Transmigration After Becoming Love Saint

Chapter 809 - 257: The Grand Immortal Ascension Ceremony and the Deadly Tribulation of Love

Wang Mu extended his palm, dots of dark light emanating from within his skin.

Since cultivating the Infinite Demon Body, Wang Mu had never used this body to absorb the heavens and earth to nourish himself. Although it is a major characteristic of this body, akin to a parallel path with the Heavenly Demons, once done, who knows if a grand tribulation would descend during the Crossing Tribulation.

With the current transaction with Qian Mo, both parties exchanging karma, there would be no issue of karmic repercussions.

This is currently the fastest way to resolve his own predicament.

If missed, Wang Mu didn’t know how long he would have to wait. Considering the emotional tribulation mentioned by the Moon God being somewhat troublesome, he still needed to find a temporary way to enhance his power.

This method might be risky, full of unknowns, but it is worth trying.

"Your body..." Qian Mo’s sword-like brows moved, a hint of concern in his eyes.

"I’m about to start now." A kind of black halo continuously permeated Wang Mu.

Once the Demon Body was activated, without the suppression of a Buddha Heart, it was easy for one’s Primordial Spirit to lose control.

Fortunately, what he cultivated now was the orthodox Heavenly Demon Secret Technique, and he had the Heavenly Demon Bloodline, so even without cultivating a Buddha Heart, the Infinite Demon Body could be used freely.

In this regard, gratitude was due to Piao Miaoxu...

Qian Mo slightly nodded.

The next moment, Wang Mu stood up, transforming into a mass of black cloud, instantly enveloping Qian Mo.

Qian Mo’s body began to emit a rainbow-like radiance. The Immortal Essence spilling out did not belong to this world’s Life Energy, a mere drop could make dry wood bloom and desert forest thrive. Yet now, it was completely engulfed by the black cloud, without missing a trace.

The rapidly flowing Immortal Essence left Qian Mo with a sense of unease.

This Dongfang Mu, in the Upper Realm, was a particularly mysterious existence.

The reason for the mystery was simple; the Flame Virtue Star Palace governed the Celestial Divine Flame, and Karmic Fire could incinerate all worldly karma.

Absorbing the vast karma from the Karmic Fire flows into the Reincarnation Sea, cleansing the souls entering reincarnation and transforming their next life’s Reincarnation Karma, forming a cycle. Thus, in the Flame Virtue Star Palace, there exists the Rebirth Book concerning earthly karma, which can be tallied with the Underworld.

At the same time, in the Upper Realm, while wielding Thunder Punishment, this book is also used.

Many who ascend from the Lower Realm face Heavenly Tribulations corresponding in strength to the karma recorded in this Rebirth Book.

The Patrol Thunder Star Palace, in charge of Thunder Punishment, would also use the karma in this book to convey signals to the Heaven’s Path in the Lower Realm, which would deliver Heavenly Tribulations of varying strengths based on the magnitude of karma of living beings.

This is the origin of the strength of Heavenly Tribulations faced by cultivators when ascending from the Lower Realm.

However, as an Immortal official of the Flame Virtue Star Palace, a position not too high nor too low, there is a chance to look at this Rebirth Book.

In the Immortal Dynasty for many years, Qian Mo remembered this clearly.

There were a few special existences completely absent from the records of the Rebirth Book.

But in the establishment of the Immortal Dynasty, the Rebirth Book after countless years of documentation recorded all life in the Lower Realm.

Only a few were not recorded.

One of them is the Lower Realm’s saint, Dongfang Mu.

Some Immortals say, without Dongfang Mu, the barriers between the Upper and Lower Realms wouldn’t be broken, the Immortal Dynasty wouldn’t have the chance to come to the Upper Realm; his merit and fortune are immeasurable, it’s normal for him not to be among the Five Elements.

Others say, this person might have been an Immortal from the Ancient Era, born with a mission, and now that the two realms are connected, he should have perished, becoming dust in the universe. Moreover, when the connection was made, the Upper Realm had already declined, with no rules, no concept of merit, so he died cleanly; otherwise, the Rebirth Book as an Innate Divine Artifact couldn’t have failed to record a Lower Realm cultivator...

...

Even in the Immortal Dynasty, there was a period of speculation about this person, but unfortunately, there was never a conclusion.

Yet, his special status remains.

After all, the Immortal Dynasty was established slowly after the Li Dynasty collectively ascended from the Lower Realm.

But if not for Dongfang Mu breaking the barrier between the realms back then, the Immortal Dynasty might not have been established.

Various memories, along with his Immortal Essence, flowed reluctantly.

Who knows how much time passed.

His appearance gradually aged.

In fact, his Immortal Essence was less than he claimed.

But for a Lower Realm cultivator, a trace of Immortal Essence’s Life Energy is unimaginable.

Sneaking into the Lower Realm, being oppressed by the Heaven’s Path, causes a loss of Immortal Essence.

A millennium, how could there be so much?

If there were a millennium of Immortal Essence, he wouldn’t need to sneak, he could just slowly plan.

But even if not that much, it’s enough to serve as a supplement for him.

"Dongfang Mu..."

He said the name twice.

In the Upper Realm’s numerous murmurs, the vanished Lower Realm manifested.

In a past world devoid of Spiritual Energy, opening a passage between two realms, a mortal couldn’t bear such might.

Yet now he’s revived.

Of course, whether true or not, he isn’t sure.

Regarding this person, he has no way to verify.

He can only hope that the other party fulfills their promise.

In the Upper Realm, Immortals highly value lineage inheritance.

The stronger the Immortal, the more they desire to leave descendants, as this not only inheres their Immortal career but also secures a piece of Immortal land in the Upper Realm.

Without descendants...

No matter how strong, once fallen, luck permits the soul’s reincarnation, bad luck leaves nothing.

Cultivators in the Lower Realm pursue the Immortal Path; Immortals in the Upper Realm pursue lineage.

He halted his thoughts as his face showed light aging.

Days and nights alternated, dew turning to mist, in a blink of an eye, who knows how long it had been.

The black mist enveloping him gradually dissipated, resuming the appearance of Wang Mu.
