"Yuan Gate's Chu Qingtian! Sky Sword Sect's Gu Xing! "
"Too powerful. Just this aura alone is enough to make me unable to resist. The four top geniuses are too powerful …"
"Of course. Chu Qingtian, Wu Ruochen, and Gu Xing are the three most monstrous geniuses of the top ten sects. Although Xia Youyou has surpassed them, it is only in terms of cultivation level. If nothing goes wrong, they will definitely trigger Heaven's Punishment and step into the Incarnation Realm. With their accumulation, they will not be in any danger after passing the Heaven's Punishment. I just don't know who will rank higher in this test. "
"It will definitely be Chu Qingtian! A month ago, Chu Qingtian killed a peak Early Incarnation Realm demonic cultivator. His combat power is unfathomable. It is said that he will be the commander of the Eastern Continent for this trial in the Sky City! "
"Senior brother, what does this commander mean? When I saw the information, I was very confused. Are we going to be restricted when we enter? This is a precious place for training … "
"It is definitely impossible to restrict them completely. The main goal is to unite against the outside world. I also heard from the Great Elder that the Sky City opens once every hundred years. In fact, it is a clash between the geniuses of the Eastern Continent, Western Continent, and Southern Sea Islands. Other than our sect disciples, there are also many rogue cultivators and demonic cultivators. The competition is very intense, not only within the Eastern Continent, but also with the Western Continent and Southern Sea Islands. Therefore, in the past few hundred years, it has become a tradition. Every time the Sky City opens, the top ten Rank 9 sects of the Eastern Continent will choose the strongest commander in advance. Once a group conflict occurs, we must unite against the outside world! "
…
"Wu Ruochen, you are early! We agreed that the three of us will meet up, but you came alone. It seems that you are not convinced by me as the commander? "
Chu Qingtian and Gu Xing obviously came together. While they were still in the void, their eyes swept across the thousands of cultivators and locked onto Wu Ruochen in the crowd. His voice was not loud, but it was filled with a natural arrogance. It floated clearly into everyone's ears, and it was full of hostility.
"Convinced by you? Ridiculous. You are just the commander appointed by the top ten sects. Everything depends on your strength. What right do you have to convince me? When the Sky City appears, I will defeat you in the pagoda tablet ranking. During the Inter-Sect Competition, I will completely defeat you! "
"Haha, you are overestimating yourself! I, Chu Qingtian, will let you know that I am worthy of my title as a commander! During the inter-sect competition, I will convince you even more! "
"We'll see!" Wu Ruochen said proudly.
Disdain flickered in Chu Qingtian's eyes. He no longer paid attention to Wu Ruochen and swept his gaze across the crowd. A powerful pressure was released as he said, "I'm Chu Qingtian from the Yuan Gate. I believe that most people here should know who I am. "I won't waste any more words. This time, I, Chu Qingtian, am indebted to the Immortal Alliance for thinking highly of me and being appointed as the Commander. Naturally, I have to consider the honor of the Eastern Continent. No matter who obtained the qualifications to enter, they would have to unite against the outside world! Once a large-scale conflict breaks out, I hope you won't shrink back. That will only weaken our strength! When Sky City appears and the qualified disciples are confirmed, they can come to me to receive a Communication Talisman. If you encounter a valuable treasure that you can't get your hands on, you can contact me. I'll choose to inform others to help you. I, Chu Qingtian, will make sure that you're satisfied with the distribution of benefits! Especially Golden Core disciples! Obtaining the right to enter only proves that you have great potential, not that you are strong. To put it bluntly, you will only be trampled upon if you go in! Don't lose your life for profit! "
…
"Did you hear that?" Chen Xue sent a voice transmission to Chen Hao. "I have more or less entered the Nascent Soul Realm. Your late-stage Golden Core Realm is too low. There are 500 to 600 peak-stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivators here. There are 3,000 above the Nascent Soul Realm. The rest are basically at the peak of the late-stage Golden Core Realm and half-step Nascent Soul Realm. After you go in, you have to be careful. You won't be a match for any late-stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Don't lose your life for treasures. "
"My goal is to gain experience. As long as I don't snatch treasures, it won't be a big problem. As for you, even if you don't snatch treasures, I'm afraid you will be in a lot of trouble. "Chen Hao looked at Chen Xue and said.
Chen Hao knew that although those with great potential could enter the Mirage Desert, the most suitable ones were those at the peak of the late-stage Nascent Soul Realm. After all, they would enter the same space. Even if a Golden Core Realm cultivator ranked high in the test and could enter, they would only be trampled upon by those Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. No matter how strong Chen Hao was, he couldn't change this fact. The only thing he could do was to keep a low profile and not fight for treasures. This was also the reason why there were more Nascent Soul Realm cultivators than Golden Core Realm cultivators. Furthermore, the Golden Core Realm cultivators who came here basically came with the core disciples of the sect.
"I don't want anyone to see me. Even Chu Qingtian and the rest can forget about seeing me. Alright, let's cultivate and adjust ourselves to the best state. The City in the Sky should appear soon. Don't hide during the test. Although the ranking isn't a symbol of one's strength, it is a symbol of one's luck. The higher the ranking, the better the region you will be transported to. Even if you just cultivate there, you will gain a lot … "Chen Xue said.
…
Hiss!
On the second day, at sunset, the sandstorm seal hundreds of miles away suddenly shone with a resplendent seven-colored light. An ancient and mysterious aura instantly spread out and woke up the cultivators who were sitting cross-legged.
"The seal is about to disappear!"
"Phew … I must go in! Even if I don't gain anything, as long as I can enter, it will be an honor! "
"It's time for the test! Although I am at the late-stage Golden Core Realm, this is a test of my potential. I will definitely not be weaker than them! "
The disciples who did not have absolute confidence in entering gritted their teeth. Even the Rank 9 Sects did not have such a mysterious test to test one's potential. They could only judge a disciple's potential subjectively and could not measure it specifically. However, the City in the Sky's test could. There were close to ten thousand cultivators present. Basically, they were all super geniuses from Rank 8 Sects and above. There were very few lone cultivators like Chen Xue. Those from Rank 3 Sects like Chen Hao were even rarer. Even if they were ranked one thousand, it would definitely be an honor.
There were a total of three entrances to the City in the Sky. The Eastern Mainland, the Western Mainland, and the South Sea Islands each had one. The number of cultivators gathered at the other two entrances was no less than that of the Eastern Mainland. It was equivalent to one in ten.
Boom!
After the seven-colored light lasted for half a minute, the terrifying sandstorm seal finally exploded and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. Then, a mirage-like golden city appeared before everyone's eyes from afar. It emitted a grand, vast, and ancient aura. It was like the legendary Heavenly Palace, causing everyone to reveal excited expressions.
At the same time, 300 seven-colored light pillars instantly pierced through the void and split into three directions. There were 100 pillars in each direction and they poured down from the City in the Sky.
100 identical blue towers appeared 100 miles away from Chen Hao and the rest. Each tower had ten floors and exuded a mysterious aura. There were thunderous electric currents surrounding it that made crackling sounds from time to time.
There was a huge silver tower tablet standing above the 100 palaces.
Hiss hiss hiss hiss …
Just when everyone was still immersed in shock, the 100 Testing Towers suddenly released a mysterious light curtain that covered a radius of hundreds of miles and all the cultivators were within it. 100 figures involuntarily rose into the sky and flew to the front of the 10 Testing Towers.
The test had officially begun!
"Azure Valley disciple, Mu Tenghai!"
"Heaven Piercing Sect disciple, Yang Yan!"
"Ling Tian Sect disciple, Duan Yufei!"
"Sectless cultivator, Bai Liyan!"
As the hundred disciples reported their identities one by one, a hundred silver lights flashed from the silver tower stele and entered the glabella of the hundred disciples. One by one, they took a deep breath and stepped into the testing tower with an excited and solemn expression to begin the test.
"How long will this test take? 100 people at a time and 10,000 people in total. I'm afraid it won't end in a few days … "Chen Hao looked at Chen Xue and said.
"Didn't you know the details before you came?"
"No … I only read about it in the sect's information. I don't know the details, "Chen Hao said.
"100 people will be tested each time. The test time varies. Those with poor potential will be eliminated in two to three minutes while those with high potential will be eliminated for a longer time. However, it won't be more than ten minutes. This is because the Testing Tower has a one-minute time limit for each floor. According to past experience, those who can reach the seventh floor have the hope of obtaining the qualification to enter. The eighth floor is basically a piece of cake. Those who can reach the tenth floor and come out from the top of the tower are definitely true geniuses. There are basically a few people from the Eastern Continent, Western Continent, and Southern Sea Archipelago who can do it every time. However, the total number is not more than 20! " Chen Xue said. After a slight pause, she continued, "This Testing Tower tests one's temperament, will, comprehension, combat talent, and physical talent. There are five aspects. Therefore, it places more emphasis on potential rather than strength. Otherwise, with so many people at the peak of the Mastery Nascent Soul Stage, we won't be qualified at all … Someone's coming out! "
After Chen Xue and Chen Hao spoke for a while, a cultivator was ejected from the second floor's exit. It was obvious that he did not even have the potential to step into the third floor.
"Haha … Zhao Chenfeng, with your potential, you should just kill yourself. You can't even reach the third floor and you still have the nerve to come out and embarrass yourself …"
"Hmph! Talk to me when you can reach the third floor! I'm at least at the second floor and I'll pass in the last breath! It's good enough that you can reach the second floor! F * ck! "
"If my ranking is higher than yours, will you kneel down and apologize to me?"
"Sure! If your ranking is lower than mine, kneel down and kowtow to me three times! "
The ejected Zhao Chenfeng was a rogue cultivator at the peak of the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. His strength was definitely strong. However, even he did not expect that he would be so embarrassing. What was even more embarrassing was that his sworn enemy actually looked down on him in public. This made him extremely embarrassed and angry.
Soon, more disciples were ejected. In less than six minutes, at least eighty people were ejected from the fifth floor. Of the remaining twenty people, more than ten were ejected from the seventh floor. When they reached the eighth floor, only four people were left. Duan Yufei was one of them.
(Including today, I owe nine chapters. I'm really sorry. It will probably return to normal around the 17th. At that time, Wu Shan will try his best to repay the debt.
