She believed that even her family would support her. At this moment, it wasn't just Ji Biyue who had such a thought.

The word "Fairy" alone could crush eons.

For cultivators in the Covering The Sky World, this was an irresistible temptation.

The Saint Masters of the great Holy Lands, the leaders of the World Houses, and other powerhouses even felt an impulse to sacrifice themselves.

They knew, of course, that not just anyone was eligible.

Aside from the Desolate Beasts on the altar, there were only four exceedingly beautiful women.

They speculated in their hearts that the first requirement must at least be purity; as for the other conditions, they were unclear for the moment.

However, even with standards like Yan Ruyu and Yao Xi, these World Houses and Holy Lands could find peerless young women who could match them.

At this moment, countless people were stirred.

It wasn't just them; even the Forbidden Zone Venerable Ancient Emperors were tempted.

A sigh resonated in the hearts of countless powerhouses. With such a temptation, it will no longer be possible for these World Houses or Holy Lands to band together against the Hongmeng Divine Sect. They might even fight each other over the sacrificial spots.

BOOM!

Just as countless cultivators were shocked and amazed by the miracles produced by the sacrifice, the heavens above underwent a transformation.

An endless divine glow burst forth, like a great sun slowly rising, or like the Milky Way pouring down, tearing apart the entire sky.

Is that the Immortal Realm behind it?

All the Forbidden Zone Venerable Ancient Emperors were excited at this moment. Their eyes blazed like two beams of golden light, piercing toward the heavens as they stared intently at the torn firmament.

Under their gaze, a magnificent world, difficult to describe with words, manifested—vast and boundless.

In that world, there was an extreme abundance of immortal substances, endless divine radiance dancing in the sky, and supreme Divine Trees merging with the Heavenly Earth Path...

Divine Beasts nibbled on immortal medicines and spirit medicines, greedily drinking the Water of Life...

Seeing this scene, whether ordinary cultivators or Forbidden Zone Venerable Ancient Emperors, their eyes turned red, and their breathing quickened!

"The Immortal Realm! This is the legendary Immortal Realm!"

"I have finally seen the Immortal Realm!"

Countless Forbidden Zone Venerables went mad, tears streaming down their aged faces. However, recalling that unbeatable, terrifying existence, they forcefully suppressed the urge to rush forward.

They knew that in front of that terrifying existence, they would certainly perish if they rushed forward.

Of course, they were waiting.

They knew that someone would definitely be unable to resist rushing forward. If that terrifying existence didn't stop them, that would be their chance to rush toward the Immortal Realm.

"The Immortal Realm has appeared!"

"This is the Path of Ascension recorded by our ancestors that has opened!"

"Entering the Immortal Realm grants eternal life!"

At that instant, various places within the Big Dipper Domain began to shine.

This was Holy Light.

Countless Ancient Saints, Sage Kings, and even Great Saints frantically rushed toward the 'Immortal Realm,' crossing galaxy after galaxy. Yet, in the eyes of others, they were merely treading air, making no progress.

Within reach, yet worlds apart—insurmountable! a Forbidden Zone Venerable Ancient Emperor sighed inwardly, watching those Saints and Great Saints frantically trying to advance yet remaining in place.

They knew that even if they rushed forward, the outcome would be no different. In front of that terrifying existence, they were no different from ordinary people.

Just then, a Nine-colored Giant Python flew out from that 'Immortal Realm' world. In an instant, it arrived in the Big Dipper Domain, above the altar in the Eastern Wilderness Region's Southern Region.

The terrifying pressure caused all the powerhouses rushing toward the 'Immortal Realm' to plummet from the sky like dumplings.

So powerful!

Each of the Forbidden Zone Venerable Ancient Emperors felt a tremor in their spirits upon seeing the Nine-colored Heaven-swallowing Python Medusa. They felt as if a single gaze from her could annihilate them. Is this what a powerhouse from the Immortal Realm looks like? Truly terrifying!

Under their gaze, the Nine-colored Heaven-swallowing Python landed above the altar, transforming into an exceptionally alluring woman in a purple robe.

"We respectfully welcome the descent of our God."

Medusa knelt on the ground, bowing respectfully in the direction of God's kingdom.

"We respectfully welcome the descent of our God!"

Ye Hei, leading all the followers, bowed reverently.

As their voices fell, Hongmeng's figure manifested in God's kingdom. Of course, this wasn't his true body. His true body was still detoxifying Ji Hongxia!

"Ye Fan has rendered meritorious service in preaching and sacrifice. He shall be rewarded!"

Hongmeng's gaze descended. His majestic voice reverberated through heaven and earth, resonating with the vast Universe Dao as countless Rules interwove in the firmament, forming a Golden Command.

The Golden Command floated down, landing in Medusa's hands.

Medusa received the Golden Command, bowed respectfully to Hongmeng, then rose and looked towards Ye Hei, announcing:

"For Ye Fan's meritorious service in preaching and sacrifice, he is bestowed with one Immortal Scripture and shall achieve Sanctification Major Completion."

An Immortal Scripture? Sanctification Major Completion?

Whether it was the Forbidden Zone Venerable Ancient Emperors or the countless cultivators around, they were all stunned at this moment, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy.

An Immortal Scripture? That was their most fervent desire. And Sanctification Major Completion meant one could contend with an Ancient Great Emperor—a leap to the heavens in a single step!

BOOM!

As Medusa's voice fell, endless divine radiance descended and enveloped Ye Hei. His body began to glow, suffused with flowing light.

His flesh and bones were transforming. Numerous Dao patterns were being branded into his very flesh and bones, and simultaneously, an Immortal Scripture manifested in his mind.

The Dao Sutra.

The Dao Sutra was the reward for Ye Hei's sacrifices, an amplification of the Taoist Sutra he had offered. It was a supreme cultivation technique capable of allowing one to cultivate to the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal level.

Therefore, Hongmeng had divided the Dao Sutra into several volumes. The one bestowed upon Ye Hei was only the first volume, which could lead one to cultivate to the True Immortal Realm.

At this moment, Ye Hei was immersed in the comprehension of countless Rules of the Great Path, but his body continued to transform, his aura constantly rising.

Saint.

Sage King.

Great Saint.

Quasi Emperor.

Finally, he approached the level of a Great Emperor.

This was Sanctification Major Completion.

Sanctification Major Completion was not achieving the Dao; it merely meant possessing combat power that rivaled that of an Ancient Great Emperor.

This is Sanctification Major Completion?

Each of the Venerables found their worldview shaken. It feels like a dream! But when they looked at Yan Ruyu and her three companions, they suddenly felt that Sanctification Major Completion was not so remarkable after all. Any one of them could crush a cultivator in Sanctification Major Completion—even an Ancient Emperor—with a mere flick of a finger. Compared to the advancement of Yan Ruyu and the others, Ye Hei's advancement to Sanctification Major Completion seems rather insignificant.

"Bestow upon Xiong Ba the Divine Skill, Reincarnation Fist. Grant Tushan Rongrong one top-grade Divine Artifact, the Thousand Masks..."

Medusa continued to read.

The blood sacrifices made by Xiong Ba and Tushan Rongrong, consisting of eight Killing Saints and some Holy Soldiers, were also significant contributions.

Of course, Hongmeng's generous rewards were also intended to encourage mutual assistance among the group members, which would accelerate the propagation of the faith.

Other members of the Hongmeng Divine Sect under Ye Hei also received rewards according to their contributions.

However, these weren't written on the Golden Command, so Medusa didn't need to read them out. She simply tossed the Golden Command down.

Endless divine radiance enveloped all the believers.

All believers could receive divine grace.

The amount of divine grace received depended on the contributions each had made.

Ordinary believers typically had illnesses cured, physical defects corrected, their lifespans extended by a few years, or their cultivation levels increased, among other boons.

"Thank you, our God, for your divine grace!"

Ye Hei, having completed his transformation, felt a power within him that seemed capable of shaking the universe. His heart surged with emotion as he caught the Golden Command with both hands and said respectfully.

"Thank you, our God, for your divine grace!"

All followers, having received divine grace to varying extents, were similarly excited, offering their thanks with great emotion.

The surging waves of sound combined into an immense tide, shaking heaven and earth.

In God's kingdom, Hongmeng's figure had already vanished. Medusa looked at Ye Hei and said, "I hope you all continue to strive and do not disappoint our God's high hopes!"

After speaking, Medusa turned and left.

Yan Ruyu and the other Sacrifices followed closely, disappearing into the horizon amidst endless divine light. The sky then returned to its previous state.

Everything felt like a dream.

"For the glory of our God, I would grind my bones to dust and die ten thousand deaths without regret!" Ye Hei declared loudly.

Everyone followed with a mighty shout.

The Forbidden Zone Venerable Ancient Emperors and the powerhouses from numerous World Houses and Holy Lands looked silently at the vibrant Ye Hei, who held the Golden Command, their eyes filled with complex emotions.

But the next moment, within the major forbidden zones, a magnificent and splendorous brilliance suddenly erupted. Light soared skyward, filled with the Qi of Ancient Emperors and Great Emperors, bursting forth.

Amidst thunderous roars, Rules danced, and the earth trembled. Immortal melodies were heard incessantly in the forbidden zones, and various phenomena shocked the Mortal Realm.

One by one, imposing and terrifying figures emerged from the forbidden zones, treading on the Golden Light Path. Each figure seemed to be a Primordial Universe unto itself, each representing a supreme and unparalleled Path.

The Ancient Venerables had appeared.

Each of them carried the majesty of a Great Emperor, as if treading the heavens and the earth underfoot, and descended with a thunderous presence, moving toward Ye Hei.

There were dozens of them.
