Chapter 919: Chapter 4: Ascension Well Xinghai, Talent Seizure? (First Update)

In the Heavenly Gate, a vortex suddenly rose, resembling a well, deep and bottomless.

"What... what is this?"

"Look quickly, a well has appeared in the sky!"

The celestial phenomenon caused instant commotion.

The third Heavenly Tribulation, if divine status is fused, one will immediately ascend to the Divine Demon Continent. For countless years, the Divine Tomb has not opened in the Middle Ancient Realm, who could have witnessed a daylight ascension?

"This is the Ascension Well!" the High Priest said excitedly.

Ascension Well?

What Ascension Well! Those who heard the High Priest were completely baffled. Those who didn’t hear him continued to be shocked by the well-eye in the five-colored Heavenly Gate.

In the sky piled with dark clouds, a gigantic five-colored gate shimmered.

It resembled an archway, with only a frame and no door panels.

Five-colored glaze, exquisite and beautiful, white clouds transformed into hundreds of birds and beasts moving around the giant gate. In the gate, a well-eye led to the void, from which a trace of celestial majesty seeped, intimidating everyone on the ground into submission, unable to breathe loudly under this celestial might.

There lies the passage to the Divine Demon Continent, opened exclusively for Mu Qingge.

The Heavenly Gate that fused with divine status glistened with golden light, brilliantly stunning. Tribulation Thunder in the clouds transformed into electric dragons, roaring as they charged toward the Heavenly Gate, seemingly intent on breaking this path to the sky.

Mu Qingge suddenly opened her eyes wide, stood up from the high platform, watching her Heavenly Gate with tension.

This contest with the Heavenly Tribulation, she had no way to intervene. She believed in her Spirit Root and divine status, capable of withstanding this Tribulation Thunder.

Bang——!

Lightning and thunder, the electric dragon slammed fiercely against the Heavenly Gate, causing Mu Qingge’s Heavenly Gate to tremble violently, and the electric dragon shattered into countless currents falling in all directions.

In an instant, the entire Luoxing City was engulfed in lightning, incredibly terrifying.

Those watching outside, intending to send Mu Qingge off, all used their methods to avoid the lightning coming their way. Meanwhile, the city residents who had hidden in their homes could only witness this scene, as if the apocalypse had arrived, through their windows.

Children were scared into tears, and women had no choice but to hold their children tightly.

The tens of thousands of lightning strikes even triggered the protective Big Array of Luoxing City, where a transparent light curtain rose from the ground, connecting to form a dome, protecting the city firmly.

But uniquely, the space beneath the Heavenly Gate, seemingly blocked by the aura of Mu Qingge and the Heavenly Gate, left a circular opening.

Electric light coiled around Mu Qingge’s Heavenly Gate, seemingly trying to destroy it.

Because, the path to the sky is not so easily opened, nor easily entered!

People below maintained the same posture, looking at heaven and earth with tension, feeling anxious for Mu Qingge. Under this celestial might, they did not know if Mu Qingge’s Heavenly Gate could hold out, while also being in awe of the grandeur of Mu Qingge’s ascension scene.

"Surely, she is no ordinary person, so even her ascension is extraordinary?" Yao Xinghai marveled in his heart.

"High Priest, why does this Tribulation Thunder persistently refuse to give up?" Mu Chen asked nervously beside the High Priest.

The High Priest frowned, answering thoughtfully: "It is said that when Tribulation Thunder appears, attacking the Heavenly Gate, it is a form of test. If the test is passed, the path to the sky will solidify, preventing mistakes during ascension and avoiding falling to another place. If it cannot be passed, it will be destroyed, severing the path to the sky. Generally, two Tribulation Thunders are enough, but the Young Master has already endured three. Could it be due to her unique Spirit Root and divine status?"

"What if she fails?" Mu Chen asked, his voice trembling.

The High Priest was silent for a moment and said, "Divine status destroyed, Spirit Root also perished."

Mu Chen’s eyes widened, sucking in a cold breath. The worry in his heart grew heavier. It wasn’t that he lacked faith in Mu Qingge, but the consequences were just too severe.

The High Priest fell silent, his heart also full of worry. His concern came from the divine status fusion. Previously, when performing divine status fusion in the Divine Demon Continent, it was done because people of the Divine Land inherently possessed divine status, using original divine status primarily, fusing others as supplementation, and repairing it to become a new divine status.

However, this time, when he fused divine status for Mu Qingge, he used one as supplementary, adopting a devouring method to fuse the divine status. He feared it was this heaven-defying method that amplified the Tribulation Thunder. If it caused Mu Qingge to fail in ascension, he would be the eternal sinner of the Mu Clan!

But...

The High Priest looked perplexedly at the well-eye within the Heavenly Gate, thinking to himself, ’The Ascension Well has appeared, so there shouldn’t be any problem.’

Unable to figure it out, the High Priest could only wait patiently.

Everyone was worrying for Mu Qingge, but what about her? Many who were nervously staring at the Heavenly Gate also let their gaze wander to the tall, straight figure below it.

She stood with hands behind her back, chin slightly raised, the curve extending her neck, her gaze calm as she looked at the Heavenly Gate, her demeanor indifferent, already without the previous tension. It seemed she was confident in awaiting the retreat of the dark clouds, the disappearance of the Tribulation Thunder.

The electric light on the Heavenly Gate finally gave up its attempt of destruction, gradually fading away.

In the sky, the dark clouds began to thin, lighten, and eventually vanished, returning to a clear sky.

After the lightning baptism, the five-colored Heavenly Gate became even more transparent and focused. The well-eye within it also stabilized further. The mist transformed from clouds into birds and beasts hovering, unwilling to disperse for a long time. The five-colored light from the Heavenly Gate also rendered them into vibrant hues, very beautiful and harmonious.

This scene caused the citizens hiding in the houses of the city to involuntarily step out and gaze at this spectacle.

Suddenly, a beam of golden light spilled from the mouth of the well, striking Mu Qingge.

Wrapped in golden light, Mu Qingge felt her entire body warm and comfortable, as her Spiritual Body’s blood, flesh, and bones, even her Spiritual Power and Spiritual Sense, began to transform.

Suddenly, the High Priest shouted at her, "Young Master, quickly take us away!"

Mu Qingge suddenly awoke, opening her eyes to find herself unknowingly lifted off the ground, heading towards the well in the Heavenly Gate.

Mu Qingge immediately raised her hand and waved, putting all the prepared people into the space.

This Heavenly Gate was opened only for her, the Ascension Well accompanied solely by her, and others couldn’t enter at all. Hiding in her space was considered smuggling, a way to evade the Law of the heavens.

Of course, to do this, you must possess a Heaven-defying Space cheat like Mu Qingge!

As she took the people with her, Mu Qingge had already ascended to the air. She glanced at those seeing her off, smiled, and said to everyone, "Everyone, I will go one step ahead and await your good news in the Divine Land."

This sentence was both a farewell and encouragement.

Those who understood each clenched their fists in response, their eyes resolute.

Mu Qingge then looked at Jing Hai and said to him, "Xiao Hai, I leave Luoxing City to you."

Jing Hai sniffed, his heart choking with emotion, promising Mu Qingge, "Instructor, rest assured, I will certainly protect Luoxing City. If you have time, remember to come back for a visit."

Mu Qingge slightly nodded her head, finally said to everyone, "Take care, all of you!" and was sucked into the mouth of the well.

"Farewell, City Lord—!"

In Luoxing City, the sound of drums and horns echoed; it was the marching drums of the Mu Family Army, inspiring people and boosting morale. At this moment, they were used to see off Mu Qingge.

The city’s citizens knelt down one after another, prostrating on the ground, watching as their City Lord entered that well in the sky.

Mu Qingge eventually vanished within the well’s mouth, and after her disappearance, both the Heavenly Gate and well vanished simultaneously.

The sound of war drums continued, echoing for a long time without cessation.

"Boss..." Mu Xuewu gazed at the place where Mu Qingge disappeared, murmuring, her eyes filled with envy and admiration.

"Ah! Gone. That guy moves too fast; we couldn’t keep up even if we tried!" Ji Yaohua shook his head, full of sentiments.

No one could refute his words.

Because, along this path, Mu Qingge surpassed them all with her strength, ultimately becoming the first of the younger generation in the Middle Ancient Realm to enter the Divine Demon Continent.

Who would have thought that she, barely in her twenties, had already ascended the Divine Land?

Mu Qingge had left, but the legends and stories she left behind would continue to spread throughout the Middle Ancient Realm. And in new places, those who knew her believed that wherever Mu Qingge was, it wouldn’t be lonely—surely vibrant and colorful.

...

’The Ascension Well is the passage to the Divine Land. Originally, on the Four Seas Divine Land, there were four eyes of Ascension Well, but two have already been abandoned, now only two remain. One is among the West Divine Land, East Divine Land, and North Divine Land, while the other is within the South Divine Land realm. From which Ascension Well the Young Master will emerge, I do not know; everything depends on the Young Master’s luck.’ The High Priest’s voice rang in Mu Qingge’s mind.

Mu Qingge’s heart stirred. She was quite unfamiliar with the Divine Demon Continent, even though she had once seen a map of the Divine Demon Continent in the Demon Realm, the depictions on the other side, the Divine Land, were still very vague to her.

And the forces on the Divine Land, she knew even less about, not knowing what kind of world the Four Seas Divine Land was.

’Young Master, the Ascension Well’s exit is all above Xinghai. Xinghai is vast and requires an airship to navigate and determine direction clearly.’ The High Priest reminded again.

Mu Qingge silently noted this in her heart.

Her body kept being sucked into the bottom of the well, as if traversing countless spaces, sweeping past countless starry skies and blazing suns. Among them, because she was enveloped in golden light, she did not feel discomfort; her heart was filled only with curiosity about the unknown.

After an indefinite amount of time, Mu Qingge finally saw a point of light ahead, seeming like an exit.

’Is it here?’ she thought in her heart, then suddenly felt the golden light on her body disappear. Her vision turned white, and her body felt like it was pushed out forcefully by some strength.

Her sight had yet to recover when she heard several noisy voices beside her ear.

"Another one came!"

"What day is it today? So many people are ascending."

"No idea where this one came flying up from, nor what their talents are."

"Regardless, your two Divine Lands have already gained people today; it’s time our West Divine Land took a turn."

"That’s not necessarily the case; it still depends on the newcomer’s choice."
