261 Ascending

The two Heavenly Saints didn't have a chance to fight back at all. The blood splashed like a fountain as it painted the the surroundings deep red.

They were killed instantly. In a blink of an eye, their heads rolled on the ground.

Owner Bu knew that the sword was insanely powerful since it was a World Treasure. But he couldn't help but be amazed of how powerful this sword was during an actual battle.

It made him as powerful as Fate Emperors!

Take note, Fate Emperors were the apex existence of Immortal. So just imagine that, how strong and respected were they? Though he got the power because of the sword boosting his cultivation, it still remained a fact that he has a power almost on par with them.

"It seems that you have already stabilized well." Jin Rou smiled, "That's a good thing."

"Yes." Owner Bu nodded.

Jin Rou looked at a distant horizon, he remained quiet for a few minutes before saying, "Do you know the portal that leads to True?"

"Yes, Youngmaster Jin." Owner Bu answered truthfully, "But as far as I know, there are five portals going to True. And they are only available after resting for hundred thousands of years. Besides, only one at a time is opened."

"It's okay. As long as we find a portal." Jin Rou said, "Leave the rest to me."

"Oh, right." Owner Bu almost forgot who Jin Rou was and scratched his head, "Then let's go with the nearest one here. It's just a few hundred kilometers away from here. If we fly, we will be there in 4 hours at least."

"Then lead the way." Jin Rou said.

And soon, the duo flew to the direction of east.

—

After more than four hours, the duo had finally reached the place.

It was a massive cave as big as the largest dome ever created. It stood tall and mighty as if it was a terrifying monster with a mouth wide open. It gave off a vibe that would make anyone uncomfortable.

"Youngmaster Jin, this is called True Intensifier Cave. This is one of the portals leading to True. However, if my calculations are spot on, this portal opened way back only fifty years ago, so it's still premature as of now. But with your power, Youngmaster Jin, this portal cannot betray your will."

"Okay, I got it." Jin Rou understood and extended his senses to the deepest part of the cave to check if there were some hidden anomalies here, but fortunately none.

"Open!" Jin Rou walked over to the entrance of the cave and roared. He used a lot of massive seals that Owner Bu couldn't comprehend."

"Such powerful seals... I feel like it can destroy this world instantly." Owner Bu was shaken.

The seals made the world tremble as it threatened to destroy everything. It was like a world-destructive catastrophe was about to be released in this world.

Millions of universal laws and runic symbols gathered around the cave as it encircled in a small ball of light. The scene was dazzling and bone-chilling at the same time.

"Pang! Pang! Pang!" Soon, clanging sounds could be heard as the entrance of the cave suddenly became a transparent wall with rainbow colors all around.

"It's opened..." Owner Bu was surprised though he prepared himself for this, "Youngmaster Jin has forcefully opened the portal."

His state of shock was founded. After all, who in this world is capable of forcing a premature portal to open? Even Ancients and Ethereals weren't capable of this feat!

After all, the forceful opening of a portal required a tantamount of qi and universal laws. The process was quite complicated and very difficult, but it was possible for True Gods.

"It's open now." Jin Rou said. The process turned out to be more complicated than he expected but he still worked it out, "Let's go."

Jin Rou had no time to spare idling. He needed to know if there were other Devils that had infiltrated their world.

—

True Realm.

Three figures were floating mid air with grand majestic aura surrounding them. They all wore a golden knight armors that would make them stand in the crowd.

Their faces were serious as if they were ready to annihilate everything in their path. They stood there without moving. All their eyes were focused in a certain portal from Immortal.

"Is it really a person who forcefully opened a premature portal?" A white-haired golden knight named, Golden Eagle Knight, said.

"If it isn't, what is this then?" His comrade, Golden Hawk Knight, retorted, "That portal is a premature one with only 50,000 years worth of qi accumulation. It is still not enough even to activate the trigger to open it."

"So that means the guy that will appear to us is powerful enough to break the laws of this world?" Golden Nightingale Knight, the only woman of the group, said, "Aren't we here giving our heads then?"

"Idiot." Hawk sneered and said, "Didn't our master say that the other party used incredible means to open the portal?"

Suddenly, Eagle and Nightingale were struck with realization.

"Did it mean that the unknown man used a heaven-defying treasure that is capable of breaking the laws of this place?" Nightingale asked.

"Precisely." Hawk nodded, "And what are the heaven-defying treasures that are capable of this feat?"

"World Treasures!!" Eagle and Nightingale answered at the same time.

"Correct." Hawk smiled, "This possibility has a large chance of being right. Besides, Immortal has no records of alive Ethereals or Ancients. At most, they have Fate Emperors there like us."

"So the other party seems to be a Destiny, then?"

"There's a slight possibility, yes." Hawk confirmed, "But so what? We three are capable of slaying Destinies. So what is there to be afraid of?"

The two contemplated for a while and after which, their anxious expressions faded little by little.

"Cling!" And soon enough, the portal they were guarding created a sound that was like a bell.

It meant that someone had successfully ascended to True Realm.
