reason
"No...not enough strength!" a demigod shouted hoarsely.
Despair began to spread. They had already sacrificed the top resources of the entire Canglan Realm and burned all the cultivation of seventeen semi-immortals. If this still didn't work, then there would be no hope.
Mo Yuan's eyes turned red, and he began to burn his own essence, trying to squeeze out the last bit of strength.
Zhong Ling sighed and finally took action.
She raised her right hand and snapped her fingers towards the chaotic beam of light.
A ray of spiritual light flew out from her fingertips and merged into the chaotic light column.
In an instant, the situation changed suddenly!
The beam of light, which had been running out of steam and beginning to dim, suddenly burst out with a light a hundred times stronger than before after being blessed by this ray of spiritual light!
“Crack.”
With a slight sound, the shackles that had locked the Canglan Realm for a full ten thousand years broke.
In the sky, a door emitting colorful rays of light slowly opened.
The ascension channel is open!
Immortal spiritual energy poured down from the immortal gate, and the seventeen half-immortals bathed in the immortal spiritual energy. Their dried-up spiritual power was instantly replenished, and their dry bodies were rejuvenated with new vitality.
This is a gift from heaven, compensation for their ten thousand years of waiting.
“It’s open…it’s really open!”
A half-immortal old man burst into tears. He knelt on the ground and cried loudly towards the immortal door.
"Master! Disciple... has not let you down!" Another half-immortal roared to the sky.
Mo Yuan felt the ascension traction coming from his body, suppressed the excitement in his heart, turned around, and led the sixteen semi-immortals behind him to bow down to Zhong Ling.
What they worship is not a strong person, but the benefactor who saved the entire Canglan world.
"Thank you, Lord, for reopening the path to immortality for my Canglan Realm!"
"Okay, stop wasting time. The road is open for you. Go quickly and don't act like you haven't seen the world before."
“…”
"Yes, we will obey the Lord's will!"
They bowed deeply to Zhong Ling again, then turned around without hesitation and flew into the fairy gate, their figures disappearing in the fairy light.
Yao Wuji and the others witnessed this scene from a distance. They were all very excited and their awe for Zhong Ling had reached its peak.
The news of the reopening of the Ascension Road spread to every corner of the Canglan Realm within just one day, and the whole world was in an uproar.
Zhong Ling's name also spread throughout the Canglan Realm. Everyone knelt on the ground and kowtowed towards the sword tomb, and endless wish power entered Zhong Ling's body.
…
Fairyland, Eastern Region, Reception Office.
The Reception Department is in charge of the ascension affairs of thousands of small worlds under its jurisdiction. In one of the reception pools in a remote corner, the water is almost dry, making it look particularly desolate.
By the pool, two guards wearing immortal armor were chatting idly.
"Old Zhang, what's the point of us guarding this Canglan Pond? It's been ten thousand years, and we haven't seen a single person, let alone a ghost. Are the immortal essence stones there so easy to get? It's pure exile."
The younger guard, Li Hu, kicked the stones at his feet with a face full of resentment.
Zhang Quan, the guard known as Lao Zhang, was leaning against a stone pillar, resting his eyes. He barely even blinked at the words, "It's good to have the Immortal Essence Stone. It's better than being cannon fodder on the first battlefield. Besides, isn't it nice to have some free time? When it's time to rotate, let's go to the Immortal Brewing Pavilion for a few drinks. Wouldn't that be fun?"
"Happiness is bullshit," Li Hu curled his lips, "The immortal spirit in this shabby place is thinner than anywhere else. I feel like my cultivation is going to regress."
Zhang Quan uttered a "Hey" and was about to lecture the young man again when something strange happened.
"Buzz—"
This welcoming pool, which had been silent for ten thousand years, suddenly emitted a dull humming sound.
Immediately afterwards, the array pattern at the bottom of the pool lit up, and a beam of light shot up into the sky.
"What's going on?!" Li Hu jumped up with a start and rubbed his eyes. "Lao Zhang, look! What's going on with this pool?"
Zhang Quan suddenly opened his eyes, with a look of shock on his face.
They have been guarding here for three hundred years, and there has never been a ripple in the pond.
"This is... this is the guiding fairy light!" Zhang Quan's voice trembled a little.
The light from the beam faded away, and seventeen figures appeared in the pool one after another.
They stood in the pool, a little dazed at first, and then greedily breathed in the fairy spirit in the air, with intoxicated expressions on their faces.
"The spirit of the immortals... This is the immortal world!"
"It's been ten thousand years! I'm finally here!"
"Ahem!" Zhang Quan and Li Hu recovered from their shock and immediately assumed a businesslike demeanor. They took a few steps forward and shouted, "Who are you? From which realm did you ascend?"
Although his heart was in turmoil, the rules of the Jieyin Division could not be abolished.
The Canglan Pool, which has not been open for ten thousand years, suddenly received a large number of goods. This is a huge matter and we must get to the bottom of it.
The seventeen people suppressed their excitement, bowed to the two guards, and said loudly: "We are from the Canglan Realm, and greet the two immortal officials."
"Canglan Realm?!"
Li Sihu subconsciously retorted, "Impossible! The ascension passage to Canglan Realm was sealed ten thousand years ago. How could you possibly get up there?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the ecstasy on the faces of the seventeen demigods froze.
"Immortal official, what do you mean by that?" a demigod asked with a frown, "Why is the path to ascension in our world forbidden?"
"Oh, this is not even a secret in the fairy world." Zhang Quan crossed his arms with a sarcastic expression.
"Ten thousand years ago, a remarkable figure emerged from your Canglan Realm. Not long after he ascended to heaven, he was transferred to the first battlefield to resist the demons.
As a result, that guy was too afraid of death on the battlefield, which led to the breach of the first battlefield defense line. Our Eastern Region Immortal Army suffered heavy losses, including the death of three Immortal Lords.
He paused, his tone becoming a little colder: "When this matter was reported back, the Great Elder of Yuan Jingtang was furious. He is the Lord of the Central Territory and has enormous power.
In a rage, he ordered to sever the connection between Canglan Realm and the Immortal Realm, and completely ban it.
In the words of the Great Elder, a world so treacherous and irresponsible is unworthy of having any more Ascendants."
What? ? ? ? ? ? ! ! ! ! ! !
It turns out that they were trapped for thousands of years, and countless brilliant ancestors died, not because of the ruthlessness of heaven, but because of the involvement of a traitor!
"Who is it? Who is that traitor?!" a hot-tempered man said with bloodshot eyes.
"Yuan Jingtang? The five domain masters?" Some people focused on different things.
"What? You want to cause trouble right after you come here?" Zhang Quan's immortal sense swept over, and the man with a hot temper immediately calmed down.
Li Hu explained, "Yuan Jing Hall is the highest ruling place in the Immortal Realm, and it is jointly managed by the five domain masters, who are the five elders.
The one who ordered the closure of your Canglan Realm was none other than the head of the five elders, the Lord of the Central Territory.
As for that traitor, who still remembers the name of that unknown person from ten thousand years ago? Anyway, from that day on, your Canglan Realm is the place of punishment for sin in the Immortal Realm."
"Alright, stop standing here." Zhang Quan waved his hand impatiently and took out a jade slip, "Since you've come up here, you must be from the Immortal Realm.
This is the law and guidance map of the Eastern Region. Memorize it carefully.
I will go to Jieying City to register as an immortal first, and then make a living on my own.
Remember, the immortal world is not like you in the lower realms. You have to behave yourself, or you will die without knowing how. "
Li Si also threw over seventeen identity tokens: "Take them, don't lose them."
They respectfully took the jade slips and tokens, bowed, and then walked out of the reception pool with heavy steps.
Outside the pool is the vast expanse of heaven and earth, filled with fairy air and suspended fairy mountains, a magnificent scene.
But the seventeen people had mixed feelings in their hearts. The road ahead was long and full of unknowns and confusion.
