Pay to Cultivate Immortality? My Sect is Completely Free - Chapter 377

Chapter 377 Gao Clan True Immortal, Gao Yunxiao!

一 sword cut down, and every formation beneath it collapsed.

Gao clan city was too vast; covering such a large area, its formations could never be on the true-immortal level—the resources required would far exceed what the Gao clan could afford.

Those formations were only at the heavenly-immortal level, at best able to temporarily hold off a ninth-rank heavenly immortal for a time.

And Su Bai’s normal strength now had already reached the pinnacle of the ninth rank!

Now it had been multiplied twentyfold!!

Plus the Supreme Law, a divine power far beyond true-immortal level!!

Under that strike, the Gao clan city’s formations shattered completely, unable to withstand even a single breath.

“Rumble!!”

The sword qi was so powerful that in an instant the entire Gao clan residence was leveled to the ground.

Endless dust shot into the sky, sweeping in all directions.

With one stroke, at least dozens of Gao clan elders at sixth rank or higher were annihilated!!

Those below sixth rank were even more innumerable.

Almost at the same time, the powerful figures throughout Gao clan city looked up toward the sky.

“What’s happening? Who dares provoke the Gao clan—do they not know how to die?”

“Such terrifying momentum—could some great being have arrived in Gao clan city?”

“Run, run, it’s starting again!!”

…………….

Those below heavenly-immortal rank quickly left the Gao residence and fled to the outer city.

That battle four thousand years ago had left an unforgettable impression on every Gao clan member!

Whoever dared attack the Gao clan clearly wasn’t someone the likes of these non-true-immortals could contend with!

“Who are you!!”

“How dare you strike our Gao clan city—do you want to die!!”

“Shush, shush, shush!!”

Powerful auras erupted from all corners of Gao clan city; nearly every sixth-rank heavenly immortal emerged!

Counting them up, there were over six hundred of them!!

More than six hundred heavenly immortals above sixth rank!!

And that didn’t include the dozens Su Bai had just slain with that strike!

“Who are you, with such boldness!”

The Gao clan patriarch also appeared, sweat breaking out over his body.

That sword qi had grazed past his nose as it fell!

An eighth-rank Gao clan elder who had been speaking with him instantly vaporized beneath it!

How could he not be terrified!!

“Four thousand years ago, the ascendant you besieged—what happened to him?” Su Bai’s calm voice sounded, yet it exploded like thunder in the ears of every Gao clan member.

Four thousand years ago……….

The faces of the Gao elders shifted slightly as they recalled that unforgettable battle.

The Gao clan patriarch furrowed his brow, staring fixedly at Su Bai.

At this moment Su Bai was shrouded in blinding light; his appearance could not be made out.

His aura—too overpowering!!

Far beyond a ninth-rank peak heavenly immortal like him!!

A true immortal?

He shook his head. True immortals—also called Dao-drifting immortals—are linked to the Immortal Realm’s Dao; as long as the Immortal Realm endures the true immortal does not perish!

Their every move can stir the tide of heaven and earth, possessing supreme might!

This person was not a true immortal.

Rather, his aura was similar to……….

that one from four thousand years ago!

“You are an ascendant!!!”

The Gao clan patriarch’s pupils constricted as he instantly realized.

In the Immortal Realm, ascendants are classified.

Rogue immortals, earthly immortals, ascendants—these are all ordinary ascendants, very common.

An ascendant whose combat power reaches the heavenly-immortal level is extraordinarily rare!

If someone cultivates to heavenly-immortal in the lower realm with such defiant talent, becoming a true immortal in the Immortal Realm would be effortless!!

A heavenly-immortal ascendant is far too valuable to be used just for mining.

Typically, if you capture an ascendant of that caliber, you hand them over to a Great Power—far more valuable than immortal crystals!

They are treasures in human form!

Whatever unparalleled physique, whatever supreme bloodline, and so on…

Generally speaking, it’s almost unheard of to find an ascendant possessing strength above sixth-rank heavenly immortal; in the lower realm you simply can’t cultivate to that level!

Even someone of War Emperor’s peerless talent, after ten thousand years of cultivation, would at most reach the fourth-rank heavenly immortal!

The main limiting factor is lifespan!

The lower realm has no immortal crystals; no matter how stunning your looks or unparalleled your talent, aging still takes its toll.

After over ten thousand years, being able to reach fourth-rank heavenly immortal already means you could slaughter in the Immortal Realm!

But theory is made to be broken!

Four thousand years ago, the ascendant who appeared in Gao clan city shattered everyone’s expectations of the limits of an ascendant’s power!

An ascendant actually managed to wound a true immortal!

If he were to transform that into immortal power, wouldn’t he become a true immortal in one step??

After that battle, many Great Powers sent people near Gao clan city to search for traces of that ascendant.

Alas, that person vanished as if into thin air and never reappeared.

Now, four thousand years later, people had almost forgotten his existence; only the sword scar in Gao clan city remained to prove he had been here.

And now, once again, Gao clan city has produced such a terrifying ascendant!!

This brought the Gao clan patriarch to the brink of tears.

“Old Ancestor! Save the Gao clan!!!”

He shouted at once, calling for the Old Ancestor.

Against an enemy like this, if the Old Ancestor did not come out, even if the entire Gao clan banded together they would not be enough to fight him!

“Rumble!!!”

A surging, overwhelming force erupted from deep within Gao clan city.

In an instant it quelled the whole city.

A towering, earth-touching, majestic giant formed within Gao clan city.

It was a grand man clad in golden armor, holding a long spear, radiating murderous intent.

His aura was immensely robust!

It was none other than the Gao clan Old Ancestor—True Immortal Gao Yunxiao!!!

Gao Yunxiao has now lived four million years; he attained true immortality a million years ago, founded Gao clan city, and ruled over the region.

Before attaining true immortality he had already appeared frail and aged, but now, appearing, he looked so young!

This was not an illusion or a disguise!

His vigor was genuinely overflowing!

A true immortal—immortal and ageless!

“As long as the sun and moon do not perish, I do not perish; as long as heaven and earth endure, I endure!”

This is a true immortal!

“Hail the Old Ancestor!!!”

The Gao clan strongmen prostrated themselves one after another, speaking with reverence.

At this moment, everyone in Gao clan city finally breathed a sigh of relief—Old Ancestor had emerged. With him present, the Gao clan faced no danger.

Over a million years, the Gao clan had encountered countless crises, including the battle four thousand years ago.

But each time, whenever the Old Ancestor intervened, all formidable enemies dissipated!

The reason the Gao clan could secure Gao clan city and guard an Ascension Platform was, above all, the presence of this true immortal!

“I am Gao Yunxiao. No matter where you come from, since you have the audacity to come rampaging through my Gao clan city, you must die!”

True Immortal Gao Yunxiao’s eyes flashed with a murderous light as he said coldly.

“Boom!”

He struck; the long spear in his hand pierced the void and shot straight at Su Bai.

“Vrrr… vrrr… vrrr…”

In an instant, Heaven and Earth trembled!!!

The void in all directions was restrained.

Endless elemental forces of Heaven and Earth poured crazily into the spear tip.

That single thrust came like an assassination—sky shattering, earth cracking, Heaven and Earth overturned.

And this was still within the Immortal Realm, under the suppression of Immortal Realm laws!

If this had happened in the lower realm………..

Just that one spear would be enough to turn everything visible and invisible into dust!

One spear to destroy a great realm is not an idle boast!

This is the true meaning of a true immortal!!
