Suddenly, a cultivator from the Li Family flew out of the Upper Realm fragment, shouting, "The world within this mass of rosy clouds is actually a Void Great Realm, the Harmonization Land of the venerable ancestors!"

More cultivators from the Li Family flew out, surveying the surroundings with utter astonishment.

At that moment, someone made a discovery and shouted, "There's a Boundary Stele here!"

The Li Family Patriarch flew over eagerly, only to see a stele ahead, standing a zhang tall, beneath which lay a giant deceased Ba Xia, with only the shell remaining.

The stele was quite peculiar. When approached, it grew ever taller, reaching the height of the heavens, blocking their view and path. But when they moved back, it returned to its original height, just one zhang high.

Some words were inscribed on the stele, written in Divine Language, resembling bird seal script. Each character was in the form of a talisman.

Among the Li Family, few were well-versed in this, and even if they recognized some, they couldn't make out the whole.

With just a glance, Chen Shi recognized the content engraved on the stele.

"Here ascended Jue Yangzi, leaving this stele as a memorial."

His heart shook with awe. From what era was Jue Yangzi? How did he manage to ascend?

The Li Family Patriarch, proficient in talisman arts, also discerned the content of the stele and exclaimed in amazement, "This is the Ascension Land of Jue Yangzi!"

He looked up to the sky, seeing a wisp of immortal aura descending, forming a cloud at the peak of the highest mountain.

The rosy clouds there were dazzling and radiant.

"The aura of the Immortal Realm!"

The Li Family Patriarch laughed heartily, "When Elder Jue Yangzi ascended, he opened a passage to the Immortal Realm, allowing traces of Immortal Energy to fall here. No wonder there's no Evil Qi! The Evil Qi has been transformed by the Immortal Energy!"

He flew forward, and the stele before him grew larger, obstructing his path.

"A petty trick!"

The Li Family Patriarch snorted, elevating his aura to the extreme, pressing forward, and astonishingly, the stele began to shrink!

The Li Family Patriarch raised his hand, and all the Li Family cultivators involuntarily flew up, landing in the fragments of the Upper Realm behind his head, then flew toward the cloud at the highest peak.

As they drew closer, the Immortal Energy contained within the cloud grew denser, and just inhaling a breath greatly enhanced one's cultivation!

"Someone truly ascended! Truly ascended!" Chen Shi murmured.

Yet doubt lingered in his heart; the words on the stele were clearly talismanic divine script from the True King Era, not the script from the Great Shang Period. The True King Era was known for severe Evil Qi, which is why the True King enacted new laws over the old.

So how did Jue Yangzi from the True King Era achieve ascension?

Finally, the Li Family Patriarch reached the highest peak, where the Immortal Energy was cascading down. Following the source of the Immortal Energy, another world seemed faintly visible.

"Jue Yangzi ascended here!" The Li Family Patriarch could not hide his excitement.

He looked towards the cloud and suddenly froze, seeing lying within the cloud mist, a skeletal body, its chest pierced through by a sword-like light!

Everyone was dumbfounded by this sight.

The Li Family Patriarch looked up at the sky, then at the corpse within the cloud mist, bewilderment filling his eyes.

Did Jue Yangzi truly ascend?

Whose skeleton was this?

Where did the sword light piercing the chest of the skeleton come from?

Someone traced the sword light's path, seeing that it led to the place where the Immortal Energy descended.

A thought emerged in Chen Shi's mind.

"Jue Yangzi, upon attempting ascension, was pierced by a sword light from the Immortal Realm and perished here. But why?"

At this moment, a Ghost God from the Li Family flew out from the Upper Realm fragment, attempting to pull out the sword light lodged in the bones, saying, "This is an Immortal Bone; it could be taken back for treasure refining."

As soon as his hand touched the sword light, suddenly, like dust, it scattered into countless points of light, vanishing into the air.

The skeletal body on the ground twitched a finger.

Chen Shi's gaze remained fixed on the skeleton. Seeing this, without hesitation, he pulled Liu Qinghong along, flipping the young woman into a wooden cart, shouting, "Black Pot, retreat swiftly!"
