A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 528

Chapter 528: The Thousand Sect Tournament Begins

“Has he really broken through from the late-stage Immortal Emperor to the peak God King in such a short time?”

Wu Yidao’s expression grew serious as he thought to himself.

It was worth noting that the Ancient Holy Lord had only left the Xuanyuan Realm for a hundred million years but had already advanced from late-stage Immortal Emperor to peak God King. The sheer terror of that achievement was undeniable.

Shaking his head, Wu Yidao pushed the thought aside. Given a hundred million years, the Ancient Holy Lord’s accomplishments would only become more terrifying.

Just now, from the Great Elder’s words, Wu Yidao also learned that the Ancient Holy Lord had appeared in the Domain of Myriad Laws only a few hundred years ago, then rushed off in the direction of Zhongkong.

“First, let’s deal with the crisis Wudao Sect is currently facing before leaving. Since we have news of the Ancient Holy Lord, there’s no need to rush,” Wu Yidao thought quietly, deciding to resolve Wudao Sect’s present danger first.

…

In the blink of an eye, time passed quickly, bringing them to the start of the Thousand Sect Tournament.

Before Venerable Wanguang stood Wu Yifan and others. Aside from Wu Yifan, the expressions on the faces of the Wan Guang Sect disciples were filled with overwhelming tension.After all, what awaited them next was a life-or-death test—if they weren’t careful, they could truly die inside.

Noticing the expressions of his disciples, Venerable Wanguang shook his head and said seriously,

“Soon, the Bahuang Sect will leave a mark on each of you to monitor your condition. If you want to concede, just say so, and the Elders of the Bahuang Sect will transport you out.”

“Yes, Sect Master.”

The disciples all nodded solemnly in response.

After giving the instructions, Venerable Wanguang turned to Wu Yifan with a grave tone and said,

“Yifan, once you’re in the Divine Rank realm, if any of our disciples face a life-threatening crisis, protect them if you can.”

At those words, Wu Yifan furrowed his brow. He wasn’t very fond of doing this kind of thing, but since the request came from Venerable Wanguang, he agreed.

Seeing Wu Yifan nod in agreement, Venerable Wanguang finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the Wan Guang Sect disciples around him relaxed as well.

They all naturally knew how strong Wu Yifan was, so with his protection this time, things should be secure.But the next second, Wu Yifan continued to speak.

“If they provoke others, I won’t intervene.”

“Mm, if they recklessly go looking for death, you don’t have to step in.”

Venerable Wanguang nodded in full agreement.

Soon, the disciples of Wan Guang Sect, led by Venerable Wanguang, headed toward the area outside the Eight Desolations Domain.

The Eight Desolations Divine Realm was not located within the Eight Desolations Domain itself but in a place near its border.

Before long, Venerable Wanguang arrived with the sect’s disciples in front of the Eight Desolations Divine Realm. Upon reaching it, the Wan Guang Sect disciples were all stunned by the unimaginably grand entrance to the Divine Realm before them.

Towering in front of them stood an enormous Gate of the Divine Realm. Looking at it, everyone felt overwhelmingly small and insignificant, like ants.

But Wu Yifan’s expression remained unchanged—after all, he had seen such sights many times and was naturally accustomed to them.

Soon after, Venerable Wanguang led the Wan Guang Sect disciples to the sects participating in the Thousand Sect Tournament.Perhaps Venerable Wanguang had been an incredibly powerful presence within the territory of the Wan Guang Sect, but compared to the sect masters gathered for the Thousand Sect Tournament, he no longer seemed all that formidable. After all, Venerable Wanguang was only at the Early Divine Lord stage, while at the scene there were many at the Intermediate and Late Divine Lord stages, and even some at the Peak Divine Venerable level.

Soon, Venerable Wanguang led the Wan Guang Sect disciples to stand before a powerful figure, speaking in a very respectful tone.

“Elder Chen.”

The strong figure addressed as Elder Chen by Venerable Wanguang opened his eyes, calmly looking at the Wan Guang Sect disciples behind Venerable Wanguang and said in a flat tone, “Hmm, so these are the disciples of your Wan Guang Sect. As expected, they’re extraordinary.”

Although Elder Chen was speaking to the Wan Guang Sect disciples, Wu Yifan could sense that his gaze had remained fixed on him the entire time.

Hearing this, Venerable Wanguang couldn’t help but smile and say, “Elder Chen, you flatter us. Before we face the disciples of Bahuang Sect, our Wan Guang Sect still has much to train.”

“Alright, enough modesty. I know the situation of Bahuang Sect very well,” Elder Chen replied.After Elder Chen finished speaking, he waved his large hand, embedding marks into the bodies of the Wan Guang Sect disciples, who naturally all noticed. Wu Yifan’s expression grew serious. He wasn’t fond of having marks placed on him; if it weren’t for the Xuan Yuan Fruit, he would have long since erased the marks within him.

“All right, you all can rest for now. The Eight Desolations Divine Realm won’t open for about three more days. When it does, you can enter directly,” Elder Chen said after finishing the markings.

Venerable Wanguang expressed his thanks once again before leading the Wan Guang Sect disciples away to wait.

After Venerable Wanguang and the others left, Elder Chen narrowed his eyes and muttered softly while looking in Wu Yifan’s direction, “It seems this time the Sect Master’s junior disciple is going to face some challengers.”

But Elder Chen didn’t pay much mind to it. They were all strong fighters—how could they interfere with struggles among the younger generation? Although Wu Yifan was at the Heavenly God Realm, in front of Elder Chen, who was at the Late Stage God Venerable level, he was no different from a junior.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Venerable Wanguang led the Wan Guang Sect disciples to a secluded place to wait.While waiting, Venerable Wanguang spoke with an extremely grave tone.

“Three days from now, you will enter the Eight Desolations Divine Realm. Once inside, you will engage in battles until only one person remains; only then will it end.”

“Also, when you enter the Eight Desolations Divine Realm, you will be randomly teleported to a location within it, so be careful. If the situation turns dangerous, withdraw immediately.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Yifan finally spoke, looking toward Venerable Wanguang with a serious expression.

“Sect Master, how large is the Eight Desolations Divine Realm exactly?”

“How large? Even I have never been inside. All I know is that the Eight Desolations Divine Realm was created by the Bahuang Divine Emperor, and no one truly knows its size. It’s said that not even the Elders of the Bahuang Sect have entered it. Only the Bahuang Divine Emperor has full control and understanding of what lies within.”

Venerable Wanguang shook his head, his tone unflinchingly solemn.

Wu Yifan nodded but felt a growing heaviness inside. For some reason, ever since arriving at the Eight Desolations Divine Realm, he had vaguely sensed a wave of unease.

One must realize that for someone of his strength level, such a feeling of unease never arises for no reason.

“So, is there something off about the Eight Desolations Divine Realm ahead?”

“But even if something feels off, I still have to go in. After all, this is a rare chance to obtain the Xuan Yuan Fruit.”

The Xuan Yuan Fruit was extremely precious, even for God Venerables, but what made it truly terrifying was its rarity throughout the entire Divine Realm. Even God Emperors didn’t necessarily have access to one.

Although Wu Yifan didn’t know why the Bahuang Divine Emperor had chosen the Xuan Yuan Fruit as a reward, he understood that this was the best opportunity he currently had to obtain it.

So no matter what traps lay ahead, Wu Yifan would step forward without hesitation.
