I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

Chapter 1023: Chapter 424: Daluo’s Shocking Change, Imperial Cliff Crashes_2 Chapter 1023: Chapter 424: Daluo’s Shocking Change, Imperial Cliff Crashes_2 Upon entering Battle Heaven, Han Yi released the cultivators only after reaching the area outside the Fighting Immortal Platform.

When Han Yi emerged again, he saw not only the disciples of the Beidou Immortal Palace but also another group of cultivators standing mid-air twenty miles away.

Shifting his gaze, he looked towards the side in front of both groups to see a huge Virtual Space suspended in the air.

Within this space, there was a vast, gray stone platform.

Viewing the Virtual Space from his current position, it appeared like an arena floating in mid-air.

However, this arena was actually formed from a semi-open Cave Heaven.

This was the Fighting Immortal Platform.

Speaking of which.

In the Age Candle Immortal Court, there was a similar place known as the Immortal Slaughter Cave Heaven.

Immortal Slaughter Cave Heaven and the Fighting Immortal Platform were of the same nature, both were semi-open Cave Heavens designed to resolve disputes between cultivators.

Initially, Han Yi had planned to find Dai Zhe to settle their differences in the Immortal Slaughter Cave Heaven after his breakthrough to Half-immortal, but to his surprise, by the time he became a Half-immortal, he discovered that Dai Zhe had already surpassed the Half-immortal pinnacle, crossed the Immortal Tribulation, and become a True Immortal, which shocked him.

Even now, he had yet to understand how Dai Zhe had managed to do it.

After emerging, Han Yi heard the telepathic message from Fu Qiong, asking him to move to the front. After informing Si Hongxue and Shen Ping, he flew forward, joined by seventeen other cultivators.

In total, eighteen people, nine Half-immortals and nine Spirit Transformations, flew to stand behind the group of True Immortals.

Next to Han Yi was Bai Yu from White Jade Cliff.

“Doumu Palace will send a Profound Immortal to witness this Douxian Meeting,” Bai Yu said.

“Once the Profound Immortal arrives, the Douxian Meeting will begin,” he continued.

“Han, there are no restrictions on the methods you can use on the Fighting Immortal Platform. Therefore, you must defeat your opponent with the quickest and strongest means possible. Remember not to hold back,” Bai Yu emphasized the rules of the Fighting Immortal Platform, to which Han Yi nodded in understanding; he was already aware of them.

The rule of the Fighting Immortal Platform was that there were no rules. Once entered, unless one died or voluntarily withdrew, there was no other way out.

At the level of Half-immortal, one has many tactics at their disposal, and naturally, Han Yi would not wait for his opponent to act, especially since any method could potentially counter his own, leading to unpredictable consequences.

Seeing that Han Yi was clear on this, Bai Yu said no more and began to meditate in mid-air to recollect his energy, and Han Yi did the same.

And so it went.

Outside the Fighting Immortal Platform, two groups separated by twenty miles of distance were silently waiting. The side belonging to the Beidou Immortal Palace consisted of roughly seven hundred disciples, while the side of the newly established Immortal Palace from Gouchen, the Gouchen Immortal Palace, had more than twelve hundred cultivators.

Two hours later.

Fu Qiong from the Beidou side furrowed his brow, showing a hint of confusion. He knew the Profound Immortal who was to officiate the Douxian Meeting to be punctual, and yet now there was a delay of an hour. Could it be that something urgent had come up?

For a Profound Immortal, being late was incredibly improbable, so Fu Qiong could only speculate that urgent matters were involved.

Yet beneath this sliver of doubt, a strange emotion arose within him, an intuition that came with being a True Immortal.

On the other side, the Purple Cold True Immortal, from the Purple Cold Sect of the Gouchen Realm and now the master of the Gouchen Immortal Palace, shared this puzzlement.

However, like Fu Qiong, he was not impatient; let alone this brief delay—they wouldn’t even harbor negative emotions for a wait of ten years. But the abnormality signaled trouble, and it gave them an uneasy premonition deep within.

Another two hours passed.

A majestic Profound Immortal Aura materialized in the distance and approached the Fighting Immortal Platform at great speed.

As this aura materialized, all the True Immortals and Half-immortals present sensed something amiss. Beneath this grand presence was a chaos and disorder.

In other words, this Profound Immortal must have been injured, and seriously at that, to the point where they could no longer suppress it.

A sweep of Divine Consciousness came by, and both palace masters, Fu Qiong and the Purple Cold Taoist, simultaneously moved forward to receive it.

Within the mere span of ten breaths,
the approaching Profound Immortal’s aura flashed and rapidly retreated. At this point, all cultivators, including Nascent Soul cultivators, were aware that something was terribly wrong.

Indeed.

Once the Profound Immortal departed, Fu Qiong returned, his expression one of extreme alarm. To witness such an emotion on a True Immortal indicated that the incident must be horrific.

His first sentence confirmed the guesses within the cultivators’ hearts.

“The Douxian Meeting is cancelled,” he declared.

After this declaration, Fu Qiong paused as if even he was unsure about the truth of the news he had received. Then he delivered his second statement.

“Emperor Cliff Heaven has collapsed,” he said.

The moment the second sentence fell, the expressions of the cultivators varied. Ordinary sect cultivators like Si Hongxue and Shen Ping appeared confused, not thinking too deeply about the implications.

But the other twelve True Immortals and Half-immortals such as Han Yi, as well as the Spirit Transformation cultivators from within the Immortal Court, felt a chilling horror grip them.

“The Emperor Cliff Heaven of the Daluo thirty-three heavens, has collapsed?” This thought flashed through Han Yi’s mind.

And in front of Fu Qiong, Jian Wusi’s face drastically changed as he was the first to question.

“The Emperor Cliff Heaven has fallen?” he inquired.

“Palace Master, do you realize what you’re saying?” Jian Wusi’s question, heard in a usual context, might seem defiantly incredulous, but no one present paid any mind to this nuance. In their hearts, they shared Jian Wusi’s disbelief, and some even wondered:
Has the Palace Master gone mad?

After all, Emperor Cliff Heaven was one of the thirty-three heavens of Daluo, the Dojo of the Emperor Cliff Immortal Monarch. Although ranked twenty-sixth and not at the forefront, it remained an indispensable part of the Daluo Fairy Court.
