The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 539 Heavenly Soldiers and Generals
Upon hearing this, Wang Wu was not surprised.

Three hundred slots are almost enough to gather all the Taiyi and Dixian of the Mangshan Ancient Bear Clan. They are now guardian immortal soldiers, and in the future, they will be heavenly soldiers and generals.

Now that we have official positions, we don't need to stay in the cultivation world to stir up trouble anymore; we can be guaranteed a stable income regardless of drought or flood.

This also means that Great Wilderness City will be abandoned.

But can he accept this opportunity? Can he accept that his future path has been predetermined?
To be honest, he still wanted to take a chance, especially since he still had many things to do.

"Thank you for your kindness, Clan Chief. I would like to return to the Hidden Origin Society. My wives and concubines are all there."

Wang Wu politely declined.

"Since that's the case, there's nothing I can do. Good luck, but I guess you won't be able to return to the Hidden Origin Society for the time being. Although the sealing immortal array has been dismantled, it seems to have caused some terrible effects. In addition, it's uncertain whether those six half-step Grand Luos are willing to accept the immortal decree. Wang Wu, you have done a great favor for my clan. I don't care what your identity is, or what secrets you are hiding or what you have done. So I'm willing to give you a piece of advice: being a heavenly soldier or general is actually quite good. Once this opportunity is gone, it won't come again."

"In short, think it over carefully. I'll reserve that spot for you, with a three-year limit. Take care of your own affairs first, and try to come back and report to me within three years. Don't delay. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Xiong Dijia's words were profound, and Wang Wu understood them.

"Thank you, clan leader!"

Wang Wu thanked them sincerely. After they came out, he saw the old and weak members of the Ancient Bear Clan in the Great Wilderness City packing up their belongings and leaving the city in twos and threes, disappearing into the mountains and wilderness.

None of them are stronger than a first-grade immortal, so they cannot be among the five hundred. Rather than staying in this doomed Great Wilderness City, they should go to the wilderness to become kings of the mountains and develop quietly.

This was a special stabilization measure in the immortal realm.

Therefore, Emperor Xiong Jia could not show favoritism and had to allocate two hundred slots to Yin Yuan City.

After the last battle, the Taiyi Earth Immortals of Yinyuan City suffered heavy casualties, and they were probably driven to despair and bloodlust. If they were left in the cultivation world, who knows what would happen to them?
Reason told Wang Wu that he should join, but he still wanted to go to Qing Shuang City, where his beloved family and friends were. It would be good to go back and see them, otherwise, he was afraid he would never have the chance to see them again.

However, he cannot leave for the time being. He has only recovered 70% of his strength, and if he goes out now, he will not be able to return to Qing Shuang City.

So, let's go back to seclusion, okay?
Wait, it's not working. Wang Wu looked at the jade talisman in his hand. The Ancient Bear Clan had dismantled all those eternal immortal artifacts.

"I'm sorry, Lord Wang Wu, but the Great Wilderness City is about to be abandoned. All our permanent immortal artifacts will be placed on a miniature spirit-catching ship. No more valuable immortal artifacts or arrays will be left in the Great Wilderness City."

An ancient bear chuckled and ran over, taking the jade talisman from Wang Wu's hand.

The entire Great Wilderness City now resembles a massive demolition site.

They dismantle everything.

Demolish what's useful, and demolish what's useless, because we can't come back in the future. So what's wrong with taking some stones from our hometown, or the entire building, to remember our hometown?
It's not a big deal at all.

In fact, even Yinyuan City is being demolished. If Li Huojun were to turn against them at this moment, wouldn't his entire army be wiped out?

Fortunately, this possibility is extremely slim.

Wang Wu wandered around but couldn't find a place where he could go into seclusion.

When he returned to the Great Wilderness City, he found it was almost completely reduced to ruins. Most of the old and weak members of the Ancient Bear Clan had left, leaving only three hundred Earth Immortal Ancient Bears and Taiyi Ancient Bears sighing over the place.

A stream of Yin and Yang energy descended, and nine Creation Talismans floated around, forming a temporary passage to the Nine Heavens. This was the path to ascension.

The Taiyi masters from Yinyuan City also arrived one after another. They were all Taiyi masters; there was no chance for Earth Immortals.

"Wang Wu, what are you still hesitating for!"

Gray Elder also arrived, and upon seeing Wang Wu, he couldn't help but shout, "Others want a spot but can't get one, and you're still hesitating. We no longer have the chance to attain the Great Luo realm, but we can seize this opportunity to enter the Celestial Realms and become celestial soldiers and generals. This is our only chance. Don't be so stubborn. Even if Frost Lord were still alive, she wouldn't give up such an opportunity."

"You little rascal, don't be silly!"

Old Grey's words make sense, but he had no idea what the inside story was.

So Wang Wu could only smile wryly, cup his hands in greeting, and quickly depart. Behind him, the final glorious curtain call of the cultivation world was unfolding.

He even felt as if the world was vast, yet he had nowhere to call home.

He wanted to go and see the Great Wilderness Prison Tower, but as soon as the thought crossed his mind, a slightly uneasy feeling washed over him—a warning!
You can't go; it's dangerous there.

This is quite normal, because these Towers of Sin are arguably the most valuable and heaviest heavy assets in the cultivation world. Regardless of their function, they all serve to suppress the cultivation world.

Now that the Twelve Great Luos are going to build the Celestial Realm, they'll definitely take all the good stuff with them.

Many of these prison towers were the private property of those powerful figures.

Even the Great Wilderness Prison Tower was actually an asset of the Hidden Origin God Lord.

"Has it started yet?"

Wang Wu suddenly stopped and gazed into the distance. Although he couldn't see anything, he could sense a massive shockwave forming. Initially billions of miles away, it was now right in front of him. However, this shockwave wasn't very powerful; it only caused enormous tremors, collapsing mountains, cracking the earth, erupting subterranean fires, and flooding.

This would be a catastrophe for mortals, but for cultivators, even those at the lowest level, it would be an effective way to escape. Moreover, because of this great disaster, they could discover some blessed lands and spiritual energy sources, which could become the sites of cultivation sects in the future.

Ultimately, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. This vast cultivation world, even if it is plundered several times, is still an inexhaustible treasure for ordinary mortals and cultivators below the first rank.

At this moment, Wang Wu naturally didn't care about any of that. What he saw was a colossal tower that reached the heavens and the earth, slowly rising from the ground and heading towards the outer heavens guided by the yin and yang energies.

In the instant he passed through the Outer Heavens, Wang Wu even sensed the so-called Celestial Realm and vaguely saw the outline and aura of a true Great Luo Immortal.

That's incredibly powerful!
It's like a mortal standing in front of the sun, who would be reduced to ashes in a second.

The Great Luo seemed to have noticed Wang Wu, but ignored him, focusing instead on moving one Sin Prison Tower after another.

Yes, more than one.

These may not all belong to him, but who cares? Whoever grabs them gets them.

Moreover, other Ronaldos are also vying for it.

Wang Wu couldn't help but worry about the Great Wilderness Prison Tower where Qingxue was located. If it were taken away, there would truly be no chance left.

Suddenly, he heard a mournful, angry, and suppressed roar, a half-step Great Luo, but he didn't know which one it was.

No, they've united, seemingly dissatisfied with the arrangements made by the twelve great Luo.

Roaring, they rushed towards the sky while the twelve Great Luo were moving away from the Tower of Sin, breaking through the passage and entering the Outer Heaven.

The entire cultivation world has now become a prison of confinement. Others can stay, but they dare not, because of the so-called once-in-ten-thousand-years opportunity to break through.

Who believes it!
However, the twelve Great Luo Immortals seemed to ignore it, as they were all busy vying to move the Tower of Sin.

Suddenly, Wang Wu seemed to sense something and looked in one direction. An inconspicuous Tower of Sin rose into the air, but changed direction halfway through, breaking free from the control of those Great Luo Immortals. Taking advantage of this opportunity, it broke out of the cultivation world and went to the Outer Heaven.

Although there was no information or evidence, Wang Wu still breathed a sigh of relief.

Qingxue succeeded; she achieved the half-step Great Luo realm!
At this last moment, he refined the Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower for himself, and took advantage of the opportunity when Yin Yuan Divine Lord gave up and when the other Great Luo were fighting for a better Sin Prison Tower, he took the opportunity to escape.

Wang Wu stared blankly, feeling gratified, but at the same time, a great sense of sorrow arose in his heart. He actually wanted to go back to Qingshuang City to see Shuangjun, Xuelang, and Madam Yu and the others.

Although he knew that as long as they were alive, it would be easy for them to be selected as guardian soldiers.

Therefore, at this point, the best choice is to return to the Great Wilderness City and join Xiong Dijia and the others on the special path to heaven. Becoming a heavenly soldier or general in the future would not be an unfortunate outcome.

But this also means that we may never see each other again in this lifetime.

The Twelve Celestial Realms are definitely not a single celestial realm.

As for those who stay, they'll basically be trapped in the world of cultivation for life, playing with a bunch of kindergarten kids.

There will be countless heavenly rules to bind us then, and if anyone dares to disobey, heavenly soldiers and generals will come to punish them.

Is he going to create a version of the Monkey King's havoc in Heaven?

That's all, that's all!
This is the era of the Twelve Great Golden Immortals. They are the twelve supreme protagonists. Going against them will only lead to a bad end.

Being a celestial soldier or general wouldn't be so bad.

Wang Wu turned around and headed straight for Dahuang City, but just as he was about to arrive, he stopped and looked back. Whether it was his imagination or the sense of crisis brought about by his level 27 danger perception and level 9 warning, he felt a little uneasy. It wasn't a fatal kind of unease, but rather an indescribable feeling, like a kind of constraint.

Yes, he was certain that becoming a celestial soldier was tantamount to being shackled.

"I'm not leaving. Staying in this world is fine too."

Wang Wu turned around again and disappeared into the wilderness.

Three years later, Xiong Dijia shook his head regretfully and selected Taiyi, who had been waiting anxiously and eagerly, as a guardian immortal soldier. Then, the whole group ascended the Heavenly Ladder and, under the illumination of Yin and Yang energies, completely and forever left this world of cultivation.

will never return.

But no one knew that in the outer heavens, in a certain celestial realm, the ancient bear Da Luo sighed with regret, "What a cunning little bear cub."

They're not taking the bait!
However, from now on, with the rules of the Celestial Realm fully established, the Twelve Great Luo Regulators will join forces to refine the Gate to the Celestial Realm, making ascension much more difficult.

Or, once you ascend, you will surely fall into his hands.

If you're so capable, then stay in the cultivation world and decay forever.
