Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1062 - 516: The Mahayana Cultivator’s Long-cherished Wish—No One Can Become Immortal

Naturally, that is not to say that no predecessors have attempted to endure the tribulation and ascend to the Immortal Realm.

However, success has remained elusive for them all.

The thunder tribulation of ascension possesses such a terrifying nature that it is akin to divine retribution.

Every Mahayana cultivator who has braved this trial has succumbed under the weight of the Immortal Tribulation.

The sheer force of this tribulation is magnified a hundredfold compared to those experienced previously.

As eons passed, a profound sense of despair engulfed many Mahayana cultivators who came to believe the path to immortality had been permanently severed.

Ascension to the Immortal Realm has become impossible for anyone currently in existence.

Nevertheless, certain Mahayana practitioners suggest that the peculiar fluctuations within the Mortal World might be intimately connected to the Void Realm, positing that the ruinous war of antiquity was the very catalyst that fractured the immortal path.

Should one yearn for the resurgence of this path, they must await the complete restoration of the Void Realm.

Driven by this conviction, many Mahayana cultivators chose to enter a state of slumber, tethered to the hope of witnessing the revival of the Void Realm and the subsequent restoration of their path.

Now, after the passage of billions of years, it appears the news of the Void Realm’s awakening has finally reached them.

Consequently, the Mahayana cultivators of the Thousand Illusion Sect find themselves overcome with exhilaration.

For them, this represents an unparalleled opportunity.

Seizing this moment might finally provide the opening required to cross the tribulation and emerge as an Immortal.

"Sect Leader, does the Void Realm truly harbor a path toward the Immortal Realm?"

This youthful Mahayana cultivator inquired with a solemn tone.

He had always harbored skepticism regarding such claims.

"I cannot be certain, but that is what the legends claim."

"Furthermore, if we refuse to investigate or make the effort, how will we ever know the truth?"

"As long as rumors of an ascension path exist—no matter how tenuous—we are obligated to attempt it."

Qian Qiuhen responded with a calm demeanor.

Upon hearing this, every individual present nodded in accord without need for further discussion.

For these Mahayana cultivators, worldly concerns like status, wealth, and secular power have long since lost their appeal.

Such trivialities are already well within their grasp.

Their singular, all-consuming obsession is the attainment of immortality.

Yet, over billions of years, countless Mahayana practitioners have ventured forward, only to find the path to ascension permanently barred.

It is as though the road to immortality was obliterated long ago.

They refuse to accept this fate.

Despite the slim glimmer of hope, they are determined to make one final attempt.

The seals provided by the Life Source Stone carry their own inherent limitations and cannot last through an eternity.

Eventually, every one of them will draw their final breath.

Only immortality can offer a true escape from the clutches of mortality.

"However, the Void Realm has only just begun to recover, and current law restrictions prohibit the entry of any cultivator surpassing the Void Refining stage."

"Certainly, it may require a substantial amount of time to restore the Void Realm to a state capable of supporting Mahayana-level beings."

"That poses little problem; we can task the Void Refining cultivators within our Sect to gather intelligence about the current state of the Void Realm."

"Indeed, the Thousand Illusion Sect has been disconnected from the Void Realm for too long; we are essentially blind to the current conditions, necessitating a high degree of caution."

"Then let us dispatch a few Void Refining disciples to explore; even if they happen to perish, their sacrifice will provide us with vital intel regarding the Void Realm."

"Have no fear, the candidates have already been selected; there are three early-stage Void Refining cultivators who have violated Sect rules and committed heinous crimes, and this serves as their chance for penance."

The Mahayana cultivators of the Thousand Illusion Sect conferred among themselves.

With merely a few words, this strategy was confirmed.

The plan was to deploy these Void Refining subordinates into the Void Realm to act as scouts.

Once the intelligence gathered confirms the state of the realm, the Thousand Illusion Sect will prepare a larger, more comprehensive invasion.

High above, the Sect Leader, Qian Qiuhen, remained silent, his eyes reflecting a depth of unfathomable mystery.

......

An hour later.

Boom~~

Three figures flickered through the cross-border teleportation array, instantly manifesting inside an ancient relic cave mansion.

This sanctuary was, in truth, a minor Secret Realm World.

The three were the chosen Void Refining cultivators of the Thousand Illusion Sect: Peng Yurong, Zhao Haiping, and Qian Gehui.

Upon arrival, they scanned their surroundings with extreme vigilance, wary of any potential traps.

However, the cave mansion was entirely devoid of life.

No foes were to be found.

"Is this truly the legendary Void Realm?"

"Did the Sect pay such an enormous price to open the teleportation array just to cast us into this place?"

"What kind of a Great Thousand World is this so-called Void Realm?"

Peng Yurong surveyed his surroundings with curiosity, searching for some sign of importance.

Yet, it was merely a standard relic cave, holding no secrets pertaining to its nature.

He could draw no definitive conclusions about their location.

"The Spiritual Qi in this region is woefully thin."

"It barely matches the intensity of a Tier Six Spirit Vein."

"According to the Elders, this is a world currently undergoing a gradual recovery of Spiritual Qi."

"Consequently, the most formidable cultivators here should only be at the Void Refining stage."

"Given our cultivation levels and techniques, we should encounter very little resistance."

Zhao Haiping squinted, his eyes burning with a cold, murderous intent.

He felt this assignment to the Void Realm might actually be his greatest stroke of fortune.

Should he acquire sufficient merit, he would not only wipe away his past transgressions but also secure immense rewards from the Sect.

Of course, having been chosen by the Elders, they truly had no alternative.

To defy their orders would have meant instant execution.

"Although we only expect to face Void Refining cultivators, one can never be certain what manner of monsters lurk within this world."
