### **Chapter 1481 — The Return To Heaven Cutter Sect**
Beyond countless immortal mountains—
Far away from the chaotic gathering of immortal sects—
A massive ancient mountain range slowly appeared within the clouds—
Towering peaks pierced the heavens—
Ancient waterfalls descended like silver rivers—
While countless spirit birds circled the sky—
At the center—
A colossal black-and-gold sect gate stood proudly—
Upon it—
Three ancient characters radiated terrifying sword intent—
Heaven Cutter Sect—
The moment Yang Lin's group arrived—
The entire sect instantly became restless—
Because the disciples could already feel several terrifying auras descending—
Then—
Thousands of Heaven Cutter Sect disciples immediately rushed outward—
Before respectfully bowing toward Yang Lin—
"Sect Master!"
Their voices shook the surrounding mountains—
Meanwhile—
The disciples' eyes widened instantly after noticing Xue Yao—
Because her existence alone—
Made the surrounding spiritual energy freeze faintly—
Even the heavens seemed quieter around her—
---
### **Chapter 1482 — The Woman Who Entered The Sect**
Yang Lin calmly descended onto the enormous central platform—
Then slowly spoke—
"This is the Heaven Cutter Sect."
His voice remained indifferent—
Yet for some reason—
The disciples felt immense pride afterward—
Because their mysterious sect master—
Had returned with beings capable of shaking the Inner Upper World—
Meanwhile—
Xue Yao quietly observed the sect surroundings—
Ancient sword intent lingering across the mountains—
Dense immortal qi flowing beneath the ground—
And countless disciples cultivating seriously—
Though the sect was still developing—
Its foundation strangely carried limitless potential—
Meanwhile—
FeiFei suddenly stepped forward proudly—
Then respectfully bowed slightly toward Xue Yao—
"Welcome to the Heaven Cutter Sect, Senior Xue Yao."
Her tone—
For once—
Contained genuine respect—
Soon afterward—
Su Qinglan—
Han Chen—
Han Qing—
Ning Mei—
And even Daji—
Also greeted Xue Yao respectfully—
Because everyone already understood—
The current Xue Yao—
Was likely the strongest existence within the entire Inner Upper World—
---
### **Chapter 1483 — The Immortal Venerable Of Heaven Cutter Sect**
FeiFei looked around excitedly afterward—
Then loudly announced—
"Our Heaven Cutter Sect has an Immortal Venerable now!"
Boom—
The nearby disciples instantly became stunned—
Several nearly lost control of their spiritual qi—
Even the elders froze completely—
Because Immortal Venerable—
Was a realm they had only heard in ancient legends—
Meanwhile—
Su Qinglan softly smiled—
"Then…"
"Wouldn't Immortal Kings become nothing before us?"
The surrounding disciples became even more shocked—
Because even mentioning Immortal Kings casually already sounded unbelievable—
Yet before anyone could continue—
Yang Lin directly frowned slightly—
"Don't say nonsense."
"It's Xue Yao who is an Immortal Venerable."
"Not you all."
His tone remained calm—
Yet everyone instantly became obedient—
Meanwhile—
Daji softly laughed afterward—
Her fox-like eyes narrowing beautifully—
"Yes…"
"But with Heaven Cutter Sect Mistress Xue Yao here…"
"…we have nothing to fear anymore."
The disciples instantly widened their eyes—
Sect Mistress?
Even Su Qinglan and FeiFei nearly choked afterward—
Meanwhile—
Yang Lin's expression immediately darkened slightly—
"Stop talking nonsense."
The surrounding people instantly became quieter—
---
### **Chapter 1484 — Xue Yao's Response**
Meanwhile—
Xue Yao quietly stood beside Yang Lin—
Her white hair drifting softly beneath the immortal wind—
Then calmly spoke—
"I am not interested in titles."
"But…"
Her cold eyes slowly glanced across the Heaven Cutter Sect—
"…I will protect this sect for now."
Simple words—
Yet the entire Heaven Cutter Sect instantly became silent—
Because those words—
Essentially meant—
An Immortal Venerable had acknowledged their existence—
Several disciples nearly fainted from excitement—
Even the elders' hands trembled slightly—
Meanwhile—
Yang Lin simply remained calm—
As though such things were normal—
---
### **Chapter 1485 — The Journey That Had Yet To Begin**
Later—
As everyone gathered atop the highest mountain pavilion—
Yang Lin calmly looked toward the distant sky—
Then slowly spoke—
"When we go to the World of Cultivation in the lower realm…"
"…that is when the real journey begins."
The surrounding people immediately focused seriously—
Because they knew Yang Lin never spoke casually—
Then Yang Lin continued—
"The Rui Stars Lower Realm."
"We'll join a powerful sect there first."
"After that…"
"…you all will slowly understand many things yourselves."
Han Chen frowned slightly—
"A lower realm?"
"But wouldn't lower realm cultivators be weaker?"
Yang Lin calmly answered—
"Weaker?"
He lightly shook his head—
"The lower realms are not as simple as you think."
"Some truths…"
"…are hidden there."
---
### **Chapter 1486 — The Name Of An Immortal King**
Then suddenly—
Yang Lin calmly continued—
"If one day you encounter an Immortal King…"
"And nobody is around to help you…"
"…you should still face them."
Boom—
Everyone instantly froze—
Even Xue Yao's eyes narrowed slightly afterward—
Because those words—
Sounded completely insane—
Meanwhile—
Ning Mei immediately panicked—
"W-What if we're completely doomed?!"
The moment those words appeared—
Yang Lin's expression suddenly became colder—
"Don't say nonsense."
His voice echoed across the pavilion calmly—
Yet immense pressure instantly filled the surroundings—
Then—
Yang Lin slowly continued—
"If necessary…"
"I can reverse time."
"Even one hundred trillion years into the past or future."
"And stop time completely."
"Not even time-space cuts could destroy it."
Silence—
Absolute silence—
Everyone stared at Yang Lin as though their minds had stopped functioning—
Because what he described—
Already exceeded immortal understanding entirely—
---
### **Chapter 1487 — The Impossible Truth**
Han Chen's face became pale instantly—
Because even Immortal Sovereigns—
Could barely interfere with time slightly—
Yet Yang Lin casually spoke about reversing hundreds of trillions of years—
Meanwhile—
Su Qinglan's beautiful eyes trembled faintly—
FeiFei completely froze—
Han Qing subconsciously stepped backward—
Even Daji's playful smile disappeared for once—
Because such abilities—
Should not exist—
Meanwhile—
Xue Yao quietly stared at Yang Lin—
Her cold expression finally showing visible shock—
Because even at her peak—
Manipulating time at such levels sounded impossible—
Then Yang Lin calmly added—
"Though…"
"My principle is not to use such methods casually."
"At most…"
"I'd reverse one hour into the past."
Everyone finally exhaled slightly afterward—
Yet their hearts still shook endlessly—
Because even reversing one hour—
Was already terrifying beyond imagination—
---
### **Chapter 1488 — Xue Yao's Second Question**
The immortal wind flowed quietly across the mountain pavilion—
Then—
Xue Yao suddenly asked softly—
"…Yang Lin."
"Who exactly are you?"
The surrounding people instantly became silent again—
Because they also wanted the answer desperately—
Meanwhile—
Yang Lin calmly looked toward Xue Yao—
Then softly asked—
"At your peak…"
"…your realm was seven major realms above Immortal Venerable, right?"
Boom—
Xue Yao's pupils instantly shrank—
For the first time—
Visible shock appeared across her cold face—
Because Yang Lin—
Had guessed correctly—
Meanwhile—
Everyone else became horrified from her reaction alone—
Because if Xue Yao truly stood seven major realms above Immortal Venerable at her peak—
Then what exactly was Yang Lin?
---
### **Chapter 1489 — The Secret He Refused To Reveal**
The mountain pavilion became completely silent—
Then Yang Lin calmly spoke again—
"I'm not saying what exists above Immortal Sovereign for now."
"Not yet."
His voice remained indifferent—
Yet everyone's hearts shook endlessly afterward—
Because even Immortal Sovereign—
Was already considered nearly mythical—
Yet Yang Lin casually implied even higher realms existed—
Meanwhile—
Yang Lin slowly looked toward the distant sky—
"Less than a year from now…"
"And much later…"
"When we arrive at the Rui Stars Lower Realm…"
"…you all will either understand slowly."
"Or realize it yourselves."
The surrounding people remained speechless afterward—
Because the mysteries surrounding Yang Lin—
Had only become more terrifying—
---
### **Chapter 1490 — The Sect That Looked Toward The Future**
Night slowly descended across the Heaven Cutter Sect—
Countless stars illuminating the immortal mountains—
While the disciples below still discussed today's events endlessly—
An Immortal Venerable had joined the sect—
The Four Great Sects had been suppressed—
And their mysterious sect master—
Possibly understood powers beyond Immortal Sovereign—
Meanwhile—
Atop the highest mountain—
Yang Lin calmly stood beneath the endless starry sky—
His long black hair drifting softly in the wind—
Beside him—
Xue Yao quietly stood silently—
Her frost-like eyes reflecting the countless stars above—
Neither spoke again—
Yet both understood one thing clearly—
The journey ahead—
Had only just begun—
