In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
In the Star-Seizing Manor, the three transcendent powers gathered. However, the number of participants this time around was much smaller than before.
After all, there was a limit to the number of participants allowed to enter the secret realm.
For the White Deer Institute, Qin Wentian, Bailu Yi, and ten other participants made up a total of twelve participants.
For the Watermoon Mountain Villa, the three brothers of the Li Clan and eight others made up a total of eleven participants.
As for the Demon Cult, because only the young man who participated in the exchange had survived, they added another six participants, making up a total of seven participants.
The three transcendent powers had a total of thirty participants. Six of them were Divine Inscriptionists, while the others were all powerful Yuanfu cultivators. For example, other than Qin Wentian and Bailu Yi, the rest were all at the ninth level of Yuanfu. With the White Deer Institute's many years of history, it wasn't difficult to find ten Yuanfu cultivators. Not only that, their combat prowess was exceedingly high.
Especially Bailu Jing, a ranker in the Heavenly Fate Rankings. He was the leader of the White Deer Institute.
"Little Brother Qin, if you encounter any difficulties in the secret realm, let's work together to resolve them." At this moment, the three brothers of the Li Clan turned their gazes onto Qin Wentian as they greeted him.
"Uncle Li is right. We don't have many Divine Inscriptionists, we naturally have to work together." Qin Wentian nodded his head. They were the scouts for the secret realm, but their strength was considered to be on the weaker side. But if they wanted to venture deeper into the secret realm, it would be much more convenient for them to have Divine Inscriptionists with them.
"You're all here." At this moment, a voice drifted over from the top of the city walls. After which, the crowd inclined their heads and saw Yang Fan leading a group of twenty experts walking over. All of their auras were extremely powerful and when their gazes swept over, a terrifying sharpness could be felt in their eyes.
This time around, the members of the Star-Seizing Manor were all elites at the Yuanfu Realm.
The stronger one was, the greater their chances of success would be.
The sharp-looking middle-aged man from back then also appeared. He was the one leading the group today. He waved his hands and stated, "Since we're all here, let's move out."
"Yes." Everyone nodded as they soared up into the air.
A group of figures, majestically headed towards a certain location in the Moon Continent.
The Refinement Grounds of Divine Inscriptions was one of the eighteen Refinement Grounds of Grand Xia. It was on par with the Refinement Grounds of the Spirit Beasts and the Refinement Grounds of Celestial Souls that Qin Wentian had entered before.
For the Spirit Beast Refinement Grounds, there were many transcendent powers that had entrances to it. The Spirit Beast Refinement Grounds was controlled by Fairy Qingmei of the Celestial Lake Palace.
As for the secret realm of Divine Inscriptions, because it was located in the Moon Continent, it was under the control of the four transcendent powers of the Moon Continent.
Of the four transcendent powers in the Moon Continent, the Star-Seizing Manor of the Eastern Region, the Skyember Sect of the Southern Region, the Pill Emperor Hall of the Central Region, and the Hua Clan of the Northern Region. Only the Western Region didn't have a transcendent power.
The location of the Refinement Grounds for Divine Inscriptions was located in the Western Regions of the Moon Continent. This place was also known as the Western Desert.
In the Western Desert, yellow sand covered the earth, causing it to glow with a golden hue. As far as the eye could see, there was no end to it.
Gusts of wind blew past, causing the golden earth to emit rustling sounds. For thousands of miles, not a single human silhouette could be seen. The entire place was filled with an aura of desolation.
And right in this quiet and desolate Western Desert, in a certain space, a black dot suddenly appeared. As the black dot drew nearer, an aura of destruction permeated the air, as the whistling sounds of the wind were exceptionally ear-piercing to the ears.
In the blink of an eye, the black dot transformed into a black-colored tempest. The sky abruptly turned pitch black, and the oppressive pressure of the tempest made people feel as though it was the end of the world.
The yellow sand was swept into the air, dancing together with the tempest. If there was someone here, they would definitely know that this was the black tempest that would appear once in a while in the Western Desert.
However at this moment, a group of silhouettes could be seen moving together with the tempest, heading towards the depths of the Western Desert.
"How unlucky, to have to encounter this damnable tempest." One of the silhouettes cursed in a low voice, feeling somewhat depressed. This group of people exuded an extraordinary aura, they were none other than those who were rushing towards the Refinement Grounds of Divine Inscriptions.
The person in the lead was a young man with a muscular physique. His countenance was etched with a hint of arrogance, and his entire body exuded a tyrannical aura. His countenance involuntarily gave off a sense of imposingness.
This person's name was Zhao Lie, and just like his name, his personality was like a raging inferno. He was a Heaven's Chosen from the Skyember Sect, and one of the four Heaven's Chosen of the Moon Continent, ranked # 28 on the Heavenly Fate Ranking.
Among the four Heaven's Chosen, Zhao Lie was ranked last, but he had never been willing to admit defeat. At this moment, an intense heat could be seen flickering in his eyes. He'd heard that Yang Fan and Zhan Chen had also come this time around. He truly wanted to see how strong were these two Heaven's Chosen who were ranked higher than him on the Heavenly Fate Rankings. Had they already broken through to the Heavenly Dipper Realm?
"What a pity that Hua Taixu didn't come this time around. I won't be able to witness the glory of the top ranker of the Heavenly Fate Rankings. But with Zhan Chen, Yang Fan, Bailu Jing and the rest, this trip won't be too boring." Zhao Lie walked out from the tempest, his voice filled with pride. His eyes were like a ball of fire that blazed.
In the vast Moon Continent, other than the four Heaven's Chosen, there were also several other rankers on the Heavenly Fate Rankings, such as Bailu Jing from the White Deer Institute. Among these people, there were both young and old, and this time around, there would definitely be quite a few who would enter the Refinement Grounds of Divine Inscriptions. In addition to that rumor, how could Zhao Lie not be filled with anticipation?
Increasing his speed, Zhao Lie finally saw an ancient desert city in front of him. This ancient city occupied an extremely vast area, as though it had been excavated by someone.
In all four directions of the ancient city, there were many experts guarding it. These were none other than the transcendent powers of the Moon Continent. They were all here to guard the entrance to the Refinement Grounds of Divine Inscriptions.
At the front of the ancient desert city, there were many silhouettes that were divided into three camps. With a single glance, Zhao Lie knew which power these people belonged to.
"Haha, Zhan Chen, Yang Fan, how have you been?" Zhao Lie laughed. Momentarily, Zhan Chen from the Pill Emperor Hall and Yang Fan from the Star-Seizing Manor both turned their gazes towards Zhao Lie.
Zhan Chen smiled, "Brother Zhao Lie, how have you been recently?"
As for Yang Fan, he didn't say anything. It was as though this was his personality, he didn't like to speak too much.
"Since I knew you guys were coming, how could I not be well?" Zhao Lie's voice was extremely loud. His gaze then shifted to the Hua Clan's camp, locking onto a certain person as he laughed, "Hua Taixu didn't come, but you did. Now, does the Hua Clan want to nurture a second Hua Taixu?"
The young man from the Hua Clan inclined his head, his eyes gleaming with sharpness as he stared at Zhao Lie.
This young man was named Hua Feng, and his cultivation base was naturally at the peak of Yuanfu. Not only that, he was ranked # 60 in the Heavenly Fate Rankings. Being able to rank # 60 at such a young age, he could be considered one of the most outstanding characters in the Moon Continent.
As for why he wasn't so dazzling, it was because there was another person in the Hua Clan – Hua Taixu.
With Hua Taixu around, everyone in the Hua Clan lost their splendor. No matter how outstanding they were, they could only serve as foils.
"You still like to talk nonsense." Hua Feng faintly remarked, his words causing a fiery light to flicker in Zhao Lie's eyes. "Not only do I like to talk nonsense, I like to battle as well. I hope you will have the opportunity to spar with me in the future."
"Anytime," Hua Feng indifferently replied, as he shifted his gaze away, no longer bothering with Zhao Lie.
"Zhao Lie, a Heaven's Chosen from the Skyember Sect, ranked # 28 in the Heavenly Fate Rankings. Hua Feng, the most outstanding young man in the Hua Clan other than Hua Taixu, ranked # 60." In the Star-Seizing Manor's camp, Bailu Yi spoke in a low voice to Qin Wentian. She knew that Qin Wentian came from a foreign land, hence she naturally had to introduce some of the more important characters to Qin Wentian.
These people were all people who could summon the wind and summon the rain in the Moon Continent.
Qin Wentian lightly nodded his head. His head was slightly lowered, but he was silently contemplating these outstanding characters in the Moon Continent, especially those from the Pill Emperor Hall and the Hua Clan.
Zhan Chen from the Pill Emperor Hall, ranked # 11 in the Heavenly Fate Rankings. This person exuded a scholarly aura, with an easy-going personality and was easy to get along with. Beside him was his beloved, an extremely beautiful maiden.
Yang Fan from the Star-Seizing Manor, his personality was more taciturn, and he rarely spoke. His countenance was always filled with hints of arrogance, as though no one dared to approach him.
Zhao Lie's personality was as brazen as a raging inferno.
As for Hua Feng, it was still impossible to tell for now. But there was no doubt that these Heaven's Chosen all had their own pride. Even for the extremely calm Bailu Jing, Qin Wentian could sense the pride in his bones.
Pride was born from self-confidence, and in Qin Wentian's bones, wasn't it the same as well?
"Hua Taixu and Hua Xiaoyun didn't appear. However, Bai Fei from the Pill Emperor Hall is here, but Qingcheng isn't here." Qin Wentian felt a tinge of disappointment in his heart. Before he came here, he had also wondered if he would be able to meet Mo Qingcheng. Sadly, Mo Qingcheng wasn't here, but Bai Fei was.
He recognized Bai Fei, yet Bai Fei didn't seem to notice him. Once, Bai Fei told him that he and Mo Qingcheng were people from two different worlds, and told him not to have any wishful thinking.
Now that he had also arrived at the Moon Continent, if Bai Fei were to see him, what would she think of him? Most probably, she would think that Qin Wentian was an idiot.
"Since everyone has arrived, let's not waste any more time and directly enter the Refinement Grounds of the Divine Inscriptions." Beside Yang Chen, the sharp-looking middle-aged man indifferently spoke. Each of the four camps had a powerful expert leading them, and all of them nodded their heads in agreement.
Instantly, a group of guards from the left and right arrived at an ancient gate in front of the ancient city. Both of their hands were condensed into strange ancient seals, and the seals they condensed were all different. After that, they blasted out, slamming into the ancient gate at the front of the ancient city. In an instant, rumbling sounds rang out as the ancient gate opened, and an ancient aura gushed out from within.
After passing through this gate, one would be able to enter the inner parts of the ancient city. Similarly, this was also the destination of the guards, the Refinement Grounds of the Divine Inscriptions!
