Eternal Emperor's Path to Ascension

At the same time, a few million miles away from the Isle of Heavenly Demons.

A grand battle was taking place, with countless sword lights and spear shadows traversing through the airborne battlefields, illuminating the entire world.

The minimum level of cultivators present here was the Golden Core Realm, and even they were all mere fodders. Only the Void Refinement Realm of personal cultivation base provided a small sense of safety in the battlefield, while not even Nascent Soul Realm cultivators could guarantee stability.

This was a battlefield belonging to the upper echelons of the Immortal Cultivation World, at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm and beyond.

Everyone below that level was just in other small battlefields around the main one, only worthy of looking at the majestic display of true might and tremendous power from afar.

Even Lu Qingfeng and the people in his group, mainly his friends and affiliates of the Eternal Peak, were no exempt from this despite Lu Qingfeng being the Great General of the Demon Subjugation Heavenly Alliance.

Even if the Demon Subjugation Heavenly Alliance was the combined power of the State of Feng's top tier forces, their strongest hidden experts were still only in the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, while most powerhouses were at the Nascent Soul Realm.

They were really not worth anything when compared to the powerful factions outside the State of Feng, not to mention the entire Eastern Continent and even the Second Great Mortal World.

Lu Qingfeng's cultivation base was even lower, barely at the Void Refinement Realm. One of the only true reasons he was given such an important positions was because of his high status in the Eternal Peak and direct connection to the Eternal Lord.

Otherwise, who would believe that there was no good leader and powerful expert at least of the Nascent Soul Realm who had not seen blood or was not decisive enough in the entire State of Feng?

Even Lu Qingfeng himself understood this.

At this moment, a strong light suddenly flew over from afar, landing directly in front of Lu Qingfeng, who had just killed a cultivator at the later stages of Void Refinement Realm. His aura was still strong, and the killing intent around him still palpable.

A figure slowly stepped out of the light and bowed before Lu Qingfeng slightly, making the latter turn to look at him.

"How is the situation there?"

Lu Qingfeng asked calmly as Spiritual Energy emanated from his body, directly wiping off all blood and sweat from his robes.

The person who just arrived removed the black cloak covering his face as he looked up at Lu Qingfeng.

This person was none other than Wei Yusheng.

In the past few years, demonic cultivators and Demons were also joining the forces of the righteous path after betraying the demonic forces, making it the perfect opportunity for Wei Yusheng, who had been roaming the Eastern Continent for quite a while, to blend in and join the Righteous-Demonic War after learning that Lu Qingfeng was leading the army of the Demon Subjugation Heavenly Alliance.

He knew Lu Qingfeng as a Personal Disciple of the Eternal Lord when he first met him, and naturally wanted to help him since he had already pledged allegiance to the Eternal Peak.

Not long ago, he witnessed a battle of Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts and managed to obtain the inheritance of the expert who lost, allowing him to finally break through the shackles of Nascent Soul Realm and enter the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.

Since then, he had been collecting information for Lu Qingfeng from the main battlefield.

"The battle seems to have intensified, young master. Kunlun and other major factions' reinforcements have arrived, and there are more quite a few existences suspected of being above the Immortal Ascension Realm among them. They have recently located a hidden island a few million miles from here, speculated to be the main hideout of the demonic forces.

Now, the battlefield is continously moving towards that island. But there's no sign of those monstrous creatures truly dying. As soon as one is killed, a stronger one rises. It's like the demonic forces specifically planned all of this. Although with the help of countless experts, we still have the upper hand, the cultivation of those puppets have already entered the realm above Immortal Ascension Realm. The tide of the battlefield can be turned at any moment right now."

Wei Yusheng spoke without any fluctuations in his tone of voice, but his words made Lu Qingfeng involuntarily frown, his expression hardened.

"Beings above the Immortal Ascension Realm... I'm afraid this is no longer within the scope of our abilities. Don't look too deep into it now, and only report to me if any major even happens. From what I've heard, there's the Kunlun Immortal Convention happening in the Central Continent, and if my guess is correct, then after the convention ends, all forces affiliated with the righteous path in the entire world will take action and send reinforcements here. With our limited strength, we don't need to meddle in the affairs of big shots too much."

Even as he said this, Lu Qingfeng couldn't hide the slight sense of unease within his heart. As the Great General of the Demon Subjugation Heavenly Alliance, he was inexplicably nervous.

Suppressing his thoughts, he looked back at Wei Yusheng.

"Senior, you can go now. Stay safe on the main battlefield."

He didn't need to say much, as Wei Yusheng was older than him and also knew that life was the most important treasure in this world. He wouldn't risk his life for no reason.

After getting a few more instructions from Lu Qingfeng, Wei Yusheng left.

Lu Qingfeng looked at the direction of the main battlefield, a sense of longing in his eyes as he summarized his own strength.

Right now, almost all the forces of Qingyun Region were under him, including powerhouses of the Nascent Soul Realm such as Tan Xue and Mo Wenxiong who were fighting by his side, combined with special connections like Wei Yusheng, he could be said to have an extremely strong foundation.

Yes, nearly all the forces of Qingyun Region that were participating in the war had joined Lu Qingfeng. The main reason was the same; Lu Qingfeng being a Personal Disciple of the Eternal Lord.

However, that was far from enough.

In this world where a single Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivator was equal to hundreds of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators and a single person could suppress an army, quantity only had an advantage in the early stages.

It was wishful thinking to overpower an Immortal Ascension Realm powerhouses with Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators. Not even a thousand Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts could do that.

And how many Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators were even there in the entire world? Excluding the hidden experts, there were less than ten thousand.

One had to know that it was the most prosperous era, the Mythical Era, in the mortal world. Even in this era, it was difficult for a hundred thousand or more Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators to exist simultaneously at the same time. How many would be willing to sacrifice their lives just for a slim chance of killing an Immortal Ascension Realm?

Lu Qingfeng knew his limits. He couldn't get involved with such high level powers just yet. He had already decided that after the end of the Righteous-Demonic War, he would go back to the Eternal Peak and live in seclusion until he had attained at least the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.

In the end, strength is the true foundation of everything. I'm starting to understand why master always remains in seclusion to improve his cultivation base. It's because as a reincarnated being, he knows that there are extremely powerful people in this world, and having a little more strength is always good.

His expression slowly turned determined, and he gently shook his head, transforming into a streak of light an disappearing into the horizon.

...

Some time later.

Isle of Heavenly Demons.

Both Kong Junyu and Ye Ling sat in meditation dozens of feet apart from each other in a cave abode brimming with Spirit Qi.

A powerful cultivator could tell at a glance that there were many heavenly treasures and earthly materials in this cave abode, used for forcibly increasing the Spirit Qi and other aspects of the cave abode, increasing its overall quality to the level of the Half Immortal Realm. There were even quite a few Natural Treasures here.

Although Natural Treasures were hard to come by in millions of years, those were the truly top tier treasures even among the ranks of Natural Treasures. There were also other types of Natural Treasures that emerged every now and then, and although they were not as miraculous as the ones that only appeared a few times in a era, a Natural Treasure was still priceless and had countless mystical effects.

This cave abode was specifically prepared for Ye Ling, the Demon Saint, to stay in till further orders came from above.

Although Kong Junyu wouldn't stay here normally, him and Ye Ling had naturally formed a little friendship over the years despite their usual bickering, so Ye Ling allowed the former to stay here with him to cultivate.
