Mysterious mirror hanging high

"Oh no, he broke the [Yi Mu Xuan Teng Locking Formation]..."

The two indistinct Divine Transformation cultivators were horrified upon seeing this. The female Divine Transformation cultivator gritted her teeth and said, "When our Master was here, we were both late Divine Transformation cultivators. We could still suppress this beast with the help of the [Yi Mu Xuan Teng Locking Formation]. But after our Master ascended, we two simply couldn't suppress it anymore."

Qiu Dongxuan grinned, summoned his escaping light, and rushed out of Penglai Mountain. He looked up at the sky, his gaze piercing through the thick clouds and the layer of strong winds at the highest heights, looking into the distant and unknown void, his eyes filled with longing...

“Ascension… Ascension…”

"Qiu ascended to heaven today!"

A gleam of light flashed in the eyes of the old man with disheveled hair and beard and tattered robes. A mysterious yellow aura evaporated from his body, transforming into strands of light, which lifted his physical body up and then suddenly rushed into the sky!

Just as Qiu Dongxuan was about to rush into the clouds, countless dark yellow chains transformed from the Penglai earth veins emerged from his body, tightly binding his Dharma body and Nascent Soul Dharma image. Suddenly, a powerful suction force came from the ground that even a God-Transforming Heavenly Monarch could hardly resist, and Qiu Dongxuan's body was firmly locked under the clouds.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Qiu Dongxuan's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the clouds that were so close to him and let out a crazy howl like a wild beast.

The dark yellow chains formed by countless earth veins made strange noises that were too heavy to bear and made people's teeth ache. The entire Zhongzhou area was constantly surging like waves. Countless mountains collapsed, and rivers flowed backwards, creating a doomsday scene.

"good chance!"

The two Divine Transformation cultivators from Penglai Holy Land were overjoyed upon seeing this and quickly said, "Qiu Dongxuan has escaped the range of the Penglai Mountain's protective formation. Quickly seal the formation and don't let him in again..."

As a faint spiritual shield enveloped the entire Penglai Mountain, the two Jindan cultivators breathed a sigh of relief. "Although he is a late-stage Jindan cultivator, the two of us, with the mountain protection formation left by [Penglai Heavenly Monarch] Xiao Buyi, are more than enough to stop this beast!"

Qiu Dongxuan, who was still above the sky, was still trying to fly upwards without giving up. However, he had almost merged with the earth veins of Penglai Immortal Continent by this time, and could not fly very high at all. After trying for a full quarter of an hour, he finally gave up, his eyes cloudy, and two lines of tears flowed.

"Back in the day, Qiu created the [Gentu Dongxuan Spiritual Cultivation Treasure Formation], connecting to the earth veins of the Immortal Continent. His cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds, and his fighting power dominated the world. How proud and ambitious he was! Now, he's trapped in his own trap... How tragic and lamentable!"

"Why, why!"

Qiu Dongxuan pointed at the heavens and cursed, "Damn Heaven! How unfair are you! I, Qiu, am unrivaled in all of Immortal Continent in terms of talent, understanding, opportunity, and foundation, far surpassing my peers. Why can mediocre people who are far inferior to me ascend to heaven, while I, Qiu, must dwell in this lower realm and die in depression!"

"I don't agree!"

"[Yin Yang San Ren], [Tian Heng Zi], [Qi Tian Hua], [Chang Jing Si], [Kan Qing Yin]... Have any of you ascended?"

Qiu Dongxuan's eyes had already turned blood red, and he growled in a low voice, "They all must die, they all must die!"

"what!"

Qiu Dongxuan was full of vigor and magic power. He used the dark yellow chains as weapons and swung them towards the protective formation of Penglai Mountain, making the thin layer of spiritual light shield flicker.

"Oh no! This old man has gone mad!"

The expressions of the two Divine Transformation cultivators in the formation changed. Only after the mountain protection formation was safe and sound did they breathe a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, a Divine Transformation-level mountain protection formation can be broken as long as there is a Divine Transformation cultivator in charge. Even if this beast is a late Divine Transformation cultivator, he can't break it..."

The dark yellow chains hung down, shaking the Penglai Mountain formation. Even though the cultivators in the formation were safe and sound, they all paled in fear when faced with Qiu Dongxuan's terrifying gaze.

After venting for a while, Qiu Dongxuan seemed extremely annoyed when he saw that his methods had not worked. He howled angrily towards the sky for a while, raised a cloud of yellow sand, and fled along the ground, leaving this area.

"gone……"

The Divine Transformation cultivators in the Penglai Mountain formation were still terrified. They exchanged glances, and the male Divine Transformation cultivator among them said, "Qiu Dongxuan's cultivation has reached the late Divine Transformation stage, and he's also connected to the entire [Penglai Immortal Continent]'s earth veins. There's no hope for him to ascend to the immortal realm. I'm afraid he'll commit endless bloodshed here in the future! If we can't suppress this demon, and let him go, won't we be eternally sinners?"

Another person complained, "Master should have found a way to kill him back then! Instead of suppressing him..."

"Master, there's nothing we can do. Qiu Dongxuan's entire Dharma body has been refined into the Xuanhuang Earth Vein, connecting him to the entire Zhongzhou. As long as he's in Zhongzhou, or even in the Penglai realm, he's practically immortal. Unless a cultivator from the [Dongtian Realm] takes action, there's no chance of completely killing him. But where would a cultivator from the lower realms even come from?"

The Divine Transformation male cultivator sighed, "Actually, the best solution is to have Master stay in Penglai and suppress this beast... until his lifespan runs out."

"But Master has finally reached the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. Seeing the bright future of ascending to the upper realms, how could he be willing to waste his years in the lower realms? Ultimately, the safety of Penglai Immortal Continent is nothing compared to the importance of one's own path."

"Being able to suppress it for a few hundred more years is already the most we can do."

"I only regret that our cultivation is still so limited that we cannot fully utilize the suppressive power of the [Yi Mu Xuan Teng Locking Formation]..."

The Divine Transformation female cultivator looked worried. "Qiu Dongxuan has escaped, but because he cannot ascend, he has developed inner demons and often suffers from madness. It is too dangerous. This matter must be notified to the Second Observatory and Third Pavilion immediately so that they can prepare early..."

The Divine Transformation cultivator said in a gentle voice, "Junior Sister, please be at ease. The five sects in Zhongzhou [Two Temples and Three Pavilions] all have Divine Transformation cultivators in charge, so there won't be any major chaos. As for the Six Paths in Zhongzhou... although there is a Divine Transformation formation, not all of them have Divine Transformation cultivators. I'm afraid there might be some danger, but they are originally from the Demonic Path, so there's no need to worry too much."

"As for the other Nascent Soul and Golden Core sects in Penglai Immortal Continent... Qiu Dongxuan is, after all, a Divine Transformation Heavenly Monarch, so he wouldn't lower himself to embarrass them. Of course, if this beast were to go mad and wreak havoc, then it would be his destiny, and there's really nothing we can do about it."

"The most urgent task right now is to contact the five fellow Taoists from the Second Temple and Third Pavilion. They must guard the gates carefully and endure Qiu Dongxuan's current bout of madness. Then, we'll see if there's any way to suppress this beast again..."

The Divine Transformation cultivators were extremely knowledgeable and even more amazing than the Nascent Soul True Lords. They could already travel through the vast universe with their divine thoughts alone. The male Divine Transformation cultivator pinched his fingers and closed his eyes, escaping into the vast universe with his divine thoughts, contacting other Divine Transformation cultivators in Zhongzhou. After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, his expression changing drastically:

"Oh no! The Penglai Holy Land has been closed for a long time, and no one knows about worldly affairs. Fellow Daoist Chang Jingsi from [Jian Ge] has already ascended to heaven!"
