53: Head to the Xuan Tian Realm! Enter the Holy Land of the Upper Realm

With the first place of the four domains decided, the exit to the Ancient Realm appeared within Yiling City.

All the Holy Land Elders present stared intently.

They wanted to know which Disciple from the Qilin Seeking Domain could possibly take first place ahead of the Heavenly God Realm Disciples and Prince Tianque.

Finally, space fluctuated, and a youth appeared in their sight—someone unexpected, yet within the realm of reason.

"It's the Holy Son!!"

Kong Zhengzhen's eyes were filled with wild joy, his excitement irrepressible.

"To think it would be him."

"If it's him, then it makes sense."

Although the Elders of the various Holy Lands were greatly surprised, the doubts in their hearts gradually dissipated.

Among them, the Elders of the Myriad Flower Holy Land were the most embarrassed.

The enemy of their Holy Land had actually secured the top ranking for them... The moment he appeared with Fang Chensheng, Mu Zun could clearly sense a Divine Thought from above the firmament enveloping them.

It was attempting to find something on them.

Unfortunately, it ultimately found nothing and could only withdraw.

"Heh."

A cold sneer curled at the corner of Mu Zun's mouth.

Seeing Mu Zun walking toward him, Kong Zhengzhen hurried forward.

"Holy Son!"

Mu Zun supported Kong Zhengzhen, who was about to bow to him.

"There is no need for this."

Mu Zun shook his head slightly.

Seeing Kong Zhengzhen treat a junior with such respectful attitude, the Elders of the various Holy Lands couldn't help but look sideways, showing a hint of confusion.

However, in the next moment, a voice coming from the firmament made it impossible for them to remain calm any longer.

"Mu Zun, you have finished the ranking battle. I wonder if you are prepared to come to the Profound Heaven Realm and be officially conferred as a Saint?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the Elders present all showed shock; some even had unstable auras upon hearing this.

Master Kong Wen and the Wanhua Elder, who had a deeper understanding of Mu Zun than the Holy Lands of the other three domains, were even more appalled and shaken at this moment.

He had only recently entered the Boundless Holy Land as the First Holy Son, and now he was going to the Upper Realm to be a Saint?!

The Wanhua Elder felt as if she were dreaming.

Similarly, in the Profound Heaven Realm, the other Holy Land Elders beside Elder Li were all in disbelief.

"Elder Li, what are you saying?!"

One must know that in the Holy Lands of the Profound Heaven Realm, the weight of a Saint's title was completely different from that in the Lower Realm.

Some Holy Lands had no Saint to this day, only True Disciples.

That was why that Elder Zang had been so agitated upon hearing that his own True Disciple had died in the Lower Realm.

In the Upper Realm, True Disciples represented the peak combat power of the Holy Land's younger generation.

The fall of even one was a massive loss for a Holy Land.

"This was not a decision made by me alone, but by the Immeasurable Holy Master and the council of Elders."

Seeing their shocked expressions, Elder Li spoke calmly.

But in his heart, he already felt great disdain for them.

A bunch of fools who can't recognize greatness! Do you even know what the Double Pupils are? Bumpkins!

If they knew what the Double Pupils were, these old fogies would probably throw away all dignity and start fighting over him on the spot, right?

Hearing that it was the decision of the Immeasurable Holy Master, those few Elders were instantly speechless.

The thoughts of the Immeasurable Holy Master were not something they could speculate on.

Furthermore, they weren't Elders of the Boundless Holy Land, so it naturally wasn't their place to interfere.

On the other side, Fang Chensheng, who was behind Mu Zun, was slightly startled to hear the words from the sky.

But soon, he felt happy for Mu Zun.

Now, everyone's gaze was fixed on Mu Zun.

There was confusion, and there was envy.

Mu Zun's gaze was indifferent; he had already made his decision.

He spoke faintly: "This Disciple is ready."

As the words fell.

A heavenly gate leading to the Upper Realm appeared in the sky, accompanied by divine light.

The moment the heavenly gate appeared, every Elder present showed a look of longing in their eyes.

Heading to the Upper Realm was the current goal of their cultivation.

Only by going to the Upper Realm would they have the chance to see a vaster world.

The Heavenly Spirit Continent was truly too small.

"Come with me to the Upper Realm."

Mu Zun turned and said to Fang Chensheng.

As soon as these words came out, Fang Chensheng instinctively froze for a moment.

"Holy Son, I can also enter the Upper Realm?"

Fang Chensheng pointed at himself in disbelief.

"No need for words, let's go."

Mu Zun stepped into the Void Realm, heading toward the heavenly gate that led to the Profound Heaven Realm.

"Oh, oh, yes, Holy Son..."

Fang Chensheng had thought that after Mu Zun went to the Upper Realm, he could only Cultivate hard in the Lower Realm and would have to wait a long time before he could go to the Upper Realm to find him.

He never expected that Mu Zun could directly bring him into the Upper Realm.

The Elders were somewhat dazed when they saw Fang Chensheng following Mu Zun toward the heavenly gate.

What's going on? Why is this Disciple following too?

They then saw that after Mu Zun entered the heavenly gate,

Fang Chensheng also stepped in easily, without any obstruction.

The Upper Realm seemed to have tacitly permitted Fang Chensheng's actions.

After Fang Chensheng entered the Upper Realm, the heavenly gate slowly closed and vanished... "So this is the Upper Realm, the Profound Heaven Realm."

Passing through the heavenly gate, Mu Zun arrived at a place that looked like a fairyland.

Floating around was not the Spiritual Qi of the Heavenly Spirit Continent.

It was a unique substance above Spiritual Qi, an existence between Divine Qi and Spiritual Qi.

Fang Chensheng followed closely behind, also drawn in by the surroundings and that substance.

"Holy Son Mu, how does it feel?"

Suddenly, a white-haired old man appeared before Mu Zun and asked with a smile.

"It is naturally quite good."

Mu Zun nodded and responded with a smile as well.

"The remaining matters of the Four Domains Ranking Battle will be left to those old fellows. I shall first take you to our Boundless Holy Land."

The more Elder Li looked at Mu Zun, the more satisfied he felt.

He then took the two of them and left immediately... In the void, atop a massive ancient leaf.

A youth and an old man sat drinking tea.

"The rules of our Boundless Holy Land in the Profound Heaven Realm are not much different from those on the Heavenly Spirit Continent."

"The Boundless Holy Land is divided into five rings; the fifth ring is the outer, and the first ring is for the Saint."

"The first ring is where you, Holy Son Mu, will reside."

The old man was naturally Elder Li of the Boundless Holy Land.

Meanwhile, Mu Zun quietly sipped his tea, listening to Elder Li explain the matters of the Boundless Holy Land.

"The Disciples are distributed among various mountain peaks, led by True Disciples who command the Outer, Inner, and Core Disciples within their peaks."

"Since Holy Son Mu has just entered the Holy Land, you can first enter the Heaven-Reaching Ancient Pagoda. The higher you go, the richer the rewards. If you need guidance in cultivation, we can arrange for Elders to instruct you."

Elder Li introduced the place to Mu Zun.

"Oh, and regarding that female Disciple named You Xianya you mentioned before, she is currently at Ten Thousand Birds Peak, an Inner Sect Disciple under True Disciple An."

"Now, True Disciple An's Revered Master, Elder Ding, has already instructed True Disciple An to no longer favor her. Once you enter the Holy Land, Holy Son, you may dispose of You Xianya at any time."

After Elder Li finished speaking, he stole a glance at Mu Zun.

Seeing no displeasure on his face, he finally felt at ease.

The importance of a mere Inner Sect Disciple compared to Mu Zun was completely self-evident.
