Everyone is looking forward to it

Inheritance Academy!

As one of the five strongest forces in the Void Domain, and the strongest among them, it is considered the most transcendent force in the entire Void Domain.

According to past custom, at this time, the Inheritance Academy should be filled with anticipation, excitement, liveliness, and joy.

After all, the Inheritance Academy is too transcendent, and the number of people on the list each year will not be small.

Every time the Heavenly Dao Rankings are revealed, it is a carnival for the Inheritance Academy.

It always pushes the Inheritance Academy to another Peak.

But at this moment!

The entire Inheritance Academy was dead silent.

Silence, oppression, and solemnity, like dark clouds, enveloped everyone's hearts.

On a majestic mountain, the three Vice Deans all stared intently at the Heavenly Dao Rankings.

“Will a miracle appear?”

In the silent stillness, Vice-Dean Ning Hao, one of the Vice Deans, spoke with a bitter expression.

The Asking Heart Sect, by blockading all the Prodigies in the northern Void Domain, undoubtedly aimed to monopolize the Heavenly Dao Rankings.

They found it hard to imagine that even the Inheritance Academy was targeted and left powerless to retaliate; could other Sect forces escape its clutches?

Would all the slots on the Heavenly Dao Rankings completely fall into the Asking Heart Sect's hands?

The thought of this terrifying fact made them feel a suffocating sensation in their hearts.

Now, they could only hope for a miracle to appear.

They hoped that a miracle could break the Asking Heart Sect's monopoly on the Heavenly Dao Rankings.

As Vice-Dean Ning Hao's voice faded, Deputy Dean Meng Zhengfei, the Chief Vice Dean, shook his head pessimistically.

“It’s impossible for a miracle to appear!”

“The Saint's schemes are simply not something the entire Void Domain can resist.”

“From today onwards, the entire Void Domain is about to usher in an unprecedented period of weakness.”

He closed his eyes, already able to envision the coming scene: the entire ranking list would likely be dominated by the Asking Heart Sect, and the thought of that terrifying scenario made him dizzy.

…

Li Huo Sect!

On the boundless, vast training ground, Ye Ji stood tall, looking up at the Heavenly Dao Rankings!

Around her, the Six Sects Masters were gathered.

Below her, tens of thousands of Asking Heart Sect Disciples were assembled.

Today, Ye Ji was radiant and charming, full of confidence and extraordinary spirit, with her blood surging, purely from excitement.

“The Sect’s many years of planning, and our schemes targeting the entire Void Domain, have finally reached the time of harvest!”

She murmured to herself, with streams of light swirling around her body.

Her usual composure was gone, replaced by a display of flamboyance and ease.

“My lady, the Child of Ultimate Bliss, Extinction Supreme, and the Masters of the Thunder Vein and Wind Vein are missing; there’s still no news of them. I have a bad feeling about this,” the Mystic Realm Master beside her said thoughtfully at this moment.

Ye Ji waved her hand: “It doesn’t matter!”

“After the Heavenly Dao Rankings conclude, I will personally take action to find them.”

“Now is a crucial moment for our Asking Heart Sect to harvest the Heavenly Dao Rankings; whether they are here or not makes little difference!”

As she spoke, her gaze swept across the surrounding crowd.

To her surprise, she didn't see Yuan Xiaotian's figure.

From what she knew of Yuan Xiaotian, shouldn't he be appearing before her at this moment, bowing and flattering?

At such a glorious moment in her life, it felt a bit unaccustomed to be without a fawning lackey.

Ye Ji didn't think much of it. This was destined to be a glorious day for the Asking Heart Sect, one that would be recorded in history.

For this day, she had made too many plans and preparations.

She could now confidently say that all the slots on the Heavenly Dao Rankings would be occupied by the Asking Heart Sect.

There was simply no possibility of any accidents.

Now, the most important thing was to wait, to wait and enjoy the glorious moment that belonged exclusively to the Asking Heart Sect.

To wait and pluck the fruits of victory that belonged exclusively to the Asking Heart Sect!

…

Chaotic Land!

Phoenix Feather Sect!

The anomaly on the Heavenly Dao Rankings naturally drew the full attention of the Phoenix Feather Sect.

At this moment, over two million Disciples, from the Burning Fire Child and Sweeping Old Woman to Feng Buqun, Phoenix Aotian, the Twelve Demon Generals, and even high-ranking figures like Qilin, including Zhong Qing, were all observing the changes on the Heavenly Dao Rankings.

Inside the Heavenly Dao Institute!

Zhong Qing stood in the square, his hands clasped behind his back, a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

Time really flew by quickly!

Unknowingly, a year had passed just like that.

The announcement of the Heavenly Dao Rankings this time even made him start to anticipate it.

Even Zhong Qing was like this.

Not to mention the Disciples of the Heavenly Dao Institute!

Sword Wushuang stood among the crowd.

“I wonder if my Three Saint Body, plus my cultivation from the Earth Mystic Realm to the Half-step Myriad Laws Realm within a year, can get me into the top one thousand of the Heavenly Dao Rankings?”

It wasn’t that he lacked confidence; it was simply that the progress of these Heavenly Dao Institute Disciples was too astonishing.

One year’s time!

Some had advanced from the Three Yang Realm to the Myriad Laws Realm.

Some had advanced from the Myriad Laws Realm to the Returning to One Realm.

Ling Wushuang was even more abnormal, directly advancing from the Returning to One Realm to the Venerable Realm.

He became the truly highest-Realm cultivator among the Heavenly Dao Institute students.

With the First Heaven of the Venerable Realm, he looked down on all others.

In terms of Realm, Ling Wushuang's improvement was the most outstanding.

It could be said that none of the current Heavenly Dao Institute students were below the Half-step Myriad Laws Realm.

Sixty percent of them were Myriad Laws Realm powerhouses, and thirty percent were Returning to One Realm experts.

And among all of them, the greatest improvement belonged to a few True Disciples under Zhong Qing's tutelage.

Lin Feng, Su Ye, and Du Hao were only in the Tianxuan Realm when they arrived in Central Province.

Later, they were sent to the Heavenly Dao Institute, and their cultivation progressed like a broken bamboo, rising steadily, all breaking through to the Three Yin Realm.

After consuming the upgraded Innocent Pill, they were directly thrown into the Time Pagoda by Zhong Qing.

With the thousand-fold cultivation time boost.

Now, each of them was already a Returning to One Realm powerhouse.

This was even with them not rushing for quick success, only seeking to lay the strongest Foundation.

If they had blindly pursued upgrade speed, they would probably have achieved the Venerable Realm by now, which would not have been difficult.

To advance from the Tianxuan Realm to the Returning to One Realm in one year, if word got out, it would definitely stun a large number of people.

Even compared to Zhong Qing's speed of improvement, it was not slow.

Zhong Qing looked at his vigorous Disciples, one by one, and nodded with satisfaction.

Over the past year, in the latter part of the time, the cultivation returns from his Disciples had all been stored in his System, just waiting for one final explosive boost.

With the cultivation returns provided by these Disciples, plus the System rewards obtained from this Heavenly Dao Rankings, this wave would surely allow him to soar to the heavens.

“I just don’t know how far it will push my cultivation in the end? I’m really looking forward to it!”

Zhong Qing muttered to himself, feeling a surge of excitement in his heart.

The feeling of cultivation increasing in large waves, just thinking about it made him excited.

As Zhong Qing was thinking this.

The rankings on the Heavenly Dao Rankings finally revealed a glimpse of their true appearance!
