Chapter 989: Chapter 989: Star Selection Assembly!
Barbarian Continent!
Under the jurisdiction of Jinchen Holy Land, a first-class sect, the Star Divine Sect!
Today is the day for the once-every-three-years opening of the Star Divine Sect’s gates!
Every three years, the Star Divine Sect opens to everyone within its domain!
Even ordinary people can participate in the Star Selection Tournament. If they pass the test of the Star Divine Sect, they can rise to the heavens in one step and become an Outer Sect Disciple of the Star Divine Sect!
It’s not an exaggeration to say they’ve embarked on the path to immortality!
Thus, the triennial Star Selection Tournament is very famous within the jurisdiction of the Star Divine Sect!
It’s not an exaggeration to say it’s known by all!
Rumbling!
Dozens of figures rode their swords through the sky and landed on the mountaintop!
At the foot of the mountain, a dense crowd of ordinary people gathered to participate in the Star Selection Tournament, including many who had never cultivated.
On the mountaintop, the Star Divine Sect disciples, looking like immortals, glanced down at the crowd below, as small as ants, chatting quietly with each other.
"I really don’t understand what the sect is thinking, offering these people a chance every three years! They’re just ants. Can they really cultivate to become immortals?"
"You can’t say that. Over the millennia, many have become Inner Sect Disciples from the Outer Sect, and one of them even emerged as a Great Power of Integration."
"One Integration power every few thousand years, while this amount of resources would birth at least two or three Integration powers for us cultivation families..."
"Junior brother, silence! If Hui Yao Great Ability hears you saying this, you won’t escape punishment!"
Hui Yao Great Ability indeed emerged from the Star Selection Tournament as a Great Power of Integration.
"It’s about time, let’s start!"
The leading man in black said impatiently.
Upon hearing this, the Outer Sect Disciple, who had been waiting on the side, flew up on his sword and shouted loudly: "The Star Selection Tournament begins! Everyone start climbing the mountain!"
The rules of the Star Selection Tournament are quite simple.
This mountain has three thousand three hundred and thirty-three steps!
As long as you can climb to the top step, you can become a disciple of the Star Divine Sect!
However, a terrifying pressure forms on the steps.
No matter if they are ordinary people, those at the Qi Cultivation Realm, Foundation Establishment Realm, or even the Golden Core Realm, they will be suppressed to a certain level when they step forward!
Don’t mind the Star Divine Sect disciples’ disdainful faces!
Saying some sarcastic remarks.
In fact, many Inner Sect Disciples of the Star Divine Sect have sneaked through the Star Selection Path!
Few are able to successfully reach the top of the mountain, nearly equivalent to the same ratio as these ordinary people!
Among them are even elite disciples at the Divinity Transformation Stage!
So, the Star Divine Sect disciples, especially those from cultivation families, have very complex feelings about this Star Selection Path!
On this path, it seems everyone is equal!
Some have already set foot on the Star Selection Path.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, a Nascent Soul Stage Inner Sect Disciple cried out in surprise, "Elder Wu, look at that person in white..."
The disciple pointed ahead, speaking to the leading man in black.
Elder Wu looked over with displeasure. Being assigned to organize the Star Selection Tournament had already dissatisfied him, and now the disciple had so many questions...
"Huh?"
The moment he saw the person in white.
Elder Wu was also surprised, his eyes widening.
The Star Selection Path treats all equally.
Everyone climbs at the same speed; the difference is only how far you can go!
Even a Divinity Transformation expert climbs as slowly as an ordinary person on the Star Selection Path.
But that person in white was faster than everyone else. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Incredibly fast!
The person in white, as if leisurely strolling in a courtyard, climbed step by step with incredible speed!
In just a few breaths, he had ascended dozens of steps!
"What is going on?"
Elder Wu wondered, perplexed.
In thousands of years of the Star Selection Tournament, the Star Selection Path had never seen such a situation.
He suddenly realized that the person in white seemed different!
"Someone, return to the sect immediately, inform the Elders’ Council, and request a Great Power of Integration be sent!"
With such an anomaly on the star selection path that hadn’t appeared for thousands of years, Elder Wu did not dare be careless!
Just when a Nascent Soul disciple was about to leave, everyone suddenly heard a sigh.
"Isn’t it nice to stay put? Must I be forced to act..."
With the voice, two figures suddenly appeared on the mountaintop.
One of them was an old man with blood-colored eyes, and the other seemed to be just an ordinary person.
"You..."
Just as Elder Wu was about to speak, he saw the old man point his finger.
Waves of blood surged toward everyone in the Star Divine Sect.
"Blood Sea Overflowing! You are the Bloodthirsty Old Demon!"
Elder Wu recognized the man’s identity, but it was already too late!
With the action of a Great Power of Integration Peak, he as a mere Spirit Transformation Peak, could not resist!
The blood wave crashed down!
Dozens of Star Divine Sect disciples were all wiped out!
Liu Xiuyuan, standing beside the Bloodthirsty Old Demon, twitched at the corners of his mouth, suppressing the urge to vomit.
Ever since he discovered that the master he apprenticed to had the title of the Bloodthirsty Old Demon, this poor child had been on the verge of collapse!
Although he was a "god-defying one," he was actually a very honest kid.
Now he’s become an apprentice to the Bloodthirsty Old Demon, causing him utter despair!
Especially when in front of a Great Power of Integration, he couldn’t even kill himself!
In fact, in just five days, he’d become a Qi Cultivation Realm cultivator, possessing the Blood Demon Skills.
It’s already too late for him to regret.
"Master, what is the World Master doing?"
Liu Xiuyuan asked, puzzled and confused.
Since five days ago, when that mysterious World Master refined the "Heavenly God," things have turned eerie.
Because, after refining the "Heavenly God," that omnipotent World Master became an ordinary person!
It was too bizarre for Liu Xiuyuan to fathom.
Then, he found himself taken away from the New Song Dynasty by these two, arriving at this so-called Heavenly Realm with an unimaginable concentration of Spiritual Energy!
Moreover, the World Master separated from the other Great Powers of Integration, embarking on an even stranger journey!
This was the first time in five days they had stopped!
He couldn’t understand how the previously omnipotent World Master could become an ordinary person, nor could he understand why they stopped here.
"Don’t ask too much!"
The Bloodthirsty Old Demon glared fiercely at Liu Xiuyuan!
In truth, even at this moment, he was still filled with dread!
On that day, in the Nameless Middle Thousand World!
Lin Mu first successfully broke through, becoming a peerless and matchless Great Power of Integration with countless Dao Arts!
Then, from refining that "Heavenly God," he became an ordinary person without any trace of cultivation!
The first thought of the Bloodthirsty Old Demon at that moment was to kill this Lord of the Blessed Land and seize the opportunity he carried!
But the Bloodthirsty Old Demon restrained himself!
Because when Lin Mu killed Ming Wuxing, he had, in fact, become Lin Mu’s admirer!
Even when facing Lin Mu, who had lost all cultivation, he still did not strike!
According to his thoughts, Lin Mu, with no cultivation, should have continued to cultivate quietly within the Nameless Middle Thousand World for a while.
After all, those guarding outside the Nameless Middle Thousand World might not, like him, choose to give up.
They might very well choose to kill Lin Mu and seize the opportunity!
But Lin Mu seemed to have no such concerns and directly left the Nameless Middle Thousand World!
When they appeared before the twenty-nine Great Powers of Integration, the Bloodthirsty Old Demon was so nervous he could barely breathe.
It was even more tense than when he was chased by the three Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors!
