Chapter 2443 Finally… Made It!

Whoosh!

Gan Ru Yan disappeared from everyone’s sight in just a blink of an eye with Ke’er’s help.

“What’s happening? Is that female cultivator who’s at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage really her sister?” A Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial asked with a gulp.

“I’m not sure… All non-Bodiless Celestials who are able to enter the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone are definitely less than 100 years of age. If that lady is as strong as a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, it’s not a surprise if she’s the ancestor of the lady at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. How’s it possible that she’s the younger sister of that lady at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?”

Many people were puzzled.

“Is it possible that…” A Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestial speculated at this moment, “the elder sister was reincarnated? Rumor has it that there’s a special technique in Dao Martial Saint Land that allows one to reincarnate.”

“You’re saying that the lady at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage was reincarnated to this era from close to 10,000 years ago?”

“Yes. Otherwise, how’s it possible for the Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial Stage to address her as elder sister?”

Everyone fell silent when they heard the Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestial’s words. They had also heard of the rumors of people being reincarnated, but most of them regarded it as a hoax or just a myth.

In fact, Duan Ling Tian had experienced reincarnation as well through the extraordinary technique, the Three Lives Rebirth Technique, from the Rebirth Martial Emperor on Cloud Continent. It was a rare technique even in the Dao Martial Saint Land.

“Although it seems far-fetched, it’s the only plausible explanation.”

“True. After all, it’s even more far-fetched to believe that the lady is a cultivator who’s younger than 100 years old possesses strength comparable to a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial without the help of any Celestial Supreme Treasure…”

“I agree.”

…

Meanwhile, Gan Ru Yan was unaware that those people had concluded that she had been reincarnated. At this moment, she was brought to a quiet and deserted valley filled with flowers and birds by Ke’er.

Ke’er looked at Gan Ru Yan and said, “Sister, I know that you have a lot of questions. I’ll answer your questions, but I hope you’ll keep this a secret from Brother Ling Tian. I don’t want him to worry.”

“I promise I’ll keep it to myself so please tell me.” Gan Ru Yan felt a slight tremor in her heart when she heard Ke’er’s words. She had a hunch that the method her sister used to increase her strength was extremely dangerous. Otherwise, her sister would not have asked her to keep it secret. As she listened to her sister’s explanation, her expression changed drastically.

Gan Ru Yan asked in shock, “You burned your soul and recovered memories from your previous life, and at the same time, your strength increased? Somehow, you avoided the Celestial Ascension Tribulation when you’re burning your soul, and your strength is currently comparable to a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?” After listening to Ke’er’s account of what happened, she could imagine the excruciating pain Ke’er had to endure by burning her soul.

A bitter smile appeared on Gan Ru Yan’s face as tears streamed down her face. She felt her heart ache for her sister. “Ke’er, is this necessary?”

“Elder sister, I don’t want to be a burden to him.” Ke’er’s reply was simple. Naturally, the ‘him’ she was referring to was Duan Ling Tian.

“You silly girl,” Gan Ru Yan muttered when she heard Ke’er’s reply and saw the brilliant smile on Ke’er’s face when she spoke about Duan Ling Tian. In her opinion, her sister was being incredibly foolish.

Ke’er quickly changed the topic. “Elder sister, did you just enter the secret zone?”

“Yes!” Gan Ru Yan nodded. “As soon as I entered, I saw the group of people fighting for the Celestial Supreme Treasure.” As she spoke, she looked at the crescent Celestial Saber in her hands. Earlier, it did not matter to her who would ultimately possess the Celestial Supreme Treasure. After all, she knew she was not strong enough to contend for the Celestial Supreme Treasure. Who knew, in the end, the crescent Celestial Supreme Treasure would end up in her possession?

“Then, you must already know this is not the Sword Saint Secret Zone left by Senior Feng Qing Yang, right?” Ke’er asked.

“What?!” Gan Ru Yan was stunned by Ke’er’s words. This was not the Sword Saint Secret Zone. “Then, what’s this place?” She did not doubt her sister’s words.

“This place is called the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone…” Ke’er told Gan Ru Yan everything she knew about the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone that she had learned in the past year.

“This Beyond Heaven Secret Zone is connected to five mundane realms? There are only a few of us from the Saint Province Realm in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone, and the others are from the four mundane realms? Moreover, the other four mundane realms are large mundane realms, and our realm is just a small one?” Gan Ru Yan felt as though her horizon had broadened when she heard Ke’er’s words. She was shocked by Ke’er’s words. “Apart from that, Eminent Celestials below 100 years of age aren’t that rare in those large mundane realms. Moreover, some of them are as strong as Five or Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestials?”

Realization suddenly dawned on Gan Ru Yan. “I see. So those Bodiless Celestials who were fighting for the Celestial Supreme Treasure earlier are from the other mundane realms!”

It had to be said that Gan Ru Yan was really lucky that Ke’er found her almost immediately as soon as she entered the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone. After all, with her cultivation base at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, it would be difficult for her to survive in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone.

…

Time flew by swiftly and another year passed by in just a blink of an eye.

At this time, many of the weaker Bodiless Celestials left one after another. Apart from those who stayed for the excitement, the stronger Bodiless Celestials remained in the secret zone and patiently waited outside the heaven-rank treasure vault that was left by Li Bai, the Green Lotus Sword Celestial. After all, they had already confirmed a year ago that the three youths inside the heaven-rank treasure vault had obtained the Celestial Supreme Treasure. All they needed to do was wait for the three youths to come out to snatch the Celestial Supreme Treasure away.

“That two young men and that young girl… Are they planning to stay in there for eight or nine more years?” A Bodiless Celestial said with a frown on his face.

“It’s fine if they plan to stay for another eight to nine years. I’ll patiently wait until they come out. After all, they’ll have to come out eventually unless they plan to die in there!” Another Bodiless Celestial said.

Those who entered the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone would gain the innate ability to sense the point of entrance and exit to their respective mundane realm after three years. The secret zone would stay open for ten years. If a person did not leave when the ten years were up, they would be trapped in the secret zone. They would have to wait until the next time the secret zone opened to leave, provided they were able to survive that long. Even if they managed to survive, who knew what their mental state would be like? Moreover, in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone, one would not be able to attract the Heavenly Tribulation and ascend to a Devata Realm. One’s cultivation base would stay stagnant in here. This was a fate worse than death for most people. Knowing this, how could anyone willingly trap themselves in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone?

A Bodiless Celestial suddenly said at this moment, “I only want a Celestial Sword. I’m not interested in other treasures…”

However, no one paid him any attention. After all, it depended on one’s ability whether one could obtain the Celestial Sword once the three youth exited the heaven-rank treasure vault.

…

In the heaven-rank treasure vault left behind by Li Bai, the Green Lotus Hermit.

Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!

The faint sound of sword howling in the air rang in a lavishly decorated hall.

A purple-clad young man could be seen sitting cross-legged in the air in a spherical light shield formed by tens of thousands of flying swords.

Meanwhile, a beautiful girl and a young man were sitting in a corner each, cultivating.

Suddenly.

Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!

The sound of sword howling in the air turned louder all of a sudden as the swords surrounding the purple-clad young man revolved at an even faster speed.

Just as quickly as the sound had increased, everything suddenly fell silent as though time had frozen.

Boom!

In the next moment, a thunderous and earth-shattering explosion rang in the air as the light shield formed by the swords exploded.

The purple-clad young man who was sitting crossed legged in midair as though he was meditating like a monk suddenly opened his eyes after the shockwave from the explosion subsided. A brilliant smile appeared on his face as he said, “Finally! I did it!”
