Fighting: Xiao Yan at full level, leading the whole match

Upon receiving Xiao Yan's signal, the Saint of the Three Lotus Realm nodded slightly and quickly led the way for Xiao Yan.

Following behind this person, Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

A Saint at the Three Lotus Realm is comparable to a top-tier existence in the Great Thousand Worlds, a Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign. Fifty thousand years ago in the Heavenly Origin Realm, they were also a group of powerful figures standing at the very pinnacle.

However, in the current Tianyuan Realm, the Three Lotus Saints can only be considered as the backbone of the fighting force. Many Three Lotus Saints who have no hope of breaking through have already joined the Holy Dragon City and become guards under Yuan Zun.

After all, there are simply too many Three Lotus Saints in the Tianyuan Realm now.

"Ten thousand years from now, the Great Thousand World and the Flame God Realm should also look like this."

Xiao Yan followed behind this person, but his mind was filled with thoughts of the Great Thousand World and the Flame God Realm.

While the Three Lotus Saints might not seem like much to the upper echelons of the Heavenly Origin Realm, even within Holy Dragon City, they were truly formidable experts. Ordinary Heavenly Origin Realm powerhouses would still have to bow respectfully upon meeting them.

Therefore, as the two passed through the bustling streets, the pedestrians around them quickly realized that Xiao Yan must be an extraordinary figure, perhaps even a legendary deity, after seeing a Three Lotus Saint leading the group with such respect. They all hurriedly made way for him.

Soon, the two arrived at the magnificent palace. The palace where the banquet was being held was another side hall of this palace.

When Xiao Yan arrived, there were already hundreds of gods sitting there, seemingly waiting for him alone.

"Hehe, Emperor Yan, you've finally arrived. We've been waiting for you for quite some time."

After Xiao Yan entered the main hall, Yuan Zun Zhou Yuan looked at him with a smile and took the initiative to invite Xiao Yan to sit down next to him.

This scene left many of the gods present feeling incredulous. Although this Yuanzun was one of the more mild-mannered among the many Dao Integration Realm giants, he had been in a high position for a long time, and those in power always have some arrogance.

The fact that he allowed Xiao Yan to sit to the side shows that he highly approves of Xiao Yan, and that position is reserved for Creation Realm experts.

Recalling how Yuan Zun had previously made such a grand gesture by leading a large group of powerful figures to welcome them, they had many thoughts in their minds.

You should know that kind of treatment is something even ordinary creator gods don't receive.

Thinking of this, some of the gods looked at Xiao Yan with a mixture of contempt and apprehension, while others looked at him with a hint of resentment.

Everyone here is a god of the world, so why are you welcomed as soon as you appear by the Great Emperor of the Thousand Thousand Worlds and the Primordial Venerable? And now you are sitting in the position that only the Creator God can sit in. Is it because you are the legendary Chosen One?

Thinking about this, these people were quite unhappy.

Those who can cultivate to the level of World God are all the most outstanding geniuses in their respective great worlds. Before they came to Tianyuan Realm, they were all chosen ones in their own great worlds.

Of course, although they were quite unhappy, this was a banquet personally arranged by Yuan Zun, and they dared not cause trouble at this juncture, otherwise it would be disrespectful to Yuan Zun.

After Xiao Yan took his seat, he glanced at the group of powerful figures around him.

Among the many deities present, the majority were nascent-stage deities, totaling over a hundred or more. Most of them were innate deities, beings who were born at the nascent-stage.

However, it is precisely because of this that they are the ones who truly pledged allegiance to the Heavenly Origin Realm.

Innate deities, though seemingly powerful, being born as nascent deities, are actually full of treasures and easily targeted by powerful cultivators or other innate deities.

Although they are born with extremely great power, it is much more difficult for them to break through to the World Realm than for gods who cultivate to the Initial Realm.

Many innate deities spend their entire lives stuck at the threshold of the initial stage.

The remaining forty-odd are the world gods.

Among these world gods, more than twenty are directly under the Tianyuan Realm, that is, directly under the command of Yuan Zun, or are native world gods of the Tianyuan Realm, or have come from other great worlds.

The remaining twenty or so are from other great worlds. They usually live in the City of Myriad Realms and are responsible for the trade of their respective great worlds.

After all, those worlds that can send a World God to the Tianyuan Realm to do business and trade are relatively powerful worlds. Generally, there are at least three World Gods in charge of these worlds, and the strongest ones even have a Creator God in charge.

For example, in the Great World of Giant Spirits where the Earth Giant Puppet is located, there is a blue-skinned, burly man from the Xuan Shui Giant Clan sitting there.

His true form should also be a hundred feet tall, but in this palace he has been shrunk to a little over one foot tall, as a sign of respect for the Yuanzun and also as a sign of courtesy to the gods of other worlds.

Besides them, there was also a middle-aged man who was covered in gold, even his hair and eyebrows were gold. He looked at Xiao Yan but hesitated to speak, and there was a hint of unease in his eyes.

This is the Golden Sky Ancestor of the Nine Heavens Great World.

Xiao Yan only remembered what happened three days ago when he saw the blond man.

"Hehe, everyone, now that Emperor Yan has arrived, let's all introduce ourselves to him."

After Xiao Yan took his seat, one by one, beautiful maids began to serve dishes and wine.

These maids, whose strength would be comparable to a Great Perfection Earthly Sovereign in the Great Thousand World, could only serve as maids here.

The dishes and wines were all made from the meat of innate demon gods and ancient demon beasts, and even the wine was a divine brew that could enhance the cultivation of a Heavenly Supreme.

It's clear that this banquet is indeed extremely prestigious; many newly born deities wouldn't normally be willing to spend so lavishly.

At this moment, those powerful figures finally spoke.

"Heavenly Origin Realm, Purple Cloud Divine Venerable, Su Youwei."

"Tianyuan Realm, Martial God, Wu Yao."

"The Heavenly Origin Realm, the Devouring God, Zhao Mushen."

"Heavenly Origin Realm, Azure Abyss God Venerable, Azure Abyss."

The many powerful figures of the Tianyuan Realm were quite kind to Xiao Yan. They knew more about the affairs of the Great Thousand World than those of other Great Worlds, so they also knew that the Great Thousand World's great calamity back then was actually closely related to their Tianyuan Realm. Therefore, they were naturally more polite to Xiao Yan.

However, it was clear that many of the world gods from other great worlds had some opinions about Xiao Yan.

It wouldn't be accurate to call it an opinion, but seeing Xiao Yan, who was also a World God, receive such grand treatment, they couldn't help but feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"The Great World of Giant Spirits, the God of the Mysterious Water Realm!"

"The Ninth Divine Lord of the Golden Crow Great World."

"The Great World of Flowing Clouds, Daoist Lord of Flowing Clouds." "The Great World of Nine Heavens, Ancestor of Golden Heavens."

As Jin Xiao Patriarch introduced himself, he even gave Xiao Yan a kind smile.

Other world gods may question Xiao Yan's strength and potential, but what he wants most right now is to reconcile with Xiao Yan as soon as possible.

He is not like some of the world gods who have the master of the creator god as their backer, and he himself is a peerless genius who has the potential to become a creator god.

Their Nine Heavens Great World appears powerful, but the nine World Gods do not have an absolutely strong backer, and these nine World Gods are all quite ancient, with almost no possibility of becoming Creator Gods.

Moreover, even if he had that strength, so what? This Emperor Yan's backers are the Great Thousand Emperor and the Yuan Zun, both at the Dao Integration Realm.

"Ancestor Jinxiao".

Xiao Yan smiled and nodded, which made Ancestor Jin Xiao feel inexplicably relieved.

"Judging from Xiao Yan's appearance, he doesn't seem to have taken what happened that day to heart."

Ancestor Jinxiao breathed a slight sigh of relief.

After the group of deities finished their introductions, Xiao Yan finally stood up with a smile.

"In this vast world, there is Emperor Yan, Xiao Yan."

As soon as he finished speaking, the gods nodded in agreement. After the brief introduction, everyone began to eat and drink, and chat about interesting things from time to time.

At that moment, a voice finally rang out, echoing in the ears of every deity and making their eyes light up.

"Everyone, the Ancient Treasure World will open in three months. I wonder if any of you would be interested in joining me for a journey?"

The one who spoke was a golden-robed youth whose entire body was also golden, but whose aura was even more domineering, and whose eyes had golden flames dancing in them.

As he spoke, his gaze lingered on Xiao Yan, seemingly with a hint of provocation.

This golden-robed youth was none other than the Ninth Divine Lord of the Golden Crow Great World, a being at the peak of the World Realm.

The Golden Crow Great World is a world completely different from other great worlds. It is a world entirely composed of flames, and the many creatures living in it are all strange deities born from flames, many of whom are innate beings. It is an extremely unique great world.

Because many of the gods in the Golden Crow Great World evolved from stars.

In the universe, one in every few dozen stars has the potential to give birth to the Golden Crow True Fire. After a long period of sedimentation and the development of its spirituality to a certain degree, the Golden Crow True Fire will give birth to wisdom and become a fire spirit that is no different from a cultivator.

These fire spirits are born from stars. Once they truly cultivate into human form and begin their own cultivation system, they become terrifying beings comparable to Celestial Sovereigns.

In the universe, there are countless stars. Although only one in tens of thousands of stars can truly manifest a spirit and take human form, many Golden Crow Divine Flames, when gathered together, become beings like innate beings.

Then, these Golden Crow Divine Flames gathered together, and after a long period of evolution, two Creator Gods and thirteen World Gods were born. Under the call of the strongest Creator God, they formed the Golden Crow Great World.

The Ninth Divine Lord is the ninth-ranked World God in the Golden Crow Great World. Behind him are six World Gods who are even more powerful than him and two Creator Gods.

Moreover, because of their extremely small numbers, the Golden Crow clan is even more united, as close as brothers.

Therefore, the Ninth Divine Lord is so favored by two creator gods, and his background is quite extraordinary.

However, apart from Xiao Yan, the others present did not care about this. Their attention was more focused on the words "Ancient Hidden Great World".

"What? The Ancient Tibetan World is about to open!"

"This is a very rare opportunity. If we can obtain some of the treasures left behind by the Ancient Tibetan Emperor, we may have a chance to greatly improve our strength."

A group of people were discussing among themselves, and some of them noticed that the Ninth Divine Lord seemed to be intentionally testing the strength of the Flame Emperor.

However, they could understand. After all, Xiao Yan being favored by two Dao Integration Realm cultivators and receiving such a grand welcome from Yuan Zun made them quite unhappy. However, most of them did not have the background of the Ninth Divine Lord, so they were unwilling to offend Xiao Yan.

Now that the Ninth Divine Lord has spoken, they are happy to see it.

However, rather than testing Xiao Yan's strength, they were more concerned about the Ancient Hidden World at the moment.

The Ancient Tibetan World was the great world where the Ancient Tibetan Emperor once resided.

Although the Ancient Hidden Emperor was not a giant of the Dao Integration Realm, he was a peak Creator God. It is said that he was able to escape with his life even from the hands of a Dao Integration Realm expert. He was one of the strongest Creator Gods below the Dao Integration Realm.

Under his management, the Ancient Tibetan Great World was incredibly vast, far surpassing ordinary Great Worlds.

However, during that battle, he was besieged by two Dao Integration Realm demon gods at the same time, and in the end, he could not escape the fate of falling. Because of this, his friend, another true Dao Integration Realm giant, Emperor Xuanyuan, went mad and destroyed two great worlds of the demon god camp in one battle, killing dozens of gods before he stopped.

Unfortunately, no matter how crazy Emperor Xuanyuan was, he ultimately could not prevent the fall of Emperor Guzang.

Moreover, that battle nearly shattered the entire Ancient Tibetan Great World, causing the deaths of countless lives and turning it into a den of demons for ordinary beings.

However, what is a den of demons to ordinary creatures is a treasure trove to the gods.

A vast, ancient world has nurtured the power of primordial energy for countless years, along with precious treasures left behind by the ancient Tibetan emperor. Each of these represents an opportunity that could make even the gods rich overnight.

Therefore, upon hearing that the Ancient Tibetan World had reopened, the many gods were naturally filled with excitement.

Upon hearing this news, Xiao Yan was also slightly taken aback, and then revealed a look of excitement.

The Ancient Hidden World opens once every ten thousand years. In his previous life, when he came to the Heavenly Origin Realm, it had already closed. In this life, however, he never expected that he would arrive just in time for the opening of the Ancient Hidden World.

"If I could obtain the resources left behind by the Ancient Tibetan Emperor, it would be a piece of cake for me to step into the Creation Realm."

Xiao Yan looked on with anticipation and his gaze fell eagerly on the Ninth Divine Lord.

"I would like to ask the Ninth Divine Lord, when the Ancient Hidden Great World opens, could you please take me, Xiao Yan, with you?"

"Forehead."

The Ninth Divine Lord opened his mouth. He had originally planned to provoke Xiao Yan into going to the Ancient Hidden Great World together to see what was so different about this so-called Chosen One.

Unexpectedly, the other party took the initiative to come forward. (End of Chapter)
