Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It felt like a lifetime had passed when Duan Ling Tian entered the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm after 100 years.

Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er, naturally, attracted a lot of attention when they appeared in one of the safe zones in the upper realm. Most of it was due to Huan'er's beauty.

Most people could not look away from Huan'er at all.

"What a beautiful woman!"

"I've never seen a woman as beautiful as her! Her face is flawless…"

"I think she's comparable to that woman, Huan'er, who briefly made an appearance in the upper realm 100 years ago."

At this moment, a voice overwhelmed all the chattering in the surroundings. "Wait! She's Huan'er! I was eliminated by her 100 years ago so I know what she looks like!"

The person who had spoken was a middle-aged man standing nearby. At this moment, he was looking at Huan'er warily.

"Isn't that Xiao Hong Kun!"

Many people recognized the middle-aged man immediately. After all, he was relatively famous in the upper realm. Xiao Hong Kun frequently ranked in the top 30 so it was only natural that people recognized him.

"As it turns out, she's Huan'er!"

"She disappeared 100 years ago, right?"

"Back then, she wasn't even 100 years old. I wonder how much she has improved after 100 years have passed"

"If she didn't enter the upper realm again, I would've thought she had become a Celestial Lord. In my opinion, she's probably a Ten Directions Celestial King now."

"She managed to rank 15th when she was just a Six Combos Celestial King… Now that 100 years have passed, I'm sure her comprehension of the law of space has deepened as well. If she's a Ten Directions Celestial King now, she's likely as strong as Yan Ru Yv."

"That's possible."

Due to Huan'er's shocking strength 100 years ago, most people agreed that she had most likely grown even stronger now.

Meanwhile, under everyone's watchful eyes, Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er collected their Identity Jade Tokens and left the safe zone. Similar to the previous time they were here, they did not trigger the invisibility Formation when they left. Even so, everyone in the safe zone only watched them leave and did not dare to follow or attack them.

Those people who lingered outside the safe zone soon learned from those in the safe zone that the woman who just left was the Huan'er from 100 years ago. Similarly, they did not dare to act against the duo.

Just like that, Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er openly walked out of the safe zone without encountering any problem. Moreover, they did not meet anyone for quite some time. It was as though everyone had disappeared.

"Huan'er, this time we should aim to rank between 31st and 100th place. The only secret realm that will be challenging for you is the grade-three secret realm," Duan Ling Tian said to Huan'er. Since he did not plan to rank at the top, he was not anxious even if they had yet to encounter anyone. The only reason he decided to enter the upper realm again before heading to the Jade Emperor Realm was to help Huan'er look for a fortuitous encounter that could help her break through and become a Celestial Lord.

…

While Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er were wandering the upper realm, Zhang Jin Yi, who was using the name Dong Yue, was on a killing spree. His ranking rose rapidly, and in just a month, he was ranked 39th.

"Hm?" While Zhang Jin Yi was looking for his next target, he casually glanced at his Identity Jade Token. It did not take long before he saw the name that he had been waiting to see for the last 100 years.

96th place. Huan'er.

"She's here?" Zhang Jin Yi widened his eyes in surprise. When he regained his senses, he began to laugh. "Who knew she'll finally enter the upper realm during my last time here. It seems like luck is on my side!'

The woman he had been waiting for over the last 100 years was finally here!

'Well, there's no need to raise my ranking now… I'll wait for her to catch up to my rank or vice versa before I track her down,' Zhang Jin Yi thought to himself, dismissing his plan to rise to the top of the scoreboard. He was not anxious at all as he waited for his chance.

…

In just a blink of an eye, 15 days had passed.

Huan'er was ranked 82nd while Duan Ling Tian was ranked 85th.

'I'll continue waiting for now.' Zhang Jin Yi found a quiet place to hide in the upper realm. There was rarely any cultivator who would come to this place. On the rare occasion that a cultivator came to this place, he would only chase them away and did not kill or eliminate them.

For that reason, Zhang Jin Yi's rank dropped from 39th to 46th.

This time, Zhang Jin Yi was very patient. He had already waited for 100 years, what was another few more months?

…

Months passed one after another until there was only one month left before the scoreboard would be refreshed.

"Hm?" Zhang Jin Yi discovered Huan'er and Duan Ling Tian's ranks had stopped rising and were fixed in the top 50 for a long time now.

The duo's ranks remained the same since half a year ago. Huan'er was ranked 35th while Duan Ling Tian was ranked 37th.

Zhang Jin Yi frowned as he thought to himself, 'Did someone else use their names? How's it possible that she can't even make it into the top 30 when she was ranked in the top 15 previously?'

'Whatever. It doesn't matter. I don't care about the rankings in the upper realm. I have nothing to lose by following them to the grade-three secret realm. If those two are impostors, they'll have to pay for their stupidity with their lives!' Zhang Jin Yi's eyes flashed with a vicious glint.

Swoosh!

At this moment, Zhang Jin Yi finally left the place he stayed in for almost a year to gather points again. His rank had dropped so low that he was no longer on the scoreboard. Naturally, he was not anxious at all. With this strength, he could easily make it into the top 100 within a month.

…

The Enforcement Hall in the Wind Thunder Dao Sect's estate.

"That woman, Huan'er, has reappeared in the upper realm?"

The eyes of Jun Chong Shan, the Vice Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall, brightened when he received this news. However, soon after, a frown appeared on his face as he muttered to himself, "They've been in there for almost a year, and yet, both of them are only ranked in the top 40? Instead of becoming stronger, is it possible that they grew weaker over the last 100 years?"

In the end, similar to Zhang Jin Yi, Jun Chong Shan concluded the duo had to be impostors.

"Even when she wasn't even 100 years old, she was already so powerful. Now that 100 years have passed, she must have grown even stronger. In my opinion, there's a chance that the Tao Scholar Profound Sect's Yan Ru Yv isn't a match for her. There's also a chance that she has become a Celestial Lord. Wang Chen, Qiu He, grandpa is useless! I'm unable to avenge both of you!" Although Jun Chong Shan was filled with hatred, he knew it was almost impossible for him to avenge his great-grandchildren.

At this moment, a voice rang from outside the hall. "Vice Hall Master, a core disciple requests to see you."

Jun Chong Shan regained his senses and gestured for the core disciple to be brought into the hall.

Soon after, the core disciple arrived. He greeted Jun Chong Shan. "Vice Hall Master."

"What is it?" Jun Chong Shan asked indifferently. At this time, he had already composed himself and looked no different from usual. No trace of sadness could be seen on his face at all.

"Vice Hall Master, 100 years ago, I was eliminated by Huan'er. This time, I was eliminated by Duan Ling Tian," the core disciple said without beating around the bush, "Vice Hall Master, I'm here to inform you that those two people have entered the upper realm again!"

"What?! Are you sure they're Huan'er and Duan Ling Tian? Are you sure they aren't impostors?" Jun Chong Shan's eyes lit up. After all, he had concluded the duo were impostors earlier.

"I'm certain." The core disciple nodded confidently. "Huan'er eliminated me 100 years ago, and Duan Ling Tian was there at that time. I know what they look like…"

Jun Chong Shan muttered under his breath, puzzled, "Then, why are their rankings so low this time? It's a far cry from their previous rankings…"

"I'm not sure… Perhaps, they want to enter the grade-three secret realm? After all, in the history of the upper realm, there were many powerful Ten Directions Celestial Kings who intentionally lowered their ranks so they could enter the grade-three secret realm," the core disciple speculated out loud.

Jun Chong Shan's eyes lit up again when he heard the core disciple's speculation. Soon after, a bold plan appeared in his mind.

After a moment, he said, "You better not be lying… Otherwise, I won't let the matter go."

After Jun Chong Shan finished speaking, he stared at the core disciple intently, wanting to see if there were any signs that the core disciple was lying. When he was finally satisfied, he dismissed the core disciple.

After the core disciple left, Jun Chong Shan's eyes shone with determination as he murmured, "Even the heavens are on my side. Wang Chen, Qiu He, it seems like grandpa will be able to avenge both of you!"

Subsequently, Jun Chong Shan brought out a glowing black pill and swallowed it without any hesitation.

In just a blink of an eye, Celestial Origin Energy began to leak out of Jun Chong Shan's body.

In two hours, Jun Chong Shan reverted to a Ten Directions Celestial King from a One Basic Celestial Lord.

"It works! My cultivation base has reverted to that of a Ten Directions Celestial King! Fortunately, I still retained my comprehension of all nine profundities from the law of fire. The four profundities that I've comprehended to the initial stage didn't regress as well. With my current strength, even Yan Ru Yv isn't a match for me! If she's still stronger than me, then there's nothing else I can do. However, if she's weaker than me, then she's destined to be buried in the upper realm!"

Jun Chong Shan's eyes glinted as he retrieved a Formation compass and traveled to the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.
