The ancient battlefield's sky had long been torn apart. Yi Yun felt like he had been drifting through the Chaos for a very long period of time. Following that, he tore through the massive spatial rift.
Behind Yi Yun, the other White Lunar Divine Empire warriors appeared one after another. Nanxuan Luoyue was standing very close to Yi Yun. They had been teleported together, so they naturally came out together.
"This is the ancient battlefield …"
Yi Yun looked over and saw that he had appeared above a vast landmass. The landmass was a boundless desert. Vegetation was sparse and it looked desolate.
And in the middle of the desolate landmass was a tall monolith tower. It towered into the sky like a column that held up the heavens.
The monolith tower was squarish and gray in color. It looked like it had stood there for an infinite amount of time. Just the instant Yi Yun saw the monolith tower, he felt as though his soul had been shaken. Could this be … the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith?
Yi Yun looked far into the distance and saw that beneath the monolith tower was a ring-shaped city. It surrounded the monolith tower in the middle.
The buildings in the city looked very crude. They were made of large gray rocks that were unpolished. They exuded an ancient and desolate aura.
Yi Yun could clearly see that although most of the buildings were empty, there were a few people living in them. Some of the buildings even had artifacts like cauldrons or refinement furnaces. It was as though people lived there for a long period of time.
"Are there people living here?" asked Yi Yun in surprise.
Nanxuan Luoyue nodded. "Yes. Typically, warriors enter the ancient battlefield with teleportation tokens. These jade tokens are, after all, made by humans."
"Oh? These jade tokens are actually made by humans? I thought they were automatically produced by the worldly laws. "
Yi Yun was slightly taken aback. There were 7,200 people from the White Lunar Divine Empire that entered the ancient battlefield, meaning that there were 7,200 teleportation jade tokens. For factions like the Nanxuan family clan and the Martial Numinous clan, their quotas for entering the ancient battlefield were determined by the White Lunar Divine Empire. In fact, they were given a few jade tokens. The value of these tokens was obvious!
And now, Yi Yun had learned that these jade tokens were made by humans. In that case, wouldn't the people who had the ability to make jade tokens be gods that the various major factions would fight to rope in? If someone specialized in making jade tokens to sell, it would be extremely easy to earn riches.
"Who can make such a jade token?" asked Yi Yun.
"It's the people who left their names on the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith. In fact, the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith is not limited to the one you see. There are other smaller World Monolith scattered across the ancient battlefield. As long as one leaves their name on a World Monolith, they will obtain the recognition of the world's laws. They can communicate with the ancient battlefield and the outside world, allowing them to create teleportation jade tokens."
"These people also have a special privilege. They can stay in the world of the Primordial Battlefield."
"I see." Yi Yun's eyes lit up. Ignoring the other benefits of leaving his name on the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith, just the benefit alone was enough to tempt him. If he could produce jade tokens and sell them at a set price, there would definitely be many major factions vying for them. When the time came, the rare materials he needed could probably be found by these major factions even if they had to dig three feet deep.
"It's no wonder there's a city here. In that case, the warriors who live in the city are ruthless people who can leave their names on the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith?"
"Yes." Nanxuan Luoyue nodded. "However, it is difficult for these people to stay in the ancient battlefield forever. The younger one is, the easier it is to leave their name on the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith. And as one grows older, the requirements for leaving one's name increases. As a result, many people have their names wiped off the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith."
As Nanxuan Luoyue spoke, the people from the White Lunar Divine Empire began descending. Their landing point was the ancient battlefield's central city.
The moment they landed in the city, many young disciples could not help but let out gasps. The city's aura was just too immense. It was as though an Ancient Fey God was slumbering beneath the city. Just standing on the city's surface made them feel a powerful lifeblood force rise up. It was so strong that they found it difficult to stand properly.
When they looked up at the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith, it towered into the clouds. It was impossible to see its peak.
As for using their psyche to probe the parts of the World Monolith that were obscured by the clouds, that was a joke. Their psyche did not even reach a few feet before they felt the immense pressure from the World Monolith. The pressure left their soul seas in excruciating pain. There was no way they could withstand it.
And on the World Monolith, they could clearly see names engraved on it!
It was the same Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith, but the engravings were very different!
Some of the words were a few meters wide and as large as millstones. Some were a few inches wide and as small as a fist.
Some of the words were engraved high above, nearing the clouds. There were some words that were pressed beneath the World Monolith, almost within reach.
But in general, there were very few names engraved on the World Monolith. Most of them were blank.
One had to know that the World Monolith was squarish in shape. It was thousands of feet long and wide. Furthermore, its peak could not be seen. Even the words the size of millstones were engraved on it. They appeared inconspicuous.
"These words are of different sizes, heights, and depths. Even the engravings have different depths. Does this imply the difference in strength between the people who engraved their names?" asked Yi Yun.
"That's right." Nanxuan Luoyue nodded.
Yi Yun added, "There's something strange. According to my understanding, the larger the word, the harder it is to engrave it. But on the Ancient Ruins world's World Monolith, big words occupy the majority. There are fewer small words?"
Nanxuan Luoyue said, "You are right. The bigger and taller the words, the harder it is to leave them behind! But once they are left behind, they can be left behind for a long time. Look at those fist-sized words. They can only be left behind for a few centuries at best. But those millstone-sized words engraved high above can be left behind for hundreds of thousands of years or even millions of years. That is truly a name that will be immortalized for all eternity! Therefore, the smaller names are fewer in number because they have been wiped away by time. "
Nanxuan Luoyue looked up at the lofty names. She, who had always been indifferent, could not help but feel a surge of emotions. It would be great if her name could be left behind on it …
"Oh? It's gone in a few centuries? No wonder … "Yi Yun could not help but shake his head when he heard Nanxuan Luoyue's words." That's right. That's too short. If one's name is left behind for a few centuries or a thousand years, it would be meaningless. "
The ancient battlefield only opened once every sixty years. It would only open eight or nine times in a few centuries. Even if one were to keep selling teleportation tokens, it would not be worth much …
