To be honest, during the time waiting in the Treasure Bottle, everyone had lost hope.
Breaking into the poison mist was entirely a situation of certain death.
Now being truly rescued, one can well imagine the surprise.
Bi Chang, Gui Cang Sword Saint, Golden Dragon King, Void Abyss Demon Saint, and others all came forward to express their gratitude.
Especially when they learned that Jiang Cheng had deliberately ascended first and then opened the Treasure Bottle to bring everyone up together, many were moved to tears.
"Truly a painstaking effort."
"We owe our survival to Sect Leader Jiang turning the tide!"
"Such grace as giving a second life is not an exaggeration!"
"Indeed, not only saving us but also bringing us to the Immortal Realm."
"Many thanks to Sect Leader Jiang!"
All cultivators present bowed deeply; this gratitude came from the heart.
Even those with evil dispositions were no exception.
They could not deny this favor since the previous goal of cultivation was entering the Immortal Realm, which Brother Cheng helped them achieve sooner.
Not a single sound of alert.
Brother Cheng scornfully pursed his lips.
Just as he was about to say something, the sky darkened again.
Then, purple lightning appeared again within the thick clouds.
What the heck is going on?
"Ahem, this old man is about to cross the tribulation."
Gui Cang Sword Saint awkwardly flew into the sky.
Although he entered the Immortal Realm, he has yet to possess an immortal body.
The process of crossing the tribulation to become a True Immortal will still occur.
He also dislikes crossing the tribulation at this time, primarily due to the great commotion it would cause, given that he is unfamiliar with the surrounding environment.
But there was no choice; he had been a half-step away from becoming an immortal for a long time.
Upon entering the Immortal Realm, the stimulation from the Immortal Yuan Qi and Immortal Realm Rules was unstoppable.
Not only him, but Bi Chang, Void Abyss Demon Saint, Golden Dragon King, and over thirty Peak of Saint Tier cultivators were too perfect in their realm to suppress their steps towards immortality.
All faced the tribulation clouds.
"Quickly scatter!"
"Don't crowd too close!"
"That's right, if you're too close, the Tribulation Thunder will be magnified!"
The thirty-some Peak Saint Tier in the sky naturally understood this principle, and now all dispersed.
When the Tribulation Thunder descended, more than ten Peak of Saint Tier experts below flew off.
"No good, I can't suppress it either!"
"Quickly move aside, I'm about to cross the tribulation too!"
Not just them but dozens of Peak of Saint Tier experts were struggling to suppress it.
They didn't want to cross the tribulation simultaneously.
But there was no choice; many had been suppressed for eight million, even nearly ten million years.
Their accumulation was too profound.
Brother Cheng was rather speechless, could you respect the sacred and glorious life event of becoming an immortal, instead of behaving as if waiting in line for the restroom?
After a long half-day, the continuous tribulation finally gradually dispersed.
Looking again, among the 120,000 people, 235 had become immortals.
Though all became True Immortals, it still set several records.
In one day, 235 people together became immortals; even in the Immortal Realm, such splendor does not exist.
Moreover, 235 people successfully crossed the tribulation, none failing, and they all possessed immortal bodies.
There was no choice; previously, even late-stage Saint Tier could attract Thunder Tribulation.
Due to the ascension rules being interrupted for ten million years, they had forcibly accumulated to the limit of the Saint Tier, a realm that had not existed before.
Their foundation and accumulation were too profound.
However, as the crossing tribulation location was within the Immortal Realm, upon crossing, these people did not randomly appear across the Immortal Realm but remained in place.
Before the crowd could celebrate, outsiders appeared above.
"Where do you come from?"
Such a vast number of people crossing the tribulation naturally attracted the attention of native inhabitants of the Immortal Realm.
Thousands of immortals appeared in the sky, making everyone tense.
Now they know the Upper Realm's attitude towards ascenders; if their identities were exposed, they might become public enemies of the Immortal Realm.
In such a scenario, even an Immortal Emperor might be drawn here.
What they most desired now was to swiftly integrate into the vast sea of the Immortal Realm, escaping noticeable attention.
Then cultivate step by step upwards.
Gui Cang Sword Saint and Void Abyss Demon Saint quickly transmitted their voices to Brother Cheng.
"Sect Leader Jiang, the opponent is strong; do not act impulsively!"
"Among them, there are 105 whose auras are far above ours, likely Celestial Immortals; such a lineup cannot be resisted."
As they transmitted, a middle-aged man with a silver helmet stepped out from the immortals above.
His aura was as deep as an abyss, clearly above the over a hundred Celestial Immortals.
With dozens of guards around him, he slowly spoke.
"What were you just doing?"
"Who is crossing the tribulation? Has my city granted permission?"
The crowd stared at each other.
What?
Crossing a tribulation requires permission?
What business is it of yours if we cross a tribulation?
Mo Chen, that Immortal Realm veteran, immediately stepped forward.
"We come from Milo Celestial Realm and were unexpectedly transmitted here due to a sudden whirlwind storm."
"Newly arrived, much disturbance has been caused; we hope you will forgive us."
"We will immediately withdraw from here, not causing any trouble for you."
Mo Chen's words left Gui Cang, Void Abyss, and other veterans surprised.
How did this person beside Sect Leader Jiang know the names of Immortal Realm regions?
However, his reaction won their secret nods.
Well spoken, with a low profile, appearing harmless and giving plenty of face.
Unless exceedingly troublesome, they should easily resolve this mishap.
However, the Profound Immortal leader seemed less accommodating.
"Milo Celestial Realm?"
"Why has this City Lord never heard of it?"
He scrutinized the crowd.
His gaze lingered on over two hundred True Immortals, with an unclear expression.
The two experts from Earth Divination Domain quickly transmitted their voices: "It's bad; his gaze contains greed, surely not a good person!"
"This old man divined and found unclear fortunes ahead, with impending bloodshed disaster!"
Void Abyss frowned: "We're merely True Immortals, our items merely Lower Realm possessions; what could he covet?"
Then that Profound Immortal City Lord waved his hand, and behind him, the thousands of immortals rapidly spread out, indeed encircling everyone.
Everyone's hearts sank.
"Doomed..."
"If a fight breaks out, we can't resist..."
"Could it be that just upon arriving in the Immortal Realm, we will perish here?"
Then the City Lord coldly spoke: "This City Lord cares not where you come from, now you are within my Dingtian City's territory!"
"Celestial Palace commands: during the Immortal City Ascension Battle, surrounding hundreds of miles of cultivators must comply unconditionally!"
"From now on, all of you are conscripted into my Dingtian City's Immortal Martial Army fourth battalion!"
"If you disobey, you will be killed on the spot!"
This speech left everyone confused.
What Immortal City Ascension Battle?
They had already ascended to the Immortal Realm, why ascension again?
Moreover, does the Immortal Realm engage in warfare?
What is this Immortal Martial Army fourth battalion, resembling the Mortal World?
