As Hong Xue set foot inside the Immortal Ascension Path, the dragon and phoenix apparitions swirled around him.
The other cultivators were in awe, and so were the few cultivators behind him. They looked at him with faces filled with admiration.
“As expected of Brother Hong. You are really amazing!”
“Yeah, you are awesome!”
“They say the Immortal Ascension Path welcomed Immortals, but Brother Hong’s arrival has prompted the auspicious apparitions of dragons and phoenixes. This means that you will become an Immortal in the future! Congratulations, Brother Hong!”
The Immortal Progenies praised and flattered him.
Hong Xue laughed and said, “You guys are too kind.”
He continued down the path with the dragon and phoenix apparitions swirling above him. He looked as dignified as an Immortal who had just become one.
“Tsk. What’s there to be proud of? Boss, come one. Let’s show them what a genius can do.” Lil Fox clicked her tongue and tugged Chu Kuangren’s sleeve, signaling him to enter the Immortal Ascension Path.
Chu Kuangren said, “Be patient.”
The auspicious dragon and phoenix phenomenon and the Immortal Progeny title were all nothing but fancy stuff that he had long seen passed.
His own strength was the only insurance he could trust.
Lil Fox stuck her tongue out.
Meanwhile, Jian Sanjue and the others began to get excited.
“What do you think will happen when Brother Chu enters the Immortal Ascension Path? How would it react? How many dragons and phoenixes will appear?” Jian Sanjue asked.
“I don’t know, but one thing is for sure. It will definitely be more than Hong Xue’s.”
“I agree. Brother Chu’s talent and strength are much better than Hong Xue’s. I believe there will be at least a dozen dragons and phoenix apparitions.”
The discussion slowly gained heat. Even all Planet Jin’s First Seat had for Chu Kuangren was admiration and awe.
Aside from Planet Jin’s First Seat, who knew the power Chu Kuangren possessed, everyone also looked at Chu Kuangren excitedly.
After all, based on what Chu Kuangren had displayed, he was certainly at the level of a Supreme Immortal Progeny. He was destined to garner attention.
“I’ve been here for many months, and the strongest Supreme Immortal Progeny I’ve seen has drawn out around forty dragons and phoenixes.”
“I wonder how many will Chu Kuangren draw out?”
“I’ve been here longer than you to be lucky enough to see a King Immortal Progeny drew out a hundred dragons and phoenixes! The scene was so stunning.”
“Do you think Chu Kuangren is at the level of a King Immortal Progeny?”
“Who knows? Can’t say for sure…”
Countless cultivators were engaged in a heated discussion, but none caught Chu Kuangren’s attention. He could not be bothered at all.
As such, he came to the entrance of the Immortal Ascension Path with Lil Fox and looked at the towering white pillars curiously.
The pillars were not real.
They were more like apparitions of some kind of Daoist pattern. No wonder all those cultivators were willing to stay here for months just to gain insights on the pillars.
“Let’s go, Boss.”
“Mmhm.” Chu Kuangren nodded.
Then, he set foot into the Immortal Ascension Path.
The moment he took his first step, the entire path trembled, and the pillars started to glow brightly.
“What’s going on!?”
“What the heck? He hasn’t even come in!”
Everyone else looked at Chu Kuangren with the utmost astonishment.
It was just his first step, and the entire path trembled.
If he entered the path fully, what else would happen?
The trembling path did not stop Chu Kuangren from going in. He walked forward slowly and entered the Immortal Ascension Path.
At that moment, all nine hundred and ninety-nine white pillars around the Immortal Ascension Path glowed in white all at once. The blinding light felt like a big bang lighting up the entire universe, and countless great ones throughout the universe sensed the commotion at the Immortal Ascension Path.
“What happened at the Immortal Ascension Path?”
“This commotion… It has never been recorded in history before. Does it mean a new King Immortal Progeny or even an Immortal has appeared?”
“Not even the Immortal Progenies, True Dragon, and Godly Phoenix could cause such a commotion. No, not even a real Immortal could cause this. What is happening at the Immortal Ascension Path?”
Countless great ones in the universe looked curiously at the direction of the Immortal Ascension Path.
Meanwhile, inside the Immortal Ascension Path, the entire path started to tremble the moment Chu Kuangren walked in. As the dragons and phoenixes on all the nine hundred and ninety-nine white pillars came alive, the roars and caws from the mythical beasts shook heaven and earth.
Apparitions of dragons and phoenixes rose to the sky, circling above him. Their auspicious glow lit up the sky.
On top of that, the dragon and phoenix apparitions of other Immortal Progenies started to flock over to Chu Kuangren as if they were being summoned.
Ten!
One hundred!
A thousand!
Nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine dragons and Nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine phoenixes!
At the end, all the dragons and phoenixes around the Immortal Ascension Path came alive.
All of a sudden, the entire sky above the Immortal Ascension Path was filled with dragons and phoenixes. The majestic scene complemented the figure in a white robe, making him look like the Supreme Immortal King.
The Immortal Ascension Path, the path that welcomed Immortals, reacted like it was welcoming the king of the Immortal World.
Everyone else was so in awe that their jaws dropped.
They were all stupefied by the scene.
Even Jian Sanjue and the others, who had witnessed Chu Kuangren’s powers back at Violet Gold Galaxy, could not help but be stunned by the scene.
It was far beyond the level of an Immortal Progeny.
“Who… exactly is he?”
“Oh my goodness! He will definitely become an Immortal!”
“Nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine dragons and phoenixes welcomed his arrival. According to ancient legends, this phenomenon will only happen when welcoming the Immortal King! Who exactly is he?!”
Among all the stupefied cultivators was Hong Xue.
He, too, shared the same look with others.
A moment ago, he was thinking about surpassing the man before his eyes.
Now, it felt like a joke.
He entered the path and was welcomed by several dragons and phoenixes, whereas Chu Kuangren’s entrance trembled the entire path and all dragons and phoenixes came.
He was no match for Chu Kuangren.
None. There was no room for comparison.
He had lost thoroughly, and he was defeated before it even started.
Hong Xue could not help but feel despair. At that moment, the urge to surpass Chu Kuangren died off.
His Daoist core was at the brink of collapsing.
The only one at the scene who remained calm was Chu Kuangren himself. His white robes were as white as snow, and the look on his face was as calm as the sea.
The trembling of the Immortal Ascension Path and the astonishment on everyone’s face did not seem to bother him at all. With countless apparitions of dragons and phoenixes above him, he took firm steps towards the end of the path.
“Boss, Boss! Wait for me!”
Lil Fox only regained her composure after Chu Kuangren went ahead, and she quickly gave chase to Chu Kuangren.
After seeing what happened, she was determined to follow Chu Kuangren more than ever.
She knew that Chu Kuangren was the real big boss here.
By following him, she would not have to worry about her future anymore.
Now, even if Chu Kuangren wanted to shun Lil Fox away with a broom, she might not leave.
Lil Fox chased after Chu Kuangren and held his sleeve. As she glanced at the majestic scene of endless dragons and phoenixes above the sky, it boosted her confidence and pride so much that she stuck her chest up and strutted forward proudly.
A while later, Chu Kuangren arrived at the end of the path, where a towering door was before him. He took a glance at it before going in.
After that, he found himself standing in the sky.
Below his feet were connecting mountain ridges, rivers and countless rare beasts traversing the land.
“Is this the Immortal World?” Chu Kuangren mumbled.
He could feel the abundance of spiritual power in the air and the faint but ubiquitous ripples of Dao.
He mobilized his Emperor thought, and the map of the terrain across a hundred million kilometers appeared in his mind.
Beasts, mountain ridges, spirit mine, Daoist herbs…
All kinds of scenes and treasures appeared one after another.
“So this is the Immortal World? Awesome!”
Lil Fox walked out from behind him.
She could not help but be astonished by the grand view of the Immortal World.
