Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension-Chapter 1562 - 844: The Nine-layered Cloud Sea Disperses, Ascension Platform Appears

Chapter 1562: Chapter 844: The Nine-layered Cloud Sea Disperses, Ascension Platform Appears

Chen Polu saw the leader’s expression was serious, and his heart couldn’t help but skip a beat, feeling faintly uneasy.

Chen Polu licked his lips and couldn’t help but say, "Leader, why are you inquiring about Jun Beiming’s whereabouts? What does his life or death have to do with us?"

Alas!

Zhao Sheng sighed slightly melancholically, "It’s not that simple. I suspect he obtained something I left behind. This item has significant implications, and if leaked, it could cause endless disasters in the future!"

The "item" he mentioned was precisely the "Blood Nerve Scripture."

The Returning to Void Splitting God once stole the entire content of the "Blood Nerve Scripture" from Jun Tianxing’s memory.

He suspected that Jun Beiming also knew of the "Blood Nerve Scripture’s" existence and might have already started cultivating it.

After all, the "Blood Nerve Scripture" was the core legacy of the Tribulation Crossing Venerable Blood God’s Son.

Moreover, Jun Tianxing had already set the best example.

He absolutely did not believe that Jun Beiming could resist cultivating it.

Although there was no evidence, he strongly suspected that the reason Jun Beiming fled without a fight during the Sky-reaching Cliff battle might be due to using the "Golden Cicada Shell" strategy.

Various signs suggested that before fleeing, this scoundrel might have cruelly refined the vast majority of his kin.

This guess was very easy to verify. Just ask those who experienced the battle back then, and the truth would naturally become clear.

Thinking of this, Zhao Sheng suddenly looked up at Chen Polu and asked, "I want to see Zhao Chongnan, where is he now?"

Chen Polu was stunned for a moment upon hearing this but quickly reacted, "The Family Head is currently guarding Sky-reaching Cliff. If you are not in a hurry, why not stay in the Heavenly Rift Valley for now—"

"No, I have doubts and need to go to Sky-reaching Cliff immediately to verify something.

Polu, let’s meet again today. I am very pleased. Take this ring. I hope we can still meet and talk happily a few hundred years from now."

Saying this, Zhao Sheng took out a Sumeru Ring and placed it into Chen Polu’s hand, then patted his shoulder as a sign of encouragement.

Chen Polu looked reluctant, about to speak, but saw the leader give a slight smile, suddenly soar into the sky, and disappear in an instant.

Chen Polu watched the direction in which the leader disappeared, his eyes filled with a complex mix of sighs, disappointment, and relief.

But soon, he became extremely excited, clutching the ring tightly with his remaining right hand as if holding onto the throat of destiny.

...

The cold wind howled, and dark clouds loomed low in the sky.

Sky-reaching Cliff towered majestically, its peak piercing through the Cloud Sea, resembling a floating immortal island above the clouds.

The Great Sun hung high, and on the top of Sky-reaching Cliff, golden light shone brilliantly, with palaces extending in grand rows. Occasionally, immortal cranes danced, rainbow light formed bridges, cloud mist lingered, resembling the Heavenly Palace in an immortal realm.

Occasionally, one could see tunneling light breaking through the Cloud Sea, landing on the top of Sky-reaching Cliff. Numerous cultivators busily moved in and out of the palaces.

Surrounding Sky-reaching Cliff for hundreds of miles, there were countless giant floating warships the size of mountains, flying according to set trajectories, continuously circling Sky-reaching Cliff, always on guard against any external invasions.

The Great Sun tilted, and the sunlight turned gradually yellow.

At this time, an uninvited guest quietly arrived at Sky-reaching Cliff.

Zhao Sheng stood at the edge of the cliff, reaching from his sleeve to take out a Ten Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Talisman, suddenly releasing it with a flick of his hand.

The talisman quickly burned into a mass of ash, followed by a streak of flowing light rushing into the palaces and disappearing.

Not long after, a seemingly unremarkable young man flew over quickly, landing not far behind Zhao Sheng.

The young man was Zhao Chongnan, who had recently advanced to Nascent Soul.

Upon seeing Zhao Sheng, Zhao Chongnan’s expression changed dramatically, "You... you are Zhao Sheng... Mr. Zhao!"

Zhao Sheng turned around with a smile, "Could it be that I have changed so much that you can’t recognize me after just a hundred years?"

Zhao Chongnan immediately denied, "No, I just didn’t expect Mr. Zhao to appear so suddenly. I thought you had gone never to return, but here we are, meeting again today."

"Heh, I never said I would never return. No matter what, I also carry the Zhao Family bloodline, and I have some connection to the Three Extremes Zhao Family."

Zhao Chongnan scanned Zhao Sheng up and down, a flash of shock in his eyes.

He couldn’t discern Zhao Sheng’s depth, only feeling as if he was one with the world, seemingly standing there but also ethereal and illusory.

Zhao Chongnan forcibly suppressed his shock, respectfully asking, "May I ask what business Senior Zhao has summoned me for?"

"Indeed, I have a few matters to inquire about. The first is to request a token from you."

"I wonder what token?" Zhao Chongnan was startled, faintly guessing something. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Zhao Sheng immediately saw through his thoughts, admiringly saying, "You guessed right! I am indeed here to request the token leading to the Ancestral Land."

Zhao Chongnan’s expression turned grim, shaking his head with a hoarse voice, "To tell the truth, the family now only has one Life Jade remaining. Please forgive my rudeness, but I really cannot hand over this jade."

"You, your vision is too narrow! It’s clear your future achievements will be limited. Do you not know that if I take one now, I will return a hundredfold in the future? If you are wise, you should know what choice to make."

Zhao Chongnan’s expression shifted slightly, seemingly wavering.

Hmph!

Zhao Sheng, seeing his hesitation, snorted coldly, releasing a slight pressure of a Divinity Transformation cultivator.

Zhao Chongnan’s face drastically changed, discovering with extreme horror an overwhelming pressure appearing out of thin air, nearly suffocating him.

Fortunately, the pressure came quickly and went even quicker!

A breath later, Zhao Chongnan looked at Zhao Sheng with complete dread, as if witnessing something unbelievable.
