During Lu Wanqing's tribulation and transformation, shortly after, Tian Gang Ancient Wood, Tian Sha Ancient Wood, and Tian Shu Ancient Wood also successfully crossed their heavenly tribulations.
These four great ancient woods were all ranked on the Fourth Stage Immortal List, thus each received a Grade Five Inferior Boundary Breaking Pill, allowing them to directly advance to higher realms.
With the success of the four ancient woods in crossing their tribulations, within the Qingyang Immortal Realm, four new elders at the Divinity Separation stage of the Fifth Stage were immediately added.
Including Gu Fang and Lin Lin who had previously crossed their heavenly tribulations, the number of Fifth Stage powerhouses within the Qingyang Immortal Realm now totaled six.
The next day,
In the Heavenly Chat Group, a new mission suddenly appeared.
[Due to the past invasion of the Non-Immortal Realm, which caused severe losses to the Qingyang Realm, this battle should not be forgotten by time. Now that the strength of the Qingyang Immortal Realm has greatly increased, it is time to counterattack!]
[Mission Requirements: Counterattack the Non-Immortal Realm, eliminate the rebellious cultivators!]
[Mission Rewards: 50 offerings for killing a First Stage cultivator, 500 offerings for killing a Second Stage cultivator, 5000 offerings for killing a Third Stage demon cultivator, 50,000 offerings for killing a Fourth Stage cultivator, 500,000 offerings for killing a Fifth Stage cultivator, 50 million offerings for killing a Sixth Stage cultivator!]
...
[The prestige of the Lord of Qingyang shall spread throughout the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, illuminating all living beings and becoming a legendary tale!]
[Mission Requirements: Spread faith in the Lord of the Country!]
[Mission Rewards: Generating faith in ordinary humans earns 1 offering, generating faith in First Stage beings earns 5 offerings, generating faith in Second Stage beings earns 10 offerings, generating faith in Third Stage beings earns 100 offerings, generating faith in Fourth Stage beings earns 1000 offerings, generating faith in Fifth Stage beings earns 10,000 offerings, generating faith in Sixth Stage beings earns 100,000 offerings!]
...
These two Heavenly Court missions suddenly surfaced, instantly detonating the entire Heavenly Chat Group.
In the past thirty years, it was the first time such missions were issued in the Heavenly Chat Group, and to launch dual missions simultaneously was exceptionally rare.
Both the first and second missions implied substantial offerings as rewards.
...
[Qin You, Third Stage Late Phase: Could the second mission be about proselytizing in other realms?]
[Yan Haiyun, Fourth Stage Middle Phase: Obviously so, but the rewards for this mission are indeed generous. At least one offering per single living being, but I wonder how many beings are in other realms?]
[Wen Song, Third Stage Middle Phase: There must be countless beings in other realms, far exceeding the boundaries of the Qingyang Realm.]
[He Shao, Third Stage Complete: It seems that after thirty years of silence, the Immortal Realm is finally launching a full counterattack!]
[Lu Wen, Fourth Stage Early Phase: My immortal sword has long been eager...]
...
As the information in the Heavenly Chat Group surged like tides, Lu Qingyang immediately issued an immortal decree, warning Gu Fang and others that the Qingyang Immortal Realm was about to launch a counterattack.
This battle would determine the life and death of the Immortal Realm, and he urged everyone to do their utmost.
While it was not necessary to completely destroy the Ancient Wilderness, it was essential to open a crack that allowed Immortal Realm cultivators to penetrate it.
This was the core objective of Lu Qingyang's counterattack this time.
With the current cultivation of the Qingyang Immortal Realm, sweeping away the Ancient Wilderness or even the entire Non-Immortal Realm was like a fool's dream.
However, once a breach was opened, it would be sufficient for some Immortal Realm cultivators to infiltrate the Ancient Wilderness.
The Ancient Wilderness was vast and rich, ten times more so than the Qingyang Realm.
If they could cultivate cultivators using the resources of the Ancient Wilderness, the power of the Qingyang Immortal Realm would undoubtedly grow rapidly.
At the same time, only by opening a gap could the fragrance of incense spread in the Ancient Wilderness.
This would assist Lu Qingyang in absorbing the power of incense more quickly and help him advance his cultivation to a higher level.
Upon receiving the decree, the Qingyang Immortal Realm court immediately issued an announcement, summoning all sect cultivators and lone cultivators to gather in the Northern Domain.
Since the battle thirty years ago, the Qingyang Immortal Realm had been silent for a long time.
Now that the clarion call for counterattack had sounded, it awakened the enthusiasm in the hearts of countless experienced cultivators.
...
"The day has finally come!"
Inside the Shangyang Sect, Lin Lin, dressed in a green Dao robe, stood with hands behind his back on the peak.
He calmly watched the clouds come and go, an aura of killing intent hidden all around him, as if an invisible war intent surged into the sky.
This was a precursor to the impending great battle.
The entire Qingyang Realm could feel the murderous intent in the hearts of all beings.
It permeated the heavens and earth with a fierce battle intent, causing all other creatures to feel a chill.
Past memories flashed through Lin Lin's mind one by one, until the final scene appeared, causing a faint smile to appear at the corners of his lips.
When the monsters ravaged in the past, Lin Lin's parents and relatives all died in the jaws of monsters.
He secretly vowed that one day he would exterminate all monsters and avenge his parents and relatives.
Now that the monsters were almost extinct, Lin Lin's ambition had changed from his small family to the current larger family.
In his eyes,
The Qingyang Realm was his homeland, and he would not allow foreign enemies to invade even half a step.
It was for this reason that thirty years ago, when the invasion from another realm occurred, Lin Lin led the Qingyang Gang without hesitation to rush to the Northern Domain to defend it.
The choices he made thirty years ago remained unwavering.
"As long as I am alive, the Qingyang Realm will not allow the aliens to be rampant!"
Lin Lin whispered softly, and then his spiritual power surged out of his body.
A phantom rose from within him, covering the sunlight in the sky in an instant.
All disciples of the Shangyang Sect looked up at the towering figure, their eyes full of shock.
"Disciples of the Shangyang Sect, heed my command! Immediately set off for the Northern Domain to prepare for the counterattack against the alien realm! No mistakes allowed!"
The voice of the phantom thundered like thunder, falling into the ears of all disciples, stirring up their blood.
Immediately,
All disciples of the Shangyang Sect shouted in unison, "We obey the Sect Master's orders!"
...
"Excellent, Shangyang Sect!"
"Since the Shangyang Sect has moved, how can we lag behind? Brother Liu, are you willing to join me on the journey to the Northern Domain?"
"Ha ha, I had this intention. I have long heard about the earth-shattering battle thirty years ago. I didn't expect us to participate in it today."
"Very well, let's go together and explore the style of the alien realm."
Many lone cultivators surrounding the Shangyang Sect, hearing Lin Lin's voice and witnessing the scene of the disciples of the Shangyang Sect setting off collectively, felt a surge of battle intent and headed towards the Northern Domain.
The situation of the Shangyang Sect was just one facet of the overall situation of the Qingyang Immortal Realm.
With the spread of the news from the Immortal Realm court, sects of all sizes dispatched several powerhouses to the Northern Domain.
Furthermore, some sects, like the Shangyang Sect, almost mobilized their entire sect's strength without reservation.
Countless streaks of light crossed the sky, all cultivators wielding swords soaring into the wind.
There were also giant ships sailing across the vast sea, carrying those cultivators who could not fly in the air, rushing towards the Northern Domain!
