Eternal Night Primogenitor was a peak Ascended God expert from Eternal Night Sect 100,000 years ago. His real name was Long River, and he was the 37th sect master of Eternal Night Sect. After becoming primogenitor, he named himself Eternal Night. Ever since Eternal Night Primogenitor appeared, Eternal Night Sect's status in the immortal world rose. Even though Eternal Night almost never came into contact with Eternal Night Sect, Eternal Night Sect still saw him as their true god. Seeing Eternal Night Primogenitor appear, everyone present knelt on the ground in excitement and cheered loudly.
"Rise, everyone."
Eternal Night Primogenitor said calmly, but he didn't intentionally look at Eternal Night Sect. In his eyes, everything seemed indifferent. He had no desires, and he didn't care about anything.
"Thank you, Primogenitor!"
Everyone cheered and stood up.
Primogenitor slowly landed in the huge open area in the center, where the stone stele was about to be unsealed.
Since the primogenitor had arrived, the stone stele would definitely appear as well.
As expected, not long after the primogenitor arrived, the center of the ruins lit up. The ground cracked, and a large amount of light shot out from the cracks, accompanied by an incomparably dense ancient power.
"It's out!!"
Someone exclaimed.
The surrounding immortals fixed their eyes on it, feeling it with their hearts. The ancient power was like a gust of wind blowing on everyone's faces, it was so dense and profound. The immortals greedily absorbed the ancient power, but it had come too suddenly and too fiercely. They could only sense how powerful and shocking it was, but they couldn't comprehend it in such a short time.
Rumble …
At this moment, the ground suddenly trembled, and the cracks suddenly closed up. At the center, a huge hole appeared in everyone's line of sight, accompanied by a ray of seven-colored light. This light was like a heavenly pillar, piercing through the sky. Very soon, there seemed to be a huge stone tablet faintly discernible within the heavenly pillar …
"It's here!! The ancient stone stele has appeared!! "
Everyone stood up excitedly, staring at the heavenly pillar. They couldn't move their eyes away.
"Only one person can enter the Heavenly Pillar of Light. Not only will you be able to get a glimpse of the intent on the stone tablet, but you'll also be able to feel the countless ancient mysterious powers contained within the Heavenly Pillar of Light. The benefits are simply indescribable. If you can enter, you'll have no regrets in life!!"
"However, it's useless to enter such a miraculous place for too short a period of time. If it's too long, it'll be difficult. The stone tablet only appears once every hundred thousand years. It's too short …"
"Actually, although the stone tablet has appeared, we can't enter it yet. There are still thirty days before it opens! What we see now is only an incomplete stone tablet. In 30 days, the stone tablet will be truly opened. Only then will immortals be allowed to enter! "
"What? It's not really open yet? So now … "
"Now, we're just taking advantage of the fact that it's about to open to select people to enter the Heavenly Pillar of Light to comprehend the stele."
"I see …"
Eternal Night Primogenitor stared at the pillar of light for a long time before turning around. Looking at the sea of immortals around him, he said calmly, "The opportunity has appeared. Everyone, please prepare yourselves. According to the rules set by our ancestors, I will conduct the selection ceremony for those who can comprehend the stone tablet. This selection will be conducted in a fair manner. If there are any despicable acts that violate the rules, the punishment will be the wiping of one's soul. This will not be tolerated. I hope you all will behave yourselves."
Eternal Night's emotionless voice caused everyone's hearts to tighten. Wiping out one's soul? That meant completely killing. How harsh.
The primogenitors didn't need to care about anyone's feelings. If they sincerely wanted to host this competition, it would naturally be absolutely fair and just.
Eternal Night began to announce the rules of the competition. The rules he mentioned were also the rules that had been used in previous competitions. The immortals had unanimously agreed that there wouldn't be any loopholes.
"The competition will be divided into three rounds. The time limit is thirty days. There are no restrictions on those who can participate. As long as you are an immortal, you can participate regardless of your cultivation. But first, I have to make one thing clear. The competition will be conducted with one's full strength. During the competition, there are no restrictions on the methods used. Therefore, it is common for people to lose their lives and have their cultivation crippled. In the previous competitions, there were countless immortals who lost their lives and their cultivation crippled. Therefore, you all must be mentally prepared to consider whether or not to participate in the competition! After all, there are only two slots. Of course, other than the right to comprehend the stone tablet, I will choose another ten people to be my in-name disciples. I will teach them for ten days. In these ten days, I will impart all the knowledge I have gained after reaching the primogenitor realm. Although the effect might not be better than the stone tablet, it shouldn't be too far off! "
Eternal Night Primogenitor said calmly. As the sound of his voice faded, everyone was incomparably excited.
The teachings of the primogenitor were naturally something that could only be chanced upon and not sought. Including the right to comprehend, there were twelve slots. It looked like a lot, but with the millions of people present, the number was pitifully small.
"You all already know the general rules of the competition, right? Now, let's begin the first round. "
Eternal Night Primogenitor said indifferently. He then leaped into the air and flew into the sky. His hand turned into a palm and lightly slapped downwards. A mysterious primogenitor's power seeped out from his palm and gently struck the ground below. The ground started to change and gave birth to many gigantic palaces. In the blink of an eye, in the central region, he used the primogenitor's power to form a gigantic city. The city seemed to be completely made out of gold, it was noble and luxurious, with a resplendent golden light, anyone who looked at it would be deeply attracted.
Su Yun looked around and realised that outside the palace in the city, there was a statue standing there, the statue just happened to block the entrance of the palace, as though it was guarding the palace. Every statue was different, there were those with the head of a horse and the body of a human, there were those with the wings of a wild lion, there were also those with the form of a human, and there were also those with the form of a beast.
"This is the Gold Sacred City, if any of you participated in the previous Large Competition, you should not be unfamiliar with it. This was not created by me, but by a peerless expert who had comprehended the city. No one knows where that expert is now, but there is no need to doubt his ability. He created this city and hid some of his own cultivation techniques and methods in the city's palace. Other than him, there are two other people who have also placed their own cultivation techniques and experiences inside. There are a total of fifty palaces here, and every single one of them is guarded by a powerful mechanical immortal beast. If you are able to successfully defeat the mechanical immortal beast and obtain the inheritance inside, you will be able to enter the second round of the competition!"
Eternal Night Primogenitor said slowly.
His words were like a bomb, causing the hearts of all the immortals present to tremble. They could not believe their own ears.
This golden city was a treasure left behind by the ancestor? This was too crazy! This was too crazy! If he could obtain the treasures of a palace, what kind of convenience would it bring to his cultivation?
Su Yun could clearly feel that the breathing of the immortals around him had become hurried, and everyone's eyes were filled with a dense passion.
"I want to make it clear in advance, it is best for those below the God Realm to not enter. Of course, if you are confident in your own strength, you can enter, but you will have to bear the consequences yourself!"
Eternal Night Primogenitor said indifferently, then shouted loudly: "Then, I will now announce the first round of the Stone Monument Competition, Gold Sacred City! Now open, the Large Competition begins! "
His voice spread out in all directions, shaking everyone's eardrums, shaking everyone's hearts … Their souls!
The Large Competition had begun!
Clang!
The halo around the Gold Sacred City suddenly flickered, following that, the restrictions around the Gold Sacred City suddenly disappeared, and it was completely opened.
When the surrounding immortals saw this, they scrambled to be the first to rush inside.
There was a limit to how long the restrictions could be opened, if one did not enter at the first moment, they would be disqualified. However, after passing through the restrictions and entering the Gold Sacred City, people would directly crash into a layer of spatial barrier behind the restrictions. The spatial barrier would automatically activate when the immortals collided with it, and the people who collided with it would randomly be transported to any place in the Gold Sacred City. Thus, people who came in groups could not travel together in the Gold Sacred City, unless they were extremely lucky to meet each other in the gigantic Gold Sacred City.
"Let's go!"
Star Sage stared at the Gold Sacred City with a burning gaze and bellowed. The experts of the Star Pavilion all stood up.
"It's time to show off our skills! Haha! "Divine Lion King laughed out loud, and brought the experts of the Divine Lion Sect in.
"All of you stay here, I will go in alone." Seven Emotions Goddess smiled at the people of the Seven Emotions Palace, then leaped and floated towards the Gold Sacred City.
"Seven Emotions Palace Mistress, shall we go together?"
Wine King Pavilion's Yi Tian Xing smiled, but he was just joking. This time, the Wine King Pavilion did not dare to slack off. He drank a few mouthfuls of divine wine that increased his power, then also rushed towards the Gold Sacred City.
"In the first round, no matter what, we must find a way to obtain the inheritance of an almighty," Ancient Era Sect's Gu Xin shouted in a low voice, then rushed towards the Gold Sacred City.
"You better not provoke me!"
Selfless Sword coldly swept his gaze over the immortals present. One man with one sword, he leaped forward, his aura piercing through the sky, and crashed into the Gold Sacred City.
A sacred path led to the Gold Sacred City, and on the sacred path, a figure lightly stepped on it. It was a genius of the Divine Path, a Dao Disciple.
Experts rushed towards the Gold Sacred City, and they were all fighting to be the first, but they were also extremely excited.
Leng Xinru led a few experts of the Ancient Celestial Gods Council, and accompanied by Loose Immortal Drunk Happy, as they unhurriedly advanced towards the Gold Sacred City.
"All the palaces are mine, a bunch of ants! How dare you have such thoughts! "Leng Xinru said coldly.
The Ancient Celestial Gods Council had always been tyrannical, and this time, Leng Xinru did not plan to be polite.
Tyrants stood in great numbers, and experts were as many as the clouds, but in Su Yun's eyes, it was an endless challenge, causing his blood to boil, and he was extremely excited.
"Let's go!"
Su Yun bellowed. Dao Shi Heavenly Emperor and Hao Zu nodded, then followed Su Yun and flew towards the Gold Sacred City.
The first battle of the Large Competition had finally begun.
