A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 89

“Where are you going?”

Upon hearing that Wu Hao would be leaving for a while, Su Qiaoran instantly lost her drowsiness, climbing out of Wu Hao’s embrace with a worried expression on her face.

After all, based on her understanding of Wu Hao, if he could take her along, he probably wouldn’t have mentioned it in this way.

Wu Hao gently stroked Su Qiaoran’s beautiful hair and replied, “It’s nothing serious, I just need to find the cultivation techniques for Wu Dong, Xian Ni, and Mo Wu, so it will take a bit of time. Don’t worry, it won’t exceed four years. I promise to return by then to go with you to the Four Saints Competition.”

Despite Wu Hao’s repeated assurances, Su Qiaoran remained worried but still agreed.

“You must be careful. No matter the situation, prioritize your own safety, understood?”

“Mm, I understand!”

Wu Hao nodded, taking Su Qiaoran’s admonition to heart.

Then, he disappeared from in front of Su Qiaoran.

When Wu Hao reappeared, he was already by Wu Mengdie and the others’ side.

“Master!”

Seeing Wu Hao arrive, Wu Mengdie quickly knelt on one knee, as did the other ninety-nine guards.

Wu Hao nodded; in less than three days, those ninety-nine guards had consumed the Blood Emperor Pills and had truly become Great Emperors.

“I need to leave the Xuantian Realm for a while. During this time, protect the Wu Family well. If anything happens to the Wu Family, you should know what to do.”

Wu Hao directly stated his intentions.

Hearing this, Wu Mengdie said with a serious expression, “Master, don’t worry, if anything happens to the Wu Family, I will take my own life!”

“Mm!”

After giving his instructions, Wu Hao left several restrictions within the Wu Family; even a Golden Immortal would not be able to deal with the Wu Family.

Once everything was done, Wu Hao carefully sensed his surroundings, and the next moment he directly tore through the space in front of him, vanishing from the Xuantian Realm.

When Wu Hao appeared on the other side of the spatial rift, he found himself in the Upper Realm.

“Is this the Upper Realm?”

As he sensed the area, Wu Hao felt a type of energy present in the Upper Realm that the Xuantian Realm lacked, called celestial energy.

Moreover, the concentration of spiritual energy in the Upper Realm was considerably higher than that in the Xuantian Realm. No wonder it wasn’t hard for those born in the Upper Realm to break through to the Great Emperor level; it could even be said that being a Great Emperor was just the starting point in the Upper Realm.

“Alright, let me find a nearby sect and gather some information about the Upper Realm.”

In an instant, Wu Hao’s divine sense, possessing the strength of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, spread out from him, covering an area of about tens of thousands of regions in the Xuantian Realm, and soon found a more suitable sect.

With that thought, Wu Hao stepped down and, in just a few breaths, arrived in front of that sect.

“Chiliang Sect.”

Sensing that the strongest person within the Chiliang Sect was merely a cultivator at the Initial Stage of Golden Immortal, Wu Hao then stepped inside.

Meanwhile, inside the Chiliang Sect, an Elder at the Late Stage of True Immortal was standing before the Sect Leader.

“Sect Leader, only three hundred cultivators from our Chiliang Sect have ascended to the Upper Realm in the past century. The number of Immortal Crystals mined from the Immortal Mine has drastically decreased. If this continues, it might impact the development of our Chiliang Sect.”

Upon hearing this, the Sect Leader of Chiliang Sect furrowed his brow. It wasn’t a secret in the Upper Realm that forces would capture the Mortal Immortals ascending from the Lower Realm near ascension points to mine materials; everyone did this, so he didn’t find it particularly strange.

After all, mining requires cultivators with considerable strength; those Mortal Immortals ascending from the Lower Realm could just be captured to mine.

Of course, they wouldn’t over-exploit them; they would only allow them to work in the Chiliang Sect’s Immortal Mine for a hundred thousand years before letting them leave. For Mortal Immortals, a hundred thousand years equates to only about five years for an ordinary person.

Thus, in order to survive under the Chiliang Sect, no matter how furious they might be, they could only comply.

“Since there are few ascended cultivators from the Lower Realm, let’s recruit more cultivators. Mining for a day can yield a Supreme Spirit Stone, for those at the Supreme to Quasi-Emperor levels.”

With a sigh, the Sect Leader of Chiliang Sect could only give this order.

The Elder agreed and left. Shortly after, Wu Hao, whose presence was completely concealed, appeared in the Sect Leader of Chiliang Sect’s room.

“Who is it?”

Only when the Sect Leader looked up did he see Wu Hao not far away, and he was instantly filled with shock. He never expected that as a Golden Immortal powerhouse, he could be approached so closely without noticing. What level of cultivation did this Wu Hao possess?

At that moment, Wu Hao felt a twinge of surprise himself; he didn’t expect that forces in the Upper Realm would actually lie in wait near the ascension points to capture ascended cultivators for mining.

However, this didn’t concern him much. He had noticed that there were no forces waiting by the ascension points in the Xuantian Realm. After all, due to the absence of Great Emperors’ laws in the Xuantian Realm for countless years, no one had ascended, leading the forces of the Upper Realm to consider it a decayed realm, hence their absence at the Xuantian ascension points.

Shaking his head, Wu Hao decided not to pursue this matter further and instead looked at the Sect Leader of Chiliang Sect, speaking in a hoarse tone.

“I came to ask you something. You just need to cooperate, and I won’t make things difficult for you.”

“Please, senior, go ahead!”

The Sect Leader of Chiliang Sect quickly nodded in response. Even a fool could see that he was absolutely no match for Wu Hao; it was better to cooperate and perhaps have a chance to survive.

“I want to know about the situation in the Upper Realm and where I can obtain the cultivation techniques for the Innate Dao Fetus Sacred Body, Pure Yang Sacred Body, and Heaven-Devouring Demonic Body.”

Wu Hao said hoarsely. After hearing this, the Sect Leader of Chiliang Sect pondered for a moment before unhesitatingly revealing the current situation in the Upper Realm.

Of course, due to the strength of Chiliang Sect, he didn’t possess much useful information. From his words, Wu Hao learned that the Upper Realm was similar to the Xuantian Realm and was also divided into five regions.

These five regions were controlled by five Holy Lands: the Five Elements Holy Land, Chaos Holy Land, Time and Space Holy Land, Ancient Desolation Holy Land, and Anti-God Holy Land. The Holy Lords of these five great Holy Lands were all at the Late Stage of Immortal Emperor.

When he mentioned these five great Holy Lands, the Sect Leader of Chiliang Sect couldn’t help but show a look of longing.

“The founders of these five great Holy Lands were all Immortal Emperors at the pinnacle stage, but unfortunately, they have all vanished due to various reasons.”

“Therefore, there are no Immortal Emperors at the pinnacle stage in the current Upper Realm; the strongest are the five Holy Lords, all at the Late Stage of Immortal Emperor.”

As he spoke towards the end, the Sect Leader’s expression grew somewhat desolate. Though it didn’t have much to do with him, it was still comforting to know that the Upper Realm had Immortal Emperors at the pinnacle stage.

Upon hearing this, Wu Hao’s expression also became serious. If he were to confront a true Immortal Emperor, given his current strength, he would be at a profound disadvantage. Even with the enhancement from the Heavenly Emperor’s Myriad Dao Sutra, he wouldn’t be able to bridge that gap.

After all, he was still separated from the Immortal Emperor by four great realms: Immortal King, Immortal Sovereign, and Immortal Venerable. No matter how powerful the techniques were, crossing such a significant divide, especially at the Late Stage where the disparity in combat strength was immense, was nearly impossible even with high-level techniques.

So, although Wu Hao is currently only at the Initial Stage of Great Luo Golden Immortal, he can barely manage to fight against an Immortal King if it comes to a battle.
