living beings.

After all, every world has its lifespan, just like cultivators.

However, when the universe comes to an end, it will not simply perish, but will trigger a cataclysmic catastrophe.

Such a great calamity.

It is like the five signs of decay that a semi-saint faces.

If we can get through this.

They can then enjoy endless carefree years.

But if one cannot overcome this obstacle, the result will be death and the annihilation of one's spiritual essence.

Just like the universe in the beginning, it faced a great calamity. Later, the universe overcame this calamity and was naturally reborn.

But the problem is.

Not all universes can survive the catastrophe.

Can't get through.

The fate of these universes is predictable.

and so.

Space-breaking stones are not uncommon.

As far as Shen Changqing knew, the Xuantian Dao Sect currently possessed the Breaking Space Stone.

Once you obtain the Space-Breaking Stone, things will become much simpler.

Immediately.

Shen Changqing used his authority to directly exchange for a Space-Breaking Stone. Before long, a cultivator came to Danfeng and personally presented the Space-Breaking Stone.

Looking at the chaotic-colored stone before him, an aura of annihilation filled the surroundings, and the Daoist principles permeated the air, revealing the birth and death of the universe.

"Earth-Breaking Stone!"

As Shen Changqing grasped the stone, the power of annihilation became even more pronounced.

"Even a universe has its end. How many cultivators can truly achieve immortality?"

He felt a little emotional.

Immortality!

It doesn't mean you can be immortal!

Even immortals die.

Just as the universe will eventually perish.

However, for most cultivators, the universe is vast and seemingly eternal.

Take a deep breath.

Shen Changqing cleared his mind of all distractions.

Subsequently.

He then obtained some materials for refining the Ascension Altar from the Xuan Tian Dao Sect. Since he couldn't collect all the remaining materials, he started with the Heavenly Demon Holy Land and the Xingdao Alliance.

The process was almost without any setbacks.

In just a few days, Shen Changqing had collected all the materials for the Ascension Altar.

Next.

It is the altar for refining ascension.

this process.

It wasn't that easy either.

The Ascension Altar requires engraving Dao patterns on the altar to attract the power of the Great Dao, and then communicating with the microcosm of the universe; only in this way can it be successful.

among them.

The Ascension Altar is divided into the Mother and Child Altars.

The child altar serves as a guide, while the mother altar represents the origin.

Shen Changqing studied the crafting method of the Ascension Altar in the Seven Profound Divine Tower, and it wasn't until a hundred years later that he finally grasped its profound mysteries.

Followed by.

Shen Changqing then began refining the product.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, the Azure Jade Emperor Fire appeared, its terrifying temperature engulfing everything. Shen Changqing systematically added the corresponding materials and then used the Ninth-Order Immortal Fire to forge and temper them.

As part of the Ascension Altar, the other materials are also of high quality, requiring at least the ninth tier.

Fortunately.

Shen Changqing's Azure Jade Emperor Fire had already advanced to the ninth rank.

Therefore, refining these materials is not a major problem.

As time passed, many materials gradually melted. Shen Changqing remained calm, adding other materials while controlling the temperature of the immortal fire to prevent it from completely incinerating them.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

Shen Changqing cast a series of spells, and the two altars gradually took shape.

When the Ascension Altar had fully solidified, Shen Changqing waved his hand to disperse the Azure Jade Emperor Fire, and then used his divine sense as a blade to carve the Great Dao Divine Runes on the altar.

this step.

This is of utmost importance.

Shen Changqing's expression was extremely solemn as he inscribed Daoist principles into the ascension altar, causing this supreme treasure to produce various wondrous effects.

Just as Shen Changqing felt his divine sense was becoming somewhat exhausted, the first ascension altar was finally completed.

Subsequently.

Shen Changqing did not rest and immediately began to inscribe the Dao patterns on the second ascension altar.

The same approach.

But I felt much more comfortable doing it than the first time.

Not long after.

The Dao patterns on the second ascension altar were also fully depicted.

"Now comes the final step!"

Shen Changqing looked at the two ascension altars in front of him, flicked his finger, and two drops of essence blood merged into them.

boom--

The instant the essence blood fell into the ascension altar, the two supreme treasures were suddenly filled with celestial light, and a terrifying power erupted, directly sweeping across a portion of the void.

a long time.

This aura gradually subsided.

When Shen Changqing looked at the two ascension altars again, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"It's done!"

Successfully refined in one go.

This relieved Shen Changqing.

now.

The Ascension Altar is now complete.

The next step is to send the sub-altar directly into the universe; only then can the great task be truly accomplished.

Otherwise, if you only manage to create an ascension altar but it cannot function, then it is no different from failure.

Immediately.

Shen Changqing left the Seven Mysterious Divine Tower.

The time it took him to refine the Ascension Altar was not too long; only a few years had passed in the outside world.

Arriving at the Enlightenment Tree.

The immortal root swayed slightly, and a respectful voice followed.

"This humble immortal greets Peak Master!"

With a flick of his sleeve, Shen Changqing created an ascension altar.

"This is the Ascension Altar. From this day forward, you will be responsible for guarding this altar and will not allow anyone to approach it without permission. If any cultivator comes out of the Ascension Altar, you must inform me immediately!"

"I understand!"

The Enlightenment Tree respectfully accepted the command.

Subsequently.

Shen Changqing focused his mind on the ascension altar before him. The moment his divine sense connected with the altar, he felt as if he were in endless chaos, with a mysterious force carrying his mind through the void.

In no time at all, a starlight appeared in sight.

As you get closer, the starlight gradually expands. When you finally stand before it, you will discover that what you call starlight is actually a vast and boundless universe.

Standing before this universe, Shen Changqing felt as insignificant as an ant.

"The entire universe!"

As he looked at the universe before him, a familiar feeling, a surge of excitement coursing through his veins, welled up within him.

Using one's own essence and blood as a guide, what one finds is naturally the entire universe.

For a while.

Shen Changqing was also experiencing a surge of thoughts.

But that's it.

That mysterious power enveloped his mind and headed directly toward the cosmic barrier.

The anticipated impact did not occur; such force easily penetrated the entire cosmic barrier.

A familiar scene came into view.

this moment.

Shen Changqing felt as if he had returned to the myriad universes.

The vast starry sky!

Infinite worlds!

Everything was so familiar, as if the universe had remained unchanged for hundreds of thousands of years.

Although Shen Changqing is now only a divine thought, such a divine thought can still sweep across the entire universe and take everything into view.

at the same time.

All the heavens and the universe.

Many powerful individuals suddenly opened their eyes, their faces showing a look of surprise and uncertainty.

Before they could figure out what was happening, the heavens and the universe trembled, and the light of the Great Dao descended from the chaos, heading directly toward the ancient continent.
