Chapter 21: Invite White Emperor Bai Lian! (2)
These must be the remains of a dragon whose strength rivaled that of an immortal!
No wonder the snake dragon called this ritual the Ceremony of Inviting Immortals. It makes perfect sense—completely reasonable!
What caught Bai Lian’s attention was an “altar” situated in the middle of the colossal skeleton.
An altar resting on the remains of a massive dragon, drifting in the endless void—this was beyond imagination!
Dragon Altar.
Please.
Bai Lian walked toward the altar.
As she approached, a soft white light illuminated the altar.
Then, a distant, ethereal voice echoed.
“After all these years, has someone finally arrived?”
A faint trace of Divine Sense emanated from the altar, its presence first settling on Ling Xuan.
“This constitution!”
The white light grew brighter.
“With such qualifications, you are destined to carry forward my inheritance!”
Bai Lian detected a note of excitement in the voice.
“Enter my Immortal Gate, and the world will bow before you!”
Huh?
Bai Lian froze. She recognized that line.
Wasn’t that the Fifth Martial Sister’s ultimate skill in the game?
Understanding dawned on her.
No wonder “Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian” in the game had found Ling Xuan in Yao Xia Bay. Ling Xuan must have come here seeking this inheritance.
Bai Lian surmised that, in the game, Ling Xuan had likely known the snake dragon, who had pointed her toward this unique cultivation path.
It all makes sense now!
Even those without any spiritual Qi could perform the Ceremony of Inviting Immortals.
Even if Ling Xuan hadn’t known how to enter this space, the snake dragon in the game would surely have guided her.
Thank you, snake dragon!
Perhaps this was destiny. This inheritance was meant for the Fifth Martial Sister.
Bai Lian gently grasped Ling Xuan’s hand and gave her a reassuring pat on the back.
“Go ahead,” she encouraged.
The baby eagle was ready to spread its wings and soar!
With this, Qiongming Peak’s trajectory was set.
Bai Lian mentally listed her priorities.
Her next task would be to gather all kinds of resources to nurture her four younger Martial Sisters.
Unlike the in-game “Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian,” who was as black-hearted as charcoal and drained her sisters of their worth, this Bai Lian was determined to nourish them until they were healthy, thriving, and plump!
“I…”
Ling Xuan hesitated.
She had come here hoping to find a way to resurrect her late grandfather, nothing more.
She had no cultivation aptitude, no talent—how could she suddenly be called a genius?
Nervousness crept in, and doubts began to plague her.
Could this be a scam?
But Sister Bai Lian had spoken with such confidence, and there was no reason to mistrust her.
All right, Ling Xuan decided. I’ll do it.
Sister Bai Lian, I’ll do my best to catch up to you.
Ling Xuan stepped forward, but before she could reach the altar, the white light shifted.
It swiveled away from Ling Xuan and locked onto Bai Lian instead.
“Huh?”
Somewhere in the distance, Ling Xuan thought she heard a faint murmur.
For Bai Lian, the sensation was unmistakable.
The faint Divine Sense that had been inspecting Ling Xuan was now focused entirely on her.
It felt as though it was analyzing her, studying her every detail.
After a brief pause, the white light from the altar flared violently.
“This is…”
The voice within the altar quivered.
What had it seen?
When it first observed Ling Xuan, it had assumed that its long-awaited successor had finally appeared.
But now, it realized it had been mistaken.
The little girl was nothing compared to what it now beheld.
In Terms of Physical Fitness
Bai Lian’s physical strength surpassed that of 10,000 Ling Xuans combined!
This was clearly a [God].
It was so powerful that the ember in the altar couldn’t help but tremble with excitement.
The light of hope had appeared—how could it let this opportunity slip away?!
Ling Xuan?
The ember knew nothing about Ling Xuan!
The remnant ember in the altar eagerly addressed Bai Lian:
“Enter my Immortal Gate, and the world will bow to you!”
“If you accept my inheritance, even Celestial Immortals will be at your feet!”
Ling Xuan: “(╯⊙⊱⊙╰)”
Ah, this…
Bai Lian was just as bewildered.
Wait! What’s happening?
Why had the inheritance suddenly shifted to her?
No, I must refuse!
There was no way she’d make her Fifth Martial Sister cry!
Bai Lian quickly shook her head. “I’m not interested in your inheritance.”
She wasn’t lying.
The ember, however, was confident. Its cultivation method could subjugate Celestial Immortals, which meant it must have been a Star Lord or Demigod in life—if it had been an Immortal Emperor, it wouldn’t need to boast like this.
This was indeed a tempting offer. Anyone else would have accepted it without hesitation.
But Bai Lian’s master was a Heavenly Lord! Though Bai Lian’s strength wasn’t great, her horizons had been broadened under An Lan’s tutelage.
Demigod?
Could you defeat my Shifu, An Lan?
Bai Lian had no interest in its inheritance—she preferred to live under her master’s care!
“You’d better pass the inheritance to my younger Martial Sister,” Bai Lian said firmly.
The ember was taken aback. “Inheritance is not a trivial matter! How can I just hand it over randomly?”
Seeing Bai Lian about to protest again, the ember quickly continued, “Perhaps you don’t understand what Celestial Immortals are. Let me explain. The ultimate goal of cultivation is to achieve longevity. Celestial Immortals are the pinnacle of all immortals in the Immortal World. If you accept my inheritance, no one in this world, the Immortal World, the Three Thousand Great Regions, or among the stars will be your equal!”
Mortals, tremble!
“Oh.”
However, Bai Lian remained unimpressed.
What self-flattery!
You’ve never met my Shifu. If you dared to say that in front of An Lan, she’d immediately teach you what true “invincibility” means.
Meanwhile, Ling Xuan’s reaction was growing more intense.
“Can we become immortals if we accept your inheritance?”
“Of course!”
The ember’s tone was filled with pride. It had been a Demigod of a large region in its prime!
Ling Xuan’s eyes sparkled. “If we become immortals, can we master the Great Tao?”
The ember froze.
Little girl, stop asking nonsense!
But it eventually replied in a softer tone, “Of course!”
Ling Xuan’s smile widened.
Master Snake Dragon was right—there’s a way to revive my grandpa in this Green Dragon Relic!
But… Ling Xuan hesitated.
Given her limited aptitude, becoming an immortal might be too difficult. This opportunity was better suited for Sister Bai Lian.
Turning around, she said resolutely, “Sister Bai Lian, you should accept the inheritance.”
“Don’t make a fuss.” Bai Lian gently ruffled Ling Xuan’s hair. “This inheritance is useless to me. It’s your chance—how could I steal it from my Martial Sister?”
Ling Xuan was deeply moved, but since this was about her grandpa’s resurrection, she had to be cautious.
“I’m not going, Sister Bai Lian. You should do it!”
The two remained at an impasse.
The ember was speechless.
Damn it!
Do you two even understand what Celestial Immortals are?!
They’re Celestial Immortals!!!
Frustrated, the ember interrupted their argument. “Why are you arguing over such a trivial matter? I’ll teach you my cultivation method, and you can pass it on to your younger Martial Sister. Doesn’t that solve everything?”
Bai Lian’s eyes lit up.
“Well, since you agree to teach my Martial Sister, why hesitate any further?”
