A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 513

Chapter 513: Shocking the Wuji Divine Artifact Sect

“Kid, it’s not easy to be accepted into our Wuji Divine Artifact Sect. At the very least, you have to pass the sect’s five levels of trials before you can join,” Elder Yu said to Wu Zhen’e, his expression extremely serious.

Wu Zhen’e nodded.

“Of course I know that. Senior, please proceed,” he replied.

“Alright, then we’ll start with the first level of the trial. As everyone knows, to become an Artifact Forger, the most important thing is to master a flame that belongs to you. Before you is our Wuji Divine Artifact Sect’s Divine Fire Mountain, which contains endless flames from the countless heavens and worlds. You only need to enter the mountain and unleash your innate talent. Once you can claim a flame at the Immortal Fire level or higher as your own, you will pass.”

The requirement for this first level wasn’t particularly harsh. Flames are like living beings; powerful flames possess self-awareness, and there are specific methods to help them evolve. Flames are divided into three major grades: Spirit, Immortal, and Divine. The strongest Divine Flames are feared even by God Venerables.

So Elder Yu’s demand of Wu Zhen’e was not too high—at the very least, he needed to tame an Immortal Fire.

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhen’e nodded, his curiosity growing about what kind of flame he might be able to tame. Although he had already begun forging artifacts in the Wanqi Sect, Wu Zhen’e had always used the innate Immortal Fire he condensed within himself, which naturally wasn’t as powerful as the innate flames.

As for why he hadn’t sought out an innate flame within the Xuanyuan Realm, it was because he hadn’t found a suitable one there yet.

Now, this was an opportunity to find the right innate flame.

Thinking this, Wu Zhen’e took a deep breath, gathered his energy and focused his mind, and in the next moment, his entire aura burst forth powerfully.

Outside, Elder Yu watched this scene, stroking his long whiskers with a touch of curiosity about what level of flame Wu Zhen’e would attract.

“You’re the one the Holy Maiden let in, so I’m really curious—what kind of astonishing talent will burst forth from you?”

In truth, Elder Yu did not doubt that Wu Zhen’e could be accepted into the sect. After all, in his eyes, the Holy Maiden’s subordinates must have discovered an extraordinary talent in Wu Zhen’e to make such an exception for him.

However, Elder Yu was puzzled about exactly what Wu Zhen’e’s talent was and why he himself had failed to notice it.

Just as Elder Yu was lost in thought, he sensed something and looked down at the ground with some confusion.

“That’s strange. What’s going on? Why is the ground shaking?”But soon, Elder Yu realized what was happening and looked toward Wu Zhen’e inside Divine Fire Mountain, his expression involuntarily turning to shock.

Although Divine Fire Mountain was called a mountain, in reality, it was a Great World, only named for its shape resembling a mountain peak.

Wu Zhen’e was seated cross-legged at the center of Divine Fire Mountain. As he released his own aura, the next moment countless flames surged forth from all directions of the mountain, creating a fiery tsunami that was visually stunning from afar.

However, it was Elder Yu outside who was truly stunned; he watched the scene with utter astonishment.

“What? All the Spiritual Fires and Immortal Fires are appearing?”

“Wait, even the Divine Fires are coming out? Damn, is that a Seventh Grade Divine Fire?”

“No, it’s an Eighth Grade Divine Fire!”

Meanwhile, inside the Wuji Divine Artifact Sect, a group of its powerful members had gathered, their expressions growing serious.

Soon, Luo Wanyan, the Sect Master of the Wuji Divine Artifact Sect, who sat in the Sect Master’s Seat, spoke up.

“Everyone, the Divine Dao Ore Domain is about to open. Do you have any suggestions?””Sect Master, what other suggestions could there be? Just let the Holy Maiden lead the True God Realm disciples of the sect to go,” an Elder at the Divine Emperor Peak stage stood up and said without hesitation.

Bai Ningyu, standing beside him, also rose and said, “That’s right, Holy Lord, allow me to lead the disciples into the Divine Dao Ore Domain.”

Just as Luo Wanyan was about to nod in agreement, he suddenly sensed something and his expression changed drastically.

“This is bad!”

With those words, Luo Wanyan’s figure immediately vanished. The other Elders hadn’t yet reacted to what was happening, but the next moment their expressions also shifted, and they disappeared from the Sect Hall as well.

Very soon, Bai Ningyu was left alone inside the Sect Hall, confused about what had happened, but she had no choice but to hurriedly follow after them.

Before long, Luo Wanyan arrived at Divine Fire Mountain. Seeing what was happening inside, his face grew extremely grim.

At this moment, Elder Yu also noticed the Sect Master’s arrival and quickly spoke up.”Sect Master.”

“What’s going on? Why is there still someone able to enter Divine Fire Mountain even though this round of disciple recruitment has ended?”

Luo Wanyan asked Elder Yu with a calm expression.

Elder Yu hurriedly explained, “Sect Master, this young man came a long way but missed the recruitment altogether. I originally planned to refuse him, but the Holy Maiden spoke on his behalf, so I agreed. I never expected something like this to happen.”

Upon hearing this, Luo Wanyan sighed and said,

“I don’t know yet if this is good or bad. Let’s just observe for now—I’ve never seen anything like this happen at Divine Fire Mountain.”

In Luo Wanyan’s memory, the biggest incident at Divine Fire Mountain had always been the emergence of an Eighth Grade Divine Fire and its choosing of a master.

In the history of the Wuji Divine Artifact Sect, such incidents have only happened twice. The first time was with Him, who then became the Sect Master of the Wuji Divine Artifact Sect. The second time was with the Holy Maiden Bai Ningyu, who obtained the Eighth Grade Divine Fire, Dao Han Netherflame.

It was precisely because of this that Bai Ningyu became the Holy Maiden of the Wuji Divine Artifact Sect.

But then Luo Wanyan thought of something else, and his gaze toward Wu Zhen’e within Divine Fire Mountain grew even more serious.

“This one’s power surpasses that of an Eighth Grade Divine Fire—could it be the legendary Ninth Grade Divine Fire?”

“But in the history of the Wuji Divine Artifact Sect, only the Founding Patriarch, Wu Ji Divine Emperor, ever possessed a Ninth Grade Divine Fire. Am I really about to witness someone else chosen by a Ninth Grade Divine Fire?”

Divine Fire Mountain is a Great World created by the Founding Patriarch Wu Ji Divine Emperor by gathering countless flames from within the Divine Realm, specially designed for disciple recruitment by the Wuji Divine Artifact Sect.

Due to the unique environment inside Divine Fire Mountain, spiritual fires and Immortal Fires are born continuously, so there’s no worry about the flames inside ever being exhausted.

Many years ago, after the Founding Patriarch Wu Ji Divine Emperor unexpectedly passed away, he left behind his Ninth Grade Divine Fire—the Myriad Netherflames—within Divine Fire Mountain.

However, in all these years, no one has earned the recognition of the Myriad Netherflames. After all, the owner of the Myriad Netherflames is the Divine Emperor Wu Ji Divine Emperor himself, who is naturally proud and lofty; ordinary people are unworthy in his eyes.

From the looks of it now, the only thing that could cause such a commotion would be the recognition of a master by the Myriad Netherflames. But at that moment, Luo Wanyan hesitated as a thought crossed his mind.

If Wu Zhen’e were to gain the recognition of the Myriad Netherflames, then what kind of status would he hold inside the sect?

After all, that is the Founding Patriarch’s divine fire. If he were to gain its recognition, wouldn’t that mean Wu Zhen’e’s status would far surpass his own as Sect Master?
