Bai Yue wielded the Heavenly Dao, unequaled.

 

Above everyone but one, of course.

 

Well, not like anyone could ever top Chen Changan in the Absolute Domain.

 

Bai Yue spoke, “Many thanks, Master.”

 

Mo Wentian bowed.

 

“Fellow Daoist Bai Yue, congratulations.”

 

The cultivators sighed.

 

With that, the disciple contest drew to a close.

 

Chen Changan brought his two new disciples outside the Trial Tower and back into the real world.

 

The three became the target of countless eyes.

 

Chen Changan waved his hand and used Creation.

 

A spirit rain fell on everyone present.

 

Each of them felt their bodies changing, their talents rising, as every inch of their bodies improved.

 

Every cultivator cried out in joy, bolstering their respect towards him.

 

Even the audience ended up gaining something from Senior.

 

The cultivators were thrilled and thankful.

 

Chen Changan spoke, “The disciple contest is over. Mo Wentian and Bai Yue have both become my disciples, with Bai Yue earning her right as Heavenly Dao Protector.”

 

The people looked at the two with admiration.

 

Chen Changan resumed, “People, next comes the Ascension Program and picking the hundred lucky few. Look forward to seeing just which hundred among the many people in the Immortal Land shall it be.”

 

Chen Changan chuckled.

 

“Do not forget about the Trial Tower. With the Trial Grain, you can challenge it any time you wish. The rewards are plenty and advancement comes easy. I believe in all of you.”

 

Chen Changan left with his new disciples.

 

The cultivators were eager with burning gazes for that day to come.

 

It wasn’t the disciple contest that had them excited, but the Ascension Program.

 

[Senior is unfathomable and righteous!]

 

For him to say he’d ascend a hundred people, then it was already a done deal.

 

They were eager to know which lucky few got to enjoy such honor.

 

All saw themselves as being among them, filled with glory and power.

 

The cultivators of the Absolute Domain cultivated like mad, all to get Chen Changan’s attention.

 

On Soaring Immortal Mountain, Foxy panicked to hide her watermelon before he arrived.

 

Chen Changan caught her in the act.

 

“Foxy, where are you going?”

 

Chen Changan smiled.

 

“Ya, yi, ya, yi!”

 

She shied away, having been caught lazing about.

 

She put on a pleasing smile and showed an adorable face, while giving him the watermelon.

 

As if to say, “Master, you worked hard. Here, to quench your thirst.”

 

Chen Changan slapped her rear twice, hard enough to make her tear up and look pitiful.

 

“Ya, yi, ya, yi…”

 

She pleaded.

 

“Master, I was wrong. I won’t goof off again.”

 

Bai Yue and Mo Wentian just stared.

 

Foxy held her red face in embarrassment.

 

Chen Changan snatched the watermelon and took a bite. [Mm, quite sweet. The girl sure knows how to enjoy life.]

 

Then he said, “Go and cultivate.”

 

“Ya, yi, ya, yi!”

 

Foxy nodded and skipped away.

 

Mo Wentian gave her a curious look.

 

[Master’s disciple is so adorable.]

 

Chen Changan turned to them.

 

“Bai Yue, the Nine Province Cauldron belongs to you. You’ve had it before, but didn’t truly integrate with Nine Province Continent’s Heavenly Dao to become its protector.

 

“Use the following months to train and grasp the Heavenly Dao.”

 

“Understood, Master.”

 

Mo Wentian blinked, lost.

 

[She had it once before? The hell?]

 

Chen Changan turned to him.

 

“Mo Wentian.”

 

He snapped to attention.

 

“S-, Master!”

 

Chen Changan smiled.

 

“Tell the man in your mind to come out.”

 

Mo Wentian was put on the spot.

 

“Senior, he’s a soul. Having died ages ago, he hid in my mind and now can’t get out.”

 

The one-eyed Immortal Emperor was silent.

 

[Chen Changan isn’t that great. He knows I’m dead and still wants me to come out.]

 

[Except from unfathomable, that is.]

 

Unclear if Chen Changan had indeed revived all who entered the Trial Tower, he took it for a trick to pull the wool over his eyes.

 

Maybe the cultivators hadn’t even died to begin with.

 

Even if Chen Changan had such ungodly power, the Immortal Emperor would never believe Chen Changan could revive him as well.

 

[I’m an Immortal Domain’s mighty Immortal Emperor!]

 

But the next second, he felt his face burning.

 

Chen Changan pointed and the Immortal Emperor was remade anew.

 

His aged face still froze in disdain as he appeared in the flesh. The expression was quick to change into a goony one of shock.

 

Mo Wentian jumped in shock, wide-eyed.

 

[Old man, didn’t you say you died and can’t come out?]
