They were the primes of the various sacred grounds!
After receiving the summons from Saint Martial City, the primes, whether they were in seclusion or fighting for resources for their sacred grounds, all put down what they were doing and rushed to Heaven's Elysium.
Heaven's Elysium was the core pillar of the human race, and no faction would go against its summons.
Even at critical moments, when fighting for resources, they would resolutely put down what they were doing.
It had been tens of thousands of years since Heaven's Elysium had issued a summons.
However, no one would forget that once Heaven's Elysium issued a summons, they would unconditionally obey.
After all, every decision Heaven's Elysium made was related to the safety of the human race.
As primes of the sacred grounds, they were aware of the human race's situation. If they didn't obey Heaven's Elysium's orders, the human race could be wiped out.
Once Heaven's Elysium collapsed, the human race would be exposed to countless greedy eyes.
At that time, the human race would be wiped out!
Compared to this, how insignificant were the benefits of their respective Holy Lands?
Under the gazes of the primes, several figures slowly walked out from the hall in front of them.
When they saw those figures, reverence surged onto the faces of all the Saint Lords in the square. They lowered their noble heads and bowed respectfully to those figures.
Among those figures, the one at the front was the previous sanctum master, Tian Wuming!
Behind him were the Moon Palace's Patriarch, Gong Quoqing, and the Sky Martial Sect's Patriarch, Wu Ji.
Qin Yichen, Su Hua, and the others who had rushed back quietly followed behind them and walked to the plaza.
The gazes of the many Sacred Masters on the square quickly gathered on Qin Yichen's body. As they looked at his young face, they began to whisper to each other.
"That kid is Qin Yichen?"
"He's a Saint at such a young age. Only freakishly talented fellows like Bo Wanyang can compare to him."
"I heard that Bo Wanyang was defeated by him. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he's the strongest among our younger generation."
"However, he is still too young. Although his potential is boundless, with his little cultivation, he is unable to protect our clan."
News of Qin Yichen had long spread throughout the human race, and Heaven's Elysium had even announced that he would be the next potentate.
With regards to his monstrous talent, no one doubted his potential.
However, the Human Race was currently in troubled times and the situation was extremely grim. Such a young junior was probably not enough to intimidate the other races!
In the past, there had never been a Palace Lord with such a cultivation level!
Qin Yichen clearly heard the whispers, but he didn't show any displeasure.
This was because the worries of these Sacred Lords were indeed true.
With his current strength, it would be difficult for him to even protect himself against Giants, let alone protect the human race!
"Greetings, Prefecture Lord and Patriarchs!"
As Tian Wuming came to a stop, the many Sacred Lords on the square bowed to him and spoke respectfully.
"It's our clan's fortune that all of you could make it here."
Tian Wuming's gaze swept across the crowd. Looking at the thousand Sacred Masters in front of him, he smiled with relief.
In fact, in terms of racial strength, the Human Race wasn't inferior to any of the top races!
Among the top fighting forces, there were the Omnipotent Beings. Below the Omnipotent Beings, there were three top magnates and thousands of Saint Masters!
Moreover, this was only the strength on the surface!
Perhaps only the few Supremes in Heaven's Elysium knew how many hidden Saints there were in the Human Race!
Once the most dangerous time arrived, they would definitely be a force to be reckoned with!
Looking at the old man in front of them, the thousands of Sacred Lords' eyes were moist. Facing this old man who had selflessly protected the Human Race for more than twenty thousand years, they were filled with heartfelt admiration and respect!
"I've gathered all of you here today to pass on the position of potentate."
Tian Wuming's gaze swept across the square as his old voice rang out. There was a hint of exhaustion in his voice.
Hearing this, the expressions of the hundreds and thousands of Sacred Lords froze.
Although they had already guessed the purpose of Heaven's Elysium's gathering, when they heard the news, the last strand of hope in their hearts was completely shattered.
Under Tian Wuming's protection, the Human Race hadn't suffered any large-scale invasions in the past twenty thousand years. Who didn't hope that Tian Wuming could continue to protect the Human Race?
With him here, even if the news of his impending death spread, no race would dare to be the first to stick their heads out.
Half a year ago, Heaven's Elysium had announced that Qin Yichen would be the next potentate.
Looking at the young man standing not far behind Tian Wuming, countless people couldn't help but frown slightly.
Although they acknowledged Qin Yichen's potential, if they passed on the position of potentate to him in such a dangerous situation, they were afraid that countless other races would madly invade the Human Race!
In fact, there might even be voices of resistance within the Human Race.
After all, it was difficult for a young man with the strength of a beginner Saint to convince the old men.
"Everyone, don't worry. Before Qin Yichen becomes a Magnate, Gong Kuangqing and Wu Ji will lead the Human Race. Once this kid becomes a Magnate, he can be considered the true potentate."
As if he could see through everyone's worries, Tian Wuming smiled faintly.
Hearing this, the Sacred Lords nodded.
Gong Kuangqing and Wu Ji were the Patriarchs of Moon Palace and Tianwu.
Their strength was comparable to Elder Jian's, and each had their own merits. They were the top Magnate in the Human Race, and besides the previous potentate, they were the two strongest people in the Human Race!
If the previous potentate's time was really up, they would have to step forward and take on the responsibility of protecting the Human Race!
"Open the Stairway to Heaven, and worship the ancestral spirits!"
As Tian Wuming's voice rang out, powerful True Yuan whizzed out from the hands of Gong Kuangqing, Wu Ji, and a Swordfeather Magnate beside them, and shrouded the Stairway to Heaven.
Hum …
With the injection of the three True Yuan, the Stairway to Heaven shook violently, and a bright light burst out from it.
Amidst this bright light, one could vaguely see a dragon silhouette rising. A mighty and righteous aura also filled this world.
