The Farm Girl's Charismatic Fortune-Chapter 392: Extra - : Ascension
Chapter 392: Extra Chapter: Ascension
Ruo Xuan’s ascension day was marked by a torrential downpour.
Xuanyuan Que held her hand as they appeared atop the summit of the mountains.
Misty rain filled the space between heaven and earth, obscuring the surroundings.
A halo of light surrounded them, preventing even a single raindrop from falling on them.
Ruo Xuan felt a bit panicked, "Xuanyuan brother, I’ve heard that a single bolt of heavenly lightning has the power to shake the earth, is that true? What was it like when you ascended and that lightning struck down?"
To become a High Immortal, one must endure nine heavenly lightning strikes. She wouldn’t be turned to ash, would she?
Xuanyuan Que, holding her hand, said indifferently, "Didn’t feel much."
He looked at her, "Scared?"
Ruo Xuan, "Not scared! You faced thirty-six heavenly lightning bolts and ascended directly to Upper God at a thousand years old. You weren’t afraid, so why should I be afraid of a mere nine bolts of lightning for ascending to High Immortal?"
The Divine Lord Xuanyuan had ascended directly to Upper God in his past, the only one who skipped the High Immortal stage and went straight to becoming an Upper God.
With a millennium of cultivation base, he took on thirty-six heavenly lightning bolts. She only had to withstand nine, so what was there to be afraid of?
Xuanyuan Que helped her adjust the ornament in her hair and her clothes, "Let’s start then!"
"Oh." Still scared, but her two children succeeded in their ascension without fear, so as their mother, it wouldn’t do to show her fear!
Otherwise, she would lose all her authority!
The two sat down cross-legged, back to back.
Then they both began channeling their spiritual power, swiftly drawing spiritual energy from the world around them.
The rain grew heavier!
The dark clouds in the sky rapidly converged above their heads, with thunder and lightning flashing.
Boom!
Xuanyuan Que’s fingers danced, forming a fairy technique, and a white light with the power to move mountains and divide the earth struck down upon him!
As the first heavenly lightning bolt fell, the very earth trembled!
It also alarmed the Three Realms!
"Someone is ascending?"
"Who is ascending?"
"Just an ascension, what’s there to be surprised about? Let’s talk after they succeed!"
"The spiritual energy in the world is thin, it’s been a long time since anyone has successfully ascended."
"Exactly, we can’t even ascend to become Upper Gods anymore!"
...
The High Immortals were briefly surprised but then lost interest, going back to whatever they were doing!
Ruo Xuan, with her eyes closed, entered a state of meditation, only feeling the earth’s tremble and a current passing through her body, causing a slight numbness, but nothing too intense.
Just like the Divine Lord Xuanyuan had said, there wasn’t much of a feeling!
Boom!
Boom!
...
One after another, heavenly lightning bolts struck Xuanyuan Que.
After the ninth bolt of heavenly lightning, Ruo Xuan opened her eyes and moved slightly.
Xuanyuan Que, "Don’t move! Continue!"
Ruo Xuan, "..."
Continue? No way! Did the Divine Lord Xuanyuan intend to have her ascend directly to Upper God?
She couldn’t do it!
But there was no time to think further, as the tenth bolt of heavenly lightning descended, and she quickly closed her eyes, channeling her spiritual power to resist.
The tenth bolt of heavenly lightning resonated!
It shook the heavens and the earth!
This time, everyone in the Three Realms became restless!
Nine bolts of heavenly lightning signified ascension to High Immortal.
After the nine bolts, thirty-six followed, signaling ascension to Upper God!
Who was ascending to Upper God?
Upper Gods everywhere opened their celestial eyes to inquire.
Upon looking, they were astounded!
What was the War God of Nine Heavens doing?
Ruo Xi and Xuanyuan Lie were both dumbfounded!
Ruo Xi, "Father is leading Mother in an ascension to Upper God! Is that even possible?"
Xuanyuan Lie, with great composure, said, "I didn’t know it was possible myself, but with Father, nothing is impossible."
Ruo Xi, "Father is playing favorites! Wuu wuu... If I had known, I would have stayed in the human world for nearly a thousand years, so Father could help me withstand the heavenly lightning and directly become an Upper God!"
Xuanyuan Lie said very calmly, "When has Father ever been impartial?"
It’s been nearly a thousand years, isn’t my sister used to it yet?
If Father weren’t biased, would he have allowed them to ascend early and come home to build a house for Mother to live in?
Father had long been annoyed by their presence, impeding his and Mother’s joy of soaring together!
Ruo Xi: "..."
That made so much sense, she couldn’t find the words to argue back!

Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom!
...
The entire sky turned red, as if the sun had exploded!
Ruo Xuan felt as if deafening thunderclaps were right beside her ear!
The currents racing through her body grew stronger and more intolerable.
After the thirty-fifth thunderclap, she heard Xuanyuan Que’s deep, resonant voice beside her ear, "This is the last one, hold on."
Then the thirty-sixth thunderclap descended, and Ruo Xuan felt an agonizing, searing pain!
She felt as though she was about to turn into ashes!
Just like when her spirit had been shattered once before!
At that moment, a cool hand took hold of hers, and the excruciating pain vanished in an instant.
A beam of light then fell from the sky!
The figures of the two people disappeared from the spot.
A Little White Dog at the foot of the mountain barked furiously, "Xuanyuan Que, you have no respect for martial virtue! You won’t even let me become a person!"
The rain stopped,
And the sky became a clear blue.
The green mountains were lush,
Stretching and rolling,
And the sky was cloudless.
Ten thousand celestial soldiers and divine generals gathered at Heaven’s Gate:
"We welcome the return of the Divine Monarch of the Nine Heavens!"
"Congratulations to the Upper God Ruo Xuan for her successful ascension!"
"Wishing the Divine Monarch of the Nine Heavens and Upper God Ruo Xuan a happy marriage!"
...
Cheers and congratulations echoed to the heavens!
Xuanyuan Que, holding Ruo Xuan’s hand, stood above the clouds, receiving the blessings of all the gods.
Afterward, Xuanyuan Que and Ruo Xuan disappeared from their spot.
A white light and an orange light streaked across the sky, vanishing from everyone’s sight.
Those two lights were the color of the sun.
News that the Divine Lord Xuanyuan was bringing home his thousand-year-old immortal wife for a birthday and wedding banquet spread quickly throughout the Three Realms.
All Upper Gods who received an invitation could attend this grand banquet.
The Divine Monarch of the Nine Heavens would offer treasures collected in the War God Temple as gifts for the guests attending the feast.
Therefore, the Upper Gods went searching throughout the Three Realms for a posting!
That notice about the thousand-year birthday banquet—where exactly was it tossed to, lost in some unassuming corner?

Ruoshui Riverbank
Xuancao Flowers blossomed lushly for miles, brilliant as the dawn!
Ruo Xuan gazed at the crystal-clear and incomparably beautiful Crystal Palace rising amidst the vast stretches of orange, her eyes sparkling brightly.
Ruo Xi clung to Ruo Xuan’s arm, "Mother, do you like it? Brother and I built this with our own hands! And we planted these Xuancao Flowers ourselves! It took us nearly five hundred years!"
Xuanyuan Lie: "Mother, happy birthday!"
Ruo Xuan replied joyfully, "I love it! I love it so much! Thank you, Xibao, Liebao, you’ve both been absolutely marvelous!"
How on earth did they manage to grow so many flowers?
Xuanyuan Que said lightly, "As long as you like it, it’s what I asked them to prepare for you. Happy birthday."
Ruo Xuan immediately hugged Xuanyuan Que, "Thank you, Brother Xuanyuan, I love it so much!"
The two siblings: "..."
So it turned out that the efforts they poured into building the palace and gardens over nearly a thousand years were credited to their father with just one sentence!
Xuanyuan Que looked at his two children, "Is the meal ready? Your mother and I are hungry."
Ruo Xi and Xuanyuan Lie: "..."
Their father was not human; they wanted to descend to the human world.
They could no longer stay in the Fairy Realm!
This reunion meal was made together by the family, and it consisted of all the dishes that Ruo Xuan loved.
There was braised rabbit meat, roast lamb ribs, and longevity noodles.
While humans celebrated New Year’s Eve, the heavens were reuniting.
So it would be, year after year, and year after year.
