Chapter 221: Becoming an Immortal!
After settling matters with the Martial Sect, you arrived in Central State, preparing to head for the Heavenly Blade Sect.
You knew that with your current cultivation, you were completely incapable of contending against the Wilderness Clan that was about to emerge, relying on your strength alone.
For this reason, you chose to unite the great ancient powers to face the Wilderness Clan together.
With your Great Vehicle stage cultivation, you silently infiltrated the forbidden grounds in the back mountain of the Heavenly Blade Sect, where the past Ancestors of the Heavenly Blade Sect were buried.
You took out the Sect Master's token of the Heavenly Blade Sect obtained in the last simulation, smoothly entered the forbidden grounds, and without another word began digging.
The Heavenly Blade Sect Ancestor, Ancestor Yunyi, was just like that dug out by you, fresh and lively.
Afterward, you reasoned with emotion and moved him with logic, ultimately persuading Ancestor Yunyi to choose to stand with you against the arrival of the Wilderness Clan.
At the same time, in the name of the Heavenly Blade Sect, you gathered the sects that had not submitted to the Wilderness Clan in the last simulation.
Though some doubted the authenticity of your information, after you revealed your Great Vehicle stage cultivation, everyone wisely shut up.
"Twenty Great Vehicle stage cultivators… with my understanding of the Wilderness Clan, it's still somewhat difficult." Looking at the powerhouses you had gathered, Ancestor Yunyi sighed, clearly not holding much hope.
"That's enough." You smiled faintly, and with twenty Great Vehicle stage powerhouses and over a hundred Tribulation Transcendence cultivators, headed for the Void Battlefield.
Along the way, the Great Vehicle stage powerhouses wore varied expressions. As Old Monsters who had lived for over ten thousand years, they clearly had some guesses about your destination.
Yet no one ever raised an objection. After all, dealing with the Wilderness Clan was your shared will.
Seven days later, you arrived at the village entrance. Looking at the familiar village, you entered it on behalf of everyone.
A day later, the Village Chief stood at the village entrance leaning on a cane, gazing at the sky from afar.
A moment later, a figure slowly emerged. It was the Heavenly Dao avatar.
"Ten thousand years have passed, old friend. Accompany me in battle one more time!" The Old Village Chief lightly stroked the cane in his hand, murmuring to himself.
The cane, originally dim and lightless, instantly emitted a dazzling radiance, shedding the dust upon it and revealing its true appearance.
"Kill!" The Old Village Chief took the lead, and with a single staff strike scattered the Heavenly Dao avatar.
You led everyone to follow the Old Village Chief's pace, charging together into the depths of the nine heavens' clouds, heading straight for the thirty-three heavens where the Heavenly Dao resided. Soon, the obstruction of the Wilderness Clan's Great Vehicle stage powerhouses was drawn out.
A world-destroying battle, under your leadership, quietly began.
Time flew like a shuttle. A thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
Over this thousand years, you fought endlessly, passing through life-and-death crises more times than could be counted, and slaying more Wilderness Clan cultivators than could be counted.
Of the over a thousand powerful cultivators who had originally followed you, only you remained, stepping onto the thirty-third heaven and coming face to face with a Sky-Piercing Giant, the Heavenly Dao.
"Not bad, to actually fight your way here. I truly underestimated you." A voice devoid of all emotion rang out. Your nerves instantly pulled taut. Gripping the Immortal Sword already dyed red, you surveyed your surroundings, finally discovering the voice came from within the Sky-Piercing Giant's body.
Sensing the opponent's unfathomable aura, you thought of the Fellow Daoists who had fallen along the way. Without fear, you struck!
"Even if you are an Immortal, I will kill you all the same!"
You, whose cultivation had long since reached the peak of the Great Vehicle stage, made your move!
Above the Profound Heaven Continent, the originally clear and cloudless sky instantly erupted with lightning and thunder.
Heavenly Lightning rolled, exploding in every corner of the continent, as if the heavens had grown angry and sent down divine punishment.
Mountains shifted, rivers changed course. Countless spirit birds circled in the sky. The spirit beasts seemed to sense your battle, letting out shrill cries.
Just as the cultivators of the various powers were at a loss, in the Northern Region, Martial Dao cultivators called the Martial Sect emerged, beginning to campaign against the Wilderness Clan in every corner of the continent.
In Central State, the Heavenly Blade Sect, the Bai family, the Purple Mist Immortal Dynasty, and other great powers all responded, launching attacks on the Secret Realms where the Wilderness Clan hid within the continent.
For a time, battles raged everywhere.
Those cultivators who slew Wilderness Clan cultivators suddenly felt their minds become clear and luminous, and their cultivation began to break through without any warning.
This great battle lasted several decades. On a certain day ten years later, a figure covered in blood descended from the sky, still holding a head in hand.
"Immortals are nothing special." You grinned.
Overnight, the surviving Wilderness Clan cultivators suddenly dropped dead in every corner of the continent, dying on the spot.
The visitors from a foreign realm of ten thousand years ago, on this day, finally all perished.
The continent once again fell into calm, until a hundred years later…
A ray of rosy light fell upon your place of secluded cultivation. The spiritual power within your body had already been completely converted into immortal qi.
In this moment, you sensed the guidance from the Immortal Realm. The Road to Immortality, once blocked, was open!
In the next moment, in every corner of the continent, rosy lights descended one after another, guiding those who would become Immortals.
Looking out, you saw the Old Village Chief, leaning on his cane yet full of vigor.
You saw the Heavenly Blade Sect Ancestor, Ancestor Yunyi.
You saw many Seniors who had survived that battle.
At this moment, everyone involuntarily turned their gazes toward you and cupped their hands. "Fellow Daoist, see you on the Road to Immortality!"
"See you on the Road to Immortality!" You suddenly began to laugh, laughed heartily, and accepted the guidance of the Immortal Realm!
The End.
