Chapter 579: Returning to the Heavenly Court
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Within a certain secret chamber, two spatial gates stood with scintillating light rippling across their openings.
The smaller of the two golden gates suddenly began to tremor as an extremely potent burst of spatial power emanated from the gate.
In the end, eighteen Soul Formation Stage cultivators appeared from the gate.
Wang Xuanzhan’s robe was stained with blood, and he held his spear tightly as he looked around, as if he was searching for someone. A pained expression then appeared on his face. “An Lin… did you not make it?”
Thirty-one Soul Formation Stage cultivators had entered through the small spatial gate, but only eighteen had returned. This was quite a heavy loss.
The joy of returning was immediately dampened by the thoughts of all those that didn’t make it, and the atmosphere became quite heavy all of a sudden.
Among those that had made the Ancient Divine Division their eternal resting place, there were friends, comrades, and lovers, but those people were never coming home again, and everyone was quite distraught at this notion.
At this moment, a white film of light enveloped all the cultivators as an extremely powerful healing spell technique was cast over everyone.
Emperor Ziwei was the one that had cast the healing spell technique, and everyone came to their senses before bowing to him.
Emperor Ziwei shook his head with a grave expression. “There’s no need for formalities. You are all heroes of the Heavenly Court, and I thank you for your efforts.”
Right at this moment, the small golden gate began to slowly disappear.
Everyone’s heart immediately sank. The spatial gate had closed, which meant that there really was no chance for all those cultivators to ever return home…
The large golden gate then began to tremble as a huge, burly man over three meters tall exited from the golden gate. He held a massive crimson ax in his hands while a vast aura emanated from his body.
“It’s the Giant Spirit God!” some of the Soul Formation Stage cultivators exclaimed with joyful expressions.
All the Return to Void Stage mighty figures were part of the elite Heavenly Court forces, so they were ecstatic to see a Return to Void Stage mighty figure returned safely.
Immediately afterward, a man in a red robe holding a “Sun Patrol” immortal badge appeared from the gate.
No one even had a chance to speak before another dazzling light erupted from the gate as a white-robed figure and a figure in a pink dress appeared.
“Not only is the Sun Patrol God back, but even Lü Dongbin and Celestial Maiden He have returned safely!” some of the cultivators exclaimed with joy.
However, as the light faded and they caught sight of the figure in the pink dress, their smiles all congealed on their faces as their mouths gaped open in shock.
Wang Xuanzhan stared with incredulity at the woman. “Liu Chuchu? Am… am I dreaming?!”
The petite woman in the pink dress turned to everyone with a cute smile while holding a super adorable snow soul beast in her arms.
“It’s me. I ended up in the Void Star Section due to some unforeseen circumstances, and it was all thanks to Senior Lü taking care of me that I was able to return safely,” Liu Chuchu said as she looked up with a grateful expression at the man beside her.
Lü Dongbin shook his head with a smile to indicate that she didn’t need to thank him. He then turned his eyes on the golden gate again, as if he was waiting for someone.
Emperor Ziwei was also quite surprised by Liu Chuchu’s emergence from the larger golden gate, and he too began to look at the gate with an expectant gaze.
Right at this moment, another burst of brilliant light flashed past as Celestial Maiden He and the Night Patrol God appeared.
“This is great! All of our Return to Void Stage mighty figures have returned safely!” Some of the cultivators were jumping in joy.
The Void Star Section was far more dangerous than the Ancient Divine Division, so the Return to Void Stage cultivators there faced many life-threatening hazards. For all five of them to come back safely was indeed something to celebrate about.
However, just when everyone thought Emperor Ziwei was going to take them away from here, everyone discovered that they still had their eyes on the golden spatial gate.
Liu Chuchu, LĂź Dongbin, Celestial Maiden He, and the Night Patrol God also had their eyes on the golden gate.
Everyone was quite confused by their actions, and someone couldn’t help but ask, “Are you all waiting for someone?”
“I’m waiting for someone who saved my life.” Celestial Maiden He smiled with a firm expression in her eyes.
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this. Were there really more people to come?
Weren’t all the Return to Void Stage mighty figures of the Heavenly Court here already? Who could have saved Celestial Maiden He’s life?
Who would be powerful enough to do so?
A person suddenly sprang to Wang Xuanzhan’s mind, and his heart stirred as he looked up at the golden gate with a nervous expression.
A brilliant golden light burst forth from the golden gate along with an extremely formidable aura, causing the entire space to tremble as cracks began to appear on the golden gate.
Everyone stood rooted to the spot as they all stared at the golden gate.
Emperor Ziwei’s brows furrowed slightly as he waved a hand toward the golden gate, upon which a vast power poured forth from his fingertips, thereby stabilizing the golden gate.
Right at this moment, two figures began to appear.
A man in a white robe held the hand of a young boy in his right hand. There was a super adorable snow soul beast tucked under his right arm while a porcelain-like fairy with exquisite features sat on his shoulder.
Everyone’s eyes widened as their minds went blank.
What kind of f*cking combination was this? Were these people even from the Heavenly Court?!
No, wait, there was one person who was extremely familiar!
Even Emperor Ziwei’s eyelids twitched at the sight of this inconceivable group. He could understand An Lin’s emergence from the golden gate, and he could even accept the fact that he had brought a snow soul beast with him. But who the hell were that young boy and that fairy?!
“Huh? Am I the last one to come out?” As he emerged from the spatial gate, An Lin blushed lightly when he found out that everyone had their eyes trained on him. He then joined his hands in a salute and said, “Sorry to keep you all waiting.”
“Welcome back!” Lü Dongbin said with a gentle smile.
Liu Chuchu waved at An Lin with a charming smile on her face.
Wang Xuanzhan immediately walked up to An Lin before slapping his shoulder. “So you were at the Void Star Section as well! I mourned for you over nothing!”
An Lin waved his hand with a slight smile. “It was all a coincidence.”
Emperor Ziwei looked at An Lin’s group as countless galaxies flashed before his eyes. He blinked, and his eyes returned to normal, but there was an undisguised shock lingering on his face.
“An Lin, who are the Primordial Dragon Tribe cultivator as well as the fairy accompanying you?” Emperor Ziwei asked.
Xue Zhantian glowered at Emperor Ziwei upon hearing this, as if he was dissatisfied with Emperor Ziwei’s lack of regard for Papa Zhantian!
“Oh, this here is Xiao Ze. He is my disciple, and this fairy Tina is my beast pet,” An Lin replied truthfully. These two were both going to be living at the Heavenly Court from now on, so it was best for everyone to know about these things.
Emperor Ziwei’s face convulsed. “So, you accepted a primordial dragon at the pinnacle of the Return to Void Intermediate Stage as your disciple, and a True Holy Rank fairy as your beast pet?”
“Yes!” An Lin nodded.
“Gasp…” Everyone’s eyes widened in shock as they drew another collective sharp intake of breath.
A Soul Formation Stage cultivator was able to get a disciple at the pinnacle of the Return to Void Initial Stage?! And that fairy clearly possessed power equivalent to a Return to Void Stage mighty figure as well, but she became An Lin’s beast pet?!
Everyone felt like either they were dreaming, or the world had been flipped on its head.
If they were to tell someone else about this, they would definitely get slapped across the face and denounced for fabricating tall tales and trying to treat people like idiots!
Was this something a Soul Formation Stage cultivator was supposed to be able to do? It would probably be more fitting if he was a Dao Integration Stage True God!
Even Liu Chuchu and Lü Dongbin were completely dumbstruck. They had never met Xiao Ze, and they were shocked that An Lin was able to make a dragon at the pinnacle of the Return to Void Intermediate Stage his disciple…
Wang Xuanzhan was completely rooted to the spot once again upon hearing the conversation between Emperor Ziwei and An Lin, and he felt like he didn’t have enough brain cells to process the situation.
“Hahaha… Your luck is truly astounding, An Lin!”
Emperor Ziwei nodded with a slight smile.
An Lin was probably the only person in the entirety of the Heavenly Court that could receive praise like this from Emperor Ziwei.
Even though he already had high expectations for An Lin, An Lin was still able to completely exceed his lofty hopes.
However, he was a mighty figure that had lived for countless years, and he was soon able to calm his emotions. After the two spatial gates disappeared, he waved a hand through the air, and the space around everyone warped before they were teleported to a cavernous white palace.
Emperor Ziwei’s mighty yet soothing voice sounded, “Now then, let’s begin the Realm Essence Crystal exchange.”
