The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal-Chapter 1194: Shocking News
Chapter 1194: Chapter 1194: Shocking News
Shenzhou Continent.
After soaking in the Ascension Pool for a long time and thoroughly branded with the mark of Shenzhou, Earth Immortal Xu Qian finally emerged from seclusion.
"Welcome, fellow Taoist to your ascension!"
No sooner had he stepped out of the Ascension Grand Hall, Xu Qian encountered the Jiaoyang Ancient Saint, whose body radiated blinding sunshine, making his eyes almost unable to open, and he hurriedly lowered his head.
"I am Jiaoyang Ancient Saint, the Ascension Envoy of Shenzhou!"
The competence of Jiaoyang Ancient Saint in handling his duties was impressive. Upon seeing the bewildered expression on Xu Qian’s face, he immediately proceeded with the related introduction, arranging everything clearly.
...
Tianlan Immortal Realm.
More and more cultivators flocked to the vicinity of the forbidden land upon hearing the news, and after some inquiries, they all learned that someone had entered and soon after successfully transcended the immortal tribulation, becoming an entirely new Immortal Realm.
Instantly, the crowd was astir.
No one knew what had happened inside.
However, many cultivators left their Soul Lamps behind.
After entering the forbidden land, their Soul Lamps would soon shine with a brighter light, indicating that the Cultivation Level of their main body had increased by a Major Realm.
And what could this be, if not ascension to immortality?
"The old man is going in!"
A venerable peak Demi Immortal immediately entered the forbidden land.
"I’m also going in."
"Wait for me."
More cultivators entered the forbidden land.
As the news spread, even the high-rank Immortal Realms gathered around, standing outside the mist of the forbidden land, continuously staring into the depths of the mist-enshrouded forbidden land, seemingly lost in thought.
Inside the Tianlan Forbidden Land.
More and more peak Demi Immortals transcended their tribulations.
After entering the Ascension Passage, seventy percent chose to enter Shenzhou, while the remaining thirty percent opted for the Minor Immortal Realm.
"Haha! The allure of Shenzhou is truly strong."
The Heavenly Dao of Shenzhou was all smiles.
Frankly speaking, he too knew that the reason seventy percent chose Shenzhou was largely due to Ye Feng’s formidable prowess, which had already made quite a name for himself in the Tianlan Immortal Realm.
"How frustrating!"
The Replica Ancient Saint, holding the Replica Mirror, sighed heavily.
...
Shenzhou Continent.
Jiaoyang Ancient Saint received dozens of newly ascended Human Immortals and the voluntarily ascended Earth Immortal Xu Qian, and headed to the nearby Jiaoyang Holy Land.
"Fellow immortals, this is Jiaoyang Holy Land."
"Everyone, please reside here for the time being."
"Once you are familiar with Shenzhou, you can choose to join other Holy Lands or establish your own Holy Land."
"I will continue to guide other immortal friends."
Jiaoyang Ancient Saint arranged for Yuzhu to take care of the immortals.
...
Outside the Tianlan Forbidden Land.
Two Immortal Venerables arrived here.
They were native Immortal Venerables from Tianlan Immortal Realm, deeply attached to this place and usually in secluded cultivation.
At this moment, they stood suspended in the air.
"Everyone who entered the forbidden land has become an immortal?"
"What’s going on here?"
The two Immortal Venerables were puzzled.
"If you’re curious, why not enter the forbidden land and see for yourself?" Ye Feng’s voice reached the ears of the two Immortal Venerables.
"It’s Ye Feng!"
Although they had not participated in the grand battle, they had observed Ye Feng’s epochal fight with Tianluo Immortal Venerable from a distance and were somewhat familiar with Ye Feng’s voice and aura.
"You want to deceive us?"
"If we enter the forbidden land, then we can’t come out—won’t we be trapped by you?"
The two Immortal Venerables shook their heads repeatedly.
They dared not step into the forbidden land at all.
"Afraid to come in? Then let me ’invite’ you in!" Ye Feng’s voice sounded.
"This is bad!"
The two Immortal Venerables’ expressions changed, and they turned to leave.
But then, a rosy light surged.
The two Immortal Venerables only managed to take three steps forward before they were engulfed by a strange force, their bodies moving backwards involuntarily, plunging into the vast and ancient Tianlan Forbidden Land.
Crack! Snap!
Within the forbidden land, the sound of thunder was incessant.
The two Immortal Venerables looked at the peak Demi Immortals undergoing tribulation at the center of the Tianlan Forbidden Land, their eyes nearly popping out.
"So many people are undergoing the Celestial Tribulation?"
"They seem to be enveloped in a strange energy that weakens the power of the Tribulation."
"Huh!"
"What is that passage that can take people away?"
The two Immortal Venerables were stunned by the scene before them.
"That is the Ascension Passage."
The voice of Ye Feng materialized out of thin air.
The two Immortal Venerables turned towards the voice and saw Ye Feng, Replica Ancient Saint, Shenzhou Heavenly Dao, and Chu Tianlan standing high in the sky.
Upon laying eyes on Chu Tianlan, the two Immortal Venerables felt a familiar supreme aura, and their pupils constricted.
"Heavenly Mandate, sir!"
"You have transformed into a human?"
The two Immortal Venerables were profoundly shocked.
"Indeed!" Chu Tianlan nodded.
"You could have lived forever, holding the utmost position in Tianlan Immortal Realm; why would you give up such a bright future?"
The two Immortal Venerables were puzzled.
Chu Tianlan replied with a sneer:
"What’s so great about becoming an indifferent Heavenly Mandate?"
"Eternal life without freedom is meaningless."
"Besides, the me of the past had already transformed to the peak, incapable of further progress. It’s better to become human and, by my own efforts, gradually surpass the peak of my former life."
"By the way, you can call me Chu Tianlan."
His words left the two Immortal Venerables dumbstruck.
Abandoning eternal life as easily as he did could only be the resolve of Chu Tianlan.
"We pay our respects to fellow Daoist Ye Feng!"
Amidst their shock, the two Immortal Venerables looked towards Ye Feng, hurriedly bowed in salute, not daring to show the slightest disrespect.
Ye Feng’s prowess was clear for all to see.
It would be effortless for him to kill them.
"The two of you need not worry; I won’t kill you. I have called you here merely to announce a matter," Ye Feng said with a smile.
Originally, Ye Feng had not planned to announce the news so hastily.
But!
With the two Immortal Venerables coming to him on their own initiative, he decided to meet them and disclose the matter of the Ascension Passage.
"What matter?"
The two Immortal Venerables were anxious.
They felt that Ye Feng might be about to announce the takeover of the Tianlan Immortal Realm.
If that were the case, it would not be unacceptable.
After all, Ye Feng’s strength was well known; everyone would indeed feel convinced if he were to rule Tianlan Immortal Realm.
However, Ye Feng’s next words took them by surprise.
Ye Feng said:
"The Spiritual Energy and Immortal Qi of Tianlan Immortal Realm are being devoured. In a hundred years, it will surely decline to the level of an ordinary Great Thousand World, something you should be able to sense as well."
"This leads to a very realistic problem."
"Where should high-rank cultivators go from here?"
"For low-rank cultivators, becoming a Saint or an Immortal in any part of the Great Thousand World has little impact; at most, the time it takes to cultivate into an Immortal will be a bit longer than before."
"But for high-rank cultivators, especially Earth Immortals, Heavenly Immortals, and Immortal Venerables, cultivation will be very difficult."
"Therefore, I have a suggestion,"
"That is, the Starry Sky World will open its gates and welcome the high-rank cultivators from Tianlan Immortal Realm. Just enter Tianlan Immortal Realm and stand on the Ascension Altar, and you will be able to ascend."
"Don’t worry about the world after ascension failing to meet your cultivation needs because the Immortal Qi and Spiritual Energy being lost from Tianlan Immortal Realm right now are flowing towards the world after ascension."
"Now do you understand?"
Hearing this, the two Immortal Venerables were even more stunned.
How could they fail to understand Ye Feng’s words?
"You... you are turning Tianlan Immortal Realm into a subordinate interface of the Starry Sky World?"
The two exclaimed in shock.
"Precisely," Ye Feng nodded. "By the way, once you ascend, you will be deemed as having joined the ranks of Starry Sky World, and if fate allows it, perhaps we will become fellow sect members."
Upon hearing this, the two Immortal Venerables fell silent.
This matter was too significant.
They could not make a decision in such a short time.
"The two of you, consider it well," Ye Feng said with a smile. "Also, the power of Tianlan Forbidden Land has weakened. Any Immortal Venerable can now freely enter and exit."
"Fellow Daoist Ye Feng, please allow us to return and consider thoroughly," both Immortal Venerables spoke in unison.
"Go ahead!" Ye Feng nodded. "You may discuss this matter with the other Immortal Realms as well. Whether to ascend should be their personal choice; I won’t force them."
"Fellow Daoist Ye Feng, Heavenly Mandate sir, we take our leave!"
The two Immortal Venerables gave a bow and then bid farewell to Ye Feng and Chu Tianlan among others, swiftly vanishing away.
