  “These two girls are so good…” Looking at them, Yue Yang said to Hao Zhonghua in a low voice.

  She had no objection to either Xie Yujia or Zhao Yanzi and found them both to be great girls, leaving the choice to Hao Ren.

  They didn’t know that Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia had reached an agreement on this issue, which was why they were getting along so well.

  Hao Ren walked out with Xie Yujia to get hot water and took the opportunity to check on Su Han next door.

  Through the glass on the door, he saw that Su Han was still in a deep sleep while that female cultivator in white guarded her motionlessly.

  Xie Yujia didn’t know that Su Han was lying in the ward that they passed by, and Hao Ren didn’t plan to tell her yet.

  The situation was clear to him; he must obtain the Immortal Elixir from the Queen Mother of the West to save Grandma and Su Han.

  When it was noon, more and more people came to see Grandma.

  The news that Hao Zhonghua’s mom was hospitalized had somehow gotten out, and Hao Zhonghua’s colleagues in the research institute, Yue Yang’s friends in East Ocean City’s science circle, the government officials had come to visit Grandma in the hospital.

  The news also reached the high-level officials in Beijing, and they called Hao Zhonghua, offering to move Grandma to a hospital in Beijing for the best treatment with a private jet.

  Hao Zhonghua had no choice but to decline their kind offers. After placing a desk in front of the ward, he asked some subordinates in his research institute to record the visitors’ names and gifts so that he could return the favors after Grandma recovered.

  “Zhonghua! Zhonghua…”

  Mayor Wu hurried to him with several secretaries.

  Several provincial officials were talking to Hao Zhonghua right now, and they nodded at Mayor Wu when they saw him.

  After greeting them, Mayor Wu dragged Hao Zhonghua to the side and said in a low voice, “Weird ocean currents appeared in the coastal areas, and we need you and Yue Yang to have a look at them.”

  Hao Zhonghua had thought that Mayor Wu had come to revisit Grandma as the mayor of the city. However, seeing the latter’s serious expression, he knew that something big had happened.

  “The helicopter is on the top of the Holiday Hotel, and we can make a quick trip there and come back as soon as possible,” Mayor Wu said.

  “Ok. We’ll go and check on it…” Hao Zhonghua entered the ward and whispered to Yue Yang before coming out with her.

  Zhao Hongyu had driven Zhao Yanzi to school, and Hao Ren, Xie Yujia, and Yue Yang had been with Grandma.

  Seeing Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang exiting the ward in a hurry, they knew that something wasn’t right and came out of the room after them.

  In the corridor, Hao Zhonghua gave some instructions to the nurses and took his leave from the provincial officials before hurrying toward the stairs with Mayor Wu.

  “Little White, take care of Grandma,” Hao Ren instructed Little White with his mind and walked toward the stairs with Xie Yujia.

  With Bai Ze in the hospital and the Heavenly Dragon cultivator in the next ward, Grandma would be safe.

  When Hao Ren and Xie Yujia walked out, they saw Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang getting into Mayor Wu’s car which then drove to the direction of the Holiday Hotel.

  Hao Ren and Xie Yujia looked at each other and walked to a corner to create an energy sphere before flying after the car. Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang had taken themselves away from work to stay with Grandma, and their sudden departure from the hospital meant that something significant had happened.

  On the platform on the top of the Holiday Hotel, a police helicopter was waiting for them. After Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang got into the helicopter with Mayor Wu, it flew toward the direction of East Ocean.

  Hao Ren and Xie Yujia immediately flew above the helicopter.

  From a distance, they saw that a massive vortex was forming in the ocean dozens of kilometers off the shore!

  Traces of black essence were rising from the center of the vortex!

  “Devil essence…” Hao Ren immediately recognized the essence.

  In the sky above the ocean, about six helicopters were hovering and investigating. However, due to the powerful sucking force of the vortex, the helicopters didn’t dare to get too close to the ocean surface.

  All the ships close to the harbors of East Ocean City were not allowed to pass this area. However, the city couldn’t put the detection devices into this vortex that had appeared out of the blue.

  “That is the… the position of the East Ocean Dragon Palace,” Xie Yujia said to Hao Ren in surprise.

  Hao Ren nodded, finally understanding why Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang hadn’t returned to the hospital after driving Zhao Yanzi to school.

  The position where the black essence came out was the East Ocean Dragon Palace!

  “I’ll go and have a look!” Stepping on a sword energy, Hao Ren lowered his head slightly.

  “Don’t!” Xie Yujia immediately held him with both arms.

  Not only mortals but cultivators couldn’t get close to such a vortex!

  For mortals, the vortex swirled so fast that it would suck in everything around it. For cultivators, the devil essence released from the vortex would even erode the energy sphere.

  If the devil essence entered their meridians, no elixir pills could save them!

  Judging the scale of the vortex, Hao Ren guessed that at least half of the East Ocean Dragon Palace had been destroyed. He hoped that the cultivators and soldiers had all evacuated.

  With Grandma and Su Han still lying in the hospital and so much devil essences releasing from the East Ocean Dragon Palace, Hao Ren gritted his teeth and knew that he had only one option before Ya Zi came out and dealt with the situation.

  “Let’s go to Eighth Heaven!” Hao Ren took Xie Yujia’s wrist and shot up into the high sky.

  Nodding, Xie Yujia felt nervous at the thought that she would see Old Grandma again.

  Bang!

  Hao Ren broke through the array formation of Fifth Heaven instantly. Before the cultivators of Fifth Heaven could react, he had immediately broken through the array formation of Sixth Heaven.

  There was a harder array formation between Sixth Heaven and Seventh Heaven. While Hao Ren flew with Xie Yujia, he suddenly turned into a white dragon!

  Xie Yujia was tossed up by Hao Ren and then put on his back.

  Bam! Hao Ren shot through the array formation between Sixth Heaven and Seventh Heaven. While the Soul Formation Realm cultivators on Seventh Heaven were still in astonishment, Hao Ren condensed all the nature essence in his dragon body and broke the array formation between Seventh Heaven and Eighth Heaven!

  Several Nascent Soul Realm cultivators who were patrolling on Eighth Heaven saw a beautiful female cultivator with fluttering long hair dashing into the mist of Eighth Heaven while sitting on a dragon!

  A cultivator was riding on a dragon!

  771 Godly Cloud Dao!!!

  Eighth Heaven… Only metal-elemental dragons were allowed to soar into Eighth Heaven!

  Seeing that the white dragon wasn’t a metal-elemental dragon, the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were about to attack but hesitated at the sight of the female cultivator who was sitting on the back of the white dragon.

  They had never seen a human cultivator who could ride on a dragon! Besides, this female cultivator seemed to be only at the Core Formation Realm!

  In their confusion, they almost thought that Xie Yujia was a cultivator who came to Eighth Heaven from above.

  “Roar…” Hao Ren let out a dragon roar while he took Xie Yujia up into the denser clouds.

  The nature essence intensity on Eighth Heaven far surpassed that in Seventh Heaven; it was almost as abundant as in the Demon Sea!

  The scenery here was even more beautiful than the view on Seventh Heaven!

  Under the heavy clouds, Hao Ren was surprised to see ancient cities. It was a new world!

  H
ua!

  Hao Ren spread his dragon wings and soared on Eighth Heaven!

  His dragon form had all the features of a dragon including scales, wings, horns, and claws!

  He cultivated the five-elemental nature essences at the same time and had the complete five-elemental mystic crystal, which was why he had the full features!

  When Zhao Kuo changed into his dragon form when he was at peak Qian-level during his Heavenly Tribulation, he didn’t have such magnificent dragon wings!

  Sitting on Hao Ren’s back, Xie Yujia felt a thrill when she saw the rivers and mountains sweeping under them while they flew for thousands of kilometers instantly.

  Crack… About a dozen heavenly lightning bolts crashed down from the high sky.

  Although Hao Ren had escaped from the first blockage of the cultivators, he couldn’t dodge the array formation established by the God Cloud Dao on Eighth Heaven. The heavenly lightning bolts hidden in the clouds struck toward Hao Ren’s dragon form since he wasn’t a metal-elemental dragon.

  Hao Ren tumbled his huge dragon body and suddenly changed back to his human form before putting on a long robe swiftly.

  Losing Hao Ren’s support, Xie Yujia fell from the sky. She was about to summon her Ruyi Cloth when Hao Ren caught her and brought her to the ground.

  With the golden shield supporting them, Hao Ren and Xie Yujia landed inside the city.

  Those heavenly lightning bolts shooting from the clouds lost their target and scattered in the high sky.

  Hao Ren had concealed his aura with the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus while Xie Yujia’s Core Formation Realm strength couldn’t activate the heavenly lightning bolts.

  The golden shield was no longer a dharma treasure but a celestial treasure. While it carried Hao Ren and Xie Yujia who showed no nature essence, it wouldn’t allow the heavenly lightning bolts to strike them.

  Swoosh… Dozens of lights gathered in the high sky above the city. They were cultivators of God Cloud Dao who had sensed the auras of trespassing cultivators and came to block them.

  Hao Ren put away the golden shield and looked around.

  It seemed that he and Xie Yujia had gone back in time and appeared in another era.

  It was a bustling place. Young men and women in luxurious clothes strode on the streets while all kinds of horse-drawn carriages traveled on the roads.

  The workers of the restaurants were greeting guests warmly at the gates.

  By the lake not far from them, vendors were selling snacks and candies at stalls.

  On the lake, beautiful boats moved around with silk-robed young men and women chatting with each other.

  Seeing this sight, Hao Ren and Xie Yujia looked at each other and felt like they were in a dream.

  Hao Ren even suspected that he had been trapped by God Cloud Dao’s illusion array formation.

  From Seventh Heaven to Fifth Heaven, they had seen magnificent cultivation sects or villages, but there had never been any cities of this scale.

  In the cities on Eighth Heaven, the people lived happy and prosperous lives; it was unimaginable.

  It was a utopian world.

  Swoosh! Swoosh… Stepping on swords, several cultivators in Taoist robes swept across the low sky.

  “Grandpa! Grandpa!” Looking up at the flying cultivators, a little boy with a braid threw himself into the arms of his grandfather.

  “Hehehe! Little Ye! Don’t be afraid. These are the Celestial Masters of God Cloud Dao who protect us.” The old man patted the head of his grandson and looked at the cultivators respectfully.

  “Grandpa! I want to become a celestial master! I want to protect our Great Liang Dynasty!” the little boy yelled.

  “Haha… Not everyone can become a celestial master… Have you memorized the Three Character Classic that I taught you yesterday?”

  “Grandpa, I’ve memorized it! Even if I can’t become a celestial master, I want to be the Premier of our Great Liang Dynasty! I’ll recite the Three Character Classic for you…”

  “Hahaha! Premier! My grandson will be the premier…”

  Holding his grandson’s hand, the old man laughed and walked away along the wide street paved with green stones.

  Standing under the eaves of a fabric shop, Hao Ren and Xie Yujia looked at each other and understood that they had come to the Great Liang Dynasty.

  The people here didn’t know that they were living on Eighth Heaven or anything about the Tang Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty. They probably had come here from a certain period of Chinese history and branched out by themselves on Eighth Heaven.

  An empire named Great Liang governed the vast territory, and the only thing above this powerful empire was the only cultivation sect - God Cloud Dao.

  “Let’s go!”

  Seeing the cultivators who were searching for them flying away, Hao Ren took Xie Yujia’s hand and flew up lightly.

  “Celestial masters…” the crowd cried out when they saw Hao Ren and Xie Yujia flying up.

  In their minds, all the celestial masters who could cultivate were from the God Cloud Dao, and the cultivators occasionally mingled in with the mortals to monitor the government.

  This was why the mortals admired the God Cloud Dao more than their government.

  Hao Ren flew out of the city with Xie Yujia and headed toward the distant mountains.

  When he was in the clouds, Hao Ren had found that the mortals’ cities were built on land while cultivators’ palaces were built on the high mountains.

  There was a branch of God Cloud Dao on a mountain hundreds of kilometers from this city.

  Hao Ren’s speed was so fast that some low-leveled cultivators who were in governmental official’s uniforms and were flying in the low sky didn’t even notice him.

  Seeing the magnificent buildings of God Cloud Dao concealed in the high mountain, Xie Yujia was a bit excited when she thought that she could see Old Grandma again.

  The land on Eighth Heaven had scarce nature essence. However, the higher they flew, and the closer they got to the mountaintops, the more intense the nature essence got.

  To avoid trouble, Hao Ren hadn’t fought with the cultivators. After dodging those cultivators who were searching for them, Hao Ren took Xie Yujia to find Old Grandma.

  “I’m here to visit Qingfeng Hermit!”

  Holding Xie Yujia’s hand, Hao Ren landed on the square outside of a palace of God Cloud Dao and shouted.

  Since God Cloud Dao controlled the entire Eighth Heaven, these branches naturally didn’t put up any array formation or had any guards. When Hao Ren stood on the white stone square and yelled, he drew out all the cultivators from the nearby palaces.

  When they saw Hao Ren and Xie Yujia standing at the center of the square, they knew that these two strangers were extraordinary since they had come to Eighth Heaven with ease.

  Meanwhile, they were stunned by the name of Qingfeng Hermit.

  These cultivators looked at each other and whispered among themselves.

  If Hao Ren had yelled this name while escaping on Eight Heaven, the cultivators of God Cloud Dao wouldn’t have let him go. However, since Hao Ren called the name ‘Qingfeng Hermit’ after entering the God Cloud Dao, it was…

  Who was Qingfeng Hermit? She was the mother of the new master of God Cloud Dao!

  772 Ascending~

  “Young Masters, please wait a moment.”

  A black-bearded old man flew up from the crowd of cultivators and turned into a dash of light before flying toward the southwest direction on a sword.

  Controlling the entire Eighth Heaven, Godly Cloud Dao had thousands of branches. The branch that Hao Ren and Xie Yujia came to was one of the lowest-leveled branches even though it looked like a magnificent celestial palace to mortals.

  This cultivator was only at top-tier Nascent Soul Realm and didn’t have the qualification to go to the headquarters. He must bring the message to a higher-level branch which was headed by a Soul Formation Realm cultivator who would, in turn, deliver the mess
age to the headquarters.

  No matter if these two young cultivators coming to Eighth Heaven to visit Qingfeng Hermit were friends or foes, the cultivators of Godly Cloud Dao must treat them with respect.

  Usually, even if the cultivators of Seventh Heaven broke onto Eighth Heaven, they would be killed since the Ninth Heaven Godly Lightning which was controlled by Godly Cloud Dao would turn the trespassing cultivators into ashes.

  While the sects on Seventh Heaven had many Core Formation Realm cultivators, the Godly Cloud Dao on Eighth Heaven was full of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators!

  Completely secluded from the outside world, Eighth Heaven was a world managed by a group of immortals.

  Only Soul Formation Realm cultivators could leave Eighth Heaven and tour the outside world.

  It was also the place closest to Ninth Heaven, and it enjoyed the most intense nature essence, abundant resources, and rare spirit beasts. Besides, they were a rare group of cultivators who could ascend!

  The cultivators on and below Seventh Heaven couldn’t ascend to the Heavenly Realm even if they reached the Soul Formation Realm. However, the cultivators on Eighth Heaven could ascend after passing the Heaven Tribulation and getting the acknowledgment from the Heavenly Dao!

  Qingfeng Hermit was a grand cultivator who could ascend but chose not to!

  She had become a sage by moving the force in nature with dharma notes. Even though she didn’t ascend, she was a figure who had achieved Dao!

  While the ancient sages achieved Dao with techniques, Qingfeng Hermit created a way of achieving Dao with dharma notes! It was beyond the imagination of the Godly Cloud Dao cultivators that Qingfeng Hermit’s Life-Death Notes were getting more powerful each day!

  It was said that she would gain the ultimate understanding of the Heavenly Dao and become a real sage after this seclusion cultivation!

  “Bad girl! You even came to visit me on Eighth Heaven!”

  Hao Ren and Xie Yujia had stood on the square for a while when they heard Qingfeng Hermit’s scolding from the high sky.
