Above the Great Dao

At the moment Qing Yang grasped the True Martial Evil Extermination Sword, this Immortal Sword erupted with divine power, and the rosy clouds surged. As Qing Yang swung the sword, the rosy clouds gathered from all directions, following the glow of the True Martial Evil Extermination Sword!

The rosy clouds were magnificent, dancing with the sword light, and immediately filled the Green Sheep Palace!

The rosy clouds roamed between the Yin Yang Two Realms, intertwining and intercrossing, even within the underworld's Black Pot, one could see those long rainbow-like rosy clouds swiftly passing by, mysterious, beautiful, yet extremely dangerous!

Chen Shi, without a second thought, dashed outside the palace, shouting, "Yu Lingzi, stick close to me, avoid the rosy clouds!"

He had long witnessed the terror of the rosy clouds, even the past King of the Heavenly Pond Ghost Country, Xiang Fu, who could rival the Mahayana Realm, perished under such rosy clouds!

Anyone who even slightly touches the rosy clouds would be directly cut down by half, even a Demi Immortal like the Innocent Taoist would inevitably die!

If the True Martial Evil Extermination Sword strikes Jing Hong, he would undoubtedly die!

But staying in the Green Sheep Palace is also extremely dangerous!

The power of the True Martial Evil Extermination Sword is too strong, with rosy clouds everywhere, although not aimed at them, if they swept over them, it would mean certain death!

The power of the Immortal Sword is incredible, and Chen Shi did not know how to resist, he could only dodge, the farther away the better!

Yu Lingzi did not understand his intention, but knowing this was a matter of life and death, hurriedly followed Chen Shi, shadowing him closely as they rushed out of the palace.

At the same time, Chang Ying Daoist ignored the rosy clouds in the palace, activating the Taizhen Jade Formula. Behind his head, a brilliant light sparkled, like a Lingzhi made of jade light bursting from the void, creating ripples, one circle after another washing outwards. These were the rings of the Lingzhi, rippling out circle after circle.

The roots of the Lingzhi were planted behind his head, connected with his mind.

This Lingzhi was his Void Great Realm.

When the Taizhen Jade Formula is cultivated to the extreme, its external manifestation is like this.

This technique is one of the cultivation techniques in the Ten Books of Cultivation, immensely mysterious, and is a technique only the Sect Leader's line can cultivate. Chang Ying Daoist cultivated this technique, progressing rapidly, breaking through the Returning Void in ten years, and reaching the Mahayana Realm. Later, he passed this technique to Yu Lingzi, seemingly having the intention of regarding Yu Lingzi as the next Sect Leader.

At the same time, a Jade Ruyi appeared in his hand, about one foot seven or eight long, shaped exactly like the Void Great Realm behind his head.

This treasure was named Taizhen Ruyi, the treasure of the Taihua Qing Palace, although not an Immortal weapon like the True Martial Evil Extermination Sword, it was forged by the Three Saints, most compatible with the techniques of the past Sect Leaders.

Chang Ying Daoist wielded the Taizhen Ruyi, instantly merging his own Void Great Realm in the form of a Lingzhi with the Ruyi, causing the power of this treasure to soar!

As the Taizhen Ruyi smashed down, the Green Sheep Palace had already been pulverized by the violent force!

Above the Green Sheep Palace, dark clouds gathered, suddenly a large concave area appeared in the clouds, about over a hundred miles square, caused by the power of this treasure!

Chang Ying Daoist was a disciple of Jing Hong, knowing the old Sect Leader's prowess well, thus he directly struck to kill!

Chen Shi, carrying Yu Lingzi, rushed to the entrance of the Green Sheep Palace, just one step away from exiting the palace, when Chang Ying Daoist's Taizhen Ruyi reached above Jing Hong's head, supreme power about to descend, and Qing Yang holding the True Martial Evil Extermination Sword, its blade surrounded by rosy clouds, approached Jing Hong.

The drifting rosy clouds halted.

Chen Shi was startled, hastily stopped, nearly colliding with the suddenly still rosy cloud in front of him.

He knew something was wrong and quickly turned to look at Qing Yang and Chang Ying Daoist.

The Taizhen Ruyi wielded by Chang Ying Daoist was suspended above Jing Hong's head, not yet falling.

This middle-aged Daoist's body trembled, his voice hoarse, "I saw it, I saw the Feather Transformation and Ascension, Master didn't deceive me, he didn't..."

Qing Yang's paw holding the sword was trembling.

He saw it too.

Saw the ascension, saw the Immortal Realm, saw the mysteries of Transformation Feathering!

He couldn't help but let out a joyous laugh, "Little Ten, I've comprehended it! I've understood Transformation Feathering, the everlasting Creation and Transformation Skill! Ah—, it's too wonderful!"

"Pa!"

A sound of goat skin cracking came from his nape, he was molting like a cicada, wanting to shed this goat skin, saying, "I've followed Chen Yindou for so long, searching everywhere for lost cultivation techniques, seeking out lost mysterious skills, completing history of the old times, but I've never attained the Immortal Dao. Unexpectedly, today I can become an Immortal!"

Chen Shi shouted, "Uncle Qing Yang, this is not becoming an Immortal! It's just an illusion caused by evil change!"

Qing Yang's eyes were brimming with hot tears, he shouted, "Little Ten, I don't want to wait any longer! I don't want to see generation after generation leave! I don't want to send you off after sending off your grandfather! The Golden Cicada Sheds Shell Heavenly Immortal Diagram, it's an Immortal Law, it can ascend!"

Just as Chen Shi was about to speak, Yu Lingzi suddenly said, "Chen Zhenwang, this is not an illusion."

Chen Shi was horrified, quickly looking at Yu Lingzi beside him, only to see the little Daoist's eyes had turned gray-white, a sign of the Transformation Feathering precursor!

The itch on the nape of Yu Lingzi grew increasingly intense, his skin gradually cracking, yet he smiled, "This is the true Immortal Dao, although different from Ascending by raising the cloud, it is also ascension. Sect Leader Jing Hong will lead us, the whole sect, to ascend to the Immortal Realm!"

"Pa!"

The skin on his nape completely split open.

He ultimately didn't learn Yin Yang Refining, relying on Chen Shi's Yin Yang Refining, was unable to resist Jing Hong's influence at such a close distance.

Chen Shi also felt his neck itching, raised his hand to touch it, but when he touched the nape, the skin was smooth, with no sign of cracking.

Jing Hong laughed, "Everyone else can ascend, except you. Now, I shall let the sect ascend, how could there be no witness? You are Chen Yindou's grandson, your grandfather once offended me, so I want to keep you, to let you witness as I lead all disciples of Taihua Qing Palace to ascend, to become Immortals like me! I want you to sing praises of today's great deed!"
