Chapter 1277: Chapter 1297: Realm not there yet? Just need a little boost to get there!_1

"Young friend, this is Guo Jia, an envoy from the immortals, who is responsible for testing your Immortal Fate."

Guo Jia was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man with an indifferent attitude and a gaze that suggested subtle scrutiny from a higher vantage point.

When Guo Jia arrived, the lively atmosphere immediately cooled down considerably. Even if Guo Jia was originally one of them, it was evident that an intangible hierarchy had emerged between him and the others since he became an envoy of the immortals.

Guo Jia noticed people’s reaction, nonchalantly said, "I’ll just test his Immortal Fate and leave so that it won’t interrupt your celebration."

Out of curiosity, Lin Chen asked, "Envoy, how will the test be conducted?"

Guo Jia pulled out a crystal ball enveloped in a white mist, then handed it to Lin Chen, "It is very simple, just hold it with both hands."

Lin Chen extended both hands to receive the crystal ball, feeling rather jittery.

What kind of result would reveal?

Under the gaze of the crowd, Lin Chen had no choice but to proceed with the test. He couldn’t defeat anyone here!

He had to brave it out!

The crystal ball was freezing cold, just like a piece of profound ice. As soon as it touched Lin Chen’s hands, a cold chill seeped from the crystal ball into his body through his wrists, then quickly dissipated throughout his body.

What was it testing for?

Root bones? Talents?

Lin Chen was puzzled. He glanced around and saw that everyone was focused on the crystal ball, their eyes expectant.

Would the crystal ball change?

Lin Chen looked at the crystal ball closely and indeed, as the cold air continued to stream into his body, the crystal ball started to glow!

The vague white glow resembling a low-wattage incandescent lamp.

The influx of chilly air increased, and the glow gradually became more brilliant. Its brightness also increased until, finally, the white light started to turn yellow.

What did this signify?

Lin Chen was clueless as to what this meant. He instinctively glanced at the people around him and saw the shock on their faces, as well as intense anticipation.

It seemed like this might be a positive development?

The glow continued to change from yellow and finally turned red. At this point, even the indifferent Guo Jia’s face showed a hint of surprise, and gasps echoed from around him.

Lin Chen blinked, the outcome of his test seemed to be incredibly impressive?

The intense red color deepened and turned to a thorough, blood-red color that was so dense it seemed unchangeable, just like fresh blood.

The icy cold influx started to rotate and disappear from his body, eventually returning to the crystal ball. The color of the crystal ball gradually faded until it calmed and returned to a normal look.

The surroundings fell into total silence.

There was a clear trace of uncontrollable excitement on Guo Jia’s face. He was staring at Lin Chen with fervor, as if he was looking at a flawless gemstone.

Zhao Ding, Qian Yi, Li Wu and others were, too, looking at him eagerly, their eyes radiating undisguised joy.

In a low voice Lin Chen asked, "Envoy, how did the... test results turn out?"

Guo Jia patted Lin Chen on the shoulder, gave him a pinch, then laughed heartily, "Very good, haha, exceedingly good!"

Very good?

Lin Chen heaved a sigh of relief. Did he pass?

What about Jia Xue’s test results?

Gingerly, Lin Chen asked, "What should I do next?"

Guo Jia laughed delightedly, "You don’t have to do anything, just enjoy your drink. I will report to Emperor Ming and will initiate the Immortal Ascension Ceremony for you."

Curious, Lin Chen asked, "What is that?"

With his spirits high, Guo Jia explained, "Only those with excellent Immortal Fate get a chance to initiate the Immortal Ascension Ceremony. In this ceremony, if your Immortal Fate is strong, there’s a possibility that you could directly ascend to immortality. Of course, if it’s a little less, you could at least become a half-immortal."

"Among us half-immortals, during our Immortal Fate test, the glow mainly consisted of bright yellow light and a weak red light. Nobody has ever had such an intense red glow like you."

"Going by our past experience, with your extraordinary Immortal Fate, you might ascend directly to immortality."

Ascend to immortality?

Xuan Ji Fairy had said that when you ascend to immortality, you must undergo the Thunder Tribulation and must thoroughly turn your spiritual Qi into the Immortal Spirit Qi. Without one, the process would be impossible.

What is the Ascension Ceremony?

Can it allow people to ascend directly to immortality?

Why didn’t he believe it?

Lin Chen had doubts in his heart, but his face shows a look of extreme happiness, "Really, Envoy? You mean to say that I can directly ascend to immortality? But I am only in the early stage of Void, I haven’t even reached the Great Perfection of the Void stage, how can I ascend?"

Guo Jia smiled faintly, "Not reached the stage yet? But what if you do reach it? Isn’t it just a matter of lifting your hands to the immortals to enhance your realm?"

Lin Chen pretended to be excited and asked, "When can I start the Ascension Ceremony?"

"The Ascension Ceremony needs some preparation, especially because your strength is not enough. You need to prepare some things to enhance it. Don’t worry, just stay here in peace. When the preparations are done, I will be the first to find you."

Exuding his great mood, Guo Jia laughed and said, "Originally, someone was scheduled before you, but since your Immortal Fate is higher, I guess the immortal might let you do the Ascension Ceremony first..."
