The endless void shattered like a mirror, and the world seemed to be torn apart with countless cracks. Chaos and nothingness intertwined, and boundless earth, fire, water, and wind howled and scattered, forming a violent torrent that swept towards Songtao Zhenren and the others.
Some of these people were still cursing angrily, while others were kneeling and begging for mercy, but as the earth, fire, water, and wind approached, their eyes were filled with terror and despair.
Some people finally realized their mistakes and regretted it deeply, wondering why they hadn't listened to Li Taixu's advice.
However, it was too late; the shadow of death loomed over them, leaving them no escape.
They were frozen in mid-air by the Hongmeng Bell, unable to move, and could only watch helplessly as the tide of death drew ever closer.
At this critical moment, the entire righteous immortal sect faced the danger of total annihilation.
Suddenly, a great light shone from the heavens above, and boundless immortal energy transformed into countless rays of light, dazzling and brilliant.
The next moment, a Taiyi Golden Immortal slowly emerged from the brilliant celestial light.
After he appeared, he gently raised his hand and pointed at Master Songtao and the others, instantly sending them thousands of miles away.
Du Xuan frowned slightly upon seeing this unexpected Taiyi Golden Immortal.
He wondered to himself, "Who is this person?"
At this moment, after the many sect leaders of the Immortal Path had safely descended, they couldn't help but feel lingering fear.
They all looked at the person who had come to their aid, wanting to know who possessed such great strength and supernatural abilities.
Bai Luchan stared intently at the figure for a while, then suddenly an excited expression appeared on her face.
He strode forward and bowed deeply to the man from afar, saying, "Disciple respectfully welcomes the Ancestral Master to the mortal realm!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was startled and followed Bai Luchan's gaze.
They finally realized that this mysterious person was actually the ancestor of the Qingyun Sword Sect who had already ascended to immortality!
Master Songtao hurriedly approached Bai Luchan and asked in a low voice, "Brother Bai, which patriarch of your sect is this?"
He knew that the Qingyun Sword Sect had a long history, and that more than a dozen founders had successfully ascended to the immortal realm over the millions of years since its founding.
Bai Luchan smiled slightly and replied softly, "Who else could it be? Of course, it's my ancestor Qingyunzi."
Upon hearing this answer, Master Songtao and the other sect leaders nodded in understanding.
It turns out that this mysterious and powerful figure is none other than Qingyunzi, the founder of the Qingyun Sword Sect!
Qingyunzi, as the founder of the Qingyun Sword Sect, held an extremely revered position.
His appearance shocked everyone and filled them with awe.
At this moment, everyone was filled with anticipation, hoping that this crisis might be resolved because of Qingyunzi's arrival.
However, after his initial excitement, Bai Luchan felt a pang of worry. He knew that the ancestor Qingyunzi had already ascended to the Immortal Realm, and to his knowledge, none of the predecessors who had ascended had ever returned.
It seems that there is a difference between the celestial and the human realm, and those who ascend must pay a certain price if they wish to return.
In fact, he was unaware that the patriarchs of the ten great immortal sects of the righteous path, who had ascended to immortality, foresaw the impending destruction of the mortal lineages. They gathered together and discussed the matter for some time before reaching a consensus.
With the help of others, they secretly broke the boundary between heaven and man, sending Qingyunzi down to the mortal realm to solve the problem.
When Qingyunzi finishes his work and returns to the Heavenly Realm, if the Heavenly Court finds out, he will surely be punished by the Heavenly Emperor.
Of course, they held quite high positions in the Heavenly Realm. If they pleaded with the Heavenly Emperor together, Qingyunzi might be able to get away with it after paying a certain price...
Qingyunzi descended to the mortal realm and saved a group of righteous disciples. Then, looking at the shattered void below and the raging earth, fire, water, and wind, he felt a little heavy-hearted.
The aftershocks of the battle here have caused such enormous destruction, demonstrating just how intense the fighting was.
Immediately afterwards, his gaze shifted to Du Xuan in the distance, and the Hongmeng Bell that Du Xuan was holding in his hand.
“Youngsters over there! Your ancestor has descended from the heavens specifically for your Heavenly Divine Mountain. Why don’t you hurry over and pay your respects?”
Qingyunzi let out a loud shout, his voice as booming as a bell, resounding throughout the heavens and earth.
Upon hearing this, Du Xuan's heart tightened, and he gripped the Hongmeng Bell even tighter.
"This old man is actually from the Immortal Realm! He deserves to die! What should we do next?"
Even from a distance, Du Xuan sensed a powerful pressure emanating from Qing Yunzi, a pressure that made it almost impossible for him to breathe.
If it weren't for the Primordial Bell in his hand shielding him from some of the pressure, he might have already collapsed to his knees.
However, he knew that with his cultivation at the Nascent Soul stage, he would be no different from an ant when he encountered such a person. Now, facing a powerful immortal, running away might be the only way to survive.
Upon hearing Qingyunzi's words, he no longer hesitated. He picked up the Hongmeng Bell, leaped into the void, and returned to the Heavenly Divine Mountain.
With a flash, he transformed into a dazzling streak of light and rushed into the celestial palace at an astonishing speed.
With a clear goal in mind, he sped straight toward the main hall of the celestial palace.
"Senior brother, something terrible has happened!"
He shouted loudly, his voice echoing throughout the entire celestial palace, and then rushed into the main hall of the celestial palace without hesitation.
At this moment, Hu Le was sitting upright on Biyou bed, calmly looking at Du Xuan who had barged into the hall. His face remained as indifferent and composed as ever.
Only after Du Xuan had stood firmly on his feet did he slowly speak, "What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket? Calm down first."
Hu Le's composure reassured Du Xuan, who took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
"Tell me, what exactly happened?" Hu Le asked, seeing that Du Xuan had finally regained his composure.
Du Xuan hurriedly replied, "Senior brother, the situation is not good! A celestial being has suddenly descended from the heavens. He claims to have come to this celestial realm, and from his words and actions, he does not seem to be lying."
"The Immortal Realm? Heh..." Upon hearing this, Hu Le's lips curled up slightly, and he chuckled softly.
To him, the so-called immortals were nothing more than slightly larger than ordinary ants.
"Oh? So what if they come from the Immortal Realm? Haven't I already lent you the Primordial Bell? As long as you ring this bell, let alone a mere immortal, even if the Heavenly Emperor of this realm were to descend in person, what could he do to you?!"
Upon hearing these words, Du Xuan was stunned and thought to himself, "This..." He couldn't help but feel that his senior brother had gone too far, daring to so disregard the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Emperor.
Just as Du Xuan was at a loss for words, a figure shrouded in celestial light silently appeared above the Heavenly Divine Mountain.
"Where is the master of this place? The ancestor has descended here, how can you not come out to greet him quickly..." Qingyunzi's somewhat aged and sharp voice rang out above the Heavenly Divine Mountain, spreading throughout the entire universe...
