Transmigration After Becoming Love Saint-Chapter 522 - 177: Not in Heaven, but on Earth

Everything must come to an end.

Actually, the moment Wang Mu held the Sky-cutting Sword again, he knew it somehow foreshadowed something. The Divine Sword has a spirit; back then, it cut down Piao Miaoxu, and today, it cut down Dongfang Mu. Who knows if a curse had been placed? After a millennium, it finally brought about another cycle of its own. While observing Yan Qingwu’s thousand years of Cultivation, Wang Mu struggled in his heart and weighed his thoughts until he grasped the Sky-cutting Sword and attained Bright Enlightenment. For Heroine Yan, this thousand years of Cultivation needed an ending.

The Divine Sword pierced the heart.

The Sky-cutting Sword, containing tremendous power, was capable of cutting down not just a mere Golden Core, but even those in the stage of Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation with a single slash. It bore the Sword Intent to cleave through darkness and welcome the light. With the sword entering his body, his heart exhausted and weakened. Like crushing dry and decayed wood, not ten Golden Cores, not even a hundred, could bring him back. This kind of power was also within Wang Mu’s expectations. Indeed, it was the Divine Sword of my past. After a millennium of settling and receiving the baptism of merit, its power is peerless...

His life force was fading rapidly, like a shooting star, yet his countenance remained unchanged.

Through the haze of consciousness, Wang Mu did not believe he was committing suicide. It’s not I who am dying; it is Dongfang Mu, he thought. Wang Mu slowly closed his eyes. The Sky-cutting Sword was too powerful. A thousand years earlier, it slashed enemies; a thousand years later, it slashed its master.

In that moment, as the heart’s blood flowed upon the Divine Sword, the crimson light merged with the golden Sword light, creating two world-breaking dragons intent on bursting forth from his body and transforming into true Sword Spirits. The emotional aura contained within it was also obliterated, the Sword Intent becoming truly solitary and unique, as if symbolizing something. Nearby, the Green Frost Sword emitted a HISSING cry.

Elder Yan’s Primordial Spirit suddenly burst forth with a billion divine lights. The foremost missing piece was swiftly filled with a beam of sword light as Wang Mu’s life faded and he fell. That was the eternal Sword Intent, symbolizing an unstoppable force that annihilates all. In that instant, the supreme Sword Dao merged with her Primordial Spirit.

Elder Yan’s eyes flashed with two dazzling sword lights, her gaze now devoid of any distraction or gloom. Her Primordial Spirit was perfect, her Taoist Heart flawless, and the Great Taoist was attained. The rumbling Yin Thunder could no longer inflict the slightest harm on her.

Simultaneously, the thunderclouds parted. Streams of golden dawn light, like the morning sun from beyond this world, rose up, and ancient gates gently opened the heavens. A mysterious and perpetual power, carrying the aura of unending and indestructible Taoist Principles, emanated from within. The Immortal Sect had opened.

The Immortal Spirit Qi from the Upper Realm surged down like clouds and mist. Dawn light filled the sky; Immortal energy cascaded like a waterfall. At this moment, the Nine Provinces shook! The Crossing Tribulation was successful!

Countless powerful beings watched this scene in stupefied awe. After hundreds of years, someone had again achieved Ascension and perceived the Tao, breaking through that significant gate! Amidst the fearsome Ninety-Nine Heavenly Tribulations, after a millennium, she became the Nine States Cultivation World’s second Cultivator to ascend amidst the dawn light!

At this moment, whether in the outside world or within the Sword Sect, all wore faces of shock as they watched this scene. Such a spectacle had not been seen for several hundred years!

"Successful!"

Several Peak Leaders of the Sword Sect muttered as they watched, their hearts filled with excitement. In such an era rich in Spiritual Energy, the Cultivation World could thrive for tens of thousands of years. Elder Yan, who should have achieved Ascension and transcended earlier, had finally crossed the Heavenly Tribulation. She reopened the door to the Immortal Path, becoming a legendary Immortal of the Nine States Cultivation World.

The Living Beings of the Nine Provinces numbered more than billions. Ascension to the Immortal Path was the dream of countless such beings. Just...

Meanwhile.

「Ling Province. Sealing God Mountain.」

"Dawn light spreads across the world..."

Ao Qing, slumbering atop the mountain, looked towards the Huangtian Continent, his dragon eyes wide. "This must be the phenomenon of Ascension Father King spoke of, right? He said he witnessed it back then..."

Throughout the thousand-year history of the Nine States Cultivation World, those attempting Ascension through Crossing Tribulation would appear every few hundred years, especially in the last few centuries. Alas...

"With such a grand display, rumors had it that after realizing the Tao and achieving Ascension, Immortal Spirit Qi would descend, and then they would ascend to the Upper Realm... This surging Immortal Spirit Qi, even here in Ling Province, is palpable... truly inconceivable..." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Ao Qing felt that today should be regarded as a historical moment for the Nine States. The Great Immortal... should be close as well, he thought.

Just as he was contemplating this, a shadow wreathed in dark curses coalesced from within Bi You Palace. It gazed into the distance, its face a ghastly deep blue.

"Great Immortal?" Ao Qing started, swimming quickly upwards and calling out, but the Great Immortal gave no response. He just kept looking...

The Great Immortal has lost his wits... Ao Qing thought. He probably saw a peer ascending and feels somewhat resentful, right?

Ao Qing dared not say more and just kept watching.

「Fengyue Valley, Fengyue Sect.」

"Yan Sword Immortal has ascended..."

The four elders holding power in the Fengyue Sect stared at the distant Heavenly Vault, their spirits shaken. After clashing with their Venerable Lord for over a thousand years, Yan Sword Immortal was ultimately a step ahead. Since the Venerable Lord had entered seclusion, they had distinctly felt the Venerable Lord’s aura growing more stable, indicating Ascension was within reach. However, who could have known Yan Sword Immortal would be so heaven-defying? It had only been a decade since her last Tribulation. Now, having regained her Cultivation, she once again braved the Heavenly Tribulation and, against all odds... succeeded?

Of course, as her opponents, the four elders sincerely admired this Yan Sword Immortal. Now that she had ascended amidst the dawn light... it was truly enviable!

At that moment, a figure emerged from the Fengyue Sect’s sacred ground, transforming into a vivid, graceful, crimson Primordial Spirit shadow.

"Venerable Lord!"

The four bowed respectfully towards the void upon seeing this.
