Chapter 2159 The Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, The Celestial Ascension Form
Behind the mist and clouds above the main island in the Saint Land of the Fire Worship Sect, there were numerous floating islands at four different levels. At the highest point, there was only one floating island. Below this island were five floating islands, and below that were ten floating islands. At the very bottom, there were fifty floating islands.
Zoom! Zoom! Zoom! Zoom! Zoom!
The wind howled as figures from all directions headed to the highest floating island. All of them came to a halt simultaneously when they arrived as though they had rehearsed it before.
Sanctum Leader Lu Tie of the Azure Dragon Sanctum was one of these people. The Sanctum Leaders of the Vermillion Bird Sanctum, White Tiger Sanctum Leader, and the Black Turtle Sanctum had also come. Apart from them, there were a few Golden Flame Elders as well. Even Dong Yuan Jin, the Vice Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall had come with the other Vice Hall Masters of the Enforcement Hall. Furthermore, two unfamiliar cultivators at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage were there as well. They were stronger than Lu Tie and Dong Yuan Jin. These two people were the Vice Sect Leaders of the Fire Worship Sect.
Lu Tie, Dong Yuan Jin, and the others paid their respect to these two people since their status as Vice Sect Leaders of the Fire Worship Sect was higher than them.
As the two Vice Sect Leaders of the Fire Worship Sect smiled at everyone, an elderly voice said in a drawling manner, “Why is it so lively here?”
An old man with a shabby appearance appeared out of thin air under everyone’s watchful eyes as soon as the voice sounded. The old man wore an old robe. He looked like a beggar. However, this old man who looked like a beggar made the proud Dong Yuan Jing bow in respect as soon as he appeared.
“Hall Master!”
“Hall Master!”
The other Vice Hall Masters from the Enforcement Hall also bowed respectfully.
It was obvious this old man was the Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall, Leng Yin, based on how respectful the Vice Hall Masters were acting.
“Greetings, Hall Master Leng!”
“Hall Master Leng!”
Following that, the Sanctum Leaders of the Four Symbols Sanctums and the Golden Flame Elders also paid their respect to the shabby-looking old man. Even both of the Vice Sect Leaders of the Fire Worship Sect greeted the old man with a smile.
Although the cultivation base of the Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall was also similar to the Vice Sect Leaders, they knew they would not be able to defeat him even if they joined forces. Hall Master Leng Yin was halfway to breaking through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage after all!
The Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall was about to respond to the Vice Hall Masters and elders, but he suddenly seemed to have noticed something as he turned to look at the horizon.
Zoom! Zoom! Zoom!
Three figures appeared almost instantly like a gust of wind. When they stopped moving, everyone could finally see them. An azure-clad old man, a purple-clad young man, and a red-clad beautiful woman stood there.
The old man had long flowing white hair and a white beard. He looked like an immortal.
The young man was handsome and possessed a graceful bearing. His presence seemed to be able to put others at ease.
The young woman had a seductive body and a pretty face, evoking desire from those who saw her. However, none of them dared to entertain lewd thoughts about her.
After everyone saw these three people, they turned solemn and became tense. It was as though these three people were some fearsome beasts!
Only Hall Master Leng Yin’s expression remained unchanged. He was the first to regain his senses. He instantly said with a smile, “Today must be my lucky day to be able to meet all three Guardians.”
Based on Leng Yin’s words, it was obvious these three people were the Three Great Guardians of the Fire Worship Sect whose positions were only second to the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect.
The Three Great Guardians of the Fire Worship Sect were also known as the Three Guardians of Wind, Fire, and Cloud. They were Zi Feng, Qing Huo, and Hong Yun.
Among the three Guardians, Guardian Zi Feng was the strongest. He was the handsome purple-clad young man with a graceful bearing. He had already broken through to the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage a long time ago. He was, naturally, an important figure in the Fire Worship Sect.
The second strongest Guardian was Guardian Qing Huo who was also Gan Ru Yan’s master. Guardian Qing Huo’s cultivation base was at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. He was ranked in the top twenty of the Supreme Saint Ranking.
The weakest among the three Guardians was Guardian Hong Yun. Although Guardian Hong Yun was a female, she was one of the few female powerhouses in the Dao Martial Saint Land who had broken through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
“Greetings Guardian Zi Feng, Guardian Qing Huo, and Guardian Hong Yun!”
Led by the two Vice Sect Leaders, everyone bowed and greeted the three Guardians respectfully.
The three Guardians nodded indifferently before they shifted their attention to the floating island nearby. That floating island was located at the highest level, looking down on the other floating islands like a king.
At this moment, a peerless and domineering aura rolled out in waves from that floating island…
Some of the weaker Golden Flame Elders present on the scene felt pressured when faced with this aura.
Suddenly, Guardian Qing Huo’s eyes lit up and cried out in surprise, “The Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage… It’s definitely the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!” His excitement was palpable.
“The Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage? Our great Sect Leader… has broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?!”
Apart from Leng Yin and the other two Guardians, Guardian Qing Huo’s words took the others by surprise. They did not expect their Sect Leader would break through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage at this time!
The Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage was the final and highest cultivation stage that humans and Saint Beasts could achieve in the Dao Martial Saint Land. This stage was also known as the Celestial Ascension Form.
If a cultivator at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, the Celestial Ascension Form, further improved, he or she would have to face the Celestial Ascension Tribulations. If they successfully passed the tribulations, they would be able to ascend to the Devata Realm and become a powerful Celestial!
“We’ll have a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in our Fire Worship Sect?”
After regaining their senses, the Vice Sect Leaders and the others were joyous.
One had to know that, prior to today, the Fire Worship Sect was the only sect without a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage among the three great sects in the Dao Martial Saint Land. This had always been a cause for concern among the Fire Worship Sect’s high-ranking officials.
Now that they discovered their Sect Leader had broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, they felt all their worries fading away. Their discovery was an effective medicine for their worries.
The domineering and peerless aura that came from the floating island seemed to be surging out endlessly.
Meanwhile, on the Saint Island beneath the clouds…
Chaos reigned among the elite disciples. They were all terrified as though the end was near. Although the disciples from the Four Symbols Sanctums had also felt the aura, they did not feel the pressure since they were located further away. Even then, they were equally as curious.
“Whose aura is this? It’s so domineering and peerless!”
“I don’t know.”
“It seems to have come from the Saint Land.”
Similar conversations could be heard everywhere in the Four Symbols Sanctums.
The elite disciples in the Saint Land and the disciples from the Four Symbols Sanctums were still in a commotion when a voice rang in the air…
“I am glad to inform everyone of this good news… Our Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect has successfully broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, the Celestial Ascension Form!”
The voice echoed in everyone’s ears in the Fire Worship Sect. The news was like a bolt of lightning. Everyone in the sect was shocked.
In the end, the group of Fire Worship Sect elders regained their senses first and said excitedly, “Sect Leader… He has broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?”
“Sect Leader has broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, the Celestial Ascension Form?”
The group of Fire Worship Sect disciples who finally regained their senses was excited as well.
Since the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect had gotten stronger, this meant the sect had gotten stronger as well. This was, naturally, a good thing for the disciples of the Fire Worship Sect.
About fifteen minutes later, the group of elite disciples in the Saint Land were relieved from the pressure as the peerless aura finally disappeared. Although they knew the aura belonged to the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect, it did not change the fact that the aura had pressured them.
Meanwhile, a large imposing figure appeared above the highest floating island in the clouds above the Saint Island. “Sect Leader!”
The people in the distance bowed respectfully as soon as this figure appeared.
