Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 1073 - 467: The Voice Behind the Immortal Door

Not far from the Sea of Realms surrounding the True Martial Spirit Realm, a spherical space suddenly appeared.

This spherical space was not large, only about fifty li in diameter, and it manifested as semi-transparent.

It was a space Ning Qi had opened alone within the Sea of Realms by using the ability of a Realm Lord, created specifically for the Saint Ancestor to use in condensing an Immortal Door.

At this moment, there were only three people within this space.

Ning Qi and the Sea Ancestor were suspended in midair, heads raised as they watched the Saint Ancestor soaring toward the heights.

The power within the Saint Ancestor’s body was rapidly transforming into immortal power.

Strands of golden Immortal Dao Aura seeped out, coiling around the Saint Ancestor, and behind him a blurry image of a great gate followed closely as it emerged.

"It has begun!" the Sea Ancestor said, somewhat tense.

This time it was not a test, but the true condensation of an Immortal Door.

Too much hinged upon it: it concerned whether the Saint Ancestor could truly break through, and it also concerned whether Ning Qi’s judgment was correct, whether a new road to becoming Immortal could be opened.

Of course, it also concerned the Sea Ancestor’s own choice.

She firmly believed in Ning Qi, and thus had never been willing for Ning Qi to strip away the Sea of Realms energy within her body.

Ning Qi did not speak; he only silently focused on the state of the Immortal Door’s condensation.

A true Immortal Door could sever Immortal and Mortal, and cut off time and space.

Ning Qi having the Saint Ancestor condense his Immortal Door within this space completely controlled by him was precisely in order to better perceive the condition of the Immortal Door.

While condensing the Immortal Door, the Saint Ancestor still did not forget to look down at the two from above.

"Brat, I sense that it’s not only the power in my body that is condensing this Immortal Door..."

The two of them had already agreed beforehand that the Saint Ancestor would inform Ning Qi of any situation he encountered.

Ning Qi gave a slight nod, indicating his understanding.

Since the Upper Realm could control the Immortal Door, then the process of condensing an Immortal Door must inevitably involve the Upper Realm.

The only thing Ning Qi could not understand was: how did those people of the Immortal Realm accomplish it?

After all, any cultivator of the Lower Realm who wished to become Immortal had to walk this path; there was not a single one who could escape the Immortal Door.

And to be able to encompass so many people, these people moreover existing in different times and spaces—could it be that the Immortal Realm of the past truly could rule over all above and below the heavens?

The next instant, a dazzling golden radiance flashed by.

Behind the Saint Ancestor, the Immortal Dao Aura boiled.

The blurry shadow of the Immortal Door seemed to become clear in an instant; it appeared to be condensing a different door based on the Saint Ancestor’s aptitude and cultivation technique.

An Immortal Door engraved with Divine Texts seemed to have crossed time and space to descend behind the Saint Ancestor.

Rumble!

Ning Qi’s brows knit slightly.

He actually had not sensed any energy at all passing through the space he had arranged!

This meant that the energy upon the Immortal Door was most likely not coming from the outside world, which was bizarre.

The immortal power within the Saint Ancestor’s body absolutely could not condense such a vast Immortal Door, let alone that afterward the Immortal Door still had to assist the one becoming Immortal in undergoing baptism and attaining Feather Transformation.

However, Ning Qi had no time to ponder the deeper implications.

Because from that Immortal Door which had just descended, he had already felt a terrifying pressure.

Sever Immortal and Mortal, cut off time and space...

Ning Qi and the Sea Ancestor were both forced to slowly retreat from the void, as though an invisible wall was pushing toward them, driving their bodies backward.

"Shall we also condense immortal power and try?"

Ning Qi suddenly said.

The Sea Ancestor did as instructed.

In an instant, the energy within the two of them transformed, likewise condensing into several strands of immortal power.

The immortal power flowed within their bodies, and in the blink of an eye spread through their limbs and bones, as though they had donned a layer of protection.

Strangely, just as they completed all this, that surging pressure bearing down on them lessened by more than half.

Their retreating figures halted at once.

Though they could not completely stop their movement, that pushing force had clearly softened by quite a bit.

Ning Qi’s eyes lit up, and he immediately used the immortal power in his body to forcibly withstand that weakened thrust.

As expected, he completely stopped his backward retreat, truly fixing himself in the void.

"It really works?" the Sea Ancestor exclaimed in surprise.

Ning Qi narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The Immortal Door severs Immortal and Mortal—so it truly does sever Immortal and Mortal. As long as the other party has immortal power within, it will not make things too difficult."

The Sea Ancestor said doubtfully:

"Why is this Immortal Door just like those aristocratic clans in the mortal world? So long as you’re a commoner, they will absolutely not let you step into their residence. But so long as you bear a trace of their bloodline, they’re not so repulsed."

Ning Qi laughed and said, "Whether Immortal or mortal, human nature is the same."

The Sea Ancestor also used immortal power to forcibly resist that thrust, and returned to Ning Qi’s side.

She tilted her head to look at Ning Qi’s handsome young face, and a faint sense of admiration rose in her heart.

In the past, the Sea Ancestor had never even considered daring to oppose the Immortal Door; even when witnessing the Mountain Ancestor’s becoming Immortal, she had felt a mindset of submission.

Only Ning Qi dared to challenge everything.

Above.

The solid Immortal Door was the same as the one the Saint Ancestor had tested before.

Divine Texts were engraved upon it, and its color shifted from earth-yellow to jade, then to bronze; the transition of the three hues took but an instant.

The Bronze Immortal Sect spanned the void, as if turning over a page of time and space.

Feeling the connection between himself and the Immortal Door, the Saint Ancestor said:

"I feel it is scanning me, and at the same time more power is crossing space and condensing over."

Just as he finished speaking, that Bronze Immortal Sect transformed into a Silver Immortal Sect.

Ning Qi and the Sea Ancestor once more felt an exceedingly strong thrust sweep over; the two had no choice but to condense more immortal power to oppose this force that severed Immortal and Mortal.

"As the level of the Immortal Door rises, does the power severing Immortal and Mortal also grow stronger?"

Ning Qi thought to himself.

Not long after, the Silver Immortal Sect reached its utmost sublimation, and from within it leaked a resplendent golden hue.

The silver radiance seemed to be scorched by the golden light, refining away all impurities, leaving only the most Immortal color.

A Golden Immortal Sect was born before their eyes.
