Setting Out!
Three days later.
A massive vortex of energy suddenly appeared above the Sacred Spirit Pond.
"Let's go. The energy in the Sacred Spirit Pond Pool has been temporarily depleted by us. It will only be fully replenished when the next twenty years begin."
Mo Ling glanced at the almost transparent pool water at his feet and said.
"Okay, let's go."
The five exchanged a glance and then simultaneously plunged into the energy vortex in mid-air.
Only Lin Dong knew that the Sacred Spirit Pond would never be able to replenish its energy again in the next twenty years; instead, it would be completely ruined. But that didn't matter; he would definitely return to the Great Yan Dynasty before then, bringing the dynasty an even greater fortune.
Outside world.
"Very good, it seems that the four of you have all gained a lot from this trip."
After reinforcing the seal, Lin Fan and the others nodded in satisfaction as they looked at the four people whose auras were emanating from them. As for Lin Dong? He was clearly not among them.
"There are still ten days before the start of the Hundred Dynasties War. You can settle your personal matters, but I advise you to take advantage of this time to digest what you have gained from the Sacred Spirit Pond and reach the Creation Stage Peak."
"Only in this way can you have a chance in the Hundred Dynasties War. Otherwise, relying solely on Lin Dong's protection, you will never be able to enter Super Sect."
Mo Jingtian stepped forward from the crowd and solemnly instructed them.
"Yes, Your His Majesty!"
Mo Ling and his three companions, their morale high, immediately shouted loudly.
"Ten days? Hehe, I'm really looking forward to it~"
Lin Dong Youyou to himself.
Ten days later.
Deep within the imperial palace, atop a towering, thousand-foot- Giant Peak piercing the clouds, a massive stone array inscribed with countless runes drew everyone's attention. This was the Great Yan Dynasty's Teleportation Array connecting to the Ancient Battlefield.
"Creation Stage Peak, good, Ling'er, you have indeed not disappointed me."
Looking at the powerful aura of Mo Ling and his companions, Mo Jingtian nodded with delight. They had finally digested the results of their trip to the Sacred Spirit Pond.
He looked up at the blazing sun overhead, then said in a deep voice, "During the Hundred Dynasties War, all four of you must follow Lin Dong's orders in all your actions. This is an order, do you understand?"
"Yes, Your His Majesty!" Mo Ling and the other three replied, clasping their hands in greeting.
"Alright, it's getting late, let's enter the formation."
With a wave of Mo Jingtian's hand, Lin Dong and the other four filed into the stone formation.
"Let's begin."
Mo Jingtian and Lin Fan exchanged glances, then took out ten thousand Nirvana Pill and inserted them into the five grooves of the stone formation. The massive stone formation trembled violently, and countless mysterious runes lit up one after another, followed by an enormous pillar of light shooting into the sky.
"Buzz!"
As the beam of light fell, the five figures in the center of the stone formation vanished.
"Young friend Lin Dong, whether my Great Yan Dynasty can rise to prominence in the Hundred Dynasties War depends entirely on you."
Staring at the empty formation, Mo Jingtian, Lin Fan, and the other four were all lost in thought, feeling as if they had lost their way.
The Ancient Battlefield is a space inherited from ancient times.
It is said that tens of thousands of years ago, the entire Ancient Battlefield was a super space whose area was no larger than that of the Four Great Profound Regions. Thousands of sects took root and multiplied in it, and there were dozens of super forces comparable to the Eight Great Super Sects of the Eastern Xuan Region.
Later, for reasons unknown, a massive melee suddenly broke out among the many super forces in the Ancient Dimension. With experts at the Samsara Stage and even the Cycle Stage Expert in charge, they fought each other and even shattered the entire Ancient Dimension into countless fragments.
The Ancient Battlefield is formed by the Eight Great Super Sects of the Eastern Xuan Region seizing a large fragment of the Ancient Dimension, anchoring it permanently in the Eastern Xuan Region, and then joining forces to create the so-called Ancient Battlefield within it.
For this very reason, the Ancient Battlefield contains countless Ancient Sect ruins and treasures, which can be opened and excavated by later generations.
The so-called "Hundred Dynasties War" is, of course, just a figurative number. It refers to the thousands of dynasties under the rule of the Super Sect in the Eastern Xuan Region entering the Ancient Battlefield to participate in the seed or disciple selection competition of the Eight Great Super Sects organizations.
These myriad dynasties can be divided into four levels: Low-Level Dynasty, Mid-Level Dynasty, High-Level Dynasty, and Super Dynasty. Among them, Low-Level Dynasty are the weakest, and Super Dynasty are the strongest.
The Great Yan Dynasty is a typical Low-Level Dynasty, while the Azurewood Sect, which appeared in front of the Creation Martial Tablet in the Great Desolation Prefecture, belongs to the Great Qing Dynasty, which is Mid-Level Dynasty.
There is also a saying that there are ten Super Dynasty. Behind each of the Ten Great Super Dynasties are the shadows of Eight Great Super Sects, which directly support them and even have elders stationed there.
Basically, the champion of each Hundred Dynasties War comes from among the top ten.
The basic process of the Hundred Dynasties War is that the participants from various Dynasties move freely in the Ancient Dimension the year before, trying to become as strong as possible through various means.
There are about a dozen major cities in the Ancient Dimension, each guarded by members of the Super Sect.
A year later, the group traveled to various important cities to receive Nirvana Seal (which are said to have three levels: Heaven, Earth, and Man). They entered the core area and began the true Hundred Dynasties War, which involved plundering the golden light from other contestants' Nirvana Seal advance their own.
When the Nirvana Seal is purple-gold in color, one can be listed on the Nirvana Golden Ranking.
One month later, Hundred Dynasties Mountain opened.
Those who possess the Heaven Rank Nirvana Seal (Golden Seal) can Hundred Dynasties Mountain to witness the battle for the Nirvana Golden Ranking among those who hold the Nirvana Purple Gold Seal, thus producing the champion of the Hundred Dynasties War.
The disciples of the Super Sect are divided into four levels: registered disciple, entry disciple (formal, outer sect), Direct Disciple (inner sect), and Senior Direct Disciple (True Disciple).
In addition, there is the honorary title of "Chief Disciple".
Those who possess the Nirvana Golden Seal (Heaven Rank Nirvana Seal) can become Entry Disciple.
Those who hold the Nirvana Purple Gold Seal (those who ascend the Nirvana Golden Ranking) can be Direct Disciple.
If the champion of the Hundred Dynasties War can pass the assessment, he/she will have the opportunity to become Senior Direct Disciple, that is, True Disciple.
For example, the Dao Sect Desolate Hall, one of the Eight Great Super Sects, has tens of thousands of Registered Disciples, three thousand Entry Disciple, three hundred Direct Disciple, four Senior Direct Disciples, and the Chief Disciple is currently vacant.
Of course, after the Hundred Battles War officially ends, the Ancient Dimension will remain open for a period of time. The Eight Great Super Sects will continue to hunt down those who slipped through the net. Those who cannot attend the Hundred Dynasties Mountain but have performed relatively well can become the lowest-level Registered Disciple.
This is a desolate and ancient Ancient Dimension, where a light, gray mist hangs in the air year-round, suppressing the vision and movement of those with weaker cultivation levels.
"Buzz!"
The space rippled slightly, and five figures with considerable auras suddenly appeared in mid-air, clearly in a formation of four surrounding one person.
"The Nirvana Qi here is so rich that just a light sniff can cause the Origin Energy in my body to stir, as if I am about to make another breakthrough."
The slender figure at the head of the group took a deep breath as if intoxicated. With a gentle grasp of the air, his long, slender hand compressed and condensed a pale red energy ball within the black vortex in his palm.
A few seconds later, two perfectly round, crimson pills, like Flame, floated quietly, with an extremely dense energy fluctuation slowly emanating from them.
