Three days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Soon, the annual Grand Tournament of the Nine Heavens Holy Land will begin.
The venue for this event is set in the Purple Cloud Secret Realm of the Nine Heavens Sacred Land.
This secret realm is a small world created by the founder of the Nine Heavens Holy Land, the Cloud Immortal.
It contains many powerful wild beasts, and even some wild slaves refined by demon cultivators.
Along with these powerful creatures, there were also various spiritual plants, secret medicines, divine weapons, treasures, and cultivation techniques plundered by the Cloud Immortal.
In the past, they were all personally taught disciples, or they entered as inner or outer disciples by spending a certain amount of contribution points.
Use it to hone your skills.
Acquire your desired treasures to increase your strength.
As an exclusive secret realm for cultivating disciples within the Nine Heavens Holy Land, its safety is naturally not a concern.
When the Immortal Yunxiao created the Zixiao Secret Realm, he left behind the method to control this small world within the gate.
Controlled by an ancestor from the Nine Heavens Holy Land who had reached the Remnant Immortal Realm, everything was within a controllable range.
Therefore, this year, the Nine Heavens Holy Land has changed to a new red color scheme for this Grand Clan Competition.
This is not the kind of tournament we've seen before.
Half a month ago, Yun Tianming had asked the sect's Supreme Elder to make arrangements within the Purple Cloud Secret Realm.
The vast Purple Cloud Secret Realm was divided into small trial spaces using a divine-level formation.
These spaces contain special tokens.
Besides the tokens, there are also various powerful puppet creatures.
It requires not only combat skills but also strategic thinking.
Only those who pass the test can obtain this token.
Whoever obtains the most tokens in these trial spaces will advance to the next round of the semifinals.
Conversely, if the token is taken by the puppets in these trial spaces, or if the puppets kill the user, the user will be eliminated.
Of course, the kills are not real deaths, but merely illusions.
Within the Purple Cloud Secret Realm, there are no rules.
Or rather...
No rules are the rules.
That is the law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, and one must use any means necessary to achieve ultimate advancement.
They obtained a new style of competition for the general ancestral temple.
A strange look appeared on Gu Xuan's face.
Isn't this an escape room?!
If he hadn't been certain that Yun Tianming wasn't a time traveler, he would have suspected that Yun Tianming had traveled from the past.
However, this kind of grand competition is much more interesting than the traditional ring competition where you fight me and I fight you.
He had confidence in his apprentice.
He had already glanced at the strength of the other branch disciples; the strongest among them was only at the Saint Realm.
Compared to his three disciples, he was incredibly weak.
With her Quasi-Emperor level cultivation, Liu Ruyan alone could suppress the entire scene.
Although Fang Li and Jiang Qingqing are at the Great Sage and Quasi-Supreme realms, they can fight beyond their level and would have no problem facing Quasi-Emperors.
Another threat is that the disciples of the main sect are quite skilled.
The minimum cultivation level is the Great Sage Realm, and the maximum is the peak of the Quasi-Emperor Realm.
After all, they are disciples from the Central Region Holy Land. This region gathers the most essential spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the Tianxuan Realm and is the place where the Heavenly Dao manifests, representing the entire Tianxuan Realm.
But it's not a big problem.
......
At this moment, outside the Purple Cloud Secret Realm.
A platform was set up, where all the top forces from the Central Holy Land gathered.
On the main stage.
Seated there is the leader of the strongest immortal holy land in the Central Region, namely the Six Saints, One Sect, Two Palaces, Four Divine Dynasties, Four Ancient Clans, Two Associations, and One Pavilion.
It is rare to see these giants, who are the most powerful figures in the Tianxuan Continent.
They appeared in one place, so neatly arranged.
Perhaps, the time has come.
Suddenly, three ancient bell tolls, melodious and imbued with Taoist charm, echoed across the sacred land of the Nine Heavens!
Clang! Clang! Clang—
A bronze bell, carved with birds and beasts, the sun, moon and stars, and resembling a mountain, was projected onto the sky.
It was none other than the Eastern Emperor Bell!
In fact.
Whether it's the Yunxiao Sect's most prized artifact or the Eastern Emperor Bells of other branch sects.
They are all replicas of the Donghuang Bell, made to a 1:1 scale.
The real Donghuang Bell.
It is the most treasured artifact of the Nine Heavens Holy Land, and its grade is half-step holy artifact!
Perhaps this Donghuang Bell is not the real Donghuang Bell.
In the past, the Tianxuan Realm was solely based on the core of the Xuanhuang Universe, the ancestral land of countless worlds—the Xuanhuang Great World.
There are countless supreme treasures above the Dao level.
Although it has declined, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse.
In any case, every time Gu Xuan saw the Eastern Emperor Bell, he felt that it was somewhat unreal and not the real Eastern Emperor Bell.
This thing is one of the ten ancient divine artifacts.
The true treasure of the Great Way.
Legend has it that it is the gate to the heavens. According to the ancient murals left in the Tianshan Grottoes from the era of the gods, it is the most powerful of the ten divine artifacts, capable of destroying the heavens and the earth and devouring all the heavens.
In ancient times, the Yellow Emperor created the realm of mountains and seas, and the Immortal in the Pot created the realm of clouds and the world of heavenly books.
All of them rely on the power of the Eastern Emperor Bell.
The aura emanating from the Eastern Emperor Bell was not as powerful as the Immortal Execution Sword in his hand.
And the appearance of the Eastern Emperor Bell.
This involuntarily stirred up some distant memories in Lu Ya's eyes.
It was as if it had been forgotten for a long time.
However, the moment the Eastern Emperor Bell appeared, it began to reappear...
Gu Xuan also understood this point. As the Crown Prince of the Demon Court, Lu Ya possessed the Eastern Emperor Bell, which was a magical artifact of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
He glanced at Lu Ya and asked slowly, "Have you thought of anything?"
"Yes, this Eastern Emperor Bell is not the same as that Eastern Emperor Bell."
Lu Ya came to his senses and said in a deep voice, "This is a fragment that has been reforged with some materials to create a pseudo-Eastern Emperor Bell."
"Oh, have you ever seen the real you?"
Gu Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, as if confirming his suspicion once again.
