The Ascension Journey of a Mortal

In the bustling heart of Saigon, the city dazzles with its duality: opulence for the affluent and desolation for the destitute. Amidst this urban chaos, a compelling saga unfolds, capturing the essence of survival, ambition, and the relentless pursuit of hope. Meet Minh, a streetwise young man with a knack for evading trouble. Despite his unassuming appearance and history of petty theft, Minh harbors a heart full of loyalty and a dream for a better life. His life is a constant chase, not just from the authorities but from his own limitations and circumstances. "Are you good at standing still?" might as well be Minh’s mantra, for his life is anything but stationary. Minh's closest confidant and moral compass is Mr. Ly, an elderly man who, despite his advanced age and destitution, possesses a wealth of wisdom. Mr. Ly has taught Minh how to read and instilled in him the value of knowledge. Their bond is not just of necessity but of mutual respect and unspoken familial ties. Minh often reflects, "I often suspect that you are a person from another world who has come here!" This suspicion is more admiration, highlighting the stark contrast between their lives and Mr. Ly's enigmatic presence. The narrative takes a mystical turn when Minh's encounters introduce him to a realm of fantastical possibilities. The tales Mr. Ly used to tell about different kinds of spiritual bodies and their abilitiessome blessed by gods to control elements like Wind and Lightning start to feel less like stories and more like hidden truths about the world Minh inhabits. This revelation begins when he meets Luu Tich Quan, a formidable woman bound by family pride and mysterious powers. Their interaction is a dance of power and secrecy, each with their own past and future to protect. Minh's struggle intensifies as he grapples with his own latent abilities and the harsh realities of the mystical world he is slowly drawn into. "Your problem is that the bitter sea recovers too quickly, it is difficult to expand, you can only rely on external support to explore," Luu Tich Quan tells Minh, hinting at the untapped potential within him and the monumental challenges he faces. His body, described as the Longevity Body, suggests he is destined for greatness but also curses him with perpetual struggle. The stakes rise as Minh becomes entangled with the powerful Luu family, known for their mastery over ancient techniques and ruthless ambition. The conflict with the Luu family is not just physical but deeply ideological, testing Minh's principles and his resolve to protect those he loves, like little Vi, who represents his hope and future. In a particularly gripping scene, Minh faces off with Luu Toan, a proud member of the Luu family. The tension is palpable, with Luu Toan underestimating Minh's tenacity. "I really don't want to offend you, I'm just forced to," Minh says, encapsulating his reluctant heroism. This moment marks the beginning of Minh’s transformation from a street survivor to a significant player in the unfolding mystical war. The narrative's climax is both a physical and spiritual battle. Minh’s journey through ancient relics, facing mythical beasts, and deciphering cryptic prophecies leads him to a profound understanding of his purpose. The encounters with other powerful entities, like Doc Co Minh and the enigmatic Nether Demon Master, push Minh to his limits, forcing him to harness his true potential. “Don't worry, I can never die,” Minh declares, embodying the resilience that defines his character. This statement is not just bravado but a testament to his undying spirit, foreshadowing his crucial role in the larger cosmic struggle. Can Minh fully realize his potential and face the harsh challenges that lie ahead? Where will this journey take him, and what secrets will be revealed in the battle between good and evil? Stay tuned to uncover the surprises and wonders still hidden within "[The Ascension Journey of a Mortal]".

Chapter 16: A Madman

- I advise you not to play tricks, otherwise, you will never have a chance to appear in Chu Yu Empire again!

- Quickly hand over the key!

The monks threatened again.

Seeing dozens of magic talismans and thousands of magic weapons pointed straight at Doc Co Minh, even Mong Tieu Pham felt a chill run down his spine, worried about him, so he had to smile bitterly:

- Doc Co Minh, I can't help you this time!

Doan Chi Binh put his hand to his mouth and coughed:

- Doc Co Minh, hold on for a moment, later let's go conquer the married beauties in the world!

- Shameless! Perverted!

This time, without waiting for Doc Co Minh to answer, all the nuns in the secret space gave Doan Chi Binh a disgusted look.

Tieu Mich Nhi seemed to be very sympathetic to Doc Co Minh, his cherry lips curled up, revealing a smile as beautiful as the spring breeze.

- You have a heroic demeanor like my second brother. Mich Nhi admires you very much... When everything is over, I hope you can come to the Tieu family for a trip!

Tieu Mich Nhi's cultivation level is one level higher than Doc Co Minh's, but she always lowers herself to him, which is difficult to understand.

The secret scene trembled in waves, and the group of heavenly arrogances, as numerous as grass ants, began to get impatient and simultaneously approached Doc Co Minh, each with a fierce and murderous look on their faces.

Luu Tich Quan's white face became even whiter, and he suddenly stood next to Doc Co Minh.

Suddenly he turned to look at her and smiled.

- Are you afraid?

- I...

Before she could finish her sentence, Doc Co Minh's left hand hugged her small, soft waist. Next, he took another step back, falling down with her into the deep ghost abyss.

- Doc Co Minh, I will kill you!

- Let's kill him together with the god talisman!

- Kill!

Countless angry screams rang out on the edge of the abyss, dozens of magical talismans simultaneously lit up, creating illusory images of Nascent Soul realm experts displaying their strongest magical powers.

Nascent Soul condenses the great path of heaven and earth into its body, its power completely surpasses what the monks of Qi Condensation, Huyen Nguyen, and Tien Thai can imagine. The first three realms of the path of cultivation are called the Ordinary Realm. Only when entering the Pseudo Immortal can one escape from the mundane and enter the Dao Realm for monks who transcend the world.

- I don't believe that after thousands of magical weapons were hit, he wouldn't be destroyed!

- Do you want to be enemies with the whole world?

Countless brilliant lights of all colors were like fireworks shooting down into the dark demon abyss as if to make the picture of the heavenly battle more amazing.

In that painting, a man covered in blood is holding the first beauty Chu Yu Empire in his left hand, and in his right hand is holding a set of keys that are emitting a bright purple light that illuminates the dark ghost world.

- You're crazy...

Luu Tich Quan whispered, tears flowing from his eyes. It wasn't until she faced death that she truly realized she was afraid of death.

- Why did I have the bad luck to meet a crazy person like you?

I only saw Doc Co Minh smiling slightly. I didn't expect that in this situation, he was still so calm and cold.

It must be said that he currently exudes a charm that is hard to describe in words, making any woman drawn to his confidence.

- Don't worry, I don't want to die, even heaven can't kill me!

The pressure of Nascent Soul spread across heaven and earth as if it wanted to destroy the arrogant, combined with thousands of magic weapons falling at the same time, below the demonic black gas billowed up, demons and ghosts emitted shrill hissing sounds. , all create a unique and magical scene.

Just when Luu Tich Quan thought he was dead and began to close his eyes, the twenty-six keys in Doc Co Minh's hand suddenly trembled, then the purple light became even more intense from all directions covering both bodies.

Above the ghost domain, this situation also happened with the ten heavenly heroes who had the key.

Before being teleported away, everyone wanted to see clearly whether the crazy man and Luu Tich Quan were buried under the ghost abyss or not. But the purple light was so dazzling, combined with a sky of colorful spiritual energy colliding with each other, that no one knew clearly what happened below.

- If he lived, from now on Chu Yu Empire would rise again!

Doan Chi Binh said seriously then disappeared from the secret.

- He is the second Luu Tong, not afraid to be the enemy of the whole world!

The other heavenly heroes gave their opinions and then sighed as the purple light spread out.

- If you're lucky enough to survive, don't see me again. Otherwise, even if I pay a heavy price, I will have to kill you and Luu Tich Quan!

Although Luu Binh disappeared, he left behind a cold sound that lingered in heaven and earth.

Mong Tieu Pham has very strange feelings, he is not from Chu Yu Empire but comes from a remote place thousands of miles away. Because he was chased by enemies, he accidentally fell into the ancient forbidden land and was teleported to Chu Yu Empire. It has been suffocating for three years now. According to Mong Tieu Pham, he felt that besides Carmine, Cyathula, and Crimson, there was no one in Chu Yu Empire worthy of his attention. Yet his two meetings with Doc Co Minh both made him invisibly remember the terrorist on the mainland. Although Doc Co Minh's cultivation level is still weak, his behavior and speech are as domineering as that person.

- This is the kind of domineering air that makes people unable to breathe. There I met a guy who forced me to run away, now here I thought I was invincible in the world, but I met another guy. Luckily, I have a good relationship with this crazy man named Chu Yu Empire!

The monks who did not have the key suffered a serious loss, both losing the divine talisman and losing a thousand-year opportunity. Even so, recalling the scene of that man holding the beautiful woman jumping into the ghost abyss, with a confident smile on his face, everyone couldn't help but feel admiration in their hearts.

- Doc Co Minh, in this life, if I don't show my body and drink your blood, how can I calm the anger in my heart?

Ly Mat Ly shouted loudly.

Young Master Tinh Minh's face was distorted, and he was also angry because the other guy gave him the key. But remembering that guy's more excited and threatened appearance made his spine run cold, completely losing the idea of being an enemy.

When the last remaining person was teleported away, the mysterious sky suddenly split open to reveal a black coffin floating between heaven and earth, surrounded by nearly three thousand sparkling stars that were constantly replenished essence for it.

- The aura... of an old friend!

In the coffin suddenly came an extremely ancient and mournful voice. However, this voice was extremely weak, as if it came from a person who had been sick for a long time and was about to die.

- An old friend... that I really hate...

After saying the word "Hate", the coffin also fell silent, heaven and earth cracked, the mysterious space completely collapsed, once again burying the coffin for ten thousand years, waiting for someone with fate to come and search.

Who is the person in the coffin? Is it really the Nether Demon Master or not?

If he is a ghost master, why does he only appear at the first level? In the legend, U Minh Forbidden Land has a total of three secret realms.

The second secret realm is the path leading to the ancient holy land of the demon race. There are countless inheritances left by powerful people of the demon clan, but the most precious is still the inheritance of the Ten Great King Minh - ten mighty warriors under the command of the Demon Lord.

The third secret realm was discovered by an ancient man. Although he did not obtain the inheritance, he successfully obtained the Dew flower. Later, he achieved the Eye of Samsara and condensed the reincarnation platform, and was known as the God of Heaven.

In a pitch-black forest, two figures suddenly fell from the sky. Suddenly, the two fell into a sticky swamp, their faces and clothes covered in mud.

- Damn it, that old devil wanted revenge so he threw me down here?

- Stop insulting the Demon master. Wanting to take his inheritance but without any respect in his words! If I hadn't been by your side all the time, I would have thought that the crazy guy who just hugged me and jumped off the cliff and the shameless guy now are two completely different people!

Luu Tich Quan wiped the black mud from her face and said angrily. As far as she could see, this guy was clearly shameless down to his bones, his heroic appearance just now was definitely an act.

- How long does this mystery last?

Doc Co Minh stretched a few times. Just now, countless magical powers and magical weapons of destruction rushed in. Luckily, his calculations were almost exactly right and he was able to escape a life. Otherwise, if you jump into the ghost abyss just one second too late, you will turn into dust and return to your grandparents by now.

Luu Tich Quan replied:

- The first secret realm lasts three days, the second secret realm lasts three months, and the third secret realm lasts three years. According to legend, the second secret realm is a ruined corner of the Hell, in which the old palace and mountain gate of the Ten Halls of Hell and the powerhouses of the Hell are lost. Although most of the buildings have been eroded by time, the protective array there is still very dangerous. In addition to the ancient beasts guarding it, if you are not careful, you will lose your life.
