34: Chapter 33: Do Not Provoke, Opening the Divine Gate
34 -33: Do Not Provoke, Opening the Divine Gate
Ning Zhengtian, with his injured body, returned to the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect in a sorry state.
When he entered the Floating Divine Palace, the assembled elders all wore expressions of anger.
“How preposterous!
A mere Reach Profound Realm ant dares to use the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Order to harm our people in such a vile manner!”
The elder with black hair had a sinister look on his face, his aura turbulently swirling around him, dark as night and terrifyingly boundless.
“Could it be that an ancestor from the Emperor Immortal Sect made their move?” the white-robed elder asked, slightly raising his eyebrows.
Ning Zhengtian, kneeling on the ground, had a pale complexion and weakly said, “Elders, the one who struck was that Ye Xuan.
He possesses some sort of bizarre power that left me unable to counterattack.
In the end, he used the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Order to drain half of my mana…”
“What?”
This statement caused a surge of shocked and questioning voices to rise within the Floating Divine Palace.
“Step forward, let me have a look at you,” the voice of the Great Elder boomed from the depths of the Floating Divine Palace.
Ning Zhengtian did as told and stepped forward.
An immensely powerful Divine Sense immediately enveloped him, and the palace fell into complete silence.
A moment later, the Great Elder withdrew his Divine Sense and said with a grave tone, “This matter must be reported to the Sect Leader at once!”
The people in the hall were taken aback, and the elder with black hair couldn’t help but say, “Eldest Brother, is such a trivial matter really worth reporting to the Sect Leader?”
“A trivial matter?” The Great Elder shook his head, “This is not so simple!
In fact, it is related to the thousand-year fate of our Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect!”
“Forget it, I will see the Sect Leader myself!”
With that, the Great Elder’s presence disappeared from the depths of the Floating Divine Palace.
This left the other elders in the hall exchanging puzzled looks.
Just Ye Xuan alone, to cause such a reaction?
“Zhengtian, you may go down and rest,” the black-haired elder said, gesturing for Ning Zhengtian to be escorted out of the hall.
“Is Eldest Brother being too cautious?
Is the situation really that serious?” the black-haired elder asked again after Ning Zhengtian had left.
The white-robed elder shook his head slightly, “It is rare to see Eldest Brother take such an attitude, the situation is probably not so simple.”
“Let’s wait for Eldest Brother to return,” another elder suggested.
About a stick of incense later, the Great Elder’s presence once again emerged from the depths of the Floating Divine Palace.
“Eldest Brother, what’s the situation?” the black-haired elder queried immediately.
“Not to be trifled with,” the Great Elder uttered these four words emphatically!
“Not to be trifled with?” Shock rippled through the Floating Divine Palace instantly.
“The Sect Leader said no one else is to intervene in this matter.
After he finishes his seclusion, he will personally visit the Emperor Immortal Sect,” the Great Elder spoke gravely.
“The Sect Leader himself is going to the Emperor Immortal Sect?” Everyone was alarmed.
No one knew exactly what had been discussed between the Great Elder and the Sect Leader, but from the message conveyed by the Great Elder, it was clear that the Sect Leader took this matter very seriously!
Despite their confusion, everyone had no choice but to follow orders.
…
Meanwhile, within the Emperor Immortal Sect.
Ye Xuan was at Emperor Peak, silently contemplating something.
Because of Ning Zhengtian’s incident, it seemed that his mother-in-law, Jiang Jing, didn’t want much to do with him anymore, whereas his wife Zhou Youwei was in secluded cultivation, and his sister-in-law Zhou Bingyi had also been sent back to her family by her mother Jiang Jing to take refuge.
The Emperor Immortal Sect, unstable as a ship in a storm.
Ye Xuan slowly opened his eyes, exhaled lightly, and smiled, “The Emperor Foundation is still present; no wonder the people from the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect dare not attack outright.”
After two days, he had deduced that the foundation of the Emperor Immortal Sect was still intact, and with Lie Tian’s Emperor Foundation laid down in the past, the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect would not have an easy time trying to break through the Emperor Immortal Sect.
At last, there was some good news.
“I wonder when those fellows from the Luotian Sacred Land will come.
Before that, it’s more important for me to open the Divine Gate,” Ye Xuan contemplated.
Ye Xuan made up his mind.
Despite his grasp of various formidable powers, his own realm was still too low; he needed to polish it.
However, in the path of cultivation, one must guard against arrogance and impatience.
As the Emperor Master who had taught countless Great Emperors, Ye Xuan knew even better the righteousness of cultivation.
A skyscraper rises from the ground; if one is too eager for success, it will only sow the seeds of disaster.
Summoning Lu Chengde, Ye Xuan asked, “Is the Divine Gate Platform of the Emperor Immortal Sect still there?”
“Reporting to my lord, the Divine Gate Platform is still there, but it has not been used for many years,” Lu Chengde replied respectfully.
“No matter, just take me there,” Ye Xuan said.
Before long, Lu Chengde had brought Ye Xuan to an ancient stone platform.
The place was somewhat secluded, with wilderness all around.
“You may go back to your duties,” Ye Xuan said, looking at the ancient, mottled stone platform and waving his hand.
Lu Chengde respectfully withdrew.
Ye Xuan surveyed the Divine Gate Platform and sighed softly.
He still remembered, ninety thousand years ago, when the Emperor Immortal Sect was a Great Emperor Immortal Sect that commanded respect in the East Desolation Domain, based in Zhongxuan Mountain, and could even hold its own against the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect from the Central Earth Divine Continent.
Today, it had fallen to such a state, and Ye Xuan felt somewhat guilty in his heart.
He had taught Emperor Mu and Empress Changxi, yet the Double Emperors betrayed him.
With the Double Emperors present, even if the Emperor Immortal Sect could hold its own against the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect, it was certainly no match for them.
That was the reason for the current situation where the Emperor Immortal Sect was being squeezed by the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect every three years.
“My Life Soul has returned to my body, yet I have become the son-in-law of the Emperor Immortal Sect; perhaps this is the will of the heavens.” Ye Xuan murmured to himself in his heart as he stepped onto the Divine Gate Platform.
The Divine Gate Platform was specifically used to open the Divine Gate, but the Emperor Immortal Sect hadn’t used it for a long time.
Using the Divine Gate Platform would consume a large amount of Spirit Stones, and given the Emperor Immortal Sect’s plight, it was truly too extravagant.
Ye Xuan sat cross-legged on the Divine Gate Platform and took out the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Order.
Hum———
The next moment, the ancient, mottled Divine Gate Platform suddenly emanated a mysterious light that enveloped Ye Xuan, slowly lifting him into the air.
Ye Xuan slowly closed his eyes and began to operate the Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Technique, starting to assault the Divine Entrance realm.
He had long reached the pinnacle of the Reach Profound Realm, so the Divine Entrance realm was within easy reach for him.
As Ye Xuan assaulted the Divine Entrance realm, a formless gate faintly appeared in his Elixir Field.
Ye Xuan activated his True Qi and ferociously struck it.
Boom!
A tremendous sound, like the ringing of a grand bell, echoed within Ye Xuan’s body!
A wave of relief swept through his entire being!
The Dao Patterns in his palm seemed to have increased by one.
Above Ye Xuan’s head, a towering Divine Gate stood grandly!
That was indeed the symbol of the Divine Entrance realm!
Stepping into the Divine Entrance realm, opening the Divine Gate, the cultivator uses soul thought to communicate with the Spirit of the Void Divine Realm!
Creak creak…
As Ye Xuan breached the intangible Divine Gate in his Elixir Field, the grand Divine Gate above his head slowly opened, emitting a heavy and ancient sound.
Divine Entrance realm, achieved!
