Chapter 1189 A Breakthrough! ”DAMMIT!” The three immortal ascension realm experts of the Northern Tribes cursed out in unison.
They had felt their elders dying at once and knew that something must have changed once again.
They were relatively fine with the lower leveled soldiers dying and even if Dao Shell realm experts died, they could bear it with a pained heart. But Dao Treading realm experts were not the same.
They took at least a thousand years of nurturing and a lot of resources to raise. The current numbers they had were secretly grown under the combined effort of the three immortal Ascension realm experts.
But that wasn’t all. Even with Immortal Ascension realm cultivators guiding the juniors, a Dao Treading realm expert was still too difficult to be created.
Especially when they wanted a ‘true’ Dao Treading realm expert and not a mere pupped like the ones Gu Yao had made.
After all, in order to breakthrough to the Dao Treading realm, one needed to grasp a part of the Dao Traces and give birth to their Dao Embryo. Reaching the Dao Shell could be done by simply pouring in enough resources, but comprehending the Dao could only be done individually.
The method that the Northern Tribes used to nurture was none other than the Ancestral Bell!
It could be said that the Ancestral Bell was their lifeline for everything. The bell was how they gained access to the higher worlds and traded for resources. The Ancestral bell could also impart a certain understanding of the Dao due to the many patterns carved into it.
Each of the patterns carved into it weren’t just for formations, they were also the representation of Dao Traces.
And with how many patterns there were on the bell, it was easy to tell that it was no simple Immortal Tool.
It was a mystery as to how the Northern Tribes even managed to get the Ancestral Bell at all.
”Master Bell Mountain, we can’t let this go on anymore. We have to stop them at all costs.” Master Cull Mountain communicated with a jade slip.
”I can stop the Centennial Sword Ancestor for a short time, and assist you in holding back Jing Wei. But you need to act in that time.” Master White Mountain spoke.
He was the only one who was facing a single opponent right now, thus was in the best condition compared to the rest. Master Cull Mountain and Master Bell Mountain were both being held back by two foes each.
”ALRIGHT!” Master Bell Mountain replied, as he gathered his strength.
~WHOOSH~
~CRACKLE~
And just as he did that, a bone chilling wind blew from the other side of the battlefield.
Master White Mountain’s eyes turned bloodshot as he conjured his Dao Shell.
~SHUA~
The Centennial Sword Ancestor narrowed his eyes and retreated some distance after slashing out a few times.
~DENG~ DENG~ DENG~
But this time, his slashes were stopped by the chilly winds that blew from Master White Mountain and were dispelled into stray Qi.
”HAAA!” Master White Mountain let out a cry as he released the power of his Dao Embryo.
”Absolute Whiteout Domain!” he chanted as the Dao Embryo within his Dao Shell lit up.
The Dao Embryo that Master White Mountain had was shaped like a snowflake and looked to be fragile, but it emitted a bone chilling energy that made one feel like they would freeze just by looking at it.
The snowflake like Dao Embryo shone in a bright light as pure energy of the Dao traces rose. A Dao Skill was executed by an Immortal Ascension realm expert and its power was earth shaking.
The entire area around him froze solid and even the Centennial Sword Ancestor was frozen solid in the ice. He was stuck in the pose of slashing and looked like an immaculate sculpture.
”NOW!” Master White Mountain shouted.
~DENG~
Master Bell Mountain commanded the Ancestral Bell and a black pattern lit up on it. The pattern looked like a strange beast that had the head of a dog and the body of a crab.
”Fields Of Decimation!” Master Bell Mountain used a skill he had not used until now.
”Careful!” The Sky Precepts Ancestor warned Jing Wei as the dark energy rushed towards them.
The Profundity Carving Shield could still block the effects for the ancestor, but the same was not for Jing Wei.
~WHOOSH~
Not to mention, the icy winds of the Absolute Whiteout Domain had already reached them and were already slowing them down.
The Sky Precepts Ancestor controlled the Profoundity Carving Shield and protected the allies below, but couldn’t do the same for Jing Wei.
The dark energy combined with the chilly winds swept the area in the blink of an eye, making it look like a dense haze had descended.
”Jing Wei!” The Sky Precepts ancestor called out anxiously.
For a few seconds, no sound was heard and a pin drop silence descended.
~DING~
Then all of a sudden a sonorous hum was heard.
A small dot of light appeared in the haze, which quickly expanded and turned into a star!
~SHUA~
But that was not all as strong spirit Qi waves also came after that, which stunned both the Sky Precepts Ancestor and Master Bell Mountain.
”Impossible!” Master Bell Mountain said in disbelief. “Immortal Ascension Realm?!”
~Shing~
A flash of a blade flickered before appearing right next to the Ancestral Bell.
~CLANG~
~BOOM~
The Ancestral Bell was knocked back, and even Master Bell Mountain was forced to retreat.
The Sky Precepts Ancestor looked at the old man who had reappeared.
A large Dao Shell floated above his head and a Dao Embryo that looked like a hammer floated in it.
”You… You reached the Immortal Ascension realm?” The Sky Precepts Ancestor asked, feeling shocked.
”Haha! I’ve been waiting for this moment! I knew I needed the right battle to comprehend it! But now I know!” Jing Wei laughed out loud.
”Now I know what I shall name you! From now on, you shall be called the Ever-reaching Blade!” he declared as he gazed at the Immortal Sword in his hand.
