I created an extraordinary era

The list for Chapter 690 has been released; the countdown has begun.
After learning about the information about the cervix.

After several days of seclusion, Nangong Hong meticulously compiled his entire process of awakening the "Power Source Aperture Palace," including his insights, key moments, and the dangers he encountered, into a detailed "Initial Explanation of the Aperture Palace."

Nangong Hong never kept any knowledge about cultivation to himself.

It's not necessary.

In Nangong Hong's view, true top geniuses can still succeed even without his experience.

Moreover, Nangong Hong disdains maintaining a so-called leading position by monopolizing knowledge.

What he longs for is someone to compete with him.

If there isn't even one person to compete with, how lonely must this extraordinary path be?
Unfortunately, the gap between him and those who once walked alongside him has widened considerably.

Only Ji Xuan was able to keep up with Nangong Hong's pace.

Even those with extraordinary talents like Bai Zhengyu and Ji Ruxue have been left far behind by him, and it has become extremely difficult for them to even catch up with him.

……

for the rest of the time.

Spurred on by Nangong Hong, everyone felt a long-lost sense of urgency.

In the past, they were never in a hurry.

After all, the lifespan of those in the Unity Realm can reach three hundred years, but they are generally not even eighty years old now.

Especially for these top figures, the past twenty years have been quite comfortable.

Having reached their level of status and power, they have essentially stood at the top of human society.

Resources and power are readily available to them, and external threats can hardly shake them in the slightest.

Prolonged comfort, like a frog being slowly boiled in water, gradually erodes their spirit.

This has turned cultivation into more of a habitual accumulation rather than a life-or-death struggle.

Nowadays, very few people can still maintain the same spirit they had when they first embarked on the extraordinary path!

But things are completely different now.

It's no longer a question of who cultivates faster or slower.

If one cannot awaken the Qi Palace, then one cannot even break through to the Unity Realm.

This is absolutely unacceptable to these top figures.

Moreover, awakening only one acupoint is probably not enough.

To move faster in the future, you must awaken more of your inner palaces.

But even it took Nangong Hong sixteen years to awaken one of his acupoints.

If we calculate it that way, it would take at least 150 years to awaken all nine acupoints.

But the question is, can it really go that smoothly?

This thought, like a dark cloud, loomed over everyone's mind.

It took Nangong Hong sixteen years to awaken his first "Power Source Aperture Palace," a period filled with peril and near-death experiences.

This is just the very first one!
The subsequent awakening of the acupoints will only increase the difficulty, and the dangers will be even more unpredictable.

Based on this speed, the time required to awaken the seven or eight or even more acupoints mentioned by the Ancestor would probably far exceed their expectations, and they might not even be able to achieve it in their entire lives!

After all, the lifespan of a cultivator in the Unity Realm is only three hundred years.

If Nangong Hong is like this, what about the others?
Many people find it extremely difficult not only to awaken their vital energy centers, but even to open their acupoints.

In the current Guiyi Realm, most people have opened fewer than ten acupoints.

According to Nangong Hong, the resonance occurred when he opened his forty-fifth acupoint.

Forty-five acupoints.

How long would it take other people to open up so many acupoints?
Twenty years, thirty years, or fifty years?
This timeframe is not an exaggeration.

After all, Nangong Hong was able to open so many acupoints only after his martial arts realm reached the mid-stage of Transformation, his fire intent reached the third stage, and his cultivation reached the third level of flesh and skin.

Most of the other experts in the Unity Realm are still at the beginner level of Transformation Force, and some are even only at the peak of Dark Force.

There are only four people who have reached the initial stage of the Transformation Realm.

Yuan Liren, Sikong Yang, Xuanyuan Yungui, and Liu Xiaoyan!
With their current strength, they simply cannot open up so many acupoints.

In the past.

Many people think that three hundred years is an extremely long time.

But now, three hundred years seem so short and urgent!
If you don't seize the time to improve your realm and cultivation, then let alone awaken the seven or eight acupoints, you'll probably struggle to even awaken three or four.

The pressure from this realization is far greater than any external threat. Because it concerns the path to enlightenment!
As someone who became an extraordinary being at the beginning of the extraordinary era, who would be willing to stop at the Unity Realm?
Or is there no way to progress in the future?

For people like them, the most despairing thing is having their path cut off.

Therefore, the upcoming opening of the Myriad Phenomena Sky Road will become extremely important.

Whether it's a grandmaster in the Transcendent Realm or a top expert in the Unity Realm.

Anyone who ranks at the top in the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Path will emerge completely transformed.
……

Time flies.

More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

The assessment of the Vientiane Sky Road has finally come to a complete end.

"Minister Xie, the list is complete!"

11 month 15 day.

The final list, determined after layers of screening, was quickly presented to Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan took the list and asked as he spoke:
"Oh? How many people?"

"Reporting to the Minister, there are a total of 3618 people."

"Among them, there are 652 extraordinary individuals at the Innate Realm, 2541 Grandmasters, and 425 Great Grandmasters!"

"Three thousand six hundred people? That's not bad."

Xie Xuan nodded and opened the list.

Although the list contains more than three thousand names, only one hundred people have detailed introductions.

That is, the ten people who performed the best in each realm.

The one at the very front was none other than a transcendent being at the Innate Realm.

Qi Hui (Lingxiao Academy): 27 years old, peak Innate Realm cultivation, early stage of Dark Force in martial arts, first stage of Fire Intent. He once single-handedly killed a peak Innate Realm demon beast in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, ranking first overall.

[Hila (Aurora Academy): 28 years old, peak Innate Realm cultivation, early stage of Dark Force in martial arts, first stage of Water Intent. She once single-handedly killed a peak Innate Realm demonic beast in the Arctic Ocean. Overall ranking: second.]

[Gao Fenghua (Origin Academy): 30 years old, second stage of Transcendent Realm cultivation, mid-stage Dark Force martial arts realm, first stage of Wind Intent Realm, and already able to integrate intent into martial arts, ranked first overall.]

[Zhou Qiyuan (Principal of Jiangcheng Extraordinary University): 82 years old, peak sixth level of Transcendent Realm cultivation, peak of Dark Force in martial arts, second stage of Wind Intent, independently created the extraordinary martial art "Nine Swords of Rending Wind", ranked tenth overall.]

[Augustus (Origin Academy): 43 years old, peak seventh-level Transcendent Realm cultivation, peak Dark Force martial arts realm, second stage of Wind Intent, second stage of Fire Intent. Creator of two extraordinary martial arts techniques, "Exploding Flame Wind Slash" and "Holy Light Fist," ranked first overall.]

[Chen Feng (Origin Academy): 48 years old, peak eighth level of Transcendent Realm cultivation, peak of Dark Force in Martial Arts, third stage of Wind Intent. Ranked first in overall evaluation.]

[Long Youzhu (Origin Academy): 54 years old, ninth level of Transcendent Realm cultivation, martial arts realm mid-stage Dark Force, third stage of Wind Intent, third stage of Water Intent, has condensed divine soul, ranked second in overall evaluation]

Xie Xuan's gaze swept quickly across the list.

The people on the list represent the most outstanding combat power and potential of the younger generation of the human race.

Some of them were people Xie Xuan knew, while others were people he had never heard of before.

Finally, there is the list of those who have reached the Unity Realm.

There are a total of 28 people.

These 28 people were not given any introduction; their names were simply listed.

The One Realm is not among the 3618 people.

Once you reach the Unity Realm, you can enter the core area.

However, so far...

Of the 28 Returning to One Realm cultivators, 26 came from the Origin Academy.

Only Feng Hao and Feng Yuanshan came from the military.

"Are all preparations complete for the opening of the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Path?"

"Reporting to Minister Xie, it has all been completed."

The visitor nodded, then continued:
"All information will be transmitted to the outside world through the Skyway Certificate, which can absolutely ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"In that case, let's begin preparations!"

A moment later, Xie Xuan closed the list, his voice steady and powerful, and gave the final instruction.

"Notify all selected participants that the Vientiane Sky Road will officially open in one and a half months! Tell them to be fully prepared!"

"Failure to arrive within a week will be considered an automatic abandonment."

"Yes!"
