In the north, the Black Tortoise Continent is the coldest place throughout the Four Symbols Continent.

Almost the entire expansive land is frozen year-round, with only two short months of warmth each year, and the rest of the time is spent in the cold.

Beyond Heaven, one of the top four sects on the Four Symbols Continent, is located in this bitter cold land.

Therefore, the cultivators of Beyond Heaven are mostly ascetics.

They are peaceful and rarely interfere with worldly matters. Among the four sects including Lone City Sword and Beyond Heaven Immortal, which are known for their low profiles, the most low-key is definitely Beyond Heaven.

There seems to be no tale about Beyond Heaven throughout the entire Four Symbols Continent.

As a result, many people doubt whether this sect truly exists.

However, there are certainly connections between the Four Great Sects.

They cultivate in this bitter cold place day after day, but their communication is not cut off.

Moreover, someone from the Azure Dragon in the south has ascended in broad daylight. This event could deceive ordinary people, but how could it deceive them?

Thus, at the summit of a towering ice mountain, many people crawled out from everywhere on the mountain and quietly watched the distant southern sky when Demon Lord ascended.

After watching for a while, they all returned without sharing a word.

There was not even a sigh of admiration.

Truly, the most low-key sect in the world deserves respect.

...…

In the far west of the Azure Dragon Continent, waves lap against the shore and a few seagulls occasionally cry.

A peaceful and tranquil atmosphere prevails between heaven and earth.

About several tens of miles away from the seashore, within a group of mountains resembling a paradise on earth, was where the Immortal was located.

Almost everyone came out of their houses to watch the shocking scene in the sky.

Although the individuals from the Lone City Sword and Beyond Heaven, the three detached sects, could sense someone ascending, they were too far away to truly see the view of the Demon Lord ascending.

But the Immortal could!

Despite the thousands of miles between them, they could see the extraordinary scene in heaven and earth when the Demon Lord ascended clearly.

At the beginning, clouds tumbled across the sky, the dark clouds covered tens of thousands of miles, and thunder roared in the sky, just like the end of the world.

This was the real Heavenly Tribulation, a sight that hasn't been seen for many years.

Some young disciples didn't even know what the Heavenly Tribulation looked like until they saw it with their own eyes this time.

"My God… Is this the Heavenly Tribulation of ascension?" A young female disciple of Immortal mumbled.

"Why is it so fast? Did someone fail the tribulation?" Standing together, Shen Xingxue and Miaoniang looked at the rapidly gathering and disappearing tribulation clouds in the sky and Miaoniang asked with some worry.

"It probably didn't fail. Or maybe the one who was ascending was so strong that they broke through the Heavenly Tribulation in an instant…" Shen Xingxue knew what Miaoniang was worried about and softly responded.

At this moment, Shen Aobing stepped out from her cultivation site, looking at the strange phenomenon in the sky. A complex and indescribable expression appeared on her face, the person... indeed was more powerful than she had imagined.

Every time she recalled that day in Yanhuang City, the young boy's disdainful tone when he spoke to her, Shen Aobing's face would feel a burning sensation.

Feeling that she, a respected Immortal leader, a true unparalleled girl of heaven, a twenty-something level nine Heavenly Heart Realm cultivator... a figure with countless honors added to her, was actually looked down upon by a brat, and she couldn't do anything about it, this was truly an infuriating matter.

Now, his Master has finally ascended!

No need to guess, Shen Aobing knew who the ascendant was.

It seemed as though she could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The next time she encountered the impolite boy, she could have a good go at him!

However, for some reason, Shen Aobing felt a sense of emptiness in her heart. It was as if something she cared much about was... worthless in the eyes of others.

"I've been worried the whole time about them coming over to cause trouble, but from start to finish, they didn't even respond to me…" Shen Aobing felt a bit of embarrassment and loss in her heart. In fact, deep within her heart, there was a slight desire to meet Chu Mo's mysterious Master once.

After all, even hearing a few pointers from such a high-level figure would be greatly beneficial.

"Perhaps, I don't have that kind of opportunity…" Said Shen Aobing softly. Shortly after, she glanced at Miao Yi Niang and Shen Xingxue in the distance, revealing a gratified look in her eyes.

Shen Xingxue was her niece, she was innately gifted, and in the field of elixir refining, she displayed the aura of a Grandmaster at a young age. Although her current realm wasn't impressive, Shen Aobing was very clear that one day, as long as Shen Xingxue took that step, then directly advancing through elixirs... ascending in daylight, wasn't impossible!

What delighted Shen Aobing the most was Miao Yi Niang!

This fully matured, young lady was originally introduced to her by Shen Xingxue. After seeing Miao Yi Niang in person, she was moved by her talent and thought of cultivating her into a disciple that could navigate the mundane world.

Even though Immortals technically renounce worldly life, it's necessary to have someone to handle their multitude of affairs.

Unexpectedly, the surprise Miao Yi Niang gave her was far beyond her imagination!

After taking an elixir and directly advancing to the Metal-Stone Realm, she hasn't been affected by the breakthrough of the elixir at all. Her strength continues to rapidly progress!

Especially during this period of time, under her careful guidance, Miao Yi Niang's strength has vaguely approached the feeling of the Understanding Heart Realm!

This was a tremendous surprise!

Age-wise, she wasn't much older than Miao Yi Niang, and relation-wise, they were officially master and disciple, but their way of interaction was like sisters.

You could even say, Shen Aobing was increasingly fond of Miao Yi Niang!

Sometime back, a suitor from Lonely City had come knocking, setting his eyes on Miao Yi Niang. At first, Shen Aobing was slightly moved, but now... even without considering Chu Mo's reaction, Shen Aobing doesn't entertain it at all.

Such an excellent disciple who could potentially break into the Innate Realm in the future, how could she let go of her so easily?

However... Chu Mo, that little brat, had a huge influence on Miao Yi Niang!

"God forbid, if that kid really comes to propose to Miao Yi Niang one day, I'm afraid she will immediately go with him unhesitatingly! Just like the fool my sister was back then…" Shen Aobing thought, showing a grim expression. In her heart, she wondered: Now his Master has ascended, should I find an opportunity?... But that doesn't seem to be the best thing to do, it somehow violates my principles. After all, he hasn't provoked me yet... Let's let him off this time! But, kid, you better not test my patience.

The Lone City Sword and Beyond Heaven – the four top sects sitting on the pinnacle of the Four Symbols Continent – all had different responses to this.

Similarly, other sects on the Four Symbols Continent had different reactions as well.

The most ubiquitous voice would be, "That kid's Master... has he finally ascended? I've been waiting for this day! Unexpectedly... he came so rapidly!"

At this point, Chu Mo had already returned to the military camp.
