Time flowed by bit by bit, the exhaustion rate of those in the illusion-scape grew greater and greater. And this was only for those with combat prowess that could withstand the attacks of the ferocious beasts. Those who couldn't endure it had long been eliminated.
Six hours later, only a hundred plus people remained in the illusion-scape.
And among these hundred plus experts, those on the ninth peak were all present. The vast majority of those on the eighth peak were also present, while the rest were all from the seventh peak. As for those below, there wasn't a single person left. None of the six immortal mountains were able to remain.
These supreme existences of the immortal realms placed great importance on perception, believing that this was the foundation of stellar martial cultivators. And reality had proven that their emphasis wasn't without reason. Although those with strong perception might not necessarily be powerful, but for stellar martial cultivators, if one's perception was weak, they would definitely not be very strong.
"Indeed, I didn't make a mistake. This man's constellation is akin to an abyss of destruction and actually has the ability to devour, directly devouring those ferocious beasts that attacked him." Deepflame stared at the first young man who ascended the ninth peak. This young man's name was Blackpeak and he was extremely powerful. His constellation was akin to an abyss of destruction, pitch-black, capable of devouring everything.
"The constellations of these four aren't bad. The third one isn't bad either." Someone stared at the third person who ascended the ninth peak. Right now, his ruthlessness was completely revealed. There was actually a screen of resplendent saber light enveloping his entire body. As long as the ferocious beasts neared him, they would all be annihilated.
"The second one isn't bad either. Ten thousand swords cascaded down from his constellation, suppressing everything. Although we can't sense it, the power behind it should be extremely strong. At the very least, in front of those at the same level as him, there are very few who would be able to match him. One must know that his cultivation base is only at the first level of Celestial Phenomenon. This might be his first constellation." An immortal king stared at Qin Wentian as he spoke. These four were the most conspicuous, attracting the attention of others.
However, these immortal kings all had different preferences. Hence, their opinions of these four were different as well. Just like Deepflame and Bai Wuya.
"On the eighth peak, there are also a few more outstanding fellows. Look at that young man in white, he is also at the first level of Celestial Phenomenon. His constellation is also not bad." There was an immortal king whose eyes were golden in color. His eyes gleamed with a terrifying light as he stared at one of the immortal kings on the eighth peak.
"He's indeed very powerful. In the illusory constellation, he's the only one who didn't rely on attacks to persist. In that illusory constellation, he was everywhere, but it was like his true body had never appeared before. No matter how many ferocious beasts tried to kill him, they couldn't kill him."
"Maybe this constellation is the greatest illusion. His true body has never appeared before, and the moment those ferocious beasts attacked, they were all trapped within the illusion, like headless flies. It's truly not easy for someone at the first level of Celestial Phenomenon to be able to manifest such a constellation."
"Myriad Incarnations Immortal King, if you want to determine the victor quickly, I'm afraid you have to increase the strength of your attacks." Deepflame's deep eyes stared at the female Immortal King who had her eyes closed, as though hoping to see the final rankings as soon as possible, to see who could last the longest.
The female Immortal King nodded her head lightly. An instant later, the attacks of all the ferocious beasts in the illusory realm intensified.
At this moment, there were only a hundred people who could persist in the illusory realm. However, these immortal kings naturally wouldn't give up just like that. This was the Eastern Sage Great Emperor's disciple selection, he naturally had to choose the most outstanding one. Only those who could stand out from the rest of the tests would have the qualifications to become the Eastern Sage Great Emperor's disciple.
In addition, there were quite a few outstanding characters among these people. These immortal kings also wanted to accept them as disciples. If the Eastern Sage Great Emperor didn't fancy them, they could also accept them as disciples.
Lu Ziyan couldn't persist any longer at the 97th rank, while Zai Xuan exited at the 73rd rank. Staring at Qin Wentian and the others who were still persisting, both of them had different expressions on their faces.
Zai Xuan's countenance was extremely unsightly to behold. Initially, he wanted to use this chance to get the experts of the Royal Sacred Sect to surround Qin Wentian. But after the second round of tests, other than him, he didn't know how many of them would be able to enter the top hundred. In any case, there was no one left in the illusory realm, and he didn't know if there was anyone who could persist until the 73rd rank to the 100th rank.
Not too long after, those on the seventh peak were all eliminated as well. There were still fifteen participants on the eighth peak, and four participants from the ninth peak.
"The ferocious beasts in the illusory realm seem to have grown stronger." Those who were eliminated silently mused. These fellows were truly demon-level geniuses, to actually be able to persist until now. They were all characters with unrivalled combat prowess at the same cultivation level, they couldn't help but wonder what would happen when they fought against each other.
Qin Wentian and the others had no idea what was happening outside. They only had a single thought in their hearts. Since this was a test personally conducted by the immortal kings, it would naturally be fair. The attacks he endured were the same for the others as well.
Hence, what they needed to do was to try their best to persist for as long as possible.
At this moment, Qin Wentian was still absorbing the astral energy from the Yuan Meteor Stones. However, this rate of absorption was far slower than the rate of consumption. In a battle between stellar martial cultivators, any and all attacks would be based on the consumption of astral energy.
"The attacks of the magma beasts are getting more and more intense." Qin Wentian silently mused. But even so, these magma beasts still couldn't withstand his Sword Slaughter Constellation. Although the attacks of these magma beasts had already reached the second level of Celestial Phenomenon, as long as they neared the Sword Slaughter Constellation, they would still be crushed into pieces.
"These five fellows are truly not bad. The attacks of the magma beasts are getting more and more ferocious, but their constellations are still able to withstand it easily." The Scarce Moon Immortal King laughed. The four participants on the ninth peak, in addition to the one on the eighth peak, were the five that received the most attention. Since the Eastern Sage Great Emperor wanted to accept a disciple, he would most probably choose one of these five.
"Truly not bad, I wonder which of them the Eastern Sage Great Emperor would like." Another immortal king replied. Everyone had their own views and opinions. These five participants all had their own preferences and preferences. Who the Eastern Sage Great Emperor would accept as a disciple, it all depended on who the Eastern Sage Great Emperor found pleasing to his eyes. If the Eastern Sage Great Emperor was satisfied and had good talent, the Eastern Sage Great Emperor would definitely accept them.
Time flowed by, and as the magma beasts grew more and more powerful, more and more participants could no longer endure and were eliminated. However, these five participants were as stable as Mt. Tai.
Que Tianyi's constellation was in the form of moons, exuding a chilling coldness that enveloped his entire body. No magma beasts could even get close to him.
Blackpeak was the first to ascend the ninth peak. The abyss of annihilation could devour everything.
Qin Wentian was the second person to ascend the ninth peak. The sword might from his constellation slammed down, killing everything in its path.
Yi Yang was the third to ascend the ninth peak. The constellation of his constellation was like a hellish saber formation.
Other than these four, there was also a person from the eighth peak who was extremely dazzling. The moment the magma beasts rushed in, they were all trapped within. It was as though he had set up an illusionary realm within the illusionary realm created by the Myriad Incarnations Immortal King.
This person and Qin Wentian were the two that the countless experts in the Royal Sacred Region paid the most attention to. Because, both of them were local geniuses of the Royal Sacred Region.
"Who would have thought that two of the top three rankers of the Immortal Martial Realm would actually be so powerful. The value of the ranking monument this time around is truly high, far surpassing the past. There's no need to say much about the first ranker, Qin Wentian, he was able to stand above the era-suppressing geniuses. As for this Hua Taixu, although he doesn't have too many glorious battle achievements, and is much more low-profile compared to Qin Wentian, he's also extremely powerful. Gu Liufeng has already been missing for a long time, and since the immortal realms exist, there's a high possibility that Gu Liufeng has already gone there."
The spectators of the Royal Sacred Region were all thinking in their hearts. So it turned out that the fifth person who received the most attention from the immortal kings, was none other than the second ranker of the Immortal Martial Realm, Hua Taixu.
Right now, he had also broken through to the Celestial Phenomenon Realm.
"Myriad Incarnations Immortal King, seems like we have to increase the strength of our attacks." Deepflame spoke. The Myriad Incarnations Immortal King shook her head, "No need. Next, we will test their tenacity and see which of them can last longer without knowing the strength of the others."
"Might as well." Deepflame nodded, he didn't say anything more.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Right now, out of the countless stellar martial cultivators on the nine mountains, only five remained. The gazes of the others were all fixated on these five.
How powerful, they were actually able to last until now.
"Next, let's see who can last no longer." Deepflame stared at the five of them. Right now, even the immortal kings had expressions of interest on their faces as they stared below. The ones who persisted until the very end, were indeed the five experts they were looking for.
Behind Que Tianyi, a violet-gold light flashed. That was the color of his astral soul. An incomparably cold and desolate moon hung in the air behind Que Tianyi, causing the radius of the ice seal to expand even further.
Yi Yang was also very powerful. His saber light blazed brilliantly as a screen of light enveloped his body, as though it was indestructible.
On Blackpeak's body, the destructive might of the abyss was terrifying to the extreme. It was as though abyssal flames had appeared.
The illusionary constellation created by Hua Taixu still had no way to break through. Countless lava beasts were trapped within.
Qin Wentian who was sitting cross-legged seemed incomparably demonic, as the power of his bloodline could be faintly felt.
Five days passed and these five people were still persisting, causing the hearts of the spectators to tremble.
Yi Yang frowned. The screen of light around him flickered in and out of existence, as though it was fluctuating. This caused the hearts of the immortal kings in the banquet to tremble. Seems like Yi Yang might be the first to give up.
Reality was just like what they had guessed. After a period of time, Yi Yang opened his eyes. At the very least, he should be able to enter the top three.
"Senior, please let me out." Yi Yang inclined his head as he spoke. As the sound of his voice faded, everything vanished. Yi Yang stood on the mountain peak and glanced to his left and right. His eyes narrowed as an unsightly expression appeared on his face.
The other three on the ninth mountain peak were actually still persisting.
Bai Wuya glanced at Deepflame, but he didn't say anything. That silent gaze of his seemed to be mocking him for his poor judgement.
"The fellow you valued has already released the power of his bloodline earlier, but Que Tianyi and the top ranker haven't. Maybe they still have some trump cards." Deepflame coldly snorted when he saw the look in Bai Wuya's eyes.
