"It will take about fifteen minutes to prepare."

"Alright, I’ll find a way to delay them a bit. Let’s try to minimize the loss of Righteous Cultivators."

Therefore, before a battle erupted between Tianluo and the Dark Sect, Master Wang stepped forward.

With a shout, he drew the attention of the whole scene.

Wang Jixuan casually rose several feet on his cloud.

The group of Immortal Soldiers gripped their Magic Treasure long spears tightly, both male and female True Immortals wore serious expressions, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Are you afraid of me?" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Wang Jixuan spread his hands, at this moment he was not activating the Alien Soul, exuding a clean energy and an otherworldly poise.

Master Wang was unhurried, with hands clasped behind his back, speaking confidently to the experts present in the Xu Realm.

He said:

"My Path to Immortality lies just ahead, yet you’ve blocked it. In my eyes, the greatest threat isn’t you, but rather the third Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder hidden in that mass of dark clouds behind you."

"Therefore, if I make a move next, it will be to annihilate you, then storm the Immortal Gate."

"Do you know why the Heavenly Dao insists on killing me?"

The female True Immortal frowned and asked, "Are you just stalling for time?"

"I just want you to die with some understanding."

Wang Jixuan’s voice grew more nonchalant;

The Dark Sect Members, however, grew increasingly tense.

The Tianluo Loose Immortal and the experts present all felt their odds of survival seemed to have increased markedly.

The mana within Wang Jixuan flowed like a gentle stream, rapidly recovering.

This was one advantage of the Immortal Body.

Seeing that the Dark Sect Members did not respond, Wang Jixuan could only talk to himself, needing to buy more time.

Master Wang spoke warmly:

"Perhaps you cannot see it, but I can see it, right behind you, beneath the Immortal Gate, an indescribable monster lies there hungrily."

"It looks like a mist, yet also like a creature formed from countless Primordial Spirits and souls."

"It clings to the Immortal Gate, adheres to the rules, greedily absorbing all power, attempting to control every living being, making them part of itself."

"Can you really not see it?"

"I just shattered a Heavenly Dao Stele, and then suddenly felt that this stele was like an eye, a hand, a tangible object of the Heavenly Dao Consciousness in the material world."

"This monster is now watching you and me."

The female True Immortal scolded, "Stop spreading your lies!"

"Lies? Hahaha! Hahahahaha!"

Wang Jixuan couldn’t help but laugh.

He wandered among the clouds, his form slightly deranged, a hint of tears in his laughter.

"Three lifetimes of cultivation, three lifetimes of cultivation.

"To ascend this Immortal Gate, I cultivated three paths, even creating dozens of Devil Skills in my second life to make up for my deficiencies in Taoist Skills! I’ve tried every method!

"In my second life, I should have entered the Immortal Realm!

"But what happened then? A Dark Sect Expert pointed a finger, knocking me down!

"Why would this Dark Sect Expert target a minor Immortal like me? It’s obvious—it was the Heavenly Dao."

Wang Jixuan’s expression grew a bit agitated:

"What is so wrong with living beings seeking longevity?

"I’ve cultivated for so long, doing no evil deeds, seizing no treasures, merely seeking the Tao with all my heart, wishing only to achieve the Great Path True Self! But what have I received? It’s the deliberate obstruction of the Heavenly Dao!

"It should not have this obstructive consciousness!

"It should be selfless! It should view this world with eyes devoid of emotion, not as it is now!

"A monster! A monster that clings to heaven and earth! It is watching you! It wants to devour this mundane world!"

"Enough!"

An Immortal Soldier suddenly shouted in anger.

He trembled all over and shouted, "Without the protection of the Heavenly Dao, how terrible would the death toll be!"

"What do the disputes of living beings have to do with the Heavenly Dao!"

Another Immortal Soldier shouted indignantly, "You can’t enjoy the order provided by the Heavenly Dao and simultaneously blame it for meddling too deeply in the mortal world!"

"All of us Cultivators combined, do we have the impact of a Golden Immortal’s finger on heaven and earth? Do we weigh even a hair of Da Luo?"

Wang Jixuan coldly shouted back:

"If the Heavenly Dao has the ability, it should rule over them! Bullying the weak, it’s just that simple!"

"Shut up!"

More than a hundred Immortal Soldiers simultaneously roared in fury.

Their eyes glowed with golden light.

In a trance, Wang Jixuan saw that behind this group of Immortal Soldiers who blocked his road to ascension, golden threads seemed to extend, with their source being the dark cloud beneath the Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud!

Damn it... What the hell!

Did this poor Daoist guess correctly?

At this moment, Mu Dan reminded using directional transmission: "Preparation is complete."

Wang Jixuan shook his head abruptly, and the bizarre scene vanished instantly.

Wang Jixuan’s Adam’s apple throbbed a few times, his eyes igniting with flames, he suddenly raised his hand and struck his left shoulder.

The Black Dragon slowly crawled out from his shoulder, beginning to meander around him.

Wang Jixuan, holding the Moonlight Sword, said calmly, "Since that’s the case, there’s no point in saying more... Today, let me open your eyes! Where are the Ancient Ruins!"

He raised the longsword high, letting out a furious roar.

The world fell silent for three seconds, then from behind him and eight directions in front, eight colossal spires suddenly revealed their phantoms.

The tops of these spires simultaneously emitted dazzling beams, intersecting with one another, then the eight spires simultaneously collapsed, causing strong turbulence of the Universe to appear, light screens broke apart and descended.

A magnificent, grand metal city with towering spires slowly manifested between heaven and earth.

First Base!

Ascend to it!

All the buildings simultaneously crashed downward, and the countless mechanical shadows flying from them became like smoke rising skywards, spreading across the entire heavens and earth in an instant.
