Chapter 74: Today, Ascension through Rainbow Light!
Heavenly anomalies, celestial gates opening!
At this moment, all cultivators and mortals across the world were in an uproar, watching the various phenomena in the sky with incomprehensible shock.
“Is that the Celestial Realm?”
The anomalies were located high above the sky, far yet close at hand.
Celestial Realm.
Mysterious and unfathomable, boundless and vast, those wondrous and mystical scenes left people in awe, yet they seemed unattainable.
But now, the Celestial Realm was closer to the Mortal Realm than ever before.
So close that people from all over could see it clearly, whether they were cultivators or mortals.
Incomparably wondrous.
Palaces and pavilions of the celestial realm, magnificent and splendid.
And there were thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, as beautiful as a song, hanging upside down among the floating immortal mountains, with immortal qi swirling and colorful clouds surging.
Central State.
Outside a secluded ancient village, Ye Xi looked up, his eyes calm, a cold smile curling at the corners of his mouth.
“Is this really the Celestial Realm?”
Not far away, Hua Hongyi, dressed in a long red dress, stared fixedly at the sky, lost in thought.
Is this really the Celestial Realm?
Her chest heaved, her heart surging!
Once, she had been incredibly yearning for the Celestial Realm, deeply obsessed, willing to pay any price to ascend.
But after following Ye Xi, she learned more truths.
Hua Hongyi knew that behind the beauty might lie a fatal trap.
“Huu—”
Hua Hongyi took a deep breath, suppressing her heart’s turmoil.
Her gaze shifted to Ye Xi nearby.
She placed all her hopes on Ye Xi now, silently thinking:
“You said one day, you would take me to the Celestial Realm!”
Almost simultaneously.
Liyue Celestial Dynasty.
Ye Qingge and Qing Dai appeared in a flash, their figures appearing atop the Star-Catching Tower of the Celestial Dynasty.
One human, one demon, both looking up at the anomalies in the sky.
They exchanged a glance, horror flashing in their eyes.
Moments later.
Ye Qingge regained her composure, her eyes bursting with icy coldness, a shocking aura erupting.
The temperature around them instantly dropped several degrees.
Qing Dai turned her head and asked, “Why did the Celestial Realm’s gate suddenly open? Do you think this is just a coincidence?”
The last time the Celestial Realm’s gate opened was three thousand years ago.
But the time before that, eight thousand years ago.
That meant the interval between two openings was getting shorter.
And in even earlier times, the gate only opened once every ten thousand years.
There might be some conspiracy behind it.
Ye Qingge pondered for a moment and slowly said, “It doesn’t matter whether it’s a coincidence or a conspiracy.”
“As for when I ascend, only I can decide!”
Qing Dai didn’t speak further, looking at the sky and taking a deep breath. Then she said, “The Celestial Realm, something I once couldn’t even imagine!”
Jade Pool Sacred Land.
Yuan Ruoyu stood atop the sacred land, with a group of elders following closely behind.
Everyone stared in disbelief at the anomalies in the sky.
Grand Elder Wei Yuan and others looked at Yuan Ruoyu with complicated expressions, regret flashing in their eyes.
“If the Celestial Realm wasn’t having problems, the Holy Sovereign could have ascended today.”
“What a pity!”
Wei Yuan sighed softly, and the rest nodded.
Although they now knew ascending was a trap, they had once considered ascending to the Celestial Realm as their lifelong pursuit.
Now, with the celestial gates opening, they dared not ascend.
This made these contemporary geniuses feel complex and uncomfortable.
After a long while.
Yuan Ruoyu withdrew her gaze, her face unusually calm as she said indifferently,
“Just watch the spectacle.”
Yuan Ruoyu remained unmoved. Not only had Lin Feng exposed the trap of ascending, but the ancestor of the sacred land had warned them!
Never ascend!
Of course, she wouldn’t rashly ascend to the Celestial Realm now.
Elsewhere, the leaders of major forces and powerful independent cultivators shared similar sentiments.
Some still believed in the Celestial Realm.
Even if the Eternal Emperor was powerful, he was only one person. Could he make definitive judgments about the Celestial Court with just a few words?
Everyone had their own thoughts and choices.
Of course, there were also many who believed in the Eternal Emperor, believing he had no reason to deceive the entire cultivation world.
What benefits could he gain?
However, whether they believed or not, for most people, it didn’t matter since they weren’t being asked to ascend…
Only Emperors in the Tribulation Period could ascend.
Many cultivators tragically realized they might spend their entire lives cultivating without even having the qualifications to be “harvested.”
This was indeed a disheartening fact.
Jiang Family Grounds.
Jiang Wujì and a group of figures shrouded in cloaks were also excitedly watching the sky.
“The celestial gate has opened!”
“Our chance has come, hahaha!”

Jiang Wujì’s face flushed with excitement, his fists clenched tightly, unable to suppress a roar: “Everything is still within my control!”
“…”
Behind him, everyone was silent, too embarrassed to speak.
Though they were also very excited.
This was indeed something worth celebrating; whether they could overthrow the Eternal Emperor’s camp depended on this.
Even if Ye Xi and Que Ruyi and others resisted and were unwilling to ascend, the Celestial Court would have backup plans and reasons to openly intervene in the Mortal Realm.
Boom!
Boom!
Suddenly, the anomalies in the sky changed again, thunderous sounds echoing like muffled thunder.
Shaking the Nine States.
Various dazzling colors, overwhelmingly bright, made the world incredibly luminous.
“That is, the gate to the Celestial Realm!”
In everyone’s shocked gazes, a majestic and grand gateway slowly appeared, standing between the Celestial Realm and the Mortal Realm.
The gateway was like a heavenly barrier, enveloped in celestial light.
A mysterious fluctuation spread out, completely separating the Celestial Realm from the Mortal Realm.
This heavenly gate was the boundary between heaven and earth.
Since tens of thousands of years ago, cultivators from the Mortal Realm wanted to ascend to become immortals by passing through this gateway.
Now, this heavenly gate slowly opened.
Glorious rainbow lights passed through from the other side, descending upon the Nine States.
Within the rainbow light was a passage.
“Ascension rainbow light!”
Countless cultivators took deep breaths, enviously watching the beams of light falling down.
The heavenly gate naturally sensed the will of heaven.
These ascension rainbow lights would descend upon Emperors who had reached the Tribulation Period.
Then, the Emperors would ascend through the celestial gate.
Ascending to heaven in one step!
Achieving the ultimate dream and belonging of cultivators, becoming immortals and roaming the Celestial Realm.
Nine States.
Rainbow lights descended, emitting mysterious fluctuations, sensing for a moment before finding their respective owners.
Jade Pool Sacred Land.
Que Ruyi stepped on lotus flowers, wearing a snow-white dress, graceful and elegant.
A rainbow light enveloped her.
This added a mysterious and transcendent aura to her, truly resembling a peerless fairy descending from the heavens.
Grand Elder Wei Yuan and others held their breath, not daring to move.
Their eyes were fixed on Que Ruyi.
As long as Que Ruyi showed any movement or gave any orders, they were ready to handle any unexpected situations.

On the other side, outside the secluded village.
Ye Xi was bathed in rainbow light, yet his expression remained extremely calm.
He curiously examined the light on his body.
“Hmm! This feeling is quite nice!”
Ye Xi carefully felt it and muttered.
This made Hua Hongyi roll her eyes.
If she didn’t know this was a trap, she would have thought Ye Xi was boasting in triumph.
—
In a tranquil place, a mountain peak exploded.
Purple Paulownia Great Emperor, hidden in black mist, was also chosen by a rainbow light.
In addition, many emperors who were usually low-key and unheard of also emerged.
Under the rainbow light, they were revealed.
For example, the Patriarch of the Pei family, the Supreme Elder of the Primordial Sacred Land, and other top-level sects and families’ emperors.
Even some independent emperors appeared one by one.
Usually hard to see great emperors were now revealed under the ascension rainbow light, numbering dozens.
Because several dozen rainbow lights had descended.
Most of these emperors had broken through to the Tribulation Period in the past three thousand years.
It wasn’t particularly unusual.
Many cultivators secretly sighed, realizing the cultivation world was truly full of hidden talents, with so many great emperors hiding out!
—
Liyue Celestial Dynasty.
Amidst the stern vigilance of countless strong celestial dynasty cultivators, two rainbow lights descended.
Ye Qingge and Qing Dai were each enveloped by a rainbow light.
Beast!
Advancing to Tier 9, their strength and realm were on par with human great emperors, and they were also set to ascend.
After a long while.
When no more rainbow lights descended from the heavenly gate, they began to contract, pulling the great emperors upward with a suction force.
The rainbow lights slowly rose!
The ascension of dozens of great emperors on Earth, this scene was projected onto the Nine States, visible everywhere.
The scene was indeed spectacular and captivating!
Suddenly, a change occurred. Ye Qingge snorted coldly, her terrifying aura erupting.
Domain unfolded!
Ye Qingge’s eyes were incredibly cold, holding a whip, her presence domineering, shouting:
“Get lost!”
“When do I ascend, and when did you get to decide?”
