At the edge of the solar system, near Pluto, the blue landscape of solid nitrogen on the planet is clearly visible, with countless spaceships on display.
They were seeing him off.
This is the battleground for Earth's civilization. All beings preparing to travel to the center of the universe to participate in the battle for the Holy City must shatter the void here to prevent it from affecting inhabited planets.
One only needs the strength of a human immortal to shatter the void and reach the center of the universe.
Of course, human immortals, earth immortals, and most celestial immortals do not aim to become saints.
They have no hope.
This trip was solely for training or observation.
Players from all over the universe will participate, and even the surviving non-player Heavenly Rank members will go all out, such as the elders of the Divine Will Great Wall, most of whom have already left.
Such a grand event is unprecedented in history. Anyone who has the ability to participate and witness it should not let it pass them by.
"Are you really going? That's a battle between celestial beings; you're just a human immortal!" a wife pleaded with her husband to stay.
"Don't worry, I won't participate in any battles. I'll just observe. I'll come back if things don't look good."
The immortal released his full power, his aura so immense that Pluto, with a mass only 0.2% of Earth's, immediately trembled.
"The greatest event in the world, I have arrived!"
The First-Class Tribulation unleashed its full power, reaching a certain limit in its ability to destroy stars, thus communicating with the rules of the unseen realm.
boom!
A huge rift tore open in the void, as if the universe were being split apart.
Even galaxies are as insignificant as dust compared to this rift.
Any living being standing before this crevice would be filled with fear, its legs trembling as if facing an abyss.
There was complete silence near Pluto.
"Don't go!" The wife's fear reached its peak, and she cried out.
The sound traveled far and wide in the vast, silent universe through special equipment.
Even the immortal was afraid, but he resolutely rushed into the crevice.
The boundless, raging life force of the immortals vanished as quickly as a pebble falling into the sea.
The scene before me was unsettling; it didn't feel like entering a holy city.
"Could it be that the center of the universe is a place of utter destruction, and entering it is like stepping into an abyss?" someone asked in fear.
"So what if it's the abyss? Watching the battles between peerless experts is the best form of cultivation!"
Several human immortals and earth immortals arrived together, once again piercing through the void, and resolutely entered the great rift.
The great rift, like the eyes of gods and demons, coldly and mercilessly gazes upon all living beings and overlooks the universe.
"I don't aspire to become a saint. Compared to those top players and those who have reached the highest level, I am far inferior. But I cannot be afraid, because if I am afraid, I will truly be unable to become a saint."
"I am not as good as them now and cannot seize the holy throne, but why should the holy throne be bestowed by heaven and earth! Sooner or later, I will create the holy throne that belongs to me!"
"The Wind of the World says that the Holy City is the final level of the value game, and only twelve people can pass it. The eighth Holy City has a sainthood, but what does the ninth Holy City have? Can anyone break into it?"
One after another, immortals, earth immortals, and celestial immortals entered, each with their own reasons.
The great rift is terrifying, but it is no match for immortals.
Having experienced the human catastrophe, their minds are already different.
But only a human immortal can restrain their fear in front of the Great Rift; any mortal would lose faith in front of it.
"I hate it so much! In other civilizations, I would definitely have become a spirit seed, able to shatter the void, travel to the center of the universe, and witness this greatest event in the universe. But on Earth, who can survive the tribulation of the second-class citizens!"
On the spaceship, players who were only able to survive the second or third class tribulations due to their low "origin" and weak "abilities" expressed their regret.
"I'm just one chance away. I've been waiting for this for six years. Last time, I even had other civilizations' spirits as my opponents. As long as the Game of Value ends and the Human Tribulation disappears, I will be able to emerge from the dust and shine brightly, illuminating countless green mountains!"
There is another possibility, which they dare not say—Li Changzhou died, and his Dao disappeared.
In this situation, the value game in the Earth region will select a new player as the Human Tribulation, but whoever it is, they will be weaker than Li Changzhou.
As long as it's not Li Changzhou, any second- or third-class player who has lived for more than six years will have a chance to survive the Human Tribulation!
"Look! Indra and the goddess Venus are here! They're also heading to the center of the universe to participate in the battle for the Holy City!"
"These two are players who are participating in the Starry Sky Road for the first time. They might have a chance to compete for the Sainthood!"
"Impossible. I estimate they can only take the fourth or fifth city at most."
"That's right, those who are truly qualified to compete for the Sainthood are the top ten of the ten Starry Sky Roads, those one hundred people!"
"Bullshit! You mean even His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor isn't qualified to take a saintly position?"
"Your Majesty is naturally a different matter, but how can Indra and Venus be compared to..."
The man didn't dare to continue speaking.
Those who have merged with the will of Heaven are, in a sense, one with the will of the universe, and they will feel something when their names are mentioned.
In some civilizations where the law of the jungle is out in the open, beings below the Heavenly Rank will be annihilated the moment they mention the name of the Heavenly Rank.
On Earth, there is relative equality, and everyone can discuss things, but no one dares to belittle the Heavenly Position.
This is an invisible pressure. In order to survive, genes cause the instinct of life to fear and prevent people from speaking, just as most people have some degree of fear of heights.
When one tries to diminish one's status, the fear is like having one's foot stuck in the rails while a train traveling at 300 kilometers per hour speeds towards them.
This sense of oppression is not due to status or power, but a genuine fear stemming from the primal instincts of life.
As for the sages above the heavenly throne, to this day, no living being has ever harbored any disrespect for them, nor would they ever wish to.
