Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

If you were to ask who in this world understands Han Wuming the most, without a doubt, it would be Chen Tian.

Chen Tian had spent the most time with Han Wuming and understood his thoughts the best.

Seeing the depressed look on his face, Chen Tian immediately guessed what he was thinking.

Originally, Han Wuming and the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor were on equal footing as elders, but suddenly, the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor was appointed as the deputy sect master, thus surpassing Han Wuming.

It was probably because of this that Han Wuming felt depressed.

"Cough, cough!" After looking at Han Wuming for a while, Chen Tian coughed a few times and said to him, "What? Are you dissatisfied?"

"How dare I? Whatever the sect master says is what it is. I will naturally obey," Han Wuming replied perfunctorily to Chen Tian's question, his depression evident on his face.

Han Wuming was indeed depressed. When they were both elders, Han Wuming could still bicker with the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor, but now that the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor had suddenly become his superior, wouldn't it be improper to argue and quarrel as before?

It would be a lie to say he wasn't angry!

Looking at Han Wuming, who was sulking, Chen Tian smiled wryly. This guy was really becoming more and more disrespectful.

But then again, Han Wuming had helped Chen Tian a lot, so he should be rewarded.

Thinking this, Chen Tian said with a smile, "Alright, if that's the case, then I'll promote you too."

"Hmm? Promote?" Hearing these two words, Han Wuming's ears immediately twitched, and he said with excitement, "Are you going to make me the deputy sect master too?"

"There is only one deputy sect master. Don't overthink it," Chen Tian immediately retorted as soon as Han Wuming finished speaking.

"Hmph, if it's not deputy sect master, then what's the point?" Hearing Chen Tian's words, Han Wuming became depressed again.

Chen Tian smiled slightly when he saw this and said, "Who said there's no point? I now appoint you as the High Priest of the Immortal Demon Sect, on equal footing with the deputy sect master!"

"High Priest?" Hearing this, Han Wuming was first stunned, and then overjoyed. He hurriedly thanked him, "Good, good, good, as long as I can be on equal footing with this old demon, I don't care about anything else."

Saying that, Han Wuming bumped the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor's left shoulder and said with a smug look, "Hehe, Old Demon, now we're on the same level again."

Looking at Han Wuming, who was grinning foolishly, the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor scanned him with a look of caring for the mentally challenged, and then quickly moved away from him, as if he didn't want to be infected by his foolishness.

The Demon Heaven Old Ancestor naturally understood that although Chen Tian had promoted Han Wuming, the High Priest had no real power at all. In the sect, he was like a mascot, and his treatment was not even as good as an elder's.

"Sect Master, do you have any other instructions?" After frowning slightly, the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor stopped and turned to look at Chen Tian with a puzzled expression.

Chen Tian did not express anything after hearing this, but just stared at him and Han Wuming and asked, "What level have you two cultivated to now?"

Hearing this, Han Wuming and the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor were both stunned. They really did not expect Chen Tian to ask such a question.

However, the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor did not dare to hide anything and hurriedly replied, "In recent years, because I have been busy with sect affairs, I have not had free time to cultivate, so my realm has always remained at the early stage of the凝海境 (Ninghai Realm). After the battle a few days ago, because of serious injuries, my cultivation base has faintly shown a downward trend. It seems that I will have to cultivate for several decades to make up for it."

At the thought of the injuries in his body, a trace of melancholy appeared on the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor's face.

At this time, Han Wuming also quickly replied, "Not to hide it from the sect master, as early as twenty years ago, I had already cultivated to the peak of the 化泉镜 (Huaquan Realm), but twenty years have passed, and I am still stuck here. The bottleneck of the 凝海境 (Ninghai Realm) is really too powerful."

Compared to the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor, Han Wuming was even more sad. Over the past twenty years, he had tried several times, but he could not break through the 凝海境 (Ninghai Realm) and was still blocked outside by that indestructible bottleneck, unable to move forward.

Otherwise, after he had cultivated to the 凝海境 (Ninghai Realm), he would not have needed the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor to support himself alone when Lang Lang invaded a few days ago.

Looking at the melancholy on the faces of the two, Chen Tian suddenly grinned and smiled, "In view of your meritorious service in defending the Immortal Demon Sect, this time I will reward you with a great opportunity."

"A great opportunity?" Hearing Chen Tian's pretentious words, the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor and Han Wuming were both taken aback and looked at him together, wondering what the opportunity he was talking about was.

Seeing the suspicious gazes cast by the two, Chen Tian smiled again, then waved his right hand, and colorful light clusters suddenly floated out of the storage ring.

There were a total of eight light clusters that flew out. With a wave of Chen Tian's hand, they were immediately divided into two portions, four in each portion, and landed safely in the palms of Han Wuming and the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor.

And just as they touched these light clusters, a series of extremely solemn and enormous power suddenly erupted from the light clusters, attacking the brains of the two, as if the Nine Heavens Profound Thunder had descended, blasting their minds blank, their bodies trembling, as if they were about to succumb to this enormous power.

Faced with all of this, Han Wuming and the Demon Heaven Old Ancestor were both shocked!
