A tall peak stood amidst the vast plains.
Radiance illuminated the peak, illuminating day and night, causing the surrounding heavens and earth to be as bright as day.
In the distant horizon, a figure suddenly flickered. As she neared, her appearance was revealed. It was a white-clothed woman, her eyes gentle and intelligent with a hint of craftiness hidden within. Her features were elegant beyond compare, resembling the beauty of the heavens and earth.
As the white-clothed woman neared that radiant peak, a voice resounded from the peak, “Junior apprentice-sister Meng.”
A path of radiance extended from the peak, seemingly condensing into a tangible form.
The white-clothed woman stepped onto that path of radiance before the radiance retracted, bringing her along to the peak of the mountain.
After passing through the protective restrictions of the guardian grand formation, the radiance before her instead dissipated. What appeared before her was a majestic cluster of buildings.
Figures moved about amidst the buildings, looking like they were surging upwards, yet not losing their steadiness. Seeing the white-clothed woman, everyone bowed and greeted her in an orderly manner.
The woman was not unfamiliar with this place as she smiled and nodded in greeting.
There were naturally people who received her respectfully, leading her into the great hall at the peak of the mountain.
Within the great hall, a white-clothed man smiled, “We are about to leave together. We have not prepared a grand welcome for you.”
The woman similarly smiled, “Of course. No need to stand on ceremony with me, senior apprentice-brother Tang.”
The ‘senior apprentice-brother Tang’ she spoke of was an indisputably imposing man with handsome features.
It was just that his aura was a little hard to fathom. He looked like a deep abyss, as majestic as the high mountains and the great earth, yet also as sharp as an unsheathed sword.
Looking at his appearance, it was hard to judge his age as well. While he seemed to be a steady and honest middle-aged man in his forties, he also seemed to be in his early twenties, sharp and valiant.
Still, if martial practitioners of the Eight Extremities World of the past saw this man’s features, they would undoubtedly be able to recognise him.
Tang Yonghao.
He had once been the most outstanding genius of the Sacred Sun Clan’s younger generation of the Eight Extremities World. Afterwards, having come to the World beyond Worlds, he had obtained the phoenix bone by chance and finally been accepted by the Southeastern Exalt Cao Jie of the World beyond Worlds, becoming his final disciple.
As time passed, several decades had already passed since then.
The white-clothed woman before him was naturally Meng Wan who had once been a disciple of the Sacred Sun Clan of the Eight Extremities World.
Meng Wan was the second daughter of the World beyond Worlds’ Brocade Emperor, Fu Yunchi. They had been separated at a young age, only reuniting with each other in the World beyond Worlds afterwards.
However, although the father and daughter recognized each other, she did not change her surname to Fu and still used Meng Wan as her name. Fu Yunchi did not mind this and still doted on her. Now, everyone knew that they were father and daughter.
Therefore, Tang Yonghao still called her “Junior Sister Meng”.
“If you don’t need to rest, let’s go to Golden Court Mountain now,” said Tang Yonghao.
“Of course, I’ll leave immediately.”
Meng Wan answered, “If not for waiting for me to go with you, Senior Brother Tang, you would have gone to Golden Court Mountain long ago. It is a joyous occasion for your Master to open the door of immortality.”
Tang Yonghao nodded. “Yes.”
In the past, Yan Zhaoge had reversed the situation and moved more than half of the World beyond Worlds into the Pill Hall, escaping from the Dao universe.
At that time, the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory, Southeastern Yang Heaven Territory, Northeastern Sky Heaven Territory, Southern Blazing Heaven Territory and Southwestern Vermillion Heaven Territory of the Dao universe’s World beyond Worlds, along with a portion of the central Jun Heaven Territory, had left the World beyond Worlds.
Twenty years later, the Roving Jade Heavens entered the Pill Hall as well. Yan Zhaoge ascended to the Immortal Realm and repeated the feat of establishing a world. He transformed the Pill Hall into the Awakened Sky Cosmos and transformed the territories that separated from the World beyond Worlds into a brand new Sky beyond Skies.
Since then, the Three Clear Lineage’s successors had announced the end of an old era, and the beginning of a new era.
The brand new Beyond Avalon was divided into five wondrous lands.
Part of the World beyond Worlds’ central Jun Heaven Territory and the eastern Vast Heaven Territory formed the central Middle Earth. The core of the Sky beyond Skies, the Broad Creed Mountain Range, was located there. From the south to the north, it almost ran through the entire Middle Earth.
The southeastern Yang Heaven Territory of the World beyond Worlds had been transformed into the East Heaven beyond Skies.
The northeastern Sky Heaven Territory became the Northern Continent, the southern Blazing Heaven Territory became the Southern Continent, and the southwestern Vermillion Heaven Territory became the Western Continent.
Ever since then, the Heaven’s Beyond Territory had stabilized and developed to this day.
The Eight Extremities World, the Vast Ocean World, the Floating Gate World, and the thousands of lower realms were still connected to the Sky beyond Skies’ five lands by the wounds of the sky.
Outside of the Awakened Sky Cosmos, the Immortal Court and the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus were constantly fighting against each other. The Demon Race and the Western Pure Lands were competing against each other, and the Nine Underworlds were fighting for the Great Devil’s revival.
However, the Awakened Sky Cosmos was peaceful and stable.
Ever since Yan Zhaoge and the others returned from searching for the Immortal Trapping Sword, they had been living in seclusion. The Awakened Sky Cosmos became even more peaceful.
Time flowed by, and now, forty-nine years had passed.
The peak that Tang Yonghao and Meng Wan were currently at was located within the Sky beyond Skies’ East Region.
This place was known as the World Illuminating Peak.
This was the Sacred Sun Sect that had just reopened.
Other than a few people and the same martial arts inheritance, there wasn’t much of a relationship between the Sacred Sun Sect and the Sacred Sun Sect.
In the past, the Eight Extremities World’s Sacred Sun Sect had already declined. The stubborn members that fought against the Broad Creed Mountain to the end had all perished. The remaining members had either joined other sects within the Eight Extremities World or concealed their identities.
When Tang Yonghao reopened his sect, there weren’t many people of the same sect left.
For example, Meng Wan’s Sacred Sun Sect’s Master, Chen Mingying, remained in the Turbid Wave Pavilion and never returned. Her situation wasn’t rare.
Their former opponent, the Broad Creed Mountain, had already become an unreachable colossus. Naturally, many people no longer had any thoughts of reviving their sect.
However, Tang Yonghao wasn’t affected. He rebuilt the Sacred Sun Sect from scratch. From the Eight Extremities World until the World beyond Worlds separated and the Sky beyond Skies opened, he brought the Sacred Sun Sect all the way to the Sky beyond Skies and established a foothold there.
Today, the Sacred Sun Sect had already become a famous rising force within the Sky beyond Skies’ East Region.
Of course, the Golden Court Mountain played a part in this.
Tang Yonghao was grateful for his Master, Cao Jie, and the Golden Court Mountain’s benevolence. In his heart, he had already regarded himself as the Golden Court Mountain’s successor.
Now that the Sacred Sun Sect had established a foothold in the Sky beyond Skies, Tang Yonghao had also groomed a new leader for it. He could let go of the sect without any worries.
The Sacred Sun Sect’s relationship with the Golden Court Mountain was naturally not so easily severed. In many people’s eyes, the Sacred Sun Sect was also a subsidiary of the Golden Court Mountain, or even Tang Yonghao’s personal dao arena. However, even if Tang Yonghao returned to the Golden Court Mountain to cultivate in seclusion, the Sacred Sun Sect could still maintain itself and develop itself.
Tang Yonghao was naturally grateful for his Master, Cao Jie’s care.
Hearing Meng Wan congratulating him, he sighed emotionally and said, “Junior apprentice-sister Meng is too polite. My Master has successfully taken this step. I’m naturally very happy.”
“Not to mention the East Region, even in the entire Sky beyond Skies, this is one of the few grand events in recent years.”
