Chapter 218 The Grand Finale of the Shaking Immortal Path
It started raining, and the dense drizzle enveloped the construction site where work had been suspended. The huge foundation pit was filled with water everywhere, but several figures were patrolling the mud pit without hesitation, their eyes cautiously scanning the surroundings.
"Manager, only four hours have passed, there shouldn't be any news yet. You should go and take a break!" A Longting employee placed a cup of tea on the table.
Dong Zhen responded with a cold smile, took the teacup and warmed his hands with it, then looked again at the rain curtain outside the tent. The entrance to the ancient tomb not far away was hazy and indistinct.
It was 6:30 pm, and with the rain starting, the light was very dim.
"There are so many cultivators in the ancient tomb, I can't rest easy." Dong Zhen sighed, his eyes filled with schadenfreude. In his opinion, it would be better if all the cultivators who entered the ancient tomb died.
"You're worried about the people from the Dark Dharma Assembly, aren't you? There are so many cultivators inside, at least ten of them at the Golden Core stage. Are you afraid they'll cause trouble?"
Before the Longting employee could finish speaking, a loud explosion rang out.
A cloud of dust suddenly rose from the entrance of the ancient tomb, quickly dissipating in the rain.
"Surround them, don't let a single one escape!" Dong Zhen roared, leaping into the air to guard the entrance to the ancient tomb.
The Dragon Court employees surrounded the tomb, taking out various weapons in the rain and aiming them at it.
A short while later, several disheveled figures emerged from the dissipating dust. Raindrops washed away the sand and dust, revealing their true appearance.
"Only a few left?" Dong Zhen sneered, landing in front of them and carefully examining each one.
"There are only four women left in Linfeng Ward... Where is your ward master?"
"Three Golden Core stage cultivators?"
"Hey, who are you?"
Dong Zhen's expression changed, and a murderous aura instantly filled the entire foundation pit. The surrounding Longting employees stepped forward in unison, letting out a low roar, their fighting spirit palpable.
The long-haired man raised his head, revealing a handsome face.
"My name is Zhuo Yang. I previously used Yang Lingfeng's identity. Manager Dong can ask General Manager Xiang for details, and he will know the answer immediately!" Zhuo Yang replied calmly, a smile always on his lips.
Wang Shanlong's demonic infant was blasted to smithereens by the heavenly tribulation, and his corpse was burned to ashes by Lü Qianqian, making him utterly dead.
Zhuo Yang's plan to use the enemy to disperse the power of the Heavenly Tribulation succeeded. He passed the Nascent Soul Tribulation smoothly, his cultivation advanced greatly, and his Nascent Soul became extremely solid, basically reaching the mid-to-late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
Next, as long as Zhuo Yang focuses on improving his Dao heart and preparing to deal with his inner demons, his future cultivation will be much smoother.
The cave was filled with a vast number of magical artifacts, all of which were collected by Lü Qianqian and her companions. The Phoenix Pavilion gained immensely from this battle and, given time, will surely become a formidable force in the cultivation world.
"Don't move, wait for our investigation!" Dong Zhen stared at Zhuo Yang with a suspicious look, then took out his phone and made a video call with Xiang Huahan.
As it turned out, Zhuo Yang was indeed Yang Lingfeng, someone personally arranged by Xiang Huahan... one of their own.
"Zhuo Yang?"
After the video call ended, Dong Zhen looked at Zhuo Yang with a hint of interest, then suddenly chuckled and said, "Kid, what's your relationship with President Xiang? You wouldn't happen to be his...?"
"Manager Dong, be careful what you say, lest you bring trouble upon yourself!" Zhuo Yang smiled faintly, his gaze sharp.
Dong Zhen immediately composed himself and said in a deep voice, "Since you're one of us, what about them?"
His short, thick, and powerful fingers swept over Lü Qianqian, Cui Yi, Chen Guo, and the four disciples of Linfengfang.
"Phoenix Pavilion Master, Lü Qianqian!" With a martial arts salute, Lü Qianqian said proudly, "The Dragon Court has been investigating us for a long time, and today I voluntarily admit it!"
"Cui Yi, the Protector of Phoenix Pavilion!"
"Guardian, Chen Guo!"
Dong Zhen touched his nose. In fact, he had already guessed that they were from Phoenix Pavilion, but he didn't expect them to admit it themselves.
Phoenix Pavilion's admission of its identity suggests it intends to proactively reveal itself and then seize a place in the cultivation world.
The cultivation world is in turmoil, and the Dragon Court is delighted!
"Manager Dong, if the Dragon Court wants to refine pills, come to Lingzhou to find me. Farewell!" Zhuo Yang cupped his hands and smiled, then immediately soared into the sky.
Lü Qianqian and Chen Guo immediately took to the air and caught up.
Cui Yi nodded and smiled at Dong Zhen, then made a subtle gesture before soaring into the sky.
Dong Zhen squinted at the departing figures, then suddenly chuckled, "Is Elder Xiang trying to turn Phoenix Pavilion into another Dragon Court? How interesting!"
……
Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
On the hill of tombstones is an exquisite manor, a villa covering a full 2,000 square meters, with gardens, swimming pools, tennis courts... it has everything, and there is also a parking lot of the same size underground that cannot be seen.
Everything was built to the highest standards, with construction costs alone reaching 500 million yuan, making it undoubtedly the most luxurious residence in Southeast China.
Only Xiao Rou, Xiao Hei, and Xiao Diao, who had successfully transformed into human form, guarded the house; Zhuo Yang rarely returned. At this moment, he was on the other side of the earth, searching for fragments of the Demon Lord's primordial spirit with the help of Lü Qianqian and Chen Guo.
Pan Jianbo and Feng Rong, these two tomb raiders, completely embarked on the path of cultivation and quickly made a good reputation in the circle, known as the "Twin Heroes of Tomb Raiding".
They brought Zhuo Yang a lot of news about fragments of the primordial spirit, keeping him running all over the world and very busy.
"Wow……"
The sound of a baby crying came from inside the villa. The front door was suddenly kicked open, and a delicate figure covered her ears with both hands and ran out as if fleeing.
"Little Black, I can't take it anymore! The Lord's child is a disaster!"
When the young girl Xiao Diao saw Xiao Hei, who was dressed strangely, she couldn't help but complain bitterly.
"Who told you to provoke the master's child?" Little Black held a large rat in his hand, gently stroking it. His exquisite face was bewitching and alluring. "A two-year-old girl can cause more trouble than a demon. Even other mothers are scared and have gone back to the Eastern Manor to pretend to be dead. Are you just bored?"
"I ate too much!" Xiao Diao said, pulling at her white clothes, the same outfit she wore when she first met Zhuo Yang. She cherished it and rarely took it off.
"Forget it, let's leave the young lady with her grandparents and maternal grandfather. I'll just pretend we don't have that troublemaker in the family!"
After saying that, Xiao Diao sat on an ornamental rock, rested his chin on his hands, and stared blankly at the sky.
"Stop looking! Master is still on the other side of Earth. He's probably sleeping with some woman again!" Little Black curled his lip and threw the mouse dozens of meters away. "I really can't understand how Dongfang Ke'er managed to get pregnant with Master's child!"
"There's another child. The Lord sent word that he's keeping him by his side, and he has excellent potential." Xiao Diao sighed, looking very melancholy.
That child was actually born to Fu Jing, and it was a boy!
Last month, the Wang family collapsed. Without Wang Shanlong, the leaderless Wang family business empire disintegrated and was fragmented by various forces. Of course, Zhuo Yang was not the only one responsible for all of this; Longting and Fenghuangge also played a significant role.
When Zhuo Yang left the Wang family, he took a woman and a four-year-old child with him. The woman was Fu Jing.
The Zhuo family is now a large family, with not only Xiao Rou, but also Xiao Diao, Xiao Hei, and Yu Bao, four experts at the Nascent Soul stage. Together with Zhuo Yang himself, they are a powerful force in the world.
In terms of industry, Zhuo Yuze, having revitalized his business, went all out, turning his ideas into reality by investing in emerging industries, which brought the Zhuo family's assets to over 10 billion yuan.
Lin Shishi spends her free time at home taking care of her children, enjoying it immensely, and has long since forgotten about spiritual practice.
After the Wang family fell apart, Zhuo Yang took his parents and children to the Lin family in the capital. The entire Lin family turned out to welcome Lin Shishi back to the family with the highest honors.
After all, Zhuo Yang, a renowned figure in the cultivation world, a guest elder of the Dragon Court, and a prince of the Phoenix Pavilion, is Lin Shishi's son.
Twenty years later, a calamity cloud descended from the sky, obscuring the sky over a hundred miles in radius of the central South China Sea.
On the sea below the edge of the tribulation clouds, on a luxury cruise ship, all members of the Zhuo family and dozens of Golden Core stage disciples of the Unlawful Sect gathered on the foredeck.
Zhuo Yang and Lü Qianqian stood hand in hand on the railing at the bow of the boat, a smile always on their lips, their eyes sweeping over the other wives.
"Disciples of the Zhuo family, disciples of the Wufa family, heed my command!"
At his command, everyone knelt down.
On the bridge, Zhuo Yuze and Lin Shishi, their hair now streaked with white, stood hand in hand, looking at their proud and unyielding son.
"Son...is leaving!"
"He is a god, but he will eventually leave."
The couple looked at each other, nestled together, and both burst into tears.
Chen Guo, Fu Jing, Dongfang Ke'er, Huang Jiaxin, Xiao Diao, Xiao Hei, Xiao Rou, and Yu Bao each stood beside their children, bowed to Zhuo Yang, and then looked at their husband with tears in their eyes.
"Everyone, I'm leaving!" Zhuo Yang glanced at everyone present with satisfaction, then suddenly his expression turned serious, and he announced loudly, "After I leave, none of you must slack off. Cultivate diligently every day. I will be waiting for you in the Immortal Realm!"
Having said that, he stopped arguing and, ignoring the reluctant looks from the crowd, grabbed Lü Qianqian and Chen Guo by the waist, leaped into the air, and the three of them transformed into a bolt of lightning, rushing straight towards the thickest part of the tribulation clouds.
The tribulation is today.
The path to immortality is long and arduous. Tribulation is merely the beginning. Successfully ascending to immortality makes one a minor True Immortal. Above them are the Grand True Immortal, the Grand Mysterious Immortal, the Grand Golden Immortal, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Immortal, the Luo Heaven Upper Immortal, and only then can one attain the Immortal Lord status.
It is impossible to become an immortal lord without tens of thousands of years of cultivation and constant tribulations.
Above the Immortal Lords are the Immortal Emperors, and above the Immortal Emperors are the Immortal Venerables, Quasi-Saints, Saints…
Like Lü Qianqian, Zhuo Yang cultivated demonhood with a mortal body, undergoing heavenly tribulations to continue his cultivation in the immortal realm. It will be a long time before he can return to the demon realm.
"Zhuo Yang, the celestial maidens in the immortal realm are far more beautiful than women in the mortal world. How many concubines do you plan to take?"
Beneath the clouds of tribulation, Lü Qianqian asked softly, as if the heavy pressure before the heavenly tribulation had nothing to do with her.
She pinched the soft flesh of his waist and said hatefully, "I heard that the Supreme Demon Lord once kidnapped a Luo Tian Immortal and took her back to be his wife for thirty years. I wonder if she is still waiting for you!"
"Ahem!" Zhuo Yang cleared his throat, waved his hand magnanimously, and laughed, "How can a mere fairy maiden compare to my beloved Emperor? Besides, I personally escorted her back to the Immortal Realm back then. The marriage is already sealed, and there are no more ties!"
"Hmph!" Lü Qianqian gave a light but cold laugh. "I hope so. If she recognizes you, countless powerful beings in the Immortal Realm will come to capture you. What will you do then? This Emperor will absolutely not help you!"
"It's starting, are you ready?" Zhuo Yang looked at the sky and smiled.
Lu Qianqian was a little annoyed before she could finish speaking, but lightning was gathering in the tribulation clouds, and the heavenly tribulation was about to descend, so she could only shut up and remain silent.
Suddenly, the condensed lightning transformed into a lightning dragon thousands of meters long, crashing down upon the two of them.
"Little Phoenix, I love you!" Zhuo Yang looked into Lü Qianqian's eyes and smiled softly.
"You stinky man, once you're in the Celestial Realm, you're not allowed to flirt with celestial maidens!" Lü Qianqian gave him a charming sidelong glance.
The two smiled at each other and joined hands to face the heavenly tribulation.
