Chapter 1247: Chapter 221: The Arrival of the Climactic Battle

East Profound Region, Jitian City, Qingyun Academy.

At the ancient teleportation array, light shimmered this moment as a large number of Qingyun Academy disciples were teleported back.

Among them were the academy’s top geniuses such as Yan Qi, Ao Guang, Wang Yuan, and others, each of them wounded, and some even had multiple bloody holes on their bodies, their complexions pale to the extreme.

Clearly, the final qualification battle had been extremely fierce, but in the end, they had failed.

Out of the thousands of students from Qingyun Academy who took part in the battle, a third had died, and another third had basically failed to pass the test.

Only Gu Chen, Princess Xidie, Yun Zishu, and Zhenyuan were not present at this location.

Even the holy son of Cloud Heaven Palace, Bai Jingyuan, and the vexation from the Sumeru Buddhist Sect, Su Nan, had failed, standing on the spot with bitter expressions.

"It’s alright, defeat is defeat. With the young prodigies of ten thousand tribes from three thousand six hundred realms gathered together, it’s normal to fail. As long as you did your best," said Great Powers like Cui Ji from the academy, who had been waiting here, comforting them.

"No matter what, although it was just a participation in the selection battle, it has widened your horizons and will help you on your future path," said one of the Great Powers.

At these words, although their faces were unsightly, Yan Qi and the others nodded in agreement. Participating in this selection battle, with prodigies from three thousand six hundred realms gathered and randomly assigned, even the descendants of undying Dao lineages and the top ten races appeared, which truly made them aware of their severe shortcomings.

If they could make improvements, they would also be able to achieve significant progress.

"Having four individuals enter the true sacred world is already a decent achievement," the Qingyun Academy Great Powers exchanged looks and silently nodded to each other.

And as a massive amount of young cultivators were teleported out, all beings in the upper realm came to know that the ultimate main event was about to begin!

"The pinnacle battle begins. Now, let’s see who will reach the very top this time and become the strongest prodigy of the upper realm, or perhaps, of all times!" Suddenly, a powerful being spoke out loud, his voice booming, echoing through the heavens and earth.

Boom!

At the same time, a loud explosion sounded throughout the heavens and earth as the Dao Gold List covering the entire sky of the upper realm lit up, with billions of rays of holy light falling down, creating an incredibly astonishing scene.

"The true sacred realm has opened!" Realizing this, people became extremely excited.

The selection battle, though it took place in an unpredictable world, was, strictly speaking, only the outermost periphery of the sacred realm, or a sort of attached world.

Even some of the Great Powers did not consider it as the sacred realm.

Only after the final three hundred and sixty thousand prodigies were determined would the true sacred realm open.

"Let’s wait and see!"

The opening of the sacred realm was the most attention-catching and significant battle among the Ten Thousand Tribes in history, causing the Great Powers to keep their eyes fixed on the firmament ceaselessly.

"The Dao Gold List is connected to the sacred realm, and the essence of every cultivator who enters the sacred realm will be inscribed upon it, allowing us to watch the progress of our descendants," said a Great Power-level figure.

Of course, this process was not without its costs, and even the Great Powers of the heavenly realm could not accomplish this. Only the leading figures and even the strongest beings, using their supreme cultivation to mobilize the Dao of heaven and earth, could inscribe the names of their descendants, and the Dao Gold List that covered the sky of the upper realm would then respond, consequently producing imagery.

This was common knowledge, well understood by all families, and occasionally, indeed, the powerful would take action to explore.

Even now, on the Dao Gold List that overshadowed the entire sky, one could occasionally see flickering images, snapshots of rapidly changing scenes.

Bang!

Suddenly, a majestic aura shook the heavens and the earth, and a thunderous sound arose as people saw a towering figure rise into the sky, sitting in mid-air.

A supreme being!

The aura emanating from this person was so powerful that it could be clearly felt across dozens of realms, and many accomplished cultivators could even glimpse that transcendental figure.

"Let this one see what’s different about the opening of the sacred realm this time," murmured the supreme being, his figure hazy, sitting there like a deity.

At this moment, he extended a finger and inscribed into the void with supreme cultivation, eventually writing down a name.

"Is that one of the old ancestors of the Chiyun Clan from the top thirty races of the upper realm?!" Someone with sharp eyes recognized the identity of this supreme being and couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

Hum!

As the strokes of this supreme being’s writing were completed, that name shone brilliantly and then turned into a beam of light, stirring the heavens and earth, and then merging into the Dao Gold List in the firmament.

Hum!

When a supreme being acted, setting the Dao into motion, there were no exceptions. The likeness of a young being appeared in the Dao Gold List in the sky, along with an image, visible to all in the three thousand six hundred realms of the upper world, even to the common folk.

"Is this the strongest prodigy of the younger generation of the Chiyun Clan, Chiyun Ming?"

The young figure, tall and graceful with loose hair and a distinguished air, had pronounced features. Standing there, he looked extremely domineering and spirited.

At this moment, this top prodigy of a top thirty race from the upper world was engaged in fierce battle with another being.

It was an enormous avian creature flickering with electric light.

"Ranked among the top fifty of the upper world—the strongest prodigy of the Leiyun Sparrow tribe has begun a great battle upon entering the sacred realm?!" On seeing this scene, someone couldn’t help but cry out in astonishment.
