Chapter 670: Chapter 4 Feather Transformation Ritual, the Aura of Tao Chapter 670: Chapter 4 Feather Transformation Ritual, the Aura of Tao “The Golden Que Secret Realm and White Jade Capital Secret Realm are inherited from the same lineage,” Luo Baiyuan continued, “It is said that in the ancient times, they were designed for the immortals to undergo feather transformation.”

“Immortals undergoing feather transformation?” Xu Yinglian frowned and asked, “Haven’t the immortals already undergone the feather transformation?

‘To feather transform and ascend to immortality,’ how can one undergo it again?”

Qiu Changtian did not follow with a question but showed a pensive look.

“Qiong Ying, the ‘feather transformation to ascend to immortality’ from before and the current ‘ascension’ are not the same,” Luo Baiyuan sighed, “Feather transformation, that is to rise to the Immortal Realm.”

“The Immortal Realm?” This time both Qiu Changtian and Xu Yinglian were stunned.

Within the sects, there are common references to the ‘Mortal Realm’ and the ‘Cultivation Realm.’ They refer to the world where the Human Race currently lives, as well as realms like the Eastern Emperor Realm, the Nine Serenities Underworld, and other worlds beyond our own, each independent and spatially unconnected, requiring special methods to traverse between them.

But the “Immortal Realm” Luo Baiyuan mentioned existed only in the records of ancient texts, without any further description-no one ever returned from the Immortal Realm to pen down travelogue describing what the Immortal Realm was like, leading many cultivators to believe that the “Immortal Realm” was just an ideal world made up in fiction.

Yet according to what Luo Baiyuan said, it seemed the Immortal Realm truly did exist.

“These are things that would usually be disclosed to you when you were about to form your Nascent Infant,” Luo Baiyuan said seriously, “If Nascent Soul Cultivators can reach the level of a Heavenly Immortal or higher, then they will undergo a metamorphosis both physically and in soul, and hence unable to continue staying in this current world, but will naturally ascend to the Immortal Realm, known as ‘feather transformation.’

“And now, the Sect Guardian Immortals of the great sects, as well as the Scattered Immortals roaming all over, only stay in this Mortal Realm by using special methods.”

“Why stay in the Mortal World?” Xu Yinglian curiously asked, “If the Immortal Realm truly exists, according to the texts, it should be a sacred place for cultivation, a Daoist paradise, superior to this world in every aspect.”

“Each has their reasons, I guess,” Luo Baiyuan shook his head, “Worried about their Sect, still having attachments to the mortal world, even fear that the Immortal Realm isn’t as good… These aren’t important.

What’s important is that the choice can only be made once.”

“If at the time of ascension one chooses not to ascend and to stay in the Mortal Realm, then when they later regret it, they no longer have the means to undergo feather transformation again.”

So Qiu Changtian immediately understood:

It’s like having the grades to get into Shangqing or Beida, but when it’s time to choose a university, you don’t go; no matter the reason.

A few months later you decide you want to go?

???G?.??

Sorry, admissions are closed!

“It is said that in the ancient times, the Mortal Realm and the Immortal Realm were traversable between each other,” Luo Baiyuan continued, “But then some catastrophe occurred, ripping apart the passage between them.”

“Since then, to go from the Mortal Realm to the Immortal Realm, there have only been two methods left: one is to rely on the Ascension Force for a natural feather transformation; the other is to wait for the time when the Heavenly Spheres align, to undergo the feather transformation ritual once more in the Mortal Realm.

This Golden Que Secret Realm, is one of the keys to the feather transformation ritual…”

“What is the alignment of the Heavenly Spheres?” Qiu Changtian suddenly blurted out.

“I don’t know,” Luo Baiyuan replied, “According to what my master said, it seems to happen once every so often as a great calamity to the world.”

A great calamity to the world?

Qiu Changtian and Xu Yinglian exchanged glances, each reading a trace of unease in the other’s eyes.

“Ah Jing, Ah Jing!” Qiu Changtian hurriedly asked, “What exactly is the alignment of the Heavenly Spheres?”

“This…” The Kunlun Mirror hesitated.

“If you don’t tell me, it’s the same if I go and ask the Ziwei Master,” Qiu Changtian, seeing her waver, immediately struck while the iron was hot, threatening, “Even Sister Luo knows about this, so my master will certainly not keep me in the dark.”

“But if in the end it’s the Ziwei Master and not you who gives me the answer, then I might have to consider whether Kunlun has treated me better, or if our relationship has become closer!”

“Sigh,” the Kunlun Mirror said helplessly, “The alignment of the Heavenly Spheres is a complex matter, I’m not sure how best to explain it to you.”

“To draw an analogy: if the Mortal Realm is the water in a cup, and the Immortal Realm is the air above the water, then the essence of individual Ascension is to accumulate energy and transform oneself from water into air, thus moving from the Mortal Realm within the water to the Immortal Realm within the air,”

“Immortals who linger in the Mortal Realm are like tiny air bubbles dissolved in water, temporarily unable to move on to the Immortal Realm,”

“When the Heavenly Spheres converge, it’s akin to the water in the cup being heated.

After boiling, the tiny dissolved air bubbles can be released into the air, and that’s why immortals set their sights on the Golden Que Secret Realm-to be ‘released’ by this world,”

“Then why is the convergence of the Heavenly Spheres a major catastrophe for the world?” Qiu Changtian asked, puzzled.

“Would you like to live in boiling water?” the Kunlun Mirror countered, “The convergence of the Heavenly Spheres, while lowering the difficulties of Feather Transformation Ascension, will also bring great chaos and destruction to the Mortal Realm,”

“If you don’t mend the sky in time, the future ‘sky leaks’ will occur because the spiritual energy in the Mortal Realm becomes too violent, opening small holes in the weak spots of the Heavenly Dome to release pressure, and damage to the Heavenly Dome will lead to even bigger troubles.” Having said this, the Kunlun Mirror sighed, “Discussing that is pointless; you just need to focus on mending the sky.”

“If the Heavenly Dome does not spring a leak, even if the Heavenly Spheres converge, it won’t lead to the extinction of the Mortal Realm.

As long as your cultivation level and strength are sufficient, you need not fear any great catastrophe,”

After finishing the last sentence, Ah Jing fell silent again, as if she had closed her mouth for good.

“Anyway, I’m not very clear about it either,” Luo Baiyuan sighed, “Master said, these matters are only to be known once one reaches the Nascent Soul Realm.”

“If your realm and cultivation level aren’t sufficient, knowing this will only cause unnecessary fear and worry, adding mental barriers on your path of cultivation,”

Xu Yinglian was disconsolate and speechless, and after a long while, she said:

“In the end, it all comes down to diligent cultivation,”

“Exactly,” Luo Baiyuan said approvingly, “Only by achieving the Dao can one find a chance to live.”

“Senior brother?” Seeing that Qiu Changtian had been lost in thought, Xu Yinglian called out to him.

“You’re making sense,” Qiu Changtian came back to his senses and agreed, “The great catastrophe is too distant, I’m only focused on the present.”

“Since the Sect has decided to take over the Golden Que Secret Realm, we, as true people of Kunlun, must give it our all,”

“Of course,” Luo Baiyuan continued, “Additionally, according to what the Sect Leader said, the inauguration of the Feather Transformation Ritual will not only allow the immortals stranded in the Mortal Realm to undergo Feather Transformation again but the leakage of the celestial spiritual energy will also bring us supreme benefits,”

Supreme benefits?

Qiu Changtian was surprised, that seemed rather exaggerated.

“It contains the essence of the Dao,” Luo Baiyuan added.

This made both of them struggle to keep their composure.

What is the “Dao”?

The Dao is the principle itself.

For example, if Luo Yan had mastered the “Dao of Formations,” then in theory he would have mastered all the formations in the world, reaching the supreme realm of omniscience and omnipotence in the realm of formations.

Even just a whiff of the Dao’s essence is enough to attract countless Nascent Soul Elders in a frantic scramble.

No wonder both the Orthodox Sects and the Demon Cult are eying the Golden Que Secret Realm so greedily!
