Everyone holds the Ten Thousand Souls Banner? In our great nation of Yanhuang, everyone is a demon c

The universe is vast and eternal, and it is like a dream.

For millions of years, countless cultivators have bravely moved forward on this ancient land, forging their own legends in blood and fire. However, there has never been an era as magnificent as today.

The training era - this is an era that belongs to everyone who truly desires to be strong.

It is also an era for every practitioner to hone themselves and break free from the shackles of fate.

In this era, the winner is no longer determined by talent and bloodline, but by "method" and "will". Everyone can find their own way in this world.

It is in this historical context that the situation changes again and everything changes.

Countless practitioners use their own strength to explore the laws of heaven and earth and outline the blueprint of the soul. They awaken in training and sublimate in combat. They no longer rely on opportunities given by others, and no longer wait for the guidance of masters. They rely on their own understanding, actions and the obsession that has never been extinguished.

These are the practitioners of today. They have their feet on the earth but their hearts are toward the heavens.

In the Howling Mountains, a huge war simulation is unfolding.

Tens of thousands of practitioners, wearing armor and holding spiritual weapons, are participating in high-level combat training under the supervision of hundreds of saints.

Chen Xiu stood on the highest floating battle platform, looking down at the entire battlefield. His eyebrows were deep and his eyes were as sharp as a knife.

At this moment, he was no longer a cultivator fighting alone, but the core figure who dominated the entire training era.

He knew very well that a truly strong person does not rely on a momentary burst of power, but rather develops a "way of fighting" that truly belongs to him through constant honing and trial and error.

Therefore, under his proposal, all the major gods and holy places in the heavens responded and established the [Universal Training Domain], gathering geniuses, saints, independent cultivators, and disciples of ancient clans. Everyone trained in war and sought change.

"Have you seen them?" An old man in blood-red armor said in a deep voice behind Chen Xiu, "These people are not the strongest, but they are the most able to 'adapt to the times'."

"I don't need a perfect person." Chen Xiu smiled faintly, his eyes like lightning, "What I want are the living people who can make it to the end, those who understand what the 'plan' is."

In this era, plans become the key to determining the fate of cultivators.

Is it to refine the body with fire? Hammer the soul with ice? Lock the heart with array? Refine the spirit with magic?

Each choice is a gamble. But now they no longer need to fantasize. In the "training era", they put these theories into practice one by one and came up with their own answers.

——This is a leap in the evolution of the entire cultivation civilization.

Because of this, more and more practitioners realize that the once lofty "inheritance" and "supernatural powers" are no longer the only way out.

Now, anyone can create their own solution.

Those once unknown independent cultivators, those once lonely disciples who practiced hard in the remote frontier areas, have now jumped onto the wave of the times.

They are the real elites in this "great selection".

"It's time." Chen Xiu looked into the distance. That was the [Ancient Burial God Domain] thousands of miles away. It was rumored that a disaster that could overturn the world was brewing there. "Their 'training' must reach its true end."

“Real combat.”

The training period is not the end, it is just the beginning of all preparations.

And now, they will officially step into the real battlefield with the "personal plans" refined during training.

Thus, a large army of strong men from the "training era" was formally assembled, led by Chen Xiu himself. Among them, there were soldiers who could break the formation with a single thought, soul cultivators who could achieve nirvana against time, sword cultivators who could crush the world with their artistic conception, and talisman cultivators who could communicate with the rules of the galaxy.

Everyone is a pride of the training era.

Every pair of eyes is clear and sharp.

"None of you was chosen by the times." Chen Xiu stood with his hands behind his back in the air, his voice as loud as thunder, "You, chose this era yourselves."

"You are the best start in my heart."

He waved his hand, and thousands of rays of light descended from the sky, shining on their bodies - that was the [Battle Mark], the "credential to heaven" they had obtained through training, and the mark that allowed them to participate in this final decisive battle.

The moment the battle pattern fell, the aura of all the practitioners suddenly changed.

They finally completed the transformation of their identities, from "trainers" to "fighters".

At this moment, the entire wilderness was silent, as if the heaven and earth were making way for them.

They stepped out step by step, towards the long-awaited "ultimate battlefield".

There is no simulation there, only real life and death.

There are no drills, only real clashes of fate.

But they are fearless.

Because they have completed the most difficult "self-awakening".

They know who they are and what they are fighting for.

Each of them is an irreplaceable sharp blade in this war.

And Chen Xiu is the sharpest sword among the thousands of troops.

He no longer fights alone.

He is the leader of thousands of warriors in the entire era.

And this will also be the moment when the [Training Era] comes to an end.

It is the day when warriors set sail, and it is the bell for destiny to restart.

"Everyone!" Chen Xiu held up the holy weapon, and the light illuminated the world. "From now on - we will no longer train."

"Let's go to war!"

As he roared, the army moved together, war clouds surged, and swords and horses tore through the sky.

The [training era] has come to an end.

[Battle Era]——Start from now on.

The world began to change, and the wind and thunder were surging. In the prehistoric world, the laws of the universe surged like a tide, as if warming up for the upcoming decisive battle. At this moment, all practitioners were immersed in the torrent of the "training era" - countless people traveled through the ruins, studied the classics, and brewed their own unique mental methods, just to find the best combat plan for themselves.

On the top of Tianlang Mountain, hundreds of talented disciples held spears, accompanied by the mountain wind, and practiced the "Four Symbols Chain Formation" to break through. Each position in the formation was controlled by one person. When the four symbols gathered, they could turn into spirit snakes, appearing and disappearing, making it difficult for the opponent to move. Liu Hanshuang, a 23-year-old boxing genius, performed this formation for the first time and was able to master it. He also shuttled through it with ghostly flashes, which was amazing.

In the Nine Nether Abyss, the disciples of the Lotus Sect were forced into a narrow valley, refining the icy spiritual light of the Nightmare Pool and extracting the "Ice Soul Lotus Heart Sutra". With a soft singing, the cold light in the sky bloomed like lotus petals, freezing the void and turning the invading fire magic into ice chips. Qingdai, a disciple with little cultivation, relied on this sutra to withstand three layers of fire walls without any damage, and her reputation spread far and wide.

At the same time, in the raging sea of ​​fire in Huangdeng Valley, "Red Flame God Trees" grow tenaciously in the sea of ​​fire. The Valley Master combines the power of the Fire Spirit with the gold attribute to derive the "Refining Flame Golden Armor Technique", which can forge the body and bones in the red flames, making the flesh and blood as hard as gold. Countless wild warriors take turns to enter the fire, constantly tempering their bodies, and their skin is as white as copper and their muscles and bones are as hard as steel. Yan Wuhen, the youngest Yuanying disciple of Huangdeng Valley, reaches the third layer of golden armor in just seven days, shocking the world.

In the ruins of Fuguang City, a relic of the heavens, the disciples of the Fu Sect held the fragments of the scrolls and integrated the five elements of the talismans to create the "Starfall Thousand Talisman Formation". They suspended thousands of talismans in the void, and with their thoughts, they turned them into a rain of stars. Every rune that fell could detonate the laws of heaven and earth and temporarily defeat the opponent's spiritual consciousness. The talisman cultivator Yingxing smiled softly. She detonated nine thousand runes at once, suppressing a golden immortal half-step, stunning the audience.

This kind of training is not just for entertainment, but for the official "Battle of the Chosen One". Under the call of Chen Xiu, the strongest people from all over the world were divided into seven camps for the final training and test. The seven formations represent the five elements of heaven and earth, light and darkness, life and death, and correspond to the seven saint leaders. In each camp, Chen Xiu personally selected the most suitable and reliable practitioners in his mind.

——Liu Yancui, the "Flowing Cloud Sword Dance" of the Wood Camp, has a ethereal but continuous sword technique;
——Yan Wuhen, the master of the "Flame Dragon Hammer Technique" of the Fire Camp, is as strong as a mountain and is fearless in the sea of ​​fire;
——The "Great Wilderness Guardian Formation" of the Earth Camp, the Mountain and River Ancestor, has a dome-shaped formation that can suppress the wind and sand for hundreds of miles;
——The "Refining Flame Gold Armor Technique" of the Gold Camp was demonstrated by Yan Wuhen again, and the flesh was so strong that it could not be broken even if buried in the ground;

——Qing Dai, the "Ice Soul Lotus Heart Technique" of the Water Camp, restrained seven Fire Fighters by herself;
——The Light Camp’s “Holy Light Continuous Reflection Technique” The Son of Dawn of the Holy Light Temple can instantly heal injuries with the power of light and shadow;

——The leader of the Night Demon Sect, Youmei, who is a member of the Dark Camp's "Wanmei Youdun", uses the Yinsha technique to kill silently.

The seven formations have different focuses, but they all converge into one - only by integrating the mutual generation and restraint of the five elements and the birth and death of light and darkness can one be invincible in the battle of the chosen one. Chen Xiu placed the seven formations on the same battlefield, and through days of drills, he allowed the formations to constantly rub and evolve, encouraging them to inspire new tactics in the collision.

On the first day of the confrontation, the light and dark arrays met. The Son of Dawn used the holy light to reflect the ice technique, but was cracked by the Wan Mei You Dun of the Phantom Sect Master - thousands of shadows were hidden in the holy light, making it difficult for Dawn to find his brothers and sisters. When both sides were hurt, Chen Xiu pointed out at the right time: "Light and darkness are originally one. You need to perceive the shadow in the light and break the darkness with light; darkness is also bred in the light. You need to glimpse the brilliance in the darkness and control the light with darkness." Suddenly, Dawn and Phantom had an epiphany, and the two performed the "Light and Dark Interweaving Array" together, with both holy light purification and shadow raids, attack and defense in one, and the power doubled. It is more than just dual cultivation, but more like a transformation.

The next day's drill was a battle between water and fire. Qingdai was covered in cold light, but was forced back by Yan Wuhen's high-temperature hammer with the "Flame Dragon Hammer Technique". Chen Xiu smiled and said, "Water can overcome hardness with its softness, and it can also control fire; ice can only condense with water. You need to use the agile water method to guide the ice soul and use the continuous cold current to devour the flames." Qingdai practiced hard for days and used the "Ice Sea Return Tide" formation to counter Yan Wuhen. For a time, the cold wave swept across the sea of ​​fire, but it was suppressed by layers of cold waves. The interweaving of water and fire actually formed a beautiful chapter.

The seven formations were practiced in this way, and almost everyone was learning and growing from each other: the Wood Camp learned the stability of earth and the flexibility of water, the Earth Camp absorbed the toughness of metal and the sharpness of fire, and the Metal Camp comprehended the tolerance of water and the fiery of light... In the end, under Chen Xiu's coordination, the seven formations were transformed into a complete "Heaven and Earth Five Elements·Life and Death Double Wheel Formation": the five elements complemented each other, light and darkness ran in parallel, life was endless, and death was endless.

On the eve of the decisive battle, Chen Xiu led the seven formations of saints to gather on the Tianxuantai. Tianxuantai is a thousand-foot round platform engraved with ancient runes, which can connect to the realm of the heavens and summon the fighting spirits from the other side to help. At this time, the runes flowed, the heaven and earth trembled, and the devil flames, fairy lights, and demon breaths from the heavens gathered one after another. (End of this chapter)
