Chapter 878: Chapter 828: 26 True Immortals
“Immortals are those who wield the authority of Heaven and Earth, representing the way of the heavens. The divine will is bestowed upon them, and every action seems to be directed by the will of Heaven and Earth. Those who defy them are, in essence, enemies of Heaven and Earth,” Pei Xuanjing contemplated as he felt the power and the grace of the divine will he wielded.
Even though he had experience in creating the Longevity World and possessed unimaginable power as its pioneer within that realm, at the end of the day, the Longevity World was just a Small Thousand World. The power it contained couldn’t compare to the Great Ming World that could accommodate the existence of countless True Immortals.
Although the authority of Heaven and Earth that Pei Xuanjing commanded in the Great Ming World was only partial and not complete, as the first being to ascend to True Immortality through the Divine Immortal Path in this domain, and with the addition of the title of Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life, the divine favor Pei Xuanjing personally received was beyond imagination.
While he remained on Shenxiao Mountain, Pei Xuanjing’s will was integrated with Heaven and Earth, overseeing all living beings, and could easily probe everything between Heaven and Earth.
As the two worlds continued to merge and ascend, the transformation of these True Immortals neared completion. Wisps of True Immortal aura began to envelop the entire Heaven and Earth, embracing all things and spirits. At that moment, the might of True Immortals reached its peak, subjugating all creatures, with spirits worshipping and congratulating the true birth of True Immortals.
The supremely powerful beings, who on any normal day seemed invincible, now bowed their noble heads and dared not directly face the oppressive might of the True Immortals. Even those who once stood at the peak of supreme strength but had not yet stepped into the domain of Immortality had no choice but to temporarily submit.
The majesty of True Immortals was too formidable to look upon directly. The True Immortals ascending at this moment not only were elevating themselves; they were also carrying the will of Heaven and Earth. It was the time of their greatest Qi Luck, the moment of utmost authority. To defy them was to defy Heaven and Earth itself.
The majesty of True Immortals, daunting the universe!
Who knows how many rulers of ancient countries and masters of Holy Lands had their pride and joy of stepping into the Strongest Realm vanish without a trace. The awe of True Immortals was deeply engrained in their hearts, etching into the memories of their Divine Souls.
If they couldn’t break free from this awe-inspiring presence, it might become a shackle for all living beings, planting a seed in their hearts that would forever dash their hopes of becoming Immortal. Of course, if one could break through this might and dispel the inner demons, it could be turned from a curse to a blessing and serve as a foundation for their transformation into True Immortality.
Whether it was good or bad depended on each powerhouse’s own fate.
The moment these True Immortal auras appeared, he took action to prevent this might from eroding Shenxiao Mountain and pressuring the disciples too heavily.
Nonetheless, despite Pei Xuanjing’s intervention, the might of these True Immortals was still a terrifying presence for most disciples of Shenxiao Mountain.

There was nothing Pei Xuanjing could do about such matters because the might of Heaven and Earth was unstoppable, unless they were willing to live within Pei Xuanjing’s Domain for their entire lives, never experiencing wind and rain.
If that were the case, why should disciples who didn’t strive for progress or wish to become Immortal fear such oppression? There was no sense in avoiding it.
Thus, after the appearance of the True Immortal auras, Pei Xuanjing offered a choice through a secret message. Everything was based on their own decisions, and no one else could influence them.
What surprised Pei Xuanjing, however, was something else—the number of beings ascending to True Immortality this time.
“The number of True Immortals far exceeds my expectations,” Pei Xuanjing thought, as he felt the traces of True Immortal aura emanating between Heaven and Earth.
During his own breakthrough, Pei Xuanjing had focused most of his attention on the Heavenly Tribulations and Obstruction Tribulations he was facing; after all, even with great confidence in his heart, he dared not delay at such a critical moment.
After slaughtering a Demon King from the Demon Race and overcoming the Obstruction Tribulation, Pei Xuanjing’s attention turned to the tribulations of various factions as well as the human race’s Supreme Strong hindering the Demon Race, without really noticing how many Supreme Strong succeeded in their breakthrough to become True Immortals.
However, when all the newly ascended True Immortals released their might at this moment, even Pei Xuanjing, who was prepared, couldn’t help but be startled.
Twenty-six True Immortals!
Including Pei Xuanjing himself, there were actually a total of twenty-six True Immortals!
Fourteen from the human race and twelve from the Demon Race.
This was almost inconceivable to Pei Xuanjing; he hadn’t anticipated that this Heaven and Earth Ascension would yield so many True Immortals, surpassing the double digits to reach twenty-six.
But upon further reflection, considering that there were more than sixty Supreme Strong from both the human race and the Demon Race who chose to make the breakthrough, even if only twenty-six succeeded, the success rate was still only one-third, which meant the probability of ascension to True Immortal was actually quite small.
“Among the Supreme Strong who ascended to True Immortal this time, many are ancient beings nearing the end of their lifespans; they were close to the end and only decided to risk it all now because they saw the opportunity presented by the Great World,” Pei Xuanjing thought.
Moreover, those who were able to choose the breakthrough, who were confident in their success, each one of them had profound accumulations and centuries of cultivation. Plus, with the aid of the Heaven and Earth Ascension’s Creation Profound Mystery, in the end, less than one-third succeeded. If we wait for the boon of this Heaven and Earth Ascension to pass, even if the restrictions of Heaven and Earth are elevated, the success rate of True Immortal ascension would probably only be lower, never higher.
“Besides, sometimes being a step ahead means leading in every step. Those who fail to catch up with this breakthrough will find the divide between Immortal and Mortal. If one wishes to continue the breakthrough to True Immortal later on, even if Heaven and Earth’s restrictions are lessened, the Obstruction Tribulation will be much more fierce, and surely it will provoke True Immortals to obstruct,” a cold light flashed in Pei Xuanjing’s eyes, his speculation about this beyond doubt.
This time, the Obstruction Tribulation was mitigated because the strongest beings between Heaven and Earth were the Supreme Strong, and those powerful Supreme Strong were also ascending to True Immortal, which indirectly reduced their own Obstruction Tribulations.
But the next time won’t be so simple. The True Immortal ascension tribulations to come, whether for the human race or the Demon Race, will inevitably provoke True Immortals to intervene, and facing such a situation, without the protection of a True Immortal to shepherd the way, it would be impossible to ascend easily.
“Even using more devious reasoning, the existence of True Immortals represents the Will of Heaven and Earth and an undying presence; would they be willing to let more True Immortals appear to share the Authority of Heaven and Earth intended for them?” Pei Xuanjing’s lips curled into a cold sneer.
Admittedly, this was of no concern to him, but it doesn’t mean all True Immortals felt the same.
