785: Chapter 785 Lu Xueqi and Biyao (164)

Void Refinement Stage, he had finally broken through.

From this day on, he was the youngest Void Refinement Stage Cultivator in the Cultivation World, standing on the same level as Master Wanjian and Immortal Master Xuanqing.

Fairy Yuehua rushed over, embraced Su Han, and sobbed uncontrollably.

"You did it, Su Han, you did it!"

Su Han held Fairy Yuehua, feeling the warmth from her body, his heart filled with gratitude.

"Thank you, Junior Martial Uncle," Su Han said softly. "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to persist until now."

Fairy Yuehua looked up, meeting Su Han's eyes, her vision blurred by tears.

"Su Han," Fairy Yuehua said, choking back sobs, "I..."

She wanted to say something, but swallowed the words that reached her lips.

Su Han looked at Fairy Yuehua, the softest part of his heart touched. He lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead.

"I know, Junior Martial Uncle," Su Han said softly. "I know everything."

Fairy Yuehua closed her eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks.

At this moment, all scruples and all concerns no longer mattered.

What mattered was that they were together.

Immortal Master Xuanqing and Master Wanjian stood in the distance, watching this scene, and smiled at each other.

"Let the young people handle their own affairs," Immortal Master Xuanqing said. "We old guys shouldn't interfere."

Master Wanjian nodded and said, "Indeed, the future of the Cultivation World belongs to them after all."

...

After reaching the Void Refinement Stage, Su Han's Chaos Power underwent a qualitative leap.

If the Chaos Power at the Soul Transformation Stage was a river, then the Chaos Power at the Void Refinement Stage was an ocean. Quantitative change had led to qualitative change. Su Han felt that his Chaos Power was no longer just simple strength, but contained some kind of ultimate truth of heaven and earth, a power of certain rules.

Immortal Master Xuanqing was right; the Chaos Power at the Void Refinement Stage could indeed possibly tear open the barriers of heaven and earth and open a passage to the Immortal Realm.

But Su Han did not rush to try; instead, he first stabilized his cultivation. Breaking through too quickly had its downsides; if the Foundation was unstable, it was easy to suffer from Qi Deviation. He needed time to digest this Breakthrough and truly stabilize his cultivation at the Void Refinement Stage.

Half a year later, Su Han's cultivation was finally completely stabilized.

On this day, Immortal Master Xuanqing called Su Han, Fairy Yuehua, and Master Wanjian together to announce an important decision.

"Three days from now, Su Han will attempt to open the Gate to the Immortal Realm at the back of the Qingyun Sect," Immortal Master Xuanqing said. "At that time, I will use the Five Elements Fusion Array to assist him. Wanjian, you are responsible for guarding and preventing anyone from causing trouble. Yuehua, you are responsible for looking after Su Han's safety."

The three nodded simultaneously.

"Grand Elder," Su Han asked, "after the Gate to the Immortal Realm is opened, can we enter?"

Immortal Master Xuanqing shook his head and said, "After the Gate to the Immortal Realm is opened, only Cultivators at the Void Refinement Stage or higher can enter. Yuehua is currently still at the Peak of the Nascent Soul Stage and cannot enter the Immortal Realm."

Upon hearing this, Fairy Yuehua's expression darkened. This meant that if Su Han truly entered the Immortal Realm, she would have to be separated from him.

Su Han saw what Fairy Yuehua was thinking, reached out and held her hand, saying, "Junior Martial Uncle, no matter where I go, I will return."

Fairy Yuehua nodded and managed to force a smile.

Immortal Master Xuanqing looked at the two, sighed, and said, "Su Han, after you enter the Immortal Realm, you must find a way to completely eradicate the Lord of the Nether as soon as possible. One day in the Immortal Realm is one year in the human world; you cannot afford to delay."

Su Han felt a jolt in his heart and asked, "The passage of time in the Immortal Realm and the human world is different?"

"That's correct," Immortal Master Xuanqing said. "The passage of time in the Immortal Realm is much slower than in the human world. For every day you spend in the Immortal Realm, a year passes in the human world. Therefore, you must complete your mission as quickly as possible and cannot stay long in the Immortal Realm."

Su Han nodded and said, "This Disciple understands."

Three days later, at the back of the Qingyun Sect.

The Five Elements Fusion Array had been reactivated, with four light dragons circling the altar, and the powers of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning permeating the air.

Su Han stood in the center of the altar, forming hand seals and circulating his Chaos Power.

Golden Chaos Power surged from within him, condensing above his head to form a golden pillar of light. The pillar of light grew higher and thicker, shooting straight into the clouds.

A crack appeared in the sky.

The crack grew larger and wider, as if an invisible giant hand had torn open a gap in the sky. On the other side of the crack was a brilliant radiance; that was the light of the Immortal Realm.

The Gate to the Immortal Realm had opened.

Su Han took a deep breath and turned to look at Fairy Yuehua.

"Junior Martial Uncle, wait for me to return."

Fairy Yuehua was covered in tears and nodded.

Su Han turned around, leaped, and jumped into the Gate to the Immortal Realm.

Golden light enveloped him, his figure becoming increasingly blurred until he finally disappeared into the radiance.

The Gate to the Immortal Realm slowly closed, and the sky returned to its original state.

Fairy Yuehua stood on the back mountain, looking in the direction where Su Han had disappeared, remaining silent for a long time.

"He will return," Master Wanjian walked to Fairy Yuehua's side and said softly.

Fairy Yuehua nodded and said, "I know. I will wait for him here, wait for him to return."

...

The moment he passed through the Gate to the Immortal Realm, Su Han felt as if he had been gripped by an invisible giant hand, his entire being spinning rapidly amidst endless radiance. His Chaos Power surged wildly within him, as if it were about to tear him apart, and also as if it were reshaping his body.

He did not know how much time had passed before the dizziness finally vanished.

Su Han opened his eyes, and what came into view was a world completely different from the Cultivation World.

The sky was pale gold, and the clouds were very low, as if they were within reach. The air was filled with extremely dense Spiritual Qi—no, that was no longer Spiritual Qi, but a higher level of power. Su Han took a deep breath, and that power surged into his body; his Chaos Power immediately became active, as if a long-starved beast had finally found food.

"Is this Immortal Qi?" Su Han muttered to himself.

Immortal Master Xuanqing had once said that the Immortal Realm was filled with Immortal Qi, and its purity was more than a hundred times that of the Spiritual Qi in the Cultivation World. Cultivators at the Void Refinement Stage who Cultivate in the Immortal Realm would progress ten times faster than in the Cultivation World. But Su Han had no intention of Cultivating; he had only one purpose in coming to the Immortal Realm—to find a way to completely eradicate the Lord of the Nether.

Su Han looked around and discovered that he was standing on the Peak of a high mountain. In the distance, amidst the swirling immortal mist, a group of majestic palaces was faintly visible, their golden glazed tiles shimmering under the immortal light. Further away, huge mountain Peaks floated in mid-air, with waterfalls cascading down from their tops into bottomless abysses.

"So this is the Immortal Realm..." Su Han sighed in admiration.

Suddenly, a strong sense of crisis arose from the bottom of his heart. Su Han instinctively dodged to the side, and a sharp sword light flew past his body, carving a deep crack into the ground.

"Who goes there?" Su Han shouted sternly, his Chaos Power rapidly circulating within his body.
