Inside the private room, starlight flowed gently across the table, which was already laden with various rare divine feasts. Plates of spiritual dishes made from the flesh and blood of ancient divine beasts continuously emitted a rich aroma. The fragrance of wine intertwined with the Limitless Evolving True Flow, making the entire private room seem like a warm little world.
Shen Qingchen was already eating with his mouth full of oil. "This is delicious!!" "Brother Qin, you have to try it!!" "This is the most famous 'Nine Luminaries Dragon Bone Brew' from the Heavenly Stele Divine Banquet Tower!!" Su Qingyuan couldn't help but chuckle beside him. "Eat slowly..." "No one's going to take it from you." Just then, a small blue figure suddenly jumped out from Qin Yu's shoulder. "Xiao Yue wants to eat too!!" Blue Ring Xiao Yue's eyes lit up.
She lunged at a piece of roasted meat on the table, bigger than herself, holding it in both hands. She sat on the edge of the table, her legs dangling in the air. Then she opened her mouth and took a huge bite. "Mmm!!!" "Delicious!!!" Her actions immediately amused all three of them. Shen Qingchen clutched his stomach and laughed heartily. "Hahahaha!!" "Xiao Yue, you're becoming more and more like a glutton!!" Xiao Yue immediately looked up, puffing out her cheeks in annoyance.
With grease still on her lips, she stammered, "Nonsense!!" "This young lady is replenishing her Fate Soul essence!!" Su Qingyuan looked at her and smiled, her eyes crinkling into crescents. The atmosphere in the private room was incredibly warm; at this moment, there was no life or death, no pursuit. After all, the two of them already knew that Xiao Yue was Qin Yu's person, so they didn't ask any more questions, and instead became even more intimate.
There was no Desert of Forgetting, only the ease and tranquility of a long-awaited reunion. Just as everyone was drinking, Qin Yu suddenly looked at Shen Qingchen. "Qingchen." "How is your sister now?" "Are your family members alright?" "I was thinking of visiting your home directly." "Last time I was at your house, I don't think I saw your parents." Shen Qingchen heard this.
He laughed even harder. "They're all doing well!!" "Now I'm a member of the Chi Lineage." "Hehe..." "We don't live in that old place anymore." "The Chi Lineage now assigns housing." "They gave us a mansion." "My sister brags every day that her brother is the Chi Lineage's genius." "My parents walk with their heads held high now."
At this point, Shen Qingchen couldn't help but grin, but a complex emotion flickered in his eyes as he smiled. "I've been busy cultivating lately." "The Four Great Lineage Grand Martial Competition is getting closer and closer." "It's been a long time since I've gone back to see them." "I'll go back after the tournament." Qin Yu nodded gently. Then he picked up his wine cup and took a small sip. "The Grand Tournament?" "By the way." "Brother Shen, could you tell me more about the Four Great Lineage Grand Competition?"
Just as Shen Qingchen was about to speak, Su Qingyuan gently put down her wine glass and looked tenderly at Qin Yu. "Brother Qin," she said softly, her voice low, but her eyes grew serious. "The Four Great Lineage Grand Competition is a grand event personally decided upon by the four Lineage the Supreme Transformation Primordial Domain over a hundred years. Its true purpose is to select whether the Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain has produced sufficiently outstanding geniuses and prodigies. Although the Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain belongs to the lower realms, it is an important subordinate region of the Lineage of the Supreme Transformation Primordial Domain."
"Every hundred years, a group of extremely powerful geniuses are born here." "And the Grand Competition" "determines who are qualified to enter the Supreme Transformation Primordial Domain." "At the same time..." "it also determines the ranking and resource allocation of the Lineage the Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain for the next hundred years." As she said this, her gaze slowly turned to the world tombstone in the distance, her eyes slightly complicated, "Currently, there are Five Great Heavenly Prodigies geniuses in the Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain." "And the first four" "are the true representatives of the Lineage today."
"First is the Ju Lineage — Ju Lingyuan. Second is our Chi Lineage — Chi Xiyue Sister Chi Xiyue. Third is the Hua Lineage — Hua Yanyang. Fourth is the Shangguan Lineage — Shangguan Shumu. These four are all the final winners of the last Four Great Lineage Grand Competition." "As for the fifth one..." Su Qingyuan's voice suddenly paused. "It is the Shangguan Lineage — Shangguan Hongyin." "However..." "Since the end of the last competition, no one has seen him again." "Even within the Shangguan Lineage, no one knows where he went."
"So now, the entire Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain basically accepts that the previous four were truly top-tier prodigies," Shen Qingchen couldn't help but nod. "Yes." "The overall ranking of the Lineage now" "actually changes according to the strength of those four." "The Ju Lineage has consistently suppressed the other three families over the years, largely because Senior Sister Ju Lingyuan is too strong."
"Some even say... she has already faintly touched the level of a true genius in the Supreme Transformation Primordial Domain." At this point, Shen Qingchen suddenly grinned mischievously at Qin Yu. "But now... I feel that you, Brother Qin, are even more outrageous than they are." Su Qingyuan nodded slightly. "Brother Qin." "If you participate in this competition, the entire Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain will probably be completely shaken."
Just as the three were chatting and laughing, a very ancient gray-white pattern on the top of the towering tombstone in the distance suddenly lit up for a moment. It was as if... something was slowly awakening.
Inside the private room, the aroma of wine wafted through the air, and a starlight curtain flowed gently. The gray-white glow emanating from the distant World Tombstone shone into the room through the boundary light curtain, enveloping the entire room in an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.
Qin Yu gently put down his wine glass, his gaze slightly thoughtful. "Hmm." "Chi Ninghua mentioned this to me before." "She also hopes I can represent the Chi Lineage in this competition." Shen Qingchen immediately became excited upon hearing this. "That's absolutely possible!!" He slammed his hand on the table, almost knocking over his wine glass. "Brother Qin!!" "You can definitely participate!!" "Because the Four Great Lineage Grand Competition allows external assistance. As long as you are a disciple of the Chi Lineage, or someone recommended by a core member of the Chi Lineage, you are qualified to participate, so Does Not Exist problem."
Beside her Su Qingyuan nodded repeatedly, her hands gently holding her wine glass, her eyes slightly bright. "Yes, Brother Qin, Qingchen is right, and if you can represent the Chi Lineage and win first place in this competition..." As she said this, her eyes became slightly serious. Not only could it make the Chi Lineage the number one Lineage in the Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain, but it could also completely suppress the Hua Lineage and the Shangguan Lineage. "Most importantly—" "The reward for first place is jointly set and recommended by the Lineage of the Supreme Transformation Primordial Domain." "It is said that... every reward is extremely amazing." Shen Qingchen's face was already slightly flushed from drinking.
He picked up a piece of beast meat and stuffed it into his mouth, mumbling indistinctly, "Yes, yes, yes!!" "Let me tell you, Brother Qin!!" "In the last grand competition," "After Senior Sister Ju Lingyuan won first place," "she directly obtained the Hongmeng Origin Treasure— the Primordial Time Umbrella —bestowed by the Lineage!!" "That's one of the most terrifying natal artifacts in the entire Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain!!" As he spoke, his eyes began to shine. "The reason why Senior Sister Ju Lingyuan firmly holds the position of the number one prodigy in the Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain," "is at least partly due to the Primordial Time Umbrella!! The other prodigies all fear that umbrella." "Moreover, she herself is a Lineage of the Nalan Lineage the Supreme Transformation Primordial Domain," "but she has basically been in the Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain for the past few years."
"Unless something truly terrible happens," she rarely returns to the Supreme Transformation Primordial Domain. "Hehe..." "I even suspect that the Nalan Lineage specifically sent her to oversee the Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain and maintain order." Su Qingyuan rolled her eyes at him. "You're just making wild guesses again." Shen Qingchen burst into laughter. Just then, Qin Yu's expression suddenly tightened slightly.
He slowly turned his head, his gaze returning to the towering tombstone in the distance. In that instant, the faint sense of being watched reappeared, even stronger than before. It was as if some ancient being... was silently observing him from the depths of the tombstone. The air suddenly became still for a moment, and Shen Qingchen and Su Qingyuan simultaneously noticed the change in Qin Yu's expression.
The two immediately stopped laughing. "What's wrong, Brother Qin?" "Brother Qin?" Qin Yu slowly put down his wine cup, his voice lowering slightly. "From the moment I entered the city," "I've felt a divine sense watching me." "Before, it was very vague," "But now..." He slowly raised his head, his gaze piercing through the light screen of the restaurant, staring directly at the world tombstone in the distance. "This feeling is getting stronger and stronger." "It feels..." "There's something alive deep within that tombstone."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qingchen and Su Qingyuan's eyes widened simultaneously. "Really?!" "Brother Qin, you really felt it?!" Qin Yu slowly nodded. "Yes." The moment he nodded, Shen Qingchen and Su Qingyuan both showed excited expressions. Shen Qingchen even stood up. "Hahahaha!!!" "Come on, come on!!" "Brother Qin!!" "Let's drink to that first!!!" He said, picking up the wine jar and filling all three of their cups. Su Qingyuan, standing beside him, also smiled broadly. "Come on." "Brother Qin." "Let's drink this first."
Qin Yu frowned slightly. "What's going on?" "Why are you all so happy?" "Drink first!!" "We'll talk after you finish!!" Shen Qingchen urged, laughing loudly. Although Qin Yu was puzzled, he still picked up his glass and drank it all in one gulp. Just after he put down his glass, Shen Qingchen lowered his voice slowly, his expression becoming extremely serious for the first time.
"Brother Qin, the strange thing you felt just now..." "Actually, it's not a bad thing." "Because that was—" "The Dao-Guarding Ultimate Beast Huang of my Chi Lineage, the Wanyan." "The Source Dao Ultimate Beast Huang, the Myriad Evolutions." Boom— The moment those words fell, even Qin Yu's pupils shrank slightly. "What?!" "The Source Dao Ultimate Beast Huang... the Wanyan?!"
Shen Qingchen chuckled, then poured himself another glass of wine. "Don't rush, don't rush." "Brother Qin, let me tell you slowly." At the same time, on the top of the world's tombstone in the distance, a gray-white inscription suddenly lit up slowly again, as if some being... was quietly listening to their conversation.
