The Time Has Come

Southern Wilderness, Hundred Fruit Garden Secret Realm.

When that clap of thunder rang out, Jiang Chen sensed something and raised his head.

Buzz. His Yang Spirit manifested, and through the surface appearance, Jiang Chen saw the deeper changes in heaven and earth.

"The aura of lightning is surging. Azure Firmament Mountain is about to emerge."

Tracing the source, Jiang Chen turned his gaze toward the Western Region. In a daze, he seemed to see a vast ocean formed from the gathering of endless lightning.

"This time, the sect moved faster than I expected. At this rate, Azure Firmament Mountain will truly descend into the present world within half a month or so. But the celestial phenomena are in turmoil now, and the surging lightning aura cannot be suppressed no matter what. I fear someone will soon guess what is happening."

After making a brief calculation, Jiang Chen gained a rough estimate of Azure Firmament Mountain's emergence.

Azure Firmament Mountain had once been Yuhuan Continent's foremost divine mountain, the seat of its ancestral vein. Though it had later been replaced by Great Splendor Mountain of the Impermanence Sect, its status remained extraordinary. Its reemergence naturally stirred changes in the celestial phenomena of Yuhuan Continent, and this force was difficult to suppress completely, for it had already touched the very roots of Yuhuan Continent.

"With the celestial phenomena in chaos and the Western Region becoming the focus of all eyes, this will undoubtedly affect the Impermanence Sect's plans to some extent. But not by much. The Impermanence Sect anticipated this situation long ago, and for now, things have not slipped beyond their control."

"And for me, this may be a good opportunity—a chance to break through to the Celestial Phenomenon realm."

As thoughts collided, Jiang Chen seized upon a flash of inspiration.
