Each Generation Brings Forth Talents, the Ascension Ceremony

Look at this!

Clearly, like the Thunder Clan, they were well-prepared.

At this moment, the Grand Elder of the Qingyang Sect had bright eyes and was full of energy!

He spoke again with a smile.

"I am the Grand Elder of the Qingyang Sect, and my cultivation has reached the Peak of Mortal Transformation Ninth Layer Heaven."

It has already reached the highest level of this world, which is also the limit that it can contain.

It has a lifespan of over six hundred years.

Now, I am over seven cycles of sixty years old.

If you wish to further improve your cultivation and enter the next Great Realm—

Then the only way is to ascend to the upper realm!

Originally, I had already offered sacrifices to Heaven and Earth and opened the Heaven-Connecting Sacred Altar.

The Ascension Ceremony is all set!

But hearing that you have wiped out several top-tier forces has caused widespread panic among our people.

There was no other way!

"I can only stay for now to appease everyone!"

After a pause!

The Grand Elder stared intently at Jiang Yi, a fighting spirit gradually rising within him.

My blood and energy are boiling and surging!

A terrifyingly hot aura was emanating from it!

"Of course, I would also like to see just how exceptionally talented you are."

I wish to ascend to heaven!

"I would like to have the opportunity to have a match with you, to exchange ideas and discuss the Dao, and to experience your amazing talent."

The Grand Elder and then added a sentence!

Even just a brief mention would be fine!

Back in the day!

He once dominated a great era!

He defeated all the geniuses of his generation and later even ascended to the realm of kings.

It rose rapidly all the way up.

Even the older generation of true kings might not be his match!

Even today!

He remained confident that he was the greatest man in the world and could suppress all enemies.

Though he is old, his passion remains strong!

It has a grand and imposing spirit, like an old man suddenly feeling youthful again.

While saying this!

He took out a thin, ancient book, on which wisps of crimson-gold flames flickered.

"This is the inherited technique of my Qingyang Sect!"

I suppose this is what you've been looking for!

Regardless of what happens next, whether you win or lose, I will bestow this technique upon you...

I hope that after I ascend to immortality, you will do me a favor.

Do not make things difficult for those I teach!

Jiang Yi's face remained calm and composed, as always.

He stared directly at the old man, and after a while...

He nodded and said:

"Good!"

He agreed!

"Thank you very much!"

The Grand Elder smiled slightly and cupped his hands in a gesture of respect befitting a peer.

"Bring it on!"

Jiang Yi stood up, his robes fluttering in the wind, his hands behind his back.

Waiting for the old man to make a move!

Judging from his words!

He seems quite confident in his own abilities!

Moreover, he even had the will to fight!

Old age doesn't mean a dead heart!

"How about we settle this with a single move?"

As the Grand Elder, the golden sun floating behind him shone even brighter.

With the continuous influx of its magical power, it gradually solidified from nothingness!

At last!

It landed in his hand, and as he spread his five fingers, it gathered in his palm.

"Good!"

"Then, sir... please be careful!"

The Grand Elder laughed heartily!

His laughter was extremely hearty, resounding to the heavens, and he exuded an aura of dominance!

He raised his hand and slapped down!

Jiang Yi extended his right hand and met the attack with a palm strike of his own!

Golden Divine Radiance burst forth, swirling with various auras, and the Primeval Aspect Mana surged forth.

Blending and converging, forming one!

Bring your palms together!

Both of their bodies jolted violently!

The next moment!

The Grand Elder stumbled, accompanied by a series of thuds.

Start backing up!

The moment the two palms separated, the void at the center exploded, and space shattered.

A terrifying wave swept outwards!

It stirred up a storm, causing the world to lose its color.

"Hahaha!"

After the Grand Elder, he glanced at the palm of his hand.

A hint of crimson appeared, slid across the lines of his palm, and dripped onto the earth like dew.

He seemed somewhat dazed, and after a moment of stunned silence...

Immediately!

He raised his head and burst into laughter!

"Okay! Okay! Okay!"

As the saying goes, "Talented people emerge in every generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years!"

That's absolutely true!

"I admit defeat! I am no match for you! I have lost! I have lost!"

"The younger generation is truly surpassing the older one!"

"Sir, with your strength, you are undoubtedly the best in the world!"

"This old man would like to address you as—"

"The number one person in the world!"

The Grand Elder showed no sign of dejection; on the contrary, he was filled with great joy.

That feeling is like--

There are successors!

After laughing, he stepped forward again and solemnly handed the ancient book to Jiang Yi!

[Detected True Grade High-Rank Cultivation Technique - <Nine Heavens Blazing Sun Technique>]

[Should we burn the disc?]

"Yes!"

Seeing Jiang Yi accept it, the Grand Elder's smile seemed to deepen.

Just as Jiang Yi was about to take his leave!

Unexpectedly, the other party spoke again.

"Does Your Excellency have other important matters to attend to?"

If you're not in a hurry!

You are welcome to visit my school. I am in a good mood today, so let's do it now.

Today, this old man will not...

A moment later, they ascended to the upper realm!

With your level of cultivation, I imagine you would not be content to remain in this mortal realm for long.

Then, ascend to the upper realm!

That is absolutely imperative!

This is a perfect opportunity for you to observe!

Perhaps my ascension will offer you some experience for the future."

Ascending to the upper realm?

Jiang Yi felt a sudden, inexplicable stirring in his heart!

Upon seeing this, the Grand Elder laughed heartily and, without waiting for his reply, quickly pulled him away!

We both fell into the air!

Flying towards the summit of the Qingyang Sect!

Jiang Yi: "..."

This is really too much enthusiasm, it's simply...

I couldn't refuse such hospitality!

Nangong Yao, barefoot, lightly touched the ground and also flew through the air, hopping and skipping along.

With his big, narrowed eyes, he followed closely behind!

She needs to stay close!

What if this guy suddenly gets a brain fart and ascends to heaven too?

She hasn't received the ancient scriptures yet!

No, no!

Golden Horned Horse: "Neigh! Neigh!"

This is...

Abandoned???

Several True Kings of the Qingyang Sect saw it, and after exchanging glances...

He quickly used his magic to lift it up, and together they soared into the air, returning to the sect!

We can't miss their Grand Elder's Ascension Ceremony!

As for the Golden Horned Horse, that's quite gratifying!

I looked to the left, then to the right, and these are all --

What a sweet treat!!!

The center of the Qingyang Sect was a large square paved with white stones!

Many disciples of the Qingyang Sect, as well as a group of high-ranking figures, stood all around!

Their eyes were all burning with desire as they stared intently at the high platform in the very center!

That place was originally the site of the Qingyang Sect's sun-worship ceremony!

But at this moment, it became the place where their Grand Elder ascended to heaven!

On the high platform!

There are ancient patterns, seemingly carved according to some kind of law or principle.

Observe carefully!

One can glean a subtle mystery from it!
