The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 1183: Kunlun Divine Scroll

Chapter 1183: Chapter 1183: Kunlun Divine Scroll

Time had quickly passed.

In the blink of an eye, half an hour had gone by.

Blood flowed along the edges of the Xuan Pool, eerily terrifying.

Up to now, there were only over one thousand geniuses left in the Xuan Pool; apart from the top hundred on the list of prodigies, most creatures had already been injured to various degrees and were also exhausted.

Sun Wukong and Li Yuanba were covered in blood, but fortunately, when their lives were at risk, Qin Jun would intervene promptly to help them resolve the crisis.

Contrarily, Qin Jun remained unscathed, clad in white, his body enveloped in a dragon aura, so no metal men could approach him.

Di Tianwu wielded his Great Annihilation Axe, his surroundings littered with metal fragments, having already smashed many metal men, attesting to the domineering power of the Great Annihilation Axe.

In the Xuan Pool, only a few prodigies could smash the metal men; therefore, the number of metal men still far exceeded that of the talented prodigies.

Unnoticed from when, Xiao Rushui was seated on the ground, meditating; intense spiritual energy gathered around him, entering through the top of his head, forming a whirlpool of airflow.

His aura invisibly blasted the metal men attacking nearby. Master Miao Yu seemed to take note that the metal men could not harm Rushui and then thoughtfully no longer sent metal men to attack Xiao Rushui.

The number of metal men surrounding Ye Nanfeng, Kun Qu, and Sikong Jingshuan also progressively decreased, all intentionally done by Master Miao Yu.

Only Qin Jun remained formidable, yet the number of metal men around him increased.

Qin Jun noticed this and was quite annoyed.

"Could it be that this fellow is deliberately targeting me?"

Qin Jun glanced at Master Miao Yu floating above, who was elevated, eyes closed, resting and replenishing.

Could it be that the Holy Sect had already seen through his true nature and were mocking him?

At this thought, a chilling gleam flashed in Qin Jun’s eyes.

If it were indeed so, Master Miao Yu would find himself on Qin Jun’s death list.

Time continued to elapse.

The time limit of an hour was drawing nearer, and fewer than three hundred beings remained in the Xuan Pool.

Some emissaries of the Holy Sect looked disappointed because the geniuses they led were almost entirely wiped out.

"I didn’t expect there to be quite a few good seeds in the outer universe, who might later become elite disciples."

The corners of Master Miao Yu’s mouth slightly curved upwards, his most valued individuals being two—Xiao Rushui and Qin Jun.

As for Di Tianwu, he didn’t give him much thought, for he was aligned with the Divine Emperor.

The relationship between the Divine Emperor and the Holy Sect was delicate; this time, the Divine Emperor had already coordinated with the Holy Sect, and Di Tianwu was already a candidate for elite disciples. Master Miao Yu quite disliked this type of relationship, therefore wasn’t keen on Di Tianwu, but didn’t dare to react openly, he could only turn a blind eye.

"Yin—"

Dragon aura swirled around Sun Wukong and Li Yuanba, aiding them in fending off the attacks from the surrounding metal men.

At this moment, both Li Yuanba and Sun Wukong were bloodied, with multiple fractures, back-to-back, gasping for breath, their faces filled with bitter smiles.

Without their outrageously resilient bodies, they would have been annihilated by the metal men.

"It seems we are still not up to it," Sun Wukong felt discouraged.

Li Yuanba grinned and said, "What’s there to fear, His Majesty will soon make you a sage."

At these words, Sun Wukong’s eyes lit up, his spirits lifted.

Yet, he did not get up to fight again because he simply had no strength left.

Although he had the special attribute of growing stronger through battle, he ultimately had his own limits.

After a long while,

the hour finally arrived.

Master Miao Yu abruptly opened his eyes, all the metal men suddenly stopped, with over thirty thousand metal men still in the Xuan Pool, all covered in blood—not their own, but that of the talented prodigies.

The remaining two hundred-plus talented prodigies sighed in relief, some even collapsing to the ground.

The terrifying suction of the Mysterious Pool did not stop, and now that the battle had ended, they relaxed their minds and instantly felt weak.

"Rest for a while and prepare for the next round of assessment, which is also the last round!"

Master Miao Yu said emotionlessly, making the remaining creatures tense up.

Whether they could Leap the Dragon Gate depended on the upcoming assessment.

Qin Jun took out two Daluo Recovery Pills and gave them to Sun Wukong and Li Yuanba, instructing, "If later you are unable to participate in the assessment, I will immediately strengthen you on the spot, and you will be drawn into the void space I created to receive a direct enlightenment. Do not resist."

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong and Li Yuanba were instantly excited and nodded in agreement.

Qin Jun looked up towards another direction of the Mysterious Pool and saw that the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny had stayed behind. It seemed that the Qiuming Emperor was not unfair to him, allowing his strength to leap.

"That means there are now fifty chosen ones in the Mysterious Pool about to become disciples of the Holy Sect!"

"Wow, if anyone among them manages to take a sage as a mentor, the forces behind them will undoubtedly soar to great heights."

"Sages, huh... everyone says it, but what exactly makes a sage so formidable?"

"’Immortal through countless calamities,’ how does that sound for impressive?"

"I feel like the Heavenly Emperor of Qin will become a disciple of the Holy Sect, plus the thriving Great Qin Heavenly Court... hiss... who would dare oppose the Heavenly Emperor of Qin in the future?"

The creatures discussed animatedly. At this time, the chosen ones in the Mysterious Pool began to gather in groups, preparing to form teams.

Mo Xuanzi quickly approached Qin Jun and laughed while rubbing his hands together: "Heavenly Emperor, how about we team up?"

"Not interested!"

Qin Jun refused without hesitation. Although Mo Xuanzi’s cultivation had reached the late stages of entering the realm of the sage, he just did not appeal to him.

Mo Xuanzi nearly choked with shock, then with a twinkle in his eye, he asked with a smile, "Heavenly Emperor, haven’t you noticed that Fairy Nansu hasn’t shown up?"

Fairy Nansu?

Qin Jun narrowed his eyes. He still held some feelings for Fairy Nansu, having braved mortal dangers together.

"Hasn’t she gone back for secluded cultivation?"

Qin Jun asked nonchalantly.

"Wrong, she’s received a great opportunity!"

Mo Xuanzi said mysteriously, sparking Qin Jun’s curiosity. "What opportunity?"

"Take me into the Holy Sect, and I’ll tell you!"

"Get lost!"

"You don’t care about her?"

"Yeah."

"..."

Looking at Qin Jun’s cold face, Mo Xuanzi was almost in tears. Why was this guy so impenetrable?

Just then, Master Miao Yu suddenly spoke, "The assessment continues. Next, we’ll assess your perceptiveness."

The Mysterious Pool instantly quieted down, and the more than two hundred creatures looked at Master Miao Yu nervously.

Assess perceptiveness?

How?

Master Miao Yu raised his right hand, and a sphere of light flew out from his sleeve, transforming into a scroll that quickly unfolded. Golden light burst forth, illuminating the entire Mysterious Pool. The image was facing the ground of the Mysterious Pool, less than five hundred meters from the surface, making it difficult for the surrounding creatures to see.

From Qin Jun’s perspective, he could see that the scroll was filled with dense, strange characters that swirled about like tadpoles, dazzling the eyes.

"This is the Kunlun Divine Scroll, containing countless Divine Powers. Among you, the first fifty to perceive a Divine Power will become disciples of the Holy Sect."

Master Miao Yu continued, and upon hearing this, all the creatures erupted in excitement.

Such a ruthless rule for the assessment!

The Divine Powers of the Holy Sect were undoubtedly extraordinary; not only could they become disciples of the Holy Sect, but they could also obtain a powerful Divine Power, how could they not be thrilled?
