Chapter 573 - 573 Ascended Immortal (1)
573 Ascended Immortal (1)
Under many gazes, there was still movement in the huge pit.
A black hand reached out from the sand and Song Shi crawled out in a sorry state.
“It’s still fierce enough,”
He grinned, highlighting the snow-white teeth under his charred mouth.
He shook his head and recovered from the concussion of the impact.
He walked out of the soil and a green light appeared on his body. His flesh squirmed and with a cracking sound, new flesh grew out. Blood scabs and charred skin fell and were buried in the soil.
All the cultivators were shocked.
If he did not die, he must have successfully transcended the tribulation and was qualified to ascend to the Immortal World.
Thinking of this, they became excited and looked up at the sky in anticipation.
In the huge pit, Song Shi heaved a long sigh of relief and also looked at the sky.
After the dark clouds dissipated, a ray of light suddenly sprinkled down.
The world suddenly lit up. The remnant clouds were dyed into auspicious clouds. The seven-colored light landed on Song Shi’s body, bringing with it an incomparably warm power. It made Song Shi’s mind jolt and his fatigue dissipate.
In the multicolored light, drops of green immortal rain landed on Song Shi’s body. The Dharmic powers consumed in his body immediately recovered.
He did not do anything. His body floated in the multicolored light, and a guiding force brought him up.
Amidst the multicolored light, with a rumbling sound, the void fluctuated and slowly cracked open, revealing a huge immortal door.
This door was made of white jade. It was carved with dragons and phoenixes and was engraved with auspicious clouds and immortal talismans. It was filled with a divine and vast aura.
He could vaguely see a corner of the Immortal World inside the door. There was an immortal palace floating above the white cloud and a divine beast, an immortal bird, soaring in the void.
The immortal voice echoed as countless Laws jumped on the door, transforming into everything in the world. It was indescribably profound.
A pressure that surpassed the rules of the Mystic Spirit Realm appeared. The entire world seemed to submit to it. The mountains trembled and all living beings fell silent.
The surrounding cultivators were shocked. When they saw the Laws in the world change, they all focused their attention, hoping to obtain their own comprehension from it.
Song Shi calmly observed the immortal sect and muttered, “Is this the door of the Immortal Court?”
Wuyou did not answer. Song Shi estimated she probably could not show her face now for fear of being discovered.
As expected, a special fluctuation landed on his body, as if it was investigating his situation. Indeed, there was nothing wrong with him, so he sped up the guide.
As he approached, the multicolored light became brighter and brighter. Song Shi felt the various laws of heaven and earth appear at a close distance and exclaimed.
The level of these derived laws was much higher than his own. It was as if they were alive and changing as if the origin of the universe had appeared.
He looked at it seriously and was unknowingly guided into the door. A powerful spatial fluctuation enveloped him, and then the world changed, bringing him away in an instant.
In the outside world, the light began to converge. The immortal door slowly closed and gradually faded.
The Myriad Star Sword Emperor looked at Song Shi’s disappearing back and thought to himself, “One day, I will also step through this door and ascend to the Immortal World.”
He was not the only one. All the Mahayana cultivators present revealed yearning expressions.
Becoming an immortal was their ultimate dream. Now that they were watching others ascend, who could remain calm?
The person they were envious of was enveloped by a layer of multicolored light and was traveling through the void at an unbelievable speed.
“This is similar to a teleportation that transcends the Mystic Spirit Realm and the Immortal World!”
Song Shi praised. If the teleportation he experienced in the Mystic Spirit Realm could cross half a world, it would be more than ten thousand times faster.
He could vaguely see worlds being crossed as he constantly approached the behemoth in front of him.
“I wonder if this law of ascension exists naturally or was created by some Almighty.”
A question suddenly arose in Song Shi’s heart. After some thought, he felt that it was more likely that it was artificially created.
As he advanced, he felt the pressure on his body increasing continuously. He frowned slightly. Was this a normal situation or had something changed?
“Don’t let anything happen to you. I don’t want to get lost again.”
He prayed in his heart, but the pressure did not stop increasing. In the end, he could not even move.
The area ahead was getting brighter and brighter. Song Shi subconsciously narrowed his eyes.
This lasted for a long time. A violent spatial vibration came. Song Shi felt that his soul was about to leave his body. Even with his powerful body, he felt dizzy and could not help but want to faint.
Fortunately, the power of his body triggered him, preventing him from fainting. He did not last long before his entire body suddenly became light and he appeared in a world from the multicolored light.
Plop!
Song Shi was thrown into a pool of water. After a while, he finally stabilized.
He swam instinctively and popped his head out of the water. He took a deep breath and saw an unfamiliar world in front of him. He was in a huge pool and surrounded by a huge square engraved with runes.
Before he could take a closer look, a surprised voice sounded, “Eh, this is the first time I’ve seen someone who can still wake up after ascending. It’s not simple.”
Outside the pool, a middle-aged man in a white cloud-patterned green robe sized up Song Shi in surprise.
“How should I address you, sir?”
Song Shi realized that the water was not deep and had already touched the bottom. He stood up and looked at the latter. He could sense pressure, which meant that the other party’s cultivation level was higher than his.
“I’m Di Ling, the guide of the Immortal Court’s Ascension Platform. As an ascender, it’s quite rare for you to have such strength. I haven’t encountered such a person in hundreds of thousands of years. I think you can enter a top immortal sect.” Di Ling said with interest.
“Top-notch immortal sect…”
Some memories of the Thunder Immortal Monarch appeared in Song Shi’s mind and he understood what he meant.
The latter thought that he was unfamiliar with the situation in the Immortal World and explained, “It’s like this. Our Immortal World will provide ascenders with the opportunity to join the various immortal sects, and you ascenders are all top figures in the lower realm. The various immortal sects are inclined to take you in as new blood.”
“When do we start?”
Song Shi knew that he could not leave directly at this time, so he followed the other party’s arrangements.
“Fellow Daoist, soak in this Mortal Transformation Pool for seven days and seven nights first to remove the mortal aura on your body. After a while, I will gather you ascenders to make a trip to the Ascended Immortal Gathering. In there, you will be valued by the various immortal sects.”
Di Ling explained.
When Song Shi heard this, he sat calmly in the water. He indeed felt a purifying power cleansing his essence, energy, and spirit, washing away some things.
“Ascenders are much more mature and stable than immortals in this world. Fellow Daoist, you should be one of the top powerhouses in the plane you’re in, right?”
Di Ling was rather talkative. “However, after coming here, most of them have become existences without any background. Is there anyone in your inheritance who has a high status in the Immortal World?”
“No.”
Song Shi shook his head.
“Then you have to cherish this Ascended Immortal Gathering. At this meeting, many immortal sects will send people to choose ascenders. Once they enter the immortal sects, they will be able to obtain abundant resources and save a lot of trouble.”
Di Ling smiled. “I think highly of you. With your foundation, you should have a chance to enter a high-grade immortal sect. In the future, your immortal path will be smooth and you can leap above the immortals.”
