Just when everyone thought they had misheard, Rong Zi's angry voice came again from within the lightning tribulation.
"You old bastard, you actually did this on purpose! That's going too far!"
"Let me tell you, I'm angry right now, really angry! You, you, you... if you strike us one more time, do you believe I'll quit? I don't care about the imbalance of the Heavenly Laws anymore. I'm taking my disciples and giving up on ascension, so you'll have nowhere to cry!"
The crowd outside Rongling Sect was dumbfounded as they listened to Rong Zi's incessant chatter.
"He actually dares to defy the Heavenly Dao, is Rong Zi... insane?"
"However, why does what she said sound like a threat?"
"Threatening the Heavenly Dao? Are you kidding me?"
"Does she really think that if she curses at the Heavenly Dao a few times, the Heavenly Dao will listen to her and stop sending down heavenly lightning on her and her master?"
"That's hilarious. If that's really the case, then when everyone ascends to immortality, they won't need to use their physical bodies to resist the heavenly lightning; they can just yell a few curses at the heavens and that's it..."
"Exactly, if this method works, I'll eat shit while standing on my head."
No sooner had this person finished speaking than someone shouted, "No! Look! It seems the lightning has really stopped striking!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present immediately turned their gaze towards the sky above Rongling Sect.
When they saw what was happening before them, their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in shock.
Suddenly, the lightning power in the nine thunderbolts in the sky, which were covered by layers of dark clouds, began to weaken at a visible rate.
The raging energy of heaven and earth in the air slowly dissipated.
The trembling earth gradually returned to calm.
Not only that.
As the power of thunder in the eye of the storm weakened, a strange energy that was both holy and gentle gradually began to appear.
Ultimately, the energy transformed into beams of sacred light.
A beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping Rong Zi and Yun Jing, who had just survived the tribulation.
The energy within the beam was incredibly pure, containing an inexhaustible power of the Great Dao and a continuous source of divine essence.
Bathed in the beam of light, Rong Zi and the others slowly rose into the air.
At the same time, divine energy filled their bodies, and the injuries caused by the heavenly lightning on their bodies were rapidly healed.
The wound healed, and the skin returned to normal.
His whole body seemed to be full of power.
Every meridian and every inch of flesh in their bodies seemed to be refined and baptized, gradually transforming them from mortal bodies into immortal bodies.
As Rong Zi sensed the energy within the beam of light, a satisfied smile slowly crept onto his lips.
"That's more like it."
The crowd watching this scene outside Rongling Sect exclaimed in amazement, "This scene... is so spectacular!"
Are they about to successfully ascend to heaven?
"Of course, is that even a question?"
"By the way, who was it that said they were going to eat shit while standing upside down? They can't go back on their word."
The person who just said they wanted to eat shit while standing upside down: "..."
...
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Rong Zi and his disciples gradually rose into the clouds and eventually disappeared.
The clouds in the sky slowly dissipated the moment they disappeared.
Only a clear sky remained.
Of Rong Zi's seven disciples, apart from Qi Yufei and Xi Ling'er, the other five had no relatives.
Among the crowd, Qi Ming, Qi Yufei's father, and Xi Hongyu, Xi Ling'er's father, looked up at the clear blue sky above. The worry in their eyes gradually faded, replaced by a deep sense of pride and honor.
In fact, before their ascension, Qi Yufei and Xi Ling'er had already returned home to inform their families about their upcoming ascension and bid them a formal farewell.
Qi Ming and Xi Hongyu could have chosen not to come.
However, transcending tribulation and ascending to immortality is a matter of life and death, and they were really worried about it, so they still came.
Now that their child has finally succeeded in ascending to heaven, their anxious hearts can finally be put at ease.
However, after this parting, it is unknown when we will meet again.
The day they can transcend tribulations and ascend to immortality will probably be many, many years from now...
Now that Rong Zi and the other main characters have ascended to the upper realm, there is no need for those people watching the spectacle outside Rongling Sect to stay any longer.
Just as they were about to leave, Murong Zhen, who was late, finally arrived.
Looking at the crowd preparing to go home, he frowned and asked, "Is it over?"
Cloud Mist Island is far too far from Rongling Sect.
Although he rushed here as fast as he could, it still took him two whole days.
Fortunately, he received messages from Shui Qingyue and Song Fengming on the way, so he knew a little about the situation at Rongling Sect.
Shui Qingyue shrugged. "Yes, it's over. Rong Zi and her disciples just ascended and left. Alliance Leader, you're late."
"You didn't see it. The procession when the master and his disciple ascended to heaven was huge. The scene was absolutely spectacular," Wang Qiwen exclaimed in amazement.
Murong Zhen narrowed his eyes and glanced in the direction above Rongling Sect. "Although I didn't witness it with my own eyes, I could sense it as I rushed here."
The collective ascension of Rong Zi and his disciples almost shook the entire cultivation world.
Even his Cloud Mist Island caused such a commotion, let alone the ascension site here.
It's a pity he didn't see it...
Lu Zhongyi waved his hand, "Now that it's over, everyone can go home."
The Yaohuo Sect was very close by. Song Fengming invited Murong Zhen, saying, "Since the Alliance Leader is here, why don't you come and sit in our sect?"
Murong Zhen shook his head.
"No, I have more important things to do."
Upon hearing this, Shui Qingyue and Wang Qiwen also came over and asked curiously.
"What's up?"
Murong Zhen met their gazes and said in a meaningful tone, "You may have to elect a new leader for the Immortal Alliance."
Upon hearing this, Shui Qingyue and the others were all stunned for a moment.
"What's the meaning?"
Why would you need to elect a new leader when everything is going well?
Now, Rong Zi and her disciples have all ascended to the upper realm, and Murong Zhen is now the strongest in the cultivation world in terms of cultivation and strength.
Who else but him could serve as the leader of the Immortal Alliance?
Shui Qingyue and Song Fengming exchanged glances and suddenly thought of a possibility.
"Could it be..."
Murong Zhen looked at their reactions and slowly nodded.
"Yes, I'm going to ascend as well."
...
On the other side, after Rong Zi and Yun Jing's figures rose into the clouds, everything went black.
When they came to their senses, they were already on the ground, in a place filled with celestial energy.
The group slowly opened their eyes.
Yun Jing and the others opened their eyes wide and looked around curiously.
Looking at everything unfamiliar in front of her, Ning Lingling tilted her head and asked Rong Zi next to her.
"Master, is this the Upper Realm?"
