Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

BOOM!

In that instant, the entire Staircase of Inner Inquiry shook with a tremor. Everyone clearly saw a colorful portal opening towards Jiang Chengxuan.

And this time, everyone was certain that it was not any illusory object, but a real, tangible colorful portal.

What lay behind that colorful portal, however, remained unknown.

Curiosity about what lay behind that portal filled everyone’s minds.

They all wanted to find out.

But at this moment, Jiang Chengxuan showed no hesitation.

He stepped forward, and his figure immediately disappeared behind the colorful portal, vanishing from everyone’s sight.

“Damn it!”

The cultivators from Eastern End and Central Plain, and the various demon lords all had very ugly expressions on their faces.

In contrast, those close to Jiang Chengxuan, like Shen Ruyan and others, were all smiling.

Even Blue Moon and her companion, a cultivator named Daoist Kong Ming, cupped their fists and congratulated Shen Ruyan and the others.

At the same time.

As Jiang Chengxuan crossed the colorful portal, he arrived in an ancient palace. Inside the palace.

A man adorned in a robe embroidered with a hundred heavenly dragons stood there quietly.

Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes narrowed.

However, before he could react, the man turned around.

This person was handsome and exuded an otherworldly aura.

Upon seeing Jiang Chengxuan enter, a warm smile appeared on his face.

“You’ve arrived.”

Jiang Chengxuan was extremely shocked.

This was because he would never have thought that he would actually meet the master of this place, Sage Dragonmaster.

As if sensing Jiang Chengxuan’s shock, Sage Dragonmaster could not help but smile.

“You need not be so surprised. My true self ascended to the higher realms ten thousand years ago.

What remains here is merely a shadow of my consciousness.”

“A shadow of consciousness?”

Jiang Chengxuan was even more shocked.

He hadn’t imagined that a person’s consciousness shadow could exist for so long.

Moreover, in appearance and aura, it seemed hardly different from the real person.

Could it be that cultivators, upon breaking through to Void Returning, all possess such incredible abilities?

As if seeing through Jiang Chengxuan’s confusion, Sage Dragonmaster chuckled again and said,

“The reason this consciousness shadow of mine can exist for so long is because of the array of this ruin site.

Otherwise, even as a Void Returning cultivator, let alone a consciousness shadow, even a separated avatar wouldn’t be able to exist for so long.”

I see.

Jiang Chengxuan was enlightened.

However, new doubts quickly arose in his mind.

If it was the array of this ruin site that allowed this consciousness shadow to exist for so long, then what level was the actual array of this ruin site?

But this time, the consciousness shadow of Sage Dragonmaster did not answer his question. Instead, he shifted the topic to Jiang Chengxuan himself.

“Since you were able to pass through the Staircase of Inner Inquiry and appear here, it means that your aptitude, comprehension, temperament, and potential are all very good.

Especially your temperament, which is quite admirable.

Given this, there are some things that I can entrust to you.”

As he spoke, a strange, silver stone appeared in the hand of Sage Dragonmaster.

Seeing this stone, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes once again showed a hint of confusion.

With his experience and knowledge, he had no idea what this stone was that Sage Dragonmaster now held.

Sage Dragonmaster seemed to have no intention of keeping him guessing.

He immediately said, “This stone is known as the Realm Resonance Stone. Just place this object on the Ascension Platform in the lower realm, and it will resonate with the higher realms.

Within a short period of time, the Ascension Platform will be bathed in the light of ascension.

At that time, as long as a cultivator’s cultivation reaches the late stage of Soul Transformation, they will be able to withstand the pressure of ascension and ascend to the higher realms.”

Such an incredible object.

Jiang Chengxuan was profoundly shocked.

He never dreamed that there would be such a thing in the possession of Sage Dragonmaster.

The Realm Resonance Stone.

Isn’t this the only hope for their ascension?

As if sensing Jiang Chengxuan’s thoughts, Sage Dragonmaster’s expression became more serious.

He continued, “Although having this Realm Resonance Stone, combined with an Ascension Platform in the lower realm, allows cultivators to attempt ascension to the higher realms, there is one condition: the Ascension Platform in the lower realm must be in good condition.

Otherwise, let alone attracting the light of ascension, even the resonance with the higher realms will not be possible.”

With that, Sage Dragonmaster paused for a moment before adding,

“According to my calculations, not long from now, the entire Dustless Lower Sphere’s ascension passageway might encounter an accident.

The Nine Essences Cultivation World will face a great calamity.

If you wish to ascend to the higher realms, in addition to needing this Realm Resonance Stone in my hand, you must also find a way to repair the Ascension Platform.”

Sage Dragonmaster’s ability to predict future events deeply shocked Jiang Chengxuan.

Being able to foresee changes thousands, or even tens of thousands of years ahead, was incredible.

And where exactly was this Ascension Platform he mentioned?

Jiang Chengxuan had never heard of it before.

Even Shen Ruyan seemed not to be very clear about this matter.

Most importantly, according to the words of Sage Dragonmaster, it seemed that the Ascension Platform of their Nine Essences Cultivation World had long been damaged.

If he and Shen Ruyan wished to ascend in the future, their first task would be to repair that Ascension Platform.

“May I ask Senior Dragonmaster, where is the Ascension Platform of our Nine Essences Cultivation World currently located?

If we wish to repair it, how should we go about it?”

Jiang Chengxuan immediately asked Sage Dragonmaster with a serious expression and a respectful bow.

Seeing Jiang Chengxuan’s reaction, Sage Dragonmaster nodded approvingly. “Worthy of someone who passed the Staircase of Inner Inquiry, your temperament is indeed incomparable to ordinary people.”

Sage Dragonmaster was well aware that for most people, the revelations he had just shared might have led to despair or at least hesitation and fear of facing reality.

However, Jiang Chengxuan was different from the ordinary.

His primary concern was the most critical aspect – the Ascension Platform and the corresponding method of repair.

At that moment, Sage Dragonmaster produced another item – a jade slip.

He said, “Young friend, I’ve already recorded the location of the Ascension Platform in the Nine Essences Cultivation World and the corresponding repair method in this jade slip.

If you truly intend to do so, you can follow the instructions recorded in this jade slip to find the location of the Ascension Platform and attempt to repair it. This is a matter that would benefit countless cultivators in this world. Should you succeed, you would acquire tremendous merit.

I no longer have the time for such endeavors.

Thus, I leave these items as a way to repay the nurturing of this world.

I also promise you that if you succeed, I, Dragonmaster, will owe you a great favor.

Should you ascend to the higher realm and need assistance, I will surely not refuse.”

After saying this, Sage Dragonmaster pushed the jade slip and the Realm Resonance Stone towards Jiang Chengxuan.

Jiang Chengxuan, without any hesitation, accepted these items.

He understood that his greatest gain from entering this ruin was not only passing the Staircase of Inner Inquiry, which elevated his temperament and gave him a clear direction for his future path, but also acquiring the jade slip and the Realm Resonance Stone from Sage Dragonmaster.

The latter allowed him to know the future of the cultivators of the Nine Essences Cultivation World.

At least he had a clear goal and hope.

He was no longer at a loss.

Even after he cultivated to the late-stage Soul Formation, he still knew what to do.

“Furthermore, take these small gifts as a gift from me.”

Suddenly, Sage Dragonmaster waved his hand.

Three streams of light instantly fell into Jiang Chengxuan’s hands.

They were a Celestial Stardust, a nearly transparent flame, and a Level 6 Heavenly Earth Spiritual Root.

The Celestial Stardust was a top Level 6 earth-elemental treasure.

A single grain weighs as much as a miniature star.

It is a crucial material for Jiang Chengxuan at the moment.

With it, his Deep Earth Halberd could advance to a Level 6 Pure Yang True Treasure.

The nearly transparent flame is also immensely beneficial for Jiang Chengxuan.

It is the Pure Yin True Fire.

With it, his Yin and Yang Divine Flame divine power would truly undergo a transformation.

If he threw it into the Eternal Scorching Sun Furnace, if he operated it well, there was even a chance that his Eternal Scorching Sun Furnace would undergo a transformation.

As for the last Level 6 Heavenly Earth Spiritual Root.

It is the Longevity Peach Tree, blooming every thousand years, fruiting in a thousand years, and maturing in a thousand years.

A cultivator consuming its fruit can instantly gain 3,600 years of lifespan.

Although each cultivator can only consume this Longevity Peach Fruit once in their lifetime,

The 3,600 years of lifespan it grants surpasses any other life-extending spiritual item.

With it, his loved ones could perhaps accompany him and Shen Ruyan for a much longer time.

Storing these three items, Jiang Chengxuan then bowed to Sage Dragonmaster in gratitude:

“Thank you, Elder Dragonmaster, for bestowing these treasures.

I wonder if Elder has any sects left outside?

If so, perhaps you could tell me.

If there’s a need, I will definitely do my best to protect it.”

Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, Sage Dragonmaster couldn’t help but smile and shake his head.

“After a myriad of years, even if I had left sects, they might no longer exist.

But since you asked with such intention, I won’t be formal with you.

Ten thousand years ago, in the Nine Essences Cultivation World, I indeed left a sect.

It is called the Tianhe Sect.

If this sect still exists, you might, depending on the situation, offer some assistance.

If it no longer exists, or has strayed into evil paths, you can cleanse the sect for me.

Much appreciated.”

After these final words, the figure of Sage Dragonmaster began to fade.

Until he completely disappeared..
