On this cold winter day, two people walked down from the Purple Sun Sect. They were Wang Lin and Liu Jinbiao.
After a year of silence, Wang Lin silently cultivated while thinking about his hometown. His wood essence had reached completion, and he was very close to forming his true body.
His Thunder True Body had reached completion in the Dong Lin Sect, so he didn't need to comprehend any other special essences.
As for his five-elemental true body, his wood essence was close to forming his true body. Only the metal essence was still at small completion. Wang Lin knew that if he had the Celestial Ancestor Sword fragment, his metal essence would reach completion.
Once the metal essence was powerful, even if it wasn't his true body, the five elements would be complete. That would be enough for Wang Lin's cultivation to go from the mid stage of Void Tribulant to the late stage of Void Tribulant, the Golden Exalt.
Finally, there was the ethereal essence. After life and death, karma, and true and false, Wang Lin comprehended the fourth ethereal essence, reincarnation.
He had only comprehended a sliver of the reincarnation essence, but it was like opening a new door and obtaining an essence seed. He would need to comprehend it again and again before it would reach its full power.
"Golden Exalt cultivation isn't difficult … What's difficult is the ethereal essence … The trip to the imperial city is the place the Celestial Ancestor left behind. Perhaps I will feel the aura of the Celestial Ancestor there …" Wang Lin walked into the wind and snow.
The distance from the Purple Sun Sect in the Eastern Continent to the imperial city was very far. Even if an ordinary cultivator flew at full speed, it would be very difficult unless they used a transfer array.
Wang Lin's figure was covered by the wind and snow. He merged with the world and used Spatial Bending to leave the Eastern Continent with Liu Jinbiao and the sea dragon.
Behind the two of them, Empyrean Venerate Gu Ya silently stood outside the mountain gate of the Purple Sun Sect. Beside him were the two little girls, who had reluctance in their eyes as they watched the figures disappear into the distance.
"Will he come back …" Dolly was a little depressed.
"Will we still be able to see him …?" Han Han looked into the distance and asked softly.
"He … should … I've already given him a jade slip. Once he encounters a crisis in the Central Continent that he can't solve, you'll know immediately.
This is our agreement with him. At that time, we will need Grand Empyrean Gemini to help. "Gu Ya let out a sigh.
"Yes, that's for sure. Since little Wang Lin has chosen us, we can't let anyone bully him!" Wa Wa looked at Han Han beside her. The two little girls nodded solemnly.
The Central Region was the center of the entire land of the Immortals. It was incredibly vast and was also the place with the densest amount of Immortal Qi. It could be said that it was a place blessed with outstanding people. At the core of the Central Region was the Imperial City.
This city was as large as a continent. It was the most majestic city on the Immortal Astral Continent!
Even the imperial cities of the 36 countries of the Ancient clan couldn't compare to the celestial city. This city was also known as the ancestral city!
There was only one sect in the ancestral city, and that was the sect of the Imperial Teacher, Shang Daoxuan. This sect had been passed down for generations and had fused with the descendants of the Celestial Ancestor. If one fell, they fell, and if one rose, they rose!
The entire sect had a different era of Celestial Emperors and different names. Every generation of Celestial Emperors would gain the loyalty of the sect after succeeding the position of Celestial Emperor. Furthermore, after the awakening of the Celestial Ancestor's bloodline and inheriting the title of Celestial Eight Extremes, they could choose a new name for the sect.
This generation's Celestial Emperor, Lian Daozhen, named this mysterious sect the Dao Sect!
The sect master of this generation's Dao Sect was the Imperial Teacher, Shang Daoxuan!
Shang Daoxuan's cultivation was unfathomable, and his divination ability was earth-shattering. He could fight against the three Imperial Teachers of the Ancient clan by himself!
The Dao Sect was in the ancestral city, but no one knew where it was. Since ancient times, very few people had found it. However, most secrets in the world couldn't resist the passage of time. Over the countless years, people had many speculations about the location of this mysterious sect.
Some said that the sect was in a void that overlapped with the ancestral city.
Some said that the sect was in a spatial rift in the ancestral city, and the entrance was inside the imperial palace.
Some said that the sect was deep under the ancestral city.
There were many speculations, and perhaps one of them was true.
The ancestral city was divided into four sub-cities: north, south, east, and west. The central area was the forbidden area of the celestial clan. This was the imperial palace, and only those with permission could enter this forbidden area.
There were many mansions in the North, South, East, and West Cities. Each of these mansions represented a force. They weren't sects, but they were more powerful than most sects.
Among them, the four king mansions were the strongest, and they were in charge of the four sub-cities. The northern city's Li mansion, the southern city's Luo mansion, the western city's Shan mansion, and the eastern city's Meng mansion were like four behemoths that shocked the five provinces.
In addition to all of this, there was another powerful force inside the ancestral city that could compete with the imperial power. It was a mountain located between the East and West Cities. This mountain was called the Imperial Mountain!
Mount Emperor!
One mountain, one person, and one Grand Empyrean Jiu Ti made the entire ancestral city and the imperial palace feel like 10,000 mountains were pressing down on them, making it difficult for them to breathe.
Many people speculated that the purpose of the mysterious Dao Sect's existence was to fight against Mount Emperor, who was gradually suppressing the imperial power!
This was the pattern of the entire ancestral city. Few outsiders knew about this in detail, and only Grand Empyreans could see it so clearly. During the year that Wang Lin was at the Purple Yang Sect, Grand Empyrean Gemini used the soul fusion spell to retrieve the memories of the ancestral city and let Wang Lin know about it.
There were five great provinces in the land of Immortals, and there were seventy-two smaller continents. Because of that, the four seasons changed, and they were slightly different. For example, when the freezing wind and snow blew from the Eastern Province and enveloped the Central Province in snow, several months had already passed.
This was the first snow in the ancestral city this year. The snow was very heavy and covered a small portion of the ancestral city. The eastern gate was covered in snow, and even vision became blurry.
There were no mortals in this city. This was one of the few places in the land of immortals where only cultivators existed. Because of this, the celestial Qi in the city was too dense, it had already formed a celestial pressure. It was impossible for mortals to survive here.
On this day, outside the eastern gate of the ancestral city, there was an endless plain covered in snow. A figure wearing a raincoat and a hat walked over step by step against the wind and snow.
The hat covered his face, so it was impossible to see his appearance. However, he didn't look old, more like a young man.
However, even the violent wind and snow couldn't blow away the ancient aura around him.
As he slowly closed in and was tens of thousands of kilometers away from the ancestral city, the person in the raincoat stopped. He slowly raised his head. His gaze seemed to penetrate the layers of snow as he looked at the majestic city in the distance.
"Celestial Emperor … I'm coming …" Wang Lin looked into the distance and allowed the snowflakes to land on his coat. The snowflakes landed on his back and gradually covered his footprints.
"This should be my last stop in the celestial clan … I'm going to find the madman and see if he still remembers me … From now on, I will have no more regrets."
Wang Lin silently pondered and lowered his head. While the hat covered the wind and snow, it also covered his face. He silently walked forward step by step.
He didn't have to come to the ancestral city. He knew that this place was very dangerous, but he still came.
There are some things in life that a person can do, should do, and must do for the sake of having no regrets!
Some people pursue without regrets for the sake of having no regrets in their relationship. Some people persevere on this path for the sake of having no regrets in their friendship.
Most people do it for the sake of their loved ones. Even if they face a cliff, they will rely on their hands to slowly climb over.
Wang Lin valued relationships. Family, love, and friendship were all things he cherished. For him, he had very few relationships in his lonely life … Losing one meant that he had truly lost them.
The madman had shown him kindness. He had spent 60 years with the madman in the dream dao in Suzaku, and he couldn't leave without seeing him. He wanted to see how his old friend was doing.
With this thought in mind, he came.
The wind blew by his body and the snow blocked his path. At dusk, Wang Lin arrived outside the eastern gate of the ancestral city. He stood there, and compared to the majestic city, he was like an ant.
There were no guards at the gate like in the mortal world. The ancestral city never needed guards. There were two Grand Empyreans here, and there was the mysterious Dao Sect. Aside from Grand Empyrean Jidao, not even Xuan Luo would casually come here.
At dusk, the sky was hazy and the snow was even stronger. Wang Lin stepped through the eastern gate and landed inside the ancestral city.
A powerful celestial pressure rushed out when Wang Lin stepped through the gate. This celestial pressure was enough to make a mortal's body collapse, but a cultivator could barely withstand it. If one cultivated here, the effect would be several times better than cultivating in a famous mountain or even some big sects.
However, this celestial pressure had no effect on Wang Lin. He no longer needed to forcibly cultivate this celestial spiritual energy. Wang Lin walked on the city and looked around.
Within the snowstorm, there were quite a few people in the city, all of them hurrying back and forth. Even though they had cultivation bases, they didn't fly. Instead, they walked like mortals.
"Even a dragon has to coil up in the ancestral city. Even a tiger has to lie down in the ancestral city. Even an Empyrean Exalt with supreme cultivation must abide by the rules here … Is that so …" There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes.
"Not including me!"
Monday, please recommend me!!
