Cultivation: I Can Reincarnate Into Various Worlds-Chapter 691 - 351, Meet the Imperial Son at Emperor’s Son Pavilion again, Black Sky Mirror_2
Major Sects lacked nothing but top-notch battle power to preside over them.
Accompanying a Nascent Soul Saint Monarch was also a fortuitous opportunity for the female cultivators within the sect. He felt no shame in mentioning this.
To this, Xu Xing didn't respond, only shaking his head with a chuckle. He then swung his sleeve, stepped onto a cloud, and sat cross-legged on the head of the Earth Dragon.
The next moment, the Earth Dragon soared into the sky, its tail whipping up a massive hurricane before vanishing over the horizon.
...
...
「One month later.」
Xu Xing found Yan Luanqing at the place agreed upon in the letter. After exchanging pleasantries for several days and discussing the Dao for half a year, they traveled together to the Black Mountain Market in Liang Country to search for the Emperor's Son Pavilion Branch hidden beneath the market.
Over two hundred years had passed, and due to significant changes in the Cultivation World of the Nanyan Continent, the location of the Emperor's Son Pavilion Branch had also changed.
However, with the help of the Emperor's Son Pavilion Token, Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing easily found an Inner Chamber Elder of the Emperor's Son Pavilion—Elder Stone Monkey.
"When I recruited you two back then, one of you was at the Mid-stage Nascent Soul and the other at the Nascent Soul Early Stage..."
"You addressed me as Senior..."
"Now, hundreds of years have passed, and the three of us are at the same realm..."
Upon seeing Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing, Elder Stone Monkey showed a moment of surprise before a wistful expression appeared on his face as he spoke.
In the Cultivation World, the higher the realm a cultivator advanced, the greater the danger.
More than two hundred years ago, the Emperor's Son Pavilion had bestowed more than just two Yuan Shen Pills upon the Pavilion Disciples; there were over a dozen.
However, only two Yuan Shen Pills were made available to ordinary disciples of the Emperor's Son Pavilion.
The House Elders, who were above ordinary disciples, received more Yuan Shen Pills.
Elder Stone Monkey was one of the Inner Chamber Elders who had received a Yuan Shen Pill.
Hearing this, Xu Xing remained noncommittal.
His current Cultivation was already far ahead of Elder Stone Monkey's.
Once his Nascent Soul finished transforming into a Primordial Spirit, he would reach the four-tribulation Nascent Soul Realm.
At this moment, according to his Divine Sense, Elder Stone Monkey had only passed the Life Tribulation and was still a great distance from the Death Tribulation.
Not to mention the Life and Death Tribulation, which was like a Heavenly Barrier.
"Of the cultivators who received Yuan Shen Pills, besides you two, only five successfully advanced. It's already a miracle that neither of you perished," Elder Stone Monkey continued to lament.
"Breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage... So many Daoist friends actually perished?" Yan Luanqing was astounded, a lingering fear showing on her face.
This time, when she had gone into reclusive cultivation at the Yishen Palace Cave to attempt her breakthrough, she had faced perilous situations. However, she eventually overcame the difficulties without any actual harm and successfully achieved the Nascent Soul Stage.
Nevertheless, she still felt a lingering terror from the perilous tribulation.
"This might also be related to your cultivation ages. Cultivation is a path of plundering from heaven and earth to complete oneself..."
"The younger one is, the more favored by the heavens."
Elder Stone Monkey shook his head.
After saying this, Elder Stone Monkey pondered for a moment, then smiled. "Your return to the Emperor's Son Pavilion at this time is a fortunate event for us. We won't need to linger in the Mortal World any longer."
"Why is that?" Xu Xing asked, feigning ignorance.
Through several Fate Deductions, he had already come to know the matter of the Emperor's Son Pavilion's Ascension like the back of his hand.
In reality, however, he was supposed to be completely unaware of these things.
Asking more questions would help him better integrate among the Ascending cultivators of the Emperor's Son Pavilion.
Aloof and taciturn cultivators weren't necessarily inconspicuous; on the contrary, they often made other cultivators more wary.
"Daoist Chang, you might not know, but this Ascension to the Upper realm is a vital matter for our Emperor's Son Pavilion, and the cost is not low."
Elder Stone Monkey mused for a moment, choosing his words carefully before saying, "Generally speaking, we cultivators can only achieve Ascending by Featherization to the Immortal World after crossing the Nascent Soul Nine Tribulations..."
"The Emperor's Son Pavilion providing us the chance to Ascend to the Chiming World is, in fact, a way to sneak into the Upper realm..."
"This time, the Pavilion bestowed a total of seventeen Yuan Shen Pills. Before you two arrived, the status of the other fifteen—including this old man, whether they had broken through or perished—had already been determined..."
"Only you two were left."
"Once the 500-year deadline is reached, if you two haven't arrived, the five of us fellow Daoists will Ascend to the Upper realm..."
"Since you two have arrived early, we can also set off for the Ascension earlier," he said slowly.
At this point, Elder Stone Monkey's gaze fell on Xu Xing, sweeping over him.
In fact, the Emperor's Son Pavilion had confirmed Yan Luanqing's successful breakthrough as early as a hundred years ago but had been delaying the Ascension due to the lack of information about Xu Xing.
He had originally thought Xu Xing had met with some mishap and perished, which was why there had been no news of him.
Unexpectedly... after a hundred years, not only was Xu Xing alive, but his cultivation had also broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage without relying on any Cave in the Nanyan Continent.
How bizarre, Elder Stone Monkey mused.
Not relying on a Nanyan Continent Cave for a breakthrough meant that Xu Xing might have other fortuitous encounters.
However, since this involved a cultivator's personal secrets, he did not probe too deeply.
"I will contact the Pavilion Master now to discuss the specific time for the Ascension..." Elder Stone Monkey said.
To this, Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing had no objections. They had come here for the Ascension, not to reminisce with Elder Stone Monkey.
「A moment later.」
In Elder Stone Monkey's Cave Mansion, a black Stone Mirror displayed the figure of "Imperial Son," the Master of the Emperor's Son Pavilion.
"Red Bird, Mysterious Snake, congratulations on your breakthroughs to the Nascent Soul Stage..."
"Imperial Son" glanced at Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing, a smile of appreciation on his face.
"Having reached the Nascent Soul Stage, you have truly joined my Emperor's Son Pavilion. Here are the Black Sky Mirrors, one for each of you..."
With a wave of his sleeve robe, two Black Sky Mirrors appeared in "Imperial Son's" hand, identical to the Artifact his projection was currently using.
Astonishingly, "Imperial Son" recited an unknown incantation, and the two Black Sky Mirrors were abruptly teleported out from the Mirror Surface, landing directly in Xu Xing's and Yan Luanqing's hands.
This is far more advanced than Chi Yuan's Mirror Light Technique... Xu Xing thought, grateful to "Imperial Son" as he received the Black Sky Mirror and mentally compared it to Chi Yuan's Mirror Light Technique.
Chi Yuan's Mirror Light Technique could instantly create a clone that would appear wherever his Divine Sense was focused.
However, "Imperial Son's" method was undoubtedly more profound, directly using the Black Sky Mirror to transport physical objects.
"Discuss the specific Ascension time among yourselves..."
With a flick of his sleeve robe, the Mirror Surface of Elder Stone Monkey's Black Sky Mirror immediately showed several figures, including Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing.
Seeing this, Xu Xing hurriedly looked at the Black Sky Mirror in his hand.
On his Black Sky Mirror's surface, several figures had also appeared.
Aside from himself, "Imperial Son," Elder Stone Monkey, Yan Luanqing, and four other Primordial Spirit Dao Lords from the Emperor's Son Pavilion were present.
Xu Xing glanced at the Black Sky Mirror in Yan Luanqing's hand and found its Mirror Surface similar; her own figure was absent, but his was there.
Seeing this, Xu Xing understood that during communication, the Mirror Surface would not display the holder's image.
"I still have worldly affairs to settle and require another twenty years. I hope my fellow Daoists will be patient..."
"I too require more time!"
"The inheritance has not yet been completely handed over to the next generation; it is not appropriate to leave rashly!"
"Wait for me for another thirty years..."
While Xu Xing pondered the Magical Prohibition used on the Black Sky Mirror, the several Nascent Soul Saint Monarchs on the Mirror Surface began to communicate, discussing the specifics of the Ascension.
"I have been entrusted with a task and also require ten years to sever my worldly affairs..." Xu Xing mused for a moment, then mentioned his commitment to the Yanshen Sect.
At this moment, the few figures on this Mirror Surface were arguably the supreme powers controlling the Nanyan Continent; a mere stomp of their foot could throw the Nanyan Continent into turmoil for a thousand years.
To him, and to these Nascent Soul Saint Monarchs, the Yanshen Sect's matter was trivial, not worth being evasive about.
Meanwhile, Xu Xing took the opportunity to show the Seven-Colored Glazed Tile to everyone on the Black Sky Mirror, inquiring about the method to open this Treasure. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Xu Xing had estimated the value of the Seven-Colored Glazed Tile. He believed it was valuable enough to warrant the attention of Nascent Soul Saint Monarchs, but not so valuable as to be worth offending another Nascent Soul Saint Monarch over.
Moreover, with "Imperial Son" present, Xu Xing didn't believe these Emperor's Son Pavilion Saint Monarchs would covet the item.
