Chapter 862: Ascending to Immortality  

Beyond the mountains and rivers, many people were still paying attention to the dark sphere, even though it had been many years.

In recent days, the number of people watching had increased.

Everyone could sense that the aura of death was spreading.

The sphere was about to dissipate.

Most people wanted to witness the death of the person inside the sphere.

Some wanted Dole, while others wanted the one from the Astronomical Academy to fail.

Regardless, there were very few who hoped for those inside to come out alive.

Some of Dole’s seniors didn’t want him to live either because they knew that Dole might become even more powerful because of the person from the Astronomical Academy.

It was human nature to feel like that.

Even on the cultivation path, such things always affected people if they weren’t mature enough.

Senior Sister Lin looked outside. She felt complicated.

She didn’t know Dole too well, but he had given her some spirit stones.

If he died, the spirit stones would be hers.

If he lived, she had to return the spirit stones.

That wasn’t a problem at all for her.

She was curious about Dole. If he managed to survive, she would gladly return the spirit stones and extend a hand of friendship.

Perhaps one day, she might need him.

She realized that she was judging a person based on their usefulness, just like everyone else.

She thought she wouldn’t be like that, but it seemed everyone was defined by what they could offer.

Unfortunately, it seemed Dole might not survive.

Darkness had already covered everything.

“Dole is doomed. I knew it would come to this,” said a man smugly.

“We should take this as a lesson. Associating with an immortal sect is not always a good thing,” said a woman.

Others nodded in agreement.

Senior Sister Lin shook her head.

There were also people in the Mountain River Valley Sect who were secretly watching the dark sphere.

His vitality was about to dissipate.

Some sighed, while others rejoiced.

Just then, the vitality in the high sky dissipated. It seemed that everyone inside was about to die.

If Dole didn’t die, he would come out soon.

Those targeting Dole were ready to deliver a fatal blow.

Crack!

The black sphere began to crack, and the Astronomical Scroll descended slowly.

Many lowered their heads and sighed. It was finally over.

However, just as some were about to take action, a faint light emerged from the cracks. Then, the light spread throughout the black sphere.

It felt as if the black sphere was about to erupt with light.

After that, the colors of the world changed, and a celestial energy gathered.

A heavenly path appeared in the sky.

It dazzled everyone.

The path of immortality attacked the black sphere.

Boom!

The black sphere erupted.

A figure manifested in the sky. She stood there as if she were a goddess from Ninth Heaven.

Beside her was an unconscious man.

Yan Yuezhi bowed and then stepped into the sky. She embarked on the path of immortality.

Everyone was in shock.

Dole was unconscious, but he was still within the range of the immortal path.

Even being there was enormously beneficial for him.

At that moment, those who had intended to make a move retreated. They didn’t dare to linger there.

The person from the Astronomical Academy had succeeded. No one dared to go after Dole now.

If someone dared to do that, the one from the Astronomical Academy would annihilate their entire bloodline.

Many people were reluctant to act. They knew this woman would come for revenge.

The disciples of the Mountain River Valley Sect were astonished.

They wished they were in Dole’s shoes right now.

Senior Sister Lin breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed she would get to know Dole a bit more.

Many in the sect thought the same.

Even those who had mocked and insulted him before wanted to get to know him.

Even the Sect Master didn’t think Dole was this fortunate.

Guan Zhongfei also woke up. He had been trapped all this while.

He thought he had seen a lot, but he couldn’t remember properly.

He was amazed to find that Dole hadn’t died but had gained significant opportunities.

He felt something strange. The marks on his body seemed to have disappeared.

He checked all around.

At that moment, he found a book beside him. It recorded a technique.

There was also a note attached to it:

“We used your gaze. This is a gift for you.”

Guan Zhongfei felt nervous. He instantly thought of Smiling San Sheng.

‘Is it him?’

The one from the Astronomical Academy had succeeded, and Dole had gained even more opportunities.

Guan Zhongfei wondered if Smiling San Sheng had intervened.

He broke into a cold sweat. He had done everything Smiling San Sheng had told him to do.

Otherwise, it would have been disastrous.

Jiang Hao and his group had already left, but the distant immortal path was still visible.

Jiang Hao sighed with emotion. After making sure everything was okay, they left.

The Great Thousand God Sect and The End of All Things had no connection with them.

Jing Dajiang wanted to follow them but decided not to.

Jiang Hao asked him why.

“With the Jade Pendant of Fortune in your hands, a vortex is about to form. It’s better not to get too close.”

The three of them left reluctantly.

They asked if Jiang Hao had brought any identity tokens from the academy.

Jiang Hao shook his head.

Then a piece of paper fell into his hand, with the words “Backyard” written on it.

There was also a passage that he couldn’t see clearly.

This kind of token was quite remarkable.

Finally, Jing Dajiang said, “Friend, don’t lose it again.” He then left.

Jiang Hao didn’t reject it.

The identity of Gu Jin was troublesome. But there were advantages too.

The Jade Pendant of Fortune seemed to be related to the Sage’s Pages. Perhaps he would be the one to find those pages.

“The vortex is about to form,” Hong Yuye said suddenly.

Jiang Hao was puzzled.

“The Jade Pendant of Fortune is even more extraordinary than lucky treasures. Do you think someone lacking luck and karma will give up?” Hong Yuye asked.

Jiang Hao thought of something. The corpses might come to seize the jade pendant or the person holding it.

He realized that he could practice and comprehend better with the jade pendant in his hand.

That was a good thing.

He wondered if it could be used to digest the divine soul of the Holy Master.

If it could, he would save a lot of spirit stones..
