Nine Revolutions Star Technique

”What’s wrong?”

Seeing Ye Qingchen not responding, Du Gang followed his spiritual sense deeper, only to find a large shadow in the depths of the seabed. However, the surrounding seawater blocked his senses, leaving him unable to discern what it was!

”A palace!”

Ye Qingchen squinted his eyes.

On the day the great calamity struck, the entire Celestial Gate was shattered. He speculated that the hundreds of islands within the Enchanting Sea Region were the aftermath of that ancient battle. Yet, he never expected a giant palace to be hidden beneath this sea!

”A palace?”

Everyone exclaimed in shock.

”Indeed!”

Ye Qingchen nodded slightly.

At this moment, he unleashed his True Qi, a surging power quickly cleared a hundred feet of space around him, and with waves crashing around him, the seawater parted in front of him. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he dove into the sea.

’Why is this palace hidden underwater? Could it be related to the previous great calamity?’ Ye Qingchen pondered silently.

Splash!

The terrifying pressure at the seabed crushed against Ye Qingchen’s shield, causing the cyan light shield to creak. Moreover, there were terrifying undercurrents sweeping through!

If an ordinary Half-Step Celestial Immortal were caught in it, they would be shredded instantly.

”Crackle!”

With shield in hand, Ye Qingchen advanced step by step into the depths. The deeper he went, the greater the pressure of the water, and the more terrifying the undercurrents became. This wasn’t ordinary seawater; it was the pure essence of fire, each drop weighing hundreds of pounds.

The horrifying force bore down, overwhelming in its might. He hadn’t traversed even half of the distance, and the cyan light shield was already crackling, covered in cracks.

”With my current ability, I can cover at most three-tenths of the distance. If I forcefully go further, it won’t add much more. It’s better to cultivate for a while longer and wait for Su Moran to arrive!”

With that thought, Ye Qingchen temporarily changed his mind.

Du Gang, Du Tingyu, and the others, seeing Ye Qingchen’s reluctance to leave, had no choice but to stay. Fortunately, they were all top Earth Immortals, capable of fasting, so there wasn’t much of an issue.

After arranging everything, Ye Qingchen began his secluded cultivation.

One day, two days, three days…

With an inexhaustible supply of abundant Spiritual Qi and the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures he had gathered, Ye Qingchen’s strength visibly soared.

...

Meanwhile.

The East Sea.

After the rain, the sky was clear with not a cloud in sight. On the undulating sea, a massive Spiritual Boat glided along the water. On the boat, an older man and his grandson were chatting leisurely.

”Master, with your high cultivation, why don’t you fly straight to the East Sea? Taking this Spiritual Boat is so leisurely; who knows when we’ll get there? Aren’t you also waiting for Mr. Ye to refine pills and detoxify you?”

The child, about five or six years old, walked and sat with a certain flair. At the moment, he was sighing heavily with boredom: ”You’re a top-level Earth Immortal after all!”

The old man stood by, hands clasped behind his back. Though his aura was robust, his face showed a trace of black, clearly poisoned.

Years ago.

He was poisoned while exploring ruins. He searched the Southern Heaven and Extreme North, finding no remedy. Hence, he came to the East Sea, planning to pass on his life’s teachings to a descendant before his end.

But who would have thought, he witnessed Ye Qingchen slay Zou Ji Dao, and later learned that the former could resolve his severe poisoning. Overjoyed, he hurriedly gathered Heavenly and Earthly Treasures with old friends to have Ye Qingchen refine a great elixir for him!

”This is the East Sea! Beneath these seas are endless terrifying sea monsters. If we forcefully cross, we might lose our lives!” The old man shook his head.

”But how did Mr. Ye and Zou Ji Dao cross the sea?” the grandson curiously asked.

”Mr. Ye is a powerhouse of his time, and Zou Ji Dao was a Celestial Immortal. How could I compare?” The old man chuckled bitterly, ”If an ordinary person crossed the sea, they wouldn’t get halfway before being torn to shreds!”

The grandson, disbelieving, leapt up pointing to the distance, shouting: ”Grandpa, could he be a Celestial Immortal too?”

Boom!

The old man, hearing this, trembled, hastily looking into the distance.

And saw.

A figure, crossing the sea from afar, with the waves beneath his feet as steady as land. His entire aura was vanished, seemingly merged with the heavens and earth. Noticing the gaze, the figure casually glanced over.

Whoosh!

The instant their gazes met, the old man felt his soul shake, as if it were torn apart.

”Celestial Immortal!”

The old man quickly bowed his head, clutching his young disciple, bowing hurriedly to the ground.

”Why has another Celestial Immortal arrived?”

”Could he be here for Mr. Ye?”

Watching that figure, hands behind his back, leisurely heading towards Star Gathering Scattered Island, the old man’s heart was filled with endless waves of astonishment. That aura was a hundred times more terrifying than Zou Ji Dao on that day!

...

The East Sea.

Cyan Cloud Island.

After Zou Ji Dao perished, Cyan Cloud Island came under Luo Lin’an’s control.

At this moment.

Multicolored rays of light continuously appeared. Simultaneously, Circulation Spiritual Qi gathered, forming a hundred-mile canopy, covering the sky.

”Someone is breaking through to Celestial Immortal!”

”It’s Su Moran!”

”First it was Zou Ji Dao who broke into Celestial Immortal, and now Su Moran is ascending!”

”What is going on? Celestial Immortals, unseen for centuries, are appearing one after another?”

Someone exclaimed in fear.

But.

This phenomenon persisted for a long time.

Today.

Luo Lin’an routinely visited the Quiet Chamber but didn’t hold much hope, as breaking through to Celestial Immortal wasn’t easy.

Suddenly!

A dazzling cyan light shot straight from the Quiet Chamber into the sky, piercing the heavens. From afar, the cyan beam seemed to support the entire sky.

”What is this?”

Everyone looked up in shock.

And saw.

In the cyan glow, a young maiden silently walked out.

The maiden wore a flowing cyan gown, resembling a noble lady, her entire body sparkling like jade, with a cyan bracelet on her fair wrist. This maiden was Su Moran!

”Sister Su, congratulations, you’ve finally reached Celestial Immortal!”

Luo Lin’an couldn’t contain her joy.

Su Moran nodded and was about to speak when suddenly, a mocking voice interrupted:

”Pity!”

”Even if you reach Celestial Immortal, you’ll be the shortest-lived Celestial Immortal in the Kunlun Realm!”

Luo Lin’an frowned and quickly looked over, eyes narrowing immediately. She saw a man in flowing robes, wearing a jade crown, standing there with a faint mocking smile on his face.
