This was the gift of the heavens and earth after successfully surviving the tribulation!
Its purity and vastness far surpassed that of the Creation Light Rain from before.
Ling Xi, Xiao Ruobai, and Fang Hanyu sat cross-legged, instinctively circulating their cultivation arts as they greedily absorbed it.
Their withered meridians, shattered bodies, and depleted soul power rapidly healed and transformed under the nourishment of that immense vitality, at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Their auras seemed to be reborn from the cocoon and began to soar wildly. A vast pressure unique to the Sacred Realm, transcending all mortals, slowly spread through the air.
They had succeeded!
The three of them had crossed the World-Destroying Saint Tribulation together—and prevailed!
The deathly silence beneath the mountain was instantly replaced by an uproar like collapsing mountains and roaring seas.
“They made it?! They really succeeded!”
“Three Forbidden Saint Tribulations overlapping each other—and they actually endured them!”
“Three Saints!”
Inside the Hall of Enlightened Mind, the assembled elders were even more agitated, barely able to contain themselves.
“Good! Good! Good!”
Perfected Xuanji clapped his hands and laughed heartily, repeating the word three times. His face was flushed with excitement, and even his long beard trembled.
“Unprecedented through the ages! Unprecedented! Three people crossing the Heavenly Punishment and becoming Saints together!”
In the deepest reaches of Dao-Tibet Academy!
As Master Qingxu watched Xiao Ruobai and the other two successfully survive the tribulation, the heart hanging in his chest finally relaxed.
He turned toward the stone bench beside him and spoke in an excited, ringing voice, “Master! Did you see that? They did it! They—”
His voice abruptly stopped.
The smile on Master Qingxu’s face froze.
The stone bench beside him, where Xing Tian'ao had been sitting moments ago, was now completely empty. Only the tea remained faintly warm, its lingering fragrance drifting through the air.
Xing Tian'ao had quietly departed at some unknown point, leaving behind not the slightest trace.
Beyond Dao Origin Mountain, above the flowing clouds.
Xing Tian'ao’s figure silently appeared behind Gu Changge’s side. He bowed his head slightly, and lingering shock remained in his imperial eyes.
“Congratulations, Honored Master.”
His voice was deep and solemn, filled with sincere respect.
“Your three disciples possess foundations of extraordinary depth and wills of remarkable strength—rare throughout history. After surviving this tribulation, the path to the Emperor Realm is within their reach.”
He had seen it clearly. The three becoming Saints was by no means comparable to ordinary Saints. The depth of their foundations and the magnificence of their presence had already far surpassed those of the other prodigies.
Gu Changge’s gaze remained calmly fixed on the three figures atop the summit as he watched them devour the heavenly dew and stabilize their realms, as though he were merely observing the ordinary rise and setting of the sun and moon.
“The path has only just begun,” he said indifferently.
Xing Tian'ao deeply agreed.
Saints were merely the starting point of truly embarking upon the great path.
He was just about to speak when he saw Gu Changge suddenly raise his eyes. His gaze seemed to pass beyond Dao Origin Mountain, beyond the firmament of the Profound Yellow Realm, and toward the depths of the endless chaotic void.
The next moment, a trace of coldness crossed Gu Changge’s face—cold enough to make even an Emperor like Xing Tian'ao’s heart tremble slightly.
“Someone is coming.” Gu Changge’s voice was calm, yet it seemed to carry the chill of a mountain spring.
Xing Tian'ao was startled. He instinctively followed Gu Changge’s gaze, but all he saw was blue sky and drifting clouds.
Then, in the next instant, he suddenly realized what Gu Changge meant, and his pupils contracted sharply.
Could Honored Master be referring to something beyond the world?!
Could it be those beings?!
Had they discovered the anomaly in the Profound Yellow Realm and come knocking?!
The secret of the Profound Yellow Realm’s origin being drained over countless ages, the crisis that Honored Master had silently resolved not long ago—
And the terrifying level beyond the Emperor Realm that Honored Master had mentioned, the level represented by the word “Immortal”!
The thought exploded in his mind like thunder.
At that moment, his hatred erupted with overwhelming force, scorching his soul and imperial body!
They were the ones who had stolen the origin of the Profound Yellow Great World, severing the path to the Emperor Realm and leaving countless astonishing prodigies unable to advance, forced to spend their lives with their ambitions unfulfilled.
They were the ones who had left an Emperor puppet at the world barrier all those years ago, causing him to suffer a devastating injury when he had been closest to reaching the summit.
That trace of Immortal power had tormented him for thousands of years. Even the power of the Emperor Tribulation had been unable to eradicate it.
If Honored Master had not saved him, both his body and soul would have been destroyed.
This had also given him the most direct understanding of the might of Immortals.
Although he possessed an almost blind faith in Gu Changge’s strength, the word “Immortal” represented an absolute suppression in terms of the level of life for every living being in the Profound Yellow Realm!
An uncontrollable worry instantly seized Xing Tian'ao’s mind.
“Honored Master, has someone from the Immortal Realm arrived?”
Gu Changge withdrew his gaze from beyond the heavens and glanced at Xing Tian'ao, taking in the shock and worry in his eyes. He did not offer any further explanation, merely nodding faintly.
“Yes.”
That single word confirmed the worst possibility.
Gu Changge glanced toward the summit. The auras of his three disciples there had gradually stabilized, and the pressure of the Sacred Realm was slowly receding. Clearly, they had already gained an initial foothold in their new realms.
Then he gave his sleeve a light sweep.
“Come with me.”
Before his voice had even faded, the surrounding space rippled slightly. The figures of the two men had already vanished soundlessly from above the flowing clouds, without attracting the attention of anyone below.
At the summit of Dao Origin Mountain, atop the peak of the Heavenly Stairway, the hazy sacred radiance enveloping the area slowly withdrew as well.
Xiao Ruobai was the first to open his eyes. Divine light shone brilliantly within them before slowly withdrawing, leaving behind a profound calm.
He gently clenched his fist and felt the entirely new power surging through his body, vast as a galaxy.
It was a power completely different from that of the Heavenly Human Realm—a power that granted him a clearer perception and control over the laws of heaven and earth.
“So this is the power of the Sacred Realm.”
He murmured to himself. His voice was steady, yet it contained an indescribable confidence.
Beside him, Fang Hanyu also opened his eyes. Deep within them, a newly born sword intent—purer and more austere than before—flashed briefly, as though it could pierce the void.
The aura around him was cold and condensed, like an unrivaled divine blade hidden within its sheath.
Only Ling Xi frowned slightly after carefully sensing every change within her body, a trace of helplessness flickering through her eyes.
She had just absorbed the tribulation and the gift of heaven and earth, and, in addition, her previous life had been that of an Emperor’s soul.
Her comprehension of the Sacred Realm had long since become perfectly clear. At this moment, her cultivation had already risen unnoticed to the peak of the Saint Realm.
“I swallowed a little too much. The energy is sufficient, and so is the comprehension, but this newly formed Saint body still needs to be tempered carefully. My foundation must be made as solid as possible.”
She secretly warned herself and suppressed the faint sense of instability brought about by her rapidly rising cultivation. Stabilizing her foundation would be her foremost task from now on.
“Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Sister! Congratulations!”
A voice filled with excitement and joy rang out. Fatty Wang and Mo Yu flew forward almost simultaneously.
Both their faces were lit with genuine, delighted smiles. Fatty Wang was even rubbing his hands together, his eyes shining as though he were happier about their breakthrough than if he had broken through himself.
“Hahaha! Good! Good! Good!”
A hearty, carefree laugh approached from afar as Perfected Xuanji arrived atop auspicious clouds.
Behind him were several core elders with profound auras and faces filled with relief and astonishment. Three or four young figures also stood quietly behind them.
These people possessed entirely different temperaments. Some were as deep and still as an abyss, while others were as sharp as swords. Though they had all restrained their auras and stood silently behind the elders, the Dao rhythms unintentionally revealed by them, along with the faint pressure they exuded, made them impossible to ignore.
They did not speak. They merely fixed calm gazes upon Ling Xi and the others, carefully sizing them up. Their eyes held a difficult-to-describe solemnity, along with a faint, burning intensity.
Xiao Ruobai’s gaze shifted slightly as he exchanged a glance with Ling Xi.
These few were probably the prodigies personally nurtured by Daozang Academy.
As expected, this ancient academy’s foundations were unfathomably deep.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
