To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

Chapter 914: Chapter 384 Nine Provinces Ascension_3 Chapter 914: Chapter 384 Nine Provinces Ascension_3 Only a few breaths had passed, and Mo Li felt as though his body was stiffening, his blood about to freeze.

The terrifying cold wind scared Mo Li so much that he hurriedly summoned his magic power, circulating it through his body to protect himself with magic power and drive away the chill.

The other cultivators who had come onto the island also noticed this and quickly used their magic power to resist the cold.

“This cold from Youdu is too severe, even colder than any winter we have experienced before,” someone said.

At that moment, from within the crowd, the Jade Butterfly Dao Master and Mu Yun True Person from Ji Province of the northern territory spoke loudly, “Fellow Daoists, in this cold wind, we must constantly use magic power to maintain warmth in our bodies, and those with lower cultivation will not be able to endure for long.

We are already at the Northern Dark City, how can we allow them to perish right before the gates of ascension without entering?

In Poor Daoist’s opinion, we should quickly enter the heart of Youdu, immediately start the array, and proceed with the ascension of the whole world.

We cannot delay any further.”

Mu Yun True Person was among the cultivators with the highest cultivation level and was nearing the threshold of Gathering Two Qi.

And the sect he belonged to, Jade Butterfly Dao, was the largest Immortal Sect in Ji Province, with twenty-three cultivators who had set out to sea.

Although they had also lost two during the last freeze, they still had the most cultivators among the sects and were considered the First Immortal Sect of the Nine Provinces.

When such a figure spoke, especially considering the lives of many low-level cultivators, naturally, he won a round of applause, and no one opposed it.

Thus, the Immortal Sect Cultivators of the Nine Provinces, led by those who had been to Youdu before, flew swiftly towards the heart of Youdu, where the core array was located.

Youdu’s ice glacier was vast, endlessly white and indistinct.

According to the records, this glacier spanned three thousand miles in ancient times, comparable to half the territory of the Nine Provinces.

But now, with the leakage of the array’s restrictions in Youdu and the massive outpouring of cold air, the nearby sea areas were turning into ice plains, and the expansion continued unabated.

At this moment, no one could say for certain how vast the glacier of Youdu was.

However, once the cultivators of the Nine Provinces had quickly traveled two thousand miles, they arrived near the heart of Youdu and had a rough estimate that the current glacier must be at least ten thousand miles wide.

Fortunately for the cultivators, even those who had yet to Gather One Qi, had physical abilities far beyond those of ordinary people, thanks to the support of their magic power.

Even the top experts in Jianghu would be inferior in comparison.

So, a mere two thousand miles, which took just three days, was traversed by the cultivators.

And among the group, even the cultivators with the lowest magic power still had some strength to spare and had not used up too much magic power.

Although they arrived at the heart of Youdu without trouble, some of the more compassionate cultivators couldn’t help but worry about the beings of the Nine Provinces as they passed through the ice plains on their way.

The cold air had only been leaked for ten years so far, and while the array’s restrictions in Youdu were still in effect, the glacier had already expanded nearly ten thousand miles.

It was hard to imagine what the expansion of the glacier would look like if they activated the array, depleting the last bit of active spiritual energy between Heaven and Earth and causing Youdu’s array to lose its function completely, leaving all the cold air to pour out unhindered.

I fear that in ten to twenty years, the Sea of Northern Dark will turn into a glacier, Youdu will expand southward, connecting with the plains of the North Territory, the Mysterious Snow Forest, and the Western Gobi,

And Yan, Ji, and Xu, the three provinces adjacent to these regions, perhaps won’t need ten to twenty years after the ice overcomes the northern territories to succumb themselves.

The estimations that the cultivators of the Nine Provinces and Lu Yuan had made about Youdu’s array and this cold wave had ultimately fallen short.

The time left for the nations of the Nine Provinces, especially those in the northern lands, was not the hundred years they had imagined, but merely sixty or seventy years.

And now, because the cultivators of the Nine Provinces were activating the array, depleting Youdu’s last bit of energy, this timeframe would be even shorter.

In the end, there might only be forty to fifty years before the entire northern lands were engulfed by the cold tide.

However, these hardships facing the nations and beings of the Nine Provinces were naturally not a consideration for the cultivators on Youdu’s ice glacier who were about to ascend to the Immortal Realm and become “Immortals.”

Perhaps some thought of these consequences, but faced with ascending to longevity, no one would trade their path to the Great Dao and life for a mere ten to twenty years of preparation for those mortals.

People are all selfish, and cultivators even more so.

Therefore, upon reaching the core of Youdu and seeing the gigantic formation that flashed with a ghostly blue spiritual light and emitted a vast aura, covering more than a hundred miles of the valley,

All the cultivators from the Nine Provinces had their gaze fixed on it, unable to move away for a long time.

“The Array of Ascension is upon us, Fellow Daoists.

Time is of the essence, and we cannot delay.

Let us start the array immediately,” one of them said.

“`

A moment later, it was Mu Yun True Person who first came back to his senses and made a suggestion.

“Good!”

“What Mu Yun Fellow Daoist said makes perfect sense.”

“Let us immediately start the formation method.”

After Mu Yun’s proposal was spoken, other Immortal Sect Lords, including Mo Li and Zhen Xuan, also spoke out in agreement.

Now that they had reached this point, ascension was imminent, and no one would choose to back down.

Either ascend or die.

Therefore, even though there were still doubts and concerns about ascension in everyone’s hearts, they would not give up on this path.

Those who were truly afraid, like Lu Yuan at this time, were all shrinking within the Nine Provinces, enjoying their wealth and honor.

Those who were present here were all cultivators with firm Dao hearts.

“Then, let’s begin according to the original plan!”

Seeing no objections from the crowd, Mu Yun True Person, along with the other Dao masters, took their positions at several key points of the Array’s core, while the other cultivators entered the center of the formation.

Following Mu Yun True Person’s command “Activate!”, they all pinched their magic seals and poured all their magic power into the Array.

“Hum!”

Within the valley, it seemed as if the Earth itself emitted a hum before starting to tremble violently.

The magic power of the cultivators from the Nine Provinces was like a key, reawakening the Array that had been silent for over a hundred years and revealing its might once again.

As the Array began to operate, an immense amount of Spiritual Energy from between Heaven and Earth, following the predetermined course, was drawn from all sides and various locations within the Nine Provinces.

Countless streams of Spiritual Energy converged, swarming into the Array.

Lying in this ocean of Spiritual Energy, the cultivators were like fish that had been thirsting on land and were now returning to the sea, with every cell in their bodies cheering in celebration.

Excitement flushed everyone’s face.

In this unprecedented abundance of Spiritual Energy, their doubts about whether they could ascend to the Immortal Realm disappeared, replaced by longing.

Only in the Immortal Realm could there be such a vast amount of Spiritual Energy.

Spiritual Energy that one could freely and wilfully absorb.

Jianghu cultivators who had been enduring bitter days, facing this infinite Spiritual Energy, many couldn’t help but shed tears.

Luckily, the duration of the Array’s drawing of Spiritual Energy did not last too long.

After a short while, after nearly ninety-nine percent of the external Spiritual Energy was drawn, the Northern Dark City Array finally accumulated enough Spiritual Energy.

Boom!

A pillar of light shot up from the Array, instantly piercing the sky, and an immense spiritual pressure emerged.

The cultivators from the Nine Provinces hadn’t even had time to react when their figures disappeared between Heaven and Earth amidst the sky-illuminating spiritual light.

After more than ten breaths time, as the last bit of Spiritual Power was exhausted, the sky-reaching pillar of light slowly crumbled and dissipated, eventually becoming nothingness.

The Array in the valley, due to the depletion of Spiritual Energy, completely lost its energy.

The flickering spiritual light on the Instrument Tracks faded one by one, and the spiritual pressure enveloping the Valley disintegrated as well.

And after the spiritual pressure disappeared, with nothing left to suppress them, countless frigid airs transformed into howling gales and blew out of the Array toward the outside of the Valley.

Wherever they passed, they were met with ice and snow.

A cold tide had truly descended upon the Nine Provinces.

This time, it was endless.
