"Everyone, please look up. This mountain is the second highest peak of Star Picking Island. From the foot of the mountain to the top, there are eight classes."
"The Desolate Class is at the bottom, then the Flood Class is at the top, and the Heaven Class is at the top. Ever since the Sacred Ground of Fallen Star Lake was established, there has never been a lack of people here. If you have good eyesight, you might be able to see the people below the stone tablet."
Lin Zhen looked up and saw that there was indeed a group of people below the Desolate Class' huge stone tablet. However, they were too far away and could not see clearly.
"I will send everyone up to here. From here onwards, the odd-job workers are not allowed to enter. The Fifth Young Master will personally come down to bring you up. You are really lucky. In the past, the Fifth Young Master did not care about such trivial matters."
The odd-job worker turned and left after he finished speaking. The Fifth Young Master, Jin Nuo, was wearing a long white robe and was slowly descending.
"Greetings, Fifth Senior Brother!" Everyone shouted in unison. The people outside called Jin Nuo the Fifth Young Master, but the people in the Sacred Ground called him Fifth Senior Brother.
"You are all here. Follow me up."
Everyone followed behind Jin Nuo in a single file. They felt that the scenery was endless and their eyes were not enough to take in everything.
Looking down from the mountain, the sky was like the vault of heaven and the lake water was rolling. This ancient land was filled with antiquity and mystery.
In the distance, a wave soared into the sky and shot into the dark clouds. A huge white sea dragon let out a melodious dragon roar and drilled into the clouds. Immediately, it brought about a storm in the distance.
Walking to the first stone tablet, Jin Nuo stopped.
There were about a dozen stone tablets here. Each stone tablet was close to a hundred meters in size. There were words, pictures, or abstract things on them. It was impossible to tell what they were.
Jin Nuo stood in front of the crowd and said loudly, "Most of the stone tablets in the Sacred Ground of Fallen Star Lake were left behind by the people in our Sacred Ground. For example, these stone tablets of the Desolate Class were all engraved by the seniors of this class. Each stone tablet recorded the essence of their life's learning. It could be a set of martial arts, a set of sword techniques, or a type of martial arts technique. However, there is one thing in common. The contents of the stone tablets are definitely very profound."
With that, Jin Nuo walked towards a stone tablet.
When the people who were comprehending here saw Jin Nuo coming over, they all stood up and greeted him as Fifth Senior Brother.
"For example, this stone tablet is called the Floating Fire Sword Technique. It was written by the first batch of students from the Desolate Class."
At this moment, a student from the Desolate Class said, "If I want to leave behind a cultivation technique of mine, can I choose a stone tablet to engrave it on?"
Jin Nuo smiled: "Of course, as long as you have the ability."
He pointed at some of the stone tablets behind him. "There are still many blank stone tablets here. I welcome anyone who has the ability to carve anything on the stone tablets, but I'm afraid that you won't be able to do it."
The martial artist who spoke was somewhat unconvinced. Wasn't it just a stone tablet? His finger could shatter mountains, so why would he care about a stone tablet?
Perhaps he wanted to prove himself in front of others, so he strode towards a stone tablet.
The senior students of the desolate class had a mocking look in their eyes, but they did not say anything.
The martial artist walked in front of the stone tablet and raised his hand. After thinking about what he wanted to inscribe, his fingers moved rapidly!
"Ahhhhhh ~!!"
"Pu pu pu pu pu pu ~ ~ ~!!"
Stone chips flew everywhere. The martial artist channeled his Star Power and showed a smug expression.
From top to bottom, this stone tablet was not very big. In just a short while, he had carved many words on it.
However, he still could not do it in one go. He still had to land and take a breather.
After landing, he thought that he would see envious looks, but instead, he saw looks of pity and ridicule.
He suddenly felt that something was wrong and turned around to take a look.
On the stone tablet behind him, the words he had carved were sparse, and they were dispersing rapidly when the wind blew over!
Jin Nuo said indifferently, "What you think you've carved is just the dust on the stone tablet. Other than the dust, you don't have the ability to leave even a trace on the stone tablet!"
"I … I can only carve through the dust?" The martial artist's face was ashen. Obviously, he had suffered a great blow.
Jin Nuo smiled. "You don't have to be depressed. Other than me, no one here has the ability to carve on the stone tablet."
He pointed at Michelle. "He can't."
He then pointed at Dongfang Yu, Sun Yidao and the other Heaven Class students. "They can't either."
He then pointed at Lin Zhen. "He can't either now."
Lin Zhen was stunned. Jin Nuo had mentioned a few Heaven Class students. That was nothing. However, there were also eight people in the Earth Class. He only said that he could not, and he could not do it now.
The subtext of his words was that he could do it in the future.
Seeing the jealousy in Huang Zun and the rest's eyes, Lin Zhen knew that Jin Nuo had made enemies for him. He did not know what Jin Nuo's intentions were, and he could not express anything.
However, Jin Nuo did not feel that there was anything wrong with her actions in the slightest. She continued, "I remember telling you all yesterday that after arriving at the Holy Land, all of you are nothing at all. The Holy Land has only erected these stone tablets after countless years. What kind of people would be able to inscribe these stone tablets? To think that you overestimate yourself the moment you arrive. How disappointing. "
The martial artist's expression was extremely ugly. His arrogance had long been destroyed. He lowered his head and did not dare to make a sound.
The surrounding people also did not dare to speak. Although Jin Nuo looked gentle, he was still the person in charge of the Holy Land. Moreover, his strength was unfathomable. At this moment, no one dared to speak carelessly.
The atmosphere was a little too heavy. At this moment, Lin Zhen suddenly opened his mouth and asked.
"Fifth Senior Brother, what level of strength does one need to be to carve on these stone tablets?"
Jin Nuo glanced over. When he saw that it was Lin Zhen who spoke, his expression softened.
"Good question. I also intend to answer this question. The Holy Land's stone tablets are not so easy to carve on. If you want to carve on these stone tablets, you must first clear the 33 Heavens Pagoda."
Everyone looked at him. This 33 Heavens Pagoda seemed to be very important.
"This is the second highest peak of the Picking Stars Island. At the peak of the highest peak, there is a pagoda above the clouds. This is the 33 Heavens Pagoda. Every level has a guardian. If you defeat the guardian, you can continue to climb. If you want to carve on these stone tablets, you must clear the 20th level. Those below the 20th level have no way of carving on these stone tablets."
Hearing this, everyone became very interested. They couldn't wait to test how many levels they could clear in the 33 Heavens Pagoda with their current strength.
Looking at everyone's eager expression, Jin Nuo smiled and said, "Are you going to overestimate your own strength again? I can tell you clearly that among the one thousand plus people here, the number of people who can clear the first level in one go will not exceed ten! "
No one dared to question Jin Nuo's words. However, when they heard these words, they were still shocked.
If that was the case, what level of strength did one need to clear the highest level of the 33 Heavens Pagoda?
However, Jin Nuo didn't explain too much. "Alright. You can slowly learn about the 33 Heavens Pagoda in the future. However, the most important thing right now is to cultivate. The students of the Desolate Class can stay here and cultivate. However, remember, you are not allowed to cross the arched door above. The other side of the arched door is the meditation area of the Hong Class. However, the people above can come down here to meditate."
"All the students of the Desolate Class can stay here. If there is a dispute over the specific ranking of the stone tablets, it can be settled through the arena. However, it can only be done in the Dimensional Arena. If there is a private fight, the Holy Land will punish you."
After speaking, half of the one thousand plus people stayed behind. The remaining five hundred plus people followed Jin Nuo and continued forward.
After passing through a moon arched door, there were more than twenty stone tablets erected here.
"The stone tablets here were all carved by the students of the Hong Class. On average, there might not be one person who has the ability to carve a stone tablet out of ten thousand batches of students. Since the establishment of the Holy Land, many batches have passed. However, all the students of the Hong Class have only left behind a few stone tablets. How much you can comprehend will depend on your luck."
"Fifth Senior Brother, why are there more stone tablets here than in the Desolate Class?" A student of the Hong Class asked.
"It's very simple. Because the quality of the students of the Hong Class is better than the students of the Desolate Class, the chances of them producing experts are higher. Therefore, there are more stone tablets."
Everyone nodded.
The students of the Hong Class stayed where they were. They couldn't continue forward with Jin Nuo.
At first, some people felt that it was a pity. However, they soon entered a state of selflessness. This was because the stone tablets here were simply too attractive.
Everyone could find a cultivation technique that suited them. Each and every one of them immediately stopped to cultivate.
Most of them stayed behind to comprehend. They didn't dare to challenge others on their own accord. However, there were some who felt that they were strong enough to challenge their seniors. However, these challenges all ended in crushing defeat without exception.
After settling the students of the Hong Class, Jin Nuo led the remaining two hundred plus people and continued forward.
After passing through another arched door, there were about thirty more stone tablets here.
"This is the territory of the Zhou Class. The rules are no different from the previous ones. You can comprehend the stone tablets here, or the stone tablets of the Hong Class and Desolate Class below. However, you can't go any further."
After sending off the students of the Zhou Class, Jin Nuo continued forward. She sent off the students of the Yu Class, the Huang Class and the Xuan Class.
When she reached the Earth Class, there were only sixteen people beside her.
However, there were fifty to sixty stone tablets in the Earth Class. Although there were fewer people in the Earth Class, there were more experts.
There were still dozens of people cultivating in the distance. They didn't seem to notice the arrival of Lin Zhen and the others.
"You guys can stay here. The students of the Sky Class and Earth Class can add me to the Dimensional Universe. You can ask me if you have any questions. However, I advise you not to trouble me over small matters."
Everyone revealed a happy expression. To be able to add this unfathomable Fifth Senior Brother as a friend was an honorable thing.
"There's no need to talk about the rules. You guys can cultivate. Remember, if you don't have great achievements, don't easily challenge the 33 Heavens Pagoda. Otherwise, your confidence will be affected."
After speaking, the students of the Sky Class continued forward. Jin Nuo lagged behind and suddenly appeared in front of Lin Zhen.
She handed a flower to Lin Zhen.
"You are the only World King of this batch. You are the center of attention. However, I hope that you will constantly strive to improve yourself. Although the road ahead is filled with thorns, as long as you persevere, you will eventually be able to bloom a beautiful flower. Just like this thorny flower, I'll give it to you."
Lin Zhen took the flower. Jin Nuo turned and left.
He lowered his head and looked at the flower in his hand. His heart was in turmoil.
