A figure in white appeared soundlessly in the air.
There had been no movement at all, and no one had been alerted.
Su Jingnian was the first to notice. She raised her gaze, clearly saw who it was, then bent at the waist and respectfully saluted him.
"Greetings, Holy Lord."
Xiao Tianyi and Ye Yuandao noticed him soon after and echoed, "Greetings, Holy Lord."
Only then did Su Yuan, Chen Shenxiao, and the others react, all turning their eyes toward the figure in the air.
"Greetings, Holy Lord!"
Everyone bent over together in salute, their voices ringing like great bells.
"Rise."
Chen Xianzhou slowly descended to the ground. Standing before Xiao Tianyi and the others, he smiled gently.
Everyone rose, looking fervently at the being the world called an Immortal Saint.
Su Yuan stared intently at Chen Xianzhou. This legendary Immortal Saint had a gentle bearing and handsome, elegant features.
Judging by his appearance alone, no one would have guessed that he was the strongest person in the Ninth Star Domain.
His voice seemed to soothe the soul. When Su Yuan heard the words "rise," he felt as though his spirit had been cleansed somewhat.
Chen Shenxiao looked at Chen Xianzhou, his expression the calmest among everyone present.
"The hour has arrived. The first round of trials in the Sacred Heart Immortal Realm is about to begin."
Once Chen Xianzhou finished speaking, the scene around everyone changed in an instant, and they arrived in a place resembling a paradise.
Many people were entering the Immortal Saint's Minor World for the first time, and they could not help but stand stunned at their surroundings.
Countless golden halos flickered faintly in the heavens, spilling soft light across the earth.
In the distance, hazy scenes gave off low, melodious, ethereal sounds.
