CHAPTER 492: CHAPTER 474 THE GREAT TRIBE

The flying treasure of the Blazing Fire Saint Venerable is extremely fast. In just half a month, it left the range of the Red Sun Divine Continent and entered the Sea of Immeasurable.

However, relying solely on this speed, it would take thousands of years to cover even one-tenth of the journey.

The Taiyang Divine Continent is really far from the Red Sun Divine Continent.

Solely relying on foot travel, it’s impossible to make it to the Heavenly God Ranking Contest in time.

However, the two were not anxious, as they were heading to the "Hundred Refinement Divine Continent," which is a great continent. According to the Blazing Fire Saint Venerable, there is a super teleportation array in the Divine Sect of the Hundred Refinement Divine Continent that leads to other great continents.

The super teleportation array can instantly transport life forms to a distant other side, traversing the distance of a great continent.

Only by using this method can Wang Xu arrive at the Heavenly God Peak in the shortest time possible.

"Blazing Fire Saint Venerable, have you heard of the Constant Power Cultivation Method?"

While on the journey, Wang Xu and the Blazing Fire Saint Venerable cultivated and conversed with each other.

The Blazing Fire Saint Venerable was approachable, without the airs of a great personage, perhaps knowing Wang Xu’s performance in the Tu Guo Divine Dynasty, being quite polite to this talented individual destined to ascend the Heavenly God List in the future.

"Constant Power Cultivation Method?"

The Blazing Fire Saint Venerable shook his head, "The Constant Power Cultivation Method does exist, but I have never encountered it. It is said that cultivation with constant force is extremely difficult and can transform the physical body. However, I have not even perfected my own Chaos Secret Scripture, let alone the Constant Power Cultivation."

Wang Xu wanted to know more about the Constant Power Cultivation.

The "Emperor’s Extreme Divine Suppression Record" was just a step away from advancing to the Third Realm. If he could reach the Third Realm before the Heavenly God Ranking Contest, his physical body would rival that of the Eternal Generations Celestial God, greatly increasing his chances of ascending the Heavenly God List.

But the Third Realm requires a great deal of constant force to break through.

Currently, Wang Xu’s realm has already reached the Peak Initial Celestial God Realm.

With his current strength, he can completely summon the Hundred Generations Thunder Tribulation and achieve the Hundred Generations Celestial God.

Yet within the Heavenly God Peak, the Initial Celestial God Realm faces a different group from the Hundred Generations Celestial God Realm.

To have more assurance in ascending the Heavenly God List, Wang Xu naturally chose to suppress his realm and contend with those in the Initial Celestial God Realm.

"Even the Blazing Fire Saint Venerable hasn’t encountered the Constant Power Cultivation Method?"

Wang Xu pondered inwardly.

Afterward, Wang Xu shifted the topic, and the two continued their conversation.

...

Time passed in such a rush.

As the years flew by, Wang Xu also toured around Chaos.

Wandering through the void for seventy years, he saw the vast, boundless Deep Blue Sea, touched the rocks of the Everspring Mountain, and even encountered the depredations of those in the Saint Venerable Realm.

Fortunately, with the protection of the Blazing Fire Saint Venerable, Wang Xu was able to come through it all safely.

"Young friend Wang Xu, we have arrived at the Taiyang Divine Continent."

Stepping out from the super teleportation array, the Blazing Fire Saint Venerable smiled.

The city they were in is one of the Divine Sects in the Taiyang Divine Continent equipped with a super teleportation array. In the Taiyang Divine Continent, there are countless such super teleportation arrays.

"The Taiyang Divine Continent... Is this the true Chaos Divine Continent?"

This city isn’t large, and in terms of land, it only occupies 200,000 kilometers. Wang Xu had already seen cities far larger than this, so he was long accustomed to it.

However, unlike the cities Wang Xu had seen before, the people coming and going around here were all in the Mixed Universe Realm, Initial Celestial God Realm.

"The entire city, at least, has a population of several tens of millions; thus, there are at least several tens of millions in the Mixed Universe Realm and tens of thousands in the Celestial God Realm!"

Wang Xu calculated silently in his heart.

This is merely the tip of the iceberg of the Taiyang Divine Continent, an insignificant, remote small city.

Yet it housed tens of thousands of Celestial God Realm individuals.

If one were to tally the entire number of Celestial God Realm individuals in the Taiyang Divine Continent, what an astronomical number would that be?

Wang Xu could hardly imagine, but he understood that this was one of the five Chaos Divine Continents, and here even the rarest things would become as ordinary as eating and drinking.

"Let’s go, we must quickly head to the Divine City and first obtain the qualification to enter the Heavenly God Peak."

Blazing Fire Saint Venerable said.

The two boarded a flying treasure and continued to traverse the void forward.

...

As the Heavenly God List drew more and more attention from the powerful, the status of the Heavenly God Peak also rose accordingly.

The originally barren area where the Heavenly God Peak is located has become bustling and prosperous due to each Heavenly God Ranking Contest. Just the "Divine Cities" that sprang up are ten in number.

Ten Divine Cities, each occupying a position, encircle the Heavenly God Peak within them.

But called Divine Cities, they don’t actually cover much more land than an ordinary main city, only several million kilometers.

"So many Gods have come to participate in the Heavenly God Ranking Contest."

When Wang Xu arrived at the Divine City, his first sight was of the surging crowds, which slightly surprised him.

These crowds come from various races, Divine Sects, and countries within the Chaos, having geared up for this Heavenly God Ranking Contest, fully prepared to make a grand showing.

"All ordinary races, just hot-headed individuals sending themselves to their deaths."

The Blazing Fire Saint Venerable shook his head.

The Heavenly God Ranking Contest is fiercely cruel. Without strength, one can only end up as a pile of rotting flesh, a skeleton, and some can’t even keep their corpses intact, being ground to dust, leaving nothing behind.

Such has always been the case with the Heavenly God Ranking Contests, yet there still are many clamoring to participate.

In the eyes of the Blazing Fire Saint Venerable, this behavior was purely courting death.

However, Wang Xu didn’t think so.

"These people, knowing their strength is insufficient, probably aren’t here to compete for the Celestial God List... I’m afraid this war is their real goal."

Wang Xu analyzed.

Knowing full well their strength wouldn’t gain recognition on the Celestial God List, why waste effort traveling such a great distance, could it be their heads were screwed on wrong, coming a thousand miles just to die?

No, no one would be that foolish.

Especially not those of the Celestial God Realm.

They came here for only one purpose — to profit from the war!

It’s understood that the Celestial God Peak attracts so many talented individuals, all striving for those mere hundreds of slots, therefore, they are bound to kill each other without hesitation for it.

The premise of slaughter is having strength, and what is strength?

Secret Techniques, Divine Medicines, Supreme Treasures!

This is the fundamental purpose of these people!

Secret Techniques, Divine Medicines, Supreme Treasures, each is priceless, yet abound on the battlefield. Moreover, if they can sell the corpse of a Celestial God Realm individual, it would also fetch a considerable price.

Adding it all together, the accumulated wealth is worth the risk for them.

"Oh? You’re saying they want to profit from the war?"

The Blazing Fire Saint Venerable nodded with vague comprehension, "You’re right, under great wealth there will be brave men, not to mention that this isn’t just great wealth, it’s colossal wealth! Their coveting it makes sense."

"Let’s go, find a place to settle temporarily."

Though the Divine City was bustling, crowded with people, no one lacked a place to stay.

Individuals of the Celestial God Realm can project their inner Divine Country outward to form a secluded abode whenever they want to rest.

...

The next day.

"Wang Xu, young friend, I will accompany you this far. I hope you can return safely this time!"

The Blazing Fire Saint Venerable had fulfilled his mission and naturally had to leave.

"Thank you."

Wang Xu remembered this favor.

The Blazing Fire Saint Venerable left aboard a flying Supreme Treasure, Wang Xu returned to the Divine City, waiting for the official opening of the Celestial God Peak while continuing his cultivation.

As time passed by day by day.

The Divine City grew more lively, with many strong individuals having arrived.

"Look quickly! That Nine-headed Phoenix... it’s the Nine Phoenix Clan!"

"Nine lives, nine deaths, undying and indestructible! This is the real Nine-headed Phoenix!"

"Heavens, this is one of the so-called ’Great Clans’ among the chaos. It is truly a privilege to witness a real Nine-headed Phoenix today, worthy of dying without regrets!"

Wang Xu was painstakingly cultivating when he suddenly heard an exclamation from outside, the magnitude greater than anything Wang Xu had heard before.

The opening of the Celestial God Peak had attracted countless races and factions.

Just those that Wang Xu had personally seen included more than a dozen Divine Dynasties and over twenty super clans.

For each Divine Dynasty or super clan that arrived, the holder is always a top-tier powerhouse of the Heaven-Reaching Ancestor Realm, and no matter which Divine Dynasty or super clan arrived, it would inevitably cause a sensation.

But today’s sensation was extraordinarily great, even surprising Wang Xu.

"The Nine Phoenix Clan?"

Wang Xu extended his spiritual consciousness and immediately saw a gigantic bird in the sky, covering the heavens and blocking out the sun.

A Saint Venerable Dominator Realm beast!

The gigantic bird that blotted out the sky had emanations from which could be sensed that it was a powerful Saint Venerable Dominator Realm beast, its true strength was even above that of a Duality Saint Venerable!

This massive bird had nine heads, enveloped in a burning-like nine-colored mist, breathing the essence of heaven and earth, inhaling and exhaling the Supreme Law. If not for the array of the Divine City diminishing most of its life suppression, perhaps the life suppression alone would be enough to make Wang Xu kneel on the spot.

"You Ji, what is the origin of the Nine Phoenix Clan?"

Wang Xu asked in his heart.

You Ji’s figure in red robes appeared and looked up at the nine-headed bird.

"The Nine Phoenix Clan is one of the six ’Great Clans’ in the chaos, their totem is this Nine-headed Phoenix. When I followed Qing Fa in the past, I once visited the Nine Phoenix Clan, their Clan Leader was very respectful to me, but alas time changes all, and it’s not as it once was..."

You Ji reminisced.

"Great Clan?"

Wang Xu didn’t understand.

"You don’t even know about the Great Clans?"

You Ji rolled her eyes, "In the entire chaos, there are six Great Clans, each Great Clan is overseen by a Great Emperor. When Qing Fa existed, he founded the ’Qing Clan’..."

"Qing Clan?"

Wang Xu immediately thought of the Qing Yi Divine Master’s clan, wasn’t it the Qing Clan?

"I know what you’re thinking, and you’re right, the Qing Clan Qing Sibai belongs to is a final branch of the Qing Clan founded by Qing Fa in the past. Not just the Qing Clan, almost every Great Clan, even the super clans, will have such end branches. These end branches are beyond counting, scattered all over the chaos, long have no connection with the true Great Clans."

You Ji explained, "A Great Clan rises with the birth of a Great Emperor and falls with the Great Emperor’s decline, the Qing Clan is the best example of this." (To be continued.
