Phi-Fic Chapter 193 Attaining the Dao as a True Immortal
Chapter 193 Attaining the Dao as a True Immortal
The Yanhuang Secret Realm has already undergone a major purge.
Jiang Yang's dozen or so disciples have now all become patriarch-level figures, each stationed in other secret realms, purging all the alien cultivators in these realms and reclaiming the holy land from the shroud of darkness and eeriness.
The ancestral land of the East has finally regained its peace.
On this day, Jiang Yang made a momentous decision, summoning all his disciples back and declaring to them, "You must inform all immortal races that all existing cultivators above the Foundation Establishment stage must enter the various secret realms for cultivation and are forbidden from remaining in the mortal world of Blue Star!"
A single piece of news caused a tremendous change in the entire ancestral land.
Jiang Yang did this to guard against the four dark cultivators, because the higher a cultivator's cultivation level, the more easily they are corrupted by the darkness of their enemies. Before he passed away, he did not want to see this happen and wanted to do one last thing for the Immortal Clan.
Jiang Yang's disciples all immediately sprang into action.
In just over a decade, almost all the cultivators of the Eastern Ancestral Land were transferred to various secret realms, leaving only a few Qi Refining Realm cultivators who maintained some contact with the secret realms. As time went on, the contact was gradually lost.
In the ancestral land of Blue Star, there are not many cultivators left, and the population is also not large. After the war with the demon race ended a few years ago, the population has been slowly increasing, but it does not exceed one hundred million.
Nowadays, even cultivation has become very difficult for the immortal people, because even the most basic Qi cultivation scriptures have been plundered by the demon race. Such ancient heritage has been almost completely destroyed by the four dark cultivators and the Flood Dragon King.
However, more than a hundred years have passed.
Entering the 3000s.
The great immortal people struggled to grow upwards on this land, and the will to revive was engraved in their bones, leading them into a more civilized modern society. They established their own country, united closely, taking root downwards and growing upwards.
People were unable to cultivate, and no immortal spirits descended, yet the population exploded over the past hundred years.
Because the immortal race has been tarnished.
Although the population has exploded, these newly born mortals not only lack innate primordial spirits, but their physical bodies are also impure, filled with impurities, and have mixed blood with demons, making them different from the immortals of the past.
Furthermore, over the past hundred years, demon cultivators have infiltrated the Eastern Ancestral Land, committing evil deeds and harming the immortals, attempting to incite internal division and conflict and undermine the unity of the immortals. As a result, the beautiful environment that the immortals once created has been completely changed.
The ancient secret realms have been completely severed from the heavens and earth, cutting off all passages to the Blue Star. Now, only through extremely special methods can one enter these secret realms.
Meanwhile, development continues in various secret realms.
As almost all the cultivators on Earth were relocated to various secret realms, over time, decades or even centuries passed. The immortal race began to develop and explore the secret realm areas outside the major holy lands, and as a result, one sect or faction after another emerged in these secret realms.
The year is 3092 on Earth.
On this day, Jiang Yang summoned all his disciples once again.
Now, he wears a simple gray coat, and he is very old. His body is hunched and withered, his face is covered with wrinkles like tree bark, and his hair is completely white, which is a sign of depleted blood and energy.
"Master, we have killed the Flood Dragon King!"
Inside the rear hall of the sacred site of Yanhuang.
Jiang Yang's disciples sat on the futons in front of him. The three in front were his three main disciples. Not long ago, they had stormed into the depths of the East Sea and killed the Dragon King who had been seriously injured and escaped years ago.
Jiang Yang concluded by saying, "Chongwu, my days are numbered. Try your best to communicate with Kunlun."
Jiang Yang's eldest disciple was a powerful middle-aged man known as Chongwu. His brows were furrowed with imposing presence, his long hair tied back, and he exuded a powerful aura of authority. At this moment, Chongwu's eyes were slightly red as he clasped his hands in a fist salute to Jiang Yang: "Understood, Master. We will."
Jiang Yang's second disciple, a middle-aged man clad in golden armor, exuded a powerful and valiant aura. Known as Zi Yan, he clasped his hands in a fist salute to Jiang Yang and said, "Master, the environment of heaven and earth has suddenly undergone a drastic change. The spiritual energy has vanished, and the environment on Blue Star is no longer suitable for cultivation."
Jiang Yang nodded and coughed, saying, "The world has changed. Our ancestral land has suffered this calamity because our immortal race has declined, and the environment has naturally changed accordingly!"
Jiang Yang's third disciple, a tall and upright young man in his early thirties, nicknamed Fuxue, asked, "Master, should we take action and eliminate the demons and their descendants in our ancestral land?"
Jiang Yang shook his head: "You just need to guard the various secret realms. Those demons are creations of darkness and strangeness, and they can't be killed off completely. Even if we kill them now, other demons will appear and harm the immortal race. All you can do is enlighten the immortal race that has been shrouded in darkness, so that we can rise again and maintain the order of the various secret realms. The rest is up to you."
The three disciples nodded: "We understand."
As Jiang Yang lay dying, although his body was hunched and emaciated, his whole body was glowing and exuding a divine aura. His life force was waning, which was a sign that he was about to pass away peacefully.
Jiang Yang waved his hand at them: "You can all leave now!"
Many disciples cried out in grief: "Master!"
Jiang Yang repeated, "Chongwu, you can all leave!"
"Disciple understands!" Chongwu suppressed his emotions, stood up, bowed, and then left with his fellow disciples.
The doors to the rear hall slowly closed, and all was quiet. The entire hall was glowing, filled with a soft, sacred, and solemn atmosphere.
Just then, deep within the back mountains of the Yanhuang Secret Realm, a ray of light appeared, illuminating the entire sky above the Yanhuang Secret Realm. The sacred and dazzling light covered the entire Yanhuang Holy Land.
Suddenly, extraordinary phenomena erupted, magnificent and vast.
True dragons roared, phoenixes danced, and unicorns trod the sky. One after another, flowers of the Great Dao bloomed, filling the heavens.
A mystical aura swirled, purple clouds lingered, and colorful light rippled.
At this moment, all the cultivators were utterly shocked.
Chongwu and the others, tears streaming down their faces, cried out, "Master!"
A supreme voice appeared from the darkness, the Immortal Emperor's will of Yun Chen enveloping the area, his words becoming law: "Fellow Daoist Jiang Yang, your cultivation has reached perfection, go and become an immortal."
Everyone looked up at the sky, witnessing this breathtaking scene.
Meanwhile, on the outside world, on Earth, after hundreds of years of recuperation, the Immortal Clan has recovered.
However, with the drastic changes in the environment, they can no longer cultivate, and their lifespan has been greatly reduced. The immortals, now shrouded in dust, have established the nation of Hua, the nation of all immortals, on their ancestral land in the east.
Meanwhile, over the course of more than a hundred years, other countries also emerged on other continents, such as the Coal Country in the distant land of Fusang, the Eastern Kingdom in the land of Yingzhou, the six countries in various regions of Western Europe, and the Australian Kingdom in the land of Chitu. These were all countries with a history of more than a hundred years, with great demons in charge, whom they worshipped as gods.
Three years later, in 3095, at the spring equinox.
On this day, an extraordinary phenomenon occurred in the sky. The entire sky above China was bathed in a dazzling golden light, a sign of good fortune and divine solemnity. Many immortals and mortals, shrouded in dust, were filled with curiosity and exclaimed in amazement.
This magical scene was captured on many people's phones; several beams of light fell to the earth and then disappeared.
On the same day, in China.
Six children were born in succession.
A baby boy is born in a hospital in Gangnam Province.
The baby boy was born quietly, without crying or fussing.
His young parents held him, their faces beaming with joy and affection.
Fifteen years later, on a certain day.
The boy's mother died in an accident, but no matter how they investigated, they never found anything. One day when he was sixteen, his father suddenly died of an illness. On his eighteenth birthday, he was walking down the street in a gloomy mood when a large truck crashed into him... Overtly and covertly, the immortal race was once again afflicted by alien races.
"Come with me up the mountain for three years of cultivation!"
A middle-aged monk appeared, not only saving the orphaned child but also forcibly taking him away.
Three years later, the young man received a complete education from the immortal clan and achieved great success. He was then expelled from the mountain by the immortal clan elders. There, he met a beautiful young woman who, to his surprise, was also a cultivator with considerable cultivation.
After a brief exchange, neither side could gain the upper hand.
"My name is Qingchuan, and my given name is Yunchuan. What's your name?"
The other party replied: "Qinghe, whose given name is Xu Ya."
"Whom did you learn this from?"
"No comment."
"You know all the supernatural powers I do."
"That's what I wanted to ask you."
That's how the two met and started traveling together.
