Inside the ascension passage.
A dazzling array of lights.
Ambrose Lu walked ahead at a leisurely pace, his hands clasped behind his back, but each step he took covered an immense distance.
Chu Xiruo and Nathan Zhang followed closely behind him.
At this moment, Nathan Zhang’s expression was blank, his face ashen and bloodless!
Chu Xiruo had just explained everything to him, and he understood…
He also realized that the man in the cyan cloth and the woman in the white dress were from the Immortal Realm.
Thus, the reason why the restrictions of the ascension passage did not activate was finally clear.
Although he didn’t know why people from the Immortal Realm would appear in the Spirit Dust Realm, it was evidently not something he should be concerned with at the moment.
There were people lying in wait to ambush them at the other end of the ascension passage…
Then, the previous ancestors from the Carefree Courtyard who had ascended, could it be that…
“Two Immortals, since the ascension passage is blocked, what should we do?”
Nathan Zhang took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, and asked respectfully.
Compared to the previous cultivators from the Spirit Dust Cultivation Realm who ascended, at least he knew some things in advance, unlike them… who died without knowing why!
Chu Xiruo waved her hand and said, “Just call us Senior. Calling us Immortals is too much. In the Immortal Realm, anyone below the Great Luo is considered lowly.”
She continued in a serious tone, “As for the blockade at the other end of the ascension passage, we will have to force our way through later. A battle is inevitable, so be mentally prepared.”
Nathan Zhang’s heart trembled. He had just ascended; how could he possibly fight against seasoned immortals from the Immortal Realm?
But soon, a brilliant light of survival flashed in his eyes. Given the current situation, he had no choice but to fight for his life!
Seeing this, Chu Xiruo glanced at the silent cyan-clothed figure ahead. She was also somewhat uncertain in her heart.
If that Old Turtle Daoist friend had come along, their chances of victory would be greater.
However, recalling Ambrose Lu’s mysterious methods outside the Carefree Courtyard earlier, she felt slightly reassured.
In her view, Ambrose Lu’s cultivation level in the Immortal Realm should not be too low.
She was at the eighth rank of Earth Immortal, so Ambrose Lu was likely a Heaven Immortal, though she couldn’t tell which rank.
“Alright, you two stay quiet and don’t be nervous.”
At this moment, Ambrose Lu turned his head slightly and smiled.
Seeing this smile, Nathan Zhang and Chu Xiruo inexplicably felt at ease.
Moments later.
An ancient door appeared before them.
Nathan Zhang and Chu Xiruo’s hearts tightened. They knew that someone was waiting for them outside the door…
As soon as it opened, a battle would begin.
Ambrose Lu stood before the door, gently placing his hand on it…
Seeing this, Chu Xiruo and Nathan Zhang clenched their fists…
Creak!
The door opened, revealing an endless desert and a scorching sun hanging high in the sky.
A thick wave of immortal energy instantly enveloped the three of them.
Nathan Zhang, who had just arrived, felt incredibly comfortable, as if his entire body was rejoicing.
Soon, a mocking laugh reached their ears.
“Heh heh, Senior Brother, it’s just our turn to guard, and some unlucky ants have arrived.”
“Not bad luck. After killing this ant, we can return to the sect and report. The next brothers on duty don’t know when the next ant will ascend, haha.”
“Hmm? There are actually three ants? It seems this Spirit Dust Realm isn’t too bad after all. What a pity…”
“……”
Listening to these mocking words,
Ambrose Lu and the other two slowly stepped through the door,
Soon, six disciples dressed in golden silk robes appeared before Ambrose Lu.
“Daoist Lu! They’ve changed the guards!”
Chu Xiruo said gravely. When she came earlier, it was five different disciples.
Nathan Zhang was extremely nervous at this point. The six people before him gave him immense pressure!
“You three ants are very unfortunate. Blame it on a previous cultivator from your realm who offended someone.”
The leading disciple said arrogantly.
“Heh heh, Senior Brother, don’t be in such a hurry. This woman, though veiled, has a really nice figure. Look at that slender waist. How about we have some fun first?” A disciple leered at Chu Xiruo.
“Good idea, you rascal…” Hearing this, the six of them laughed smugly.
They didn’t even bother to probe the three ants before them.
After all, they were already trapped.
“You!” Chu Xiruo was furious and embarrassed. She turned her head and said, “Daoist Lu, let’s make our move!”
At this moment!
Ambrose Lu, who had been silent, gently raised his hand and then pressed down!
Boom!!!
Five of the six disciples exploded into blood mist.
The remaining disciple’s smile froze on his face…
“You, you!” The disciple’s throat went dry, looking at Ambrose Lu as if he were a ghost!
Ambrose Lu seemed not to hear him, grabbing the disciple from a distance and suspending him in front of him.
He stood with his hands behind his back, a blue light flashing in his eyes.
The disciple became dazed.
After extracting the memory, the disciple quickly regained consciousness, enduring the headache, and shouted in fear, “Who, who are you…”
But before he could finish, he too exploded into blood mist.
The world became quiet.
“Uh…”
Chu Xiruo and Nathan Zhang stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do.
The series of events just now happened in the blink of an eye, and they couldn’t react at all.
“Senior Lu…”
Chu Xiruo bent down and called out tremblingly. She no longer dared to address him as Daoist Friend; she wasn’t worthy.
Nathan Zhang was also trembling with fear. He wasn’t stupid; he knew they had encountered a supreme expert.
Ambrose Lu turned his head to look at them, a gentle smile appearing on his face, “I told you not to be nervous, I wouldn’t lie to you.”
“Yes, yes, Senior is right!”
Chu Xiruo and Nathan Zhang nodded quickly, like pecking chickens.
“We should be in the Southern Immortal Realm of the Four Directions Immortal Realm now…” Ambrose Lu looked up at the sky and said softly.
Chu Xiruo and Nathan Zhang kept their heads down, not daring to speak.
Chu Xiruo’s mind was still in chaos. She couldn’t understand why such a powerful figure would appear in the humble Spirit Dust Realm.
This, this must be at least a Golden Immortal, right?
“I’ll take you out of this desert, then you can go your separate ways.”
Ambrose Lu said, and with a flick of his sleeve, the two bewildered individuals disappeared from the vast desert.
……..
As Old Turtle said, even the lower sects in the Immortal Realm were a hundred times better than those in the Spirit Dust Realm.
Magnificent and grand, filled with immortal energy!
It was hard to imagine that the endless, glorious buildings in this immortal energy belonged to a single sect!
Outside the Tianheng Grand Sect.
Nathan Zhang looked at the scenes before him with trembling eyes. It was too spectacular… In the desert earlier, apart from that mysterious force purer than spiritual energy, there was nothing different. Until now, out of the desert…
He realized how much of a frog in a well he had been!
Chu Xiruo’s pupils had already contracted tightly. This sect was… wasn’t it the sect of the six disciples who died outside the ascension passage…
“Alright, we’ve left the desert. You can go your separate ways now.”
Ambrose Lu said, then walked towards the Tianheng Grand Sect with his hands behind his back.
“Senior, those six disciples were from this sect, you…”
Chu Xiruo looked at the cyan-clothed figure, her voice trembling.
Chu Xiruo’s family wasn’t far from the Tianheng Grand Sect, so she naturally recognized it. The Tianheng Grand Sect was a dominant force in the Southern Immortal Realm!
She didn’t understand why Ambrose Lu, after killing the sect’s disciples, would still dare…
Ambrose Lu paused, a kind smile appearing on his lips, then continued walking.
“What? Just because I killed their disciples, I can’t pay a visit?”
