Chapter 5158: Mo Ze’s Ascension

“Hold your tongue for now. Study this black lotus and Xuanyuan Mo Ze closely.” The elder gestured, directing his gaze to the figure and lotus within the scene.

“Ah, so that’s it.” The other elder nodded in realization. “No wonder I felt something was off when I first saw it. This explains it.”

Seeing both elders now fully grasping the situation, the middle-aged Emperor inquired, “If you know, then speak!”

“Hahahaha…” Amused by his impatience, the two burst into hearty laughter. Stroking their beards and exchanging knowing glances, one finally replied, “Good heavens! At your age, why are you still so impatient?”

The elder chuckled. “Look closely. Doesn’t Xuanyuan Mo Ze and the black lotus appear as one?”

Hearing this, the middle-aged Emperor froze. He stared at the scene, seeing the man and lotus in perfect harmony. Upon closer inspection, it seemed as if the lotus existed within the man, and the man within the lotus. They had reached the realm of human-lotus unity.

“Huh? How did I miss that earlier?” he exclaimed in surprise, finally grasping the meaning behind their earlier words. “The realm of human-lotus unity… It seems Xuanyuan Mo Ze has indeed become the Black Lotus’ Master.”

“Indeed,” the elder nodded. “As its master, the dark energy of this black lotus now serves as a powerful force for him. It seems we must prepare a generous gift to pay our respects when the time comes.”

“The Upper Immortal Realm is about to witness the birth of another mighty Emperor. Truly remarkable!” The other elder chuckled, stroking his beard.

Meanwhile, the Azure Emperor, upon seeing the World Annihilation Black Lotus upon Xuanyuan Mo Ze, paused in surprise. A barely perceptible smile then flickered across his face as he murmured softly, “Truly worthy of Xuanyuan Mo Ze.”

Meanwhile, on the Immortal Island where Feng Jiu resided, she paused upon seeing that he and the black lotus had achieved the state of human-lotus unity. A look of relief washed over her face, followed by a smile of profound relief.

“It seems I needn’t worry anymore.” She had been anxious about what the black lotus might bring him in the future, but now, her concerns proved unnecessary.

Just then, as the most thunderous clap of lightning tribulation echoed, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed. Multicolored rays of light cascaded down from the heavens, and celestial music drifted from within the clouds. Simultaneously, within the rays of light, the Celestial Path slowly opened…

Qi Kang and the others watched the scene with excitement, unable to contain their shouts: “Excellent! Absolutely splendid! Hell’s Lord has finally ascended! Look! The Celestial Path has opened! Just like when our Master ascended!”

The grandeur of the ascension shook the heavens themselves. Naturally, Monarchs from every corner of the Immortal Realm sensed this commotion. They gazed with envy upon the multicolored rays of light and the Celestial Path opening, leading to the Upper Immortal Realm.

This Celestial Path was the most coveted route for cultivators. Yet, for countless years, aside from Feng Jiu, Mo Chen, and Xuanyuan Mo Ze, almost no one had ascended. Few dared even attempt it. They envied those who could soar to the Nine Heavens, yet they themselves dared not try, for failure meant certain death.

Monarchs and cultivators from all realms watched this magnificent spectacle. They knew this might be their only lifetime’s chance to witness an ascension—the celestial path had opened.

Upon the mountain peak, Xuanyuan Mo Ze, bathed in sacred light, opened his eyes at that very moment.
