Emperor Wu Shihuang's handwriting, do not go out of the Milky Way border
Chapter 955 Selling Favors
Ordinary cultivators, given enough years of cultivation and sufficient understanding of the Great Dao, can naturally attain sainthood. Even in the Origin Realm, many beings are born saints, or even higher realms.
In the entire Origin Realm, within the Heavenly Emperor Domain alone, there are over a billion beings with cultivation levels above Saint!
Indeed, this number is no exaggeration. Within the Emperor's Domain, there are truly countless Sages, as numerous as the stars in the sky.
However, only a little over six million people registered for the competition this time.
Those who have the courage to sign up for the competition are all those who have basically reached the perfection of the three realms of sainthood, are ready to step into a new realm at any time, and believe that they have some ability.
Most of the ordinary Saints at the Third Realm did not register for the competition. They knew that their cultivation was insufficient, so registering would be futile, and it was better not to go on stage and lose face.
After Ying Zheng nodded, he waved his hand in the void, and the void collapsed, instantly transforming into three great worlds.
"Where are the saints?!" Ying Zheng shouted sternly.
As soon as the words were spoken, all the saints who had registered in the void were involuntarily drawn by an invisible great supernatural power, automatically becoming streaks of light and disappearing into the three great worlds respectively.
Ordinary saints were cast into the first great world, saints of the Heavenly Dao were cast into the second great world, and saints of the Great Dao were cast into the third great world.
These three great worlds were all created casually by Ying Zheng, and many trials were set up within them!
"The three realms of sainthood—Primordial Saint, Primordial Heavenly Dao Saint, and Primordial Great Dao Saint—have all entered these three great worlds, where countless tribulations await as tests! Among the three great worlds, only the last ten will be considered to have passed!" Ying Zheng said.
As his words fell, countless cultivators in the dojo looked toward the three great worlds.
Regardless of their cultivation level, at this moment, they could all see everything in the three great worlds.
Of the three great worlds, the one in which the Primordial Saint resides has the largest population.
Millions of saints poured in, and a great battle ensued.
Countless saints clashed, unleashing their magical treasures in a relentless barrage! Streaks of light ripped through the sky, colliding violently!
In an instant, countless saints were killed on the spot and forced to leave the Great World.
They were still somewhat bewildered after they withdrew. Only when they realized they had been eliminated did they feel helpless, regretful, and fearful.
The fierce battle of a million saints was truly terrifying for them.
Not only the Primordial Saints, but also the Heavenly Dao Saints and the Great Dao Saints. As soon as they entered the Great World of the Competition, a chaotic battle broke out, turning the world upside down right from the start.
These scenes terrified countless onlookers.
"so horrible!"
"My God, it's a chaotic battle right from the start, a million saints fighting each other. No matter how skilled you are, it's hard to survive!"
"This...who can withstand this!"
"At this time, luck is extremely important!"
"It's not just important, it's absolutely crucial!"
Countless cultivators were amazed.
After the first wave of chaotic battles, over 90% of the participants from the three major worlds were eliminated. Those who survived were almost all injured and in a sorry state.
However, the real test has only just begun.
In the first great world, calamity struck first.
From nowhere, a sea of lightning poured down, unleashing boundless thunder! The entire world instantly transformed into a pool of lightning!
Boom! Crack!
Terrifying lightning flashed, and amidst the dazzling lightning, one Primordial Saint after another screamed as they were reduced to ashes! The power of this lightning tribulation was so great that even Saints could hardly withstand it.
The Primordial Saint who died under the lightning tribulation was also thrown out.
Lightning swept across the entire Great World like a flood, and in just an instant, almost all the Primordial Saints in the Great World perished!
After the tribulation lightning dissipated, the original millions of Primordial Saints had dwindled to less than ten thousand!
After the tribulation, they were given no chance to catch their breath. Heavenly fire descended, turning the entire world into a furnace!
The heavens and earth burned like furnaces, terrifying flames rose, and fire dragons materialized, frantically slaughtering the surviving saints in the great world.
"Ugh!!" A Primordial Saint screamed in agony as he was entangled by the fire dragon and burned to ashes.
"You beast, come on, I'm not afraid of you!!" another saint roared, wielding a bronze hammer, and engaged in fierce battle with a fire dragon.
Unfortunately, the flames burned him, and he ultimately perished in the inferno.
There are also some exceptionally powerful and ruthless individuals who remain unmoved in the face of lightning tribulations and are unharmed even when engulfed in flames. Just like Yang Jian, the third-generation disciple of Yuan Shi Tianzun!
Yang Jian stood proudly amidst the boundless sea of fire, the raging flames burning fiercely, yet unable to cause him the slightest harm. All around him, roaring fire dragons attacked from all directions. However, he simply stretched out his hand and firmly grasped each fire dragon in his grasp!
The fire dragons let out mournful cries, which he forcefully extinguished. But the next moment, even more fire dragons surged towards him like a tide. He opened his maw and swallowed them all in one gulp!
After heeding Ying Zheng's advice, Yang Jian ultimately chose the path of cultivation that proved his Dao through force, and he practiced the Pan Shen Supreme Technique.
Although the Supreme Pan God is no match for the Cosmic Furnace, it is still a peerless divine power that can be cultivated to the level of the Primordial Supreme.
Because he chose the path of proving his Dao through force, Yang Jian's cultivation progress has been extremely slow over the years. Originally one of the best among the third-generation disciples of the Chan Sect, his realm has gradually been surpassed by others.
Currently, among the third-generation disciples of the Chan and Jie sects, many have cultivated to the realm of Great Dao Saints. Among them, the most outstanding, like Ling Zhuzi, has even attained the Dao of Primordial Supreme! But Yang Jian, to this day, remains trapped in the Saint realm, unable to break through.
However, at this moment, Yang Jian's powerful combat strength made countless cultivators take notice!
"Who is this person? Unmoved by lightning, impervious to fire, he moves with the ease of strolling through this furnace of heaven and earth. With his combat strength, he is probably comparable to a fourth or fifth-level Great Dao Saint!"
"I don't know, but I reckon his background is definitely not simple!"
"I know this person! His name is Yang Jian, he comes from the Heavenly Emperor Domain, and he has a deep connection with the Great Emperor! I heard that he follows the path of proving the Dao through strength, and he even received personal instruction from the Great Emperor!"
"Hiss! To actually receive instruction from the Great Emperor himself, this person's luck is truly extraordinary!"
"Yes, with the Great Emperor imparting his teachings, it's no wonder that he, despite only being at the level of a Primordial Saint, possesses such formidable combat power."
"Legend has it that the Great Emperor cultivated to the peak of the Primordial Supreme by proving the Dao through force, and then attained the Dao Fruit of the Primordial Great Emperor. This person also follows the path of proving the Dao through force, and will surely have a bright future."
"Proving the Dao through force is indeed incredibly powerful, but compared to other paths of cultivation, this path is far more difficult to traverse." In the void, countless cultivators who came to witness the ceremony exchanged their thoughts on Yang Jian through divine communication.
In fact, there are quite a few outstanding Primordial Saints like Yang Jian.
After the trial of the Heaven and Earth Furnace, fewer than a thousand Primordial Saints remained in this great world. Moreover, the vast majority of them appeared utterly exhausted, clearly having reached their limit. Only about a hundred, like Yang Jian, remained composed.
They were clearly formidable figures among the Primordial Saints. Although trapped at the Primordial Saint realm, their actual combat strength far surpassed that of a Primordial Saint, enough to challenge Heavenly Dao Saints, or even Great Dao Saints!
After the trial of the Heaven and Earth's furnace ended, the surviving saints quickly sat cross-legged in meditation, hoping to recover some of their true energy. Unfortunately, the third trial was about to begin!
The third trial is the tribulation of wind.
Countless hurricanes raged from all directions of this vast world.
These hurricanes were incredibly fierce, like countless sharp knives slicing through everything in their path, turning everything into dust!
The sages hastily cast spells in an attempt to protect themselves. Unfortunately, after the hurricane passed, many were instantly pulverized by the wind blades. Some, though barely able to withstand the fierce wind blades, were caught in a hidden, eerie wind within the hurricane. This wind seeped into their bodies, instantly turning them into a pile of mud, disintegrating and vanishing!
"This hurricane is truly terrifying! On the surface, there are blades formed by the hurricane, and in the shadows, there are bone-corroding winds. One is forceful, the other is gentle. Let alone a Primordial Saint, even an ordinary Great Dao Saint would find it difficult to withstand!"
"Yes, this is a tribulation that even a Primordial Saint cannot withstand!"
"Luckily I didn't sign up, otherwise I probably would have been eliminated long ago."
Many viewers were terrified and expressed their feelings.
The hurricane calamity was indeed formidable, especially the yin wind hidden within it. It was invisible and intangible, yet it could penetrate anywhere. Once it entered the body, even the most powerful expert would die instantly, leaving no trace. Even Yang Jian dared not be careless in the slightest.
He had no choice but to sit cross-legged, form hand seals, and enter a state of perfect purity to defend against the erosion of the yin wind.
"What a pity, I can't use magic weapons, otherwise..."
A saint sighed, glanced around, and then turned to ashes.
It turns out that in this great world, ever since the tribulation began, Ying Zheng had imposed a rule suppression, rendering the magical treasures of the saints unusable.
While Yang Jian and others were undergoing the tribulation of wind, the other two great worlds were also experiencing their own trials.
The second great world is the arena where the Heavenly Saints compete. The trials here are basically the same as in the first great world: lightning tribulation, fire tribulation, and then wind tribulation.
The third great world, which serves as the arena for the Great Dao Saints to compete, presents calamities that are entirely different from the first two great worlds.
Although the Great Dao Saint is also a saint, his cultivation and combat power are incomparable to the former two!
There are twelve stages to becoming a Great Sage, and each stage represents a revolutionary change!
Those who can cultivate step by step from the first level of the Great Dao Saint to the twelfth level are basically geniuses. They are only one step away from becoming a Primordial Supreme.
However, at this stage, there are many people who lack the necessary opportunities and qualifications, and even after cultivating for billions of years, they will still be stuck here.
In fact, some Great Dao Saints have lived longer than Qin Shi Huang, and many of them became saints when the Ancient Origin Realm was destroyed. After more than 100 billion years of cultivation, they are still trapped in the Great Dao Saint realm.
The Hundred-Loot Daoist is one example. Of course, he has now attained enlightenment and become a Venerable One.
However, without Ying Zheng's help, it's not impossible that the Hundred-Elm Daoist could have wasted another hundred billion years.
This Grand Primordial Ceremony attracted many veteran Great Dao Saints. Among them were many old monsters who had been trapped in the Great Dao Saint realm for countless years, never having the opportunity to break through.
As the Great Emperor, Ying Zheng's convening of the Primordial Chaos Ceremony was naturally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for these people. Therefore, quite a few old monsters came to participate.
The trials in the two great worlds have now reached the Wind Tribulation stage, and these Great Dao Saints are only now facing their first trial.
In this vast world, some faint sounds suddenly came from somewhere.
These sounds were as faint as mosquitoes and flies, buzzing and indistinct. Yet they seemed to possess a strange magic, drawing people in irresistibly to hear them clearly.
But as they listened intently, the faintest sound instantly transformed into a booming bell!
A booming and majestic sound resounded, shaking their very souls!
Caught off guard, some people's spirits were shattered, and they were eliminated on the spot.
"This...this is the Great Dao's Brahma Sound!" Many Great Dao Saints couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"The Great Dao's sacred sound! Could it be the Great Emperor preaching? Hahaha, this is an incredible opportunity..." Someone laughed excitedly, but the next moment, he suddenly exploded, leaving not even a trace of ashes behind.
"How utterly foolish! This Great Dao Sanskrit chant originates from the Great Emperor and is a test set by him. Let alone a Great Dao Saint, even an ordinary Primordial Supreme would likely suffer severe damage to their Dao Heart and Primordial Spirit if they heard it!" someone couldn't help but say.
"To pass this test, one must shut down the five senses and abandon all distracting thoughts to avoid being disturbed by the sacred sounds of the Great Dao. Otherwise, once the sacred sounds enter one's ears, death is certain!" someone else said.
In fact, many Great Dao Saints have already reacted quickly, realizing that this Great Dao chant is harmful to them.
The Great Dao Saints who signed up for this event were mostly at or above the tenth level of Great Dao Saint.
After the first wave of chaotic battle, the remaining Great Dao Saints were basically all Great Dao Saints at the Perfection stage, that is, Great Dao Saints at the twelfth level.
Their cultivation time, knowledge, and vision are actually no less than those of many Primordial Supremes. Some are even only one step away from the Primordial Supreme realm, they just haven't broken through yet.
After the great battle, there were still about 50,000 Great Dao Saints remaining.
As some people began to shut down their five senses and meditate, the rest realized what was happening and quickly followed suit.
However, at this moment, Nuwa, who was beside Ying Zheng, smiled slightly and said, "If they think that they can survive this calamity by sealing off their five senses, they are really too naive."
Ying Zheng simply smiled and nodded without saying a word.
This sacred chant of the Great Dao, even if you shut down your five senses, even if you self-isolate and enter a state of annihilation, it can still invade your primordial spirit and interrogate your Dao heart. (End of Chapter)
