♪Chasing wind, I set out afar♪ ♪The road ahead lost, my voice unheard♪ ♪I’ve tasted joy and sorrow♪ ♪Laying low, I plan every move♪ ♪With a mortal heart and lingering ties♪ ♪I’m roaming far and wide♪ ♪A twist of fate in desperate times♪ ♪A bond that outlives the dust of life♪ ♪Still chasing what immortality means♪ ♪Even eternity flashes by in a blink♪ ♪Don’t mock my ordinary life♪ ♪I fight alone as chaos shakes the world♪ ♪Don’t scorn my humble roots♪ ♪Kind at heart, ruthless when I must be♪ ♪Fate stirs with joy and grief beneath♪ ♪I hold the tide between life and death♪ ♪Faith carries me through endless dark♪ ♪And I return with a heart refined♪ ♪Forged by trial, I rise through three realms♪ ♪Reborn in the wheel of fate♪ [The Immortal Ascension] [Adapted from the webnovel, The Immortal Ascension by Wangyu] [serialized in www.qidian.com under China Literature Limited] [Episode 13] [Lushan Hall, Dihuo House] Violet Monkey Blossom. Celestial Essence Fruit. Jade Marrow Mushroom. Being born to a prestigious clan sure is a privilege. While Senior Chen failed to get anything in the Bloody Trial Ground, she nonetheless obtained two Foundation Pills thanks to her family. For those who were born to cultivate, two pills will probably suffice. But knowing my lack of talent, I need more than ten Foundation Pills to even stand a chance. It works! The quality is good too. ♪That day I first saw you…♪ Right. ♪We made a promise to reunite♪ ♪And walked into the unknown♪ ♪But now that we’ve met again…♪ ♪Only silence fills the space as we lock eyes…♪ Let me try two first. ♪With no way to know when we’ll return…♪ These pills are too intense. ♪So be it, I set myself free♪ ♪To be one who stands tall between heaven and earth♪ ♪Never let yourself become a hollow husk of what you once were♪ ♪The ones before once told me♪ ♪There’s still hardship ahead…♪ How long has it been? ♪Even though it mocks loudly♪ ♪We’re just fleeting mortals♪ ♪Time slipped by before we knew…♪ I feel warm. Is it the residual effect from the pills? ♪Into this starry sky♪ ♪Starlight fades into the Milky Way♪ ♪While the mayfly dies in the whirlpool…♪ Again. ♪Playing the fleeting game of life♪ ♪Each step of fate’s game unclear…♪ To build a foundation is to shed your skin, to rearrange your physique, and to condense qi into liquid. ♪Through all the joy and sorrow♪ ♪How do I choose the way…♪ This hurts so much! Yan Ruyan, I invested so much to achieve this. Don’t you let me down now. Elder Liu. My Lord. You came at the right time. His technique works wonders on Yan. He said he could wake Yan up if I promised him one thing. What does he want? He wants Yan to be his wife. No. You cannot trust him, let alone let him marry your daughter. Elder Liu, what do you mean? You brought him here, didn’t you? May we speak privately? I just saw the technique he used to heal Miss Yan. It is an evil art that absorbs others’ power. Not only is it against nature, but it might bring about dire consequences too. Enough. I’ve always respected your advice, but this time, he’s my only choice. My Lord! That man merely saw Young Lady once and decided to marry her. He’s extorting you. I’m sure he wants more out of our clan. Please think twice, My Lord. Elder Liu, do you think I’m sacrificing our clan to save Yan? On the contrary, I’m trying to save our clan’s future. What holds the Seven Sects together is not the disciples or various resources, but the elusive Nascent Soul Stage elders. Everything below the Nascent Soul Stage is as puny as ants. Yan is bestowed with the heavenly spirit root. She is the only one in our clan who can possibly attain the Nascent Soul Stage. She is our only hope to leverage against the Seven Sects. Elder Liu, surely you know about this. If you’ve made up your mind, there’s no need for me to convince you otherwise. But please give me some time to investigate his background with others. Even commoners ask about the groom’s family when they marry their daughters off. Fine. But Yan doesn’t have much time. Make it quick. Understood. Elder Liu. What do you want exactly? This isn’t what we agreed upon. What I want isn’t important. What’s important is how we do it. We had a deal. I put in good words for you in front of Lord Yan and you’ll pay me 1,000 gems. You are so eager, aren’t you? I… I just want to know where my gems are. Relax. The gems are ready. Now that I have the gems, we are even. I’ll leave the Yan Clan Stronghold now. I have nothing to do with what you do here. Wait. Why the hurry? Are you going to snitch me out to the other sects? My Lord, Elder Liu hasn’t returned after he left to meet the target. I fear the worst has happened. I see. You’re dismissed. My Lord, should I… Just go. Come out already. Your reputation precedes you, Lord Yan. As expected of the only Core Formation Stage cultivator of your clan in the last century. Your spirit sense is impressive. Be it treating or betrothing Yan, they are just your pretexts. Tell me your real objective. Lord Yan, do you remember the promise centuries ago? Of course. Were it not for our shared past, do you think I would still keep you alive now? You sure are a sentimental person. In that case, why don’t we continue our shared history so the Yan Clan can return to its rightful master? My father is thirsty for someone powerful like you. You must be joking. My clan has settled down in the Yue Kingdom. We left the Ghost Spirit Sect 300 years ago, and we don’t plan to return. You’re mistaken, Lord Yan. What I mean is the Seven Sects have ruled the Yue Kingdom for long enough. My sect can help you become the future ruler of Yue. When that happens, you won’t have to beg for one spirit herb. Truth be told, the Six Demonic Sects have rallied armies and will attack soon. The Seven Sects will turn into dust. Alas, the Yan Clan Stronghold is located on the border. It will feel the brunt of the invasion. What will become of it? The war hasn’t begun. No one knows who the victor is yet. Isn’t it arrogant of your father to ask me to take his side now? Besides, your father has sired many children. His sister, Hongfen, is still there. Do you truly have a say in regards to your sect’s matters? Lord Yan, this is both my father’s and my wish. Look. An exceptionally rare dark spirit root? Exactly. Your daughter is born with the heavenly spirit root. And I have the dark spirit root. We make the best pair to study the Blood Spirit Spell. And knowing her potential and mine, we’re likely to attain the Nascent Soul Stage, let alone the Core Formation Stage. Imagine this. Your clan will have two Nascent Soul Stage cultivators. You will be stronger than the Seven Sects. Additionally… Additionally, I promise that our child will become the successor of both my sect and your clan. You come up with this plan yourself? I will take over my sect. But I need you as my ally, more so than my father or Aunt Hongfen. I ask for your cooperation. Will you swear a Truedeath Oath with me? [An isolation chamber in Yellow Maple Valley] Han Li. Could it be him? This is the last pill. I have to make this work. By swallowing this golden pill, I shall defy my predestined fate! Oh, no. If I don’t put the extra power within me to use, my body will be overwhelmed. Qingyuan Sword Manual! Did I do it? I’ve also reached Tier 4 of the Qingyuan Sword Manual. Despite my fake spirit root, I’m now in the Foundation Establishment Stage. One Foundation Pill left. Chen Qiaoqian, stop getting distracted. You can’t let your family down again. I can’t stand it anymore. – What’s wrong? – What’s the matter? I’m sick of it. I know. He’s sick of you. Me? What did I do? All you do is stare at the sky in hopes that Xuan’er will appear. Pot calling the kettle black. You keep staring at Senior Liu too. No, I didn’t. What’s so good about dating anyway? You might as well use the time to cultivate. Look over there. It seems our sect has one more… No. Two more Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators. Wonderful! Mentor Xu. I saw a column of light here just now. Did someone reach the Foundation Establishment Stage as well? Han Li did it. Who would have thought? He and his fake spirit root have proved so many people wrong. Where is he now? He just left. You arrived a second too late. He is… You’re just as impatient as he is. Han Li! Han. – Wait. – Senior Chen? Han. Congratulations. You have reached the Foundation Establishment Stage. Likewise. You saved me that day, didn’t you? What do you mean? You killed Senior Lu before the Bloody Trial Ground. Quit joking around, Senior Chen. Senior Lu is an excellent Qi Refining Stage cultivator. I am not strong enough to kill him. But you escaped the dangerous Bloody Trial Ground unscathed. Grandmaster Li even took you in as his disciple. It was just a stroke of luck. I have things to do. Farewell. Why won’t you admit that you saved me? I should have given her more Oblivion Pills. I know it was you even if you don’t admit it. Can you feel it? Do you know I’m performing cupping on your back? It will remove the cold energy and the bad energy from you. All of it. You’re not doing it properly. I don’t think Han Li did this when he was helping me. If you’re this good, do it yourself. If I can do it myself, I won’t ask you for help. Mentor Ma. Mentor Wu. You’ve attained the Foundation Establishment Stage? Not too shabby. You’ve attained the Foundation Establishment Stage. Nice one. It’s all thanks to you, Mentor Ma. I wouldn’t have achieved what I did had you not let me tend to this garden. Then, you should address me differently now. Call me Senior Ma. Now that you’re in the Foundation Establishment Stage, my garden is of no use to you. Pack up and find your master now. Go. Go now. Make haste. ♪The ripples disappear into the river♪ ♪My robe is soaked under the drizzle♪ ♪I drink alone as the moonlight melts with the liquor♪ ♪The current flows swiftly, the mountains weigh heavily…♪ They say you see things differently once you’re in the Foundation Establishment Stage. But all I see are familiar scenes. ♪The breeze brushes through the corridor♪ ♪As the swallows whisper overhead♪ ♪The setting sun graces the bamboo forest, for whom do I harmonize?♪ ♪Leaning against the rails, water ripples below me♪ ♪The wind whispers to the forest♪ ♪I wander into the dream under the clear galaxy…♪ I won’t forget you, Herbs Garden. Just go! ♪This journey that spans across the universe♪ ♪Feels both familiar and unfamiliar♪ ♪Looking at the various faces of our world♪ ♪Each word, each utterance♪ ♪Carries the hopes of a lifetime…♪ Come up. You can’t bring those weary eyes of yours. Present yourself properly. Again. Come up. Greetings, I am Han Li. You’re greeting your master. You have to kneel. Greetings, I am Han Li. All right. Get up. Thanks, Master. As per our tradition, before Master takes you in, I have to give you a test. I am but an average disciple. I ask for your leniency. Relax. It’s just a simple test. If you can understand my flute notes, I consider you passed. Close your eyes. Open your eyes. What did you hear? Silence speaks louder than words. You passed. In the Foundation Establishment Stage, you will be able to sense the power in all beings. It’s as if you have one more sense on top of your five senses. Do not forget this. Thank you, Senior. My turn now. Remove the bird’s ability to fly without hurting it. Then, you’ll pass. How kind of you, Senior. You wanted me to help you free a trapped bird, right? Yes. Since Senior Liu approves of you, I consider you passed. All right. It’s my turn now. Dodge all three of my sand pouches. Then, you’ll pass. Here I go. Good. You passed. Listen up. Cultivation is important. But don’t forget to train your body as well. If you live a long life and don’t move a lot, you’re no different from a tortoise. It’s my turn now. Enough, Wu Xuan. No. He’s better than this. Tier 4? Upon reaching Tier 4 of the Qingyuan Sword Manual, you can guard against blades automatically. The manual states that when attacked, the shield will block any blades. You’ve reached Tier 4 of the manual? Don’t you know you should stop at Tier 3? Did you feel something off when you were cultivating? My progress slows down a lot at Tier 4. After a while, the spirit power I gathered will slowly disappear. It’s the dissipation. Dissipation? Upon reaching Tier 4 of the Qingyuan Sword Manual, your power dissipates every few days. But Master didn’t tell me about this when he taught me. Calm down, Han. At Tier 4, only 1/10 of your power will dissipate. At Tier 5, another 1/10 of your power will dissipate. That’s too much. I trained so hard to reach Tier 4 just for it to backfire on me? It is a flawed but unique technique. I was told that each tier you reached would expand your Meridian system and deepen your energy pool. You will have much more power reserve than your peers. That’s right. Perhaps this is why your power dissipates. Unfortunately, the manual we have is incomplete. The sect only possesses the first nine tiers of the manual. What do I do? Master. Han Li is here. He is? Right away. I’m coming. Give me a moment. Greetings, Master. Forget it. At ease. It’s a hassle. Just get up. As cultivators, we seek simplicity. From now on, you are my disciple. Cultivate diligently from now on. Don’t bring dishonor to my name. Yes, Master. You see, cultivation is a way to defy your destiny. Look at yourself. The Foundation Pill has transformed your body. You no longer possess a mortal body. But to go further, you must train your mind too in order to complete your internal and external transformation. Do enlighten me. Mortals have desires. Therefore, they have obsessions. When you are obsessed, it’ll affect your progress. You’ll hit a bottleneck as it turns into your inner demon. In serious cases, you might lose your progress or your life. Master, do you mean we should forsake our desires? Not at all. See? I knew you would think that way. You’re wrong. Cultivation is about easement. To forsake all desires is to go against the purpose of cultivation. But true easement is hard to achieve. Therefore, I ask my disciples to accept all outcomes with grace. Accept your failures and you make peace with yourself. Make peace with yourself? This is very important. Make peace with yourself. Ask your seniors. I became the top Core Formation Stage cultivator in our sect thanks to this philosophy. Greetings, Grandmaster Hongfu. Hongfu. Well, I meant to say the top male Core Formation Stage cultivator. I need to borrow your master for some quick words. But carry on. I can wait. We’re done. Han Li, you’re now in the Foundation Establishment Stage. You can have your own cavern. Show him where to get the map to the back of the mountain as well as the array for the cavern. Go now. – Yes, Master. – Yes, Master. Hongfu, just some quick words? It could be more. Well, you… Farewell, Master. Go. Farewell, Grandmaster. You’re so long-winded. Just go already. Farewell. That silly kid. Go ahead. The Clear Void Sect brought us some news. Fu Yunzi conducted an investigation for a year. He reported that half of the surviving disciples in the Trial Ground said that Spirit Beast Mountain was fishy. 300 years ago, that sect split from the Beast Taming Sect of the Six Demonic Sects. It’s not a stretch to think that they are consorting with the demonic sects. Remember who suggested that we changed the opening date of the Trial Ground? And who insisted that they knew where the demonic sects were? The Beast Taming Sect. I remember that. You know what? There’s no use speculating. Bring them over and interrogate them. All right. I’ll be leaving, then. You’re leaving? So that’s all. I rehearsed my greetings so many times only for it to end so abruptly. Can I trust this master of mine? He doesn’t look like someone enlightened. Making peace with yourself. What does that even mean? Han, stop ruminating. Making peace with yourself is not something you get by thinking very hard about it. Master was very cryptic about it. Would you care to explain to me? Obsessions can be huge or small. We want different things, so we each have different obsessions. Oh. For Senior Liu, his obsession is to kill all evil perpetrators. Wu Xuan’s obsession is Xuan’er. Weiniang’s obsession is… Shut your mouth. My obsession is to have a real fight with you. Senior Song, you know I can’t defeat you. Work hard then. I’ll be waiting. Han, there’s no need to obsess over it. Making peace with yourself is easier said than done. Look at our master. Grandmaster Hongfu came and was like, “I need to borrow your master for some quick words.” Just some quick words? You silly kid. You’re so long-winded. Just go already. Just go! We’re talking about you. You weren’t aware? If you get easily distracted in your progress, how can you achieve true peace? [Nangong Wan, Early Core Formation Stage] Congratulations, Wan. You have returned to the Core Formation Stage. I’ve nonetheless lost a lot of progress. It’s all that fool’s fault. Who? I was asking if our disciples have been cultivating properly or not. Wan, I’ve had a feeling that something is on your mind after you left the Bloody Trial Ground. Tell me already. What exactly happened there? My name is Han Li. Shoo. Shoo? No. I mean the sun. The sun is bright today. You… Since you care so much about our sect, do tend to those pending tasks accumulated while you were cultivating in solitude. You just returned to the Core Formation Stage. Your mind is still clamoring. We don’t want any inner demon now, do we? Anyway, I was expecting you. Thanks to the Green Vial, I have an abundance of pills. But the dissipation of my power is an issue. They also said I could have my own cavern. How do I do that? Perhaps I should ask Mentor Wu. I’m so pissed. If I don’t get rid of Han Li, I’ll have an inner demon sooner or later. Grandmaster. Yes? Yellow Maple Valley sent us a jade scroll. Cultivator Li Huayuan invites all Core Formation Stage cultivators of the Seven Sects to discuss a strategy. Got it. What strategy? He just wants someone to play mahjong with him. But I do like the food there. All right. This can be my excuse. My senior can’t stop me. And it’s not about the food too. I can use this visit to check if that he told anyone or not. If he did, I’d make him pay. I need to kill him sooner or later. Mentor Wu. Mentor Wu. Just call me Senior Wu. I’m used to it already. You taught me so many things when I first came here. If you hadn’t done that, I wouldn’t have been able to enter the Bloody Trial Ground. Allow me to keep this appellation, Mentor Wu. It doesn’t matter anyway. I saw you studying mugwort therapy in Herbs Garden last time. These two vials can help reduce the foul energy on you. It’s more convenient too. Just let me know if you want to steam some mugwort. Thanks. It’s very considerate of you. Oh. Have you found a place for your cavern? The array we distribute barely suffice. You need to pull some tricks. That said, I can’t help you in this regard. Head to Treasure House to find a spirit beast. A spirit beast? It can help you. Wise choice, Mr. Li. This is a Treasure-Hunting Mouse that reached Grade 2 recently. It can find herbs, steal gems, and even locate a secret realm. Locate a secret realm? How much for it? A lot. I’ll take it. Come. This is a lot. ♪Shards of dreams inside a dream♪ ♪A pale moon falls into mirrored skies♪ ♪Years slipped by as I lingered on♪ ♪Old scenes rise again♪ ♪Too hard to forget♪ ♪Easier just to miss♪ ♪They say the past fades like smoke♪ ♪But looking back still stirs the ache♪ ♪This noisy world, this lonely page♪ ♪Swept away by time♪ ♪Eyes once looked far♪ ♪Now lost in the shift♪ ♪Autumn winds stir♪ ♪Smoke curls once more♪ ♪Like clouds on the edge of sky♪ ♪Returning to my eyes♪ ♪Looking back from the mountaintop♪ ♪Time lost its name♪ ♪Was it yesterday♪ ♪Or tomorrow?♪ ♪The world has changed♪ ♪Beyond recall♪ ♪Time will fade♪ ♪All the words ever spoken♪ ♪Only this longing remains♪ ♪Crossing centuries and days♪ ♪In a fleeting moment we call eternity♪ ♪In a fleeting moment called eternity♪
