Chapter 0311: 0311
Half a year went by quickly . The story of Wu Yu's disappearance and return had spread far and wide within the Common Sword Domain, and there was basically not a single soul who had not heard about it . This had solidified Wu Yu's number one position on the Leaderboard of Swords and Immortals beyond any further doubt .
Logically speaking, Nangong Wei would have heard the news about him after she returned from the Shushan Reincarnation Realm .
This led Wu Yu to naturally conclude that she was somehow still in the Shushan Reincarnation Realm .
"There's no point in waiting just like this . Let me go to the Huang sword domain . Perhaps she went there to ask about my whereabouts . "
With such a thought, Wu Yu got up and prepared to leave . With a nonchalant wave of his hand, the 10 doppelgangers leapt in the air and transformed back to golden strands of hair hidden on Wu Yu's head . Onlookers would have no way of noticing them at all .
"Sixth tier Jindan . Presently, my Jindan essence closes in on the eighth tier of Jindan . "
The fearsome power of the Invincible Vajra Body and the Great Way of Immortality Art had revealed themselves gradually over time, and had led him to feel quite extraordinary .
After leaving Heaven's Equal Peak, Wu Yu first went to seek out Baili Feihong . He wanted to be promoted to a Huang sword rank disciple, thus he needed the hall master to guide him . Baili Feihong held both the positions of palace and hall master, thus he had to be the one to lead him to the Immortal Ascension Hall .
"Wu Yu, what a rare appearance!" Wu Yu found Baili Feihong reclining in an icy stream . His face was flushed red from drinking .
Baili Feihong was always too relaxed . Without any care in the world, he spent his entire day making merry with food and drink, as though he had no interest in progressing towards the Violet Kingdom of the Inner Sea Realm at all .
"Palace Master Baili, today I wish to go to the Immortal Ascension Hall in order to be promoted to a Huang sword rank disciple . " Wu Yu cupped his hands in salute .
"You made it? Haha, looks like my work here is done . Give me a moment to wash up, then we can leave . " Baili Feihong leapt from the icy waters . With the use of Purification incantation and other Unorthodox Arts, he adorned a new sword lanyard and transformed into an elegant-looking dandy in an instant .
Shen Xingyu had placed Wu Yu under his care . Now that Wu Yu was going to the Clear Sky of Shushan, this was surely the end of that .
"Let's go . Being able to send you, Wu Yu, to the Immortal Ascension Hall is a great honor to me . Hehe . " Despite his different appearance, Baili Feihong's lackadaisical attitude still shone through .
Wu Yu slightly smiled and mounted his sword to follow him towards the Immortal Ascension Hall . The Immortal Ascension Hall was actually very close by . The Battle Sword Palace was in the most convenient location of the Common Sword Domain after all .
"I couldn't tell . You've not only learned a new Great Dao Mystique, but have also developed your Jindan to the sixth tier? Not bad at all . With your talent, I'm sure that the Huang sword domain will tell legends of you in no time at all," Baili Feihong remarked with confidence .
"Thanks for the compliment . "
Not long after, they arrived before the Immortal Ascension Hall .
If a disciple met the necessary prerequisites and wanted to become a Huang sword rank disciple at the Clear Sky of Shushan, they had to first visit the Immortal Ascension Hall . After passing the trials at the Immortal Ascension Hall, they would be able to upgrade their normal Disciple Amulet to a Huang sword rank Disciple Amulet . This would allow them to enter the Huang sword domain . Without this Disciple Amulet, unauthorized entry into the Huang sword domain would just lead to one being kicked out immediately .
There was a huge chasm at the foot of the Clear Sky of Shushan .
The Immortal Ascension Hall was at the foot of the mountain . Behind it was a path that led up the Clear Sky of Shushan .
The Immortal Ascension Hall was formed by a dense concentration of swords and knives without their hilts . Its imposing, magnificent presence was ample with sword qi, so disciples who were here could not help but lower their heads in deference . From afar, the hall looked like a giant metal beast .
Merely being able to enter the Immortal Ascension Hall was already a great honor .
As he stood at the entrance to the Immortal Ascension Hall, Wu Yu could not help but notice something else . The peaks of the neighboring mountains were almost completely covered with clouds . Among these mountains, there was one with a pristine, white palace that seemed to fade in and out of existence . Around this remarkable palace circled Immortal Cranes and other spiritual beasts . Flowers with snow-like petals blossomed across the peak of this mountain, giving the impression that this was a place of romance .
"Why are you looking at the Immortal Pair Hall? Kid, missing your youthful days?" Baili Feihong teased .
"That's the Immortal Pair Hall?"
Wu Yu took a few more looks as he recalled Nangong Wei's parting words to him .
"Let's go, follow me in . " Baili Feihong landed . Together with Wu Yu, he stepped up the sharp blades that made up the stairs leading up to the Immortal Ascension Hall . After walking up one step at a time, the majestic main doors of the hall came into view . As they both pushed the doors to enter, the brightly lit interior revealed itself to them . This was a world of its own . The walls were formed by heaps of swords blades, and the entire Immortal Ascension Hall had a heavy atmosphere of sword qi . Even Baili Feihong wore a serious expression as he entered .
In this large hall, there were only people in the far distance . In the furthest spot stood a raised desk . The person behind it was most likely the palace master . Right below him were 10 smaller desks with a person seated at each one . These 10 were probably attendants of the Immortal Ascension Hall as well . Other than them, there were a handful of others around . These were most likely disciples like Wu Yu . After cultivating their Great Dao Mystiques, they were preparing to ascend to the Huang sword rank .
"The palace master of the Immortal Ascension Hall is known as Li Yijun . He's considered an honest and incorruptible man, but I'm sure he won't give you any trouble regardless," Baili Feihong whispered to Wu Yu .
Wu Yu glanced at the man who was seated at the highest desk . He wore a sword lanyard and had short hair . Despite his expressionless face, he exuded an imposing presence . In the mortal world, this was exactly how one would expect a tyrant to look like .
"Why?" Wu Yu asked .
He guessed that this Li Yijun was an Earth sword rank disciple . Perhaps he was even at the Violet Kingdom of the Inner Sea Realm as well .
Baili Feihong smirked and replied, "This toad wants to eat the swan meat of Shen Xingyu . Given that Shen Xingyu treats you as a younger brother, I'm sure that he will treat you well by association . "
Sure enough, Baili Feihong was right . When Li Yijun raised his head and noticed Wu Yu, his expression seemed to soften all of a sudden . He raised his hand to signify the current disciples currently undergoing their trials to stop . He came down from his desk and hurried towards Wu Yu swiftly with a face full of smiles . "So it's Wu Yu, the number one on the Leaderboard of Swords and Immortals . I long expected you to attain a mystique and come visit my Immortal Ascension Hall .
"It's an honor to meet you, Li Yijun," Wu Yu replied .
