More and more cultivators gathered outside the Rune Tower.
Liu Mengchan had arrived. Everyone looked at her with sympathy because they knew that no matter what the result was, she would be abandoned. She would become the Holy Maiden of the Rune Hall for the shortest time.
Huangfu Song had arrived. Seeing Huangfu Song's aggressive appearance, they all knew that Huangfu Song was here to wait for the result.
If the person in the tower surpassed Liu Mengchan's forty-first floor, it would mean that the Chaos Homeland had only brought back an abandoned Holy Maiden. No, at that time, Liu Mengchan would no longer be the Holy Maiden. She would just be an ordinary disciple of the Rune Hall.
The Right Protector's servant had also arrived. The representatives of the various powers from the Chaos Lands had also arrived. This was going to be a big show.
The audience had arrived and the stage had been set up. Now, all that was left was to see how the final performance would be.
To them, the battle between the Chaos Homeland and the Rune Hall would only be more exciting if there were some surprises. Otherwise, it would be too boring for them to come all the way here just to watch the process.
The Rune Tower lit up from the thirty-first floor to the thirty-fifth floor in the blink of an eye. They all knew that the flow of time inside was different from the outside world.
The blink of an eye in the outside world could be years or even decades inside. The higher the floor, the faster the flow of time.
Soon, the thirty-ninth floor lit up. In just an hour, the thirty-ninth floor had lit up.
The cultivators all looked at Liu Mengchan, but they found that her expression was the same as before. She was neither sad nor happy. This made them a little disappointed.
After all, Liu Mengchan was the Holy Maiden. Being able to see the Holy Maiden shed tears was definitely an enjoyable thing.
However, Liu Mengchan didn't have any expression, let alone tears. Her eyes didn't have the slightest fluctuation.
On the other hand, Huangfu Song was somewhat unable to hold back. Once the thirty-ninth floor passed, it meant that this person would definitely surpass Liu Mengchan.
After all, Liu Mengchan had only reached the forty-first floor.
Time passed as the cultivators waited and discussed. The light of the 40th floor didn't light up after a long time. The discussions outside the Rune Tower gradually died down as all the cultivators waited for the result.
Compared to the wait in the outside world, Ye Tianze appeared to be very relaxed. Although he was currently inscribing Earth-rank array patterns, which consumed twice the amount of Yuan Li compared to inscribing high-rank array patterns, he had four auxiliary star jades and one main star jade in his body.
When he inscribed the 39th layer, the Yuan Qi in his auxiliary star jade was completely depleted. The remaining one billion Earth-rank star patterns were not a problem for him.
As long as he had enough time and essence energy, he could completely inscribe it.
This was a boring process. Compared to the nervousness of the cultivators in the outside world, Ye Tianze's heart was as calm as still water.
One year … two years … three years …
Time passed quickly. Ye Tianze's speed of inscribing the Earth Rank Array Runes became faster and faster. The main star jade in his body continuously provided him with Origin Energy.
Finally, when he inscribed nine hundred million, Ye Tianze's face didn't even have a trace of sweat. His hands didn't even tremble.
Although this process took him a full twenty years, he had already learned to enjoy the solitude.
Finally, in the last three years, he inscribed the last one billion star patterns while recovering. When the Yuan Li gushed out like a flood, Ye Tianze immediately recovered his body.
First, he filled his five exhausted star jades with Yuan Li and transformed them into Yuan Li.
Then, he started to open new star jades. The reward of this wave of Yuan Li was ten times the previous reward. His face was expressionless.
After all, this was all within his expectations. Soon, the fifth auxiliary star jade was formed under the impact of the Yuan Li and surrounded the main star jade.
The sixth, the seventh, the eighth …
Under the impact of this huge wave of Yuan Li, Ye Tianze's auxiliary star jade was formed. It surrounded the main star jade and was divided into two realms, life and death. Each realm had five realms.
One had to know that the Great Cosmos of a Mysterious Heaven Realm cultivator only had nine star jades. However, Ye Tianze was still in the Mysterious Earth Realm and he already had ten star jades.
Including the main star jade, he had eleven star jades.
However, his realm didn't break through by much. He only entered Level Six of the Mysterious Earth Realm before stopping. However, Ye Tianze wasn't disappointed. He knew that although his realm didn't increase, his strength had increased exponentially.
When he opened his eyes and absorbed the last trace of Yuan Li, he immediately started to break through to the forty-first level.
He didn't have time to test his strength. He knew the principle of striking while the iron was hot. Now was the best time to inscribe the array runes.
Ye Tianze didn't know that when he broke through to the thirty-ninth level, he brought a shock to the outside world.
When the light of the thirty-ninth level lit up, Liu Mengchan's eyes turned gloomy and her face turned pale.
The Divine Rune Palace didn't abandon her. It was just that she wasn't strong enough. The Divine Rune Palace only maximized her value.
Even if there wasn't a bet, her status as Saintess would be abolished because this cultivator who broke through the thirty-ninth level was stronger than her.
When Huangfu Song saw the thirty-ninth level light up, he couldn't help but curse, "The Divine Rune Palace is cheating. You are deliberately breaking the bet. I won't accept it!"
However, no one paid attention to him. The cultivators of the Divine Rune Palace even sneered. Even the cultivators in the outside world shook their heads.
As the only son of the Chaos Master, Huangfu Song was too immature.
However, Huangfu Song wasn't prepared to put away his hostility under the strange gazes of the cultivators. Seeing that the cultivators of the Divine Rune Palace ignored him, he seemed to know that he couldn't change the situation.
When Ye Tianze broke through to the forty-first level and broke Liu Mengchan's record, his gaze suddenly fell on Liu Mengchan.
"No matter what, you are still the Saintess, right?"
Huangfu Song said, "The blessing ceremony will still be held. You will still be the Saintess. Even if it's only for a moment, you will still be the Saintess!"
The cultivators of the Divine Rune Palace understood Huangfu Song's meaning. They couldn't help but stare at him angrily. This was clearly telling them that even if they abolished her, she was still the Saintess of the Divine Rune Palace. The blessing ceremony would still be held.
However, the elders of the Divine Rune Palace weren't angry. Instead, they looked at Huangfu Song and felt that it was somewhat childish.
The Divine Rune Palace had almost perfectly escaped from this predicament. People didn't care about the bet at all. They didn't care about Liu Mengchan's temporary status as the Saintess.
People would only remember the Divine Rune Palace. This move easily resolved the Chaos Master's scheme.
Moreover, it made the Chaos Master's home look somewhat miserable.
At this moment, people looked at Liu Mengchan with a pitiful expression. Because she was an abandoned chess piece.
If not for this move, Huangfu Song might have treated Liu Mengchan well after taking her away. However, with this move, one could imagine Liu Mengchan's fate.
However, Liu Mengchan only lost her mind for a short moment. She recovered and her eyes regained their calmness.
This made the observing cultivators feel strange. It was easy to see that Liu Mengchan was pretending to be calm. She was obviously not pretending to be calm. She was really calm.
She quietly looked at the Rune Pagoda. What made her so calm was that the forty-first and forty-second levels lit up very quickly.
Moreover, it quickly lit up to the forty-ninth level and soon entered the fiftieth level.
The fiftieth level hadn't lit up yet, but people suddenly understood why Liu Mengchan was so calm.
If the cultivator in the pagoda was only a little bit stronger than her, she might not be convinced. However, the cultivator in the pagoda had already surpassed her by a large margin.
What was even more inconceivable was that he had already broken through the forty-ninth level. In other words, this cultivator was breaking through the fiftieth level.
Once he broke through the fiftieth level, it meant that he was very likely to become the number one person in the Divine Rune Palace!
The Saintess in the prophecy.
It was as if they had come here to have a midnight snack, but it had suddenly become a sumptuous dinner. The scene before them was completely different from what they had imagined.
