"Line up, line up! Everyone put some distance between us! "
"The one in front, you're stepping on my foot! Are you blind!"
"Hey, that stoneman, can you lie down and cultivate? You're like a wall over there. We can't see what's going on in the Heavenly Gate."
"Usually, I thought there were very few high level martial artists. But now that I'm here, I know that the universe lacks everything but people. It's so crowded!"
"Yeah, I've been lining up here for over a hundred years and I've only gotten a chance to break through the Heavenly Gate once. Damn it, those with connections always get a chance. Those like us who don't have a World King to take care of us are miserable."
At a place 234,000 kilometers away from the Pillar of Life, the Black Hole Stage warriors were moving forward like worms.
The Gate of Heaven that stood tall in the distance was so sacred in their eyes, yet so unreachable.
For the past hundred years, in order to break through the Heavenly Gate, it could be said that the Eight Immortals had crossed the sea and displayed their remarkable abilities.
In the past, they were high and mighty. But now, they were just ordinary people. This was because everyone around them was the same as them, and there were even people stronger than them everywhere.
This was the situation where many people felt that there was no hope of breaking through in the past hundred years. If this was the beginning, the line here would stretch out for millions of kilometers.
Moreover, it wasn't just one line, but many!
Some people began to rack their brains, desperately trying to pull connections with the World King powerhouses and offering up the good things they had collected. If a World King powerhouse took a fancy to something, it was likely that they would help you once and bring you to their position to break through the Heavenly Gate.
As a World King that occupied the front row, they could break through the Heavenly Gate every day. Some people even had the strength to break through the Heavenly Gate but were unwilling to leave. They stayed here to collect benefits in order to prepare for the Primordial Realm.
Many World Kings even set a price of 10 billion cosmos crystals per attempt!
Most martial artists couldn't take out this amount of money. Only some martial artists could, but after breaking through the Heavenly Gate once, they discovered that it was almost unreachable.
Those who weren't willing would return to cultivate. When they felt that their strength had greatly increased, they would try again.
This cycle repeated over and over again. Those World Kings had people to bring along every day. They were simply making a fortune.
Of course, the World Kings didn't occupy all the positions. There were a total of 100,000 positions around the Heavenly Gate, and 90,000 of them were occupied by powerful World Kings.
The remaining 10,000 spots were prepared for the cultivators in the queue. These Domain Monarchs took up 6,000 spots and took turns to advance. Whoever reached a spot could attempt the challenge. If they failed, then if they still wanted to continue, they could only return to the back of the queue and start all over again.
Those in the Galactic stage took up 3,000 spots, while those in the Black Hole stage only took up 1,000 spots.
It was impossible to calculate the number of Black Hole Stage warriors in the entire universe. Therefore, the number of Black Hole Stage warriors was the longest. There were a thousand rows, and each row was overcrowded.
Some people couldn't bear the pain of waiting in line, so they used their World King connections to send gifts. Once or twice was fine, but if it happened too many times, all of their savings would become someone else's.
Those who had no money would give away their fiefs, vital planets, mineral planets, and even their wives to others.
However, everyone here was a high-level warrior and had seen all kinds of scenes. Even if they found the most beautiful woman on a planet or even a galaxy, she probably wouldn't be worth much.
Unless it was the most beautiful woman in an entire high-level civilization in the universe, only then would some World Kings who were interested in this would fight over her.
In order to challenge the Heavenly Gate, it was not difficult to be cuckolded and go bankrupt. There were even many who lost their lives.
Even so, this long queue of more than 300,000 kilometers still proved how popular the Heavenly Gate was!
The chance to pursue immortality was simply an irresistible temptation for warriors.
One had to know that if you couldn't pass the Heavenly Gate this time, then you basically wouldn't have the chance to see the next Heavenly Gate.
After 10,000 years, almost everyone who couldn't pass would die!
Of course, there was another way to advance quickly, and that was to challenge the person in front of you in line.
As long as you defeated the person in front, you could advance by one position. However, you couldn't challenge someone in front of you, or you would be attacked by a group.
It was said that when the Heavenly Gate had just appeared, a great god of the Primordial Realm named Moonchaser had said this rule.
The Primordial Realm was the realm above the World King. Only by reaching this step could one break free from the limits of one's lifespan. Their inner world would be stable, and they would no longer have to worry about aging and dying.
Unless you committed suicide or were killed, you could live forever.
When Moonchaser appeared and announced the rules, the World King powerhouses were fighting over positions. When they saw this person, a group of World Kings refused to accept it and attacked him together.
In the end, Moonchaser's divine pressure killed more than 30 World Kings on the spot. Each one of them was a tyrannical powerhouse, intimidating the crowd. From then on, the rules of the Heavenly Gate were set.
*****
The arrival of Lin Zhen's flying ship did not cause any commotion.
The moment Lin Zhen stepped out of the flying ship, he could really smell the strong smell of alcohol.
"The wine-red nebula really lives up to its reputation."
The ground beneath his feet was not solid, but rather a void with a faint mist. Only those who had reached the Black Hole Stage, whose body's astral powers had formed an endless cycle, could stay here for a long time. This was also one of the reasons why there were no Star Stage cultivators here.
He stepped forward and arrived behind a row of Black Hole Realm martial artists.
In front of him was a black-clothed warrior with a single horn on his head.
Besides the horn on his head, the One-Horned Race didn't look much different from other humans.
"Newcomer?" The man looked back at Lin Zhen.
"Yes, I just arrived."
"Galactic Beast Race?"
This person's eyes were quite sharp. He sized up Lin Zhen and saw that Lin Zhen had a galactic beast bloodline.
"Yes, I'm from the Galactic Beast Alliance."
"Then you'd better not stay here anymore. Go to the Galactic Beast Alliance. Over there, there are birds, beasts, aquatic beasts, and scaled beasts. The number of people there is also much less than here."
"Oh, thank you."
Lin Zhen expressed his gratitude to the One-Horned Race martial artist. He looked around and soon found the Galactic Beast Alliance's team.
There were five teams: beasts, birds, scaled beasts, aquatic, and furry.
Lin Zhen was a Fire Qilin Black Hole Beast. Naturally, he had to go to the beasts' team.
At this point, Lin Zhen frowned.
From his angle, the team stretched to the end of his sight. Compared to the birds and scaled beasts' teams, the beasts' team was ridiculously long.
A simple calculation showed that the team was about 200,000 kilometers long. If Lin Zhen lined up one by one, he would have to line up here for at least a few decades or even a few centuries.
"It seems that I can only challenge them all the way. This is a Black Hole Realm team. It should be easy for me to challenge them."
Lin Zhen walked to the back of the team. Before he could challenge them, the Dimensional Universe's communication device rang.
It was Han Sha from the Galactic Beast Alliance.
"Hey, Brother Han Sha. Long time no see!"
"Yes, Brother Lin Zhen. It's been more than a hundred years. How are you?"
"Pretty good. I eat well, sleep well, and I'm in good health. Everything is good. Haha."
"Well, that's good. Brother Lin, have you come to the Heavenly Gates?"
"I just arrived. How did you know?"
"It's simple. I searched for my friends in the Dimensional Universe and found you. You are now behind the Galactic Beast Alliance's team, right?"
"That's right. I'm at the back. I don't know how many years it will take for me to challenge the Heavenly Gates. I'm preparing to challenge them."
"Don't challenge them. Come to the front. I'm about three hundred meters ahead. Come here. I'll introduce some people to you. With their help, you won't have to line up or challenge them."
Lin Zhen immediately agreed. If he could avoid challenges, he was unwilling to do so. These people might enter the Primordial Realm in the future. If he challenged them now, it was very likely that he would become enemies in the future.
Lin Zhen walked along the line. Along the way, it was an eye-opener for Lin Zhen.
The Galactic Beast team was the most bizarre. Some of them were unwilling to show themselves in human form. To many warriors, having the Galactic Beast bloodline was an honor and something worth showing off.
They would even maintain their Galactic Beast form during normal times.
After walking past this beast team, Lin Zhen had the illusion that he had entered a rare zoo.
Roar, roar ~! Another guy who got in through the back door. Shameless! "A huge saber-toothed tiger spoke human language and complained to Lin Zhen, who was passing by.
"Gutless brat. Challenge me if you can! I can't stand people like you who get in through connections. You're the scum of the warriors. "A two-headed demonic wolf spoke with a fiery temper.
"Come on, come on! Gutless bandit! I'm going to crush your balls! "A strong white ape broke a stick with his knee and demonstrated to Lin Zhen.
"Brother, brother, who are you looking for? Can you bring me over to take a look? I can be your girlfriend. "
A beautiful red fox wagged her tail and winked at Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen had no choice but to speed up and shake off all the harassers. Soon, he reached the front of the team.
"Brother Lin! Over here! "
Seeing that the Heavenly Gate was right in front of him, Lin Zhen finally heard voices.
In the crowd, he saw Han Sha.
Han Sha's realm was also at the peak of the Black Hole Realm. It was not that easy to enter the Nebula stage. People like Lin Zhen's family were still very rare. After all, with the help of someone as strong as Lin Zhen, they would have too many advantages over others.
Lin Zhen lamented a little. Han Sha, who had been so glorious in the past, now looked a little down and out. At the very least, his strength was insignificant in this vast Great Cosmos.
