Chapter 3597 The First Person to Break Through
"I'm afraid that even in the next ten million years, the sect will hardly ever be as prosperous as it is now!"
Inside the Heavenly Sect, Gu Bai looked at the scene before him with a sigh.
It's not far off that it's said that all races came to pay homage.
Looking across the heavens.
No other force could possibly attract the combined might of powerful figures from various races like the Heavenly Sect.
It is even less likely that any force would lift all restrictions and allow other forces to set foot on the territory.
after all.
Once you do that.
No one can be sure whether some forces will take advantage of the situation.
If something like that were to happen, there was a high possibility of annihilation.
but--
Tianzong is not afraid.
Shen Changqing's existence is the strongest restriction of the Heavenly Sect.
As long as the other party is still around, even if the Heavenly Sect does not set up any restrictive formations, no cultivator will dare to cause trouble.
not to mention.
Today, the Heavenly Sect is filled with powerful figures.
Even without Shen Changqing, the return of powerful figures like Gu Bai who have ascended to the upper realms would be enough to intimidate all sides.
However, in terms of prestige, they naturally cannot be compared with the former.
……
Ask the Mountain.
On the Cliff of Enlightenment.
Many powerful figures have gathered here at this moment.
Many cultivators discovered that the Dao Asking Mountain, which did not seem very large, could accommodate millions of cultivators.
and--
As the time goes.
More and more monks arrived.
But the Asking Mountain is like an abyss that can never be filled. No matter how many cultivators enter this place, they do not feel crowded at all.
Such methods.
Soon, some celestial kings noticed something amiss.
"Mount Wendao is now a world unto itself, but its use of spatial power has reached a level that is beyond the comprehension of gods and ghosts. Even with careful observation, it is difficult to find any trace of spatial fluctuations."
Of all the myriad races in the heavens, perhaps only that Heavenly Ancestor could have accomplished such a feat!
A divine king looked at the scene before him and a look of emotion appeared on his face.
A mustard seed can contain Mount Sumeru!
This method is nothing special to other cultivators.
Let alone the Celestial King.
Even powerful beings, and even cultivators below the level of powerful beings, can do it easily.
but--
Even though both are examples of containing Mount Sumeru within a mustard seed, there are significant differences between them.
If too many powerful individuals were to enter, the Daoist energy emanating from them would be enough to cause a space to collapse.
And then.
Any spatial technique of this kind can detect fluctuations of Daoist charm, and there are traces to follow.
But now, when they inquired about the Dao in the mountains, they could not detect any trace of Daoist principles; it seemed as if the space before them was naturally formed.
If it weren't for the discovery by a powerful figure that the increasing number of cultivators entering the Asking Mountain without causing any overcrowding, no one would have noticed the unusual nature of this space.
It can be said.
This level of control over space is astonishing.
Even if other immortal kings devoted their entire lives to it, they would find it difficult to achieve even one ten-thousandth of that.
at this time.
A majestic aura descended from the sky, and then a figure in a green robe appeared on the Enlightenment Cliff.
The moment the other party appeared, all the noise on the vast Wendao Mountain came to an abrupt halt.
Almost all the cultivators had an epiphany the moment they saw Shen Changqing, and then they bowed respectfully and shouted in unison.
"Greetings, Immortal Emperor Changqing!"
……
On the Cliff of Enlightenment.
Shen Changqing sat cross-legged, with boundless Daoist power condensing into a purple auspicious cloud beneath him, lifting his body up. An aura of supreme Dao permeated the sky, and the invisible pressure made all the cultivators solemn.
"This sermon has been going on for a thousand years. How much you can comprehend depends entirely on your own destiny—"
Shen Changqing didn't waste any time. After saying a few simple words, he began his sermon.
The Dao he speaks of originates from the Earth Immortals, which is also the realm of the Immortal Golden Body among all the heavens.
In the upper realm, Earth Immortals are the starting point; there is no need to explain the paths below Earth Immortals.
What's more.
Nowadays, the number of cultivators who come to Ask the Dao Mountain to listen to the Dao varies, but none of them are weak. Daoists below the Earth Immortal level are of no use.
As Shen Changqing began to speak, the heavens and earth trembled, and countless great rivers of Dao stretched across the sky, with boundless Dao power manifesting numerous strange phenomena.
Simultaneously.
A massive amount of celestial energy gathered and transformed into golden lotus flowers that drifted down.
All the cultivators are now focused and listening attentively to the teachings on the Great Dao.
Although it is only the path of the Earth Immortal now, for many cultivators, and even Immortal Kings, hearing such profound truths of the Great Dao again brings a kind of inexplicable enlightenment.
This feeling.
Just like the path I've walked before, there are still some flaws and imperfections.
Now, by listening to Shen Changqing's sermon, I was able to discover these flaws and gradually make amends.
"This is the path of the Earth Immortal!"
At the very front of the many seats on the Enlightenment Cliff, Dongfang Zhao sat cross-legged, his entire mind focused on those profound mantras.
Now that his foundation as a terrestrial immortal has been repaired, there have been some subtle changes in his aura.
Noticing the changes in himself, Dongfang Zhao was secretly alarmed.
He originally thought that he had gradually reached the level of a half-step ancient immortal, and that his previous understanding of the Dao should have been flawless.
But now, after hearing Shen Changqing's words about the Great Dao of Earthly Immortals and verifying it against himself, Dongfang Zhao suddenly realized that his original path had many flaws.
Although these flaws are minor, they are still not perfect.
As the flaws in the Earth Immortal Path were repaired, Dongfang Zhao vaguely sensed that the bottleneck that had previously trapped him in the Ancient Immortal realm seemed to have begun to waver.
However, this slight wavering is barely perceptible, and there is still a long way to go before these barriers can be truly broken down.
But nevertheless.
Dongfang Zhao was not in a hurry, but continued to calm his mind and listen to the teachings on the Great Dao.
……
Time passed little by little.
With a large amount of immortal energy gathering, the heavenly tribulation almost never stopped, and every now and then a cultivator would break through to a higher realm, triggering the heavenly tribulation to descend.
Although the power of this heavenly tribulation seemed terrifying, it was suppressed to a very small range under the current coverage of Shen Changqing's Daoist aura and divine sense.
This way.
Apart from those undergoing tribulation, other cultivators were almost unaffected.
even.
Unless one is a cultivator undergoing tribulation, no one can detect any clues about the heavenly tribulation.
These methods of isolating the aura of the heavenly tribulation, or even completely shielding it from its power, filled other tribulation seekers with awe.
Well known.
The heavenly tribulation is terrifying.
Even beings at the Immortal King level are not qualified to interfere with the Heavenly Tribulation.
Any cultivator who attempts to interfere with the Heavenly Tribulation will incur the wrath of Heaven and be punished by Heaven.
and so--
Whenever a heavenly tribulation occurs, other cultivators keep their distance, fearing that they might be affected.
However, in front of this Evergreen Immortal Emperor, such heavenly tribulation power seemed to be non-existent, and he could easily block it, otherwise the tribulation would not have affected other cultivators in the slightest.
With numerous cultivators breaking through to higher levels, the amount of immortal energy consumed by each breath on Mount Wendao has reached an astonishing level.
however.
Currently, there is a mid-grade immortal vein under the Heavenly Sect.
The immortal energy nurtured by such a celestial vein is immense. Even if the number of cultivators on the Dao Asking Mountain were ten or a hundred times greater, it would still be difficult to deplete the immortal energy of the Heavenly Sect.
therefore.
Such a consumption of immortal energy is not worth mentioning.
With sufficient nourishment from the immortal energy, the number of cultivators breaking through to higher levels increased over time.
suddenly.
Dongfang Zhao, who was in seclusion, suddenly opened his eyes. A strong sense of threat descended upon him, almost causing him to feel a nameless fear.
This emotion arose spontaneously from the bottom of my heart and was beyond my control.
that moment.
Dongfang Zhao looked up at the sky and saw thick tribulation clouds gathering there, with an aura that seemed capable of destroying the ancient continent.
"Ancient Immortal Tribulation!"
The moment he saw the Heavenly Tribulation, a sudden realization dawned on Dongfang Zhao's mind.
This.
It is his own ancient immortal tribulation.
After listening to the Dao for hundreds of years, he finally took that final half-step on the basis of being a half-step ancient immortal, which led to the calamity clouds descending upon the world.
now.
The Ancient Immortal Tribulation is brewing.
Such a powerful aura made Dongfang Zhao dare not undergo tribulation within the Heavenly Sect. He glanced at Shen Changqing, solemnly bowed, and then flew into the starry sky to undergo tribulation.
See this.
Shen Changqing did not stop him.
He was able to suppress the power of ordinary heavenly tribulations, preventing them from spreading even slightly.
But the Ancient Immortal Tribulation is different.
In the vast universe, this kind of heavenly tribulation is considered the most severe tribulation, and it is also the last heavenly tribulation that all cultivators face before ascension.
At this level of tribulation, Shen Changqing naturally couldn't possibly conceal all his power.
There are too many cultivators on the Dao Asking Mountain now. Given the terrifying power of the Ancient Immortal Tribulation, even a slight leak of its aura would be enough to affect other cultivators.
For Dongfang Zhao to undergo tribulation in the starry sky is the best course of action.
Not long after Dongfang Zhao left, a terrifying aura emanated from the depths of the starry sky, signaling the imminent arrival of the long-brewing Ancient Immortal Tribulation.
at the same time.
Shen Changqing also dispersed a wisp of his divine sense and looked towards the starry sky.
Suddenly, the heavenly tribulation descended, its terrifying power tearing through layers of void, determined to blast Dongfang Zhao to death on the spot.
The latter, gazing at the descending calamity, showed no fear whatsoever. His physical body and blood energy were as powerful as an abyss, and he actually fought against it with his own flesh and blood.
……
"I never expected that Dongfang Zhao would be the first to break through—"
Shen Changqing pondered to himself.
He originally thought that Gu Chen would be the first to break through.
After all, the other party has the most profound accumulation at the Immortal King level. As a half-step Ancient Immortal, in terms of foundation, few cultivators in the heavens can compare with him.
But in fact.
Although Gu Chen's aura was ethereal, he never actually took that final half-step.
On the contrary, Dongfang Zhao, who had not been in the half-step ancient immortal realm for very long and whose foundation was not the most solid, was the first to break through this barrier.
This also illustrates this point.
Breakthroughs in the Ancient Immortal Realm are not simply a matter of accumulating knowledge and experience; they also require the right opportunity.
If one can see through the final layer of mist, then one can directly attain enlightenment and break through; otherwise, it would not be strange if millions of years were wasted.
As Shen Changqing's thoughts settled, Dongfang Zhao shattered several more heavenly tribulations, his powerful aura raging across the starry sky.
