Chapter 443: Chapter 266: Cultivation World 56_3
Qualification Test: The pain endurance in the Ascension Pool reflects a cultivator’s potential. Some cultivators are pre-selected by Huaqing Palace after soaking for twenty days, while those who endure over fifteen days are considered geniuses.
Levels in the Immortal Realm: Divided into the Nine Layers of Heaven, the vast majority of ascenders stop at the First Heaven, "Red Bright and Yang Heaven";
Power Distribution: The top forces within Red Bright Heaven are the "Prison Guardian Immortal Palace" and "Xuanbing Valley";
Law of Survival: Unregistered Immortals are forbidden to descend to the Lower Realm privately, violators trigger the "Heavenly Punishment Chain."
Common Knowledge in the Immortal Realm: "Seemingly harmless but actually deadly," for example, the default "three-day refinement period" in Red Bright Heaven is actually a time limit for major forces to screen slaves—those who exceed the time without completing transformation will be reduced to mining slaves.
After obtaining information about the Immortal Realm, Si Lingle went to the Ascension Pool.
The Ascension Pool resembled a massive sapphire, exuding a mysterious light. The liquid within the pool contained immense Immortal Spirit Power, greatly benefiting an Immortal’s cultivation.
Si Lingle leaped into the Ascension Pool, and instantly, a vast Immortal Spirit Power surged into her body.
This power, like a rushing river, circulated through her limbs and bones. She frantically operated her Cultivation Technique, absorbing and refining this terrifying Immortal Spirit Qi.
As time passed, Si Lingle not only stabilized her cultivation but also eliminated all impurities within her body, making her physique more pure.
In the Ascension Pool, Si Lingle felt her constant change and enhancement. Her cultivation rapidly ascended like a rocket, soon reaching the Mid-stage Earth Immortal.
At the moment of her breakthrough, the surrounding Immortal Spirit Power even more frantically poured into her body, her body like a massive vortex continually absorbing this power.
The water in the Ascension Pool surged violently due to her absorption, and her cultivation continued to rise, advancing toward higher realms.
The surrounding Immortals, witnessing this scene, couldn’t help but marvel at her talent and potential.
An elder flew in, standing above the Ascension Pool, his eyes full of shock and admiration: "This girl actually has such terrifying talent, just ascended to the Immortal Realm and has achieved such a high cultivation level. Millions of years later, she will indeed be another terrifying powerhouse."
Si Lingle freely absorbed the Immortal Spirit Power in the Ascension Pool. Her body grew stronger, and her aura became more stable.
Eventually, she stayed in the Ascension Pool for sixty-two days, completed her cultivation in the pool, flew out from it, and her cultivation reached the Late-stage Earth Immortal.
As Si Lingle stepped out of the pool, eight Communication Talismans almost simultaneously broke through the air. The cultivators on the platform by the pool, dressed in various Daoist robes, all stood up, their spiritual pressure intertwining into an invisible vortex.
Elder of the Heavenly Sword Pavilion: "Little friend, if you join our Pavilion, you can directly enter the Sword Tomb to comprehend the ’Taixu Sword Manual.’" As he spoke, the sword light transformed into nine virtual shadows, the Pavilion’s ultimate skill, "Nine Heavens Splitting Light Technique."
The steward of Danxia Valley turned his palm, revealing the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Tripod, the exotic fragrance causing plants and trees to grow wildly: "Choose any area from the three hundred miles of herb gardens in the Valley, and receive a monthly supply of Seven-Turn Replenishing Golden Pills."
The emissary of Lingxiao Immortal Pavilion was also unwilling to be outdone, stepping forward and holding an exquisite brocade box with both hands, saying: "Lingxiao Immortal Pavilion’s Immortal Law is exquisite, with connections throughout the Immortal Realm. Join us, and you can make Immortal Friends and have the opportunity to participate in major events of the Immortal Realm."
"In this brocade box is a part of our Pavilion’s treasured possession. Having it will greatly benefit your cultivation."
The representative of Purple Cloud Immortal Sect, standing tall, sincerely said: "Immortal friend, our Purple Cloud Immortal Sect cherishes benevolence and is situated in a serene and pleasant environment with an excellent cultivation atmosphere. If you join our sect, you will certainly be able to focus on cultivation in this peaceful environment, breaking through yourself."
The emissary of Xuanji Sect silently formed a spell, causing the surrounding space to appear with rune chains: "Fellow Daoist, since you understand Space Secret Technique, you should know our sect’s prized treasure, the Sumeru Chessboard..."
Before the voice fell, Demonic Qi suddenly surged from the northwest. It was a Demon Cultivator from Hehuan Sect, disguising as a disciple of the Immortal Sect after being exposed, still unwilling to give up: "Why should a woman of such exceptional talent endure pure cultivation?"
However, Si Lingle stood there quietly, her gaze firm and bright.
After everyone finished speaking, she lightly clasped her fists, her voice clear and resolute: "I appreciate the goodwill of all the Immortal Elders. Yun Hua understands. As a newcomer to the Immortal Realm, I wish to explore for a while before joining an Immortal Sect."
Now, she knows nothing about the Immortal Realm and cannot hastily, randomly join a sect.
Once she understands better, she will consider which sect is suitable to join.
Besides, she has another mission, which is to find the Dao Yuan Sect.
She does not know if the Dao Yuan Sect still exists. If it doesn’t, she will find a place to bury the bodies of the Dao Yuan Sect seniors.
The emissaries of those Immortal Sects showed expressions of shock, not expecting Si Lingle to refuse so decisively. Some attempted to persuade her again, but Si Lingle merely shook her head gently, with no hint of hesitation in her eyes.
The Green Robed Immortal approached, speaking in a friendly tone: "Fellow Daoist, this Identity Token."
Si Lingle received the highest-ranking purple token, which recorded her ascended Lower Realm, Taoist Name, and the number of days spent in the Ascension Pool.
"Thank you."
With that, Si Lingle lightly tapped her toes, flying toward the sky like an elegant crane. Behind her, voices of amazement and regret were left behind.
After flying some distance, Si Lingle took out the Spirit Boat.
Then she released several contracted Immortal Beasts and asked if they wanted to dissolve the Contract.
If they wanted to dissolve it, they could do so now, freeing them.
Except for Dabai (Cloud Stepping Beast), the others dissolved their Contract with Si Lingle.
Upon dissolution, the Immortal Beasts left with their Divine Skills.
Dabai thought the Immortal Beasts who dissolved the Contract were quite foolish. They had been in the Secret Realm of the Lower Realm for tens of thousands of years.
Returning to the Immortal Realm now, the realm must have changed drastically.
Whether they could find their clans was still uncertain, and during the search process, they might be killed.
Following the master provided more security because the master has powerful weapons!
