Chapter 1545 - The Immortal Ascension War

Qin Nan was rather curious about the question.

The Beast Hide Drawing mentioned about becoming an immortal, seeking the Dao, and mastering the Dao. It was clear that there were more levels above the Heaven Immortal Realm.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not too familiar with the higher levels. I only know the level above the Heaven Immortal Realm is called 'seeking the Dao', and once you reached a certain level, you will be called a Nine Heavens Supreme!"

The patriarch of the Luoshen Clan wore an apologetic face.

His talents were rather ordinary, and he did not possess an Immortal Root, nor did he have a good background. As such, he only spent a short amount of time in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. His knowledge was rather limited.

"Nine Heavens Supreme?"

Qin Nan's eyes flickered with astonishment.

"Yes, in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, only a Nine Heaven Supreme can establish the Supreme Daoism."

"Even a peerless ruler can only expand their influence, they aren't allowed to recruit disciples."

"However, rumors said that there are more secrets to the Supreme Daoism, yet they are beyond my understanding."

The patriarch of the Luoshen Clan added.

"Interesting."

Qin Nan's eyes emitted a golden flicker.

The Primary Upper Realm was vastly different than the Secondary Lower Realm.

The term 'Supreme Daoism' alone already sounded intriguing.

"By the way, do you know what 'the thirty-ninth immortal' mean?"

Qin Nan suddenly remembered something, yet he did not mention the fifth immortal, as he was afraid that someone might relate it to the Divine G.o.d of Battle.

"The thirty-ninth immortal? I'm sorry, I never heard anything like it."

The patriarch of the Luoshen Clan wore a wry smile.

"That's fine, you won't need to say anymore. I just want to know, how do the cultivators in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm become an immortal?"

Qin Nan took a sip of the Luoshen Fu and asked.

He could learn about other secrets when he visited the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm himself. His priority was to learn how to ascend as an immortal.

"I do know a thing or two about that."

The patriarch of the Luoshen Clan sat straight and said, "Becoming an immortal is different than becoming an Earth G.o.d or Heaven G.o.d. You will need to achieve the peak Heaven G.o.d Realm and must also possess an Immortal Root. Those without one has no chance of becoming an immortal."

"On top of that, you also need an Immortal Badge of Ascension!"

Qin Nan frowned, "Immortal Badge of Ascension?"

The real path of cultivation required the cultivator to achieve further levels through their hard work. The requirement to have an Immortal Root was understandable, as those without an innate Immortal Root could still acquire one through certain methods.

However, why would one need the Immortal Badge of Ascension?

Does this mean the situation here is the same as becoming a Martial Monarch or Martial G.o.d in the Canglan Continent?"

"That's right, to be precise, having an Immortal Badge of Ascension doesn't really make any difference. It's more like a tradition that has been pa.s.sed down since ancient times."

"If you have an ordinary badge, you just need to insert the aura of a peerless ruler into it, and carve the word 'immortal' on it to make it an Immortal Badge of Ascension."

"Only those with an Immortal Badge of Ascension is allowed to partic.i.p.ate in the Immortal Ascension War. Those without can still take part in it, yet they would be picked on by the rest."

The patriarch of the Luoshen Clan said.

Qin Nan understood most of it by now.

The difference between a G.o.d and an immortal was remarkably different, similar to the difference between a Martial Progenitor and a Martial Monarch in the Canglan Continent.

The tradition of the Immortal Badge of Ascension allowed the peerless rulers to recruit new talented genius through various methods.

On top of that, there were more benefits too, but it was unnecessary to explain them all. The significance of the Immortal Badge of Ascension could be summarized easily with the word 'benefit'.

"What is the Immortal Ascension War? Does this mean I'll need certain fortunate encounters to become an immortal?"

Qin Nan asked his doubts.

"Of course not, you can only rely on yourself to become an immortal. However, I bet you know that every time someone achieves greatness, a grand occasion is also a must?"

Qin Nan nodded upon hearing this.

When he achieved the Martial Monarch Realm or the Martial G.o.d Realm, he too needed a huge crowd to witness it. Apparently, the Martial Serendipity Pavilion and the others described it as some kind of rules.

"It's the same when someone is ascending as an immortal. Everyone needs a grand occasion to become an immortal. Otherwise, the process will simply fail."

The Immortal Ascension War involves those with an Immortal Badge of Ascension to compete with one another for the fortunate encounters in forbidden places or battlegrounds named with the words 'Immortal Ancient' in order to successfully ascend as an immortal.

"After countless years, we've learned some patterns. Every twenty to forty years, a few tens of Immortal Ancient forbidden places or battlegrounds would be accessible."

The eyes of the Luoshen Clan's patriarch flickered with antic.i.p.ation.

Once when an Immortal Ancient battleground opened, he was watching from a great distance away. He would never forget the aura he felt from the battleground.

Even if he failed to become an immortal, he would have achieved the Earth G.o.d Realm a lot earlier than he did with the fortunate encounter he acquired from the forbidden places.

"What does Immortal Ancient mean?"

Qin Nan was getting more curious.

"Immortal Ancient means places filled with natural artifacts, materials, or, successions acc.u.mulated over the years."

"Besides, cultivators in the Heaven G.o.d Realm were not allowed to enter these places."

"Speaking of which, there's also an unspoken rule regarding ascending as an immortal. If anyone failed to become an immortal and ended up dead, they will leave their succession in the forbidden places."

The patriarch of the Luoshen Clan explained.

"I see."

Even Qin Nan could not help but let out a sigh in his heart.

He never thought becoming an immortal would be this complicated, to involve so many kinds of rules.

However, only through these traditions and rules, people would regard it as an extremely important matter.

Besides, it also reflected on how developed the path of cultivation was.

Without all of these, it simply meant the path of cultivation was either still growing, declining, or was still in the initial phase.

"I wonder how many geniuses would show up during the war!"

Qin Nan subconsciously clenched his fists. The flicker in his eyes grew stronger.

"Perhaps you are still unfamiliar with the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, and the other smaller worlds. I will now tell you about them..."

The patriarch of the Luoshen Clan explained everything in detail. Qin Nan learned that there were around three thousand smaller worlds near the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

Some of the reputable worlds had Heaven G.o.d Realm experts, or even Human Immortals.

"Thanks," Qin Nan rose to his feet and said, "Can you please give me a map of the realm? I would like to visit the Hundred Little Worlds and enter the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm."

The Hundred Little Worlds included the Red G.o.d Realm and the Sky Wheel Realm that the Blood-Eye Earth G.o.d mentioned before, where he could find an Immortal Vessel.

Even Human Immortals would die if they tried to travel across the rift to reach the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. The only way was by taking an Immortal Vessel.

"Alright, I'll let someone prepare the map for you." The patriarch of the Luoshen Clan said. He added after a slight hesitation, "If you happened to visit the Sky Wheel Realm, you can activate this badge if you find yourself in any trouble."
