Chapter 786 - 493: Sword Slash to the Celestial Road! Who Dares to Ascend?
Zhao Fu’s pupils shrank.
"Seven Extremes Jade?"
Able to assist in ascension?
But in principle, ascension is the increase of one’s Life Level beyond the maximum the world can support.
Thus, one is sent by the world to the outside.
Ascension itself is harmful to the world.
The Celestial Essence Realm is bound by the Witch Demon Continent, and this Lower Realm itself is unwilling to send its strong beings to the Upper Realm.
However, in later generations, the Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm has a feedback mechanism for many Lower Realms.
Lower Realms supply Celestial Prides to the Upper Realms, and the Upper Realms provide the Lower Realms with origins, like a trade.
But now...
Zhao Fu doesn’t believe that in this era of free range in the Lower Realm, there would be such a proper mechanism as in later generations.
Let alone any objects that could assist in ascension.
"There’s only one possibility."
"Demon Race..."
This Seven Extremes Jade is very likely stained with the aura of a certain Strongest, resembling a token.
The World Will, upon seeing it, has no choice but to let it pass.
"Seven Extremes Elder was the first Ascender?"
"Naturally."
"Approximately eight thousand three hundred years ago or so."
"Before that, the concept of Breaking the Void didn’t exist."
"The Celestial Essence Continent was also a single piece of land."
"Later, rumors had it that one day a heavenly disaster struck, splitting the continent in two."
"At the same time, it also opened the Ascension Channel."
"Seven Extremes Elder obtained the Seven Extremes Jade amid the disaster, gaining a Great Opportunity and Great Creation."
"Thus becoming the first Strongest to Break the Void and ascend to the Upper Realm."
"From him onwards, the later peak strong beings of the Celestial Essence Realm found the path ahead, ascension."
"It’s important to know that before that, the Martial Dao had no path forward. Each strong being could only keep exploring that illusory and mystical path."
"Some even died of old age before the bottleneck."
"But from the moment Seven Extremes Elder stepped into the Ascension Channel and became an Ascender."
"Only then did everyone know that another path existed, a path in the Upper Realm."
Elder Qingsong sighed.
"This poor Daoist, with his old bones, has no hope of Breaking the Void."
"Breaking the Void can only rely on you true geniuses."
In his sigh, Elder Qingsong complimented the renowned, top-level strong being beside him.
Such a strong being is almost destined to ascend.
However, Elder Qingsong did not notice.
Zhao Fu suddenly fell silent.
"No wonder..."
"No wonder what?"
"Where did the myth of ascension come from, and why are you all so certain that the Upper Realm is so beautiful?"
Elder Qingsong was taken aback.
"That, of course, is... a legend, a legend from ancient times... only..."
"Has any strong being returned to the continent?"
"Is there any actual memoir description?"
"Has any of the Martial Dao’s path spread to the Lower Realm?"
"Even if the Strongest cannot return, they should be able to convey some information."
Elder Qingsong looked at Zhao Fu’s extremely serious expression, and his face also showed doubt.
Yes, many Martial Artists only know that the Upper Realm is the path of Martial Dao.
But no one knows if the Upper Realm is as they imagine it.
Like how mortals speculate about the afterlife, yet no one can come back to describe the afterlife in detail.
For strong beings, it is their only hope, "To hear the Dao in the morning, a life without regret even when facing death."
For mortals, the myth of ascension is just a topic for idle conversation.
However, few realize that without the refinement by these top elites, the Martial Dao may not continue to develop as it did eight thousand years ago.
Zhao Fu’s gaze slightly lowered.
The Ascension System only began after the Human Emperor Era, ending at the grand plan of forty thousand years.
At this time, there is no Ascension System.
The so-called ascension is merely the Demon Race’s Strongest threatening the world.
They have turned this world into a different kind of pigsty.
For producing more luxurious food.
Those Martial Arts Grandmasters on the Celestial Essence Continent, the Strongest in the world.
Believing they can continue to pursue the Great Dao upon ascending to the Upper Realm.
Unaware that they can only become food at the dining table; it’s laughable, sad, lamentable.
This has lasted for eight thousand years.
"If someone tells you ascension is a trap."
"That strong beings ascending only become food for stronger beings."
"Would you believe it?"
"How could it be!" Elder Qingsong instinctively rejected.
However, after Zhao Fu’s previous words, even though his tone was firm, his eyes showed a trace of doubt.
The myth of ascension, for many Martial Artists, is like a belief; the words "myth of ascension" represent more Martial Dao faith.
Not just simply Breaking the Void.
"The truth is this."
Zhao Fu looked to the sky.
Seemingly wanting to see the giant entity above this world.
Out of so many Ascenders, only Leng Cang returned.
Returned as half a corpse.
He does not know whether others have realized this or have realized it but cannot resist the current of the tide.
"Leng Cang was destined to meet me by the Heavenly Dao of this world."
"However, it suits my intentions."
"Boom————————"
A massive beam of light surged straight into the sky.
It seemed that a result had been reached below.
"Hahahaha!!"
"Seven Extremes Jade!!"
"I have achieved the Dao! I have achieved the Dao!!"
"Three hundred years of hard cultivation."
"Today, I."
"I, Mingwu Celestial Sect, Lingxiao, prove the Dao today!"
"Ascension Channel, open for me!"
The sky changed.
The Great Sun was suddenly shrouded in a layer of black mist.
The sky became dim.
Whirlwinds began to roar continuously.
The entire continent’s Martial Artists felt it, even many sect dynasty strong beings from the Eastern Continent took to the skies, looking towards the West.
"Indeed, the item that the entire Western Continent’s Nine Great Sects contended for, is indeed the Seven Extremes Jade that can assist in ascension!"
