Chapter 3960: Closing in to Break Through to Golden Immortal Stage

He had passed by this uniquely shaped island twice on his way to the Chiyang Sea, and it had left a deep impression on him. He never expected the Grandmist Ranking to transport them directly to the Tianchen Sea. He wondered if it was a coincidence or intentional.

"Finally, we're safe," Wang Ruyan exhaled. "Even Taiyi Golden Immortals would find it hard to catch up." She breathed a sigh of relief. The Tianchen Sea and the Chiyang Sea were far apart, so even Taiyi Golden Immortals couldn't arrive quickly, let alone any other immortals who hadn't seen them.

It was fortunate that they encountered three Dao artifacts this time. Without the Azure Luan Escape Talisman, they would have certainly met other immortals and been recognized, making it difficult to keep their good ranking a secret. Additionally, the Azure Luan Escape Talisman played a significant role when they faced the Heavenly Chosen Supremes and challenged the Golden Immortal cultivators.

Wang Changsheng nodded and said, "Let's go! We'll return to Qinglian Island and begin our secluded cultivation to break through to the Golden Immortal stage." He summoned the Jade Green Boat, and they departed.

Less than half a month later, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan returned to Qinglian Island. Their trip had been quite fruitful; they had obtained ten first-grade Dao elixirs. Since they had already cultivated their Laws to the Minor Accomplishment stage, these first-grade Dao elixirs were not of much use to them. They could be more effective if given to Wang Qingshan and others.

Wang Changsheng took out a blue-glowing Dharma Disk, cast a spell, and said, "Mengbin, come to Qinglian Peak.""Yes, Ancestor," Wang Mengbin's voice came from the Dharma Disk.As soon as he finished speaking, a silver bolt of lightning flashed high above Qinglian Peak, revealing Wang Mengbin's figure. Wang Mengbin had remained on Qinglian Island since his last return. He had consumed an Enlightenment Fruit and had been comprehending Laws. His Law Tree had grown to over five zhang tall but hadn't reached Minor Accomplishment yet. Not all True Immortal cultivators could cultivate their Laws to the Minor Accomplishment stage just by consuming an Enlightenment Fruit; it varied from person to person.

Wang Mengbin slowly descended, landing in front of Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan. "Ancestors!" he bowed respectfully.Wang Changsheng took out an exquisite silver jade box, handed it to Wang Mengbin, and said, "Mengbin, this is a first-grade Dao elixir containing the Law of Thunder. Take it and consume it. We plan to go into seclusion to break through to the Golden Immortal stage, and we need you to stay in the Tianchen Sea to guard us." Since they had comprehended the Supreme Laws, their thunder tribulation when attempting to reach the Golden Immortal stage might be stronger. They couldn't be disturbed during their tribulation, so having Wang Mengbin guard them would allow them to focus on their breakthrough.

"A first-grade Dao elixir containing the Law of Thunder!" Wang Mengbin gasped, his expression growing excited."After you take this first-grade Dao elixir, your Law Tree can grow taller. Whether you achieve Minor Accomplishment in the Laws will depend on you," Wang Ruyan instructed, then dismissed Wang Mengbin.

Wang Changsheng summoned Wang Qingbai, gave him a first-grade Dao elixir containing the Law of Wood, and instructed him to personally deliver the other Dao elixirs to the Chaotic Continent for Wang Qingshan and the others to consume. Wang Qingbai readily agreed and left.

"Husband, do you still remember the names of those Heavenly Chosen Supremes?" Wang Ruyan asked with a frown.Wang Changsheng shook his head, puzzled. "That's strange. As soon as I left the Grandmist Ranking, I forgot them. I only remember the process of our trials. As for the names and statues of those Heavenly Chosen Supremes, I have no impression. Could it be that the Dao artifact erased that part of our memory? To protect the challengers?" He mused, if they remembered the names and statues of those Heavenly Chosen Supremes, even if the elites from major forces failed the trials, they could still send people to find these highly ranked Heavenly Chosen Supremes to kill them and seize their treasures, preventing them from growing stronger.

"That must be it," Wang Ruyan said. "We've gained a lot this time; we can consider attempting to break through to the Golden Immortal stage."They used a soul-searching secret technique on Meng Tianfeng's nascent soul and discovered that the Meng family intended to continue targeting the Wang family, envious of Haoyang City which the Wang family controlled. The Bai, Meng, and Jiang families formed a collective interest group, rising and falling together. As the Wang family continuously grew stronger, the Bai family's interests in the White Deer Archipelago would be harmed, and the Meng family would also be affected. Most importantly, the Wang family sided with the Gao family, who were rivals with the Jiang family. This ensured that they would not get along peacefully. Meng Tianfeng had hired a True Immortal of Great Perfection to kill three True Immortals from the Wang family, and it was unknown what more outrageous things they might do in the future. If the Wang family had a Golden Immortal cultivator, their confidence would be much greater.

Wang Changsheng nodded. "Right, wife, let me see that Wordless Heavenly Book." Wang Ruyan took out the Wordless Heavenly Book and handed it to Wang Changsheng. He flipped through it, but saw no words—it was completely blank. Even the spirit of the Qiankun Pagoda couldn't identify the origin of the Wordless Heavenly Book, indicating it was an extraordinary item. He used his divine sense to investigate but found nothing unusual. He tried to burn it, but it had no effect."Could it be like the Green Lotus Creation Cauldron, requiring a thunder tribulation strike to open?" Wang Changsheng wondered."We can't rule out that possibility. At the very least, we currently have no way to uncover the secrets of the Wordless Heavenly Book," Wang Ruyan analyzed. The artifact spirit must have studied it, otherwise it wouldn't have said the Wordless Heavenly Book was very high-grade. Discovering its secrets was beyond their current capabilities.Wang Changsheng put away the Wordless Heavenly Book and released Wang Tun Tian and the others, allowing them to move freely.

Both Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan had sustained injuries during their trials, though not severe. Wang Changsheng had purchased second-tier immortal pills for healing and planned to take them first before beginning his seclusion to break through to the Golden Immortal stage. After chatting for a while, they left Qinglian Island and traveled to Dongli Island and Xuanyang Island respectively. Wang Mengbin had already informed Wang Yongqian to disperse the clan members on both islands. The area extending a hundred million li around these two islands was to be designated a restricted zone, with Wang family cultivators patrolling day and night.

Wang Changsheng entered a private chamber, which was over a hundred zhang in size and contained two blue meditation cushions. He sat cross-legged on a cushion, took out a golden porcelain bottle, poured out a golden pill, and swallowed it. The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, transforming into a massive surge of energy that coursed through his body, making him feel slightly warm. Wang Changsheng quickly circulated his cultivation to refine the medicinal power, feeling a slight itch at his wounds.

On Nine Immortals Island, within a vast estate, Ning Hao sat in a blue stone pavilion, holding a golden, shimmering Immortal Transmission Mirror, on which Jiang Changlin's image was displayed."The Dao artifact Qiankun Pagoda has appeared!" Ning Hao's face was filled with regret. If he had known earlier, he would have gone himself. But what was done was done; it was too late to say anything now, as the three Dao artifacts had already left."Indeed! I couldn't even defeat the tenth-ranked challenger, who already has late Golden Immortal cultivation. Only by defeating the first-ranked challenger does one get a chance to challenge the Heavenly Chosen and Supremes." Jiang Changlin looked regretful."Never mind, it's just bad luck. Come back for now!" Ning Hao said."Understood, Senior Brother Ning," Jiang Changlin replied.The surface of the Immortal Transmission Mirror in Ning Hao's hand dimmed. He frowned, muttering to himself, "I wonder who managed to challenge the Heavenly Chosen Supremes. I also wonder if I'll be able to make it when the Qiankun Pagoda appears next time." He put away the Immortal Transmission Mirror, entered a private chamber, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate.
