An ascension platform?
Li Qing stared at the words, momentarily stunned. After a long pause, he remembered: wasnโt this the artifact that Old Man Tianxing and True Monarch Jialuo had jointly refined during their time in the Spirit Treasure Realm?
This device was designed to assist cultivators at the divine transformation stage during their ascension into the void. It could even help them navigate the chaotic void currents and locate the Spirit Realm Beacon.
"They actually managed to refine it. Their methods are truly remarkable," Li Qing murmured to himself, his mind racing with thoughts.
He naturally understood the implications. The creation of this platform signaled that Wan Shengtian was preparing to shatter the void and ascend to the upper realm.
"It seems Wan Shengtian is inviting me to witness his ascension."
Shattering the void and ascending to the spirit realm!
These eight words had been steeped in myth and legend since time immemorial, representing the ultimate aspiration of all cultivators in the Human Realm.
After all, what was the purpose of cultivation if not to attain enlightenment and become an immortal?
In the Human Realm, the pinnacle of the Great Dao was the divine transformation stage. The distance remaining to the legendary enlightenment and ascension to immortality was still immeasurable.
Only by ascending to the spirit realm and continuing to cultivate diligently on the dao could one hope to glimpse the true splendor of the immortal dao.
"Ascension..."
Li Qingโs gaze sharpened as he recalled how Shen Ningbing had accidentally fallen into a void rift, and how a single Yin-Yang Spirit Seal on her person had guided her to the upper realm.
In a sense, he had witnessed a true ascension.
"The dao of the Human Realm is flawed; ultimately, one must ascend to the upper realm."
"Thereโs no harm in going to observe this event. While Iโm there, I might as well see if I can obtain methods from the Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Guild to break through the Divine Transformation stage."
With that, Li Qing fully unfolded the Spirit Sealing Letter, revealing a golden incense stick within.
This was the key to entering the Spirit Treasure Realm. Outsiders had to burn such an incense stick each time to activate the realmโs independent space.
Ultimately, Li Qing decided to attend the grand event of ascension.
If the ascension platform proved truly effective, he might even use it himself in the future.
After over a decade in seclusion, Li Qing finally emerged from his retreat.
In recent years, the Lingyun Sect had remained remarkably stable, hosting two ascension conferences and recruiting a substantial number of new disciples.
The sectโs scale continued to expand, and Su Xinโs successful nascent soul formation had further solidified its position.
Now, the Lingyun Sect stood as an undisputed overlord of the immortal dao. As long as Li Qing remained, the sect possessed the power to dominate the entire Human Realm.
At the very least, all cultivators in the Azure Ridge Domain depended entirely on the sectโs favor for their survival, a testament to the colossal influence of this behemoth.
With sect affairs running smoothly, the Lingyun Sect maintained its magnificent grandeur, projecting an image of continuous prosperity.
The newly admitted disciples, full of youthful vigor, faced no internal worries or external threats, naturally finding little cause for concern.
Daily matters were handled by Sect Leader Xu Xia. Through years of tempering, his skills had matured considerably, proving Li Qingโs judgment correctโhe was indeed capable of leading the sect.
Itโs worth noting that Xu Xia had now advanced to the pseudo core formation stage and was preparing for core formation.
Although managing the sectโs affairs required considerable effort and attention, Li Qingโs cultivation had not stagnated thanks to his generous stipend.
"Hmm, not bad. I havenโt neglected my own cultivation," he murmured.
Li Qing subtly swept his divine sense across the entire sect, gaining a general understanding of its current state. He nodded in satisfaction.
With the sectโs population steadily growing, the territory within the mountain gate had become somewhat cramped.
To ensure that newly promoted foundation establishment elders had independent cave abodes, Xu Xia had recently convened several meetings of the Council of Elders to discuss establishing a branch sect at the high-grade spiritual veins once belonging to the Heavenly River Sect.
For this purpose, he had also sought the opinions of every supreme elder within the sect before making the final decision.
The Lingyun Sect resolved to establish the Heavenly River spiritual vein as the base of operations for its new branch sect!
Li Qing did not interfere in this matter, allowing it to develop naturally.
Once he confirmed that there were no pressing sect matters requiring his attention, Li Qing stored the essential items from his cave abode into his Void Shell and prepared to depart.
Having completed everything, he soared into the sky, his figure vanishing at the horizon.
Wan Shengtian was preparing for ascension!
This news sent shockwaves through the entire cultivation world of the Human Realm. Regardless of their cultivation level, most cultivators had heard rumors about this extraordinary event.
"How is this possible? Someone is actually preparing for ascension!"
"Itโs said to be the ancestor of the Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Guild. With his lifespan nearing its end, heโs attempting forced ascension to seize a brighter future!"
"Itโs not exactly forced ascension. Senior Wan seems to have made thorough preparations. He must have a significant chance of success."
"I heard Senior Wan has invited many Enlightened Masters to witness his ascension."
"..."
The event was truly monumental. Even those new to the cultivation world had heard about it. The sheer scale and grandeur were undeniable.
Moreover, Wan Shengtian had indeed invited numerous guests to observe his ascension ceremony. Though all were Nascent Soul cultivators, their numbers were substantial.
The Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Guild had invited all Nascent Soul true monarchs with whom they had any connections, spanning the Eight Lower Realms and the Four Seas Region.
This was a grand event, and dozens of Nascent Soul true monarchs were expected to attend, all hailing from powerful immortal dao factions across the Human Realm.
Li Qing flew leisurely through the boundless sky above the vast ocean.
The journey was long, and without a suitable teleportation array, it would take some time.
During his travels, Li Qing remained busy, continuously refining the Immortal Slaughtering Sword with his true essence and nourishing it.
