Immortality Starts With Diligence(Xianxia Litrpg)

572. Lin Fei Steps into the Interdimensional Passage!

"Your Highness, calling me here must be for more than just this matter, correct? If you have any other concerns, please do share," Lin Fei inquired abruptly. He could discern that the Dao Integration True Immortal had summoned him not solely for this occasion; there must be additional matters at hand.

However, the Dao Integration True Immortal might be harboring some reservations or something else but had yet to articulate them. Upon hearing Lin Fei's words, he took a deep breath and nodded in agreement. "Indeed, True Monarch Lin, I have summoned you not solely for this matter," he began. "It is also because you are returning to the Ancient Continent. I have some matters that I would like to entrust to you."

"Please, Your Highness, go ahead," Lin Fei replied, intrigued. He wondered what kind of request could prompt the Dao Integration True Immortal to use the word "entrust." This piqued his curiosity.

The Dao Integration True Immortal sighed deeply and continued, "On your forthcoming journey back to the Ancient Continent, you are undoubtedly planning to unify the land and conduct the Heaven Sacrificial Ritual, hoping to comprehend the Great Dao, am I correct?"

"Rest assured, True Immortals and Martial Gods of the Ancient Covenant are still united," he assured. "Furthermore, Great Dream Ancestor once owed me a favor, so your affairs will naturally be handled with discretion. You need not worry that anyone will bring you ill fortune while you are in the Ancient Continent.

However, when you are in the process of unifying the Ancient Continent, if you encounter the ancient family known as the Yun Clan, I hope that you will extend them some kindness. Even if the Yun Clan has any requests, as long as they are not overly excessive, I hope that you will consider granting them."

"The Yun Clan?" Lin Fei pondered with a thoughtful expression. Could this Yun Clan be descendants of the Dao Integration True Immortal's bloodline? Nevertheless, it seemed somewhat peculiar. After all, the Dao Integration True Immortal was a distinguished True Immortal who could return to the Ancient Continent at any time. Why would Lin Fei need to take care of the Yun Clan on his behalf?

"True Immortal, I have a question that perplexes me," Lin Fei began. "You should be able to return to the Ancient Continent at any time, correct? If you wish to support the Yun Clan, it would be a simple matter for you to speak on their behalf."

The Dao Integration True Immortal gently shook his head and replied, "Indeed, I can return to the Ancient Continent at any time. However, there is an agreement among the True Immortals and Martial Ancestors of the Ancient Covenant. True Immortals and Martial Ancestors are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Ancient Continent unless it directly concerns them. The Yun Clan, being the descendants of a close friend of mine, does not fall under such a direct concern. Therefore, there are certain matters that I cannot meddle in at will. Otherwise, how could you have not heard of any True Immortals or Martial Ancestors while you were in the Ancient Continent?"

Upon careful consideration, Lin Fei realized the truth in the Dao Integration True Immortal's words. During his time in the Ancient Continent, there were indeed very few Martial Gods, let alone True Immortals. The higher-level beings were kept at bay to protect the Ancient Covenant's interests. Otherwise, how could Lin Fei have achieved his prominence in the Ancient Continent?

"I understand," Lin Fei said respectfully. "Rest assured, True Immortal, I will remember to take good care of the Yun Clan in the Ancient Continent."

"Very well, now you can proceed to the Interdimensional Passage and return to Ancient Continent," the Dao Integration True Immortal instructed. "Remember to make all necessary preparations for any matters, such as bringing any individuals along. Otherwise, the next time you wish to return to the Ancient Continent, it will only be possible once you have achieved the rank of Martial Ancestor."

"Thank you for the reminder, True Immortal," Lin Fei replied with gratitude. He was well aware that he needed to make thorough preparations for his journey back to the Ancient Continent. With that, he took his leave.

Shortly thereafter, Lin Fei departed from the Dao Integration True Immortal's abode and swiftly made his way to the Interdimensional Passage. The Interdimensional Passage was heavily guarded, with True Monarchs stationed along its entire length.

Lin Fei couldn't help but notice the vigilant gazes of the True Monarchs. It was evident that the Ancient Covenant regarded the Ancient Continent as its core foundation, its ancestral land, and they guarded it diligently. Unauthorized entry into Ancient Continent was strictly forbidden, and anyone attempting to sneak in would find themselves on a one-way path to destruction.

"Oh, by the way, what about the Kun?" Lin Fei inquired. "It was quite determined to kill me back then, but it seems to have disappeared recently."

Lin Fei had almost forgotten about the Kun. Since he had arrived in the Divine Realm, he had not encountered it. It appeared that Kun had chosen to keep a low profile.

However, now that Lin Fei was returning to the Ancient Continent, he could only postpone dealing with the Kun and prioritize his return.

"True Monarch Lin, the Dao Integration True Immortal has already informed us," one of the guards said. "You are allowed to enter the Ancient Continent. If you plan to return to the Divine Realm with anyone, it is permissible."

"I understand," Lin Fei nodded. These people were familiar with Lin Fei, and their curious gazes were tinged with a hint of awe. After all, Lin Fei had become a legend in the Ancient Covenant.

Ignoring the subtle scrutiny from the True Monarchs, Lin Fei gazed at the Interdimensional Passage before him without hesitation. In an instant, he stepped into the passage.

...

Mount Ascension, a forbidden area within the Ancient Continent. Many Martial Kings who ventured onto Mount Ascension treaded carefully, as the slightest mistake could spell danger. However, at this moment, Mount Ascension had gathered a multitude of powerful individuals.

The reason was that another Deity Transformation cultivator had just been born today. This Deity Transformation cultivator was following in the footsteps of Martial God Lin Fei, intending to step onto Mount Ascension and enter the Divine Realm.

"I never expected that the Celestial Strategist True Person would actually achieve Deity Transformation," one person commented.

"Our Ancient Continent truly produces outstanding talents. First, we had Martial God Lin Fei, and now we have the Celestial Strategist True Person, both achieving godhood and entering the Divine Realm," another person remarked with excitement.

"Divine Realm, just thinking about it makes me thrilled. However, without achieving godhood, we can never enter the Divine Realm."

"Remember when Martial God Lin Fei overshadowed the entire Ancient Continent? Now, we finally have Qi cultivators who have achieved Deity Transformation and can even enter the Divine Realm."

"Who do you think is superior between Martial God Lin Fei and the Celestial Strategist True Person?"

"It's hard to say. However, the Celestial Strategist True Person has incarnations numbering in the billions, and even Martial God Lin Fei may not be able to kill him. From this perspective, the Celestial Strategist True Person might have the upper hand."

"It's been such a long time. I wonder how Martial God Lin Fei is faring in the Divine Realm. Perhaps he was extraordinary in the Ancient Continent, but in the Divine Realm, he may not amount to much. He might have already been surpassed by others."

Many still remembered Lin Fei, after all, Martial God Lin once swept across the entire Ancient Continent. Many ancient Deity Transformation and Martial God cultivators had temporarily avoided his edge, a testament to Lin Fei's formidable strength.

Many cultivators of the Dao were also left feeling overshadowed by martial prowess. The appearance of the Celestial Strategist True Person had finally allowed Dao cultivators to breathe a sigh of relief, as they could relax slightly.

The Celestial Strategist True Person now stood in the void, looking down at everyone on Mount Ascension, exuding an air of dominance. He had almost reached the pinnacle of the entire Ancient Continent, and like Lin Fei, he was about to enter the Divine Realm.

"Entering the Divine Realm is when true talents are displayed," he said, his gaze sweeping over the crowd. "Lin Fei, a mere Martial God, once dominated the Ancient Continent, but upon entering the Divine Realm, he must have long been overshadowed."

"But I am different," he continued confidently. "Even in the Divine Realm, my talent will shine brightly!"

The Celestial Strategist True Person was quite young and full of pride. After achieving Deity Transformation, he wasted no time in preparing to journey to the Divine Realm. He had no desire to stay in the Ancient Continent, a testament to his ambitious aspirations.

"Now, let us send off the Celestial Strategist True Person!"

Many Nascent Soul cultivators shouted loudly, much to his satisfaction. However, just as he was about to step onto Mount Ascension and enter the Divine Realm, a sudden and intense tremor shook the mountain. Even the Interdimensional Passage within Mount Ascension experienced violent vibrations. Everyone on Mount Ascension, including the Celestial Strategist True Person, looked bewildered, unsure of what had just occurred.
