The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 625: Ascendant



“Ascendant!”

“This… Elder Taixu has actually reached the level of an Ascendant!”

“An Ascendant, who would have thought that we could witness the birth of an Ascendant today!”

“An Ascendant, this is an Ascendant!

From now on, he is different from countless other cultivators, he has a true immortal body!”

“…”

After a long moment of awe, everyone present showed extreme envy.

He had crossed the Great Perfection Realm and entered the ranks of the Ascended Beings.

This made him a top-level cultivator and a supreme being in the world of cultivation.

This scene not only shocked many cultivators, but also filled Su Jingzhen with excitement.

“The ultimate goal of cultivators is indeed to become immortal.

Even if it’s only an Ascendant, it’s likely that he has attained a longevity worthy of the heavens.”

Su Jingzhen thought inwardly.

Then he became curious: “Suzhen, how do you compare to Elder Taixu?”

This was a test for Bai Suzhen.

She answered directly: “I’m not that strong, so there’s no need to test me. Even at my peak, I hadn’t reached that level.”

Her tone was complex.

Before Su Jingzhen could reply, she continued: “However, you don’t need to worry. Even though I haven’t reached Elder Taixu’s level, I’m still more than capable of protecting you.

After all, there are probably not even a handful of cultivators of this caliber in the entire Luo River region.”

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen felt more at ease.

After all, it was only his second day in the Luo River region, and he had already witnessed a supreme Ascendant.

This made him both anticipate and be wary of the power in the Luo River region.

Of course, if it weren’t for Bai Suzhen, he wouldn’t have been so bold from the very beginning.

After all, with his system, as long as he stayed alive, he would eventually reach the invincible stage.

While everyone was discussing, the light around Elder Taixu suddenly transformed into a five-colored form.

This energy directly formed a towering column of light.

It shot up from the ruins of the Beast Pavilion.

The aura emanating from it was vast and holy.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen and the others clearly saw a tall figure slowly appear within the five-colored light pillar.

His face was still old, but not as hunched as before.

It was indeed Elder Taixu.

However, unlike before, Elder Taixu was now brimming with boundless vitality.

There was no trace of his previous frail state.

As Elder Taixu stepped out, the five-colored energy pillar surrounding him dissipated.

The surrounding world was still filled with incomparable Dao principles.

It was still available for everyone present to absorb and comprehend.

At this moment, with his hands behind his back, Elder Taixu swept his profound gaze over everyone present.

Wherever his gaze fell, everyone bowed respectfully.

Whether they were from the Heavenly Dragon Race or other major powers in the Luo River region, they all showed the same reverence.

“If this place is useful, it should be left for everyone in the Luo River region. The Heavenly Dragon Race cannot arbitrarily close it off.”

Elder Taixu spoke directly.

His words immediately silenced the scene.

After everyone reacted, the people from the Yan Clan, Ji Clan, and other factions were immediately excited.

This was clearly a blessing that Elder Taixu had left for the Luo River region.

Even though this was a relatively core area of the Heavenly Dragon Race, it would now become a public place for the Luo River region.

The Heavenly Dragon Lord probably wouldn’t dare to disobey Elder Taixu’s order.

As soon as his words fell, the Heavenly Dragon Lord bowed to him.

“We will follow Elder Taixu’s order!”

Elder Taixu was already a legendary figure in the Heavenly Dragon Race.

Before that, the Heavenly Dragon Lord’s status was already lower than Elder Taixu’s.

His strength was inferior as well.

Now that Elder Taixu had demonstrated his Ascendant power, the Heavenly Dragon Lord had to respect him even more.

After all, he was only the public leader of the Heavenly Dragon Race, while Elder Taixu and the three elders were the true foundation and confidence that allowed the Heavenly Dragon Race to prosper and dominate the Luo River region.

Elder Taixu nodded at him.

Then his eyes turned to Xuening and Su Jingzhen.

But he just looked at them and didn’t say anything.

With a step, his figure disappeared from the original location of the Beast Pavilion.

Disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Seeing this, everyone came to their senses and bowed respectfully in the direction where Elder Taixu had disappeared.

Within a ten-mile radius of this place, it would become an absolute holy place for the Luo River region.

Although many top-tier forces, such as the Yan Clan and the Ji Clan, might have their own Ascendant-level cultivators, those cultivators would probably not share their Dao principles as openly and selflessly as Elder Taixu.

Especially for the second- and third-tier forces, similar to the former Tortoise Sect, they would be even more grateful to Elder Taixu.

After all, if someone from their ranks could advance with the help of what Elder Taixu left behind, their own forces could also take a step forward.

“The Heavenly Dragon Race’s continued prosperity in the Luo River region has its reasons.

Elder Taixu’s level of vision is rarely matched by others.”

“The Dao principles here might be a mere embellishment for top-level forces like the Yan Clan and the Ji Clan.

But for too many other forces, it’s a lifesaver.

From now on, the reputation of the Heavenly Dragon Race will be unparalleled.”

“This is secondary. Elder Taixu has reached the level of an Ascendant, so the Heavenly Dragon Race’s leading position will probably remain unchallenged for the next few thousand years.”

“…”

While discussing this, various factions had their own thoughts.

Today’s events had progressed to this point, and the Heavenly Dragon Gathering might have become nothing more than an afterthought.

However, what needed to continue would continue.

With a smile on his face, the Heavenly Dragon Lord stepped forward to the center of the Beast Pavilion.

“The matter here in the Beast Pavilion has come to an end.

The Dao principles here have been personally condensed by Elder Taixu and will probably last for a very long time.

For those who need to make a breakthrough, please feel free to stay here.

Those who have no such need, please return with me to the main square of Heavenly Dragon City to continue the unfinished Heavenly Dragon Assembly!”

After pausing for a moment, the Heavenly Dragon Lord added, “And I, as the leader of the Heavenly Dragon Race, promise everyone here that this place will be open to any power in the Luo River region for a long time to come.

All cultivators are welcome to come and comprehend!”

With that, the Heavenly Dragon Lord did not hesitate any longer.

He took a step and headed towards the previous central square.

After all, the Heavenly Dragon Gathering had just begun.

As the Heavenly Dragon Lord moved, many high-ranking members of the Heavenly Dragon Race and the leaders of various factions followed.

Except for those who were in the midst of a breakthrough or who had gained insight and remained seated, the others still had to show their faces to the Heavenly Dragon Lord.

After all, he had already promised permanent openness.

Even if they wanted to understand, they didn’t mind waiting a bit.

“Let’s go, it’s time to return to the Heavenly Dragon Gathering ground.”

At this moment, Qiu Yaoyao smiled again and said to Su Jingzhen and Xuening.

The three of them had become the biggest beneficiaries today.

Excessive greed was unnecessary, and there was no need to comprehend the Dao principles left here along with everyone else.

Of course, understanding Dao principles was not Su Jingzhen’s strong point.

This time, when they returned to the central square, Qiu Yaoyao did not take them to the edge again.

Instead, they openly walked over to where the Heavenly Dragon Lord was sitting.

Then they sat down next to the Heavenly Dragon Lord.

Their demeanor seemed to be on par with that of the Heavenly Dragon Lord.

In fact, all three of them were in the first sequence of the Heavenly Dragon Race, so their status was indeed not inferior to the Heavenly Dragon Lord.

However, Su Jingzhen and Xuening’s first sequence status was not known to others, so their bold seating arrangement inevitably raised doubts in most people’s minds.

Of course, as the leader of the Heavenly Dragon Race, the Heavenly Dragon Lord was aware of Su Jingzhen and Xuening’s first-sequence status.

Therefore, he naturally did not feel any discomfort.

“Let me introduce you, this is our leader, the Heavenly Dragon Lord.”

At this moment, Qiu Yaoyao pointed directly at the Heavenly Dragon Lord and introduced him to Su Jingzhen and Xuening.

Since they were in this position, it was natural not to skip any formalities.

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen and Xuening stood up and bowed to the Heavenly Dragon Lord as a sign of respect.

Regardless of their identities, their current strength was indeed that of a junior, so it was appropriate for them to bow to the Heavenly Dragon Lord.

Seeing this, the Heavenly Dragon Lord’s mouth curved into a smile and he nodded to them.

“I already know everything that happened today. To be granted such an emblem by the three elders is indeed not without reason.

It is also a blessing for our Heavenly Dragon Race.

Please sit down and watch the Heavenly Dragon Gathering with me.”

The Heavenly Dragon Lord paused for a moment and looked at Qiu Yaoyao and Su Jingzhen again.

He smiled and said, “However, young Friend Su, you might want to prepare yourself.

There will be too many people who want to challenge you.”

As he said this, there was a hint of teasing in his tone.

Obviously, as the leader, he also believed in the matter between Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao.

After all, the granting of the first sequence emblem of the Heavenly Dragon Race was enough to prove the matter.

In terms of identity and potential, he and Qiu Yaoyao were indeed the same.

“As members of the Heavenly Dragon Race, we are not afraid of a challenge!”

However, Su Jingzhen responded to the Heavenly Dragon Lord’s words with such a declaration.

His words showed a hint of dominance.

This kind of attitude earned the Heavenly Dragon Lord even more respect.

But for the people around, it was a surprise to see Su Jingzhen and Xuening sitting so openly next to Heavenly Dragon Lord.

Inevitably, there was a hint of suspicion in their hearts.

“It is said that the first sequence of the Heavenly Dragon Race actually has the same status as the Heavenly Dragon Lord.

So I can understand why Qiu Yaoyao can sit in that position.

But what about Su Jingzhen and the girl next to him? What are their credentials?”

At this moment, someone in the crowd couldn’t help but ask such a question.

This was also the common doubt in most people’s minds.

“Could it be that they, like Qiu Yaoyao, have also obtained the first sequence?”

“You really dare to think that.

Do you know what you’re saying? It’s the first sequence of the Heavenly Dragon Race, not some common roadside vegetable.

In this generation, there are only two people who have received the first sequence.

This is already a blessing for the Heavenly Dragon Race.

In the long history of the Heavenly Dragon Race, there might not even be one person who could obtain the first sequence.”

“Yes, now that Elder Taixu has just broken through to the Ascending Realm.

If the Heavenly Dragon Race also has four young people in this generation who are qualified to receive the first sequence, then other forces in the Luo River region will have no chance to surpass them.”

“In my opinion, this is just because the Heavenly Dragon Lord is amiable, and Su Jingzhen and the girl are taking advantage of their relationship with Elder Taixu and Qiu Yaoyao.

That is why they are sitting there arrogantly and disrespectfully.”

“…”

Of course, Su Jingzhen couldn’t have imagined that just sitting with Qiu Yaoyao and the Heavenly Dragon Lord would cause such intense discussions.

Not surprisingly, he once again received countless hostile glances.

This time, not only from the outside forces, but also from many core disciples of the Second Sequence.

In the eyes of these Heavenly Dragon Race core disciples, Su Jingzhen was too arrogant.

Shortly after that, under the guidance of the Heavenly Dragon Lord, numerous Heavenly Dragon Race disciples once again ascended to the dozens of arenas.

However, they were still those below the Nascent Soul stage.

These young people were not affected by the previous events in the Beast Pavilion.

They were still energetically showing off.

After all, the Heavenly Dragon Assembly was the most important stage for them.

This segment went on for several hours.

Until the sun began to set.

The Heavenly Dragon Race disciples who were lucky enough to be selected for this round of the competition below the Nascent Soul stage had all completed their process.

However, the next segment was still closely related to the competition.

But the participants had changed to those at the level of Nascent Soul, Soul Formation, Divine Intent, and Unity.

And within this level, it was up to the participants to voluntarily challenge each other.

This was different from the previous young generation, who were arranged to enter the stages one by one.

Of course, this was the most anticipated part.

In this segment, the geniuses from powers like the Yan Clan and the Ji Clan could also challenge any core disciple of the Heavenly Dragon Race at the same level.

This was a long-standing tradition and also a way for cultivators to validate each other.

“Since it’s this kind of format, Brother Su, you might be busy today.”

After learning the specific rules, Xuening gave Su Jingzhen a teasing smile.

Su Jingzhen helplessly shrugged her shoulders: “What else can I do?

We’re already sitting here. If someone of the same level challenges me, I can’t refuse, can I?”

At this moment, Su Jingzhen had already come to terms with the situation.

Since he couldn’t keep a low profile when he first arrived in the Luo River region, he might as well go all out.

At this time, the Heavenly Dragon Lord stepped forward again.

“Over the years, I think everyone knows the rules of our Heavenly Dragon Race’s Heavenly Dragon Conference.

I won’t waste time repeating them today.

Now, all the arenas are open as before. If any of you are ready to make an impact, please go on the stage directly.”

“Of course, I have to repeat one point, this Heavenly Dragon Gathering is just a friendly competition, so it should be limited to freindly sparring, do not let the sparring affect our harmony.”

The last part was just a formality.

Everyone knew that fights between cultivators, especially powerful ones, would never truly be a matter of restraint.

As soon as his words fell, dozens of people flew directly to the arenas.

What surprised everyone was that among the forty-nine people who ascended first, over thirty were at the peak of the Nascent Soul level.

“I am Mu Yichun, at the peak of Nascent Soul, challenging the core disciple Su Jingzhen of the Heavenly Dragon Race!”

“I am Mu Yiliang, at the peak of Nascent Soul, challenging Core Disciple Su Jingzhen of Heavenly Dragon Race!”

“I am Ji Mo, at the peak of Nascent Soul, challenging core disciple Su Jingzhen of Heavenly Dragon Race!”

“…”

And these over thirty peak Nascent Soul cultivators all wanted to challenge Su Jingzhen.

Among them, nearly twenty were from the Mu Clan.

The intention behind this situation was obvious at a glance.

Even though these challengers knew that Su Jingzhen had recently defeated many Divine Intent Realm disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Race.

He had even broken through a battle formation consisting of sixteen Divine Intent cultivators.

They were all elite cultivators of these great powers at this level.

Even though they knew about Su Jingzhen’s accomplishments, they didn’t think they were inferior to him.

Moreover, the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Mu Clan had received considerable benefits from Mu Yijin.

Seeing this scene, most people’s gazes turned back to Su Jingzhen.

Some sighed, some gloated, and some were worried…

“I thought that Su Jingzhen would be the target of many challenges.

But I didn’t expect so many to challenge him among the first group to enter the stage.

And if I remember correctly, in the Heavenly Dragon Assembly, if the challenged is at the same level, they cannot refuse unless they want to lose face and admit defeat.

But since he’s in that position, it would be too humiliating to admit defeat.”

“Interesting, today’s events are really interesting.

The prodigy of the Mu Clan still can’t let go of Qiu Yaoyao.

I’m sure the people he’s arranged are not just the ones we see now.

At the very least, they could probably wear down Su Jingzhen!”

“…”

Everyone’s curiosity grew even stronger.

They watched Su Jingzhen with great interest.

“Brother Su…”

Xuening beside him looked serious.

She had been gloating earlier, but she hadn’t expected such a situation.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Only Su Jingzhen remained calm, his face still full of an amiable smile.

“Hehe, Nascent Soul cultivators… that might not be enough.”
