Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 3031 - 1122: The Immortal Realm Collapses, the Calamity of Death Descends
Previously on Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster...
Vast universe, nebulous void.
Amidst the twinkling stars, a stream of light flickered to life.
One moment it was before the eyes, the next even its trace had vanished.
In the eyes of the indigenous life forms on some primitive planets, this strand of light might be as wondrous yet ordinary as a meteor.
But for the stream of light itself, everything seemed so bewilderingly surreal.
The sound of mountains calling and seas roaring goodbye faintly lingered in the ears, yet Luo Chen knew he was far from the Mountain Sea Realm.
Feeling the expansive Spirit Mechanism around him, and the immense pull from a distant place, Luo Chen’s calm heart surged uncontrollably.
This is Ascension!
With the aid of a realm’s Spirit Mechanism, he leaps across the Endless Universe, reaching that most coveted Cultivation Holy Land—Immortal Realm!
Snippets of records about ascension from the classics emerged in Luo Chen’s mind at this moment.
Amidst the Endless Universe, countless Great Thousand Worlds exist, each with its own wonders, yet the Immortal Realm stands at the universe’s center. And each of these Great Thousand Worlds has an inexplicable connection with the Immortal Realm. Whenever a cultivator breaks through the realm’s limits, being expelled from the Great Thousand Worlds, they head to the Immortal Realm.
Such a journey is certainly not one that can be reached by simply traversing the void; only with the Spirit Mechanism’s uplifting is success possible.
What is called "riding the rainbow to ascend" is just so!
However, amidst the excitement, Luo Chen could not help but harbor some doubts.
According to the records he collected on ascension, when cultivators ascend it’s often a mere instant, and the immense pressure from space travel completely compresses Divine Perception, leaving them befuddled, only awakening once reaching the Immortal Realm. How could he be so conscious now, still able to leisurely appreciate the mysterious wonders of the Endless Universe through layers of clouds?
"The speed seems to be slowing?"
...
Deep in the universe, a giant land stretches across.
Misty clouds sprawl across the giant land, constantly surging yet restrained by some inexplicable force, unable to leak even a bit.
Suddenly!
In a remote corner of the giant land, a majestic pillar of light shot skyward.
But it was merely a fleeting moment, as the light pillar quickly calmed, gradually dispersing.
Such a phenomenon caught the attention of many strong figures on the Cloud Sea Continent.
Moments later, three figures broke through space, landing on an abandoned high platform resembling a sacrificial altar.
Below the high platform, the stone pillars are mottled, faintly inscribed with three large characters—Ascension Platform!
The three figures exchanged glances, then focused their eyes on the center of the platform.
An elderly man with a sleepy demeanor expressed surprise: "This Ascension Platform has been abandoned for a long time, how could it be activated today?"
He looked down only to find that, although the Spirit Light had dimmed on the platform, some traces still lingered in the middle.
Circle after circle, stretching over four circles in total!
"Four Transitions!"
The soft exclamation escaped his lips.
The nearby palace-clad beauty instantly understood the significance of this number, her eyes brightened, but soon dimmed again, with only a hint of regret.
"The Ascension Platform’s Four Transitions indicates that this person used at least four Laws and Great Dao to harness the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Mechanism to ascend. Perhaps with a low realm, but possessing such insight, if they managed to ascend successfully, they could undoubtedly reach the True Immortal Realm within ten thousand years. Now, their Immortal Fate is severed, what a pity."
The elderly man nodded and then shook his head slightly, seeming to somewhat disagree with the palace-clad beauty’s words.
"Ten thousand years? Daoist Yu underestimates the potential of the Ascension Platform’s Four Transitions! Such a cultivator from the Lower Realm, not an Immortal Realm native, comprehending four kinds of Laws and Great Dao in the God Transformation Realm, is extremely rare in talent and insight, undoubtedly possessing great perseverance. At most five thousand years, they’ll achieve true divinity!"
The palace-clad beauty furrowed her brow, "Friend Lv seems overly exaggerated; I concede this person’s strong insight, but their cultivation is mixed and unruly, how could they steadily progress with such focus? The mutual hindrance among them weakens cultivation, ten thousand years is already a calculation that startled me."
Seeing the elderly man about to speak, the final middle-aged figure, with a hint of ferocity between his brows, coldly snorted, interrupting the dispute.
"Enough! Our meeting today is for discussing strategies to confront the Nan Zhan Realm, why be entangled in such trivial matters? After all, just a person with a thin fortune!"
Having said that, he turned to leave.
The palace-clad beauty opened her red lips but could only sigh and follow away.
It was the elderly man who, before leaving, paused at the Ascension Platform, contemplating for a while before departing thoughtfully.
...
In the dark universe, Liuguang continued to flicker.
But for some reason, this Liuguang appeared quite confused, and eventually slowed down, revealing a figure shrouded in clouds.
"Stopped?!"
Luo Chen gazed at this scene in astonishment, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Ride the rainbow to ascend, how could it be interrupted?
Yet the immense pulling force from earlier had indeed vanished.
In the desolate starry sky, only Luo Chen remained, with nowhere to depend on, no ground to stand.
At this moment, Luo Chen stood silently in the universe, with boundless confusion on his face.
He did not understand what happened, nor why the situation arose.
But the fact was before him.
The Immortal Realm, nowhere to be found!
He, Luo Chen, failed to ascend!
An absurd feeling welled up.
Time passed unbeknownst to him, as in the universe, the concept of time itself blurred.
The confusion on Luo Chen’s face gradually dissipated, leaving only a wry smile.
Although he did not understand why it was so, the situation was before him, and he had no choice but to accept it. Otherwise, the enormous sense of disparity and future confusion would completely engulf his Dao Heart in this boundless universe.
