Book 1, Chapter 4 – Ancient Portal
The Great Universal Dimensional Portal, also called the Dimension Portal, is a legendary portal that was used by ancient immortals to travel between stars.
Without a specific protection talisman for the Great Universal Dimensional Portal, only an Earth Immortal with a perfect Nascent Soul, and those stronger than an Earth Immortal, would have the qualifications to use the Great Universal Dimensional Portal. The result of someone underneath the Earth Immortal realm using this portal would be them getting shredded to pieces by the humongous suction force between the stars.
Not only would their bodies be ripped apart, even their souls would vanish into the void.
Soul disintegration; forever unable to reincarnate. This was the most tragic way to die in the world.
Miao Yuan was proudly looking at Wu Wang while explaining the mysterious features of the Great Universal Dimensional Portal. He kept describing to the three the huge amount of pain they would experience when ripped apart by the ancient portal, as well as the tragic scene of their souls and bodies being torn apart.
Le Xiaobai squinted his eyes. His eyeballs rolled around, he was trying to calculate the chances of them turning this situation around.
But no matter how much Le Xiaobai thought about it and calculated, faced with the immortal abilities of Miao Yuan, every plan he could think of would just be a waste of time.
Wu Qi stared at Miao Yuan while grinding his teeth. Word by word he swore, “If I am able to survive this day, I will kill everyone in your sect in the future!”
Miao Yuan wasn’t bothered by what Wu Qi said. Survive? How could that be possible? The Great Universal Dimensional Portal wasn’t some fake object. Either you were protected by the portal protection talisman, or you were an Earth Immortal with a perfect nascent soul. If you weren’t any of those, then you would without a doubt be ripped apart by the portal, there was no other possibility.
As for Wu Wang, he was staring at Shangguan Ye with a grin, “Sect Elder Token, do you not want it anymore? If you vow that you’ll let Wu Qi and Xiaobai go, I’ll give you the token!”
Shangguan Ye turned his head with a snort, then he teased, “The Underhand Sect is already mine, what’s the point of having a token? I’ve never really care about it. With it, I’m the Sect Elder. Without it, I’m still the Sect Elder.
Patting his own shoulders in a mocking manner, Shangguan Ye stared at Wu Wang with a sincere look and said, “I don’t possess those legendary qi meridians. The old story about the token’s function wouldn’t work on me, so why would I let go of two of my enemies just for something that is impossible?”
Wu Wang let out a long sigh and shook his head helplessly.
The Great Universal Dimensional Portal had been activated. 360 jade plates were moving in circles around the golden platform, and streams of light were being shot out from them, filling the huge sphere shaped space with dazzling lights. Massive pressure was being emitted from the portal, forcing Shangguan Ye and the other disciples of the Underhand Sect to keep moving back. Only Miao Yuan and the eight other priests were able to withstand the pressure, with great effort.
[TL: Actually, a more accurate translation would be daoists. I chose priests last chapter, as it sounded better, but I forgot to include a TL note.]
When the golden platform unleashed a layer of golden light, it immediately covered Wu Wang and the other two. A bright, golden talisman appeared in one of Miao Yuan’s hands. He then aimed it at the Great Universal Dimensional Portal.
Seemingly being able to sense Wu Wang and the rest’s puzzled expressions, Miao Yuan started explaining the origin of this talisman with a smile.
“Several months ago, in the grand ancestral worship ceremony of the Green Mountain Sect, a few legendary patriarchs who had entered the immortal realm awarded some cultivation scrolls. At the back of those scrolls there were nine Grand Heavenly Positioning Talismans.”
“The patriarchs of the Green Mountain Sect were told that some evil demons had constructed a Great Universal Dimensional Portal in the mortal realm with the intentions of using it to travel freely between the mortal realm and the demon realm. This led to conspiracy theories which could cause trouble for the immortals. Therefore, they requested the disciples of the mortal realm to find out where this portal was, and then use the Grand Heavenly Positioning Talismans to find out where it led.”
“As long as they could find the destination of the portal, the patriarchs of the Green Mountain Sect would strike that destination with full force, destroying all possibilities of a disaster.”
“Recorded within the Grand Heavenly Positioning Talismans, is the positions of all the stars in the universee were recorded. As long as the demons activated the it, the positioning talismans would be able to find the portal’s final destination and transmit that position to the patriarchs of the Green Mountain Sect.”
Wu Qi carefully listened to Miao Yuan’s explanation. The patriarchs of the Green Mountain Sect were now his enemies.
As for Le Xiaobai, he was looking at Miao Yuan with surprise, “Immortals are real? Devils and demons are real? Are you sure the things you obtained in the worship ceremony weren’t just random objects made by a group of fake priests suffering from hysteria?”
Miao Yuan started boiling with rage, he raised his hand up high while still holding onto the glowing Grand Heavenly Positioning Talisman; he stared at Le Xiaobai and scolded, “Ridiculous! Among the patriarchs of the Green Mountain Sect, of course there’s someone who has broken through this realm and entered the immortal realm! Hysteria? Bullshit! What kind of hysterical disorders can construct this Great Universal Dimensional Portal?”
Le Xiaobai shut his mouth. He stared at the jade plates that were circulating around him with great speed, he couldn’t find any words to say.
The portal was circulating with great speed, and the pressure from the surroundings was becoming greater. Every single bone in the bodies of the three were making cracking sounds. The Grand Universal Dimensional Portal really deserved its reputation. It was the transportation tool of immortals, not something a mortal could withstand. This was especially true for the weakest one among the three, Le Xiaobai. He began to bleed from all orifices, and his body had lost all its strength, so he could only lay on the platform immobile.
Miao Yuan smiled scornfully. This was only the initial pressure they would feel when the portal started its launch. When the portal started the transmitting process, that’s the time when Le Xiaobai and the other two’s soul would start disintegrating.
Shangguan Ye looked at Le Xiaobai who was bleeding from all orifices. He felt joyful seeing this.
This was the little peacock who had planned everything for Wu Wang. He helped Wu Wang form a huge power network in the Underhand Sect in just a few years. He even helped him overtake Shangguan Ye who was the son of the previous Sect Elder. If it wasn’t for Le Xiaobai, Shangguan Ye believed that he could have fought with Wu Wang without losing so terribly those few months back. He had lost everything he had to fight back.
Luckily, he had leaned towards the right man.
Glancing respectfully at the trembling Miao Yuan, Shangguan Ye breathed a sigh of relief.
