"Regardless of your background, all of you are great talents of our God's Palace!"
The Lord God's eyes only stayed on Fang Xing's face for a moment before he looked elsewhere. He glanced around calmly, and everyone in the hall felt that he was looking at them. However, no one was brave enough to raise their heads to look at the Lord God like Fang Xing did. They bowed even lower in awe. Then, the Lord God did not say much. He only said some superficial words, such as "Your loyalty is commendable", and so on. Then, he ordered the grey-robed servant next to him to give them great rewards!
The grey-robed attendants who were standing in the main hall immediately walked up with rosewood trays. There were many small porcelain bottles on the trays. The geniuses in the main hall each took one, thanked loudly, and put it into their sleeves. Fang Xing also took one. He curiously opened the cork and sniffed it. He felt a strong smell of Qi and blood. He didn't have time to identify it, so he put it away.
However, it should be something good. Judging from the joy on the faces of the Shen Clan's talents, it must be of great use.
Judging from the smell of Qi and blood, it should not be elixirs or precious medicines, but healing and life-saving items …
"Thank you for your gift, Lord God. I will do whatever you want!"
When all the rewards had been given out, the grey-robed attendant retreated to the side. The prodigies of the celestial races once again expressed their gratitude and shouted in unison. The human race prodigies were all dumbfounded and didn't seem to understand the rules at all. When they saw the celestial races doing this, they quickly followed suit.
"Haha, I will remember your loyalty!"
After the words of gratitude, the Lord God said lightly, "I want to follow the example of Ancient Heaven and rule the 3,000 Shen Clans. I will use the God's Palace to deter the 3,000 worlds and establish the Eternal God Base. I hope that all of you will work hard and serve the God's Palace wholeheartedly. If there are any meritorious deeds, I will not mistreat you. Whether you are a God, a Human, a Monster, or a Demon, you will all have extraordinary glory, waiting for you to take it …"
Zhu Xiu bowed again when he heard that. "I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
"All of you are great talents of my Divine Court. If you wish to contribute to the Divine Court, why do you have to go through fire and water?"
To everyone's surprise, the Divine Master chuckled and said, "Now, I have a task for all of you to do. If you succeed, all of you can take whatever you want in the universe, including the title of God-King!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the hall became excited. Countless eyes lit up.
The Divine Master was looking for people to do something big. Those who came to see him already knew about it, but they were still excited when they heard it in person. To the Shen Clan's sky-prides, they already knew what the Divine Master wanted to do and knew that they would be rewarded after it was done. However, when they heard that the reward was so great that they could even be crowned as God-King, they were still surprised. After all, they were either the Divine King's son or the Divine King's successor. Although they all had a chance to inherit the Divine King's position, who knew how many years it would take? They might only be a Divine Son or a successor even when they died, which was a long time away …
However, now that the Divine Master had relented, it meant that if they succeeded, they might even be crowned as God-Kings. They couldn't help but be excited. If they really succeeded, wouldn't they have a meteoric rise and be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the other God-Kings?
As for the human cultivators, they were told that there was something they could do for them before they came. If they could do it, they would be able to improve the status of their race in a single step. However, they were still worried, so no one gave them a definite answer. Now that they heard it from the Divine Lord, they knew that it was true, and they were extremely excited.
"I'm willing to share the Divine Master's burden!"
Many people came to their senses at this moment. They stepped forward and asked loudly.
"Haha, there's no hurry. Children of the God Clan, please step back for now!"
He waved his hand gently and ordered the Divine Princes to step aside. Then, he slowly looked at the group of cultivators from the Heaven's Origin Sector. His eyes were deep and he said calmly, "You, the ancestors of the Heaven's Origin Sector, have once offended the God Race and made a huge mistake. You will never be able to atone for your sins. I have already decreed that all living beings of the Heaven's Origin Sector will be slaves to atone for your sins. However, I want to build a God's Palace, so I don't want to hold a personal grudge and ruin the great plan of the world. I also know that you have lost your way and have not committed a serious crime, so I want to show you a way to atone for your sins. I wonder if you, the young generation of the Heaven's Origin Sector, can understand my efforts?"
The hearts of the living beings of Tian Yuan trembled when they heard that. They felt an invisible pressure descending, scaring them so much that they tried their best to lower their heads.
"This old b * stard. He's still pretending to be obedient after getting what he wanted …"
Fang Xing was extremely daring. He wouldn't be able to make him lower his head unless the Divine Master really used his power to suppress him. The Divine Master's prestige alone couldn't make him feel any pressure. However, since the others lowered their heads, he lowered his head too. However, he kept cursing in his heart …
Fortunately, the God Lord only scolded him before he looked away. He continued, "This mission is supposed to be the path for the three thousand young generation of the God Clan to ascend. However, after some consideration, I have decided to give you young generation of Tian Yuan a chance. It's a pity that there are too many of you. I don't need so many people. Regarding this mission, I want to appoint the twelve Minor Saints. The other ten are already fixed. However, there are still two empty spots. I plan to select them from you. I wonder if you are willing to accept my order and serve me?"
"The Twelve Minor Saints?"
The human cultivators were overjoyed when they heard that. They immediately yelled, "Yes!"
They clearly heard that the Divine Master's 12 Minor Saint Deity Positions were specially conferred for this mission. The first 10 people were all geniuses of the Divine Clan. How high was their status? As for the remaining two spots, if they could get them, they would be able to stand side by side with the proud sons of heaven. For the lowly beings of Heaven Yuan, this was a heaven-sent opportunity!
"The Divine Positions and Divine Pets cannot be easily appointed. This is my goal. Whether you can succeed or not will depend on yourselves!"
The Divine Master waved his sleeve, and the gray-robed elders once again stepped forward with purple plates. On each plate was a banner!
To the side, a gray-robed elder sternly said, "When the Divine Master descends, all races bow their heads. However, the Divine Master's decree has already arrived in Heaven Yuan, yet there are still people who are stubborn and do not respect the decree. This can be called a disease of the mustard. Today, the Divine Master has decreed that all of you can take the banner and attack the forbidden area in one month. No matter what method you use, the top two who break through the forbidden area within one month will be rewarded with the title of Twelve Minor Saint Kings!"
"Mm?"
Whether it was Fang Xing, Zhao Yatong, or the others, they were all stunned by these words, their faces filled with disbelief.
They had originally thought that the Divine Master would select the best from among them, let them fight or even put their lives on the line so that he could choose the strongest to carry out this important mission. They hadn't expected the Divine Master to directly give them the banner and order them to attack the forbidden area …
It had to be said that the forbidden area in the God Clan's mouth was the spark in the eyes of the Heaven Yuan Race!
The Divine Master actually wanted them to attack the forbidden area …
Even if they were willing, they didn't have the ability!
Just what kind of existence was the master of the forbidden area? How could they, juniors, provoke him?
Many of the God Race's prodigies smiled knowingly when they heard about this mission …
The Divine Master was truly worthy of being the Divine Master. With just this matter, he had cut off all the escape routes of the Heaven Yuan Race!
It was impossible to guarantee the loyalty of these traitors from the Heaven Yuan Race. If they used blood contracts or divine contracts to control them, it would be disadvantageous to the ambitious Divine Master who planned to establish the Divine Court of the Thirty-Three Heavens. Moreover, it would be very easy for others to take advantage of this loophole. After all, human cultivators were famous for having all sorts of magical abilities and techniques that were difficult to describe. Even the strictest contract could be broken by others. But if they couldn't be trusted and couldn't rest assured in using them to carry out this important mission …
Then, whether it was intentional or not, the Divine Master came up with this idea.
He would order them to attack the forbidden area!
One was a test, and the other was a show of loyalty …
After attacking the forbidden area, they would undoubtedly forever stand on the opposite side of the Heaven Yuan Race, and it would be difficult to turn back!
At that time, it would be hard for them to not be loyal to the Divine Court!
"Okay, give me a banner!"
Fang Xing had also seen through the Divine Master's intentions, but he didn't even think about it. He walked forward and took a banner. Although the Divine Master's decision was very unexpected, he had no other choice. He had already promised the Desolate Bone Palace and walked this path. What he did was not up to him. He had to take the banner first!
Just like him, Zhao Yatong also walked up, taking a banner and holding it in her hand.
The two looked at each other. Zhao Yatong seemed to want to say something, but Fang Xing ignored her. With a faint smile, he returned to his original position.
After that, Zhangsun Qingliu and some of the more outstanding cultivators among the human cultivators went up to retrieve the banners and retreated to a corner.
At a glance, there were five or six people who had taken the banners. Obviously, they were ready to fight for the Small Saint position of the God Race.
The others, on the other hand, felt that their strength was inferior, so they gave up on this opportunity.
"Very good. The day you break through the forbidden area will be the day my Divine Court is bestowed the title of Sainthood!"
The Divine Master seemed extremely satisfied. He glanced at the people who had taken banners and lightly nodded his head in approval.
"You Heaven Yuan Race, you may withdraw and begin planning for the attack on the forbidden area!"
The gray-robed elder spoke. All the Heaven Yuan Race in the hall bowed to the Divine Master and silently withdrew. It was clear that the Divine Master's conundrum was far too difficult. Given their cultivations, all of them had heavy hearts. After leaving the hall, Zhao Yatong went to Fang Xing's side and sincerely said, "Brother Fang, the forbidden area is difficult to defeat. We must plan well. In my humble brother's opinion, why don't we join hands and first resolve our internal conflicts? Then we can gather the wisdom of the masses and discuss the grand plan …"
"There's no need, I already have a plan in mind!"
Fang Xing still had the same attitude of not wanting to interact with them. He chuckled and left on his own.
Zhangsun Qingliu came over. Gazing at Fang Xing's departing figure, he sneered, "That demon has always been arrogant and conceited, but he doesn't know that the Divine Master's decree is not aimed at us, but at the factions behind us. If we attack the forbidden area, even the weakest of the forbidden areas, how could a single person do it? He wants to fight with us alone, that's just courting death! "
