92: Chapter 92 Entering the Ranks and Changes in the Universe Continent

The sun and moon alternated, time passed, and a month later.

White jade immortal energy swirled, stirring up ripples within the ancient Baiyujing Immortal Realm.

The Ten Thousand Immortals Tower was surrounded by swirling white mist, its immortal energy dense and rich.

Yang Bai sat cross-legged on a white jade throne, his hands pressed together, his expression calm. A faint white light radiated from his body, and the white jade immortal energy circulated around him like delicate threads, slowly gathering within him.

As his realm broke through, a powerful force began to surge around Yang Bai.

The Baiyujing Divine Domain began to tremble, as if it could not bear such power.

Suddenly, a much stronger wave of energy erupted from within Yang Bai's body; his physical form shuddered violently, as if struck by some immense force.

The white jade immortal energy circulated faster and faster within him, transforming into agile white dragons that roamed through his body, continuously battering his meridians and dantian.

The tremors in the Baiyujing Divine Domain grew increasingly violent, as if it were on the verge of collapse at any moment.

Yang Bai gritted his teeth, cold sweat streaming down his face. He knew this was the critical moment in cultivating the White Jade Creation Art; he had to persevere to successfully break through.

As the white jade immortal energy flowed more and more smoothly within him, Yang Bai's pain gradually subsided. A relieved smile appeared on his face, knowing his realm had finally broken through.

Yang Bai slowly opened his eyes, which glimmered like stars. He had gained complete control over the white jade immortal energy, and his cultivation had reached a new height.

"Finally level 10. I am now a First-Order Deity."

Although Yang Bai had been in seclusion for one month in the real world, the time flow inside the Baiyujing Immortal Realm was thirty times that of the outside world.

Yang Bai had actually been in seclusion for over two years.

Yang Bai pushed off the ground with his legs and flew up, then stretched his body, sighing with emotion: "It's not easy at all. I really don't know how those old monsters manage to hide in their caves like old turtles and cultivate for centuries."

Leaving the Ten Thousand Immortals Tower and arriving above the Baiyujing Divine Domain, Yang Bai discovered that quite a few people had already emerged from their meditative states.

They stood below, looking up at Yang Bai in the sky with stunned expressions.

"Is this for real? Lord Immortal Monarch has broken through just like that? That level of disturbance, this, this, this..."

"As expected of the Human Immortal Monarch; his breakthrough speed is like flying. He completed a qualitative leap in just two years."

"Heavens, kill me now. I've been in seclusion for two whole years, drank two vats of Dao Enlightenment Tea, spent all my contribution points, and only managed to go from the mid-stage of the first level of Foundation Establishment to the bottleneck of the second level."

"This is a true genius, the pride of the human race."

...

It is well known that once a cultivator reaches the Foundation Establishment stage, their lifespan doubles, increasing from the original 150 years to 350 years. In the White Jade Capital, this number increases even further.

Therefore, the lifespan bottleneck for Foundation Establishment Cultivators here is 450 years, and they also have the protection of the samsara heavenly tablet.

More than two years ago, Yang Bai had solemnly declared above the White Jade Capital that he was going into seclusion.

Consequently, the group of cultivators below had all prepared to endure 200 years of bitter cultivation in seclusion.

And yet.

"That's it?"

"That's it!!!"

"Even if we round it up, let's say you were in seclusion for three years."

"But even three years of seclusion can only be considered ordinary training; true seclusion usually starts at ten years, you know."

Just as everyone was discussing this, four figures—one gold, one red, one green, and one black—flew in front of Yang Bai.

"Congratulations to Lord Immortal Monarch on your breakthrough!"

Chen Jianfeng, Zhou Yanlie, Chu Gehang, and Mu Ziyu said in unison.

The next second.

"Congratulations to Lord Immortal Monarch on your breakthrough!!!"

The tsunami-like shouts echoed throughout the White Jade Capital. More than ninety pillars of spiritual energy rose from the ground, and all the cultivators came before Yang Bai to offer their congratulations.

Yang Bai smiled slightly and replied: "Just a simple, minor breakthrough. I hope you all have smooth sailing on your own paths of seeking the Dao."

It would have been better if he hadn't said that; hearing this made the cultivators below feel even more envious.

Yang Bai flew to the top of the samsara heavenly tablet and placed his palm on its white jade peak, saying earnestly: "Everyone, get ready to welcome new companions."

A terrifying wave of immortal power erupted from Yang Bai's body.

In an instant, the winds and clouds over the White Jade Capital shifted, and the earth and buildings trembled. The samsara heavenly tablet emitted a dazzling light, and endless obscure, sacred inscriptions flew out from the tablet, opening the gateway to another world.

——————

Universal Continent.

A white jade heavenly tablet towering into the clouds floated above the Universal Continent, possessing a magnificent aura that blocked out the sky and sun.

The entire heavenly tablet looked as if it were carved from a single piece of white jade, its surface smooth as a mirror, with colorful halos blooming across it through the light.

People often say that white jade is an ancient divine stone, representing purity and nobility, and this heavenly tablet seemed even more like a symbol of the heavens.

When night fell, the white jade heavenly tablet would emit a faint yellow halo, gently covering everything around it. It was like a profound, philosophical elder, silently guarding the entire world.

The samsara heavenly tablet had already appeared in the Universal Continent for five years.

Over these five years, too many ancient existences and powerful immortal masters had visited the white jade heavenly tablet; some studied the inscriptions on it, while others attacked it wantonly...

During the time the white jade heavenly tablet had existed, every so often, scenes of Baiyujing Cultivators going into battle would be projected upon it.

Crushing the Giant Orcs.

Fighting against the Elf Legion.

Fierce battles with great bears in the snowy mountains.

A single sword and a single spell defeating Behemoths and Ogres.

And drawing swords toward the sky, the entire cohort of Baiyujing Foundation Establishment Cultivators facing the Destruction Black Dragon.

Especially Chen Jianfeng's Three Kills of the Shattered Sword; every strike was something the sword cultivators of the Universal Continent talked about with great relish.

"Join the White Jade Capital, act as a representative of the human race, and fight against the alien races above the Universal Continent! Spread the divine might of our human race!"

No one knew when, or who had shouted such a slogan, but it spread like a virus.

In just a month or two, it had spread to every corner of the Universal Continent.

[gengjin sword Immortal] Chen Jianfeng.

[Candle Dragon General] Zhou Yanlie.

[Taiyi Green Wood] Chu Gehang.

[Misty Rain Ink Shadow] Ying Sha.

[Earth-Shaking Di Ting] Zhao Xin.

[Water-Cleansing Divine Thunder] Peng Hao.

...

These representative cultivators were even more well-known to the people of the Universal Continent.

Especially [Candle Dragon General] Zhou Yanlie; after his deeds were dug up, the Profound Yin Sect that had originally enslaved the Zhou Dynasty was wiped out overnight, with no survivors left in the entire sect.

At the same time, everyone in the Zhou Dynasty who had betrayed Zhou Yanlie was killed, and then the Immortal Martial Dynasty provided both money and manpower to support descendants of the Zhou bloodline, making the Zhou Dynasty even more prosperous.

In Fengdu City of the Cloud Sea Kingdom, the entire Chen family, along with their ancestral home, was carried away by a Great Immortal Sect to enjoy a life of luxury in the Immortal Sect.

The [Green Wood Sect] where Chu Gehang resided transformed directly into the [Taiyi Green Wood Immortal Sect], and its status skyrocketed.

The assassin organization [Yanyu Pavilion], with Ying Sha advertising for them, became the most popular assassin organization.

The head of [Yanyu Pavilion], [Ying Wu], wanted to both cry and laugh. He cried because [Yanyu Pavilion] was no longer an assassin organization in the shadows, and the ancestral brand had been ruined in his hands.

He laughed because Ying Sha was his son.

Just as Yang Bai had said, the Universal Continent was a world lacking in resources, while the Star Sea World possessed endless resources.

Everyone was looking forward to being the next one to enter the Capital.
