Terran Guardian - Chapter 3897

Chapter 3873 He’s Back

The subsequent events.

The turmoil in Taiyuan Prefecture subsided considerably.

This was not only due to the appearance of the Seven Profound Dao Sect, but also because it was clear to everyone that the ancient battlefield could not last long.

When the time came,

they would return to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

At this time, it was essential to prepare for evacuation.

Otherwise,

if they were to appear in Taiyuan Prefecture in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, and other local forces launched a coordinated attack, it would be a huge problem.

Therefore,   all forces withdrew immediately.

Time   passed slowly, but the blood rain continued unabated.   Shen Changqing instructed the cultivators of the Xingdao Alliance to secretly monitor the movements in Nanyuan Daozhou, but the Daoist aura there had become a forbidden zone, making it impossible to even step inside.   Only the continuous falling blood rain indicated that the battle in Nanyuan Daozhou had never subsided.   Shen   Changqing focused on closed-door cultivation, while also guiding the sect disciples in their cultivation.   Time passed slowly.   The baleful aura in the world grew increasingly intense.   Until a certain critical point…   The heavens and earth trembled, and a vast expanse of purple energy swept across all directions, instantly dissipating all the bloody and malevolent aura.   Immediately afterward,   Shen Changqing noticed the Heavenly Dao Token in his sea of consciousness radiating brilliant light.   A feeling of divine inspiration compelled him to summon the fragment of the Creation Treasure.   In the next instant,   the Heavenly Dao Token transformed into a pure purple torrent, instantly merging into the fragment of the treasure.   Then,   the Great Dao evolved.   The enormous fragment of the treasure disintegrated and vanished before Shen Changqing’s eyes, only to reassemble itself once more.   Finally—   when the purple energy of the Great Dao dissipated, a dark ancient bell appeared in Shen Changqing’s sight.   But before Shen Changqing could react, a mysterious power surged forth, instantly shifting the stars and constellations. When he realized what had happened, everything around him remained unchanged, as if nothing had changed.   Yet, Shen Changqing gazed at the void and a smile played on his lips.   ”We’re back!”   This is the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm!   Not the Ancient Immortal Realm!   The faint, oppressive force between heaven and earth has completely dissipated.   At this very moment   , vast tribulation clouds gathered from all directions above the Cangwu Mountains.   ”The Immortal Emperor Tribulation!”   Shen Changqing, observing the changes in the void, understood immediately.   Over a million years, under normal circumstances, would hardly be enough for an ancient immortal to improve.   But—   it’s different in the Ancient Immortal Realm.   There, the opportunities of heaven and earth abound, and the blessings of the Heavenly Dao bestow upon them, making their accumulation of gains extraordinary.   Moreover,   the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s presence in the Northern Frontier   meant that many ancient immortals held the position of city lord, enjoying the blessings of the Heavenly Dao.   It should be known that   over a million years, any ancient immortal could obtain at least tens of thousands of Heavenly Dao blessings.   For a cultivator at the Ancient Immortal level, tens of thousands of Heavenly Dao blessings are unimaginable.   Therefore,   these Heavenly Dao blessings, transformed into opportunities, naturally led to rapid advancements in cultivation.   Under Shen Changqing’s divine sense, there were no fewer than a dozen cultivators within the Seven Profound Dao Sect attempting to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm.   Li Kaiyang, the peak master of Wangxian Peak, and Gu Chen, the peak master of Luoxing Peak, both leaped across several Ancient Immortal realms in one step, directly entering the Immortal Emperor realm.   Such a leap   was immense.   ”No wonder the Heavenly Dao Battlefield is so dangerous, yet many cultivators still choose to remain in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm when it arrives. Many more actively enter the Heavenly Dao Battlefield, stepping into the Ancient Immortal Realm.   If one can survive and obtain the opportunities of Heavenly Dao, it’s no exaggeration to say it’s a meteoric rise!”   At this moment, the opportunities contained within the Heavenly Dao Battlefield were materialized.   With such immense opportunities, it’s no wonder that many cultivators, despite their fear of the Heavenly Dao Battlefield, still rush in one after another.   However,   Shen Changqing also understood.   Not all cultivators could obtain such great opportunities; many more became cannon fodder in the Heavenly Dao Battlefield, perishing at the hands of other cultivators.   The malevolent energy of the ancient battlefield didn’t arise from nothing.   Each wisp of malevolent energy represented the fall of a living being.   Moreover,   in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, how many forces could directly conquer a northern frontier like the Seven Profound Dao Sect?   Most forces, let alone becoming the ruler of the northern frontier, would struggle even to occupy a single immortal city.   After all—   any immortal city represents a stable destiny bestowed by the Heavenly Dao, how could it not be tempting?   Most forces that dared to covet an immortal city would pay a tremendous price.   Therefore,   the strong always remain strong.   This is the principle.   …   At this moment   , the Immortal Emperor Tribulation appeared almost simultaneously. Within the sect, many cultivators who wished to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm unanimously left the Cangwu Mountains, heading directly towards the Chaos.   The Cangwu Mountains were too small.   They couldn’t accommodate multiple Immortal Emperors undergoing tribulation at the same time.   If all cultivators underwent the Immortal Emperor Tribulation in the same place, it would easily amplify the power of the tribulation. At that time, a slight mistake would lead to death and annihilation.   Therefore…   Entering the Chaos Realm to undergo tribulation is naturally much easier.   Seeing this,   Shen Changqing immediately took out a jade talisman to send a message, instructing several Longevity Demon Gods in the Offering Hall to secretly protect him.   With so many cultivators undergoing tribulation, it might attract the covetous eyes of some; having a few half-saints secretly protecting him would ensure much greater safety.   At the same time…

Various levels of heavenly tribulations descended from all sides of Taiyuan Prefecture, but none could match the astonishing scale of the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s tribulations.

When the numerous cultivators of the Seven Profound Dao Sect attracted tribulation clouds, many cultivators turned their gazes towards them.

“A Celestial Emperor Tribulation!”

“There must be at least a dozen or twenty of these tribulations!”

“It seems that the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s strength has increased rather than decreased in the Heavenly Dao Battlefield!”

Understanding this, these cultivators couldn’t hide their envy.

They couldn’t help but envy.

Celestial Emperors!

In Taiyuan Prefecture’s small territory, that was already a formidable force.

It wasn’t easy for ordinary forces to produce even one Celestial Emperor.

For the Seven Profound Dao Sect to produce a dozen or twenty Celestial Emperors at once was truly astonishing and enviable.

As a result,

the foundation of this force became even more astonishing.

“Twenty or so Immortal Emperors have attained enlightenment; truly, the strong always get stronger. The Seven Profound Dao Sect is now a dominant force in Taiyuan Prefecture.

Other forces have absolutely no chance of matching it!”

Inside Taiyuan Prefecture, Bei Ming Qingfeng took a deep breath, his expression showing only admiration, without a trace of jealousy.

Jealousy, after all, requires the right to be jealous.

The difference between the two sides is like heaven and earth; how could Shenxiao Pavilion have the right to be jealous?

In the ancient Immortal Realm, Bei Ming Qingfeng had also obtained some opportunities, but those opportunities were limited. Furthermore, his cultivation was already at the peak of Immortal Emperor; further advancement was naturally not easy.

Besides,

Shenxiao Pavilion had also produced two Immortal Emperors.

This was also good news.

Thinking of this,

Bei Ming Qingfeng looked in another direction, a chill flashing in his eyes.

“The Azure Jade Dao Sect was almost completely wiped out in the ancient Immortal Realm. Even if some of its resources remain in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, it’s not a threat.

Therefore, there’s no need for this force to remain!”

Destroy the Azure Jade Dao Sect!

This was the thought that arose in Bei Ming Qingfeng’s mind.

Given the current situation, destroying the Azure Jade Dao Sect was an excellent opportunity.

The Divine Firmament Pavilion’s strength not only didn’t diminish in the ancient battlefield battle, but actually increased significantly.

With this shift in power,

dealing with the Azure Jade Dao Sect would be a piece of cake.

Furthermore,

Bei Ming Qingfeng believed

that other forces were probably also secretly watching the Azure Jade Dao Sect, not making a move yet simply because they couldn’t spare the time.

After all, the Azure Jade Dao Sect, as one of the nine top forces of the former Taiyuan Prefecture, controlled a considerable amount of cultivation resources. It was impossible for other forces not to be tempted.

However—

Bei Ming Qingfeng didn’t act immediately.

He was waiting.

Waiting for the two Immortal Emperors of the Divine Firmament Pavilion to successfully transcend their tribulations.

With the assistance of two more Immortal Emperors, the destruction of the Azure Jade Dao Sect would be much easier.

…

Boom!

Rumble!!

The Immortal Emperor Tribulation continued to bombard, its powerful aura sweeping across the chaotic void, causing many powerful beings to look towards the source of the tribulation.

Even some ancient fallen immortals from forbidden zones of life were secretly coveting it.

Earlier, when the Heavenly Dao Battlefield opened, many fallen immortals sacrificed their immortal domains to extend their lifespans, but only a few truly succeeded.

Most fallen immortals suffered setbacks in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, ultimately returning defeated.

Now,

with an ancient immortal undergoing tribulation to become an Immortal Emperor, it was an opportunity for these fallen immortals.

Devouring an Immortal Emperor would be far more useful than sacrificing a weak immortal domain.

For those low-level immortal domains, the strongest were only cultivators at the Ancient Immortal Realm; even if billions of beings were combined, they wouldn’t be as useful as an Immortal Emperor.

But how easy would it be to suppress an Immortal Emperor at his peak?

Only after undergoing tribulation are Immortal Emperors at their weakest.

Soon,

as the first tribulation dissipated, a Fallen Immortal hiding in the shadows couldn’t hold back and attacked.

On the other side,

Gu Chen, having just passed the Immortal Emperor tribulation, hadn’t even had a chance to truly experience the power of the Immortal Emperor realm when he sensed the arrival of a powerful aura, his expression drastically changing.

“A Fallen Immortal!”

He stared at the figure traversing the void, his pupils contracting sharply.

Gu Chen only had a vague understanding of Fallen Immortals; this was the first time he had truly witnessed such ancient beings cultivating forbidden techniques.

Their strength was simply beyond his ability to contend with.

The mere suppression of their aura made him feel breathless, his immortal power stagnating, almost impossible to mobilize.

But just then,

an incomparably domineering aura erupted, instantly dispersing the Fallen Immortal’s aura, and then a towering figure pierced through the void.

“A mere fallen immortal dares to presume to attack the Immortal Emperor of my Seven Profound Dao Sect? You’re courting death!”

Duan Changsheng stretched out his right hand and pressed down on the fallen immortal.

The latter’s ferocity turned into fear, and he tried to beg for mercy, but it was too late.

In the end,

“Boom—”

Duan Changsheng’s five fingers pressed down, and the fallen immortal’s body exploded, instantly annihilating on the spot.
