The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1108 - 1106: Supreme Sect Leader of the Crimson Immortal Sect! Chang Yun!

Chapter 1108: Chapter 1106: Supreme Sect Leader of the Crimson Immortal Sect! Chang Yun!

In the darkness, the skeleton made of flesh and blood was silent for a long time, the flames of hatred undiminished in its eye sockets.

But its gaze shifted towards Lin Bai, who had just refined the blood of five people in front of the palace on Blood Mountain. The depths of its eyes were profound, "With my current power, if I wish to forcibly eradicate this boy, I fear that Qinghe’s lingering will would spare no expense to completely destroy the Crimson Immortal Sect!"

"Since that is the case, I cannot make a move, but that does not mean others cannot!"

"Qinghe, you want to see your clansmen, but that will depend on whether he survives long enough to see you!"

"You have let down my Crimson Immortal Sect, you must pay the price for your actions..."

The old skeleton’s eyes flashed with a sharp light!

Immediately, the old skeleton raised his hand and swept it forward, and the entire Blood Mountain shook with a boom. A beam of blood light spread out from Blood Mountain, condensing into a pillar of light that shot up into the sky!

Lin Bai, standing on Blood Mountain, looked up at the blood-red column rising into the sky, his eyes filled with shock.

"What’s happening?"

Lin Bai looked somewhat panicked.

At that moment, a hoarse voice echoed in Lin Bai’s ears, "Now, as the Myriad Yellow Turmoil arises and Yin and Yang have lost their places, I am Chang Yun, the Sect Leader Supreme of the present Crimson Immortal Sect, decreeing to all directions, calling the warriors of Under Heaven to gather within Blood God Mountain, to pass through the Life and Death Nine Stages in search of destiny!"

"Those with the Ascension Order may enter the Nine Stages, within which lie boundless fortunes!"

"I sit beyond the Nine Stages, and if there be a fated person, the first to arrive here shall be granted the Ascension Fruits, able to break the Martial Spirit, reach Heaven’s Mandate, and exterminate the Bellflower!"

"My name... is Chang Yun!"

The voice was hoarse but very loud, reverberating in Lin Bai’s ears like thundering roars.

The skeleton seated on the giant skull, upon hearing these words from Chang Yun, immediately scoffed in disdain, "Chang Yun, you view the members of my clan too lowly, hoping to use other warriors to eliminate my clansmen..."

"Ha! Even though my clansmen are still of low cultivation, they are not a prey that warriors from your ant-like world can bully at will!"

"Just watch, my Swallowing Heaven Clan will obliterate the sky and devour all Under Heaven!"

The skeleton sneered coldly, not taking Chang Yun’s words to heart at all.

It wasn’t that he wasn’t afraid, but he had strong confidence in the Swallowing Heaven Clan’s members!

"In this ant-like world, without the protection of a great patron, none can contend against the Giant God’s Intent. My clansmen are far greater than those ants by ten thousand times!" The skeleton, Qinghe, looked at Lin Bai, his eyes shining brightly.

"My clansman, come, I will wait for you here!"

Qinghe looked at Lin Bai, the fire in his eyes gradually extinguishing!

And once again, the darkness returned to tranquility.

...

"Those with the Ascension Order may enter the Nine Stages, within which lie boundless fortunes..." Lin Bai’s mind echoed with these words incessantly.

"He spoke of destiny..., not chance..."

"Destiny allows one to change their fate, snatch life from death, defy the heavens, and overturn the natural order!"

"This is destiny..."

Lin Bai’s eyes flashed as he looked across the vast expanse of Blood Mountain.

"I sit beyond the Nine Stages, and if there be a fated person, the first to arrive here shall be granted the Ascension Fruits, able to break the Martial Spirit, reach Heaven’s Mandate, and exterminate the Bellflower..." Lin Bai recalled the last sentence once more.

"The most enticing part of this statement is..."

"The Ascension Fruits!" Lin Bai’s eyes trembled, his expression revealing unprecedented surprise, "The Crimson Immortal Sect actually possesses Ascension Fruits!"

The Martial Spirit symbolizes a warrior’s potential!

Every Martial Spirit has its Bellflower.

Yellow Level Martial Spirits have difficulty breaking through the Divine Elixir Realm!

Mysterious Grade Martial Souls have difficulty breaking through the Wending Realm!

Earth Grade Martial Souls struggle to achieve the great Dao!

This is the Chinese Bellflower, only the Heavenly-grade Martial Soul is considered the starting point of Martial Art!

In the ancient times, someone once referred to the Heavenly-grade Martial Souls as ordinary warriors, while the Emperor-grade Martial Souls as geniuses, and God-level Martial Souls as peerless geniuses!

But alas, the heavens and earth have been in turmoil, the primordial chaos misaligned, and the world’s spiritual essence insufficient, resulting in very few warriors achieving above the Heavenly-grade Martial Soul, thereby developing the Earth Grade, Mysterious Level, and Yellow Level Martial Spirits!

But these three types of Martial Spirits all struggle to achieve the great Dao!

This is the Martial Spirit Platycodon, also known as the Heaven’s Mandate Bellflower!

Lin Bai’s Devouring Sword Spirit, originally a Yellow Level First Grade Martial Soul, unfortunately, possesses such a heaven-defying power that it can refine and break through with Demon Blood, forcibly shattering the Heaven’s Mandate Bellflower, elevating Lin Bai’s cultivation to the Heavenly Elixir Realm!

But for other Yellow Level Martial Spirits, it’s difficult! They would hardly break through the Divine Elixir Realm in their lifetime!

This is also why, when the Miracle Ridge recruits disciples, they specifically take on those with Mysterious Level and above Martial Souls!

And to shatter the heaven’s mandate of the Martial Spirit Platycodon, there have only been two methods since ancient times!

The first is the Other Shore Flower. When the Giant God Clan issued a hunt order to the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, it was said that whoever brought a Martial Soul of the Sky-swallowing Clan to the Giant God Clan, would be granted an Other Shore Flower by the Giant God Clan!

This Other Shore Flower had the effect of shattering the Heaven’s Mandate Bellflower.

The second is the Ascension Fruits. At the beginning of heaven and earth, when Martial Spirits were born, a mysterious fruit appeared in the world. After consumption, the Martial Soul could transform into a brand new Martial Soul! However, the Ascension Divine Trees gradually became extinct due to the battles among warriors in the Martial World, and nowadays, it’s almost impossible to find a surviving Ascension Divine Tree within the Martial World!

A Martial Spirit that has shattered the Heaven’s Mandate Bellflower is known as the Transcendent Martial Spirit!

The Transcendent Martial Spirit, that is, surpassing the heavenly mandate, breaking free from the bellflower!

Warriors who consume the Other Shore Flower or the Ascension Fruits will see their Martial Souls change, becoming unique in the heavens and earth, possessing potential that gods and ghosts cannot fathom!

Once, in the Martial World, a warrior with a Mysterious Grade Martial Soul, who should have lived a mediocre life, accidentally obtained an Ascension Fruit. After consuming it, his Martial Soul underwent a transformation, and in just a short ten years, he became a towering figure within the Martial World...

Therefore, the Transcendent Martial Spirit is known in the Martial World as: capable of changing fate, reversing the firmament, possessing unfathomable powers, and also holding the power to ascend to immortality and become divine!

"Ascension Fruits, transcendence of destiny!"

Lin Bai’s eyes showed shock. This Ascension Fruit could be considered a treasure coveted within the Martial World, enough to shake the Barbaric Ancient Continent, and even prompt the Central Holy Nation to compete for it!

And such an important treasure was unexpectedly appearing on the Miracle Ridge in the desolate Territory of all nations...

Humming—

Suddenly, at this moment, the token in Lin Bai’s Storage Bag lit up with a fluorescent glow...

"Is this... the Ascension Order?"

Lin Bai took out the token he had just obtained in the palace, which read "Ascension Order" in three big characters.

"The bearer of the Ascension Order may enter the Nine Stages..."

"Could it be that within the Crimson Immortal Sect, there’s not just my Ascension Order?"

"How many Ascension Orders are there, exactly?"

A hint of shock appeared in Lin Bai’s eyes.

Instantly, the fluorescent light on the Ascension Order grew brighter, wrapping around Lin Bai, and a force of spatial teleportation descended upon him.

Lin Bai’s vision went dark, and he immediately felt the world around him changing.

When Lin Bai opened his eyes again... he was already in another world...
