405: Open the Gate of Heaven

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three months had passed.

Within the Starry Sky, a young man with long, dishevelled hair, exuding wildness and a strange, constantly shifting Aura that sometimes felt demonic, was walking through the Void.

With each step he took, his figure would vanish from its original spot, only to reappear an unknown number of light-years away.

After seemingly taking just a hundred steps, his wild figure stood still before a massive life-bearing star.

He slowly raised his head, his dishevelled hair parting from his face to reveal his young countenance.

However, what was strange was the peculiar nature of his eyes.

His right pupil was jet black, bright like a star, with divine light hidden within, but his left eye was entirely blood-red. Upon closer inspection, it could even cause one's mind to sink into it, as if the patch of red was not just blood vessels but a true, boundless sea of blood, strange and terrifying!

"Azure Underworld, I've finally returned to this place!" he murmured softly, his right eye flickering with complex emotions.

During the last Qing Ming Great Cleansing, the entire Southeast was swept clean. He estimated that his Sect had also been purged and wondered if it still existed.

Just then, a bloody light flashed in his left eye, and a Vicissitudes hoarse voice echoed in his mind: "This Seat has calculated that the celestial treasure will appear soon. Do not draw attention. Although this Seat has lured another Fallen Immortal to the edge of the Universe, preventing their temporary return, the appearance of the celestial treasure will surely attract the Ascended Beings of the Human Realm. Do not underestimate them."

As soon as the voice sounded in his mind, the young cultivator, full of wildness, felt his face twitch, a sign of suppressed rage: "What do you want before you will leave my eye?"

The Vicissitudes hoarse voice responded indifferently: "Human Race, do not forget that everything you have now was bestowed by this Seat. Your current strength, comparable to the peak Tongtian Realm, and the old demon nurtured within your companion Spirit Treasure."

The voice gradually calmed: "Do not reject this Seat. If we cooperate, this Seat will lead you onto the Immortal Path, open the Heavenly Gate, and once we enter the Immortal Realm, this Seat will leave your eye."

"Since you chose to fall into the Human Realm and not enter the Immortal Realm, why do you still want to enter the Immortal Path and open the Heavenly Gate? Although I don't understand Immortals, I'm not a three-year-old child!" The young cultivator's words were cold.

The Vicissitudes hoarse voice was not angered, merely stating blandly: "Something is wrong with the Immortal Path. The Immortal substance in the Human Realm is decreasing. If this continues, even Immortals like us who have fallen into the Human Realm will wither and eventually perish. Entering the Immortal Path and reopening the Heavenly Gate is the only chance for us Fallen Immortals to prolong our lives."

It paused: "You too, and all beings in this world with the potential for Ascension Immortal, are the same. Time..."

"...is running out!"

The young cultivator was silent for a long time: "I don't know if what you say is true or false, but this time entering Azure Underworld, I want to reclaim everything that belongs to my 'Denglong Mountain'. I want to reopen 'Denglong Mountain'!"

The Vicissitudes hoarse voice, rarely heard laughing, chuckled as if amused by the young cultivator: "Denglong Mountain, what grand ambition!"

Who has ever heard of it?

Not to mention him, a Fallen Demon Immortal, even in this small Azure Underworld, probably not many have heard of Denglong Mountain!

For a Sect that could be drowned by a single spit, 'Zu Shou' actually spoke with such seriousness.

Indeed, it's good to be young!

But...

"Whether you reopen Denglong Mountain or even unify the entire Azure Underworld! You must not ruin this Seat's grand plan to open the Heavenly Gate, otherwise, do not blame this Seat for forcibly seizing control of your body!" The Vicissitudes hoarse voice gradually turned cold.

The young cultivator was, of course, 'Zu Shou', who could summon demons with his companion Spirit Treasure during the Qing Ming Great Cleansing.

And the entity hidden within his left eye was...

A Demon Clan Fallen Immortal!

He slowly narrowed his right eye, ignoring the Demon Immortal in his left.

Denglong Mountain, he was determined to reopen it.

He also did not intend to let go of the people who had cleansed the entire Southeast back then.

Martial God Palace, Dragon Elephant Institute, Wang Wanli, Wan Futu, Wei Wenlong, Gai Qingfeng, and also Lu Chen of Dongming Sect, not one of them would escape.

The Demon Immortal forbade him from staying in Azure Underworld, but he insisted on staying.

Without him, the Demon Immortal was nothing more than a lingering eyeball! Let alone opening the Heavenly Gate, he couldn't even enter the Immortal Path!

...

"Buzz!"

On this day, from above Azure Underworld, tens of thousands of brilliant lights suddenly shot into the sky, directly into the universe starry sky. There were covering rays of light, auspicious colorful glows, and even steaming Immortal mist. In an instant, it spread out, displaying the phenomenon of Immortals discussing the Dao and cranes soaring in the sky, shaking the entire Starry Sky for a moment.

Throughout the entire universe starry sky, countless powerful and mysterious existences, at this moment, all cast their gazes towards Azure Underworld.

"That is... a celestial treasure!"

"A true celestial treasure! Something from the Immortal Realm, reflecting the image of the former Immortal Realm, incredible!"

"This universe starry sky is about to be in great chaos! The Immortal Path has issues, and now an Immortal item from the Immortal Realm has appeared. Even those Fallen Immortals probably won't be able to sit still anymore!"

"Azure Underworld actually has such a celestial treasure!"

"No wonder, no wonder there are actually two Fallen Immortals on a small Azure Underworld!"

"There may not be only two Fallen Immortals. Now that the celestial treasure has appeared, all sorts of hidden entities will surface!"

One figure after another, standing in various parts of the Starry Sky, murmured softly and then quickly vanished from their original spots, heading towards Azure Underworld.

And even, in the central region of the entire universe starry sky, which is above Middle Heaven.

Whether it was the Void Immortal Sects and great Sects of the Human Race, the great clans among the Demon Clan, or even the terrifying great clans like the God Clan, Sacred Spirit Race, Dao Seed Clan, Ancient Clan, Asura Clan, etc., there were unprecedented terrifying Auras rising.

That was an Aura that surpassed the Human Realm, surpassed the Tongtian Realm, and even surpassed the Ascension Realm. Those were true Immortals who had fallen into the Human Realm, now recovering, and there was more than one.

On this day, the Holy Son, who was in seclusion deep within Dongming Sect, suddenly opened his eyes.

He slowly raised his head and looked at the Void above him, his expression calm as an ancient well: "Fallen Immortal in the Human Realm, why do you seek this Seat?"

Silently, from the Void above the Holy Son's head, an ancient mirror appeared. Reflected in it was a middle-aged man with a Vicissitudes face. His expression was indifferent: "Successor, you have the potential for Ascension Immortal, but the Immortal Path has issues. Even with your extraordinary talent, if you do not enter the Immortal Path and open the Heavenly Gate, you will ultimately be trapped in the Human Realm for this life, forever unable to ascend.

"Cooperate with this Immortal. This Immortal will take you to retrieve the celestial treasure, enter the Immortal Path, open the Heavenly Gate, and ascend to the Immortal Realm!"

Holy Son: "???"

Are you sick?

I am the esteemed Holy Son of Dongxu Immortal Mansion. Would the Mansion lack Fallen Immortals?
