The sects of the Immortal World do not allow everyone to ascend, and all the high-ranking members of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, including Li Cheng, were puzzled by this.
Baili Changkong let out a sigh and said, “This is a helpless measure. Over the past twenty thousand years, the Immortal Court has been scheming to take a treasure that protects our sect, secretly harming countless disciples and forcing us to close our gates for recuperation and regeneration.”
“To avoid implicating the Heavenly Mechanism Sect in the Kunlun Realm, we had no choice but to ask for Grand Venerable Bai Jie’s intervention, cutting off the disciples’ path to ascension.”
Baih Changkong’s explanation was concise, but what the Heavenly Mechanism Sect in the Immortal World had experienced was surely not that simple.
Li Cheng, curious, asked, “What treasure is it that the Immortal Court covets so much?”
Baili Changkong shook his head slightly. “It’s something an Ancestor Master obtained twenty thousand years ago. I’m not too clear on the specifics, but I know that the lord of the Immortal Court has always been plotting to acquire it and hasn’t given up even now.”
Li Cheng frowned, “Does that mean that the sects in the Immortal World are still in deep trouble?”
Baili Changkong remained silent, then nodded, “My main purpose for descending to the Lower World this time was to assess the situation in the Kunlun Realm. If possible, the sect of the Immortal World will move back here!”
The sect moving to the Kunlun Realm?
Li Cheng knew that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was a grand sect in the Immortal World. If they were to relocate, the Immortal Court would definitely interfere.
And even if the move back was successful, who could guarantee that the Immortal Court would not reach out to the Kunlun Realm?
Moreover, the Kunlun Realm itself was recovering, with many ancient ruins resurfacing. It was not lacking in beings at the level of Immortal Emperors, and these beings might inevitably target large sects and powers.
Therefore, if they moved back, the challenges they would face could be even greater than those in the Immortal World.
Of course, opportunities would also be plentiful, since many ancient ruins could be allied with or brought over to their side.
“Is this the idea of the Ancestor Master? He must have used the Heaven Secret Technique for his predictions, right?” Li Cheng asked.
Baili Changkong nodded slightly, his expression somewhat somber, “Although Ancestor Master Tianji Zi is powerful in the Heaven Secret Technique, divining the future always leads to backlash. Over the years, his lifespan has been greatly reduced, and he doesn’t have much time left.”
“So the Ancestor Master is planning to secure a future for the sect before his lifespan is exhausted?” Li Cheng spoke up, his expression also becoming grave. Our Ancestor Master Tianji Zi was a legendary figure, worshipped and idolized by every disciple of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.
Li Cheng was no exception, but now he was faced with the harrowing news that the Ancestor Master’s lifespan was dwindling, which was hard for Li Cheng to accept.
Baili Changkong nodded, forcing a smile, “We must be strong ourselves. The Ancestor Master has shielded the sect from storms for too long; we cannot trouble him any longer.”
Alright, I mustn’t delay any further. I need to rush to the Southern Domain, and you should return soon as well,” Baili Changkong changed the subject. ’ Li Cheng pointed towards the spatial wormhole, “The current Sect Master is busy establishing a stronghold outside the spatial wormhole. Baili Ancestor Master might like his approach.”
After Baih Changkong departed, Li Cheng composed himself and continued on towards the central region of the Central Continent.
The Heavenly Mechanism Sect of the Immortal World planning to move back to the Kunlun Realm was undoubtedly significant news. What dire straits must the Ancestor Master be in to make such a decision?
“After a separation of a hundred thousand years, who would have thought that Tianji Zi’s lifespan would be so short, alas!” The Immortal Emperor Tianyuan sighed.
Li Cheng knew that most of the Ancestor Master’s lifespan had been cut short due to probing into the mysteries of heaven. In such cases, Immortal Pills and Immortal Elixirs were hardly enough to compensate; only increased cultivation could help.
“Predecessor, do you know what level of cultivation the Ancestor Master has reached?” Li Cheng inquired.
“When I descended to the Lower World a hundred thousand years ago, he was already at the peak of Immortal Emperor. By now, he must have reached Perfect Immortal Emperor,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan pondered.
Understanding dawned on Li Cheng; at that stage, one could only grow stronger by continuously comprehending Laws, or by condensing rules into Laws.
But lifespan would not increase.
Unless one became a God.
But to become a god, one needs to master a certain Law to the extent of 129,600 paths, which is far from easy. Moreover, it is said that the current world is flawed, and it is impossible to comprehend so many Laws.
“Those Immortal Emperors with little time left in the past, many rushed to the Kunlun Realm, seeking ancient battlefields, attempting to find the opportunity to ascend to godhood from these ancient battlefields. Now that we know the ancient battlefield is located in the Land of Chaos, why not let your Ancestor Master try his luck?” Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan said.
Li Cheng shook his head and sighed quietly. So many Immortal Emperors sought the ancient battlefield, but how many found it?
Even those who did find it all disappeared without a trace, so the ancient battlefield might not necessarily hold the key to becoming a god.
On the other hand, the half of the Fire Mysterious Realm he held, which was the result of refining half of a divine world, would likely offer a greater opportunity if he found the other half.
“According to Ancestor Master Baili, the Sect Master will sooner or later bring the Heavenly Mechanism Sect here. We’ll see when the time comes!”
The urgent task is to continue traveling north. Emperor Qing, half of the divine world, and even the Space-Time Divine Ancestor’s inheritance might all possibly be located in the Divine Palace Region,” Li Cheng said.
Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan smiled, “Then why don’t you directly use the Cross-domain Teleportation Array to rush to the Divine Palace Region? Every prefecture in the Central Continent has one.”
Li Cheng traveled using the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle, naturally to see if he could meet suitable disciples along the way.
The more disciples, the quicker his own power would improve.
“System, this way of finding disciples is not practical. Can’t you detect where suitable ones might be? It would be much more convenient if I could go directly there,” Li Cheng thought to himself.
[Host’s strength is insufficient; cannot activate detection function.]
“Hm?”
Li Cheng’s eyes brightened, so the system did have this function, but it was just that his cultivation was not enough to activate it.
“At what level of strength can I activate the detection function?” Li Cheng asked.
[Immortal Monarch!]
Immortal Monarch, huh?
Right now, he had just entered the Daluo Golden Immortal stage. The next stage, Immortal Monarch Realm, seemed far away, but let’s not forget—he had two Immortal King’s Immortal Infants in hand!
Refining them would be enough to step into the Immortal Monarch Realm!
Without another word, Li Cheng returned to the Immortal Palace and began refining the Immortal Infants.
This Immortal Palace allowed two years to pass inside while only a day went by in the outside world, undoubtedly making it an excellent place to refine Immortal Stones and Immortal Infants.
Three months passed, and the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle was somewhat frustrated. It had been rushing for three months, only knowing to head north, without a clear purpose.
The Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle began to suspect whether it had somehow angered Li Cheng, causing Li Cheng to deliberately torment it in this manner.
It must be the case. Otherwise, why not utilize the Cross-domain Teleportation Array and instead make it rush relentlessly?
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Li Cheng appeared and casually grasped the Immortal Palace, “Alright, go inside and cultivate!”
“Oh?” The Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle’s eyes lit up. Had its master finally tired of tormenting it?
Without any hesitation, the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle dove into the Immortal Palace. This day was one it had waited for a long time!
Li Cheng pocketed the Immortal Palace and looked around. Two hundred years inside the palace equated to three months outside; he had no idea how far the Divine Turtle had traveled.
But it didn’t matter. At this moment, his cultivation had reached the early stage of the Immortal Monarch Realm, and he could now use the system’s detection function!
“System, quickly detect where there are suitable disciples!” Li Cheng urged impatiently.
