Chapter 196 - 111: The Immortal Gate Opens
Chapter 196: Chapter 111: The Immortal Gate Opens
It was a Flood Dragon pulling the carriage, after all!
Far beyond what any ordinary Demon Horse could compare to.
"Since you’re awake,"
"you can stop pretending to be asleep."
"A moment ago, your heart was beating too fast. Why be so nervous? The one who wants you dead isn’t me..."
In the carriage, Su Chen was drinking. The fine wine from the Heaven-Slaying Sword Gourd was just ordinary liquor, but after being nurtured by Celestial Will and the Heaven-Slaying Sword Qi, it became exceptionally sweet. It could even suppress the Thunder Spirit Mark on his palm.
It had been a long time since he had tasted such a sweet wine.
The only pity was,
the people in this world with whom he could share a drink were becoming fewer and fewer.
"Sigh."
Su Yue sighed, seeing that she could no longer hide.
She leaped to her feet and, inside the dilapidated carriage, knelt respectfully before Su Chen.
"Thank you for saving me, Sword Immortal!"
Su Chen said nothing.
’He appeared outside the battlefield of the Heaven-Slaying battle.’
’A person from the Imperial City.’
’His cultivation is world-shocking. He can easily annihilate a Grandmaster, subdue a thousand soldiers in Black Dragon Armor, and even tame a terrifying Demon Fiend that rides the clouds to pull his carriage.’
’Who else could it be but him?’
"How is Daqian now?"
Su Chen asked.
"The nation is prosperous and the people are at peace. The four corners of the world have submitted."
"Your Majesty is a good Emperor!"
Su Xue answered, trembling.
She never would have imagined that the man she had given a ride to, who looked like a beggar or a herb gatherer, was actually the world-renowned Wind Snow Sword Immortal—a figure from the legends, long said to have died after his lifespan ran out.
This Wind Snow Sword Immortal was the world’s most monstrous prodigy, and also its greatest titan!
He was a friend to the Emperor! He stirred the winds and clouds of the world.
Power and influence were like playthings in his hands.
He was the most supreme figure in the world, bar none.
’A good Emperor, you say?’
’That’s good.’
’But it’s also not good.’
’These Three Fortunes are moving too fast!’
Su Chen gazed into the distance, in the direction of the Imperial City.
Over there, all was silent.
A swath of dark, night sky.
But in his vision, the celestial fortune, dazzling as Golden Light; the earthly fortune, thick and black as ink; and the human fortune, clear as white light and erupting from the Imperial Palace, all converged at this very moment. They gathered into a single point, forming a vortex that slowly spun.
On this day,
on this night,
the Three Fortunes reached their Peak.
A passage like a gateway was slowly taking form.
「In the Fourth Year of Daqian.」
’The Immortal Gate has opened!’
’I hope I can make it in time...’ Su Chen murmured.
In that instant, the wind and clouds changed color.
The Spiritual Qi of the true Human World began to pour into the Palm of the Human World.
In the distant Imperial City, terrifying auras erupted.
And not just one!
They surpassed the Qi Cultivation Immortal Path.
"We’ve succeeded!"
"HAHAHA!"
"As expected, only in the true Human World can one find the path to advance further!"
Wild laughter echoed.
At that moment, within the Great Yu Imperial Mausoleum, the Immortals broke free. These Peak Climbers, who had been trapped at the end of the Qi Cultivation Immortal Path, were all stepping into Foundation Establishment.
No!
The Foundation Establishment created in the Small Human World was comparable to Foundation Establishment, equivalent to Foundation Establishment, but it wasn’t true Foundation Establishment. It was called a Dao Platform.
After reaching the true Human World,
they could use the Dao Platform to undergo a Second Foundation Establishment!
This would allow them to achieve one of the strongest Foundation Establishment Realms!
The effect was far from being as simple as 1+1=2.
"Fellow Daoist Void, are you going to keep waiting?"
"He is already dead!"
"Soon, the Immortal Gate will open wide."
"We hope Fellow Daoist Void will recommend us to the Profound Celestial Grand Sect..."
An Ancient Immortal of Great Yu, now a Dao Platform cultivator, walked toward the Palace Gate. He clasped his hands and smiled at the figure in the Black Dragon Emperor Robe.
BANG!
The next instant.
He was cut down!
With just his Qi Cultivation, Void had slain a Dao Platform expert. He slowly retracted the terrifying Flying Sword, which moved like a snake’s shadow, back into his sleeve as if he had just done something utterly insignificant.
"He... has returned!"
"I saw him!"
Before the Palace Gate, Void, who had waited for three years, stood with his hands behind his back. Clad in the Black Dragon Emperor Robe, he revealed a smile for the first time.
At this moment,
he finally let go of the great weight in his heart.
Finally,
the Ten Extremes Skill and the Ten Lives Body erupted with a terrifying Spirit Charm, transforming into a Spirit Mark and helping him advance toward the Dao Platform!
At that moment,
he became an even stronger Spirit Mark Dao Platform!
「Before the Imperial City.」
A carriage slowly descended from the sky. Su Chen gazed out at the rivers, feeling a faint sense of unfamiliarity.
’So three years have passed.’
’But...’
’I have returned...’
