However, Donghuang didn't blush when she said this. When it comes to bullying the weak, she is the real bully. She is a dignified Heavenly Emperor of the Eastern Heaven Realm, pretending to be a little fairy.

If that Golden Immortal he just sent out knew that he had provoked an Immortal Emperor and survived, he would probably boast about it for the rest of his life.

Seeing that Donghuang seemed to be protecting Ye Liuyun, the Golden Immortals immediately snorted and left. They were unwilling to provoke a guy with a Celestial Lord-level magic weapon. If they were eliminated, they would probably cry their eyes out.

Ye Liuyun originally wanted to thank Donghuang, but Donghuang was so arrogant that she couldn't help but mutter a complaint in her heart.

"Although I really want to thank you for helping me, you're too arrogant, aren't you? Judging from your aura, I would think you were the Heavenly Emperor." Ye Liuyun muttered to himself.

Soon, the fifty slots for passing through the corridor where Ye Liuyun and his group were located were determined.

"Congratulations, all fifty of you have passed the first test. You may now proceed to the end and await the start of the second test." Shen Linghua's voice rang out again.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"We finally made it! That was so close!" Many celestial beings kept wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads.

This Divine Treasure Trial offers many opportunities, but the risks are equally great. It's uncertain whether the next level will follow the same rules. To be honest, if it does, some of them might want to back out, since they've already gained enough from the first level.

Their wealth has increased several times over, so there's no need to continue gambling.

After all, quite a few guys with strong trump cards have emerged from their ranks. Who knows what else they might have in the second round?

Moreover, they knew very well that there couldn't possibly be only a few people in this place. The Immortal Realm was so vast that there were definitely more than just them who could pass the Trial of the Divine Treasure. There were other immortals who could pass this test, either because they were powerful or because they had powerful trump cards.

They need to assess their own capabilities to see if they can handle cultivators at the Golden Immortal level or higher.

Ye Liuyun also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sigh! This trial is no ordinary difficulty. It seems I'll have to reveal more of my trump cards in the next stage." Ye Liuyun sighed and then strolled forward along the corridor.

After everyone else walked forward, Donghuang followed Ye Liuyun at a leisurely pace.

A moment later, at the entrance of a magnificent, golden palace.

"Is this the second trial? I wonder what kind of trial it will be?" Ye Liuyun said somewhat nervously before walking in.

Once inside, it seemed to be a very spacious hall, and there were many passageways like theirs around the palace.

After they arrived, Shen Linghua did not immediately explain the rules. It seemed that she would have to wait until the other trial participants had completed their trials before explaining the requirements for the second trial.

After confirming that this was the place where they would wait for the second trial, everyone sat down cross-legged. After all, they had all consumed some of their strength in the previous battle. Also, they could use this waiting time to refine the treasures they had recently acquired, which would increase their chances of making it to the end.

The five Golden Immortals immediately took out the Golden Immortal-level magic treasures they had obtained and began refining them. The rules here did not stop them, which meant that they were allowed to do so. The other Heavenly Immortals followed suit. Only Ye Liuyun did not make any move, but walked to an inconspicuous corner and sat down. Donghuang did the same.

A few more minutes passed, and another group of fifty people came out from another passage. As soon as they came out, they must have looked at the fifty people who had come in first.

"Strange, why is there another Earth Immortal here?" Many people's eyes fell on Ye Liuyun.

There was no way around it; Ye Liuyun's appearance here was indeed very strange, and it was impossible for him not to attract attention.

However, instead of causing trouble here, they followed suit and found a good spot to begin refining the treasure, waiting for the second level to open.

As for Ye Liuyun, she realized that she was not far from breaking through to the Celestial Immortal Realm. She should be able to break through to the Celestial Immortal Realm after this trial ends.

However, she is currently observing the treasures and methods stored within her body. She still has many limited-grade pills in the lower realm that she has not yet used. Ye Liuyun does not know what kind of power these pills would have in the immortal realm, but she has decided that she will use all the usable ones later, otherwise they will all go moldy.

She hasn't even finished using up her Illusion God Pills yet.

As groups of trainees entered the area, Ye Liuyun's acquaintances soon appeared.

"Eh?" Although Ye Liuyun was supposedly deep in thought with his eyes closed, he was actually paying close attention to the trial participants who entered the area later.

When her fourth team of trial participants entered, one of the figures caught Ye Liuyun's attention.

He was a dashing young man dressed in white, with a sword at his waist, drinking as he walked.

"What? Isn't that Li Bai? It seems that all of us from the Immortal Realm of Longevity are going to gather in this Divine Treasure Trial." Ye Liuyun quickly sent a message to Li Bai using his snake-like telepathy.

"Great Sword Immortal Li, it's been a long time."

The sound startled Li Bai, who was drinking. He looked directly at Ye Liuyun's location, and upon seeing it, his eyes widened. The wine in his mouth suddenly lost its flavor.

He quickly looked around, then strolled over and sat down against the wall not far from Ye Liuyun.

Li Bai kept quiet, as did Ye Liuyun, because it was not advisable to reveal their identities in this place, especially since the gods were observing them.

"I never expected that you, little girl, would actually survive the cycle of reincarnation and even become an immortal. You're truly a chosen one, I admire you!" Li Bai replied happily.

"Hehe, that's right. Oh, by the way, Aoxue has come up too. It seems you've been living quite comfortably in the Immortal Realm all these years, haven't you? You're already a Celestial Immortal." Ye Liuyun exclaimed.

Li Bai chuckled.

"It's alright, it's alright. After arriving in the Immortal Realm, I was teleported to the inner perimeter of the Eastern Heaven Realm and joined an immortal sect that mainly cultivates swordsmanship. I do have some talent in swordsmanship, and this immortal sect values ​​me quite a bit. I've managed to get the status of a personal disciple. What's the situation on your end? You were able to reach this level with the cultivation of an Earth Immortal, so you must be doing pretty well, right?" Li Bai said with a smile.

Li Bai knew very well that whether it was the Trial of the Gods or the Trial of the Divine Treasury, it was very easy for Earth Immortals to pass, unless they had extremely strong trump cards.

The two old acquaintances chatted for a long time, and then another acquaintance appeared. He was a cultivator from the Immortal Realm of Longevity and a member of Ye Liuyun's Cloud Organization.

Chapter 974 Reunion in the Second Stage

Ye Liuyun watched the other person enter the main hall, her heart filled with joy. She felt that she might see many old friends from back then today.

So Ye Liuyun quickly sent a voice message to the other party, greeting them.

The members of the Cloud group were stunned for a moment, then their faces showed an expression of utter shock. They quickly looked towards Ye Liuyun's location, and were overjoyed to find that Li Bai was also there.

Of course, his reaction was similar to Li Bai's. He didn't make a big show of knowing Li Bai and Ye Liuyun. Instead, he retreated to a corner and sat down, adopting an attitude of keeping his distance from the crowd.

"Big sister, I never thought we'd meet again in the Immortal Realm. You really are a divine being. I knew you'd be able to get out of the Samsara Land."

"And the Supreme Elder, you're here too? I have a feeling I'll see a lot of familiar faces today," the young man from the clouds said with a smile.

So Ye Liuyun and the other two started talking together, roughly explaining their current situations, and then continued to wait for the others to arrive.

In the next group of people who were about to pass the level, Ye Liuyun recognized almost everyone in each group. Their reactions were all pretty much the same, and they all stood in the back corner. In this way, it was easy to tell how many familiar faces had made it to the second level.

However, the most important people are those closest to Ye Liuyun, such as Ye Fei, who was the first relative of Ye Liuyun to arrive here.

"Fei'er," Ye Liuyun quickly called out telepathically.

This sound struck Ye Fei as if she had been struck by lightning. She looked at Ye Liuyun's location with disbelief. When she saw that familiar smiling face, she was overjoyed. She was about to run towards Ye Liuyun, but Ye Liuyun quickly reminded her.

"Calm down. There are gods watching this place. It's not good to let others know about our relationship for the time being."

Ye Liuyun's words finally made Ye Fei realize that this place was indeed not where they would publicly recognize each other. Ye Fei glanced at the group of people at the back against the corner of the wall and found that they were all people from their time in the Immortal Realm of Longevity. She did not expect that so many familiar faces would be entering the Divine Treasure Trial.

Ye Fei greeted them one by one with telepathy, and finally sat down at the foot of the wall less than two meters away from Ye Liuyun. She closed her eyes and began to ponder, but in reality, she was communicating with Ye Liuyun using her divine sense.

The mother and daughter had been separated for so many years, so they must have a lot to say to each other. The others tactfully refrained from disturbing them and instead engaged in conversations with other people. However, they were currently discussing the next level the most, wondering what the rules would be.

There are already thirty-two members of the Immortal Realm. It's hard to imagine that so many members of the Immortal Realm have entered the Divine Treasure Space. This shows that they are doing quite well.

However, the most prominent figures haven't arrived yet. Everyone has been waiting for half an hour, and it's unclear how many more teams haven't arrived.

However, judging from the situation here, many of the trial participants from other forces have also met up with acquaintances. Unlike the people from the Immortal Realm, they did not hide their conversations but openly stood together and talked.

There's nothing we can do about it. These guys are obviously from the same faction, while Ye Liuyun and his group come from various different factions. If the God Clan, these dozens of people, were all ascendants from the same faction in the lower realm, the situation would probably be quite bad.

Nearly a thousand people have already arrived here, representing the 20 teams that have successfully completed the challenge, but clearly, there are definitely more than that number.

The number of people from the Immortal Realm of Longevity was still increasing. However, the later members of the Immortal Realm of Longevity arrived, the more familiar they became when they saw so many old acquaintances standing in the back row, including their Venerable One who had been sealed away back then. You can imagine what their expressions were like. They must have felt the same way they did when they were roaming the Eight Desolations with Ye Liuyun in the lower realm.

Unfortunately, they couldn't openly face each other here, so they could only communicate in a way that wouldn't attract attention, trying to stay in one place.

Each time someone arrived, Ye Liuyun reminded them not to make a fuss. He explained that if they pretended not to know each other, they could catch others off guard if they helped each other. Ye Liuyun's decision was a rational one, and no one had any reason to refuse.

"Damn it, how much longer do we have to wait? It's been over an hour, how many more teams are still waiting?" Many people were getting impatient.

However, more and more teams entered the venue after that. Almost every one or two minutes, a team would come in. Lin Aoxue, Ye Qingxue, and even Ye Feiwu and Li Muyun arrived one after another. In addition to them, there were also many cultivators belonging to the Immortal Realm of Longevity.

Although they didn't make a fuss, they mostly sat down around Ye Liuyun.

In this way, a total of 135 members of the Immortal Realm have gathered here, enough to form a team. If so many of them get together, they would probably be invincible against others.

"Mom, Mother, I'm so happy to finally see you again. No wonder my master said we would meet again in the Immortal Realm in the near future. And Mother, you were so mean back then. You actually lied to me. I'm so unhappy." Ye Qingxue complained to Lin Aoxue.

She was still holding a grudge about Ye Qingxue tricking her into entering the immortal realm back then.

"Huh? You mean I lied to you?" Ye Liuyun asked, puzzled.

Ye Qingxue immediately confided in Ye Liuyun.

"Mother clearly said she would come to the Immortal Realm with us, but who knew that in the end she would send us in and stay in the mortal realm herself? I almost cried my eyes out," Ye Qingxue said with a wronged expression.

"Alright, alright, it's all in the past. Stop complaining. Your grandmother and I are very pleased that you were able to break free from the seal and come to the Immortal Realm. By the way, have you found your parents yet?" Ye Feiwu asked.

She must be concerned about the whereabouts of her son and daughter-in-law.

"Grandpa, I've found Father and Mother. They're with me now. Actually, I knew where you two were a long time ago, but seeing that you were doing quite well, I didn't want to disturb you," Ye Liuyun said with a smile.

Ye Feiwu and Li Muyun were taken aback.

"Really? It seems you've come to the Immortal Realm with extraordinary abilities. And this time, I didn't expect so many people from our Immortal Realm to enter the Divine Treasure Realm. Liu Yun, you must have some thoughts on this, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have asked us not to recognize each other for the time being." Ye Feiwu said with a smile.

Ye Liuyun looked at the cultivators in front of him who were not at the Immortal Realm of Immortality and couldn't help but reveal a strange smile.

Meanwhile, the cultivators in front inexplicably felt a cold wind blowing from behind. Many of them couldn't help but turn around to look behind them. When they did, they saw that so many people had appeared behind them. These people didn't seem to be together, but they gave them a strange feeling, as if these people were staring at them with the eyes of prey.

"What's going on with that group of people behind us? They're standing or sitting in a row at the front, and I get the feeling their eyes are a bit malicious."

"Yes, I feel the same way. I always have this chilly feeling behind me, like someone is watching me."

With so many people from the Immortal Realm standing behind him, all united against a common enemy, it was indeed easy to create a sense of oppression for others. After all, there were over a hundred people; even a Golden Immortal couldn't withstand that.

The Ye family was still talking, and soon the conversation turned to Ye Qingxue.

"By the way, you're really something, girl. You've already reached the Golden Immortal level. You're probably the strongest person here," Ye Liuyun said.

Ye Qingxue chuckled.

"There's nothing I can do about it. I just happened to have such a powerful master. Mom, you probably don't know, but my master is the Celestial Venerable!" Ye Qingxue said proudly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun and his companions were greatly surprised.

"Celestial Venerable? No way? Which Celestial Venerable?" Ye Liuyun asked in shock.

Ye Qingxue had no intention of hiding anything.

"The Primordial Celestial Venerable, of course, is definitely not the Celestial Venerable herself, but rather an avatar of the Celestial Venerable. She calls herself the Primordial Fairy." Ye Qingxue told Ye Qingxue all the information about her master, without any intention of hiding anything.

Ye Liuyun and the others were shocked, but just then, Lin Aoxue also spoke up.

"Liu Yun, I almost forgot to tell you that my master is also a Celestial Venerable. After I came to the Immortal Realm, I was taken in by the Taiqing Immortal Palace and became an avatar of the Myriad Laws Celestial Venerable and a disciple of the Taiqing Daoist."

As for the others, they were more normal, not as outrageous as Lin Aoxue and Ye Qingxue.

"Tsk tsk, well, you two are lucky. I don't have such a powerful background as you. I can only work hard on my own," Ye Liuyun sighed.

Ye Qingxue chuckled.

"By the way, Mom, I met with my grandmaster. We're in the same place right now. She actually planned to come to the Eastern Heaven Realm to find you, but unfortunately she ran into me, so she can only take me around the Central Heaven Realm for the time being." Ye Qingxue told Ye Liuyun another piece of good news.

Ye Liuyun's face lit up with surprise and delight once again. Knowing that Lin Qingyou was safe, she had no more worries.

Soon, as everyone was talking, nearly 10,000 people gathered here. As all 10,000 people arrived, the voice of the goddess Ayaka rang out again.

"All those who passed the first round have arrived. Now, I will explain the second round."

As soon as the sound rang out, everyone became focused.

"Damn it, it's finally starting! I've been waiting for an hour, it's wearing down my patience," someone grumbled.

As Shen Linghua spoke, the surrounding passages began to close, as if everyone was trapped in an independent space.

This scene made everyone uneasy, because if this was the territory of the gods, and if the gods were to do something, then they would be trapped like turtles in a jar or fish in a net.

"Everyone, let's begin explaining the rules of the second level. Please look around." As Shen Linghua reminded them, portals leading to unknown destinations appeared again on all four sides.

Moreover, there were many doors, a total of one hundred. Seeing these doors, Ye Liuyun roughly guessed what the upcoming trial would be like.

Chapter 975 Teaming Up to Seize Treasure

Ayaka Shin continued explaining the rules of the second stage.

"Fellow trial participants, the rules for this second trial are that you will randomly choose one of these one hundred portals to enter. Each portal contains a wealth of treasures, and you can find everything you desire. The rewards are a level higher than those for the first trial, with the lowest-grade treasures being mid-grade Celestial Immortals and the highest-grade being top-grade Golden Immortals."

"If you are eliminated in this level, the penalty will be slightly weaker than the previous level. You will only keep the treasures you obtained in the Divine Treasure Space. So if you don't feel confident in continuing, you can choose to quit. If you quit voluntarily, you can keep the treasures you obtained in the first level," Shen Linghua said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but reveal a confident smile. The people from the Immortal Realm also showed strange expressions, because this challenge seemed to be tailor-made for them.

As long as they band together and enter one passage, who can compete with them?

Even if they want to quit, they can always wait until the next level to see the rules before quitting.
