79: The ancient immortal appears, the road to the emperor opens

“Genius Competition?” Su Xuan’s expression was blank. “Is that good news?”

What did the Genius Competition have to do with him?

Those so-called geniuses were nothing in front of him, not even worth a fart.

“I’m not done yet.”

The Great Evolution Holy Master smiled, not feeling the slightest discomfort at Su Xuan’s arrogance, and continued:

“The reward for the top hundred in this Genius Competition is the qualification to enter the Immortal Ancient World!”

“Immortal Ancient World?”

A sharp glint suddenly flashed in Su Xuan’s dark, profound eyes.

Clearly, Su Xuan was interested.

“Holy Lord, could you tell me more about it?” Su Xuan asked.

Su Xuan knew about the Immortal Ancient World, but not much.

“The Immortal Ancient World is a space independent of the Three Thousand Worlds, an ancient divine land.”

“It contains endless ancient freaks, sealed Quasi-Emperor descendants, and even many ancient races and primogenitors.......”

“Furthermore, the Immortal Ancient World is a land full of various fortuitous opportunities and treasures, including Holy Weapons, Immortal Medicine, divine abilities, and precious techniques…

Even Emperor Weapons, Immortal Medicine, and the legendary Ten Fiends’ precious techniques…

In short, whatever you desire, you might find it there.”

The Great Evolution Holy Master slowly explained.

The Great Evolution Holy Master’s words made Su Xuan’s heart slightly tremble.

Emperor Weapons, Immortal Medicine, and the Ten Fiends’ precious techniques—all of these made Su Xuan yearn for them immensely.

It seemed that the opportunities within this Immortal Ancient World indeed held great allure.

Any Cultivators in the world who were qualified to contend would likely not give up.

“If there’s enough Immortal Medicine inside, I might even be able to fully awaken the Chaotic Divine Demon Body!

At that time, my combat power will reach an unimaginable level!”

“It’s not over yet, the most important point is......”

The Great Evolution Holy Master hesitated for a moment, then slowly spoke, his tone serious.

“When Immortal Ancient appears, the Emperor Road opens.”

“Emperor Road?” Su Xuan was startled. “The path to becoming an Emperor?”

The Emperor Road only opens in a brilliant golden age.

And for it to open so quickly in this era, one could imagine just how brilliant this era was.

“Indeed, the opening of the Immortal Ancient World is often accompanied by the appearance of the Emperor Road. It’s almost like a warm-up, a preliminary preparation for the Emperor Road’s opening, and an Opportunity for all the Pride of the Heavens to improve themselves and unleash their potential.”

“Once the Immortal Ancient World closes, the Emperor Road will truly open. At that time, it will be a true battle among the top Pride of the Heavens!”

The Great Evolution Holy Master explained carefully to Su Xuan.

A gleam of light flashed in Su Xuan’s eyes. After the Great Evolution Holy Master’s explanation, he finally understood the importance of the Immortal Ancient World.

The Immortal Ancient World was a preparation for the Emperor Road, providing a platform for powerful Pride of the Heavens.

Once one missed it or failed to gain opportunities within it......

When the Emperor Road opened in the future, they would likely fall into a disadvantage and lose the qualification to compete with other top Pride of the Heavens!

“So, that’s why not all the Pride of the Heavens from the Dao Xuan World appeared in the Eastern Wilderness when the Bronze Immortal Hall opened last time… They didn’t want to get injured, nor did they want to take risks… They were waiting, waiting for the Immortal Ancient World to open......”

A sharp glint flashed in Su Xuan’s eyes as he thought of the Bronze Immortal Hall incident last time.

The Bronze Immortal Hall contained immortal opportunities, and logically, there shouldn't have been so few top Pride of the Heavens appearing.

At the time, Su Xuan was a bit puzzled.

Now that he knew the Immortal Ancient World was about to open, everything made sense.

“Only the top hundred in the Dao Xuan World Genius Competition are qualified?”

Su Xuan was slightly surprised.

In that case, entering the Immortal Ancient World didn’t seem that difficult?

For him, it should be a sure thing, right?

“Su Xuan, you don’t know this, but when the Genius Competition opens, true Pride of the Heavens will appear, far beyond what our Eastern Wilderness Pride of the Heavens can compare to.......”

“Furthermore, when the Genius Competition opens, the peerless Pride of the Heavens hidden by major forces throughout the entire Dao Xuan World will also emerge......”

“As far as I know, there are as many as a million Cultivators participating in this Dao Xuan World Genius Competition.”

Hiss......

Upon hearing this, Su Xuan’s pupils suddenly contracted, and he couldn’t help but gasp.

A million Cultivators?

Are there really that many Pride of the Heavens in the Dao Xuan World?

One hundred out of a million—this was truly one in ten thousand!

“Su Xuan, if you want to go, represent our Eastern Wilderness Great Evolution Holy Land. I believe if you work hard, there’s a certain chance you can make it into the top hundred.”

The Great Evolution Holy Master said this to Su Xuan.

“Holy Lord, do you not believe I can take first place?”

Su Xuan’s lips curled slightly as he smiled.

His goal was only first place, and it could only be first place!

This was Su Xuan’s confidence in his own strength!

Only.

At this moment, the space seemed to solidify.

The Great Evolution Holy Master remained silent for a long time.

After a while.

“First place???”

The Great Evolution Holy Master’s eyes widened, and he shook his head.

“Impossible. The Genius Competition gathers the top Pride of the Heavens from the entire Dao Xuan World. It’s truly like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea—there isn’t a single weakling......

I went once back then and barely made it into the top thousand. I couldn’t even see the scenery beyond that......”

The Great Evolution Holy Master seemed to recall something, his eyes filled with fear. After taking a deep breath, he continued:

“The Pride of the Heavens there, I never want to see them again. The pressure was simply too immense...... Many Cultivators were beings I had to look up to, like towering mountains, almost suffocating me.”

Su Xuan nodded, deep in thought, his lips moving as if to say something, but he ultimately remained silent.

“This is the participation token. Go to the Central Province Heavenly God Academy, and someone will arrange everything for you.”

The Great Evolution Holy Master handed a token to Su Xuan and said softly.

Su Xuan nodded. “Holy Lord, I understand.”

Su Xuan walked out of the main hall, gazing into the distance, his eyes profound.

“The Immortal Ancient World is about to open, the Genius Competition… Leng Ruoli should be going too.”

Su Xuan murmured to himself, and the next second, he vanished from the Great Evolution Holy Land.
