Chapter 213 - One Trillion Heavenly Immortals, Reuniting with Qingxian
The text formed right in front of him was from the Sect Master.
The relocation of the people of Zhong Province was originally a huge task but the resettlement was completed in the shortest time through the cooperation of many experts
After that, Liu Changkong came over on behalf of Tianyuan School. After negotiating to reform the orders, he sent over the rules and regulations to Chuyang Peak’s to go through.
Now, even an idiot knew that Chuyang Peak was actually the real anchor. Anything related to the future, as well as life and death would have to be aligned with Chuyang Peak.
Even if they no longer paid attention to the mundane things of the world, if the action would result in great changes, the plan would still need to be gone through by them over at Chuyang Peak.
“They seem to be understanding!” Linglong took a glance and couldn’t help laughing, “With Jiuyang Sect taking the role as the leader, they preach to the world in the name of Jiuyang Sect for all the people to take on cultivations, allowing legacies to be continuously inherited and to make sure that further improvements will be continuous. It is also in order to cope with the impending catastrophes in the future.”
“Overall, it’s not bad!” Jiang Ming nodded in agreement and continued, “Just let them be. However much they make a fuss of things, it’s all trivial matters but at least this time there’s order to things.”
Linglong very much agreed to this.
However, the current conditions for cultivation were now above average.
Looking to the North, Xi Yao had already broken through and entered the Paradis Realm.
Chang Yiming’s cultivation base had also reached the pinnacle of Nascent Soul Realm and would step into the Primal Spirit Realm very soon.
“Senior brother, I already started to sense the aura from the Infinite Realm Battlefield. We will soon descend there. Let’s first make a plan!” Linglong stood up, gazing into the depth of the sky.
Without the stars in the skies as well as the disappearance of the moon and sun, the sky above looked extremely strange.
Beyond the thin layer of membrane were endless torrents of time and space, full of boundless dangers.

She turned around, sat on Jiang Ming’s lap and asked: “What if…… What if we lose this time? What will we do?”
“Well, of course our lives will be the first priority.” Jiang Ming smiled and continued, “Don’t worry. I’m not a pedantic old man and I’m not going to die trying to save just that one mountain. If it really gets to that point, I’ll just take the entire Eastern Region into my inner world and make a run for it.”
“I was really afraid that you would die forcing yourself to protect the mountain!” Linglong smiled and was relieved.
She laid down onto Jiang Ming, enjoying the rare silence.
Jiang Ming closed his eyes as his subconscious sank into his inner world.
Currently, the whole inner world had been evolving rapidly.
After he took in that small portion of medicinal field that was once a part of the Heaven Court, he planted it in the middle of the vast parchment of land. The soil below was Preternatural Soil which allowed the many immortal herbs to grow even more vigorously.
The breath of natural aura was integrated into the atmosphere and absorbed by the origin, causing the evolution of the inner world to skyrocket.
Vitality was the main core for a world.
The battlefield ruin that was refined was also rapidly absorbed and digested by his inner world.
‘If it goes on like this, it won’t be long before the inner world derives the true immortal laws! I can wait no longer! Otherwise, once the true immortal laws are derived, I will automatically enter the True Immortal Realm. That would not be as perfect as I wanted.’
As Jiang Ming’s thoughts raced through his mind, he recovered himself and made ample preparation. Opening his eyes, he pinched Linglong’s delicate nose as she was laying on top of him and softly muttered, “I need to leave for a while”
“Alright, I’ll hold the fort!” Linglong startled as she turned over to the side.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon!” Jiang Ming said, as a token suddenly appeared in front of him, glowing faintly as his figure disappeared without a trace.
With a flash of light from the Supreme Order, he plunged into the endless time and space.
This time, he did not hide the fact that he had a Supreme Order.
“That token…” Linglong couldn’t help but laugh, “It turns out that Senior Brother has obtained a similar inheritance to mine. No wonder he is improving so quickly!”
Inside the Supreme Pagoda, Jiang Ming appeared on top of a piece of land suspended in the endless void.
No matter how you looked at it, the place seemed to be the remnants after a world’s destruction.
Suddenly, a huge and incomparable voice started to echo from the surrounding: “Jiang Ming, congratulations on entering the Immortal Realm. The assessment will now be carried out. Only by passing the assessment, can you enter the Immortal Realm Supreme Pagoda.”
“There is one item in the content of the assessment! Corresponding to your cultivation realm, trillion of Heavenly Immortals in the Infinite Realms are ranked in terms of combat power, the ten-thousandth person will be used as a template to create an opponent. Kill the opponent and the assessment is passed. Fail the assessment and the Supreme Order will disappear. Please choose your Immortal Soldier. Tips: Immortal Soldiers are up to level 12.”
“Jiang Ming of the Human Race, we wish you good luck.”
As the sound disappeared, a screen appeared right in front of Jiang Ming with all kinds of Immortal Weapons listed on it. He randomly chose a long sword and with a flick of his finger, the sword broke.
He smiled casually and lost interest.
‘A trillion Heavenly Immortals, choosing the ten-thousandth as the combat template!’
Jiang Ming felt a bit of a headache at the number. Such a number really caused him to despair.
A young man in white appeared right in front of him holding onto a long sword. After waiting 30 seconds for the barrier between them to disappear, the young man quickly lunged into action.
“Boundless Catastrophe! ”
As he muttered the words, sword lights swept through. An outburst of dark lightning,?three-fold heavenly flames, storms of destruction, absolute freezing confinement, soul annihilation technique and so on were bombarded at Jiang Ming simultaneously.
Even lines of blood veins surfaced on his body, bursting with terrifying power that merged into the slash.
It was an attempt to kill with a single slash.
Jiang Ming raised his arm lightly, his mana whistled, evoking the orders of Taichi, forming the Yin-Yang Dao Chart. As it rotated, the slash was blocked completely.
“The power of mind, the mana of the primordial spirit and the power of the physique merged into one that formed the eruption of power for this sword slash can even slay a Mystical Immortal!”
Jiang Ming had his preliminary assessment of the exchange.
The Mystical Immortal that he referred to was based on the Devil General that descended into Tianyuan World.
After understanding the power, he pinched his finger and the Yin-Yang qi turned into a strangling force, completely wiping out the opponent.
“Congratulations Jiang Ming! You have passed the assessment. You will now enter the Supreme Pagoda of the Immortal Realm!”
Right after the sound ended, the space around Jiang Ming collapsed and he reappeared in another place the very next moment.
It was a very vast plaza that was illuminated by all kinds of divine light. The Immortal Spirits were so dense that it seemed to almost materialize as it flowed slowly through the air.
On the right, there was a huge lake that was covered with lotus leaves and blossoming lotus flowers. Not, referring to it as a lotus platform seemed to be much more appropriate.
The lights from the lotus flower slowly turned with Dao fluctuation gathering on its surface.
Jiang Ming discovered that some of these lotus flowers even had people sitting cross-legged on top of it, conducting their cultivation. However, most of them were empty.
There were seven pagodas suspended on both sides in front of him where each of them had nine levels, surrounded by divine light that made it look extremely sacred. At the rear right, it was a Heavenly Ladder which was very wide that extended into the depth of the sky. The ladder had a platform for every nine steps as a dividing line, which should be the same as the previous Heavenly Ladder that he went on.
There were a lot of people scattered around the plaza as they gathered in twos or threes. Some of them were drinking, while others were chatting leisurely. The place looked quite idle.
Jiang Ming glanced around and got a general impression of the place.
Compared with the previous Supreme Pagoda, there were quite a lot of changes to it.
There were no longer the Heaven Battle Stage, Million Dao Chart and the Heavenly Monuments.
It was at this moment, a stream of messages flowed into his mind.
‘This is the inside of the Immortal Realm Supreme Pagoda. On the left is the Dao Enlightenment Sea. Upon entering it and landing on top of the lotus flowers, it allows you to submerge into the Dao Enlightenment state. Two hours is equivalent to one point. It’s a real state of enlightenment.’
‘The seven pagodas in the front right are called the Battle Towers. Each one corresponds to a realm from level 11, the Heavenly Immortal Realm, to level 17, the Quasi-Sage Realm. Breaking through the pagoda allows you to accumulate points. The Battle Tower that you enter corresponds to your own realm. Prior to the Golden Immortal Realm, one level is equivalent to one point; if you surpass your own realm, the points will be increased by tenfold; once you break through the Golden Immortal Battle Towers, your accumulated points will be multiplied by a hundred fold.’
‘The one on the rear right is still the Heavenly Ladder. Every ninth step is a different level and its points are similar to that of the Battle Tower. For example, if you step onto the first level, you will attain 1 point, the tenth level will be a ten point, and so on. Once you cross the Heavenly Ladder that corresponds to his Golden Immortal Realm, the points will increase by a hundred fold.’
‘Whether it is the Battle Tower or the Heavenly Ladder, all of them are based on the strongest figures of the same cultivation base across the Infinite Realms as the template.’
‘Taking the first Battle Tower for example, the strong cultivator that is ranked at the ten-thousandth among the one trillion Heavenly Immortals is used as the template for the first level of test; similarly, the first step of the Heavenly Ladder is based on the will of the person ranked at ten-thousandth.’
‘Then, it is constantly increased in strength. The combat power of the ninth level of the first Tower Pagoda is equivalent to the combat power of the cultivator ranked 100.’
‘The second tower is the True Immortal Battle Tower where it uses the ten-thousandth ranked expert among the one hundred billion True Immortals of the Infinite Realm as its template; the Mysterious Immortals corresponds to the ten thousandth of the ten billion cultivators; the Golden Immortal battle Tower corresponds to the one thousandth ranked cultivators among the one billion Golden Immortal Ranked experts; the Taiyi Battle Tower corresponds to the hundredth ranked expert as its template and so on.’
‘For each cultivation realm, a person has three chances to enter the Supreme Pagoda; once the chances are exhausted, it will cost you one point to enter again. If you have exhausted the three times and no longer have any points, you will lose the Supreme Order.’
‘When compared with the outside world, the time difference has also changed and is no longer the same as before: however long you stayed here will be equivalent to two hours in the outside world. Rather the flow of time here is a thousand times greater than that of the original flow of time. One year in the outside world is akin to a thousand years here.’
“There are more restrictions now. Points are even more important now and even the flow of time has changed!”
Jiang Ming sighed to himself and felt a familiar aura coming towards him.
Turning over to have a look, he couldn’t help but smile.
“Brother Jiang!” Ye Qingxian called out with a smile and hint of excitement. She clasped her fist to greet him and continued, “I knew you would definitely come here! I was right!”
“Miss Ye!” Jiang Ming clasped his fist to return her greeting.
The two looked at each other and smiled as one of them took out a set of sofas and sat down.
“Have you seen any other acquaintances?”Jiang Ming took out a bottle of immortal brew, poured a glass and handed it over to her before filling himself a glass as well.
They cheered and took a sip.
“No I didn’t!” Ye Qingxian shook her head and continued, “Each person only has three free chances of entering the place for every realm and not many people will want to waste it. This makes it extremely difficult to meet past Daoist friends. When you enter the Immortal Realm Supreme Pagoda, the tests are also much more difficult and the difficulty of accumulating points has also increased exponentially.”
“Did it?” Jiang Ming wondered. During the test earlier, he didn’t find it too difficult.
Ye Qingxian was speechless as she rolled her eyes at him. For a lady who was cold-shouldered towards others and had the poise of a queen, her act of rolling her eyes looked captivating instead.
She also felt that what she did was somewhat inappropriate as she collected herself and continued, “Who can even compare to you? In my world, I can overwhelm those of the same generation, but you, on the other hand, can overwhelm the whole Infinite Realm. You might think that it was easy, but to me, it’s not any simple matter. I almost lost the test and was even more desperate after successfully entering here.”
“What do you mean?” Jiang Ming was very surprised.
Ye Qingxian was able to join the Chatroom which spoke of some volume. However, she was now saying that she was in despair upon arriving here, which seemed to be quite abnormal.
She pointed to the Battle Tower and explained: “I am still on level 11 which is the Heavenly Immortal Realm. When I entered the First Battle Tower, I only passed the second level and got a total of two points.”
“No way!” Jiang Ming was taken aback.
“Yes way!” Ye Qingxian sighed and she continued, “Moreover, the combat power of everyone’s tests were of not much difference but the special abilities kept on changing. There isn’t much value in referring to each other on the tests. The first level is equivalent to the assessment when we first entered the Supreme Tower, the second level however is equivalent to twice the combat power of the first level and the third level would be doubled yet again! I heard that the last level, which is the ninth level, is extremely terrifying and can even slay the ordinary Golden Immortal Expert.”
“Isn’t the tenth level’s combat power supposed to be based on the hundredth ranked cultivator among the trillion Heavenly Immortals? How can it be so terrifying? No matter how many of these Heavenly Immortals that exist, they are still just Heavenly Immortals. Taking my universe for example, although there isn’t exactly one trillion Heavenly Immortals there, the numbers are quite close already.” Jiang Ming was puzzled.
Ye Qingxian on the other hand gave him a strange look.
