I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2090: Chapter 991: Nine Heavens Demon Vibration Ancestor Master

Yuan Zhen, who was refining Spiritual Energy at Tongtian Peak, suddenly seemed to sense something and abruptly opened her eyes.

There was nothing in front of her, but she immediately turned around and, sure enough, saw a figure with crane-like hair and a youthful appearance standing in front of the Tongtian Refining Road Tower.

“Greetings, Ancestor!”

Upon seeing Yuan Qingque, Yuan Zhen immediately bowed.

“Hmm, I came to handle some matters. You should get ready, as I’ll be taking you to the battlefield at the border later.”

Yuan Qingque waved his hand, indicating Yuan Zhen to rise; then his entire figure suddenly became illusory and disappeared in front of the tower.

Watching this scene, Yuan Zhen vaguely guessed some things, and couldn’t help but feel shocked.

But she knew that with her own status, in the face of the major forces of East Continent, all she could do was comply.

There are two ways to enter the Tongtian Refining Road Tower.

One is the secret technique of the Nine Heavens Morality Sect, allowing direct access to the highest Sixth Layer.

The other is to start from the bottom of the tower and climb up layer by layer.

In the past, Yuan Qingque would directly enter the Sixth Layer, but today is his last visit to this tower, so he thought he would stroll around again.

Yuan Qingque gently raised his hand, the portal at the bottom of the tower already opened, revealing a passage.

And in this instant, roars started to echo, and countless demonic beasts with True Spirit Bloodlines began to rush madly towards the opened passage.

As Yuan Qingque stepped in, an immense and formless True Qi erupted, sending all the rushing demonic beasts flying back, crashing into the walls surrounding the tower.

If these demonic beasts weren’t of use, just that alone would have reduced them to meat paste.

Yuan Qingque gracefully flew into the first layer, the passage behind him slowly closing as if it had never been opened.

Inside the tower, it was dim, but threads of light penetrated from outside, faintly illuminating the grotesque demon beasts.

Yuan Qingque hadn’t been below the sixth layer for a long time, and these low-level demonic beasts hadn’t been here long, so they hardly recognized him.

But after that earlier strike, all demonic beasts looked at him with eyes full of fear.

The Demon Venerable strolled a bit and found it uninteresting, thus directly headed towards the top of the tower.

The Fifth Layer is the Demon Venerable’s prison.

Compared to the four layers below, this appeared like a complete small world, with starlight shining from the top and a faint scent of fresh grass in the air.

At the very center was a white mist, inside which a figure sat cross-legged, the Demon Venerable himself.

The moment he saw Yuan Qingque ascending, a trace of surprise appeared in the Demon Venerable’s eyes.

Although it was anticipated when the Tongtian Refining Road Tower began to be frequently activated, seeing this first Deity Transformation of East Continent in person still evoked a sense of awe towards the human race’s inherent advantages.

“You have indeed taken that step.”

The Demon Venerable’s voice reverberated within the tower, low and penetrating.

Yuan Qingque smiled faintly. After untangling his limitations, he faced no more shackles and effortlessly stepped into the Cultivating Void.

However, to fully step through and achieve Cultivating Void would necessitate ascending and enduring a tribulation, so he currently maintained one foot in the Deity Transformation and one foot at the threshold of the Cultivating Void.

The Demon Venerable, too, a Deity Transformation Peak existence, could see that Yuan Qingque had already broken through upon seeing him now.

This was a realm he had yearned for, yet after thousands of years, he could not even glimpse its threshold.

It was thus he lamented humanity’s born superiority.

Though their lifespan falls short of True Spirits’, in cultivation, there always emerge those of extraordinary talent, quickly overshadowing the effort of thousands of years.

“You too, as a blessed demonic beast, reaching such a Realm is truly not easy; it would be a pity to kill you. Today, I offer you two choices.”

“One, die within the Tongtian Refining Road Tower and be refined into a Great Dao Pill, as a resource for my disciple’s Deity Transformation.”

“Two, join me like that Yellow Dragon, passing through the Ascendence Heavenly Tribulation together. If we successfully reach the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm, I will certainly petition the ancestor to grant you the status of a Demon Immortal.”

After Yuan Qingque finished speaking, the white mist around the Demon Venerable began to churn violently as if brewing some great power, causing the entire Fifth Layer to faintly tremble.

Yet Yuan Qingque remained unmoved, standing calmly in his place.

As of now, he was indeed invincible in the Mortal Realm.

“You want me to help you withstand the Ninth Level Heavenly Tribulation.”

The Demon Venerable’s tone was slightly icy.

Back when the Yi Yuan True Monarch was about to ascend, why did he insist on subduing that Rank-5 Yellow Dragon of Yun Meng Ze? Apart from reasons of fate, it was due to the ascension tribulation. If one carried a contracted spirit beast, it would be viewed as one with the cultivator under the rules of heaven and earth.

This way, the power of the Ninth Level Heavenly Tribulation would be triggered by the stronger of the two, the cultivator or the spirit beast.

But the cultivator could also join forces with the spirit beast to cross the tribulation.

Equivalent to splitting the tenfold ascension tribulation equally between the cultivator and the spirit beast.

However, between a cultivator and a spirit beast, except for those who grew up together, living and dying as one, otherwise a hierarchy must be established.

After subduing the Yellow Dragon, Yi Yuan True Monarch established a contract, obligating the latter to acknowledge him as its master and exert all effort during the ascension tribulation.

Similarly, there was no basis of trust between the Demon Venerable and Yuan Qingque. To ascend together and leave, a blood pact prohibiting rebellion was a must.

There’s also the biggest problem.

That is, during the ascension, Yuan Qingque would be in the Cultivating Void, but the Demon Venerable might not be.
