Chapter 4864: Return to the Immortal Realm (No More Today)

In the depths of the Sea of Gui Xu, there was a vast blue expanse of ocean, with not a cloud in the sky and a constant sea breeze.

A streak of green light appeared on the distant horizon and stopped with a flash.

As the light faded, a green, shimmering dragon boat emerged. On its deck stood a thirty-six-story green pavilion, with Wang Changsheng, Ye Haitang, and dozens of other clan members on board, each with a different expression.

Heavenly Dao artifacts were much faster than supreme Dao artifacts. They had been away from Qinglian Immortal Island for over a thousand years.

Along the way, they had encountered many natural restrictions. With Ye Haitang present and a complete set of Heavenly Dao artifacts, they had navigated all dangers without major incident.

"Who knows how long it will take to return to the Immortal Realm!" Ye Haitang said.

No one knew the true extent of the Sea of Gui Xu. Their return to the Immortal Realm this time was an attempt to chart a route for the clan's future travels.

"As long as we don't encounter any dangers, spending more time is fine," Wang Yingjie said.

He currently controlled over three hundred types of Grand Dao. This time returning to the Immortal Realm, Wang Changsheng intended for Wang Yingjie to oversee the Immortal Realm to ensure its safety. Ye Haitang would help set up a Dao formation to seal off the entrance from the Immortal Realm to the Sea of Chaos.

"We want to return to the Immortal Realm safely, but someone won't let us!" Wang Changsheng said, his tone cold.

As soon as he spoke, the sea churned and surged, unleashing colossal waves that reached the sky. An immense waterspout shot up, like a gigantic blue spear, heading straight for Wang Changsheng and his group.

Wang Changsheng raised his right hand, and a Sea-Stabilizing Pearl flew out. After spinning rapidly, it instantly expanded and met the attack.

With a thunderous roar, the waterspout disintegrated, and the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl plunged into the seabed. The sea churned and surged as a red-haired, blue-skinned giant appeared. The giant's head was covered in many wrinkles, and a monstrous aura radiated from him. He held a long blue blade in his hand. Judging by his aura, he was a mid-stage Dao Venerable.

"A mid-stage Dao Venerable!"

Ye Haitang's expression hardened and her breathing grew heavy. She glanced at Wang Changsheng and breathed a sigh of relief.

With Wang Changsheng present, nothing major could go wrong.

Wang Changsheng flicked his sleeve again, and seventeen more Sea-Stabilizing Pearls flew out. They instantly expanded and slammed into the blue giant.

"A complete set of Heavenly Dao artifacts!" the blue giant exclaimed in alarm, his eyes filled with dread. He swung his blade, and an immense blue blade light swept forth, but it was shattered by the seventeen Sea-Stabilizing Pearls.

He threw a punch, and a colossal blue fist flashed out, carrying the power of over a thousand Grand Daos straight towards Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng also threw a punch, and a massive blue fist-shadow met it.

The two fists collided, and the former instantly disintegrated. The blue fist-shadow struck the blue giant, sending him flying backward, spitting out a large mouthful of vital blood, and his aura weakened considerably.

An expression of disbelief appeared on his face as he said, "Supreme Grand Dao."

Sensing that something was wrong, he was about to flee, but the seawater seemed to be frozen in place, unmoving.

A massive blue water dragon lunged forward, instantly appearing before him.

The blue giant swung his blade, shattering the blue water dragon and sending water splashing everywhere.

He felt the world spin before his eyes and found himself above a vast ocean. Wang Changsheng and the others had vanished.

"No, a Dao realm!" the blue giant exclaimed.

Wang Changsheng formed a hand seal, and the sea churned and surged. Massive blue water dragons flew out, carrying the power of over seven hundred Grand Daos, straight towards the blue giant.

At the same time, he controlled the eighteen Sea-Stabilizing Pearls to attack the blue giant.

In the face of absolute power, the blue giant was utterly defenseless. In less than ten breaths, he was crushed into a bloody mess by the Sea-Stabilizing Pearls. Wang Changsheng preserved the giant's soul and performed a soul search.

"It has been to many places, which is good. This saves us time."

"It has been to many places, which is good. This saves us time," Wang Changsheng said.

The blue giant had always lived in the Sea of Gui Xu. He had visited many sea areas and knew where powerful restrictions were located and where terrifying beings resided.

"Uncle, did it not encounter any stronger beings?" Ye Haitang asked curiously.

"Yes, it encountered a late-stage Dao Venerable cultivator, but that was in a very distant place. We just need to go around it," Wang Changsheng said.

He searched the corpse and found a blue storage bracelet. Inside were over a hundred types of Grand Dao origins, all Grand Daos the blue giant had mastered. There were also over a thousand Dao materials and more than seven hundred Dao stones. These were obtained by the blue giant from plundering other Dao Venerables, and all now belonged to Wang Changsheng.

"There's actually a late-stage Dao Venerable cultivator here? How did it manage to escape?" Wang Yingjie was shocked.

"That Dao Venerable had just entered the late-stage Dao Venerable realm. He hadn't mastered any Supreme Grand Dao. That's why it had a chance to escape; otherwise, it would have been killed long ago," Wang Changsheng explained.

He had mastered two Supreme Grand Daos and possessed a complete set of Heavenly Dao artifacts. If he encountered that late-stage Dao Venerable cultivator, Wang Changsheng would not be afraid. He certainly couldn't kill the opponent, but it wouldn't be easy for the opponent to kill him either.

"Even a mid-stage Dao Venerable cultivator is no match for our Ancestor, so the rest of the journey will be much easier," Wang Mengbin said with a smile.

He was returning to the Immortal Realm with Wang Changsheng and would also remain there to guard the entrance to the Sea of Chaos.

Wang Changsheng put away the Dao realm and the Sea-Stabilizing Pearls. He formed a hand seal, and the green dragon boat immediately shone with a dazzling green light, flying into the distance and quickly vanishing into the horizon.

Over five million years later, Wang Changsheng and his group returned to the Immortal Realm. The Sea of Gui Xu had too many restrictions and a large number of powerful cultivators.

On this return journey, they had killed six Dao Venerables—one mid-stage and five early-stage—and even more Dao Ancestors. If not for these beings and restrictions, they could have returned to the Immortal Realm in less than a million years.

Wang Huiming received the report and immediately rushed over.

"Your grandson greets Ancestor! Ancestor, you've finally returned." Wang Huiming said excitedly.

Wang Changsheng and the others had been away for over a billion years. The high-ranking members of the Wang Clan were very worried, thinking that Wang Changsheng and the others had met with an accident.

"Is everything alright within the clan? How is the Immortal Realm now?" Wang Changsheng asked.

"The Immortal Realm is currently experiencing a struggle among countless races, with many powerful Dao Ancestors emerging. However, our Wang Clan remains the strongest force. Your grandson has even become a legend," Wang Huiming said with a smile.

Over a billion years, many changes had occurred in the Immortal Realm. Many new races and forces had emerged. However, the Wang Clan remained the most powerful force. The strength of forces like Zhenhai Palace, Myriad Spirit Sect, the Ni family, the Li family, the Wang (Gong) family, the Lan family, the Ye family, the Cao family, and the Nangong family had greatly increased, and they were staunch supporters of the Wang Clan.

Wang Clan members knew of the existence of Wang Changsheng and the others, but they had become legends. Even Wang Huiming was a legendary figure in the eyes of many younger generations.

Dao Ancestors like Chen Yueying, Lan Fukong, Master Mingren, and Master Miaode had successively entered secluded cultivation, rarely appearing in public, and becoming legendary figures.

Wang Changsheng nodded and said, "Send people to assist Haitang in setting up the Dao formation. Get it set up first."

"Yes, Ancestor," Wang Huiming agreed and immediately sent down orders to select formation masters to cooperate with Ye Haitang in setting up the Dao formation.
