Chapter 621: Chapter 426: Kill!
In the sky, celestial music gradually stopped.
However, the unusual phenomenon of Xu Yang’s ascension did not cease.
At this moment, the three mountains and five peaks of the Da Xia were trembling. Divine lights from the mountains shot into the sky, as if the mountains had a spirit and were congratulating Xu Yang on his ascension!
Today was Lunar September 16th.
The moon was very bright.
As the saying goes, when the moon is bright, the stars are few…
...
Under normal circumstances, when the moon is shining brightly, not many stars can be seen in the sky.
However, at this moment, the stars filled the sky, each with intertwined starlight falling upon the world, and the round moon also radiated a brilliant glow!
“Three mountains, five peaks, a sky full of stars…”
Grandmaster Chengming looked up at the sky, murmuring softly, with a flash of immortal light in his eyes.
Wang Hou at his side asked, “Senior Chengming, how do the signs of Xu Yang’s ascension compare to yours?”
The old Daoist glanced back at Wang Hou.
Then he shook his head and said, “I ascended at the end of the Qing Dynasty when the spiritual aura in the world was depleted, and the Dao was silent, there were no unusual phenomena.”
“???”
Wang Hou was stunned and said, “That’s impossible… At that time, the spiritual aura in the world was depleted, the Dao was silent, it was impossible to cultivate, let alone achieve ascension.”
Grandmaster Chengming said, “Indeed, it was impossible to cultivate anywhere else, but in Zongsheng Palace, one could. However, during that time, the spiritual essence was weak, my realm had already reached the level of heavenly immortals in the late Qing period, gathered enough rules of Immortal Daoist, and had formed the Immortal Infant. It was only after the spiritual essence was restored that I finally completed my transformation into an immortal body.”
As if realizing something, Wang Hou asked, “The ginkgo tree?”
Grandmaster Chengming stroked his beard and smiled without speaking, taking it as a confirmation.
He looked down at the earth below, a flash of immortal light in his eyes disappeared and he said, “Get ready, those Netherworld Demons in the Wangwu Ghost Market are planning to break out; there may be a fierce battle later.”
“Oh?”
Wang Hou smiled and said, “I’m afraid they won’t come out…”
Xu Yang’s breakthrough was still ongoing.
About forty or fifty minutes later, suddenly an immortal gate opened in the sky, from the immortal gate, a strange force descended, enveloping Xu Yang.
Grandmaster Chengming’s expression suddenly changed, “This is not good… It’s the force of attraction, Xu Yang is still breaking through and may not be able to resist the force of attraction!”
…
In the Wangwu Ghost Market, the demon girl looked up at the sky and exclaimed, “He’s about to ascend… Let’s kill for the sake of Blood Emperor’s cause!”
Boom!
In an instant, seventy-three ferocious demonic auras erupted from the Wangwu Ghost Market, and the entire Wangwu Ghost Market shook violently under the impact of this power.
Various Yin spirits and malevolent beings shivered in the Ghost Market while weaker Yin spirits melted away like snow under the impact of the power.
Swish!
Lord Demon led the charge, holding a blood-red long sword as the first to rush out of the Ghost Market, and the other Netherworld Demons followed, killing everything in their path!
The Wangwu Mountain, originally enveloped in immortal light, was suddenly filled with demonic aura, even the starlight and moonlight in the sky were obscured by a thick demonic fog.
Wang Hou and Grandmaster Chengming’s expressions changed, ready to act.
Suddenly…
The world changed dramatically!
A cold hum resounded through the heavens and earth—
“Hmph!”
“Heavenly Court dares to snatch one of our people from the underworld?”
With just this cold hum, the immortal gate in the sky exploded, and the descending force of attraction instantly crumbled.
As the cold hum sounded, Xu Yang’s “immortal body” transformation, which originally would have taken a few more hours to complete, accelerates.
At the same time.
In the sky, the stars and moon, which were obscured by demonic clouds, suddenly burst into dazzling starlight.
“How dare you, Monster!”
“We’re here to congratulate Celestial Master Xu on his ascension… How dare you try to stop us?”
The demonic clouds in the sky were instantly torn apart.
The seventy-three Netherworld Demons who had just flown out of the Wangwu Ghost Market were illuminated by the starlight and immediately let out a painful cry, their bodies emitting wisps of green smoke.
At this moment, Xu Yang, who was originally sitting cross-legged in Wangwu Mountain and working on his breakthrough, suddenly opened his eyes.
He stood up and gave a fist salute to the starry sky, saying, “Fellow immortals, please show mercy… I just broke through, and these demons are perfect for me to practice on.”
The heavenly sky converged.
Numerous immortal shadows appeared faintly above the stars, and various congratulations were heard from the sky.
“Congratulations, Celestial Master Xu, on becoming immortal!”
“Celestial Master Xu, when will you hold an ascension feast? We will request leave from the Heavenly Emperor to come and support you.”
“Celestial Master Xu, you have just become immortal, and your cultivation is not yet stable. Killing these demons is easy, but if they want to run… it may be more troublesome. How about we help you seal the Wangwu Mountain with our divine powers?”
“…”
“Ah, this…”
Xu Yang said, “Fellow immortals, are you sure this won’t violate the heavenly rules?”
“We will simply use our divine powers to congratulate Celestial Master Xu on his ascension, not to deal with the Netherworld Demons. Even if the Heavenly Emperor knows, he won’t have trouble with us.”
Xu Yang could tell.
It was Lord Thunder’s voice.
Since even Lord Thunder, the one in charge of “heavenly punishment,” said so, there naturally wouldn’t be any problem.
Xu Yang couldn’t help but sigh inwardly…
The martial world is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human emotions and worldly matters.
Even as an immortal, the same still applied.
After chatting with the heavenly immortals.
Xu Yang used his Jiao-slaying Sword, and looking at the seventy-three Netherworld Demons gathered together, he said lightly, “Didn’t you say you were going to retreat in the Wangwu Ghost Market to recover your strength? Why are you coming out when I just became immortal?”
