The concept of a born saint begins with Strange Tales from Liaozhai.

"Why...why is he looking at me?"

Wu Chongxin was terrified.

Su Chen paid no attention to Wu Chong's thoughts, his azure-gold double pupils gleaming slightly.

With his double pupils and terrifying comprehension, he was able to quickly analyze and comprehend all the information and circumstances about Wu Chong with just one glance.

"The Cycle of Reincarnation?"

A look of surprise flashed in Su Chen's eyes.

"interesting……"

After a moment's hesitation, he shook his head inwardly, deciding not to make contact with this cycle of reincarnation for the time being.

If this so-called cycle of reincarnation is indeed the cycle of reincarnation he knew in his previous life, then it must involve many worlds.

The thing that allows reincarnators to travel between different worlds and dominate the cycle of reincarnation is definitely not something simple!

With his current strength, he is not entirely confident that he can deal with this cycle of reincarnation.

Since we're not confident, the best course of action right now is to avoid contact for the time being.

Of course, not having contact now doesn't mean we won't have contact in the future.

Su Chen's thoughts stirred slightly.

Without Wu Chong's complete awareness, the Immortal Bag System within him quietly underwent a change.

Soon, Wu Chong's Immortal Bag System gained independence, as well as effects such as causal positioning.

Even if Wu Chong leaves this world and returns to the cycle of reincarnation, the Immortal Bag System will still follow him.

Once his strength improves and he has sufficient confidence, Su Chen will naturally be able to find Wu Chong again by following the cause-and-effect positioning of the Immortal Bag System.

Then, through Wu Chong, we will find the Reincarnation Space. As for how to deal with the Reincarnation Space after finding it, that depends on the strength of the Reincarnation Space and whether there are enough benefits.

After doing all this, Su Chen remained calm, as if nothing had happened, and naturally looked away.

In the distance, Wu Chong, who had been on tenterhooks, finally relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that Su Chen was no longer staring at him.

Finally, we've stopped paying attention to that little villain!

When Su Chen was staring at him just now, he even wondered if he had somehow been exposed and if he was about to go see his deceased grandfather.

At the same time, he also broadened his horizons this time.

How could a minor villain manage to torment the protagonist so badly?!

Just as Wu Chong was thinking this,

Su Chen withdrew his gaze and looked up at the sky.

The sky remained overcast, with thick, swirling clouds and streaks of lightning flashing among the clouds, accompanied by continuous, muffled thunderclaps.

Su Chen remained calm and did not delay any longer.

Now that everything that needed to be dealt with has been taken care of, it's time to leave this Heavenly Spirit Realm.

With a thought, he stopped suppressing his aura and fully released his cultivation as a half-immortal in the Tribulation Transcending stage.

Boom!

In an instant, a terrifying aura erupted from Su Chen, sweeping across all directions and causing the surrounding spiritual energy to tremble violently.

The terrifying aura of a half-immortal in the Tribulation Transcending stage was revealed between heaven and earth without any concealment!

At that very moment, Su Chen clearly sensed a sense of rejection emanating from the Heavenly Spirit Realm.

At the same time, a completely opposite force of attraction emanated from the distant sky.

Boom!

The next instant, the sky began to tremble violently.

Under the watchful eyes of He Dongqi, Wang Teng, Su Linfeng, and others, a huge crack suddenly appeared in the sky.

A vast expanse of celestial energy surged forth.

Immediately afterwards, a huge pillar of immortal energy surged out from the crack.

Boom!

A dazzling celestial light pierced through heaven and earth, instantly enveloping Su Chen's entire body in a soft glow.

A powerful pulling force descended upon him, propelling his body rapidly into the air, heading towards the celestial rift in the sky.

During this process, a large amount of immortal energy overflowed from the pillar of light, and the rich immortal spiritual energy spread in all directions. In an instant, all kinds of auspicious and strange phenomena appeared between heaven and earth.

Auspicious clouds gather, and auspicious energy rises; streaks of brilliant sunset light intertwine across the sky…

Influenced by the celestial energy, the flowers, grasses, and trees grew wildly at a visible speed. The flowers that were originally in bud quickly bloomed, and the branches and leaves of each plant stretched out, lush and verdant.

Centered on the Qingyan Immortal Sect, the concentration of spiritual energy in the world began to rise wildly.

Looking at the astonishing ascension above their heads, Sect Leader He Dongqi, Wang Teng, Su Linfeng, and countless other cultivators who had been watching the Qingyan Immortal Sect's movements from afar were all shocked.

Besides shock, their eyes inevitably revealed a strong sense of envy, and even jealousy.

To become an immortal!

Isn't this the goal they've been pursuing ever since they embarked on the path of cultivation?

Cultivating for hundreds or thousands of years is all for the purpose of one day being able to overcome the heavenly tribulation, transcend the mortal world, ascend to the immortal realm, and become a true immortal.

Today, they witnessed with their own eyes that, after thousands of years, someone from the Celestial Realm has ascended to immortality once again!

Under the gaze of countless shocked and envious eyes, the young man dressed in moon-white robes, amidst the dazzling celestial light, drew ever closer to the celestial rift in the sky.

Finally, his figure disappeared into the crack, vanishing completely from everyone's sight.

Meanwhile, during this process, some old monsters lurking in the shadows did not refrain from having other ideas.

With the rift to the Immortal Realm right before them, some old monsters nearing the end of their lives hatched a clever plan: to rush in and sneak into the Immortal Realm before the rift closed.

Unfortunately, their expressions changed drastically as soon as they got close.

Near the rift in the Immortal Realm, there is a tremendous repulsive force. No matter how much spiritual power they unleash, they cannot get close to the rift and can only be blocked outside.

They could only watch helplessly as the rift in the celestial realm gradually closed until it was completely shut.

Soon, the celestial light gradually dissipated, and the auspicious clouds and auspicious energy also gradually disappeared. The sky, which had been illuminated in a dazzling way, returned to calm.

However, the effects of Su Chen's ascension did not end with the disappearance of the strange phenomenon.

As the cultivator who witnessed all of this departed, a series of stories about his ascension began to circulate in the cultivation world.

As these stories spread to the mortal world, people began to build temples for him, sculpt statues of him, and burn incense to worship him.

……

A vast and boundless immortal realm.

Northern Cold Immortal Realm.

Su Chen felt a powerful spatial force pulling him towards a certain place, where everything around him became blurry.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but Su Chen suddenly felt a blur before his eyes.

The next moment, I felt a real tactile sensation under my feet.

When he could see his surroundings clearly again, he found himself in a pool filled with ethereal beauty, or perhaps in an Ascension Pool.

The Ascension Pool is extremely vast, with white immortal energy rising from it. The rich immortal spiritual energy is almost tangible, swirling around the pool.

At this moment, he was not the only one in the Ascension Pool.

Exclamations of surprise came from all directions.

Where is this?

"Is this the Immortal Realm?!"

"This is celestial energy?!"

"Hahaha, I've finally become an immortal! I've finally ascended to the Immortal Realm!"

Excitement, elation, and disbelief rose and fell in waves.

Some people laughed loudly, some trembled with excitement, and others stood in the pool, looking around cautiously and calmly.

Su Chen glanced around and, with just a cursory look, he discovered that there were at least several hundred people in the Ascension Pool.

"So many Ascendants in the same period of time?"

A look of surprise flashed in Su Chen's eyes.

In the Celestial Spirit Realm, it might not produce even one Ascendant for thousands of years, yet now hundreds of people have gathered in just one Ascension Pool!

Just as Su Chen was slightly surprised.

Boom!

A terrifying divine power suddenly surged down from above.

Immediately afterwards, a majestic voice rang out from the top of the stinking cave.

Chapter 428 The Ascension Pool and Hundreds of Ascended Beings

A majestic voice rang out from the top of the stinking cave.

"This is the Northern Cold Immortal Realm, and I am a steward of the Yaohua Immortal Palace."

"You are now in the Ascension Pool. Only by absorbing the immortal energy within the Ascension Pool can your demigod bodies transform into true immortal bodies, and only then can you become true immortals."

"What are you all standing there for? Close your eyes and absorb the immortal energy from the Ascension Pool!"

As a majestic voice echoed, a middle-aged man dressed in blue, exuding a terrifying aura, slowly descended from above the Ascension Pool.

His gaze swept across the bloody, murky waters below, spreading out undisguisedly and instantly silencing the noisy Ascension Pool.

Looking at the middle-aged man before him, Shengxianchi unloaded his hands and looked at him with a strange, intimidating gaze.

Although they had just ascended to the Immortal Realm and were not yet familiar with its realms and conditions, they could clearly sense from the oppressive aura emanating from the other party that this Yaohua Immortal Palace steward's cultivation far surpassed their own!

They dared not delay, and one by one they hurriedly restrained their excited emotions, sat cross-legged in the Ascension Pool, and tried to absorb the immortal energy in the Ascension Pool as the middle-aged man had instructed.

Su Chen did not act immediately. He first glanced at the indifferent middle-aged man in blue, and then looked at the hundreds of Transcending Tribulation stage half-immortals who were already sitting cross-legged around him.

After sensing the situation briefly and confirming that there was no problem with the Ascension Pool, he slowly sat down cross-legged and began to absorb the immortal energy within it.

Having just ascended to the Immortal Realm, Su Chen was still unfamiliar with everything here and didn't want to stand out too much.

So when he ascended to this place, he suppressed the strange phenomena around him and the divine light in his double pupils.

These phenomena will not appear unless too much power is used.

Dressed in moon-white robes, sitting cross-legged in the Ascension Pool, he was quite unremarkable except for his outstanding appearance and temperament.

Because the water in the Ascension Pool is formed from the liquefaction of extremely concentrated immortal energy, the fish are not very active and the disturbances are not significant.

Around most people's bodies, only a small vortex appeared, and wisps of immortal energy slowly entered their bodies along the vortex, cleansing their semi-immortal bodies.

Su Chen observed the surrounding situation and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.

To avoid appearing too unusual, he didn't intend to make any alarming noise and quietly began to absorb the immortal energy from the Ascension Pool.

As the liquefied immortal energy entered his body, Su Chen immediately felt that his Tribulation Transcending stage half-immortal body began to transform at an extremely rapid speed.

The physical body, spiritual power, and even the entire level of life are rapidly changing under the cleansing of the immortal energy.

The body of a half-immortal is transforming into the body of a true immortal!

At the same time, his cultivation aura was also constantly rising!

As Su Chen continued to absorb the immortal energy, the water level in the Ascension Pool gradually and silently decreased.

However, his actions were so well concealed, and the Ascension Pool was extremely vast and deep, surrounded by a dense, murky atmosphere, that no one noticed anything amiss.

At the same time, he only advanced from a half-immortal in the Tribulation Transcending stage to a true immortal. For the vast Ascension Pool, this amount of consumption was nothing.

Even with Su Chen's foundation, the amount of immortal energy required for him to transform into a true immortal body is dozens of times that of other ascendants, yet it is still not particularly noticeable within the entire Ascension Pool.

Just as Su Chen was quietly absorbing the immortal energy from the Ascension Pool, he once again heard the incessant voice of the spirit of the Tongtian Ancient Pagoda in his ears.

“Young man, you have now arrived in the Immortal Realm. Although you are incredibly talented, you have just ascended and have no background or power to rely on. It is not as easy as you imagine for a rogue cultivator to survive in the Immortal Realm.”
