Chapter 1261: Chapter 115 Chapter 1261: Chapter 115 âBrother Shao, when is your sect planning to depart for the Cloud Sky Realm?â
Above the vast sky, clouds gathered and dispersed.
Four rays of light invisible to the naked eye streaked across at incredible speeds.
Within them, a voice audible only to the four resonated.
It was Shao Yangzi and his three companions on their way to the lair of the Kingdom of Immortals.
Hearing the words of Xi Lingbo, dressed in a robe decorated with the Eight Trigrams, Shao Yangzi pondered for a moment before responding,
âAccording to the message left by our Patriarch, when the Earthâs native energy is at its weakest, the obstacles posed by the Little Cang World to us are also at their weakest.
Moreover, the Patriarch predicted that at this very moment, not far from the boundary of Little Cang World, a Boundary Sea Vortex would appear.
We could just take the Treasure Raft, enter the vortex, and cross millions of miles, greatly shortening our journeyâŚâ
âItâs also fortunate that this Boundary Sea Vortex exists, otherwise, relying solely on the spirit materials from within the Boundary to build the Treasure Raft, breaking free from the constraints of Little Cang World would already require all our strength.
...
In this vast Boundary Sea, it would likely be destroyed after not lasting long.â
Xi Lingbo, hearing this, showed an expression of agreement:
âChongyuan Patriarch never leaves anything to chance, truly admirable for us juniors.â
The Elder from the Longevity Sect could not help but huff lightly.

Xi Lingbo then coughed:
âQitian Patriarch, compassionate and merciful, unwilling to abandon the beings of this land, such noble aspirations are indeed beyond our reach.â
Elder Xia, upon hearing this, his expression slightly cleared, and then he sighed:
âTaoist Friend Xi, Brother Shao, donât take offense, I, Elder Xia, speak merely based on the situation.
Even with this Boundary Sea Vortex allowing us to cross millions of miles, the risks within the Boundary Sea are unpredictable and perilous, a slight misstep could lead to total devastationâŚ
Our sect has discussed this many times, but ultimately, we still feel the danger is too great, and itâs truly a last resort.â
âThe Little Cang World may be small, but it can still protect us.
While we cannot ascend to higher stages and there are risks of demotion from heaven and earth, at least we have a way to survive.
Isnât the purpose of becoming an Immortal or Ancestor to achieve eternal life?
If we stay in this realm, like us cultivators who have achieved Immortal Ascension, even if we are physically gone, our spirits can enter this realm and our disciples could help us set foot on the cultivation path once more, allowing us to live another life.â
âAfter all, compared to the Unification and Crossing Tribulation beings from the Cloud Sky Realm, what difference does it make?â
âMoreover, as heaven and earth wax and wane, from extreme decline may come prosperity.
Who can say for certain if a day of regain isnât coming?â
Hearing the words of Elder Xia, Shao Yangzi, Xi Lingbo, and Ren Xiao all fell into solemn silence.
Following this, Shao Yangzi reflected,
âBrother Xiaâs words, Shao also understands.
Staying or leaving is a matter of personal judgment, and neither choice is wrong.
Brother Xia, you need not distress your Dao-heart over this.â
Elder Xia nodded, then half-jokingly said:
âItâs also unfortunate that your sectâs Tribulation Crossing Raft isnât big enough to accommodate the million members of the Longevity SectââŹÂŚ Otherwise, who knows, we might have joined your sect.â
Shao Yangzi chuckled lightly:
âI understand the concerns of both Brother Xia and Brother Su.
Disciples are dear to us, like the flesh of our palms and the backs of our hands, how could we abandon any of them?â
To this, Xi Lingbo seemed less burdened.
Youxian Temple was known for its stringent recruitment, admitting very few disciples, with only a handful every century.
Elder Xia shook his head and lamented:
âWeâve also tightened our ranks, but as you know, our sect members, to put it crudely, are tough to kill, each outliving their peers significantly.
Even with strict intake, numbers keep growing as they have children who then have more childrenâŚ
Surely, we canât interfere with that, can we?â
âYou say that as if a long Lifespan isnât a good thing,â Xi Lingbo said with a light laugh.
Elder Xia also nodded with a smile, then his expression turned serious:
âOnce weâve dealt with the Kingdom of Immortals, as well as Han Yanzi and Shangguan Ren, that mess, we might finally have some peace, and itâs still better to cozy up back at our sect.â
Elder Xiaâs words returned the originally slightly relaxed atmosphere to one of tension.
At that moment, something dawned on the four of them.
The streams of light halted.
The four looked up, only to see a massive dark cloud covering half of the sky to the east, rapidly spreading outward.
Within it, countless bolts of lightning flickered!
âIs thisââŹÂŚ an Ascension Tribulation descending from the Boundary Sea?
âIs someone Crossing Tribulation?!â
Their expressions changed slightly.
And soon, they saw another Thunder Tribulation pressing down upon the storm cloud.
From the east, a voice filled with despair and rage flew across:
âLet these beings and this world be buried with this old man!â
âHave the Ascension Tribulation and Little Cang Worldâs Thunder Tribulation merged?
Yeâs Ancestor from Huangji Continent?!â
âOh no, heâs really making his move!â
The faces of Shao Yangzi and his companions changed drastically.
Under their stunned gaze,
A giant forcefully tore open the sky with his hands!
And not stopping there, he furiously rammed his head against the heavens!
Above them, a giant black hole suddenly split open!
This appeared to be a signal.
âCrack!â
Then, around this black hole, fissures burst open one after another, sending countless fragments falling, with more tiny black holes appearing in the sky.
Even above the Fenglin Continent, a huge irregular black rift formed, quickly surrounded by hundreds of large and small cracks stretching across the north, south, east, and west of the Fenglin ContinentââŹÂŚ
The four stared blankly at the scene, feeling as if they had been doused from head to toe in cold water.
Chilling to the marrow!
âHow can he, how can he be so, so ruthlessââŹÂŚâ
Elder Xia opened his mouth to curse in rage, but he felt so weak that he couldnât utter a word.
