Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 1076 - 468: Upper Realm Interrogation_2

It can even accurately isolate Immortals and Mortals, blocking anyone from approaching the Immortal Door.

But this time, it completely overlooked Ning Qi.

Ning Qi did not think he had the power to do so now, so needless to say, it must be the power of the golden key.

After Ning Qi took out the golden key, he discovered that the golden key actively released golden Immortal Radiance, enveloping him and helping him break through the resistance of the Immortal Door.

He could even mobilize a portion of the golden Immortal Radiance on it.

Ning Qi directly aimed at the Saint Ancestor, separating a portion of the golden Immortal Radiance, and let it fall on the Saint Ancestor.

The golden Immortal Radiance on him was even more dazzling compared to the Saint Ancestor’s, akin to the sun in the sky.

If the Immortal Radiance on the Saint Ancestor is the sunlight that scatters, then the Immortal Radiance on Ning Qi comes from above the sun.

The Saint Ancestor did not know where Ning Qi’s golden Immortal Radiance came from, but at that moment, he felt as if the immortal power within him had increased significantly.

”What is this...”

This obvious feeling made the Saint Ancestor suddenly feel that the Immortal Door seemed mediocre.

Why isn’t it stronger than the power Ning Qi gives him?

”Do you have any special feelings?”

Ning Qi inquired.

As the current Immortal Door was not one he had condensed, he still had to rely on the Saint Ancestor to provide relevant information.

Saint Ancestor did not immediately answer.

He instead moved his muscles and bones, and once again pushed the golden Immortal Door.

Creaaak...

In the distance, the Sea Ancestor sat sideways on the Spirit Jade Coffin.

The two people in front of the golden Immortal Door fell into her pupils, resembling two suns.

However, Ning Qi was visibly much brighter, even somewhat dazzling.

She saw the Saint Ancestor exerting force again, continuing to push the Immortal Door.

The Immortal Door creaked. Previously, the Saint Ancestor pushed it relatively slowly, but now it seemed to get smoother and smoother.

Sea Ancestor couldn’t help but slightly cover her lips to hide the shock in her heart.

This little guy once again refreshed her understanding.

”Realm Venerable, just how many secrets are hidden within you?”

She couldn’t help but question in her heart.

The golden Immortal Door opened wider, and the Immortal Radiance emitted from inside increased.

They shone not only on the Saint Ancestor but also on Ning Qi beside him.

Both bathed in Immortal Radiance, but strangely, both felt that the Immortal Radiance was only more in quantity, yet in quality, it was still inferior to the Immortal Radiance emitted from the golden key in Ning Qi’s hand.

The Saint Ancestor pushed the Immortal Door to three-thirds unopened, then temporarily stopped.

Inside, a voice was finally heard again.

”Person from the Lower Realm, why do you not respond? Have you not become an Immortal and dare to disdain us, Upper Immortals?”

This time, Ning Qi unexpectedly clearly heard the voice from inside the Immortal Door.

”Indeed someone is here!”

Saint Ancestor felt a bit surprised, clearly Ning Qi couldn’t hear it before.

But it’s good this way; no need to repeat it to Ning Qi again.

”Reply to them.”

Ning Qi said softly beside him.

He did not transmit sound but spoke softly to the Saint Ancestor directly.

Yet Ning Qi adopted the Secret Technique, condensing the sound into a thread of sound and covering it with the power of the golden key.

He wanted to know whether the Immortals behind the Immortal Door could perceive it this way.

Saint Ancestor nodded slightly and began to respond to the question from the Immortals behind the Immortal Door.

”I am a cultivator from the Vast Realm, ascending to Immortal for the first time, so I am a bit nervous. I hope the Upper Immortals can understand.”

After a while, it seemed the other side received the echo of the Saint Ancestor.

A lofty celestial voice conveyed over, appearing extremely cold.

”Person from the Lower Realm, is your location in the Far East Boundary Sea Fifteenth District?”

Upon hearing this, the Saint Ancestor and Ning Qi were bewildered.

The other side obviously knew more about the Boundary Sea than them, knowing what area they were in the Boundary Sea.

The Far East Boundary Sea, clearly a direction for the entire Boundary Sea, and the Fifteenth District at least implied that there were at least fifteen areas in the Far East Boundary Sea.

Saint Ancestor responded again:

”Sorry, I don’t know where I am in the Boundary Sea? I’ve never left the Vast Realm since birth.”

His reply transmitted over, and this time the response was much quicker.

”Humph, person from the Lower Realm, have you forgotten your own affiliation?”

Saint Ancestor remained silent for a few seconds, then began to perform before Ning Qi.

”I don’t know where the Upper Realm Immortal Venerable is located. We truly are unclear about where we are in the Boundary Sea, and even about where we are to go after becoming Immortal.”

The other side seemed to pause, responding only after a while:

”You continue to push the Immortal Door; we want to test your potential to see if it’s sufficient for becoming an Immortal.”

This was evidently a procrastination phrase.

The Saint Ancestor looked at Ning Qi, who nodded.

So, the Saint Ancestor continued to push the Immortal Door.

Rumble!

The extremely heavy golden Immortal Door opened further and further, the Divine Text on it seemed to come to life, trying to fly off the Immortal Door, drill into the Saint Ancestor’s body, assisting him in transforming from Mortal to Immortal.

The Saint Ancestor continued pushing, finally leaving only one final step.

Just one step away, and the golden Immortal Door could be completely opened.

He had seen the Mountain Ancestor open the Immortal Door before and knew that once completed, there would be no turning back.

The Immortal Door would completely transform into immortal power and instilled into his body, helping him transform into an Immortal.

Saint Ancestor pretended to be panting, seemingly lacking strength, letting the golden Immortal Door retreat considerably.

”Immortal Venerable, I can’t open it at once, need to wait a bit longer.”

Ning Qi beside him almost laughed at Saint Ancestor’s poor acting skills, wondering if the other side could truly detect his situation.

He was curious about how the other side was sensing the people from the Lower Realm.

Was it through images, aura, or something else?

But as of now, it seemed the other side was not using images to sense, otherwise, his presence would have been discovered long ago.

Ning Qi’s eyes turned to the golden Immortal Door within.

At this moment, a clearer image appeared in his eyes.

He saw a piece of Immortal Stone, crystal-clear and emitting golden Immortal Radiance.

And this Immortal Stone seemed to reflect some images.

Ning Qi vaguely saw two figures and a presence similar to a pavilion.

Of course, he couldn’t see it clearly.

”Do you see an image before you?”

Ning Qi transmitted sound to inquire the Saint Ancestor.

Saint Ancestor shook his head in confusion.

”What image? I only see a sea of gold before me.”

Ning Qi frowned.

”You can’t see it?”

Again, a celestial voice came from the other side.

”Person from the Lower Realm, I have more to ask you. Only by passing our tests and trials will we record your name in the celestial register, and then provide you the way to our Great Wilderness Immortal Realm, you must answer truthfully.”

Saint Ancestor showed respect and said, ”Yes, please ask, Immortal Venerable!”

Ning Qi also heard these words, his heart moved.

”Great Wilderness Immortal Realm? Seems the force controlling the Immortal Door belongs to them. One must be registered by them to decide whether people from the Lower Realm can enter the Immortal Realm.”

In Ning Qi’s heart, the last remaining illusion about the Immortal Realm was broken.

Indeed, the Immortal Realm is not such an easy place to enter, nor a carefree paradise for Immortals.

Ning Qi saw the two figures on the opposite side slightly sway.

They seemed to be discussing something but couldn’t be heard.

After a while, one of the figures spoke again:

”I ask you, does your Boundary Sea area have many approaching Immortality? The Immortal Door has a usage record, don’t try to deceive us, or you won’t be able to enter the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm.”

Saint Ancestor glanced at Ning Qi.

Then Ning Qi nodded again.

Saint Ancestor said, ”Reply to Immortal Venerable, in our location indeed, three people are preparing to become Immortal.”

”Humph, three people? We detected earlier another person who condensed the Silver Immortal Door, named Haoshan.”

Regarding this, Saint Ancestor could only reply half truthfully and half falsely:

”That person named Haoshan is our sworn enemy, and we three managed to unite and kill him.”

The other side fell silent, seemingly contemplating the authenticity of this matter.

”You three could reverse and attack Immortals?”

A voice with an obviously different tone asked.

This further confirmed to Ning Qi that there were indeed two people on the opposite side.

”I dare not lie. If Immortal Venerable doesn’t believe it, I have no other way.”

”Alright, we are willing to believe you for now, push open the golden Immortal Door, and when you do, we’ll inform you on how to proceed to the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm.”

The other side continuously insisted the Saint Ancestor fully push open the Immortal Door.

Ning Qi always felt that once the Immortal Door was pushed open, perhaps the other side could perceive more things.
