Chapter 155: Chapter 154: Tantai Exits Seclusion, Leaps to Dao Integration!
In the Sect Master Hall, Yang Huang’s gaze was profound. “This matter has a great impact. Now that the Qiankun Dao Sect has just finished a major war and is greatly weakened, sweeping away the Heavenly Demon Region is not realistic. Everyone, do not bring it up again!”
He was truly speechless. These old fellows had no memory at all. Had they forgotten the strength displayed by the Heavenly Demon Region during its invasion? Wanting to sweep away the Heavenly Demon Region was simply a fantasy!
Of course, Gu Shengge did it, but could everyone compare to him?
The Elders were very unwilling but powerless to refute. The Qiankun Dao Sect had already been severely weakened during the war.
If Gu Shengge hadn’t destroyed the main strongholds of these Demon Sects, the Qiankun Dao Sect might have even faced the risk of being annihilated. Yang Huang sighed, saying bitterly, “Now we can only send some Elders to provide support, and we can also bring some Disciples for experience. I wonder which Elders are willing to lead the team…”
The Elders below eagerly vied to go, which made Yang Huang very helpless. Just as he was about to select a few Elders, a sudden change occurred.
While they were discussing, on Qingxuan Peak, a divine light shot straight into the sky, and an icy aura instantly swept across ten thousand miles. Yang Huang and the Elders discussing in the Sect Master Hall all felt a bone-chilling coldness pass through them, and they couldn’t help but shiver.
“What’s going on?” An Elder asked in surprise.
“It seems to be the direction of Qingxuan Peak!” Someone said.
In an instant, everyone’s expressions changed slightly. Qingxuan Peak was Tantai Qingxuan’s Dao field, and the power just released had already surpassed the Soul Transformation Realm, even faintly exceeding the Void Refining Realm!
Yang Huang and the Elders’ eyes widened. They felt it was incredible and all left the Sect Master Hall to go outside. They saw on Qingxuan Peak that the azure divine light connected to the sky, and around the light pillar, Dao lotuses floated and sank. The entire sky above the Qiankun Dao Sect seemed to transform into a Jade Pond, carrying numerous Dao lotuses.
Yang Huang, being in the highest Realm, sensed the energy fluctuations within and was too astonished to speak.
“This is… the aura of the Dao Integration Realm! Has Tantai actually Broken Through to the Dao Integration Realm?”
The other Elders’ expressions changed upon hearing this. In their memories, Tantai Qingxuan’s presence was actually not very strong. Now, if they calculated carefully, she seemed to have joined the Sect less than a hundred years ago!
Moreover, she had always been a quiet and low-key person, only appearing a few times because of Gu Shengge’s matters. They never expected her to have Broken Through to the Dao Integration Realm now!
As they were surprised, Tantai Qingxuan emerged in mid-air, stepping on Dao lotuses, and quickly departed. How terrifying was the Lightning Tribulation of the Dao Integration Realm? If she Underwent Tribulation in the Qiankun Dao Sect, it would likely level the entire Qiankun Dao Sect.
After Tantai Qingxuan left, Yang Huang’s expression became even more complex. Gu Shengge was Tantai Qingxuan’s Dao Companion. If she knew that Gu Shengge was in danger in the Heavenly Demon Region, she would probably go crazy.
His eyes flickered, and he immediately selected four Elders, telling them to choose some Disciples themselves and take them to the Heavenly Demon Region for experience.
He himself waited outside the Sect Master Hall for Tantai Qingxuan’s return.
Tens of thousands of miles away, Tantai Qingxuan faced countless Lightning Tribulations with an indifferent expression. No matter how severely her body was injured, her expression remained unchanged, as if she was unconcerned with everything in the world.
After several hours, the tribulation clouds in the sky finally dispersed, the azure light receded, the coldness vanished, and myriad rays of light sprinkled down from the sky. Her injuries caused by the Lightning Tribulation rapidly recovered under the nourishment of the world’s vital energy.
A moment later, she had completely stabilized her Dao Integration Realm Cultivation. Her appearance was even more beautiful than before, flawlessly perfect. Every gesture and movement was full of charm, and an invisible aura fluctuated with her actions, seemingly resonating with heaven and earth.
At this moment, she seemed like a favored child of heaven and earth, surrounded by endless blessings. However, her expression remained unchanged, as if Breaking Through to the Dao Integration Realm was an incredibly ordinary matter that could not stir any emotion in her. The Cultivation of the Supreme Sentient Dao Scripture seemed to have no effect on her.
She gazed into the sky, thinking of Gu Shengge’s face. It seemed… she hadn’t seen him in a long time.
When she thought of Gu Shengge, the corners of her mouth unconsciously curved, and her eyes curved, though the arc was not large.
She took a step, covering a thousand miles in an instant, and returned to the Qiankun Dao Sect in no time.
As soon as she approached the Qiankun Dao Sect, she felt it was somewhat different from usual. Today’s Disciples seemed particularly noisy. She always preferred quiet, so she tore through the Void Realm and returned directly to Qingxuan Peak.
This time, she also didn’t intend to notify the Sect’s higher-ups. For her, the Breakthrough in Cultivation seemed to only have one meaningful purpose: to make Gu Shengge happy. As for everyone else, they were irrelevant.
She landed on Qingxuan Peak, and a figure flashed quickly from a distance, landing on Qingxuan Peak.
She had already seen who it was: Yang Huang, Mu Qianyang.
Mu Qianyang looked her up and down, marveling, “Dao Integration Realm! You actually bypassed Void Refining and directly reached Dao Integration! This is a blessing for my Qiankun Dao Sect!”
Although he didn’t know why Tantai Qingxuan had bypassed Void Refining and leaped to the Dao Integration Realm, everyone had secrets, and he naturally wouldn’t ask too many questions.
Tantai Qingxuan had no intention of exchanging pleasantries with him, only asking coldly, “Sect Master, is there something you need?”
Mu Qianyang knew her cold nature and didn’t beat around the bush. He told Tantai Qingxuan about Gu Shengge’s recent actions and the misfortunes he encountered.
After all, as Gu Shengge’s Dao Companion, Tantai Qingxuan was the one who most needed to know about this matter.
A hint of shock flashed in Tantai Qingxuan’s originally unperturbed eyes. As her gaze flickered, the surrounding environment grew colder and colder. Frost condensed on the ground and spread rapidly, causing Yang Huang to retreat a few steps in surprise.
Tantai Qingxuan then realized, cupped her hands, and said, “My apologies, Sect Master. Please tell me the location of that Disciple. I will go personally and bring him back!”
Mu Qianyang said with some concern, “But, you’ve just Broken Through. Is your Cultivation stable? The Sect has already organized a group of people and will be heading to the Heavenly Demon Region soon.”
Tantai Qingxuan’s eyes seemed to condense with ice, flickering with a faint blue light. “Sect Master, I have my own plans for this matter. Please tell me the location, and I will go ahead.”
Mu Qianyang had anticipated this possibility when he decided to tell her the truth, so he wasn’t surprised now. Unable to dissuade her, he told Tantai Qingxuan the coordinates of where Gu Shengge had gotten into trouble in the Heavenly Demon Region.
This was thanks to those demonic Cultivators who spread the news. They were afraid that the Cultivators of the Qiongsang Region wouldn’t believe them, so they directly described the specific coordinates and some of the circumstances they witnessed in vivid detail.
Tantai Qingxuan’s eyes were filled with killing intent, and her entire being exuded a low pressure that made Yang Huang Mu Qianyang feel suffocated, causing him to exclaim that the Dao Integration Realm’s pressure was terrifying.
After thanking him, Tantai Qingxuan’s figure flickered and disappeared from the Qiankun Dao Sect, having already left alone.
Mu Qianyang sighed in his heart. It had been so many years, and this was the first time he had seen Tantai Qingxuan have such intense emotional fluctuations.
After Tantai Qingxuan left, Mu Qianyang quickly arranged for Elders and Disciples to go for experience. Although Tantai Qingxuan was already on her way, she was going as Gu Shengge’s Dao Companion. The Qiankun Dao Sect must also show its support and absolutely not let Gu Shengge be disheartened!
