Grandpa, times have changed.

Chapter 633 Ascension, as everyone knows.

"Ah."

Zhang Yunlu responded softly.

Really!
But why would Master prepare a wheelchair for himself out of the blue?
Could it be that they plan to do it later...?

hiss~
Chi Jiuyu gasped.

"Let's talk about something else."

Don’t think about it anymore!

The thought of her master preparing a wheelchair for her terrified Yu...

"it is good."

Zhang Yunlu took out some fish food and sprinkled it into the pool next to her.

Water splashed as the fish swimming in the water began to fight fiercely for the food.

After watching for a while, Zhang Yunlu turned to look at Chi Jiuyu.

"Didn't you always want to eat this spirit fish, Senior Sister? Why haven't I heard you mention it recently?"

Whenever he had the chance, Chi Jiuyu would say, "Let's eat a fish to celebrate."

But in the past year or so, she hasn't mentioned it again.

“You wouldn’t agree even if I brought it up,” Chi Jiuyu said, pursing her lips.

Xiao Yunlu is too old-fashioned. Her master said that if these fish are given to her, then they are meant to be eaten by her!
What's the point of raising fish if you're not going to eat them?
"Besides, those fish have lost their original flavor because of your care."

The correct way to feed a baby is to feed them once every one or two months, or once every six months or a year, just like the master does.

"By the way! How long will it take for your injury to heal?" Chi Jiuyu asked casually.

This is just casual conversation; she's talking about whatever comes to mind.

“Based on past experience…” Zhang Yunlu thought for a moment, “it will probably take more than a week.”

Because of the danger, her recovery speed is faster than that of ordinary cultivators.

Simply put, the more severe the injury, the faster the recovery.

"Are you planning to take on more missions after you recover?"

"probably."

"You've probably heard that the ascension mission we were on is going to be released in the usual way."

It's been almost half a year, and the Sword Sect Battle Network has been spreading this story.

When I asked Ye Zhiwei and Zhao Ruohan, I got the same answer.

With her unparalleled wisdom, she keenly noticed something amiss.

"Does Senior Sister think those messages are credible?"

"We can't believe it all, but it's probably true that the ascension mission was released in the usual way."

After a pause, Chi Jiuyu said firmly:

"And it should be in the next few days!"

Zhang Yunlu paused: "What did Master say?"

"No."

She did try to subtly inquire with her master, but all she got was that sentence she'd heard countless times and hated the most—

That's not something you should know.

"Uncle Master?"

"Oh, no, that's not it."

Her martial aunt was always appearing and disappearing mysteriously; she had only seen her once in the past few months.

"Why are you always thinking about Master and Uncle-Master? We're so smart, can't we figure it out ourselves?"

"..."

So it's still just speculation...

Chi Jiuyu seemed to see through her thoughts: "You'll see if you don't believe me. At most this week, an ascension mission will definitely be released!"

"I believe in my senior sister."

Although it's still just a guess, my senior sister's intuition has always been quite sharp.

and……

If this hadn't happened, the Sword Sect Battle Network wouldn't have been filled with various speculations about 'ascension' for over half a year.

……

……

Time flies, and five days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Yunlu's injuries had mostly healed, and she was grabbed by Chi Jiuyu, who appeared out of nowhere, as soon as she came out of the Transmission Building.

We sped along like lightning and arrived at the Sword Sect quest giveaway location.

A specially created grotto-heaven that does not exist in reality.

Each person who enters will be assigned to a different area based on their level of cultivation.

Of course, this doesn't apply to special tasks that require teamwork.

They will be assigned to the corresponding area based on the squad leader's cultivation level.

Although the 'Quest Acceptance Cave' is quite intelligent, not many people usually come here.

After all, long ago, the major immortal sects had already established comprehensive online platforms.

Members of the Immortal Sect can accept missions simply through the internal network, without having to make a trip in person.

Even tasks requiring special tokens can be delivered to the home using specialized ritual implements.

But today is different.

The quest giveaway area was quite lively.

Within the vast cave, almost every area was bustling with people.

Divine Transformation Level - Quest Acceptance Area.

The whole place is a quiet valley, and at the front is a towering pure white jade wall with lines of golden characters that are constantly changing.

At this moment, at the very top of the jade disc, several lines of dazzling golden characters shone brightly.

[Ascension Quest - Deity Transformation]

[Mission Objective: Eradicate the practice of 'Human Elixir' and eliminate cultivators within the world whose evil deeds exceed 9 points.]

[Mission Location: Unnamed World 83 (Regular)]

[Task Duration: 3 years/3 months]

[Quest Reward: You will receive relevant information upon accepting the quest]

[Task Difficulty: Extremely High]

[Requirements for accepting this task: Nascent Soul stage sword cultivator, having passed the trial of inheriting a true cultivation technique, and being among the top 10 on the Sword Ranking]

"Look!"

Chi Jiuyu pulled Zhang Yunlu to stand in a relatively back position, his expression full of smugness.

"I told you it would happen in the next few days, but you didn't believe me. Now you believe me!"

Zhang Yunlu: "..."

I think I said 'believe' that day.

"Senior sister is truly a prophet."

Forget it.

Praising someone won't hurt you, and it will make your senior sister happy, so why not?

“That’s right!” Chi Jiuyu looked at the jade disc. “You don’t even know who we are. We are the number one in all the heavens and myriad realms…”

Having finally gotten the chance, she naturally seized it and tried her best to show off.

But perhaps her incessant chatter disturbed the people in front of her, for a sword cultivator who was looking at the jade disc suddenly turned around angrily.

However, after recognizing who was speaking, he paused for a moment, then silently turned back.

Seeing this, Chi Jiuyu felt a little embarrassed and had to stop boasting, not wanting to continue.

Zhang Yunlu smiled and lowered her voice:

"However, the requirements for this ascension mission are really high."

Those requirements were increasingly difficult.

Sword cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage are alright; although they're not quite 'worse than dogs,' they're practically everywhere in the Sword Sect.

However, passing the trial of inheriting a true method is not easy.

As for the Sword Ranking...

It refers to the seven divine lists.

Only the truly exceptional can be among them.

Not to mention the task requires being in the top ten...

"It's alright. The requirements for this task shouldn't just be the current top ten, but anyone who has been on the list and entered the top ten before can take it," Chi Jiuyu said in a low voice.

Otherwise, wouldn't those sword cultivators who have just broken through a major realm have no chance? "Moreover, if the difficulty of missions decreases in the future, the requirements for accepting them should also decrease accordingly."

emm...

Think about it now.

Regarding this ascension mission, the initial stage involves selecting the best of the best, with at least someone at the level of Brother Dog being eligible to participate.

It looks like it's for testing purposes.

At this stage, it's half testing and half practice.

Although not as strict as at the beginning, only extremely outstanding practitioners can participate.

What about after that?

Once this phase is over, will the ascension mission be opened to everyone in the sect?

"Soon, there should be more and more ascension missions, until all cultivators in the world are involved." A strange light flickered in Chi Jiuyu's eyes.

There are so many worlds beyond our own...

Given the vision and understanding of my master and uncles, this 'ascension' is definitely not an opportunity given only to a select few!

Thinking to himself that he had seen through the truth, Chi Jiuyu couldn't help but feel a little smug.

That's right!

Look beyond the surface.

This is her mindset as the future sect leader of the Sword Sect!

"..."

Zhang Yunlu looked at Chi Jiuyu, who had a smug look on her face but couldn't help laughing, and shook her head inwardly.

My senior sister is probably thinking about some strange things again.

"Senior sister, can you take on this mission?"

Her words brought Chi Jiuyu back to her senses, who was lost in her beautiful fantasy.

"I can't accept it." She had tried this at the very beginning. "My personal interface notified me that as a third-batch Ascension Envoy, I do not have the authority to accept this task."

Yes, since returning from the ascension mission, my personal interface on the Tai Xuan Immortal Network has never been disconnected.

……

……

Sword Sect Outer Sect.

Surrounded by mountains, there is a lake as clear and transparent as jade, its surface reflecting the clouds and sky.

Small boats ply the lake, while the lakeside is shaded by trees and evergreen grass.

Various kinds of spiritual fruits hang from the branches, surrounded by auspicious clouds.

In ancient times, a sword cultivator who practiced "Reflecting the Heart" achieved enlightenment here, and thus this lake came into being.

Legend has it that this lake can reflect one's true nature, allowing one to rectify one's conscience and understand one's heart. It is one of the famous scenic spots of the Sword Sect.

It is worth mentioning that when Lin Changsheng went to the Hehuan Sect for emotional training, the cultivator who trained him possessed a technique called "Mirror of the Heart".

The "Mirror of Reflection" technique is related to this "Lake of Reflection".

At this moment, in the middle of the lake.

A small boat floats on the lake, moving slowly forward.

Three figures were sitting on the boat.

Two of them were Xu Xing and Bie Xuening, while the other was a beautiful woman with her eyes covered by a white veil.

Her fair and slender fingers danced on the surface of the water.

Yuanjun.

"I hope my visit has been intrusive and not a disturbance," Yuanjun said with a light laugh.

Bie Xuening remained calm, too lazy to answer her pointless question.

Since she's already here, are we really going to kick her out?

It doesn't seem to work either.

"Naturally, that doesn't count."

Xu Xing skipped over the topic with a single sentence and changed the subject:

"What made you decide to come to the Sword Sect today?"

“It’s nearby, so I came to take a look.” Yuan Jun turned his head to look to the side.

What they were looking towards was the direction of the mission acceptance point.

After a while, she looked away and turned her gaze back to Xu Xing.

"Maintaining so many things at the same time, you've worked hard, fellow Daoist."

Inside and outside the boundary, the central continent and the starry sky.

Now we need one more.

Fortunately, this incident occurred within the two realms already covered by the Immortal Net, and will not cause any deviation in the Dao.

"It's alright, it's what I should do anyway."

No one else had the time or resources to spare.

"..." Yuanjun was silent for a while, "A thousand years from now, all the calamities that have afflicted me should be completely removed."

"It's about the same on my end," Bie Xuening said calmly.

Her cultivation has improved significantly, and Xuan has taken away a portion of the 'Heavenly Will' that the Sword Sect suppressed, so the time required to completely refine it has been greatly reduced.

"That would be perfect."

A thousand years……

Pretty much what he expected.

And if I'm not mistaken, the part that the Supreme Dao Sect has sealed off should be coming soon.

That's right!

Although Hongzun spent his days surrounded by women and chatting in group chats, his cultivation level also improved during this period...

Although it hasn't been said yet, as Xu Xing gets closer and closer to the Dao Source, he can already sense the changes in everyone's cultivation level.

"I heard that Brother Dao gave the seed of the Crimson Sun Tree to Xiao Ruohan." Yuanjun then changed the subject.

"Sister-in-law Chengmeng even contacted me specifically about this matter, asking me to thank you, Brother Dao."

As for why he didn't personally visit to express his gratitude...

Zhao Chengmeng felt it was more appropriate to have Yuanjun convey his gratitude.

"There's nothing to thank me for." Xu Xing shook his head slightly. "She's just keeping her here as a memento. Since her innate supernatural abilities are compatible, there's no need to keep her and waste her."

The reason I didn't give it to anyone else before was that ordinary cultivators simply couldn't afford to raise the Crimson Sun Tree.

But Zhao Ruohan is different.

Her father is Hong Zun.

“The Crimson Flame Spirit Clan is ultimately different,” Bie Xuening said.

The Crimson Flame Spirits are an extremely yang race, known for their fiery tempers; simply put, they lack common sense.

They were also the first clan to be destroyed after their junior brother attained immortality.

At that time, my junior brother had just attained enlightenment.

Because the Tai Xuan Realm had never had an 'enlightened being' before, the myriad races did not have much of a concept of this.

As one of the most favored races under 'Tai', the Crimson Flame Spirits, relying on 'Tai's' favor, were wary of the human race, but that was all they were wary of.

Furthermore, due to the conflict that occurred during the attainment of enlightenment, 'Tai' and the human race are at odds the most, so half of the hundred 'Ten Thousand Spirit Ranches' in the Crimson Flame Spirit Clan are 'human race ranches'!
But what period was that?
My junior brother is the only enlightened being besides the four ancestors of the Cang Clan. If he shows even the slightest weakness, the entire human race will face utter destruction!
Therefore, the Crimson Flame Spirits quickly paid the price for their actions.

With a single sword strike, the Crimson Flame Spirit was completely wiped out.

Even Tai, who came to stop him upon hearing the news, was frightened away by his junior brother's burning passion and desperate attitude.

Since then, all races in the Tai Xuan Realm have finally realized that the 'immortals' of the human race and the 'ancestors' of the Cang race are on the same level, and that there is no difference between those who attain the Dao after birth and those who attain it innately.

Apart from a few exceptionally stubborn groups, no other group dared to establish a 'human ranch'.

"There's not much difference," Xu Xing said with a smile.

“Indeed.” Bie Xuening nodded slightly.

Yuanjun: "..."

What kind of riddle are you two playing?

……

……

Since that day.

Yuanjun then stayed at the Sword Sect for a period of time.

Later, he also met Chi Jiuyu and tried to defeat Zhao Ruohan with the 'Sword of Annihilation'.

The ascension mission was also accepted by some qualified sword sect practitioners.

It is worth mentioning that the one who accepted the Golden Core level Ascension mission was none other than Lin Qiuxian, who went to Xuanjian City and, with Xu Xing's help, retraced his cultivation path!
