Chapter 523: Golden Immortal Dao Fruit?
Outside Misty Mountain, within Xiangdao Mountain.
At this very moment.
In the main square of Aspiring Path Sect's Xiangdao Mountain.
The Si Xiong and Baize were sitting on a high platform, engaging in a debate, discussing matters of spiritual practice.
Meanwhile, Baize's two disciples, Ning Fan and Long Lichuan, were cultivating in the square.
Although the entire Aspiring Path Sect was modest, it was brimming with vitality.
On the high platform.
The Si Xiong and Baize were conversing.
"The four of you should know that the heavens have changed, it's not the same era as before. What we need to consider is not how to restore the past, but how to integrate into this New Heaven and Earth, how to be accepted by it, to blend in and become one family!"
Baize spoke with force and conviction.
He wished he could slam the desk and rise up.
To loudly proclaim his philosophy.
The other Si Xiong had no intention of refuting his words; each of them loudly exclaimed how splendid it was.
What was called a debate was really more like a grand assembly fawning over the New Heaven and Earth.
Baize saw the Si Xiong in agreement, smiled with satisfaction, and wished to continue speaking.
However, before he could open his mouth.
Suddenly, the expressions of all five of them quivered, as if sensing something.
At almost the same moment, they all stood up and looked in the direction of the Wayless Sect.
Their gazes were somewhat strange...
This was an indescribable oddness.
It was a mix of doubt, confusion, shock, and incomprehension.
"Is this, is this the aura of the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit?"
Baize was flabbergasted.
As for the Immortal Realm, after a mortal enters, they become a Loose Immortal, Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, True Immortal, Golden Immortal.
Upon entering each realm, one needs to consolidate the corresponding Dao Fruit, inscribing it into the vast River of Time in order to transcend realms.
Among these, the hardest Dao Fruit to consolidate is the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit.
With Golden Immortality, one is undying, everlasting, and lives as long as the heavens.
Consolidating the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit requires the condensation of a powerful Dao, which is extremely difficult.
For the Si Xiong and Baize, the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit is, of course, not even worth mentioning.
But now...
They were in the mortal world.
And in a world overseen by the New Heaven and Earth.
How could the aura of the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit possibly appear?
Although this trace of aura was very subtle, it was undoubtedly that of a Golden Immortal Dao Fruit.
How could a Golden Immortal come into being in the mortal realm?
And to directly transcend so many Immortal Realms?
But in the mortal realm, how could a Golden Immortal emerge? Aside from remnants of the old era, it was impossible for immortals to appear.
"This is definitely the aura of the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit, and moreover, it's a completely new kind of Golden Immortal Dao Fruit, different from our era's. It's a Golden Immortal Dao Fruit realized by someone from the new era," said Taotie, one of the Si Xiong, as he frowned slightly.
"How could there be immortals in the new era? Impossible!"
Taowu also found it utterly impossible.
The most talented individual he had seen in the new era was Ye Luo.
But Ye Luo was at the very peak of the mortal realm, so how could he leap over several major realms and directly consolidate a Golden Immortal Dao Fruit?
"Could it be an existence from the old era, reincarnated and cultivating anew, who has consolidated the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit under a new era's identity?"
Qiongqi offered a speculative question.
"That's even more preposterous. Aren't people like Ye Luo the pinnacle of the New Heaven and Earth? Even if they were reincarnated beings from the old era, it wouldn't be possible for them to reach that level,"
Hundun shook his head as he spoke.
Listening to these words.
Baize shook his head.
His gaze turned toward Misty Mountain.
"This is not a complete Golden Immortal Dao Fruit, it only has a hint of its essence. It's probably the insight of a prodigy," Baize looked towards Misty Mountain with a profound gaze, seemingly having guessed something.
"The proud sons of the new era? The only decent ones in the new era are all disciples of that individual, could it be that one of his disciples has realized..."
Taotie spoke rather casually.
But as he spoke, he froze completely.
The whiff of the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit aura seemed indeed to have come from Misty Mountain.
Could it really be the doing of one of his disciples?
To gather a Golden Immortal Dao Fruit with a mortal body? Even just a hint of the aura of the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit was incredible.
Being able to condense a trace of the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit in the mortal realm, what does that signify? It means that the future is almost certainly that of becoming a Golden Immortal.
His disciple is too terrifying...
No, to be precise, he himself is too terrifying.
In this New Heaven and Earth, to ensure that a mortal will definitely achieve the status of a Golden Immortal?
What kind of colossal power is this?
That individual!
Unfathomable!!
"Daoist Bai, can you tell which of his disciples has grasped a hint of the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit?"
Hundun asked in a deep voice.
"This aura, one only needs to feel it briefly to recognize it, it's that Young Friend Ye, Ye Luo," Baize inhaled deeply before responding.
Comparison with others can be infuriating.
Why don't his disciples have such great capabilities? With their mortal bodies, to explore that Immortal Realm.
"Ye Luo..."
The Si Xiong also fell into contemplation with eyes flashing, who knows what they were considering.
"What are you all thinking about? Those looks don't bode well."
Baize glanced at the Si Xiong with annoyance and said.
"Nothing, we were just wondering how far this Ye Luo could go in the future," Taotie waved his hand and replied.
"How far could he go? With Daoist Chu around, Ye Luo's achievements would at the very least not be inferior to ours, what's there to wonder about?" Baize rolled his eyes and said.
"That's true, by the way, Daoist Bai, I remember the Sun Mother is still in his sect, isn't she? I wonder if he has seen the Sun Mother?" Taotie looked up and mentioned casually.
"Whether he has seen her or not, what happened, none of it concerns us anymore. We are people of the new era now, you all have to remember that..." Baize looked at the Si Xiong with a meaningful expression and added.
They have already picked their side.
They stood with the new era.
The moment they made their choice, they had already resolved to bid the old era farewell.
Baize didn't want to end up receiving petty restraints from the New Heaven and Earth for incorrect speech, which would indeed make them weep.
"We are well aware of that," the Si Xiong quickly concurred.
Naturally, they understood this reasoning as well.
Since the new era was in charge now, of course, they would align with the new era.
After all, the old era could join the new era; it wasn't without choices.
And wasn't Chu Yuan the representative of the old era joining the new era?
With Chu Yuan as their representative, what did they have to worry about?
Seeing that the Si Xiong all nodded, Baize naturally didn't say much more.
His gaze first turned towards Misty Mountain.
And then to the firmament above.
He didn't know when he would be able to officially join the New Heaven and Earth.
But he always felt that this new era was becoming less and less tranquil.
Recently, it seemed that more and more remnants of the old era were reviving.
On a previous venture out, he actually saw a minor monster from the old era attempting to overthrow the heavens and the earth, only to be suppressed by the new era's heavenly order.
This situation...
Gave Baize a sense of familiarity.
The sense one has just before a great calamity descends...
