Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension Chapter 1768 952: First Arrival on the Honghuang Continent

During the Zhao Family's clan celebration, Ancestor Xuanxian, who should have been brimming with confidence, was actually getting pummeled, his head swollen with bumps, forced to dodge around with an extremely embarrassed look.

Inside the Five Elements Cave Heaven,

As the golden light dissipated, Zhao Xuanxian was left in tattered clothes, groaning in pain, his features twisted into agony.

Seeing that he really couldn't fight back, he quickly threw away the broken sword in his hand, angrily shouting, "No more, no more! I admit defeat, isn't that enough?"

Before the words were finished, a ball of golden light fell before him out of thin air.

As the golden light faded away, a handsome young Taoist appeared on the spot, with a long golden braid hanging down from the back of his head, ending at his heels.

"Hehe, Senior Brother hasn't had enough fun yet! Why did Junior Brother stop fighting? Come, come, let's spar again. This time, Senior Brother will permit you to use both hands." Yuan Hong said with a mischievous grin, looking at his Junior Brother, his eyes showing a hint of eagerness.

It had managed to let loose, intending for a big fight with Junior Brother, but who would've thought its Sister would admit defeat after just a few punches.

It wouldn't do, because it hadn't fully enjoyed it yet!

"A man's word is as good as gold! Saying no more means no more. I lost... I admit it!" Zhao Xuanxian said loudly, rubbing his sore arm with a decided expression.

It's not that he couldn't take a beating, but because his Senior Brother Yuan Hong was too formidable.

After Zhao Xuanxian advanced to Unification, he thought the gap between his abilities and his Senior Brother's had narrowed significantly.

Unexpectedly, during the actual confrontation, he ended up losing even more miserably than the prior time.

His Senior Brother's rapid improvement in strength was far beyond his expectations.

Zhao Xuanxian even speculated that his Senior Brother might have already crossed that threshold, advancing to a level comparable to the Demon Saint in the Tribulation Crossing Realm.

Similar to his speculation, although Yuan Hong hadn't truly broken through to sainthood, his strength wasn't weaker than most Demon Saints.

If it were to fully exert its strength, ordinary Tribulation Crossing Venerables might not be its match.

Seeing that his Junior Brother wasn't convinced at all, Yuan Hong changed his approach and more eagerly enticed: "What if... Senior Brother lets you use both hands and feet, and only uses ten percent of my strength. Junior Brother, don't you want to beat me just once?"

"Win once?!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuanxian was extremely tempted.

Recalling numerous past defeats, he desperately wanted to beat his Senior Brother, even if just once!

When Zhao Xuanxian was about to give it a shot again, a faint, indistinct wave of Divine Thought came through the sky.

Next, both Yuan Hong and Zhao Xuanxian heard a clear, cold voice in their ears.

"Oh no, the Master is summoning us. Alas, what timing," Yuan Hong exclaimed in disappointment, then complained with a face of annoyance.

This Master summoned him just in time, allowing him to avoid a calamity.

"Senior Brother, since Master has commanded, let's hurry up and go."

Yuan Hong nodded helplessly, then summoned a ball of Qingyun, jumping onto it.

Zhao Xuanxian's figure flickered, quickly landing on Qingyun.

"Senior Brother your tunneling light is fast, how about taking me along?"

"Hold on tight!"

Before the voice fell, Qingyun suddenly transformed into a stream of golden light and disappeared from the spot.

...

In just an instant, both Yuan Hong and Zhao Xuanxian appeared in a paradise filled with fragrant flowers, singing birds, and lush greenery.

Zhao Sheng was standing under a Ten Thousand Years Old Peach Tree, smiling as he watched the two disciples hurrying over.

Yuan Hong and Zhao Xuanxian hurriedly approached, bowing: "Disciple Yuan Hong (Zhao Xuanxian), pays respect to the Master!"

"No need for the formalities!"

Zhao Sheng nodded slightly and continued, "I am about to set out on a journey and may not return for a long time, so I've summoned you here to inform you of some matters in advance."

Yuan Hong, with his carefree nature, didn't notice the deeper meaning behind the Master's words.

Zhao Xuanxian, with his keen mind, immediately sensed the implication of the Master intending to convey his final instructions.

"Could it be that the Master wants to... attain Dao Ascension?" Zhao Xuanxian felt a pang of anxiety and quickly repressed this thought deep within his heart.

Even between Master and disciple, the line must be respected. Some secrets are matters of life and death, not to be questioned.

Zhao Xuanxian had his own unspeakable secrets, and so did his Master and Senior Brother.

"Yuan Hong, your nature is impetuous and free-spirited. Before I leave, I will pass on to you the 'Subodhi Unmoving Seal' and 'Infinite Heaven Traveling Skill'."

After saying this, Zhao Sheng gently touched his finger to Yuan Hong's brow.

In the next moment, countless profound scriptures poured into Yuan Hong's Purple Mansion like a torrent, soon transforming into two volumes of golden silk scrolls, floating in the Soul Sea's Upper Sky.

After the Dharma Transmission, Zhao Sheng looked at his second disciple and calmly said: "Xuanxian, you appear humble but are proud within, never willing to admit defeat. I fear that you might encounter danger midway, so I pass on to you the 'Taichu Undying Body' and the 'Big and Small Ruyi Immortal Skill'."

Saying this, he again gently touched his finger to Zhao Xuanxian's brow.

A moment later, he withdrew his finger, seeing Zhao Xuanxian standing there in a daze, his whole aura changing repeatedly.

The first disciple Yuan Hong was originally the reincarnation of a Daluo Golden Immortal, and it possesses its own fate, requiring only a simple imparting of the Magic Skill.

The second disciple Zhao Xuanxian was different; Zhao Sheng not only imparted Immortal Law but also infused his own insights into it.

This alone would save Zhao Xuanxian from countless detours in the future.

Not stopping at passing on Immortal Law, Zhao Sheng also implanted the Small Wind Stabilizing Pearl within his disciple.

Time flies like an arrow, and three years passed in the blink of an eye.

Yuan Hong and Zhao Xuanxian woke up one after another, only to discover that their Master had long departed.

"Senior Brother, wait for me for three thousand years. Next time we spar, I will definitely defeat you fair and square." Zhao Xuanxian, having acquired the Superior Immortal Technique, saw his Daoist path advancing briskly, swelling with newfound confidence.
