Below, figures instantly shot forth.

Mu Dan dispatched a group of high-speed flying devices, but strangely, these devices did not touch any tangible objects, slicing through the seven-colored auspicious clouds.

"Boss, it’s not solid! There might be a problem!"

Wang Jixuan remained silent, deep in thought.

Below, Mao Mo led Xiao Na and others charging forward, directly crashing into the stone wall.

The squad completed their transfer.

The mechanical squad dispatched by Mu Dan protected a large amount of data chips, as well as a fleet of base vehicles, swiftly entering the Second Base.

This way, when they construct the new First Base later, it will be quite simple.

The cultivators also made a decision.

About half charged towards Wang Jixuan, entering the stone plate behind Wang Jixuan. As they departed, they didn’t say anything, just made a Daoist bow to the figure of Wang Jixuan enveloped in demonic Qi.

Though cultivating demon skills, yet carrying out righteous deeds;

This isn’t the righteous path, yet it’s not an evil path.

Feeling something in his heart, Wang Jixuan raised his hand to grasp at the seven-colored clouds above. The clouds radiated a beam of light, enveloping Wang Jixuan’s figure against the iron curtain formed by the mechanical bodies.

Wang Jixuan’s body began to slowly ascend.

"Quick!"

Wang Jixuan shouted downwards.

Below, each Daoist made a Daoist bow, indicating their intent to go to Tianluo.

Among them was a familiar figure... Master Tai Ye...

Everyone has their own aspirations, Wang Jixuan simply nodded lightly, not doing anything more, swung his large sleeves, and the stone plate flew back into the storage magical treasure, which was then tucked into an immortal treasure by Wang Jixuan.

Having finished this, he had no further concerns.

"Mu Dan, have you set the self-destruct program?"

"It’s set."

"Good," Wang Jixuan squinted slightly, "Does this count as, one man ascends and the entire household ascends to heaven?"

"Not really, since you just take them to the Immortal Realm to escape the Dark Sect’s subsequent revenge, not cultivating them into members of your own force."

Mu Dan clicked her tongue:

"Boss, the Heavenly Punishment has moved."

"Hmm," Wang Jixuan responded sullenly.

A strong sense of forewarning rose in his heart.

But there was no choice, the Heavenly Punishment lay just ahead, and being led to the Immortal Gate meant he couldn’t avoid this Heavenly Punishment.

This is the will of the Heavenly Dao.

Damn the will of the Heavenly Dao!

Wang Jixuan’s nostrils trembled slightly, and the demonic Qi around him surged, Primordial Spirit, Alien Soul, and Dao Body resonated simultaneously, the Black Dragon formed into armor covering his entire body, and the Moonlight Sword in his hand brewed a white light.

Beneath the seven-colored auspicious cloud, a pair of eyes suddenly appeared in the dark clouds.

The very eyes through which the Heavenly Dao once watched him.

It was said that if he died, Mu Dan would go berserk, resulting in an even greater calamity...

Nonsense!

All of it complete nonsense!

Want him to remain silent in the Mortal World, want him to stand outside the Immortal Gate, then come on!

The eyes suddenly emitted a purple light.

Purple-black divine thunder transformed into a thunder pillar, striking down on Wang Jixuan directly!

No way to dodge!

The characteristic of Heavenly Punishment is that it cannot be evaded.

Wang Jixuan’s arm moved, already becoming Qingping Sword Intent, and under the heavy pressure of the Heavenly Dao, Qingping Sword Intent had a brand new breakthrough, a giant tree was about to spread its branches.

The purple-black divine thunder struck, and the giant tree instantly exploded!

Wang Jixuan’s figure was struck by the thunder pillar, suppressed, and the seven-colored rosy clouds that guided Wang Jixuan completely snapped, while the Black Dragon around Wang Jixuan roared skyward in anger, black Qi continuously exploding.

The Black Dragon forcefully raised its head!

Wang Jixuan’s figure stabilized!

That purple-black thunder pillar showed no sign of dissipating, continuously releasing spiritual power, and this spiritual power seemed to be endless, at the moment showing no sign of ceasing.

Mu Dan swiftly took action, letting the warship release a long-range shield, but this shield couldn’t consume even an ounce of the divine thunder’s power.

All Mu Dan could do was one thing—collect data, analyze the Heavenly Dao.

But she was in no mood now.

She hid in the central spire of the Second Base, watching Wang Jixuan withstand the Heavenly Punishment, watching the Black Dragon around Wang Jixuan gradually disintegrate, watching Wang Jixuan’s Daoist robe burst apart inch by inch, his skin burn and dissolve, revealing the horrifying membranes inside, the membranes rapidly melting, his body nearly fading away...

Ding!

The Moonlight Sword instinctively protected its master, leaping in front of Wang Jixuan.

But within three seconds, the Moonlight Sword was bounced away with a clink, cracks appeared on it.

Buzz!

The Stone of the Past appeared in front of Wang Jixuan, forcibly blocking the divine thunder, but Wang Jixuan could sense that Senior Bai Gu was silently withstanding pressure tens of thousands of times greater than on his side.

The Heavenly Dao directly suppressed Senior Bai Gu.

The Heavenly Dao just wants him to die here!

"Ah!"

Wang Jixuan let out a loud shout, his eyes filled with reluctance.

But the third Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder showed no sign of ending.

Once again, for the third time, he felt that sense of powerlessness, that sense of being powerless against the mighty force of Heaven and Earth.

Since it’s like this!

Then burn! Burn the self! Even if only a residual soul remains, he must walk through this gate to see!

This is his dream!

All of his dreams!

Wang Jixuan’s hands, now nothing but flesh and bone, swiftly formed seals.

Three Souls Ignition, Seven Spirits Start Burning, Three Pure Ones’ Decree, expel demons with the body, urgent as a command...

"Jixuan..."

A voice called, and a surge of mana suddenly poured in from behind him.

Wang Jixuan was stunned, bewildered, looking to his side.

An old Daoist, somewhat disheveled, smiled at him gently, instantly channeling most of his mana into him, sharing the same origin and lineage.

Then, the old Daoist nodded at him, flashed forward, his robe waving, hands pushing forward.

"Wangxian Valley, honored to have you."

"Master..."

Swish, swish!

Two figures appeared one after another behind Tai Ye, an old beggar and a white-clothed Immortal, both Mahayana for many years.

"Kid! Debt repaid!"

"Fellow, please be kind to our sect’s disciples."

They each showed their skills, filling the gap as Tai Ye’s figure was shattered.

Several more figures arrived, rushing toward the Divine Thunder.

A Mahayana master from Wangxian Valley appeared directly behind Wang Jixuan, palms pressing on Wang Jixuan’s Dao Body. Even though he didn’t rush forward, if Wang Jixuan couldn’t withstand the Divine Thunder, he would also be doomed.

They kept laughing and sighing:

"Fellow, did you sleep with Heaven’s wife? Why does it hate you so?"

"If not for you, this poor Daoist would have died several times, repaying you, repaying you!"

"The righteous path of the mortal world, may fellow continue to uphold it."

"If Heaven falls to demons, it can also be slain!"

"Please take care of our sect’s disciples!"

"Sen...ior..."

Wang Jixuan’s hoarse voice couldn’t call out.

He looked up and shouted, a flame bursting out from his forehead.

One by one, the figures ahead vanished, the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder charged at him again, and Wang Jixuan clenched his right fist, throwing a punch forward without any flair.

Burn my Primordial Spirit, wrap my Dao Body.

Wang Jixuan’s body seemed to burst with seven-colored rosy clouds!

This is his everything;

This is their everything.

Bang!

Wang Jixuan heard the sound of something shattering, his body stumbling uncontrollably forward a few steps.

He looked forward in bewilderment, seeing a shattered black Treasure Bead fall downward.

The stream of seven-colored rosy clouds surged again, enveloping Wang Jixuan, pulling him forward gently.

Wang Jixuan opened his mouth, excruciating pain sweeping over him, making him nearly fall into an eternal sleep the next moment.

He looked down.

Nine figures were missing, and many Daoists bowed their heads, seeming to bid farewell.

His tear ducts, already burnt away, couldn’t secrete tears, so he could only press his chest with his left hand, making a hoarse sound.

’Jixuan, your master may have died at the hands of demon cultivators, but at his death, he used his righteous spirit to detonate his own Primordial Spirit, severely injuring dozens of demon cultivators, a great hero of the cultivation world... Don’t be too sad, your master was fiery by nature. If you ever encounter difficulties, or are confused about cultivation, come to your master’s cave.’

’Your senior sister went to Bai Fan Hall, seems she wants to find a Daoist couple, Master thinks you’re the right age, doesn’t the routine of cultivation bore you... Oh ho, you’re blushing?’

’Jixuan, I don’t think you’re ready to face the tribulation...’

Wang Jixuan opened his mouth, the terrifying injuries on him being healed by Immortal Spirit Qi.

The Immortal Spirit Qi released by the Immortal Gate was cool and seemed to have a soothing effect on his emotions.

He looked up and saw the splendid, boundless, eternal world behind the Immortal Gate.

So, he stumbled in.

’To become immortal should be like this, press forward with indomitable will, challenge the tribulation!’

’Even if this poor Daoist fails the tribulation, these six thousand years of carefree days are worth it.’

What about now?

What should the mental state of the self in this third life be?

Wang Jixuan raised his hand to touch the light membrane of the Immortal Gate, a suction force came, his body falling forward, weightlessness setting in, a familiar qi enveloping him.

That abnormal power of the Heavenly Dao had completely retreated.

Senior Bai Gu had been waiting there for a long time, grabbing him by the neck and disappearing with him.

’Ah, this is becoming immortal.’
