Eternal Sacred King

2197 World of Flames
The moment Xie Ling said that, many Earth Immortals could not wait any longer and charged towards the crack in midair.

Figures soared into the air one after another, wanting to enter the Nine Heavens as soon as possible.

Everyone from the academy took a deep breath and moved one after another. Before long, they entered the crack and disappeared.

Prince Yuan Zuo watched Su Zimo enter the Nine Heavens before heaving a sigh of relief.

“Although there were some mistakes in the process, it did not affect our plans,”

Prince Yuan Zuo secretly sent a voice transmission to Heaven Immortal White Sea’s spirit consciousness.

Heaven Immortal White Sea waved his folding fan and sent a voice transmission, “This matter was almost spoiled by Yun Ting. Thankfully, Su Zimo was arrogant and conceited and did not give up on the Earth Ranking.”

Just as Prince Yuan Zuo and Heaven Immortal White Sea were communicating with their spirit consciousnesses, the two of them suddenly felt a chill and their hairs stood on end!

Opposite the two of them, Yun Ting drank his wine and looked at them with a fake smile, his gaze sharp as a sword!

“If you have anything to say, why don’t you say it in public? Why are you muttering in secret?”

Yun Ting smiled. “Your dirty affairs are no longer a secret anyway.”

Prince Yuan Zuo and Heaven Immortal White Sea were expressionless and did not get angry.

However, the two of them were secretly alarmed.

Yun Ting was only a Grade 2 Heaven Immortal but his senses were way too sharp!

When the two of them communicated through voice transmission earlier on, their spirit consciousnesses merely circulated between them and the radius was extremely small.

Even so, Yun Ting, who was sitting opposite them, sensed it despite the distance between them!

In that short period of time, most of the Earth Immortals who wanted to contend for the Earth Ranking had already entered the Nine Heavens.

Of course, there were also some Earth Immortals in the square who did not move because they wanted to back off at the last minute.

Upon entering the Nine Heavens, life and death was irreversible.

It was said that in the past elimination rounds of the Nine Heavens, close to a fifth of the Earth Immortals died.

This time round, there were close to a million Earth Immortals who entered the Nine Heavens. A fifth meant that 200,000 Earth Immortals would not be able to come out alive—the mortality rate was extremely high!

Although opportunities and fame were important, for some people, there was only hope if they survived.

Furthermore, for most Earth Immortals, there was no chance for them to fight for the Earth Ranking.

There were a million people but only a hundred spots on the Earth Ranking—the competition was way too intense!

A moment later, when Xie Ling saw that no one else was heading to the Nine Heavens in the square, he drew a few runes in midair.

The gigantic crack closed slowly and returned to normal, as though it had never appeared.

Immediately after, Xie Ling released another stream of True Essence power above the square.

A gigantic mirror appeared in midair and enveloped the square like a transparent firmament.

The gigantic mirror reflected everything in the Nine Heavens clearly. Although everyone in the square had not entered the Nine Heavens, they could see the situation inside clearly.

In the upper world, there were many methods to reflect another world and they were extremely ordinary.

The elders of the academy looked at the mirror in the firmaments and focused their attention on Su Zimo and the other 19 disciples. They prayed in their hearts that everything would go smoothly and nothing would happen.

“Your Highness, do you think Mr. Su will be able to tide through this crisis?”

On the side of the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom, a young man dressed as a servant asked softly beside Xie Qingcheng as he served tea.

It was Xu Xiaotian who had just been taken in by Xie Qingcheng.

Under normal circumstances, he was not qualified to participate in such an event.

However, Xie Qingcheng knew that Xu Xiaotian cared about and respected Su Zimo. As such, he sent Xu Xiaotian into the group of servants to serve him while watching this rare immortal cultivation event!

Xie Qingcheng shook his head gently. “I don’t know either. Brother Su’s methods are definitely not weak. However, his opponents are truly strong.”

“More importantly, no one knows when or where the other party will attack.”

Xu Xiaotian was enlightened and said, “In other words, after Mr. Su enters the Nine Heavens, not only will he have to be careful of the dangers of the Nine Heavens, he will also have to be on guard against the attacks of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and Flying Immortal Sect!”

“That’s right.”

Xie Qingcheng stared at the mirror in the firmaments above him and murmured, “Where will they attack?”

…

Nine Heavens.

After Su Zimo entered the crack, he felt a heatwave surge towards him. After a moment of dizziness, his five senses were restored.

Standing in midair, Su Zimo surveyed his surroundings.

This was a world of flames.

Everywhere he looked, raging flames burned and surged into the skies. The temperature of the world was extremely high and heatwaves surged. The air was dry and suffocating.

Su Zimo could see more than ten Earth Immortals descending in a scattered manner.

Although he entered the Nine Heavens at the same time as everyone from the academy, he was separated by the spatial power of the Nine Heavens and the outside world and they were dispersed.

It was the same for the other cultivators. No matter how many people entered at the same time, they would be separated and landed at the outer perimeter of Level 1.

The teleportation formation to Level 2 was in the middle of the space.

All the cultivators had to pass through the flaming world as soon as possible and arrive at the center. They had to activate the teleportation formation and ascend to Level 2.

All of a sudden!

Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat as he looked up at the firmaments above him.

A spirit light descended from the skies and floated in front of him.

It looked like a rectangular badge. Su Zimo received it and his spirit consciousness moved, leaving a spirit consciousness imprint on it.

Immediately after, the badge shone with a light and a number appeared.

“897,593.”

Prior to this, Princess Scarlet Rainbow had told him that this was a tracking secret skill of the Nine Heavens. By leaving a spirit consciousness imprint, it could lock onto everyone’s approximate location and determine the order of ranking towards the end of Level 5.

The closer one was to the endpoint of Level 5, the higher their ranking.

Right now, the number Su Zimo could see was more than 890,000. This meant that there were close to 900,000 Earth Immortals who were closer to the endpoint than him!

The final ranking of the Nine Heavens elimination round was a competition of who arrived first and left their names on the stele.

Therefore, the badge that could display the ranking was extremely important as well. One could determine their position at any moment and make the corresponding decision.

For example, some cultivators might make it to Level 4 after much difficulty. If they realized that there were more than 200,000 people ahead of them at that point, they could choose to give up.

Su Zimo placed the badge in his storage bag and looked at the few cultivators in the distance.

The cultivators advanced towards the center of the space and were drenched in sweat before long. Unable to withstand it, they released their immortal arts to defend against the surrounding scorching flames.

“So, this place is so difficult to endure?”

When Su Zimo ascended, he merely felt that the temperature was slightly higher and did not sense anything unusual.

The flames of this space could easily burn Black Immortals to ashes!

Even high-level Earth Immortals would find it difficult to defend against such an environment without the protection of Dharmic treasures and talismans!

However, Su Zimo had a Grade 10 Green Lotus True Body and his body was not inferior to a connate earth-grade Dharmic treasure!

He felt almost nothing when he ascended here.
