Chapter 239: Taking a Step Forward

“This!”

“Our Lord truly possesses such Immortal power!”

“That’s amazing!”

It wasn’t just the ordinary Disciples who were astonished; even Li Huaizhen was overwhelmed with complex emotions, unable to express his excitement in words.

Yet, his current realm has yet to reach the sixth stage of Immortality, thus he was unable to ascend, leaving him somewhat disheartened.

Chen Ansheng, after one glance at Li Huaizhen, understood his thoughts.

“Huaizhen, follow me.”

Chen Ansheng then summoned Li Huaizhen to another hall.

“Master, what do you require of me?”

Li Huaizhen asked perplexedly.

“Do you also wish to ascend?” Chen Ansheng spoke directly.

“To Master, I indeed long to ascend sooner, to catch a glimpse of the Immortal Realm’s scenery,” Li Huaizhen truthfully admitted.

“Good,” Chen Ansheng nodded, “With your dual-birth holy body and transformed Immortal body, if there are sufficient and appropriate resources, reaching the sixth Immortal realm would be an easy task.”

Li Huaizhen smiled bitterly. “Master overpraises me. After decades of arduous cultivation, I have increasingly realized how difficult it is to ascend in realms. To reach the sixth Immortal realm, I suspect I might need at least a few more decades. Alas.”

Chen Ansheng said indifferently, “Your cultivation speed has already surpassed all others. Why belittle yourself? Today, I shall assist you to ascend to the sixth Immortal realm within three days.”

Upon hearing this, Li Huaizhen felt like he was struck by lightning, standing there stunned.

To ascend to the sixth Immortal realm within three days?

How could this be possible!

Even if Master possessed immense Immortal power, he couldn’t just forcefully raise one’s cultivation realm, right?

But, since Master has spoken it, how dare I question him!

Seeing Li Huaizhen’s dumbfounded state, Chen Ansheng didn’t explain further but released the Alien World with just a thought.

The moment the Alien World unfurled, Li Huaizhen trembled violently. It felt as though he were like a fish returned to water or a dragon returned to the sea, immensely comfortable and invigorated.

Moreover, he felt his Immortal body transforming, Immortal power infinitely expanding, and his entire body brimming with invincible strength!

Sensing Li Huaizhen’s transformation, even Chen Ansheng, who had anticipated it, couldn’t help but be slightly amazed.

Little Huaizhen, you truly are fortunate to have inherited the legacy of that Alien Immortal Emperor, cultivating a highly special demonic body.

This kind of demonic body is naturally powerful within the Alien World and can cultivate normally under the Immortal Path’s rules.

This is somewhat similar to being both a legalist and a martial artist, two-in-one.

Such an individual may be one of a kind throughout history.

Boom!

With the Alien World’s tremor, an endless amount of alien rules surged due to Li Huaizhen’s aura.

Even the Alien Immortal soul sleeping within the great halberd woke up from the terrifyingly sudden rise in energy.

“Master, I sense the aura of an Emperor’s body!”

The Alien Immortal soul quickly communicated with Chen Ansheng.

“No need to panic. It’s my disciple who inherited the legacy of this great halberd’s original owner.”

“I see!” The Alien Immortal soul calmed down slightly. “Master, your disciple has an immeasurable future. I once obtained a divine technique that can only be cultivated by someone with an Emperor body. I shall pass it to you now, and whether or not to impart it to him is entirely up to Master.”

“Good.”

Subsequently, the Alien Immortal soul transmitted a peculiar technique to Chen Ansheng.

As for when to pass it on to Li Huaizhen, Chen Ansheng would have to carefully consider.

Not for any other reason, if this young man’s strength surpasses mine too quickly, wouldn’t that be embarrassing?

“Master, what exactly is happening to me?”

At this moment, Li Huaizhen was still extremely shocked.

His full body was covered in scales, his back extending a pair of black bone wings, his aura deep as a abyss, vast and profound, resembling a divine being.

“No need to panic. Your Immortal body has already undergone a transformation. Within my world, it has merely returned to its original form,” Chen Ansheng explained.

“I see.” Li Huaizhen calmed down somewhat and asked, “Master, my current strength seems to far exceed even the sixth Immortal level. Can I ascend?”

“Here and there, the rules are different. You still cannot ascend,” Chen Ansheng replied.

Chen Ansheng only wanted to verify Li Huaizhen’s strength and potential within the Alien World. It has nothing to do with the strength or cultivation realm under the Immortal Path’s rules.

After speaking, Chen Ansheng retracted the Alien World, and soon, Li Huaizhen returned to normal.

He then opened his Spiritual Realm, sending Li Huaizhen into it.

“How has the world changed yet again?”

Li Huaizhen was astonished. He had never imagined how powerful his Master was.

“Chuckles.”

Chen Ansheng and Li Huaizhen stood atop a celestial mountain.

Chen Ansheng then waved his hand, and black crystal spirit herbs, pill dan, and spiritual fruits appeared before him.

“These resources are for you. Cultivate diligently here. Ensure that you reach the Immortal level within five years.”

Chen Ansheng’s Spiritual Realm, with some rules bestowed by Elder Ji, enhanced its resistance against external pressure, allowing it to sustain for some time.

It’s fine to let him cultivate for a few days here temporarily.

Li Huaizhen, feeling the incredibly pure Immortal energy from the abundance of resources, was shocked beyond words.

With such rich resources, Li Huaizhen was full of confidence to break through within a few years.

“Thank you for your generosity, Master!”

Li Huaizhen’s gratitude was evident, kneeling on the ground, shedding tears, and bowing three times.

“Though we’re officially master and servant, emotionally, we’re like teacher and disciple. There’s no need for such formality. Rise and focus on cultivation.”

Chen Ansheng’s words moved Li Huaizhen again.

Subsequently, he sat down on the spot and immersed himself in cultivation.

…

Three days later, above the True Immortal Sect, layers upon layers of tribulation clouds gathered.

The entire Yunlong World was shrouded under a terrifying shadow.

The various cultivation families and mountain sects were all in a panic, believing that Yunlong World had transgressed some taboo, summoning the end-of-the-world divine punishment.

Chen Ansheng, however, returned to the hidden island, preparing to personally welcome the first batch of disciples ascending.

Before that, Chen Ansheng took out several invaluable Immortal Palace talismans to construct a few pavilions in the place most abundant with Immortal energy.

Subsequently, he activated the Ascension Pool, initiating thunder tribulation purification and welcoming the disciples.

After several hours.

The first batch of disciples who withstood the thunder tribulation successfully ascended.

Of course, the heavenly tribulation wasn’t that easy to endure. Among this group of disciples, half were injured, having their Immortal bones struck by the thunder tribulation, some even gravely injured, nearly dying.

Amidst clouds and mist, with Immortal energy flowing.

These disciples were like infants newly arrived in the world greedily sucking up the essence of the Immortal Realm’s energy, full of curiosity about everything.

“Do not create a commotion. Follow the sect’s laws and regulations from the lower realms. Once your Sect Master Li ascends, I shall arrange your cultivation accordingly.”

Just as all the disciples were excited like monkeys, Chen Ansheng’s Immortal body appeared before them.

“It’s the Lord!”

“Disciples, pay respect to the Lord!”

Seeing Chen Ansheng’s appeared form, the disciples reverently bowed, showing immense respect and devotion.

Chen Ansheng slowly nodded, feeling quite pleased in his heart. Now he had territory and followers; the first step toward becoming king had been taken.
