Chapter 738 - 527: Mahayana Loose Immortal
Since the Immortal Spirit Grand Thousand World manifested to the world, numerous Grand Thousand Worlds followed in succession...
The Celestial Mountain of Heaven Mang serves as the Grand Thousand nexus, intertwining and connecting many Grand Thousand Worlds.
Dharma Masters and top Great Powers can leverage the mountain’s force to freely traverse the heavens, seeking fortunes, discussing the Great Dao, or engaging in Divine Techniques competitions.
For a moment, the wind and clouds stirred across the Cultivation Realm... as if genuinely entering an Immortal Dao Great Era, as formidable talents arose, celestial prodigies emerged, epitomizing the flourishing of the Great Dao with myriad arts contending in splendor.
Heaven and Earth Sword Mountain.
Chen Sheng’s true self sat within the sword forest, his entire body condensed with sword aura yet unissued, like a deep abyss standing tall, with only his slightly closed eyes, his Divine Thought sinking deep within intent, dedicatedly practicing the "Profound Black Celestial Sword Scripture."
The shadow of the sword scripture revealed on the surface of the Dharma Seed, the seal script coiling like a dragon, with each rune surging with Innate Sword Light.
Simultaneously, his many incarnations roamed the Grand Thousand, smiling at the rotating stars, civilization’s ebb and flow.
Years flowed by, seemingly accelerated by an invisible hand, rushing forward, sweeping across seas and fields, transcending era changes.
One hundred thousand years.
Two hundred thousand years.
Three hundred thousand years.
...
Six hundred thousand years.
In the depths of the Immortal Spirit Grand Thousand World hides a Mid-Thousand World, named "Su Chen Realm."
Within the realm, the mountains and rivers are resplendent, the sun and moon shining, flora infused with spirit, life thriving, with inherent Heaven and Earth Laws, its Dao Rhyme uniquely formed.
At the core of the Su Xuan Realm, within the Purple Mansion Heavenly Palace.
Ancient Su Chen sat atop the Jade Platform of Creation, surrounded by faint clear aura.
He kept his eyes closed for a full hundred thousand years, his aura sometimes imperceptible, as humble as dust, other times vast as the heavens and earth...
On this day.
The Heaven and Earth Laws of Su Xuan Realm roared, sun and moon shone together, immortal melodies resonated, the landscape trembled.
A Great Dao of Creation manifested in the world, containing myriad miniature cosmos, hiding boundless Profound Skills of creation.
Absolute Perfection!
Not a single flaw!
Finally, Ancient Su Chen slowly opened his eyes, his heart clear without obstruction:
"The time has come!"
As the words fell, he lightly waved his finger, his sleeve like a reversed celestial river.
The flawless Great Dao of Creation abruptly transformed into a pale golden sword of creation.
"Slash!"
Upon utterance, Dao sound thundered, heaven and earth changed color.
With this sword, he slashed causality, bonds, severing his ties with Su Tian Realm, even the Immortal Spirit Realm; it’s the last step in ascending to Mahayana.
Creation Dharma Seed transformed into a sword, slashed through the air, without earthshattering sound, without world-destroying power.
Void undisturbed, yet strands of causal threads quietly severed!
Su Chen Realm’s heavens and earth issued a lament!
That sword of creation fled into the realm’s source, transforming into a spring of creation immortality, nurturing the incarnation.
Ancient Su Chen’s aura soared, formally stepping into the Mahayana Realm!
The Mahayana pressure silently spread, yet he remained indifferent, his sole thought at this moment:
"Eternal Immortal Realm!"
Ascending Mahayana should evoke the call of the Eternal Immortal Realm—the ultimate sanctuary for all Mahayana cultivators, the eternal shore.
Ancient Su Chen closed his eyes, his Divine Thought unfolding, spanning across the heavens’ chaos, following the Great Dao’s source, seeking the Eternal Immortal Realm’s location.
However, moments later, his brow slightly furrowed.
His will unfolded, traversing chaos, but there was not a trace of the Eternal Immortal Realm, no call, no guidance, as if the legendary eternal shore never existed.
Ancient Su Chen’s brow furrowed:
"Has something happened to the Eternal Immortal Realm?"
"Or perhaps the Celestial Mountain..."
As the thought arose, his figure vanished from Su Xuan Realm, instantly crossing the endless void, arriving at the Immortal Spirit Ancestor Land.
...
Below the Heaven Mang Celestial List.
A middle-aged cultivator quietly stood, being the newly arrived Void Refining Realm cultivator Li Xuan.
He hailed from Taiyi Realm, his eyes filled with reverence upon first arriving at Heaven Mang Celestial Mountain:
"Truly the mountain of creation, the name is well deserved!"
He raised his gaze at the celestial list, his eyes inching along, meticulously absorbing each imprint on the monument.
"Top of the overall list, Fifty-fourth peak, Guming Realm, Yellow Cypress Emperor!"
"Second on the overall list, Fifty-fourth peak, Immortal Spirit Realm, Su Chen Daoist Monarch!"
"Third on the overall list, Fifty-fourth peak, Long Sky Realm, Desolate Ascendant!"
Li Xuan mused:
"Desolate Ascendant, Yellow Cypress Emperor, and Su Chen Daoist Monarch are dubbed the ’Three Absolutes of the Celestial List,’ reportedly all are at the pinnacle of Daoist Monarch..."
His gaze continued downward,
"Fourth on the overall list, Fifty-third peak, Nether Realm, Ghost Evolution Daoist Monarch!"
"Fifth on the overall list, Fifty-third peak, Danxia Realm, Red Flame Daoist Monarch!"
"..."
Li Xuan browsed each, his gaze yearning for the top Great Powers.
Until his gaze settled on eighth, Li Xuan slightly paused:
"Eighth on the overall list, Fifty-second peak, Taiyi Realm, Sect Master Tian Yu!"
"My Taiyi Realm is the origin place of Celestial Mountain!"
"Unexpectedly... now in my realm, Sect Master Tian Yu ranks only fifteen..."
"Though slightly better than Spirit Realm, among the top ten, there are no cultivators from Spirit Realm..."
He pondered silently.
Suddenly, a change occurred!
The previously silent and floating Heaven Mang Celestial List trembled violently, a mark from the Fifty-fourth peak transformed into a golden light, rushing skyward!
Within the mountain, all cultivators were startled by this aura.
"Su Chen Daoist Monarch! That’s Su Chen Daoist Monarch’s mark!"
"Indeed, Su Chen Daoist Monarch! He has indeed made a move!"
"Having passed fifty-five peaks, moving towards fifty-six peak!"
"Fifty-seventh peak... fifty-eighth peak..."
"Mahayana!"
"Absolutely a Mahayana realm!"
Within Heaven and Earth Sword Mountain, cultivators displayed varied expressions, their eyes carried a hint of solemnity and yearning.
"Su Chen proceeds first, but it’s of no consequence."
