Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 292

Chapter 292 The Largest Fragment of the Immortal Ladder

. Tianzun had reached the Tribulation Crossing Stage, largely due to his Devouring Technique, which had accumulated a vast amount of spiritual energy within him. This, not to mention

the spiritual energy he absorbed from all the cultivators he had slain, was terrifying.

Although Tianzun was the weakest Tribulation Crossing Stage cultivator Jiang Li had ever encountered, his spiritual energy was immense, rivaling even veterans like Commander Liu.

At the moment of his death, the spiritual energy dissipated, filling the heavens and earth.

Jiang Li felt this was still too slow, so he gently waved his hand, and the spiritual energy, like a child reborn, darted across the Tonggu Continent at breakneck speed. With a flick of his

finger, Jiang Li destroyed the Immortal Dynasty’s spiritual gathering formation, completely freeing the spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy concentration across the entire continent increased at a terrifying rate visible to the n*ked eye.

Yu Feng and Wu Lian, the two closest to Tianzun’s corpse, were the first to be impacted by the spiritual energy, breaking through bottlenecks in their cultivation and simultaneously ascending to the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, a mere step away from the Spiritual Transformation Stage.

Wu Lian still wanted to break through to the Spiritual Transformation stage in one fell swoop, but Yu Feng stopped her. Yu

Feng calmly advised, “Stabilize your foundation first. There’s no need to rush. A rash attempt at the Spiritual Transformation stage could leave behind a catastrophic situation.”

Yu Feng whispered in Wu Lian’s ear, “Senior Sister, we can practice dual cultivation tonight and slowly stabilize our foundation.”

Wu Lian’s ears flushed, and she hummed softly, “There’s no need to wait until night.”

Yu Feng’s eyes lit up, and he was about to say something when Jiang Li coughed, interrupting him.

“Ahem, not breaking through is a wise decision.” Jiang Li agreed with Yu Feng.

“Senior Jiang, what is your realm…” Yu Feng looked at Jiang Li with admiration. If he could have been as skilled as Senior Jiang, he wouldn’t have to have even half the cultivation, and he wouldn’t have faced the calamity of death.

When Tianzun first overcame the Immortal Transformation Tribulation and became an Immortal, Yu Feng was terrified, fearing Jiang Li would lose.

And even if he won, it would be after a hard-fought battle.

Who could have imagined that Senior Jiang could be so incredibly powerful?

This wasn’t even the Mahayana stage; this was a Great Immortal!

“The realm above the Tribulation Crossing Stage is the Mahayana Stage.”

“Isn’t that about transcending the tribulation and becoming an immortal?”

Jiang Li shook his head. “After the Tribulation Crossing Stage, there’s more to becoming an immortal than just transforming into an immortal body and absorbing immortal energy. You can also continue to cultivate using spiritual energy, making the impossible possible, and take a step further, reaching the Mahayana Stage.”

“But so far, I haven’t seen anyone else cultivate to my level.”

“Senior Jiang, hello.” Senior Sister Wu Lian nervously greeted Jiang Li, pinching the hem of her skirt.

In her impression, the higher the cultivation level of a cultivator, the more volatile their moods. Even though this senior seemed carefree and close to her junior brother, he could turn hostile if he got upset.

Jiang Li smiled, like an elder, giving off a sense of reliability. “Don’t be so nervous. I’ve actually been by your side for over six years, observing you the entire time. You just didn’t know it.”

Yu Feng couldn’t help but grumble, “Senior Jiang, you’re making yourself sound like a Peeping Tom.”

Jiang Li glared. “You kid, if you hadn’t been constantly restarting time and messing up the entire river of time, would I have been able to just be a spectator?”

“My bad, my bad. Thank you, Senior Jiang, for saving me,” Yu Feng quickly admitted.

“What’s going on?” Their conversation had confused Senior Sister Wu Lian. What was this about restarting time and the river of time?

“You explain,” Jiang Li urged.

Yu Feng had actually wanted to talk to Senior Sister Wu Lian for a long time, but he hadn’t found the right opportunity.

“It’s like this. I have a secret treasure within me that’s connected to the immortal realm. Whenever I die, I’ll be reborn seven years ago, when I was still a mortal.”

“I keep dying and resurrecting, analyzing the causes of my death and carefully trying to keep myself alive longer.”

“Unfortunately, my luck is terrible. I’ve died so many times, I’ve died so many times I’m too lazy to count, probably tens of thousands.”

Wu Lian hugged Yu Feng in her arms, distressed.

“When I was in despair, Senior Jiang came. He showed me the way to life, helped me survive the catastrophe, and saved me from the cycle of reincarnation.”

“Senior Sister, Senior Jiang actually saved you, too.”

“Me?” Wu Lian didn’t understand how this had come to her.

“Yes, in my tens of thousands of death experiences, I watched helplessly as you were killed by my Third, Fourth, and Fifth Senior Brothers, powerless to stop.”

“I tried many times to change this outcome, but to no avail. In return, you died thousands of times.”

“When Senior Jiang learned of this, he instructed me to incite a civil war among Senior Brothers Three, Four, and Five, exposing Master’s true identity and saving you from certain death.”

Three years in the outside world were enough to bring Senior Sister Wu Lian out of her naive inner circle. Yu Feng also revealed the truth about Senior Brothers Three and Four.

Wu Lian was stunned. She hadn’t imagined she had died hundreds of times. She was still alive thanks to Yu Feng’s efforts and Senior Jiang’s guidance.

She noticed the sadness, grief, and sorrow on her Junior Brother’s face when he told him he had died thousands of times. Even though she was still alive, those memories had deeply wounded him, a wound that only time could heal.

All she could do was to accompany him through his life.

“Thank you, Senior Jiang, for saving my life,” Senior Sister Wu Lian kowtowed to Jiang Li with all her heart.

“Yu Feng, I have selfish motives in raising you to the Nascent Soul stage. Only after you reach that stage can I remove the fragment of the Immortal Ladder within you.”

“Senior Jiang, you’ve helped me so much. The word ‘rebirth’ is indescribable. Please take the fragment.” Yu Feng knew that while Senior Jiang claimed to be motivated by selfishness, he wasn’t. Otherwise,

there would be no need for him to train so diligently. Even if he just watched, he could still reach the Nascent Soul stage, albeit a rather mediocre one.

The golden fragment of the Immortal Ladder was extracted. It was the largest Jiang Li had ever seen, and it still had energy, meaning it could still aid Yu Feng’s rebirth.

Jiang Li fused this fragment with the one he controlled, forming a new one.

By then, the Immortal Ladder had begun to take shape.

Jiang Li held it in his arms, as if holding a broken golden ladder.

According to the Immortal Master Changcun, the ladder to immortality can be large or small. The current ladder is in its smallest form. When Jiang Li collects all the fragments and puts together a brand new ladder, he can ascend to the heavens and fly to the immortal realm.

However, according to the Immortal Master, Jiang Li felt sorry that no immortals held up banners to welcome him, a newcomer to the immortal realm.

Upon hearing Jiang Li’s sigh, the Immortal Master thought that the child must have a serious illness.

“Do you want to go to Jiuzhou with me, or stay here?”

Going to Jiuzhou would certainly offer better development, but Yu Feng couldn’t bear to leave. Only mortals were left here. He and his senior sister were the only two cultivators. After they left, this place would become a completely mortal world.

Yu Feng wanted to stay here, teach the methods of cultivation, and reshape the atmosphere.

Jiuzhou was his role model.

“Senior Jiang, I want to go to Jiuzhou to thank my masters in person, then further my studies there. Once I’ve mastered the art, I’ll return here to teach mortals how to cultivate!”

“Grateful and repaying kindness—not bad,” Jiang Li smiled, feeling confident he hadn’t misjudged him.

“But you don’t have to go to Jiuzhou to see your masters. You can see them now.”

Jiang Li flashed, revealing the passageway constructed by the Brahma Tower.

The Master of the Spiritual Medicine Sect, the Master of the Beast Taming Sect, the Master of the Luban Sect… countless cultivators in the Fusion Stage passed through the passageway and arrived in the Tonggu World.
