Arc 27The Tianyuan Ascension
Li Yunjing united the factions and ten Ancestral Vein True Spirits to return the Dao Fruit to the origin, despite sabotage by Yan Tianjin and an Immortal Realm inspector. The Tianyuan Dao Realm ascended into the Tianyuan Immortal Realm, and Li Yunjing returned to Luozhen Sect to strengthen its fortunes and resources.
- Li Yunjing revealed that the Dao Fruit assimilated its bearers, then learned from the Five Spirits Lord that returning it to the origin could end the Dao Realm’s cycle of purges.
- Li Yunjing persuaded the ten Ancestral Vein True Spirits, including the initially opposed Primordial Origin Spirit, to support the ceremony after the Five Spirits Lord exposed the Immortal Realm’s deception.
- Li Yunjing and the True Spirits began the Return to the Origin Ceremony at the High Antiquity Burial Ground, using the Five Aggregates Cauldron to conceal it as Yuanchu guided the Dao Fruit.
- Yan Tianjin attacked during the ceremony, but the True Spirits repelled his strike, and Li Yunjing persuaded him to join the defense against the traitorous Dao Guardian.
- A Dao Guardian sent a transmission bearing the Immortal Realm’s imprint, but Ling Xuan delayed the report by fighting Immortal Venerable Chiyang until the Sea of Origin recognized the ascension.
- The final wisp of origin merged into the realm, transforming it into the Tianyuan Immortal Realm as Yuanchu ended his reincarnation cycle and cultivators across the realm celebrated.
- The Dao Realm’s blessing strengthened Li Yunjing and Luozhen Sect, where Fang Tong and many disciples advanced their cultivation.
- Wang Heng delivered the Immortal Alliance’s rewards, and Li Yunjing upgraded the Sect Grand Hall and Spirit Field.
