All-Heavens Game, the Strongest Player

Chapter 381 Heaven and Earth
"While the priority to select 'Learn from the Wise' is held by high-ranking players, it cannot be changed once selected, and high-ranking players won't snatch it away. Moreover, you can only select from the list once the corresponding character appears; before it appears, no matter how high your priority is, you can't grab it!"

Chu Xiu looked at the list and said.

Zhou Wushang, meanwhile, looked around at the Primordial World and said, "Although this is the first time the Primordial World has been opened, the stories about it are widely circulated throughout the myriad realms, and most players know about them."

Once a character has been selected, a "selection waiting period" will begin.

During this period, other players can also make selections. When the waiting period ends, the player with the highest privileges will receive the selected character, while the others will re-enter the selection page.

During the waiting period, you can also see the number of people who have made the selection.

The player with the most players currently is Hongjun Laozu, with over a thousand people waiting. Although the Honghuang instance has never been opened before, the Fengshen instance, the Honghuang framework instance, and the Journey to the West instance with Honghuang elements have been opened more than once.

Therefore, everyone knows about the Three Pure Ones, the Two Western Saints, as well as the Dragon and Phoenix, and the Witch and Demon.

The existence of the Heavenly Dao Hongjun is no secret.

In this situation, regardless of whether there is any hope, many people will try their best, hoping for the best.

What if I manage to win it?

In comparison, the Three Pure Ones and others had far fewer competitors.

The Demon Ancestor Rahu, destined to perish, only has one choice—yes, that's right, as the current strongest being, Rahu only has one choice.

Nobody had any faith in it.

The main reason is that he is in the eye of the storm, destined to be targeted by the heavens, and the possibility of his demise is too great.

In addition, the more powerful a person is, the more difficult the Torch Relay mission becomes.

In addition, as the Demon Ancestor, his first impression is that he is "difficult to get along with," and if the mission of the Torch Relay fails, the chance of even guiding him to transcend will be very small.

No matter how you look at it, it's not a good choice.

"Which one are you going to choose?" Chu Xiu asked.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wushang smiled and said, "Then there's no need to choose! Of course, it's Houtu! Although the stronger you are, the more difficult the Torch Relay mission will be, and the greater the obstacles to transcendence will be, at least the chance of transcendence is much greater than for those who are weaker!"

She has always been very clear-headed.

The higher one's cultivation level, the greater the resistance to transcendence. This saying is similar to the idea that the more money one has, the more one spends.

But who is more likely to achieve financial freedom: the poor or the rich?
Who is more likely to become the world's richest person?
Of course, the better your foundation, the greater your opportunities—that's beyond doubt!
Therefore, the best choice for transcending the earthly path is Houtu. Similarly, the best choice for transcending the heavenly path is Hongjun, which is why thousands of people vie for him.

"Houtu is still in the process of being conceived and has not yet appeared. I have to wait!"

Zhou Wushang looked at Chu Xiu and asked, "What about you? Are you going to take Tiandao Hongjun or not?"

She asked whether to take it or not, rather than whether to snatch it, because Chu Xiu could definitely get any character he wanted. The same applied to her taking Houtu; even if Chu Xiu had already chosen a character, she wouldn't have to wait.

The mechanics of the game are not rigid.

When there's no suspense, many waiting mechanisms will be canceled.

"I'm quite confident in my transcendence of the Heavenly Dao, so I won't choose those powerful figures. I'll just pick one randomly and leave Hongjun to someone else. Anyway, those ranked higher are all our own people!" Chu Xiu said.

For him, the real challenge was transcending humanity.

Because the human way is not manifest, and the way is obscure, there is no way to transcend it.

As for the Heavenly Dao, he is almost 100% certain of transcendence—unlike others, Chu Xiu's talent did not fail here. The characteristics of the Infinite Man endowed him with the ability to become a saint even without the Primordial Purple Qi, and to continue to improve after becoming a saint.

As long as one cultivates diligently and accumulates enough, transcending the Heavenly Dao is inevitable. In fact, one doesn't necessarily have to prove the Dao through force.

Whether one severs the three corpses or achieves sainthood through merit, there is no upper limit, no constraint; one will transcend sooner or later.

"So what's your choice?" Zhou Wushang asked.

"Heaven and Earth!" Chu Xiu smiled and said, "Heaven and Earth, a match made in heaven, isn't that romantic?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wushang couldn't help but roll his eyes at him.

"This is no child's play, don't let it go wrong!"

Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "He won't fail! Huangtian is Haotian, who later became the Jade Emperor. On the surface, he may seem somewhat incompetent, but in reality, he is the supreme Heavenly Emperor who rules over the entire Three Realms. I even suspect that, if we disregard his attainment of sainthood, his cultivation level might be higher than that of some saints!"

There was one more thing he wasn't sure about, but he didn't say it.

That is, if the creator of the primordial world was another "him", then judging from his own experience, he would definitely not have created only one account, Pangu. He would have created another account in addition to Pangu.

Who could that number belong to?
If Chu Xiu had to choose, he would choose the "Jade Emperor".

"According to the game rules, transcending the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man is a condition for obtaining the mark. But if the mark itself exists, are there other ways to obtain it?" Chu Xiu wondered to himself. "If it were me, how would I hide the mark in this world?"

With that thought in mind, he took a step and arrived in the primordial wilderness.

As the first-place winner, he didn't need to wait.

After making a choice, one goes directly to the person they have chosen. Few people know that although the Jade Emperor established the Heavenly Court after the War of the Lich King and was ordered by the Dao Ancestor, he only rose to become the ruler of the Three Realms after the Investiture of the Gods.

But in fact, he already existed long before the Dragon-Han Calamity.

However, as an inconspicuous Daoist disciple beside the Dao Ancestor, he was subconsciously overlooked!

"A primordial god-demon resurrected, sharing my destiny? Interesting!" Haotian's face showed interest after Chu Xiu's arrival, and he asked, "By the way, which god-demon are you?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiu glanced at Haotian.

"you guess!"

Haotian: “…”

Kids, why are you guessing?
But then he looked at his small hands and body and had to admit that he was just a child. So he guessed, "I guess you are Rahu!"

This time, it was Chu Xiu's turn to be speechless.

"You guessed right, don't guess next time!"

He didn't reveal his identity, but simply waved his hand and put Haotian away, temporarily turning him into a "subordinate spirit".

Then check the tasks.

【Torch Relay Mission: The Spirit of Heaven and Earth】

[Details: As the spirit of heaven and earth, you are the born ruler of all things, destined to be the Heavenly Emperor of the Three Realms! Ascend to the throne within ten thousand years and obtain the 'right to distribute merit'!]

There's a countdown to follow.

"This task isn't that difficult!"
