An invisible force of heaven and earth lifts Tai Bai Yun Sheng as he leisurely ascends.
He laughs wildly, his white beard dancing in the wind. Without any of his usual gentle and benevolent demeanor, his face is full of madness and distortion.
The Saint Palace is in panic. Gu Masters flee in disarray, converging into several large streams of people, all escaping for their lives.
After fleeing for ten thousand miles, only then do the people stop uneasily.
The strong Gu Masters occupy mountaintops or directly hover in the air, using investigative Gu worms, and watch the scene above the Saint Palace with varied expressions.
The other Gu Masters also look up at Tai Bai Yun Sheng in the air, with expressions of worship, awe, love, worry, jealousy, and so on.
News of Tai Bai Yun Sheng's promotion to Gu Immortal has spread like wildfire.
Ascending to immortality!
This word, which was previously unattainable, is now unfolding before everyone's eyes.
"Incredible! Tai Bai Yun Sheng hasn't even mobilized Gu worms, yet he has triggered changes in the celestial phenomena!" Watching the turbulent winds and clouds in the sky, many Gu Masters exclaim in surprise.
Soon, the waves of exclamation are about to reach a climax.
Because not only is the weather changing drastically, but the ground under people's feet begins to tremble slightly.
At first, it is just thin dust, but soon billowing smoke and ash rise from the ground.
"This is the turbulence of Earth Essence!"
"According to clan records, for a Gu Master to ascend to immortality, he must first shatter his aperture! After shattering the aperture, he can then resonate with Heaven Essence and Earth Essence!"
Ye Lu Sang, Hei Lou Lan, and others come from super tribes, and they know much more than ordinary people. At this moment, they see it with their own eyes and are shocked in their hearts.
The first step to ascending to immortality is to shatter the aperture.
Using true essence to violently impact the empty aperture, completely destroying it, shattering it into pieces.
In this way, the originally sealed empty aperture encased in crystal walls becomes a hole in the Gu Master's body.
"This first step alone requires tremendous courage. Because once the empty aperture is completely shattered, it can never be recovered." Clan Chief Gu Guo Long sighs.
"Ascending to immortality is extremely difficult, not one in a hundred succeed! Tai Bai Yun Sheng is truly courageous to dare take this step. I am full of admiration." Clan Chief Nie Ya Qing says with emotion.
Hei Lou Lan's expression is complex.
He knows the inside story, that Tai Bai Yun Sheng's ascension might have been prompted by his own actions.
"It was because of me that Tai Bai Yun Sheng was stimulated and risked ascending to immortality with a broken mentality. Fortunately, although I am familiar with the scriptures, I also need to witness it firsthand. Tai Bai Yun Sheng's ascension is of great reference and help to me. But... if he fails, so be it. If he really becomes a Gu Immortal, what attitude should I adopt towards him?"
Hei Lou Lan thinks of this, immediately frowns, and feels a headache.
Fang Yuan sits on the back of the Sky Green Wolf King, surrounded by the pack of Sky Green Wolves.
"Ascending to immortality..." His gaze is deep, with both excitement and nostalgia.
Using the Fortune Observation Gu, he sees the fortune on Tai Bai Yun Sheng, which is blazing like wildfire, originally red and fiery like a burning cloud. Now it is even more vigorous, as if burning fiercely!
"His fortune is blazing. In the past life, he successfully ascended to immortality, so in this life, there shouldn't be much problem." Fang Yuan nods to himself.
Unlike Hei Lou Lan's hesitation, facing Tai Bai Yun Sheng who is becoming immortal, he already has a plan.
Continuing to look, the Fortune Observation Gu cannot bear the burden and is even damaged.
His own eyes also feel a burning pain.
Fang Yuan immediately stops activating it and is not surprised.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng has already shattered his aperture, causing the heaven and earth essence within ten thousand miles to be stirred. Using Gu worms in this range will inevitably cause a chain reaction, causing the heaven and earth essence to violently surge, forming a backlash.
If one insists and forcefully uses them, even Immortal Gu will be damaged or even destroyed. Mortal Gu are even more so.
Fang Yuan has not considered using Gu worms at this time to secretly attack or restrain Tai Bai Yun Sheng for this reason.
If he acts rashly, it might even involve himself.
Soon, black clouds roll in the sky, forming a huge whirlpool.
Correspondingly, the yellow-brown smoke and dust on the ground tumble endlessly, also forming a hole.
"This Tai Bai Yun Sheng has deep accumulation and vast popularity, actually attracting so much Heaven Essence and Earth Essence! This scene is even more spectacular than our clan's supreme elder." Ye Lu Sang sees this and is shocked.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng has an immortal path inheritance, has traveled the Northern Plains all his life, and has extremely rich experiences. Now, he has almost completed his life, so his accumulation is extremely deep.
Two huge whirlpools cover a range of hundred miles.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng looks up, watching the violent and mighty whirlpool, as if a giant beast is opening its fierce mouth.
Compared to it, Tai Bai Yun Sheng's body is tiny, like a flying insect by a pond.
But Tai Bai Yun Sheng still laughs wildly.
"Come on, come on!" he shouts, his body trembling with fear, excitement, and relief. Even failure, for him, is a release.
As if hearing his call, the whirlpool, after brewing for a moment, begins to slowly rotate.
The two great whirlpools in the sky and on the ground rotate thunderously like millstones.
In the sky, the black cloud whirlpool flashes with lightning and thunders. On the ground, the smoke whirlpool emits purple smoke and roars.
As if grinding, a stream of clear light essence pours down from the black cloud millstone. From the smoke millstone, a stream of golden essence rises up.
These are exactly Heaven Essence and Earth Essence!
Heaven Essence is lofty and clear, Earth Essence is thick and deep.
And on Tai Bai Yun Sheng's body, a stream of white Human Essence emerges.
This Human Essence is very thick, like a cocoon, tightly wrapping Tai Bai Yun Sheng into a huge ball.
Heaven Essence descends, Earth Essence rises, they meet in midair and intertwine with Human Essence.
