Becoming An Ancestor In Another World From This Day On

382 Sky Ascension Stairs, Path to Ascension

Romo stopped cultivating and woke up from the mystic state.

The tablet in the ancestral hall was still the same. The faint figure floating above the tablet was much more tangible than before. Of course, only Romo had seen such a change. No one else could see Romo, who was the sacred spirit of the Old Ancestor.

“Heavenly Divine Realm…”

Sensing the endless surging power in his body, Romo sighed with emotion. He had not expected this. He had not expected to break through the bottleneck of the Divine Mage realm just like that and advance to the Heavenly Divine Realm! Romo had thought that with a Divine Realm Enlightenment Talisman, he would at most be able to push the progress of his breakthrough by half. He had not expected this Enlightenment Talisman to actually allow him to completely break through the bottleneck of his realm and advance to the Heavenly Divine Realm!

For ordinary cultivation, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it would take more than a thousand years to advance from the Divine Mage realm to the Heavenly Divine Realm. Most Divine Magi would spend thousands of years or even die before they could break through the bottleneck.

As for Romo? In just ten years, he had advanced from the peak of the Divine Mage realm to level-1 of the Heavenly Divine Realm. To have such an extremely fast breakthrough speed, he had the help of the three cultivation insights of the Heavenly Divine Realm which he had obtained ten years ago from the Ghost Deity on the Laha Island. This had reduced the detour in Romo’s self-exploration. Of course, to be able to successfully break through today, the greatest help had come from the Ancestral Protection System and the descendants. The System had provided Romo with the channel for him to exchange the powerful tools he needed, and the descendants had provided Faith Points. Being the intermediary as the System host, he was then able to advance levels as easily as drinking water.

Romo opened the System interface and found that he was only left with a pittance of 800,000 points from the original 10 million Faith Points he had. If his efficiency in breaking through was a little lower, he probably would not be able to break through with this bit of wealth… Fortunately, it was enough. In the process of using 10 million Faith Points to break through the bottleneck of the Divine Mage realm, this was the first time he had sensed that Faith Points were very useful. Using Faith Points to cultivate was more magical than any pill in the world. The efficiency was tens of thousands of times higher!

The most convenient way to increase one’s level was to use the Experience Talismans, but the Experience Talismans could not be used to break through realms. They could only be used to accumulate experience. Even the Divine Realm Enlightenment Talismans could only be used as support. Only Faith Points were the most omnipotent and irreplaceable.

…

After checking his transformation, Romo looked up at the sky and muttered to himself in a daze.

“The Sky Ascension Stairs… the path to ascension… the Sky Ascension Stairs can’t be used anymore?”

Just now, when he had advanced to the realm of the Heavenly Divine Realm, he had sensed the mysterious existence of the nine heavens. It was as if he had ascended to the nine heavens and seen with his own eyes the crumbling stone steps in the void. This was the legendary Sky Ascension Stairs. It was said that at the end of the Sky Ascension Stairs was the heavenly realm! After advancing to the Heavenly Divine Realm, every time he broke through a small bottleneck in his realm, he would be able to summon the Sky Ascension Stairs.

As for ascension, to ascend to the heavenly realm, one had to first transcend the lightning tribulation of ascension. After transcending it, one could ascend to the Sky Ascension Stairs and the heavenly realm! The higher the level of the Heavenly Divine Mage, the greater and more terrifying the heavenly might of the lightning tribulation of ascension.

In ancient times, most Magi would undergo lightning tribulation and ascend to the heavenly realm when they were at the peak of the Heavenly Divine Realm. This was because the higher the level, the greater the confidence in ascending to the heavenly realm. However, after the primordial calamity erupted, no one had been able to ascend to the heavenly realm since the Middle Ages. The Heavenly Divine Magi of the Magic Martial Continent could only stay in this world. Many of them had died in the 10,000-year Heavenly Divine Tribulation.

A Heavenly Divine Mage would basically be unable to die of old age naturally after breaking free from the limit of his lifespan. However, beside this death tribulation, there was also a Heavenly Divine Tribulation of the Heavenly Divine Realm. This 10,000-year Heavenly Divine Tribulation would descend from the heavens every 10,000 years. Its power could not compare to the lightning tribulation of ascension, but it was still so dangerous that one would definitely die. If a Heavenly Divine Mage could survive the Heavenly Divine Tribulation, he would be able to live freely for another 10,000 years. If he could not survive the Heavenly Divine Tribulation, then everything would be over.

Romo had no intention of ascending to the heavenly realm now. It was fine if he could not use the Sky Ascension Stairs, there was no need to be anxious. It was too early to talk about the 10,000-year Heavenly Divine Tribulation. If it were any other Heavenly Divine Mage, they might be vexed that they could not ascend in the future.

It was recorded in the history books that many Heavenly Divine Magi had tried to forcefully ascend, but they were struck to death by the lightning tribulation which went out of control. As for Romo, he knew the secret of the Sky Ascension Stairs and the Companion Realm Treasure. He knew how to restore the Sky Ascension Stairs! The method was… the Companion Realm Treasure! If he could obtain the complete Companion Realm Treasure, he would be able to control this world and restore the Sky Ascension Stairs and build the path to ascension! In addition, Romo already had a portion of the Companion Realm Treasure in his soul!

Since there was already a method and a direction to work toward, there was no need to elaborate on the future plans. This path was extremely difficult, and he could only take it step by step… The future had to be walked out step by step from the present. In the end, he still had to stand firm in the present and walk forward on solid ground.

…

Romo retracted his scattered thoughts and looked down at Hera’s tablet, which had not moved at all.

“Hera, oh Hera, I’m already at the Heavenly Divine Realm. Wake up quickly and look at me. Look at our descendants…”

Romo was a little lonely and helpless. He sighed in his heart. He had already advanced and became a Heavenly Divine Mage, so why was he still unable to wake Hera up? Sigh… Currently, the only thing that could make the sleeping Hera react was the power of his descendants’ faith.

This time, it was the breakthrough of Romo, the Old Ancestor. The family clan had not upgraded, so naturally there was not much change to the System. Before the advancement, he had hoped that he might be able to reconstruct his body after he had advanced to the Heavenly Divine Realm, but it still did not work. He was still in the special state as an ancestral sacred spirit and could not leave the family territory, nor could he manifest himself.

Alright, he could only wait for the family clan to level up before checking if there was any new permission.

…

Romo then opened the System interface and clicked open the Family Clan Spirit Beast Nurture Talisman he had exchanged for in the Special Gift Bag earlier. The designated target was… the queen worm egg of the Demonic Devouring Insects. In the beginning, he was only testing it. He had not expected that it could really be used on the huge egg, which had been protected by Norton’s magic formation! It seemed that it was not necessary to bring it back to the family territory to be considered the family clan’s Guardian Spirit Beast. This egg was currently possessed by the Nicholas family, and the System had also recognized it as the Guardian Spirit Beast of the Nicholas family.

In other words, the queen worm in this huge egg of the Demonic Devouring Insects was not an ordinary ferocious beast. Instead, it was a mutated spirit beast! This made Romo look forward to it. If his family could obtain the queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects, the significance would not be inferior to that of the seven-color young peacock.

… .

At the same time, in the core area of the Magic Stone Mine in the depths of the Calamity Mountain Range, at the ruins of the Demonic Devouring Insects’ nest, after Romo had used the family clan’s Family Clan’s Spirit Beast Nurture Talisman on the huge egg, the queen worm egg of the Demonic Devouring Insects, which had been as quiet as a dead thing, suddenly started to devour the energy in the vicinity!!

Such a change was immediately discovered by Norton and the others. They were a little surprised, but they did not stop it. Although they did not know why, it was not a bad thing. Even if the devouring was a little crazy, it was only a drop in the ocean compared to the vast energy of the Magic Stone Mine. There was no need to stop it. Previously, the queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects and the huge swarm of insects had absorbed it for countless years, but they had not been able to suck this mine dry. It could be seen how huge this mine was.

… .

Then, a few days later, those from the Nicholas family had basically explored this mine. The outcome was very pleasant. This was the largest magic stone mine in 5,000 years of the Sebastian Kingdom!

After the survey, they selected a few of the main magic ore extraction spots. Next, they could set up the initial plan for mining the magic ore. However, there was no need for the miners to come so quickly. There was a major problem that had not been resolved…

At dusk, on the ground above the core area of the Magic Stone Mine, the four Divine Magi, including Norton, suddenly looked toward the north.

The Gale Wind Island had arrived!!
