Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

In fact, what the Jade Emperor was really thinking about at this moment was whether or not to temporarily suspend their divine race's plan, because too many changes had occurred in this divine treasure trial, and he was a little worried that he might lose more than he gained by trying to do something small.

Meanwhile, in a place within the divine realm shielded by the dense power of the Heavenly Dao, there lies a golden divine egg. From all directions, a vast amount of merit and karmic energy is flowing into this divine egg, and it seems that a life is being conceived within it.

This place seems to be isolated by the power of the Great Heavenly Dao. In that case, even a Heavenly Venerable cannot see it, because the power of the Great Heavenly Dao comes from Pangu Heavenly Venerable, and the power of a Heavenly Venerable cannot see the power of another Heavenly Venerable.

It's strange, though. Where did they get so much karmic power? You know, good deeds are easy to come by, but karmic power is hard to come by. After all, karmic power can only be accumulated by doing bad things, and the Heavenly Court in the Celestial Realm has never been lenient with immortals who bear karmic power.

Ye Liuyun had already endured the lightning strikes and arrived at the area where the treasures were floating. She looked at one of the treasures, raised her hand with difficulty, and took it away.

The moment the treasure was acquired, a powerful force sent Ye Liuyun flying.

"Mom!" Ye Qingxue quickly summoned the Chaos Spirit Pearl to catch Ye Liuyun. Ye Liuyun's body was covered in electricity, and they dared not directly take the hit. If the electricity affected them, they would be in trouble.

After Ye Liuyun was quickly frozen in place, he couldn't help but exhale a mouthful of black smoke.

"Hehe, I got one." Ye Liuyun waved a bowl-shaped magic weapon in his hand.

The others, seeing Ye Liuyun's expression, didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

As for the others, they were all envious when they saw that Ye Liuyun had obtained a top-grade Golden Immortal level magic weapon.

Chapter 977, the final challenge

This is a top-grade magic weapon of the Golden Immortal level; who among those present wouldn't be envious?

Just as they were about to make a move against Ye Liuyun, a series of kind eyes suddenly turned to them.

Ye Qingxue and the others were looking at them with hostility, as if they would eliminate these guys immediately if they made the slightest move.

Don't doubt Ye Qingxue and her group's abilities. They are invincible in this Divine Treasure Trial when they stick together.

"You'd better not get any funny ideas. We'll take what's here. You'd better go somewhere else," Ye Qingxue said with a dangerous look.

The people's expressions changed, but after thinking for a while, they still decided to leave. Although the treasures here were good, with such a group of people here, no one else could get them. Even if they could take them out, they probably wouldn't be able to leave this hall.

"Sigh! Let's go, these things are not meant for us." The people sighed and then left one after another.

After Ye Liuyun used his immortal power to clean the black ash off his body, he finally spoke.

"The current intensity here is probably at the level of a Golden Immortal. It's hard to say exactly how strong it is. Qingxue, you have a treasure to protect you, so why don't you go in and try it? But it seems you can only take one item, and then you'll be bounced out," Ye Liuyun suggested.

Ye Qingxue smiled and nodded, then summoned the Chaos Spirit Pearl and flew directly into the electric array. All the electric currents were blocked by her treasure and could not harm her in the slightest.

Soon, she also obtained a top-grade Golden Immortal level magic weapon, but she only glanced at it before asking the people behind her.

"Gentlemen, who wants this thing? I'm not interested in it."

With a primordial spiritual treasure like the Chaos Spirit Pearl in hand, Ye Qingxue indeed looked down on treasures of this level.

Soon, Ye Qingxue gave this treasure to someone who was suitable for it.

Next, Ye Qingxue used the Chaos Spirit Pearl to escort the others into the formation one by one, and they took out all the treasures inside.

With Ye Liuyun around, his family certainly wouldn't lack any treasures, so they basically gave all of these things away.

The gods all had dark faces as they watched this scene. They felt like their race was being treated like fools, giving away treasures to others.

"For the third test, we must change the rules and separate these people. If we continue to let them stay together, they might ruin the trials that our divine race uses to select talent," a divine immortal king said in a deep voice.

Time passed slowly, and soon, only two thousand people remained out of the five thousand. With half of the immortals eliminated, the voice of God Ayaka rang out again.

"Congratulations to the surviving trial participants. You have successfully entered the third stage. The rules of the third stage are similar to the previous ones, but the difficulty will increase again. If you do not feel confident in entering the third stage, you may consider stopping here and withdrawing."

Upon hearing this, the people who had just gathered in the Immortal Realm of Immortality felt a pang of melancholy, as at least most of them would have to stop here.

"Alas! Elder sister, and everyone else, it seems we must stop here." Some of the weaker individuals turned their gazes toward Ye Liuyun.

"Well, I've already told you where I am. Like I said before, if you have a good place to settle down, cultivate diligently and wait for the day I summon you. At that time, the Immortal Realm of Longevity will reappear in the Immortal Realm, and you will be welcome to join us then," Ye Liuyun said with a smile.

The cultivators from the Immortal Realm who were preparing to leave all clasped their hands in a respectful gesture towards Ye Liuyun.

"That day is definitely not far away. We believe in our eldest sister. Goodbye."

As soon as he said this, familiar faces began to disappear from Ye Liuyun's sight. In no time, the number of people had dwindled from over a hundred to just over twenty.

Among these twenty-odd people, even the weakest is a high-grade celestial immortal, such as Yin Tong.

"Liu Yun, we're about to leave too. You need to urge your father and mother to cultivate diligently. Their aptitude is average, and they can't become lazy just because they've seen you," Ye Feiwu said seriously.

Ye Liuyun chuckled.

"Don't worry, I will definitely keep an eye on them. By the way, Grandpa and Grandma, take these two things. I think you'll definitely need them." Ye Liuyun secretly slipped a storage magic item to the two of them.

The couple glanced at it briefly, and their eyes clearly showed shock, but they didn't press further about where Ye Liuyun got these things, because there was no need to.

“You child, you are still so powerful even after coming to the Immortal Realm. Your grandmother and I will take you in. We will wait for the day when you become famous throughout the Immortal Realm.”

The two smiled at Ye Liuyun and the others, and then disappeared.

Alright, now those who remain are the ones who will continue to persevere.

Meanwhile, the gods were speechless as they watched Ye Liuyun's group run away after taking their benefits in the second round. In that case, all their efforts to modify the rules of the third round for them would have been in vain.

"These people probably planned this all along. They left as soon as the second trial ended. It's our divine race that got tricked by these ants," a divine immortal lord said with a gloomy face.

Soon, Ayaka began to describe the third trial, which was an individual trial and basically made teamwork impossible.

That is, the gods will send out corresponding gods to stop you based on each person's situation. Only by defeating the gods can you enter the fourth level.

This trial was actually a free trial for Ye Liuyun and the others, because the rest of them all possessed powerful treasures or extremely strong abilities, while the God Clan, with their high self-esteem, did not send any cultivators stronger than them, but rather cultivators of similar cultivation levels.

After Ye Qingxue teleported over, she immediately summoned the Chaos Spirit Pearl. Under the pressure of the innate spiritual treasure, the Golden Immortal-level god of the same realm was powerless to resist.

On the other side, Lin Aoxue and Ye Qingxue also displayed their power, overwhelming the God Clan at the same realm. As for Ye Liuyun's side, they sent a Celestial Immortal from the God Clan. There was no other way; the God Clan did not have any Earth Immortals. Although the God Clan was strong, they were still helpless against Ye Liuyun, who had such a powerful cheat.

As for the other members of the Immortal Realm, they have all advanced, and they all possess Golden Immortal-level magic treasures, which is unavoidable.

In just half an hour, all the immortals who had advanced were teleported to the outside of a magnificent and resplendent palace. In the end, only a thousand people made it there.

This is the final stage of the God Clan's trial. In the previous stage, every immortal who passed the God Clan's trial received a magic weapon of the Immortal Lord level. The God Clan was quite generous.

Of the remaining thousand people, the vast majority were Golden Immortals, with only a few Celestial Immortals among Ye Liuyun and his group of about twenty.

“My Lord, it seems this is the final hurdle. Didn’t the God Clan say there would be a final trial with innate spiritual treasures and creation treasures? Do you think anyone will obtain creation treasures?” Shi Youlan stood beside Ye Liuyun and chuckled.

Ye Liuyun glanced at Shi Youlan, then answered.

"If there really is a treasure from the beginning of creation, then it must be mine. But do you really think the gods are that generous? Also, I don't know why, but I always feel that the gods are plotting something. Do you really think they are so kind as to set up this trial specifically to give treasures to the immortals of the immortal realm?"

Shi Youlan smiled and shook her head.

"Hehe, who knows? Anyway, it certainly won't be that simple. But we've come this far, so whatever the danger, we can only deal with it as it comes."

As the last immortal was teleported over, a figure appeared out of thin air at the entrance of this magnificent palace. It was a very beautiful goddess, none other than the goddess Linghua who was in charge of the trial.

Shen Linghua walked gracefully to the edge of the platform, glanced at the group that had reached the fourth trial, and focused her gaze on Ye Liuyun and his group.

In the third round, everyone had basically revealed their abilities. Ye Liuyun and her group all demonstrated extremely strong combat power, especially Ye Liuyun, who was the only one to defeat a stronger opponent, and she did so in a way that the others did not know.

The fourth challenge is also the one that the Protoss leadership cares about the most.

"Your Majesty, it seems there are too many unknown figures participating in this trial. Should we continue with our previous plans? If we do, I'm afraid it might cause problems," a Celestial King said to the Jade Emperor.

The Jade Emperor was also conflicted. Although he had expected that some special missions would come to participate, he did not expect so many people to come.

After a moment's hesitation, the Jade Emperor gave a reply.

"Let's pause. We can't take this risk; we can't afford to lose more than we gain."

The Protoss leaders all nodded; at this point, their plans should indeed not continue.

"Welcome, everyone, to the final trial. Behind me lies the place where the divine race stores its most precious treasures. Even the worst treasures here are at the Immortal Lord level, and you can find everything you desire. However, before we begin, I must ask you on behalf of the divine race: which young talents are willing to join our divine race? If so, step forward, and you will not need to undergo the fourth trial; you can directly receive the generous treatment of the divine race," said Shen Linghua with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun immediately became sarcastic.

"Who would want to go to your gods' realm? Wouldn't it be better to take the treasure and live a carefree life?"

However, Ye Liuyun's words were immediately proven wrong, because one after another Golden Immortals walked out.

"I am willing to join the Protoss."

"I'm willing too."

"I am willing."

A series of sounds rang out, and this scene immediately astonished Ye Liuyun.

"Damn, these guys are so spineless! Are they all going to run off to the God Clan and become their slaves?" Ye Liuyun complained.

Lin Aoxue, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh.

"Do you think it's you? Joining the God Clan means unlimited prospects for many immortals in the Immortal Realm. No other power can compare to the treatment offered by the God Clan. These people can at least achieve the position of Immortal Lord if they go to the God Clan, while it is very difficult to have such an opportunity in other powers," Lin Aoxue explained.

Chapter 978 The Gods' Worries

Indeed, Ye Liuyun was being a bit prejudiced. There were countless immortals in the immortal realm who wanted to join the divine race, especially those who had reached the level of Heavenly Immortal or Golden Immortal.

Ye Liuyun had a bad impression of the gods, so he subjectively believed that not many immortals would serve as servants to the gods. But in reality, unless one creates their own power and recruits cultivators, in most immortal sects, there is not much difference between them and servants. They just have a nicer title: disciples.

Soon, fewer than 200 people chose not to join the gods, but instead entered the temple before them to seek greater opportunities.

"Wow, there are only so few people left." Ye Liuyun was a little incredulous.

But in fact, anyone with a deep understanding of the gods would not find the situation strange. For example, Lin Aoxue and the others thought it was perfectly normal, since they were in the Central Heaven Realm, which was the main base of the gods.

Shen Linghua glanced at the remaining immortals, then his gaze involuntarily turned to Ye Liuyun and the others. Ye Liuyun and the others were the weakest of this group, yet the weakest of them did not choose to join the God Clan but instead chose to continue their journey.

"Strange, these people are not even Golden Immortals, and there is even an Earth Immortal. How can they only make it to the fourth level? Also, they did not choose to join the God Clan, but instead wanted to enter this temple. Do they think they have a chance to obtain the treasures in this temple?" Shen Linghua was deeply suspicious of this.

Looking at the Jade Emperor's side, he quickly glanced at the immortal lord on the registration list. At this moment, the immortal lord's expression was extremely unpleasant, because most of the immortals on the list that their divine race had their eye on had not joined the divine race.

To put it bluntly, the people they wanted didn't join, but all the people they didn't want came in.

"How is it?" the Jade Emperor asked in a low voice.

The immortal lord was extremely embarrassed; he could only hand the register in his hand to the Jade Emperor.

"Your Majesty, you...you should take a look for yourself," the immortal lord said awkwardly.

The Jade Emperor waved his hand, and the register floated in front of him and began to flip through it automatically. But immediately, the Jade Emperor was so angry that he threw the register to the ground.

This alone shows how much of a failure they were in this trial of the divine treasure.

Actually, the main reason was that too many participants with unknown identities and backgrounds came. There were so many that the Jade Emperor had to change his mind. If so many people hadn't come in, the immortals who participated in the Divine Treasure Trial would probably have been in trouble.

"Outrageous! Humph! I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. Junior sister, keep an eye on things and make sure no one takes those things from the temple." The Jade Emperor stood up to leave, probably no longer in the mood to watch.

The Goddess of Yaochi was taken aback, and then quickly asked a question.

"Senior brother, what if something unexpected happens? Should we intervene?"

The Jade Emperor paused for a moment, then spoke with a cold and stern expression.

"If these people don't know what's good for them, then teach them a lesson, but don't take their lives."

After speaking, the Jade Emperor disappeared. As soon as the Jade Emperor disappeared, the four Heavenly Kings also disappeared at the same time, leaving behind only a group of solemn-looking divine warriors.

The Goddess of Yaochi couldn't help but sigh, then turned her gaze back to the Divine Treasury Trial, while the Jade Emperor and the Four Heavenly Kings went to another separate palace.

"Your Majesty, too many unexpected events have occurred during this Divine Treasure Trial, and too many people who shouldn't have appeared have appeared. Do you think this might be due to interference from above, or that the things our divine race has been doing in secret have already been discovered by the higher-ups?" King Li Huo said with a look of apprehension.

“Those people up there know everything. They might have something to hide. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many strange people in the Divine Treasure Trial. This seems to be a warning to us,” said the Purple Extreme Heavenly King.

The Jade Emperor looked worried. After all, the Heavenly Venerable had warned them beforehand, and in order to deal with these changes, they had prepared this Divine Treasure Trial in advance. While improving the future combat power of the God Clan, they also planned to do some small things in secret.

This subtle maneuver takes place in the fourth level. Once they reach the fourth level, it's as if they've entered a trap set by the gods, and their fate will be difficult to control.

However, the fact that so many people of unknown origin suddenly entered the fourth level, and that almost all of them chose to continue to the fourth level, indicates that they clearly came with a purpose, rather than to join the gods.

Someone came out to cause trouble, do you think he wouldn't be angry?

"I have a feeling that this matter is not so simple. If these people are really connected with the higher-ups, why are they not joining the God Clan or withdrawing from the trial? Could it be that they have designs on the treasures of my God Clan?" The Heavenly King of the Rift Kingdom suddenly said something that made everyone immediately alert.

They conducted trials, but never considered giving away the real treasures selflessly. These things were originally just lures used by their gods.

"This? If that's really the case, then we might be about to have our first real showdown with those above," Xuanming Heavenly King said in a deep voice.

Let's take another look at the Trial of the Divine Treasury.

"It seems that you trial participants still wish to explore the fourth level. However, I must remind you that this is the true treasure trove of our divine race. There are indeed some extremely precious treasures inside, but seizing them carries a great risk to your lives. If you are not destined to obtain the treasures but still want to take them, you are likely to suffer a backlash from them." Shen Linghua warned Ye Liuyun and the others.

Ye Liuyun immediately glanced at the people standing in the other areas. They were all quite calm and expressionless, as if they didn't take what Shen Linghua had said seriously at all.

"They're all a bunch of weirdos, and this guy's still here too." Ye Liuyun looked around and soon spotted Donghuang.
