282: Open the gate of heaven and enter the fairyland

After this battle, the continent's power structure stabilized. The world now knew that the Human and Demon Clans governed this realm.

The races that had once been affiliated with the Three-Race Alliance also pledged their allegiance.

Over the past century, everyone had not idled away their time. Striking while the iron was hot, with the cultivation limit now raised again, they all entered the Time Tower to temper and refine themselves.

Lin Yan sat in the courtyard, gazing thoughtfully at the sky. This Plane was where he had cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years. To say he had no feelings for it would be pure self-deception.

Therefore, even if he ascended to the Upper Realm, he still had no intention of abandoning his connection with this world.

He could set up a formation, and once he had his own base in the Immortal Realm,

any living being capable of breaking through to the Emperor Realm could be guided to the Upper Realm.

There was also a question that he hadn't quite figured out: what level of strength was he at now?

In the Lower Realm, he already knew he was an absolutely invincible existence; even the Heavenly Dao was but a speck of dust in his eyes, easily defeated.

But in the unknown Immortal Realm, what level of strength was he at?

He not only possessed the Immortal Body but also had a peculiar attribute that he hadn't yet comprehended.

However, he could confirm that hundreds of thousands of years ago, after cultivating to the Dao Entry Realm, he was not bound by this realm.

He seemed able to break conventions and increase his cultivation without limit, as long as he had enough energy. Therefore, in the years that followed, he continuously absorbed endless spiritual energy.

It could be said that the long-standing spiritual energy depletion in this realm was closely related to him.

But ever since he emerged from seclusion at the Chang Sheng Sect, he stopped absorbing, which ushered in the Golden Age.

He hadn't forgotten this. After ascending, he would begin to transform the cultivation environment of this realm. He believed that with the nourishment of Immortal Qi, an unprecedented golden age could be created.

Although he wasn't clear about his own standing, he was certain that he would not be weak even in the Immortal Realm. He had just divined his journey of ascension.

The result was that there was no danger, which meant that the Immortal Martial Sect, which governed this Plane, could do nothing to him.

As for the cultivation realm divisions in the Immortal Realm, as told by Shi Zhenxiang, they could roughly be divided into Mortal Realm and Immortal Dao Realm.

The highest realm of the Mortal Realm was equivalent to the Great Emperor of this Plane, but one was not considered to have entered the Immortal Dao Realm until they became an Immortal.

The initial Immortal Dao Realm could be divided into three Immortal Realms: True Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, and Golden Immortal.

Those who could cultivate to the Golden Immortal Realm were all great masters, sect leaders, governing countless territories.

Above Immortals were Immortal Lords, who held significant status in the Immortal Realm and commanded respect in their region.

Above that was the Immortal King Realm, the kings among the Immortal Dao Realms, suppressing a region, with their fame spreading far and wide.

Above them, Immortal Emperors reigned supreme, the Imperial figures of the Immortal Dao, governing all directions and dominating the universe.

Further up was the Immortal Venerable Realm, looking down upon all beings in the Immortal Realm, sacred and inviolable, whose names dared not be spoken, they were the magnates of the Immortal Realm.

As for whether there were higher cultivation realms beyond that, the other party did not know, perhaps because their level was too low.

The minor realms, however, were identical to the Lower Realm, all divided into Early Stage, Mid Stage, Late Stage, and Peak—four major levels.

Shaking his head slightly, Lin Yan stopped thinking. Everything would gradually become clear once he reached the Immortal Realm; there was no need to add to his worries.

In the blink of an eye, a hundred years had passed. Everyone in the Time Tower emerged from seclusion and gathered in the courtyard, making it quite lively.

Lin Yan surveyed the crowd, his tone calm, his deep eyes flickering, and he said lightly, “Starting today, the Heavenly Gate opens, we approach the Immortal Realm, entering the Immortal Dao domain. The prosperity of the Lower Realm, a fleeting illusion, all mortal affairs shall be cast aside!”

“Let’s go!”

He took a few steps and arrived deep in the sky. The others followed closely behind, shaking the world.

Their auras were completely unmasked, shaking heaven and earth, making countless people in the world feel it, looking up.

“Break the wall and gaze upon Immortals!”

Lin Yan spoke, his voice like a great bell, reverberating through all directions.

With a large hand, he tore open a huge gap in the boundary wall of this realm.

The faint Immortal Qi emanating from it shocked the world, and they seemed to sense that an earth-shattering event was about to occur.

However, these were merely insignificant wisps emanating from the Immortal Realm barrier. One could imagine what it would be like when they truly stepped into the Immortal Realm.

Lin Yan did not hesitate and stepped directly into it. This was only the boundary wall of the Tianwu Plane; they had not yet reached the true Immortal Realm barrier.

Everyone followed closely, their expressions extremely excited, full of anticipation for what they would see and hear next.

This was something countless beings in this Plane had yearned for throughout the ages, but never attained. Today, they were about to make history.

Only Big Yellow Dog, with his hands behind his back, took one last look at this realm. After brewing his emotions for a while, he said with an air of extravagance, “While the beings of the Lower Realm look up in awe, I already stand proudly at the peak of Immortals!”

He deliberately spread these words to every corner of the continent, and everyone's hearts were shocked to the extreme.

What kind of words were these? They felt a strong sense of arrogance, and the image of Big Yellow Dog at that moment involuntarily appeared in their minds.

It could be said that he had put on a grand show in front of the world.

Seeing this, Big Yellow Dog nodded in satisfaction, stepped into the boundary wall, and disappeared. The Immortal Qi that had swept across the continent also suddenly vanished.

Only countless people remained, their hearts surging, staring at the depths of the sky, unable to calm their turbulent emotions!

...Lin Yan led everyone through the spatial turbulence. No matter how terrifying the chaotic rock torrents were, they could not get close in the slightest.

Soon, they saw a boundless Immortal Dao barrier in the distance, suffused with immortal light, indestructible.

The group exchanged glances, all eager to try, clearly wanting to see if their current strength could shake it.

Boom, boom, boom.

Terrifying attacks were unleashed, but apart from producing frightening explosions, there was no substantial effect. The Immortal Realm barrier remained completely unharmed.

This made Niu Fei and the others a bit dejected. This scene was too disheartening, but they were still at the peak of Quasi-Emperor cultivation, and their strength was still quite a bit less than that of a Great Emperor.

Mo Lingxiao was full of fighting spirit. He took a step forward, wielded his black spear, and thrust out a black dragon spear glow, tens of thousands of feet long, fiercely striking the barrier.

Crack.

Everyone was startled. They looked closely and were astonished to find that the seemingly unbreakable Immortal Realm barrier had actually cracked, causing them all to gasp in cold air.

Such strength was truly terrifying, but there was no further progress; only a few cracks appeared.

It would take a considerable amount of time to break through it.

“Master, I want to try!”

Luo Qinglian stepped forward. His current strength was considerably greater than before he was captured by the Heavenly Dao, and he was confident he could break it with his own power.

Lin Yan nodded. His original intention was also to let everyone break through it themselves. After all, things were different now, and without the Heavenly Dao's obstruction, breaking through was merely a matter of time.

Luo Qinglian's eyes blazed with divine light, and a cyan longsword appeared in his hand, ancient and sharp. Terrifying sword intent spread, and chaotic qi surged around him.

He raised the longsword above his head, closed his eyes, and then abruptly opened them. A brilliant sword light sliced through the void, striking the Immortal Realm barrier.

Immediately, to everyone's astonishment, the Immortal Realm barrier shattered, creating a passage directly to the Immortal Realm!
