The game begins with a visit to a holy land, only to discover that one's ancestor was a human e

And the swordsman who followed him was undoubtedly a genius on the same level as the holy ape!

Even in terms of lethality, Jianzi is one of the best among those of the same level!

However, he couldn't even move the Heavenly Gate an inch, and he himself was instead blasted away and severely injured, the divine sword wailing.

Is this a difference in strength? Not at all!

However, people like Jianzi never met the standards of Xuanhuang Immortal Gold from the very beginning.

No matter how profound the way of the sword is, or how powerful its destructive force is, those who walk different paths will ultimately not be able to work together.

This also made many cultivators feel sorry for Jianzi.

Everyone thought the sacred ape was a stepping stone, but who would have thought that you would be the real test stone?

"So, if that's the case..." someone realized, understanding the seriousness of the situation.

"Won't this round eliminate more than half of the people?!"

"Hmm!!" Upon hearing this, everyone seemed to realize something and could not hide their seriousness.

"Wouldn't all those monsters have worked for nothing?!"

"Shh... Keep your voice down! Be careful, look over there..." one person whispered, quickly gesturing to warn them.

Some people were confused, but when they looked in the direction he was pointing, all the sounds suddenly stopped.

On the other side of the sky, strange phenomena were already occurring, and the killing intent was almost about to break through the veil of darkness.

Many of the monstrous beings had ashen faces, their auras leaking out uncontrollably.

Sword's failure has already shown too much.

To some extent, he represents many people here.

However, the worst fears have ultimately come true.

To advance to the next level, is pure physical strength the only option?

What is this?

The dozens of extraordinary individuals here, aside from those of the divine race, true dragons, and phoenixes who possess innate physical strength, or a few exceptional individuals like Feng Zhi and Ba Cang who primarily cultivate their physical bodies, are all from this group.

Almost everyone else is going to be eliminated!

This so-called Immortal Gold Trial was destined from the very beginning to eliminate more than half of the candidates!

Although they are forbidden from living in the Eight Realms, they are extraordinary in terms of bloodline, physique, and other aspects, and their physical bodies are far superior to those of ordinary people.

But their true reliance has never been solely on their physical bodies!

In terms of physical strength, at most it's only at the limit of the seventh level!

How could they possibly push open that heavenly gate that even the holy ape could barely budge?

To decide someone's fate based on such absurd rules? To put them in such an embarrassing situation.

How is this any different from playing a game!

In an instant, various violent auras intertwined around the Heavenly Gate, as if the gods were enraged.

There were also a few exceptional individuals who, like them, were affected by the rules, but their expressions remained largely unchanged.

Jiang Xi's blue eyes rippled gently, like a dragonfly skimming the water.

From the moment she stepped onto that ancient, mysterious road, she already knew that she could not cross that threshold.

The Dao embryo can communicate with all things, and naturally it can also listen to all things.

That's why she understood better than anyone the desire of the Xuanhuang Mother Gold to choose its master.

Jiang Xi sighed inwardly.

After losing to Feng Zhi, the proud and self-reliant woman experienced a brief period of depression.

Later, it dawned on me that their physical attributes differed from their starting point, and there might still be a chance to turn the tide in the future!

She arrived with renewed confidence, a confidence born from her own strength after entering the Eighth Forbidden Realm.

However, in this battlefield teeming with forbidden elements, while she was not weak, she was not particularly outstanding either.

Now, after repeated setbacks, she has come to terms with reality, and a vague, indescribable emotion has crept into her heart. The things she once resisted have begun to waver.

Her beautiful blue eyes gazed at Feng Zhi, who stood out like a crane among chickens. Even among so many geniuses, he was still dazzling.

Jiang Xi knew in her heart that the Immortal Gold would most likely fall into his hands, and at that time, the gap between them would only widen.

Unlike Jiang Xi's complex emotions, Qing Qiu Lian wore her regret on her face.

But that is clearly unrelated to immortal gold.

She had little interest in the Xuanhuang Mother Gold to begin with, and she was well aware of her own limitations. Trying to snatch food from the mouths of the True Dragons was nothing short of a pipe dream!

She initially came here just to join in the fun.

But who would have thought that, as if the ancestral emperor had manifested his power, she would encounter the person here who resonated with her soul.

Now, however, we must part ways briefly, and I will not be able to witness his unparalleled brilliance in person. This is truly heartbreaking for Fox.

"Waaaaah..."

As Qingqiu Lian pondered, she seemed to have touched a nerve, and began to sob softly, a sound only she could hear.

She took out an embroidered handkerchief and gently wiped away the non-existent tears, like a little fox who had been bullied.

Qingqiu Lian's series of inexplicable actions naturally could not be kept secret from the ancient ant sitting on her head.

The ancient ant, who had transformed into a divine child, looked grim, her face contorted in pain. She appeared both small and old, making it hard to imagine the agony she was enduring.

She gritted her teeth, her fists trembling, suppressing the urge to beat Qingqiu Lian to death, and began to meditate on the spot, feeling utterly exhausted.

"I can't stand your jerk attitude!!"

Just then, a voice rang out! Filled with boundless rage capable of scorching the heavens, the newcomer seemed to be on the verge of exploding.

Countless people looked over at the sound and saw a young prodigy with extraordinary bearing stepping out from the crowd, his face terribly gloomy.

This person possessed boundless magical power, and with each step he took, countless runes appeared and disappeared beneath his feet, clearly indicating that he was an eccentric genius who reigned supreme in magical power!

"Only physical strength can push you away? I refuse to believe it! Watch how I, relying on that so-called heretical method, will shatter you inch by inch!!"

With a roar, his magical power surged into the sky like a constellation of stars.

A colossal, towering statue materialized behind him, exuding sacred majesty, like a god descending to earth.

He pressed down with both palms decisively, and the divine statue moved with its master, unleashing a massive handprint of light powerful enough to overturn the heavens, pressing directly against the Heavenly Gate.

The light imprint was so powerful that the void seemed to buzz.

But the instant it crashed into the Heavenly Gate, it vanished without a trace, as if it had been swallowed up.

But the matter is not over yet.

The dark yellow patterns on the surface of the Heavenly Gate lit up, and the force of the counterattack was like an angry dragon emerging from the sea, crashing into the visitor's chest amidst the incredulous gazes of the crowd.

"Bang!!"

He was sent flying backwards out of the Xuanhuang sky, crashing through several hills in his path, blood gushing from his mouth as he slammed into the earth.

Those demons who were initially defiant felt a chill in their hearts upon seeing this scene, their anger subsided considerably, and their eyes became much clearer.

Just moments ago, some people were indignant, feeling that the rules were absurd and unfair, but now they are left with nothing but utter helplessness.

No one is foolish enough to rush forward and invite humiliation; there have been enough examples of this before.

Meanwhile, Jianzi, who had also been blasted underground, made a move at this very moment, as if he had been waiting for it for a long time.

He grasped the three-foot-long sword beside him, which was still groaning but didn't forget to mock its master for feigning death, and retreated to a deserted corner.
