Chapter 1103 - 452: Great Immortal Fate_3

Chapter 1103: Chapter 452: Great Immortal Fate_3

Opening the plane channel directly for ascension, do you really think the barriers between the Abyssal layers are mere ornaments?

"Is this true?"

Yin Sheng said: "Absolutely true!"

"However, in ancient times, there was a change, the Demon Race emerged from underground, occupied the Celestial Gate, continuously giving birth to powerful Demons by absorbing the Immortal Qi emanating from the seams of the Celestial Gate, making it difficult for ancient cultivators to defend against."

"Helpless, the ancient cultivators could only use the Earth Sacrifice Ceremony to temporarily suppress both the Demon Race and the Celestial Gate, which also caused the severance of Spiritual Qi in the world."

"We, the Human Alliance, formed to protect the Human Dao, naturally have the responsibility to open the gate to immortality for all cultivators."

"Since the revival of Spiritual Qi, we have been searching for the location of the Celestial Gate, intending to eliminate the Demons, reopen the Celestial Gate, and offer a chance for all cultivators to ascend to immortality. Now the Demon Realm is surfacing, if the records are accurate, the center of the Demon Realm is where the Celestial Gate once stood!"

Wu Chang showed a thoughtful look, Yin Sheng’s information was not as detailed as the one obtained at Megrez Immortal Mansion, but was mostly correct.

The Celestial Gate was indeed occupied by Demons, and the Seven Stars indeed used the Earth Sacrifice Ceremony to suppress the Demon Race.

The only issue lies in the sequence; it was the Seven Stars who prepared to substitute earth for heaven, which triggered the crisis with the Demon Race.

However, such secrets recorded within Megrez Immortal Mansion cannot be easily obtained by the Human Alliance, so the confusion over sequence is understandable.

But from Yin Sheng’s words, it is clear that for the Human Alliance, breaking through the Demon Realm is not their goal; reclaiming the Celestial Gate from the Demon Race is their true mission.

To provide the opportunity for cultivators worldwide to ascend to immortality, in this context, the main quest four of the World Dungeon: "Complete the subjugation of demons and defend the Dao, activate the Great Immortal Fate," the referred Great Immortal Fate likely points to the Celestial Gate.

Since reopening the Celestial Gate is inscribed in the main quest, and it is situated as the last main quest number four, based on Wu Chang’s experience in dungeon strategy, reopening the Celestial Gate is very important to the dungeon plane.

Yet Megrez Immortal Mansion records also indicate peculiarities within the Celestial Gate, hence their substitution of earth for heaven.

If the Celestial Gate is to be reopened, wouldn’t it ruin the Seven Stars’ plans?

Is the Celestial Gate meant to be opened or not?

Regardless of whether it should be opened, he has something he needs to confirm with Yin Sheng first.

"So, brother, you came to see me for?"

Yin Sheng said: "Dear brother, with half a foot now in the Earth Immortal Realm, whether in power or fame, you are among the top in the alliance, so I am here to seek your support."

Wu Chang nodded, saying: "Reopening the Celestial Gate so that all cultivators can have a chance to ascend is a good thing, I naturally am willing to support it."

Upon hearing Wu Chang’s response, Yin Sheng was overjoyed and was about to speak when Wu Chang suddenly shifted his tone.

"But such a beneficial affair for the world, logically, should be declared to the world to increase the cultivators’ motivation in subjugating demons. Why hasn’t Wu Chang heard of it before?"

Yin Sheng said: "Records about the Celestial Gate only exist in certain documents discovered within Immortal Mansions, currently only circulating among the Human Alliance’s upper echelon, not yet verified."

"Recklessly publicizing it, if the Demon Realm is broken but no Celestial Gate is found, or the Celestial Gate cannot be reopened, it might even result in counterproductive effects."

"Recently organizing cultivators to explore the Demon Realm was also intended to search for the Celestial Gate, but human cultivators’ power is too weak to truly enter the core of the Demon Realm."

Wu Chang showed a noncommittal smile, did not continue dwelling on this issue, but continued:

"Wu Chang can understand brother’s concern, but still, there’s one point unclear."

"Wu Chang does not doubt brother, but reopening the Celestial Gate is a major issue of the Human Alliance, by rule, this should be declared by the Alliance Leader Lv in a high-level meeting, why have brother secretly informed me?"

"There is nothing that cannot be spoken of, the Alliance Leader Lv’s approach, is he opening the Celestial Gate for all the world’s cultivators, or merely for the high echelons of the Human Alliance!"

"Wu Chang is puzzled, I ask for brother’s guidance."

With this sentence, the atmosphere in the room instantly dropped to freezing.

Yin Sheng’s expression became extremely unpleasant, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

Everyone was negotiating nicely, how did you manage to disrupt the situation with just one sentence, no wonder the Tang Sect dwindled due to your actions.

In the past, with Yin Sheng’s temper, he would surely have berated Wu Chang and left in anger.

But times have changed, not to mention that leaving now would make it difficult to return.

With his current strength, if he dared to rebuke Wu Chang, he probably wouldn’t even get out the door.

Wu Chang’s exposure of Yin Sheng’s rhetoric was definitely not to embarrass this dear brother; he simply disdained wasting words on someone who cannot make decisions.

He smiled and said:

"Wu Chang bears no intention of targeting brother, if brother finds it difficult to answer, could he convey my words to the Alliance Leader Lv for him to reply."

Knock knock knock.

As Wu Chang spoke, there was another knock on the courtyard door.

Wu Chang rose and went outside, opening the courtyard door, standing outside was the Human Alliance’s Alliance Hierarch, Lü Changgeng.

Following Wu Chang, Yin Sheng was shocked upon seeing Lü Changgeng, because his technique for identifying energy signatures hadn’t detected Lü Changgeng following him.

What surprised him more was that the Tang Wu Chang couple were unaffected by Lü Changgeng’s arrival, as if they had already noticed.

A cold sweat broke out on his back, realizing he was not on the same level as the people inside the room.

Lü Changgeng entered the room, sitting opposite Wu Chang and Erin, noticing that the unqualified Yin Sheng discretely stood behind Lü Changgeng without speaking.

Lü Changgeng said:

"Elder Yin coming to see Sect Leader Tang was at my behest, hoping it might foster better relations, unexpectedly, it has led to misunderstandings instead."

"The reason for not convening the Human Alliance Elder Council and discussing the Celestial Gate publicly is that knowledge about the Celestial Gate is limited to fewer than two dozen people; even among the Elders of the Human Alliance, less than half are aware."

"However, this is not out of personal gain for myself to monopolize the Celestial Gate, it is decreed by the Immortal’s mandate."
