Whoosh!

In the Desolate Region, a figure shot out.

The event was nearing its end, and disciples from various sects gathered in the open space in front of the Desolate Region.

High in the sky, Chu Xiangtian rode the Ancestral Dragon, standing majestically. Behind him, in the Cloudmist, were the figures of other princes and Princess, appearing and disappearing like phantoms. Even though they were just hazy figures and silhouettes, they gave people a sense of unparalleled Heavenly Prodigy and nobility that could only be looked up to.

Everyone was waiting for the time to run out; only one hour remained.

Zhang Xuanyu emerged from the Desolate Region, his robes riddled with tears, sleeves ripped, and bloodstains on his back and other areas, making him look quite disheveled.

After struggling for two days in the Twelfth Desolate Domain, he was nearing his limit.

However, this challenge was not without its benefits. He gained a great deal from sparring Sparring techniques with Primordial Immortal Arts and other Immortal Dao Laws there. After the challenge ends and he Seclusion again, his strength will improve slightly once more.

"It's almost over..."

The spirit of the True Treasure Jade Pendant in Zhang Xuanyu's arms was keeping track of the time for him; there was less than an hour left before the end.

Looking at the sea of people outside and hearing that familiar, noisy sound, he felt an indescribable sense of relief as he returned from the brink of death.

He breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at the Immortal Stele.

My gaze was immediately fixed on the tenth position.

99...6?

Zhang Xuanyu froze, the slight relief on her face instantly Solidification, her eyes widening in disbelief.

He used Secret Art to sever a piece of Immortal Bone buried within his body, gaining an extra day. Combined with the Immortal Dao Laws he cultivated through his Sect and those he fortuitous opportunity, all of it was burned away, yet he still hadn't climbed back to tenth place?

Could it be that the Top Ten are already the territory of the Thirteenth Desolate Domain?!

He stared blankly at the rankings, somewhat lost in thought, feeling a sense of defeat and dejection, and a bit bewildered.

He asked himself, in the Twelfth Desolate Domain, to have reached this level was already close to the limit.

Unless the other party is at the Third Level of Immortal Lord Realm.

Aside from Tian Hongyi, Xing Lan, Boya Xuejian... Zhang Xuanyu's gaze slowly swept over the other Tianzong. Reaching the Immortal Lord Realm within Three Thousand Years of Soul Lifespan was already an unparalleled Prodigy, one in a billion, let alone reaching the Third Level of Immortal Lord Realm, which was extremely rare. Yet, there were actually ten of them in Yan-Chu?

Only one in a Nine Thousand Immortal Cities Immortal City can be born...

The light in Zhang Xuanyu's eyes dimmed, turning into bitterness, and she lowered her head.

At that moment, several figures flew in.

"Senior Brother!"

"Suspended rain!"

"Junior brother!"

All the members of the sect rushed over. Ever since Zhang Xuanyu ventured into the Desolate Region again, the news had spread Sect, and everyone else was paying attention to the matter, as it concerned the honor and disgrace of the entire Sect.

At this moment, several elders among them looked up at the Immortal Stele, only to see that Zhang Xuanyu's ranking had not changed.

Two days Past, and they still haven't caught up with their previous position, which shows that being ranked tenth is quite unexpected!

"Xuanyu, don't overthink it, you've already done your best!"

Beside her, Master, Xinyu her stunning beauty and gentle demeanor, exuding a hazy, Immortal Power, spoke softly, though a hint of reluctance and regret lingered in her eyes.

Since things have come to this point, there's no use in being angry or resentful; we can only accept it.

"I want to see just who this tenth-ranked person is. I know about the other Prodigy from the Heaven Two Sect, but their rankings don't seem to be among them."

"Unless they have someone else hiding who wants to challenge the Heaven One Sect's position? Hmph!"

"It'll be over in an hour. His Majesty will come then, and everything will be revealed. Let me see who it is!"

The other elders all had cold eyes; it was only a difference of one person, but the results were completely different.

If Zhang Xuanyu could also make it into the Top Ten, then the sect would have two Prodigy in the Top Ten, which would definitely make them famous throughout the entire Yan Chu's Nine Thousand Immortal Cities!

Even the highest-ranking Imperial Clan would have to lower their heads and glance at them.

"Let's go back first and talk about it then."

Cui Yuesheng said, then turned and led his disciples back.

On the giant sword, Lin Qingying, dressed in a blue robe, stood at the edge. Seeing the crowd of disciples gathered there, she knew that Senior Brother Zhang was also an extremely formidable figure. But now that he had come out, and the ranking on the Immortal Stele had not changed, a faint smile appeared on her lips, and the tension in her heart slowly eased.

Then, her gaze turned to the Great Dream Nine Abyss, where she saw the crowd gathered, seemingly amidst some slight noise and cheers, and a smile appeared in her clear eyes.

That boy always brought her surprises, like a bright and dazzling pearl.

"It's a pity about Xuan Yu. If his Water Dao Origin were even half as good as Boya Xuejian's, he could easily have entered the tenth rank."

At this moment, a steady voice descended, and Tian Hongyi, dressed in snow-white clothes, appeared behind Lin Qingying at some point, speaking calmly.

Lin Qingying withdrew her gaze, her eyes involuntarily turning towards the direction of another place, Bamboo Rain Pavilion.

These days Imperial Clan, what I hear most often is my Master and many fellow Grandmaster talking about this name: Chaos being with unparalleled talent, who even suppressed Heavenly Talent.

She shook her head slightly, neither replying nor asking any questions.

Seeing that the woman seemed uninterested in his words, Tian Hongyi frowned slightly and said:

"Seven years from now, with your rate of progress, you'll have a chance to make a name for yourself in the Southern Region Assembly Battle. Sooner or later, you'll come into contact with Boya Xuejian and squeeze into our circle. Aren't you even a little bit curious?"

Lin Qingying looked into the distance and said calmly:

Why be curious?

Tian Hongyi was slightly taken aback, and said, "As cultivators, all living beings seek nothing more than to reach the summit, and now we are standing on the Mountain Summit."

"The Mountain Summit..."

Lin Qingying's eyes flickered slightly as she glanced at a certain spot, where the increasingly boisterous cheers and jubilation grew. A slight smile appeared on her lips.

Some people climb mountains with all their might, while others leap from the Mountain Summit. The scenery you want me to see, someone will let me see.

"Who?"

Tian Hongyi's eyes turned cold, and he immediately asked.

Sensing the sudden freeze in the air around her, Lin Qingying's smile and Wenrou vanished instantly. She frowned slightly, turned to gaze at the most radiant young man in the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion beside her, and said:

"I was just saying it casually. The Mountain Summit you mentioned, once you actually see it, you might not think it's such a big deal. We, the masses... can live our lives without reaching the summit!"

"Your attitude towards spiritual practice is far too passive!"

Tian Hongyi couldn't help but say.

Lin Qingying turned and left, returning to her cultivation place without speaking to the other person again.

"Hmph, you make it sound so easy, but you work harder than anyone else in your cultivation!"

Tian Hongyi watched Lin Qingying leave, his face somewhat gloomy.

He had taken notice of the other person. Although he had only been in the sect for a very short time, he was extremely diligent and hardworking in his cultivation. He had assumed that the other person was like him, eager to reach the top and survey the All Under Heaven. In that case, it was possible that the other person could become his dao companion and accompany him on this journey.

But to his surprise, the other party distanced themselves from him, which made him somewhat annoyed.

"That Zhang Xuanyu failed!"

He's still in Eleventh!

"It's over, it's too late now, Haotian is really going to be tenth!"

At the Great Dream Nine Abyss, shrouded in Barrier Dao Domain, all the disciples were extremely excited, especially the disciples of Sword Abyss, including Gu Yan and Yue Xi, who had mixed feelings of joy and excitement.

"You little rascal, you're really something! Zhang Xuanyu stayed inside for two days and still couldn't surpass you!"

Li Tiemu was so excited that he kept pounding his fists on Li Hao's shoulder, wishing he could hug Li Hao and kiss him a few times.

Seeing how agitated the old man was, Li Hao quickly pushed him away to avoid his spittle splashing onto his face.

"If I stay for three days and he stays for two, that definitely won't work, unless he breaks through the Mist Wall."

Li Hao said.

"You're staying for three days?"

Li Tiemu's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but ask, "You spent the last three days in the Twelfth Desolate Domain?"

"What else?"

"I thought you... Oh, you brat, you didn't even explain clearly! You've kept us on edge these past two days, and you were probably laughing to death the whole time!"

Li Tiemu was both angry and furious, but also secretly delighted. His emotions were being torn between ecstasy and ecstasy by this kid.

"You didn't ask. Besides, where else can I stay if not in the Twelfth Desolate Domain?"

Li Hao also looked completely innocent.

Li Tiemu rolled his eyes. He glanced at the rest of the Immortal Stele. Except for the place around the nine hundredth place where the rankings occasionally changed, the rest of the place was basically silent.

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

Almost everyone waited outside the Immortal Stele, watching the excitement as the event neared its end.

"It should be a foregone conclusion. None of the people ranked after you have made it in, and there's been no movement from the Imperial Clan either, unless someone suddenly breaks through from the back to tenth place like you."

Li Tiemu said, his voice filled with barely concealed excitement.

Zhou Qingyun and the old woman both looked at Li Hao with amazement. Who would have thought that the disciple that Old Man Li brought back to the Sect three or four years ago could achieve such a ranking in the entire Yan Chu Immortal Dynasty!

Top Ten! These are the Top Ten out of the Nine Thousand Immortal Cities!

An Immortal City is no ordinary mortal city; its area is comparable to that of hundreds of the Dynasty, its territory vast, and its inhabitants numbering in the hundreds of millions.

Among them are countless geniuses and Prodigy, but to stand out in the Nine Thousand Immortal Cities is enough to show that they have cultivated to the extreme in each realm.

"To have such strength at the True Immortal Realm? Old Man Li, what level of Immortal Seal does your disciple possess?"

Zhou Qingyun couldn't help but ask.

To be able to suppress Zhang Xuanyu, who was at the True Immortal Realm Ninth Layer, and to advance to the tenth level, is truly remarkable.

"The Immortal Seal?"

Li Tiemu was taken aback and couldn't help but turn to look at Li Hao. Only then did he realize that he had never seen Li Hao's Immortal Seal before.

"You little brat, you wouldn't happen to be the Six Flowers Immortal Seal, would you?"

Li Tiemu couldn't help but ask.

Beside him, Gu Yan's eyes flickered slightly, a glint of light appearing in them as he gazed intently at Li Hao.

Yue Xi and Murong Qingwu both stared at Li Hao in surprise. The Six Flowers Immortal Seal?

Li Hao did not answer, but simply smiled without saying a word.

"You're so secretive, you little rascal!"

Seeing Li Hao's expression, Li Tiemu rolled his eyes in annoyance, but he didn't really blame him. After all, it wasn't time for the Southern Region Assembly Battle yet, and it would be better to hide more of his trump cards.

" With the Six Flowers Immortal Seal, even if one were to go to the Heavenly Palace to become a disciple of the Supreme, wouldn't that grant them the status of a formal disciple?"

The old woman couldn't help but Whispers, looking at Li Hao with the eyes of someone who treasured him.

Her disciple, Lin Mingrong, was somewhat dazed. She was the Three Flowers Immortal Seal, a phoenix among men, and an unparalleled Heavenly Prodigy. Her Master had once said that she could become a disciple of that Immortal Emperor Supreme.

Time flows silently.

Cheers erupted from time to time from various other Immortal Sect.

Someone managed to break into the top 1,000 at the last minute and secured the admission ticket, prompting the entire clan to cheer and dance for them.

Soon, an hour Past.

A dragon's roar echoed through the sky, followed by a deafening gong-like tremor that drowned out all other discussions, silencing them instantly.

"The test is over!"

Chu Xiangtian spoke calmly, but his cold voice resonated throughout the entire hall.

His cultivation level had reached the Perfection of Immortal Lord Realm, and apart from the overlords of the Immortal King Realm, almost no one present could contend with him.

Even the Tianzong elders like Li Tiemu, at the same cultivation level, were no match for this Imperial Clan Heavenly Prodigy.

"Please, Marshal, assist us in summoning all the disciples from the Desolate Region!"

Chu Xiangtian suddenly turned around, cupped his hands and bowed towards the Desolate Region, his attitude extremely humble.

"Marshal."

Which Marshal?

"Nonsense! The only Marshal in the entire Yan-Chu region who can command such respect from Chu Xiangtian is that Grand Marshal Who Pacifies the Nation!"

Desolate Region, disciples and elders from various sects were astonished and couldn't help but gaze into the depths of the Desolate Region, but they saw nothing.

Li Hao was somewhat surprised, not expecting that General Shangguan was still in this Desolate Region.

So, doesn't that mean my previous behavior was all seen by him and that Old Man Yuan?

As Li Hao pondered, a profound surge of Immortal Power suddenly emanated from the depths of the Desolate Region, sweeping across the Desolate Region like ocean waves, reaching from the depths of more than thirty levels all the way to the outer edge.

The few disciples who were still struggling in the Desolate Region were all pushed out.

"Thank you, Marshal."

A glint appeared in Chu Xiangtian's eyes, and he cupped his hands again, speaking gently.

Behind him, a dozen or so figures, Cloudmist, all changed their expressions and hurriedly bowed towards the depths of the Desolate Region, paying their respects in unison to the Marshal of the Nation.

At the same time, they glared angrily at Chu Xiangtian, who knew the Marshal was here but hadn't told them sooner.

Despite being princes, only one can inherit the throne; the others are merely his offspring to that emperor.

While offspring can be born simply by taking a concubine, there has only been one Grand Marshal Who Pacifies the Nation in the past 70,000 years!

They were both perfectly clear about the relative importance of their respective positions.

Those who weren't clear-headed didn't even have the chance to come to this Ancient Immortal Realm; they were long gone.

"Please Immortal Platform!"

Chu Xiangtian then turned around and said loudly.

As his words echoed throughout the entire area, the Cloudmist suddenly surged in the sky above the outer edge of this crimson Desolate Region. Then, a dark, abyss-like platform slowly descended from the depths of the Cloudmist.

The high platform appeared to be cast from molten iron, with bronze pillars standing on it, exuding an ancient Savage Wilderness Aura.

The crowd below all looked up in awe, their eyes filled with shock. They felt that this Immortal Platform was an extremely powerful top-tier Domain Artifact, even possessing a hint of Emperor's Might!

As the Cloudmist parted, as if the Heaven and Earth had just begun to Chaos up, the celestial Immortal Platform slowly descended amidst the billowing Cloudmist and hovered in front of the Immortal Stele.

"Now, please welcome the top one thousand talents from the Heavenly Prodigy Immortal Stele Top Thousand to the stage!"

Chu Xiangtian rode eight Ancestral Dragons and flew high into the sky above the Immortal Platform, where he spoke loudly to the Heaven and Earth.

Its sound was thunderous, resounding for thousands of miles.
