Chapter 640: Big Fur Seal (1/2)

The golden tree faded away, but many still reeled from or savored the awe-inspiring sight.

“Who was it?!” growled the Exalted celestial emperor. “Their phenomenon of ascension spanned the entire world… Investigate! We must find out who that was!”

What they’d witnessed weighed heavily on them. The bigger the phenomenon, the greater one’s potential, and the higher the heights they would reach.

How talented must the cultivator be for their phenomenon to cover the entire world and beyond? The ramifications were beyond their imaginations. More importantly, the phenomenon had originated in Exalted Major!

This led the Exalted immortals to believe that someone had seized the opening when everyone was focused on Zhao Wushuang’s tribulation to overcome theirs without being disturbed, making fools out of them all.

Hum.

To their great surprise, a cyan beam of light suddenly erupted from the center of the Divine Sea and projected an image that shadowed every facet of the world as well!

However, it slightly paled in comparison to the golden tree from earlier. While this phenomenon of ascension reached all twenty-four facets of the world, it didn’t reach the four seas connecting them.

“Zhao Wushuang’s ascended to immortality? How did he defeat the terrifying tribulation beast?!”

“How is this possible?!” The Primus and Enlightened celestial emperors were dumbfounded. With the phenomenon of ascension manifested, they wouldn’t be able to hurt Zhao Wushuang even if their true selves were present.

Moreover, they were in Exalted Major, and Zhao Wushuang was the Exalted celestial emperor’s junior brother. The Exalted heavenly army had now gathered, accompanied by many powerful protectors in the major. It was set in stone—Zhao Wushuang had overcome his trial.

Meanwhile, the disguised prince herself was confused. She had no idea why the great chimera had disintegrated so suddenly and entered her body, not as divine tribulation essence, but four beams of light. They seemed to have made something whole inside of her that’d been incomplete before.

As for her phenomenon of ascension...

The images of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise intertwined in midair, foreclaws upraised in support of a luminous orb.

It took a long while for the phenomenon to dissipate. Zhao Wushuang hovered in the air all this time, radiating a strangely imposing aura. She was now a true immortal, one that had ascended from the void realm.

However, she was much more powerful than other void-ascended immortals. Every move of hers contained the power of heaven and earth, and a different kind of force brewed within her.

“Die!” a sudden snarl rang out.

The lakewaters beneath her feet surged as a giant figure rushed out. He possessed the upper body of a human, lower body of a dragon, and deep blue light flickering all over him.

A sea divine!

The most powerful of the sea divines made his move the moment Zhao Wushuang successfully ascended, stabbing at the human’s head with a deadly trident.

“You court death!!” The Exalted celestial emperor widened his eyes so ferociously that the corners threatened to crack.

Mightiest of his tribe, the patriarch of the sea divines was a crippled origin dao immortal. Even the Exalted celestial emperor would have some difficulty defeating him. Having just set foot into immortality, Zhao Wushuang was far from his match. His ambush had almost reached her when—
