This scene.
Suddenly attracted the attention of many Immortals and Gods on the island. Immortals and Gods who can cultivate here are all considered extraordinary talents, with their understanding of the Dao reaching at least the peak level of Star Lords.
But at this moment, they still looked in amazement at the two flying figures in the sky.
Master of the Heart Cliff? Most Immortals and Gods had never seen him before, but they felt his vast and endless aura and judged him to be a Sovereign.
However.
They all sensed Wu Yuan's aura, just an Immortal.
"Immortals can fly in the sky tens of thousands of miles above ground?"
"Only those who have passed the ninety-fifth floor of the Seven-Star Tower are qualified to fly in the Forbidden Zone."
"Who is that?" These Immortals and Gods were puzzled. As core members of the Holy Land, they were all extremely proud. Each one of them would be considered a top genius in the Great Realm if placed casually.
Precisely because of this, they understood how rare it was to fly tens of thousands of miles high above Taiyuan Island.
By passing the one hundredth floor of the Six-Star Tower or the ninety-fifth floor of the Seven-Star Tower, one could fly three thousand miles high.
By passing the ninety-fifth floor of the Seven-Star Tower, one could fly tens of thousands of miles high.
Throughout Taiyuan Island, the number of people qualified to fly tens of thousands of miles high was also very limited.
"Never seen before!"
"Who is that?" These Immortals and Gods were puzzled. Such a character on Taiyuan Island would definitely be a prominent figure, with the qualifications of a Sovereign, admired and followed by countless members of Taiyuan Island.
Suddenly!
"I found out, the information on Taiyuan Island has just been updated! It's Mingjian! Mingjian!" An Immortal and God exclaimed.
"Mingjian, who has been practicing on the Temporal Island?"
"The displayed information shows that Mingjian has passed through the First-Star Tower to the Hundredth Floor of the Six-Star Tower, and has also passed through the Ninety-fifth Floor of the Seven-Star Tower." Immediately, an Immortal exclaimed.
Suddenly, many Immortals and Gods on the island were shocked.
Most of them had heard of Mingjian, knowing that he was an extraordinary genius practicing in the Temporal Realm of the Divine Court.
Extremely young, with an extremely fast cultivation speed.
But many Immortals and Gods had never expected that when he returned to Taiyuan Island, he would be so exaggerated.
Ninety-fifth floor of the Seven-Star Tower? This indicated that Mingjian's understanding of the Dao had reached the peak level of a Star Lord.
"Cultivating for over ten thousand years, reaching the peak level of a Star Lord? Doesn't that mean he's almost on par with Wu Yuan from the Witch Court?" An Immortal was speechless.
They didn't doubt the accuracy of the information on Taiyuan Island, just feeling amazed.
The news of Mingjian passing the Ninety-fifth Floor of the Seven-Star Tower and returning to Taiyuan Island spread like wildfire among the millions of geniuses on Taiyuan Island.
"Mingjian?"
"He's back?"
"It is said that he has never practiced on Taiyuan Island and went to the Temporal Realm when he was very young." Countless geniuses on Taiyuan Island received the news and discussed it.
"Mingjian?"
"I didn't expect that, once back, he would still be a prominent figure on Taiyuan Island." Inside an inconspicuous palace on the island, Nie Zhen, dressed in black robes, received the news and sighed.
His understanding of the Dao had reached the initial stage of a Star Lord, and he was the most core member of the Taiyuan Divine Court in the Temporal Realm.
But among the millions of geniuses on Taiyuan Island, although he was still at the forefront, he was far from being the top figure.
The prominent figures on Taiyuan Island were a group of extraordinary geniuses who had passed the Ninety-fifth Floor of the Seven-Star Tower.
...As for the commotion he caused as soon as he arrived at Taiyuan Island, Wu Yuan was not aware.
He also checked some of his own information.
"Ninety-fifth floor of the Seven-Star Tower?" Wu Yuan was also slightly surprised. He hadn't passed the Seven-Star Tower for over ten thousand years.
"Don't worry about it."
"The Seven-Star Tower is just a benchmark for countless geniuses in the Divine Court." Master of the Heart Cliff smiled, "Your strength is sufficient, you have already proven yourself, naturally, I will count you as having passed directly, no need to waste more time."
Wu Yuan suddenly realized.
The ninety floors of the Seven-Star Tower require at least the mid-level comprehension of a Star Lord to pass.
The ninety-fifth floor requires the pinnacle level comprehension of a Star Lord to have a chance of passing.
The higher you go, the harder it gets.
"I, with my current cultivation, should be able to pass the ninety-eighth or ninety-ninth floor." Wu Yuan pondered to himself.
He had never tried.
Passing the one hundredth floor of the Seven-Star Tower would be the benchmark for the strongest geniuses.
"We're here." Master of the Heart Cliff led Wu Yuan to quickly descend. This was the highest area of the entire island.
The palaces here were exceptionally large, forming a group of palaces.
Each group of palaces stretched for tens of thousands of miles.
"Thirteen groups of palaces?" Wu Yuan's gaze swept over, sensing that twelve of these palace groups had owners.
"Come out, greet the newcomer." Master of the Heart Cliff's voice was low, echoing in the vast world, containing astonishing penetrative power, as if it could completely ignore the restrictions of these palaces.
But this rolling sound did not affect other areas.
Soon!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Figures flew out quickly from these palace groups, some male, some female, some even appeared to be beast-like, all of them were Immortals and Gods, but each one had an extraordinary aura.
To Wu Yuan's perception, they seemed to be almost on par with Southern Sound Immortal, and even if they were weaker, they weren't much weaker.
Some of them seemed even stronger!
A total of twelve.
By now, Wu Yuan understood that these twelve Immortals and Gods should be the top twelve geniuses of the Taiyuan Divine Court in this generation.
Among the twelve geniuses.
The leader was a young woman in a purple robe and another figure wearing black clothes with a tiger head.
"Pay respects to the Master." The twelve Immortals and Gods all bowed respectfully.
Obviously.
Although these geniuses had not yet given birth to truly the strongest geniuses, their understanding of the Dao at the Immortal and God level was so profound that they had a high probability of becoming Sovereigns in the future.
So they were qualified to be personally guided by the Master.
"Mingjian, these are your twelve companions." Master of the Heart Cliff said.
Immediately, these twelve Immortals and Gods looked at Wu Yuan with curious eyes.
"He is the Mingjian I often mentioned to you before, who can rival the Destruction Court's Yuxiang and the Witch Court's Wu Yuan." Master of the Heart Cliff looked down at the twelve geniuses. "You should have seen his growth experience and some battle images."
"Mingjian?"
"He's Mingjian?" These twelve geniuses had obviously heard of Mingjian's name.
"Mingjian, who has only cultivated for over ten thousand years, has been practicing on the Temporal Island in the Temporal Realm and is an amazing genius." Master of the Heart Cliff continued, "In terms of talent, none of you are comparable to him."
"In terms of strength, he is probably the number one among you."
As soon as these words came out, many geniuses' expressions changed.
Talent? They basically acknowledged it. Mingjian had only cultivated for over ten thousand years, while the shortest among them had cultivated for over three hundred thousand years.
But to say that he was the strongest now?
It wasn't enough to make these geniuses convinced; they were all full of pride.
"Not convinced?" Master of the Heart Cliff's voice seemed to carry a hint of amusement. "If any of you are not convinced, you are welcome to come forward and test Mingjian's strength. The Divine Court has always spoken with strength."
"I've said it before, the top three in strength will be eligible for headquarters blessings before entering the Universe Sky Road." Master of the Heart Cliff's gaze swept over each genius. "Who wants to come and test Mingjian's strength?"
Wu Yuan was very calm.
He understood that Master of the Heart Cliff was using him to educate these geniuses.
However, if he lost, he would be the one being educated.
Silence fell.
"No one wants to?" Master of the Heart Cliff scanned with his gaze. "Alright, from today onwards, you will all call Mingjian Big Brother."
"The Master, I'm willing to give it a try!" A cold voice rang out, belonging to a young god in black armor.
"Xiang Wei?"
Master of the Heart Cliff smiled slightly. "Bold indeed. Alright, let you be the first to battle Mingjian."
Whoosh!
Master of the Heart Cliff waved his hand towards the void, and space tore open, revealing a vast paradise world.
"Mingjian, do you dare to accept the challenge?" Master of the Heart Cliff looked towards Wu Yuan.
Silence.
Whoosh!
Wu Yuan flashed and had already entered the paradise world. Then he smiled, "Mingjian is willing to learn from Brother Xiang Wei's skills."

(End of this chapter)
Chapter 469: Stand Invincible
"Hmph!" The young man in black armor, Xiang Wei, snorted coldly upon seeing the situation.
Whoosh! In an instant, he also flew into the paradise world.
The world created by the Master of the Heart Cliff was vast, spanning millions of miles, providing enough space for the two to determine the outcome.
Wu Yuan and Xiang Wei were separated by millions of miles, appearing tiny to each other, yet in their eyes, they shone like blazing stars.
In a competition between cultivators, size didn't matter; it was the strength of their life force that counted.
With a smile that was not quite a smile, the Master of the Heart Cliff looked at them, his voice ringing in their ears, "This is just a duel. You are not allowed to use any external items. Stop when it's appropriate. I will intervene if necessary."
As the master, he had boundless divine powers and could easily intervene in a duel between Star Lords.
"Can Xiang Wei win?"
"It's hard to say. Xiang Wei's strength is average among us. His comprehension of the Earth Law is formidable, comparable to Tiger Biao."
"Mingjian has a great reputation. Many believed him to be the top talent in the universe before Wu Yuan."
"Talent is one thing, strength is another. How long has he been cultivating?"
"According to the information I received, he once fought against a strong star lord in the Time-Space Realm and came out unscathed. He shouldn't be weak."
"Since the Master says he's the best, it must not be groundless."
"Let's see." The other eleven geniuses exchanged their thoughts.
Some believed that Wu Yuan would be stronger, especially since the Master had spoken. However, others felt that Mingjian lacked significant achievements and was too young to defeat Xiang Wei, who excelled in defense.
"It's about to start."
The leader, a girl in a purple robe, suddenly said, "Stop talking. Let's focus. If Mingjian is really powerful, it will benefit our Taiyuan Divine Court."
The geniuses stopped chatting and focused on the upcoming battle.
Inside the paradise world...
"Mingjian, don't you want to fight with your Avatar?" Xiang Wei said solemnly, "You're just a Qi Refiner. Do you want to spar with your main body? Be careful not to perish."
Xiang Wei was a god.
In his opinion, Wu Yuan had just arrived, so his Avatar must have come with him.
"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Xiang Wei. It seems like your Avatar is also participating. Naturally, I will also use my main body." Wu Yuan smiled, "Rest assured, with the Master watching, I won't use the power of my Avatar."
Firstly, with the Master overseeing, the chance of anything going wrong was extremely low.
Secondly, Wu Yuan was confident in his own strength.
"Okay." Seeing Xiang Wei's indifferent attitude, he didn't bother saying more and immediately made a move.
He might not acknowledge Wu Yuan verbally, but in a real fight, he would give it his all, not daring to be the slightest bit negligent.
Boom! Xiang Wei's figure instantly transformed into a towering giant, draped in heavy armor. At the same time, he grew nine arms, six of which wielded long sticks, and three held shields, as his life force continued to surge and rise rapidly.
In almost the blink of an eye, he reached the level of a Tier Seven Celestial.
Like a towering mountain, he quickly closed in on Wu Yuan.
"He's already using his highest-level secret technique from the start?" Wu Yuan muttered to himself.
If they didn't unleash their ultimate techniques, the Celestial-level cultivators would generally only be at the peak of the Star Lord level.
Previously, the Master had mentioned that the avatars of the Heavenly Lords would be at this level.
But once they used their highest-level secret techniques, their basic strength would increase significantly, and these peerless geniuses would naturally become much stronger.
According to Wu Yuan's estimation, Xiang Wei should be able to unleash the power of a Triple Celestial.
Of course, this was just his estimate.
"I heard you're good at Time and Space."
"Since the Master values you so highly, let me test your mettle." Xiang Wei's figure seemed to cause the void to tremble as he approached Wu Yuan.
At this moment, he was already close to Wu Yuan, and his body was surrounded by strands of earthy-yellow airflow, covering millions of miles, ready for any defense.
"Aren't you going to make a move? Do you plan to surrender directly?" Xiang Wei stared at Wu Yuan with a pair of eyes.
A hint of doubt flashed in his mind.
In his view, Wu Yuan was just a Qi Refiner. Even if he was powerful, he should have deployed his weapons or treasures early on.
"I don't care about you."
"If you're seeking death, I'll grant your wish." Xiang Wei's eyes flashed with coldness as he swung his six long sticks directly, causing even the void to tremble.
The six long sticks fiercely smashed towards Wu Yuan, their momentum overwhelming.
Their comprehension of the Earth Law granted them immense power.
However, throughout the entire ordeal, Wu Yuan's body didn't move a bit. But whether it was Xiang Wei, who unleashed his full power, or the group of observing geniuses, their eyes were filled with astonishment.
Because at the moment when those raging long sticks were about to touch Wu Yuan, he disappeared into thin air.
Yes!
Under the violent energy shock and even attacks that could directly affect high-dimensional space, he vanished into thin air.
Swish! Wu Yuan reappeared hundreds of millions of miles away, exactly where Xiang Wei had stood when he first entered the paradise battlefield.
Wu Yuan smiled as he looked at Xiang Wei, who was full of surprise. A slight difference was that Wu Yuan's life force had also become formidable, indicating that he had also cast the "Origin Law Sacrifice".
His magical power had reached the level of a Tier Seven Celestial.
"It's no wonder you're the top genius of the Taiyuan Divine Court. The attack just now was probably no less than that of the Southern Sound Immortal." Wu Yuan muttered to himself.
Even in the distant Witch Universe, the Southern Sound Immortal was highly respected.
Xiang Wei's strength should be comparable to that of the Southern Sound Immortal.
"Impossible!"
"This! This... You can actually step into the Void Space?" Xiang Wei stared at Wu Yuan with wide eyes, full of shock, still unable to believe what had just happened.
"The Void Space."
"This!"
"Even with the highest-level Burst Secret Technique, Mingjian's magical power is only at the level of a Tier Seven Celestial." Several geniuses outside the arena were completely shocked.
Material Space Layer, Space Fragment Layer, Space Turbulence Layer, Void Space Layer, and Space-Time Interweaving Layer.
These were the five major spatial dimensions known to countless immortals and gods.
For example, the Space Turbulence Layer was extremely difficult to cross. It often required a Star Lord to break through with brute force or a Space Star Lord.
To enter a higher-dimensional space, besides comprehending the Dao, the requirements for magical power were also extremely high.
For these geniuses, if they didn't use the highest-level Burst Secret Technique, none of them could step into the Space Turbulence Layer.
As for the Void Space Layer.
Either one had the strength of a sovereign to enter it, or one was a Space Star Lord.
"Only a Space Star Lord can enter, relying on the magical power of a Star Lord and the complete integration of the Universe Law to enter." The purple-robed girl watching from outside whispered, "Mingjian's burst, even his magical power is far inferior to that of a Star Lord, which indicates his high level of understanding in space."
"It's very likely that he has comprehended the Universe Law or reached the Ninth Level of Space-Time True Meaning."
"With the space comprehension close to that of a sovereign, combined with the magical power at the level of a Star Lord, he was able to step into the Void Space Layer."
"Standing invincible in a higher-dimensional space." The purple-robed girl shook her head slightly. "Xiang Wei has lost. Even if I or Hu Biao make a move, it's impossible to defeat Mingjian."
A silence fell.
These geniuses looked at Wu Yuan in shock.
Inside the paradise world...
"The Void Space Layer?" Xiang Wei's heart turned cold. Though he didn't hear the purple-robed girl's analysis.
With his strength and vision, he could roughly analyze that defeating Wu Yuan was almost impossible.
Unless Wu Yuan actively sought death.
This is the terror of practitioners who excel in space, especially those who comprehend the laws of the universe.
Occupying an additional spatial dimension is tantamount to invincibility.
"Mingjian, I can't defeat you." Xiang Wei said in a low voice, "But in the battle for supremacy in the cosmic realm, fleeing alone is useless. You must show your frontal attack power."
"If you're capable, defeat me."
With a wave of his hand, his six long sticks turned into nine shields, perfectly combined with the swirling earthy yellow aura around him.
For a moment, the space seemed to stagnate.
However, his own movements also became extremely difficult, indicating that this was a very special defensive technique.
If Xiang Wei was like a towering mountain just now, he now seemed like a vast expanse of land.
Wanting to defeat a mountain is not difficult, but wanting to break open the entire earth?
"Xiang Wei still refuses to admit defeat?"
"He must have some lingering regret. He rushed into battle, but the result turned out like this." Those observing geniuses whispered to themselves, understanding Xiang Wei's thoughts.
In a sparring match, being forced to defend with all one's might means one has already lost.
However, Xiang Wei couldn't let go of his pride. He probably wanted to withstand a few more rounds of attacks to prove his strength before admitting defeat.
And regarding this...
The Master of the Heart Cliff didn't say a word because Xiang Wei and Wu Yuan hadn't actually clashed yet, and their life forces were still at their peak.
But in the next moment...
"Hmm?" The calm Master of the Heart Cliff's eyes flashed with surprise.
"What?"
"This!"
"Him!" The faces of the purple-robed girl, the tiger-headed youth, and other geniuses changed drastically as they stared dumbfoundedly at the scene in the paradise world.
Because!!
At this moment, around Mingjian, dense and numerous immortal swords appeared, nearly a thousand of them, each exuding an incredibly terrifying aura.
When thousands of swords were connected to each other to form a sword array, the gathered power emitted a terrifying sword intent.
"With nine core life-bound flying swords."
"Seven hundred and twenty high-grade immortal artifacts as support, forming a thousand-sword array. It's really powerful." Wu Yuan immersed himself in the sword array he had triggered.
Like the battles of immortals and gods, few used too many treasures. This was mainly because manipulating them consumed a lot of mental energy and made it difficult to fight for long.
Even with Wu Yuan's extreme mental state and the peak-level comprehension of the Dao, it was extremely difficult to trigger so many flying swords at once, and he felt immense pressure.
"If it's a life-and-death battle, there's no time for me to leisurely display such a large-scale sword array." Wu Yuan smiled slightly, looking towards Xiang Wei in the distance.
But the other party unexpectedly gave up the initiative and remained in place?
That's purely being a sitting duck, only able to take hits.
"Boom!" The massive thousand-sword array completely condensed, and under Wu Yuan's magical power, it eventually formed a nearly transparent time and space divine sword that stretched for thousands of zhang.
"Go!"
Wu Yuan pointed from afar, and the time and space divine sword burst forth instantly, turning into a rainbow light merging into the higher-dimensional space. In the next moment, it had already struck in front of Xiang Wei.
Fast!
Fast to the extreme, so fast that Xiang Wei felt a flash of light before his eyes, and the time and space divine sword had already struck in front of him.
"What is this?" A hint of horror flashed in Xiang Wei's eyes. He felt as if the heavens and earth in front of him were about to split apart.
The Sixth Form of the Space-Time Nine Swords - Heaven-Cleaving Sword.
The previous five forms of the Space-Time Nine Swords were mostly both offensive and defensive, but the sixth form was purely offensive, pursuing the ultimate in attack power.
Because anyone who can master the sixth form of the Space-Time Nine Swords usually has terrifying escape methods, making it impossible for ordinary opponents to pursue them, so weapons and treasures naturally focus on attacking.
"Nine shields, guard the boundary!"
Xiang Wei gritted his teeth as layers of earth runes appeared on the nine shields he held in his hand, actively meeting this sword.
"Boom~"
In a colossal collision like the splitting of heaven and earth, Xiang Wei instantly retreated backward but still managed to barely withstand this sword.
After all, he also had the strength of a triple star monarch and was extremely skilled in defense, so he wasn't completely blasted apart by a single sword.
"He moved."
"Xiang Wei's defense is much stronger than Nan Yin's, but my attacks as a Qi Refining Avatar are far inferior to those of Mu Long." Wu Yuan instantly judged Xiang Wei's defensive limit.
The Qi Refining Avatar excelled in being mysterious and unpredictable, unafraid even when besieged by hundreds or thousands of same-level geniuses. However, they ultimately lacked great Dao imprints and perfectly integrated ultimate burst techniques, so their attacks were not as powerful as those of the Body Refining Avatar.
And the Body Refining Avatar excelled in direct confrontation.
The two avatars each had their own strengths.
"However, being able to withstand one of my swords, can he withstand ten swords? A hundred swords?" Wu Yuan remained calm.
For other immortals, such an outburst, manipulating a thousand-sword array, probably couldn't be done several times.
The consumption of magical power was too great.
But he was at the peak level, and although his magical power and strength were equivalent to other first-tier immortals after triggering the ultimate burst technique, his endurance in prolonged battles was ten times greater than theirs.
"Go!" With a thought, Wu Yuan manipulated the time and space divine sword to strike again and again.
"What a violent attack."
"Forcing Xiang Wei to retreat step by step."
"Xiang Wei is defending with all his might, but he still can't hold it? Mingjian's attacks are too terrifying."
"He's manipulating a thousand-sword array so effortlessly?" These observing geniuses became more and more shocked as they watched.
Too frightening.
Wu Yuan's attack seemed simple, but the simplest methods applied to the extreme were the most terrifying.
In the blink of an eye, Wu Yuan consecutively struck Xiang Wei more than ten times.
"Break!"
With a mutter from Wu Yuan, the time and space divine sword carried an incredibly fierce momentum, finally completely breaking through Xiang Wei's defense, sending him flying backward.
The shields in his hand almost slipped away, falling heavily to the ground. His eyes were full of disappointment, but he quickly regained his composure and said, "I concede."
As the core genius of Taiyuan Island, he wasn't going to be petulant.
To lose was to lose.
"Brother Xiang Wei, you've shown great skill." Wu Yuan smiled. He also admired the defensive techniques Xiang Wei employed.
If it were him...
He admitted that if he were standing in place enduring such a violent attack, he probably wouldn't last as long before fleeing.
Quickly.
Swish! Swish! Wu Yuan and Xiang Wei tidied up their treasures, their life forces returning to normal, and turned into two streaks of light flying out of the paradise world.
They arrived beside the Master of the Heart Cliff and the other eleven geniuses.
"Xiang Wei has lost."
"Any of you eleven want to challenge Mingjian?" The Master of the Heart Cliff scanned the other geniuses with his gaze.
Silence.
The leader of the group, the purple-robed girl, and the tiger-headed youth glanced at each other and remained silent.
No confidence!
Although they were all extremely confident, they had seen Wu Yuan's strength and felt that the probability of losing was very high.
The key was, they couldn't win!
"Alright, then I announce that from today onwards, Taiyuan Island's top spot belongs to Mingjian," the Master of the Heart Cliff said slowly. "Baiyi, you're now second."
"Hubiao, you're third, and the rest of you will be ranked accordingly lower."
"Yes," all twelve geniuses respectfully replied.
Wu Yuan also understood that competition was everywhere. Even among this group of top geniuses on Taiyuan Island, competition would still exist.
Not to mention.
Geniuses were all proud. Who would willingly fall behind? Who would want to be last?
"Mingjian."
"Although you're the youngest among us, you're now the top-ranked on Taiyuan Island. Every one of the million members on the island should address you respectfully as 'Big Brother,'" the Master of the Heart Cliff said. "If nothing unexpected happens, when the Universal Path opens in the future, you will lead our God Court's team in the Universal Path."
"Big Brother? Team leader?" Wu Yuan nodded gently.
The stronger one's strength, the greater their responsibility. Since he had joined the God Court as a Qi Refining Avatar, he naturally had to bear some responsibility.
"Baiyi has comprehended the Law of Cause and Effect to the ninth realm. She was previously the number one genius in the God Court," the Master of the Heart Cliff introduced, pointing to the girl in the purple robe. "She hasn't been cultivating for long, only a little over three hundred thousand years."
"Mingjian Senior Brother," the girl in the purple robe smiled softly.
"Baiyi Junior Sister," Wu Yuan clasped his hands and was also secretly surprised. Comprehending the Law of Cause and Effect?
No wonder he felt a peculiar aura when they first met. Such talents had the potential to become the strongest geniuses in the future.
"Hubiao has comprehended the Law of Life," the Master of the Heart Cliff pointed to the tiger-headed youth. "Similarly, he's reached the ninth realm."
Wu Yuan and Hubiao also nodded to each other.
Consider it an acquaintance.
"The rest of you, get to know each other on your own," said the Master of the Heart Cliff.
Wu Yuan nodded. He also understood that although these twelve geniuses had all reached the pinnacle of the Star Monarch realm, there were subtle differences among them.
Only Baiyi and Hubiao had reached the pinnacle of the Star Monarch's limit of comprehension.
"Mingjian, you stay on Taiyuan Island for now. When the True Saint summons you, I'll come to get you. It shouldn't be too long," the Master of the Heart Cliff communicated.
"Yes," Wu Yuan replied.
"You can spar and compete with each other, but you're all members of our God Court. Externally, you must unite," the Master of the Heart Cliff glanced at everyone. "The Universal Path will open soon. Seize the last time to cultivate. Being born in this era is your fortune."
"Seizing opportunities, the probability of becoming a Sovereign will greatly increase, and there's even hope of eventually becoming a Dominator."
"If you miss the opportunity, don't regret it in the future," said the Master of the Heart Cliff.
"Yes," Wu Yuan, Baiyi, Hubiao, and the other twelve all respectfully replied.
Phew!
The Master of the Heart Cliff took a step and disappeared into thin air.
"Mingjian Senior Brother."
"Haha, Senior Brother is the youngest but so powerful. I admire you. My name is Teng Chengpeng..."
"Mingjian Senior Brother, I'm..." These geniuses gathered around Wu Yuan, each introducing themselves.
They seemed quite enthusiastic.
Baiyi and Hubiao, the strongest ones, one was chilly but not exactly cold, while the other was more enthusiastic.
Quickly, Wu Yuan became acquainted with these top geniuses of the God Court.
"It seems that they're all quite friendly and don't reject me," Wu Yuan thought to himself. "But, knowing people's faces doesn't mean knowing their hearts. Let's take it slowly in the future."
At least, he could maintain a peaceful surface.
"This Mingjian Senior Brother is quite polite, not as arrogant as I imagined."
"He seems like a good person."
"I heard before that when he was in the Space-Time Dao Realm, he had conflicts with the friends from the God Court. Now, it seems the rumors were untrue." These geniuses greeted Wu Yuan while secretly exchanging information with each other.
"We still need to maintain good relations with Big Brother."
"Big Brother's ability to fight head-on might not be as strong as the most powerful geniuses like Yuxiang, but his ability to save his life is extremely terrifying."
"Yeah, on the Universal Path, we might have to rely on Big Brother Mingjian for our lives."
"With Big Brother Mingjian's talent, he's probably going to become a Dominator in the future. Even if we can't please him, at least let's not annoy him." These geniuses were all so smart.
Almost instantly, they all recognized the reality!
Naturally, they were willing to befriend Wu Yuan.
Shortly after.
Wu Yuan dispersed with Baiyi, Hubiao, and the others, and they all returned to their respective palaces.
Wu Yuan also entered the only palace without an owner and imprinted his life mark.
From now on, this palace belonged to him.
The palace was vast, with all kinds of training grounds available, and a large number of servants at the level of Immortals and Gods.
Many external conditions were much better than those on the Space-Time Island.
"That's right."
"This is the core of Taiyuan Island, where the God Court cultivates the potential talents to become Sovereigns." Wu Yuan thought to himself, "As the core of a holy land, it's normal for the cultivation conditions to be good."
Looking across the entire universe, even in other holy lands, it would be hard to find better conditions.
"It's just a pity."
"Most of them are not very useful to me." Wu Yuan smiled faintly.
Just like the Physical Refining Avatar, why wasn't he summoned by the Witch Court?
Because, at his level, he was close to the level of a Sovereign in terms of comprehension of the Dao. Most external auxiliary methods were ineffective, and the path of cultivation relied more on one's own comprehension and accumulation over time.
However.
Staying and cultivating within Taiyuan Island would at least be safe enough.
Phew!
Wu Yuan entered the meditation hall and quietly began to cultivate, waiting for the summons from the True Saint.
... "Haha, this Mingjian is not bad."
"Amazing!" In the most core temple of Taiyuan's True Saints, there were several towering figures.
Their aura was vast and majestic, with a hint of eternity. The Master of the Heart Cliff was just one of them.
Obviously.
They were all great Dominators, the actual rulers of the entire God Court.
At this moment, the three Dominators were watching the battle footage of Wu Yuan and Xiang Wei.
"In terms of direct strength, Mingjian is still weaker than the most powerful geniuses like Mulong and Wu Yuan," a red-robed Dominator said, "but his Divine Sense should be very strong to be able to control the Thousand Sword Array."
"Weak in direct strength?"
"But his ability to save his life is strong!" Another black-armored Dominator smiled, "Mulong, Wu Yuan, if they encounter the strongest geniuses in the Universal Path, they would probably have to flee in panic. But Mingjian can handle it easily."
"Yeah, except for the two who have already mastered the complete Space Law, the other strongest geniuses probably can't do anything to Mingjian."
"Although Mingjian's direct strength is weaker, he also has a chance to claim the title of Saint." The Master of the Heart Cliff smiled.
Wanting to claim the title of Saint.
Naturally, the stronger the strength, the more hopeful, but it's never absolute. In the eyes of the three Dominators, Wu Yuan's Qi Refining Avatar also had some hope.
"Can the Original Hall be opened?" The Master of the Heart Cliff smiled.
"Agree!"
"Agree." The other two Dominators who had witnessed Wu Yuan's strength directly agreed.
...Taiyuan Island has millions of geniuses, and those with lower strength naturally have various dangerous trial tasks.
But Wu Yuan, the senior brother of Taiyuan Island, did not receive any trial tasks proactively.
He rarely went to collect various cultivation resources, just quietly cultivating.
At his level, the years of cultivation passed very quickly, and a single seclusion might last for thousands of years.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye.
Wu Yuan's Qi Refining Avatar had been in Taiyuan Island for over two thousand years.
One day.
"Mingjian, come out immediately, and follow me to see the True Saint." Wu Yuan, who was in seclusion in the palace's quiet room, heard the voice of the Master of the Heart Cliff echoing in his mind.
"Finally, the wait is over?" Wu Yuan opened his eyes, feeling a sense of emotion.
He had waited for two thousand years.
Swoosh!
Wu Yuan flew out of the quiet room.

Chapter 470: Taiyuan True Saint
Flying out of the quiet room to the outside of the palace.
At a glance, Wu Yuan saw two figures standing in the void.
One was none other than the Master of the Heart Cliff, shrouded in black mist, with an indistinct face.
The other was a towering figure, about a hundred feet tall, clad in black armor. He had a pair of wings on his back, emitting an aura like the vast starry sky, overlooking Wu Yuan.
In terms of aura intensity, it was no less than the Master of the Heart Cliff.
Obviously, he was also a master.
"Such a large body? A master?" Wu Yuan was secretly surprised. Although powerful body refiners could grow to tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of feet during battles, that was only during combat.
In daily life, they mostly maintained a normal human height.
Even beast-form cultivators like Tiger Biao generally kept a humanoid appearance.
"Mingjian, I've seen the two masters." Wu Yuan respectfully bowed.
"Haha, your perception is quite good to be able to judge that I am a master at a glance," the black-armored giant laughed, his voice echoing in the heavens and earth.
The palace where Wu Yuan resided covered tens of thousands of miles, and with the array restrictions in place, the sound didn't spread far.
Therefore, the geniuses in other palaces didn't notice.
"Mingjian's understanding of the Dao is close to the level of a sovereign, naturally he can judge," the Master of the Heart Cliff glanced at the black-armored giant, then turned to Wu Yuan, "Mingjian, how do you feel about the two thousand years in Taiyuan Island?"
"Very good, the cultivation environment in Taiyuan Island is better than that of the Space-time Island," Wu Yuan said.
During these two thousand years, Wu Yuan did not blindly cultivate alone. He also explored many inheritances and treasures through the Taiyuan Realm.
Like the secret techniques at the Sovereign level, and even secret techniques created at the level of a master, there were numerous within the Taiyuan Divine Court, far more than the various types of secret techniques on the Space-time Island.
There were also many treasures that could be easily obtained through the Taiyuan Realm, as long as the corresponding divine crystal treasures were provided.
After all, although the highest existence of the Taiyuan Divine Court might not be stronger than the Space-time Dao Lord, there were many more sovereigns and masters, and the territory was vast, so naturally, there were also many accumulated treasures and common secret techniques.
Although Wu Yuan had the "Space-time Manual", he had exchanged for many powerful secret techniques for free through his own authority over the past two thousand years, as a reference for cultivation.
The most important thing was the environment.
There were many strong people in the headquarters of the Taiyuan Divine Court, and Wu Yuan often sparred with the other twelve geniuses.
Occasionally, he would also go to other areas of the Divine Court headquarters and spar with many powerful Star Lords in the "Divine Court Arena."
Through constant battles and sparring.
And then continuous reflection and enlightenment, Wu Yuan's progress over the past two thousand years was faster than when he was on the Space-time Island.
And after sparring with other Star Lords time and time again, the name of Mingjian became even more renowned in the Taiyuan Realms, and most of the superpowers in the Divine Court knew of his existence.
"Well, as long as you feel good," the Master of the Heart Cliff smiled, "I thought the True Saint would summon you soon, but I didn't expect it to be two thousand years."
"No problem," Wu Yuan smiled.
"This is Master Shanjin, one of the eight great masters of our Divine Court. In terms of strength, he is no less than me. He will take you to meet the True Saint," the Master of the Heart Cliff introduced the black-armored giant standing beside him.
"Mingjian, I've met Master Shanjin," Wu Yuan bowed again.
In the entire Taiyuan Divine Court, including all its territories, there were tens of thousands of sovereigns, but only eight masters.
It can be seen how high the status of the masters is.
Even when they descended into other great realms and were suppressed by the origin of the great realms, the masters could still erupt with the peak power of a sovereign.
"Little guy, don't be nervous. To reach the residence of the True Saint, a master must take you there," Master Shanjin looked down at Wu Yuan and smiled, "In the history of the Divine Court, most of those so-called strongest geniuses rarely had the chance to meet the True Saint when they were at the level of Star Lord or above."
"Most sovereigns, when they just became sovereigns, could only meet the True Saint once and receive a blessing," Master Shanjin said, "I also know about you from the intelligence and have observed you personally. You are indeed outstanding, even more so than I was in my youth."
"The praise of a master," Wu Yuan said modestly.
"Wu Yuan, you may not know Master Shanjin," the Master of the Heart Cliff smiled, "When Master Shanjin was young, he was also known as the strongest genius in the entire river of time and space. He once roamed countless Immortals and Gods without an equal."
"And, you and him are somewhat similar," the Master of the Heart Cliff said.
"Hmm?" Wu Yuan felt slightly surprised.
"In the previous cycle of the Celestial Domain Path 11.1 billion years ago, Master Shanjin was only a Star Lord and also participated in the battle," Master of the Heart Cliff chuckled.
"The previous cycle?" Wu Yuan looked surprised at Master Shanjin.
In that case, the cultivation years of this Master Shanjin weren't too long.
Living for only 11 billion years, for a master, he was considered quite young.
"Haha, in the end, I only ranked in the top ten," Master Shanjin laughed. "I'm still far from obtaining the title of True Saint. You have to work hard."
Wu Yuan was secretly amazed.
Top ten?
This was a competition among the peerless geniuses of the entire universe. Being able to enter the top ten was already terrifying.
"That's because your cultivation years are short," Master of the Heart Cliff shook his head, then looked at Wu Yuan again. "Later, in that cycle of the Celestial Domain Path, numerous sovereigns emerged among countless geniuses, but to this day, only two True Saints have been born."
"One is from the Abyss Demon Race, who eventually obtained the title of True Saint."
"The other one is Master Shanjin," Master of the Heart Cliff said.
Wu Yuan listened quietly.
Different eras had different glories and their own genius legends.
In that era, Master Shanjin was probably as famous across the realms as Yuxiang and himself were in this era.
But after billions of years, countless beings had perished, and the younger generation knew very little.
"Mingjian, let's go."
Master Shanjin stepped forward to Wu Yuan's side. "Don't let the True Saint wait too long."
Buzz~
The surrounding space seemed to distort, an invisible force enveloped Wu Yuan, and the two of them disappeared from Taiyuan Island in an instant.
... It wasn't flying.
It was the continuous change of spatial dimensions. Wu Yuan could clearly feel himself breaking through layer after layer of spatial fragments, spatial turbulence layers... until the intertwining layer of space-time.
If the spatial void layer could be sensed to some extent by Wu Yuan's strength, then the layer of space-time intertwining was extremely strange. Here, space and time became distorted.
Interweaving and separating, Wu Yuan could keenly feel the rapid changes in the flow of time.
The perception of many of the origins of the Dao in the darkness was extremely vague.
"This way." Master Shanjin led Wu Yuan forward in the layer of space-time intertwining.
In just a few breaths.
The two arrived in front of an ancient palace. The palace was not tall, covering only a few hundred miles square. On both sides of the palace, there were various forms of exotic beasts lying down, some with bodies as huge as lions and tigers magnified a hundred or a thousand times, and some with small bodies like butterflies.
There were also some exotic beasts that Wu Yuan had never seen before.
But all these exotic beasts had extremely powerful auras, but they all had their eyes closed.
They lined up on both sides of the palace gate, numbering in the tens of thousands.
The pressure they gathered was suffocating for Wu Yuan. While he could easily resist the pressure of a single exotic beast, with so many of them? The pressure surpassed even that of a master.
"These exotic beasts?" Wu Yuan's eyes flashed with confusion, unable to help but ask, "Master Shanjin, are they all still alive?"
Although Wu Yuan's Qi Refining Avatar couldn't use the Dao of Creation, it had already reached the level of the Dao Domain in the pure law of death. After the initial surprise, he also had some insights.
"They're all dead!"
"This is the Taiyuan Palace." Master Shanjin said in a low voice, "It's the residence of the True Saint, eternal and indestructible. The nearly ten thousand exotic beasts you see, all of them were sovereigns who once followed the True Saint during the previous cycle of the world's reincarnation."
Wu Yuan was shocked to hear this, and he scanned those exotic beasts again.
They were all sovereigns?
"The cycle of heaven and earth, all things are sacrificed! These sovereigns took refuge in the abode of the True Saint, hoping to avoid the calamity of reincarnation," Master Shanjin sighed. "However, although the True Saint can shelter their bodies eternally, they cannot free their spirits from reincarnation."
"In the end, only their bodies remain."
"Not one of them survived."
Wu Yuan listened intently.
He vaguely saw, in the endless ages before the creation of heaven and earth, countless powerful beings struggled here, trying to use the power of the highest existence to escape the suffering of reincarnation.
Unfortunately, they all failed in the end.
"Mingjian."
"Follow me into the palace." Master Shanjin said, leading Wu Yuan directly into the palace through the main gate.
Inside the palace, there was first a long corridor, with endless powerful figures of exotic beasts on one side.
They were also exotic beasts.
They were also closed-eyed, seeming to have died, but the aura they emitted was even more powerful, all with a hint of eternal charm, which was astonishing.
There were not many exotic beasts in the corridor, only fourteen.
"These are all deceased masters." Master Shanjin sighed. "The True Saint wanted to shelter them and welcomed them into the interior of the palace, but still failed."
"Masters."
"They are the pinnacle of the river of life. Similar to me, they can sense the existence of the river of time and space. It seems that with a little effort, they can completely break free from the shackles of the river. But time and time again, all attempts have been in vain," Master Shanjin sighed, a hint of loneliness flashing in his eyes.
Wu Yuan listened silently. He could feel the longing in Master Shanjin's heart.
Master Shanjin led Wu Yuan through the corridor, passing by a side hall where many powerful treasures were suspended.
Finally, they arrived in front of the main hall.
"True Saint." Master Shanjin stood in front of the main hall, respectfully saluting to show his respect.
"True Saint?" Wu Yuan looked inside the hall and felt empty. There was no figure at all.
Suddenly.
As if out of thin air, or perhaps Wu Yuan's vision blurred, a very slender figure in a white robe appeared. His eyes were deep, as if containing the vast universe.
He stood in the hall.
Boom!
Wu Yuan felt his vision change in an instant. The white-robed figure in front of him seemed to become endless and magnificent. Even though he had seen many super beings, including masters, before.
But none of them were comparable to the figure in front of him.
He seemed to be the ultimate of heaven and earth.
Time, space, causality, life... Under the Great Dao, all the paths and laws Wu Yuan knew seemed to converge completely on this white-robed figure.
There was no cause and effect, no time, everything returned to eternity.
Endless magnificence!
Supreme!
Even Wu Yuan's spiritual will, comparable to the peak of a Star Lord, was completely suppressed in an instant.
In the presence of such an exalted figure, Wu Yuan's thoughts and consciousness completely stagnated.
This was purely a manifestation of the difference in the level of life, a difference that could not be counted.
Even.
If this state continued, Wu Yuan's cognition and consciousness would gradually distort, gradually transforming towards the inexplicable aura released by the slender figure in the white robe.
Because, the white-robed figure would become the 'supreme ultimate' in Wu Yuan's cognition, and it could no longer be changed.
"True Saint?"
"You, have you descended in your true form?" Master Shanjin was minimally affected, equally shocked.
Supreme beings often did not manifest their true selves in the river of time and space.
Whoo!
Fortunately, the special state inside the palace lasted for a very short time, just a blink of an eye.
Hum~ Wu Yuan felt his mind go blank.
His consciousness quickly returned to normal, and his thoughts began to operate normally again.
The figure in the white robe in the palace had become like an ordinary middle-aged man, but he seemed to be standing outside endless and distant time and space, in a different dimensional plane from Wu Yuan and the others.
Wu Yuan's heart surged with waves of shock. Just thinking about his state just now made his heart palpitate.
Is this the supreme?
"Shanjin, wait outside the hall for now," the middle-aged man in the white robe said faintly, as if his voice could penetrate deep into people's souls. "I want to talk to Mingjian alone. He will come out later."
"Yes," Master Shanjin said.
Although he was extremely shocked, in his memory, when he had shown remarkable performance in the Universe Path, he had also been summoned by the True Saint afterwards.
But he had only exchanged a few words, received a treasure, and was sent away.
But the True Saint wanted to talk to Mingjian alone?
Master Shanjin realized that Mingjian might be somewhat special.
In fact, he did not know that Mingjian was just a Nascent Soul.
Whoo!
"Mingjian, do not be rude. It is very rare for the True Saint to talk to a mortal being in person," Master Shanjin instructed.
"Yes," Wu Yuan said.
Swoosh!
Master Shanjin left, leaving only the slender figure in the white robe and Wu Yuan.
"Come into the hall," the figure in the white robe said faintly.
Wu Yuan obediently entered the hall.
As soon as he entered the hall, he felt a slight shock in his heart because he sensed that the connection between himself and his Nascent Soul was rapidly weakening.
It was as if it had been in the Divine Creation Temple years ago.
However, the connection between the two Nascent Souls had not been completely severed.
"Is this main hall also a very special place?" Wu Yuan thought to himself. As he entered the hall, he respectfully said, "Greetings, True Saint."
Inside the hall.
Wu Yuan still felt that the figure in the white robe was infinitely distant from himself.
"Just a Nascent Soul alone could defeat Mu Long, you are very outstanding," the figure in the white robe looked down at Wu Yuan. "To maintain your true nature in front of my true self is enough to show your uniqueness."
"It's luck," Wu Yuan said continuously.
He did not find it strange. The existence of the True Saint of Taiyuan naturally knew his details.
However, Wu Yuan was also very shocked. Did the True Saint's true body descend just now?
"Your talent is very high, and you are hopeful of transcending in the future. You seem to be just an Immortal now, but in fact, you can completely treat yourself as a Star Lord," the True Saint of Taiyuan said slowly. "However, your involvement is also significant. Originally, I was unwilling to accept you into the Taiyuan Divine Court."
"Unwilling? Then?" Wu Yuan was puzzled.
"It was the Ancestor Witch who gave me an offer I couldn't refuse," the True Saint of Taiyuan looked down at Wu Yuan. "You lucky little guy."

ps: First update
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 471 Spatial Dao Body
Ancestor Witch?
Wu Yuan was slightly stunned. Was it arranged by the Ancestor Witch for his Nascent Soul to enter the Taiyuan Divine Court?
He couldn't help but remember what Master Kuachi had said. The Ancestor Witch had reached some kind of agreement with the True Saint of Taiyuan.
At that time, he thought it was an agreement between the two sides regarding the positioning of his two Nascent Souls in the two major forces.
Now looking at it.
It seemed that the Ancestor Witch had paid some price to allow his Nascent Soul to enter the core of the Taiyuan Divine Court.
"The Ancestor Witch who came out to talk to me is extraordinarily powerful, and I am inferior to him," the True Saint of Taiyuan looked down at Wu Yuan and said slowly. "It's lucky for you to be valued by him, but whether you can ultimately reach the highest level depends on your own efforts... Relying solely on external opportunities won't make you reach the highest level."
Wu Yuan already understood that everything behind this was indeed manipulated by the Ancestor Witch.
But which Ancestor Witch was it?
The Ancestor Witch of Houtu?
"That's why Master Xincliff promised that if you are willing in the future, you can return to the Witch Court at any time without any burden of responsibility," the True Saint of Taiyuan said. "Because the price you were originally supposed to pay has been paid by the Ancestor Witch."
Wu Yuan listened.
To receive, one must give. Initially, he was puzzled. Was the Taiyuan Divine Court really so kind?
Now it seemed that it wasn't that simple.
"But since I made the promise, I will naturally spare no effort to cultivate you," the True Saint of Taiyuan said slowly. "Even this time, I made the true self return specifically for you."
"Thank you, True Saint," Wu Yuan said respectfully.
"No need to thank me."
"My help to you firstly includes the environment of the Taiyuan Divine Court, which can conceal the matters of your two Nascent Souls from the Immortal Court, making it impossible for the Celestial Court to investigate," the True Saint of Taiyuan said. "You were originally in my Taiyuan Divine Court lineage, so this is natural."
Wu Yuan nodded involuntarily.
Yes, if his Nascent Soul joined some other sacred land forces, it would easily attract prying and deduction, after all, his revealed talent was too monstrous.
Only by joining the Taiyuan Divine Court could he avoid attracting attention.
"The second help is the Great Dao Mark," the True Saint of Taiyuan smiled.
"Great Dao Mark?" Wu Yuan was surprised.
Each supreme existence can only divide up to nine Great Dao Marks to mortal and long-river lives.
Therefore.
Supreme beings do not easily bestow them.
"In the vast universe, although there are some supreme existences, most of them no longer have Great Dao Marks in their hands," the True Saint of Taiyuan said slowly. "The Great Dao Marks suitable for you are even rarer... I only have three Great Dao Marks left."
"It was originally left for some talented geniuses, but now, I will give you one."
"Your Nascent Soul is already quite powerful. With this Great Dao Mark, your hope of becoming a Dominator in the future will be even greater. The Ancestor Witch did indeed consider you comprehensively," the True Saint of Taiyuan said.
Wu Yuan listened intently.
Ancestor Witch, oh Ancestor Witch!
What price did you pay to make the True Saint of Taiyuan willing to bestow a Great Dao Mark?
"In addition to the first two benefits, I will also prepare two more benefits for you," the True Saint of Taiyuan said. "However, you can only receive one of these two benefits after you pass the Nine Immortal Tribulations. It's useless for you now."
"And the last major benefit depends on your ability... At least when you have the peak power of a Sovereign, you will be eligible to try."
Wu Yuan silently remembered.
According to the information he knew, when supreme beings cultivate disciples and successors, they often bestow cultivation in stages.
Usually, there will be a certain amount of cultivation at the stage of mortal life.
When becoming a long-river life, there will be another stage of cultivation.
Just like his Nascent Soul in the Immortal Land, according to the words of the Divine Maker, when he becomes a Star Lord or Sovereign in the future, he can enter the Immortal Land again.
"Be prepared!"
Chapter 471 Spatial Dao Body
It's as if the True Saint of Taiyuan, standing outside the endless dimensions of time and space, suddenly pointed.
Hum~
Countless rays converged, instantly forming a silver droplet-shaped substance.
It flew from the fingertip of the True Saint of Taiyuan to the forehead of Wu Yuan in an instant.
Too fast.
Before Wu Yuan could react, the silver droplet landed directly on his forehead, then immediately melted into his body, completely dispersing.
In the silver droplet, there was a mysterious and vast power that instantly permeated every corner of Wu Yuan's body, every part of his twelve-fold primordial spirit, and even penetrated into the virtual world.
In an instant.
Everything about Wu Yuan's Nascent Soul was completely enveloped by the vast and majestic power contained in the silver droplet.
Countless patterns were being born and evolving in his flesh and primordial spirit, thereby changing the essence of Wu Yuan's life.
"Space!" Wu Yuan's consciousness remained clear.
He had already noticed.
The clarity of his perception of the origin of space.
It's continuously rising.
Even the fluctuations of the vast and unpredictable spatial avenues, which are vaguely located outside of the distant world, are becoming clearer!
In just a few breaths.
Wu Yuan's life aura seemed to have no change, but in fact, there had been earth-shaking changes internally.
The Nascent Soul had already transformed into a Spatial Dao Body.
"Spatial Dao Body." Wu Yuan felt the wonderful changes in himself, as if many of the previous confusions and bottlenecks in comprehending the avenues of time and space, the laws of space, were gradually being understood.
It's as if he suddenly had an epiphany.
Like before, when Wu Yuan's Nascent Soul cultivated on the Time and Space Island, the environment for cultivation was much better than that of the physical body Nascent Soul.
However, the progress in the avenues of time and space was much slower than that in the avenues of creation.
Why?
The most important reason is that the physical body Nascent Soul is a life-oriented body, and the comprehension and deduction of the laws of life and the avenues of creation are astonishingly fast.
Now.
With the help of the True Saint of Taiyuan, the Nascent Soul finally made up for this aspect.
It can be said that all aspects of the talents of the two Nascent Souls have truly reached their peak.
"The combination of the peak primordial spirit and the Dao Body will greatly increase the efficiency of enlightenment," Wu Yuan thought to himself. "With the Spatial Dao Body, the Nascent Soul's hope of becoming a Spatial Sovereign in the future will increase significantly, and the time it takes will also be greatly shortened."
Phew!
Wu Yuan slowly opened his eyes and said respectfully, "Thank you, True Saint, I am extremely grateful."
Although it was the Ancestor Witch who paid the price.
But Wu Yuan still felt grateful in his heart.
"Um."
The True Saint of Taiyuan looked down at Wu Yuan. "With many of your opportunities in mortal life reaching their peak, even if the Ancestor Witch personally came, I'm afraid there wouldn't be much he could do to help you."
"In more than three thousand years, in the Universal Path, you can only rely on yourself. Under the operation of the Heavenly Dao, we supreme beings can only sense a little, and cannot intervene."
"Although, if you continue to cultivate step by step, spending countless years, you will probably slowly cultivate to become a Dominator."
"But reaching the highest level from Dominator is a huge gap. The earlier you accumulate, the better," the True Saint of Taiyuan said. "Only in this way, there is a slight hope of success."
"I understand," Wu Yuan nodded.
Similar words were also said by the Time and Space Dao Lord, and even more severely, involving future life and death.
It is indeed difficult to reach the highest level from Dominator.
What he currently possesses, whether it's the Dao Body or the so-called dual extreme state, can only support him to the level of Dominator, which is the limit.
Highest level?
That was the essential transformation from River of Time Life to Supreme Life, and many external things were useless.
And in the Universal Path, there would be some great opportunities hidden, as the Time and Space Dao Lord once said.
Some opportunities, even supreme beings cannot bestow.
"Oh, right!"
"I've also prepared an inheritance for you, it's my insights into cultivation. Although it doesn't match your path, it might be helpful, so I'll give it to you." The True Saint of Taiyuan waved his hand.
Boom!
Instantly, a massive amount of information surged into Wu Yuan's mind, even causing his primordial spirit to momentarily dim.
The information was too vast.
Half a day later.
"Primordial Limitless," Wu Yuan's consciousness slightly regained clarity, and he quickly examined it.
This was the core inheritance, a supreme art that directly pointed to the 'Limitless Great Dao'.
Apart from this supreme art, there were many other secret techniques, such as soul techniques, close combat techniques, long-range spells, and so on, in astonishing numbers.
It was similar to the 'Chronicles of Time and Space' left by the Time and Space Dao Lord.
"Alright."
"I've given you everything you need, go back now," the True Saint of Taiyuan waved his hand.
Hum~ Wu Yuan disappeared instantly from where he stood.
"Ancestor Witch?"
"Time and Space Dao Lord? Immortal Saint? It seems to also involve the Ancestral Tower..." The True Saint of Taiyuan muttered to himself. "If it weren't for not wanting to give up that thing, I really wouldn't want to get involved in this mess."
Figures like the Time and Space Dao Lord and the Immortal Saint have been searching for successors over the long years, wanting to cultivate new supreme beings.
But the True Saint of Taiyuan?
He wasn't so interested in cultivating disciples and successors.
"However, it is indeed interesting."
"Is the Ancestor Witch's layout aimed at that person?" The True Saint of Taiyuan murmured to himself. "But, can a little guy at the level of a celestial deity or divine lord become a disruptor? Or is he just bait?"
Shaking his head, his figure directly dissipated.
...
Outside the Taiyuan Palace.
"Mingjian, you're back so soon?" Mountain Prime Master saw Wu Yuan flying out of the palace.
"Master," Wu Yuan said.
"No need to explain. Whatever the True Saint and you discussed, whatever he gave you, as long as you know, don't leak it," Mountain Prime Master smiled. "Next, it's time to send you to the Primordial Hall."
"Primordial Hall?" Wu Yuan was puzzled.
This place was mentioned once by Northern Solitude Ancestor when they parted ways two thousand years ago.
However, for the past two thousand years, there had been no movement, and Wu Yuan hadn't thought much about it.
But the words 'primordial hall' stirred something in Wu Yuan's heart.
There was a faint sense of familiarity, but he couldn't recall what it was for a moment.
"The Primordial Hall is an auxiliary cultivation sacred place of our Taiyuan Divine Court, which greatly aids in breaking through bottlenecks in enlightenment," Mountain Prime Master said. "It's extremely costly to activate it once, even for Sovereign-level powerhouses, most of them are unwilling to exchange for a chance to enter cultivation."
"And for mortal lives, unless their comprehension of the Dao reaches the level of a quasi-Sovereign, with the hope of becoming the strongest genius, most will not activate it."
"Your comprehension of the Dao, although slightly inferior to the Sovereign level, is not far off."
"Therefore, we Masters have jointly decided to open it for you for free and send you in for cultivation," Mountain Prime Master said. "After going through cultivation in the Primordial Hall, your progress will be faster, and your hope of obtaining the title of saint in the Universal Path will greatly increase."
"Thank you, Master," Wu Yuan said respectfully.
It sounded like this so-called Primordial Hall would greatly increase his cultivation efficiency.
"Let's go." Mountain Prime Master took Wu Yuan and quickly left the Taiyuan Palace along the interwoven layers of time and space.

(End of this chapter)
Chapter 472: Transformation of Time, Mingjian
Traveling along the interwoven layers of time and space was terrifyingly fast compared to the material space layer.
In less than a moment, under the control of Mountain Prime Master, Wu Yuan felt the surrounding spatial dimensions change rapidly, revealing once again the scene of the material space layer.
Vast and boundless land.
In the void were continuous palace complexes, with Wu Yuan and Mountain Prime Master right in the core of these palace complexes.
"What's this?" Wu Yuan couldn't help but look into the distance, where there was a grand and endless golden temple.
This golden temple was probably millions of miles high, surrounded by countless hazy lights, containing unfathomable mysteries.
The temple stood tall, emitting a surging pressure that impacted in all directions, making Wu Yuan feel somewhat overwhelmed.
At the highest point of the temple were two ancient characters engraved, characters Wu Yuan had never seen before.
But at the first sight, he understood the meaning they contained — "Primordial."
"So, this is the Primordial Hall?" Wu Yuan held his breath.
Although this temple was not as mysterious as the Taiyuan Palace, its pressure was even stronger!
"Let's go."
Mountain Prime Master took Wu Yuan and quickly approached the entrance of the temple's main gate. The gate was wide open, but the interior was chaotic and indistinct, as if something sacred was floating and wandering, difficult to discern.
At the entrance of the hall.
There were dozens of Star Monarch powerhouses guarding, emitting very strong auras, all of them at the peak of Star Monarch.
"Greetings, Master." These dozens of Star Monarchs all bowed respectfully.
Star Monarchs, even in the Divine Court headquarters, belonged to the middle level, and their status was quite high.
To be able to have so many Star Monarchs specially guarding indicated that this place was extraordinary.
"The decision of the meeting has been issued." Mountain Prime Master's gaze swept over these Star Monarchs and said lightly, "I believe you've all received the order to open the Primordial Hall."
"Mingjian, you will cultivate inside for three thousand years," Mountain Prime Master said.
"Yes." The leading quasi-Sovereign powerhouse nodded and couldn't help but glance at Wu Yuan.
"Mingjian."
"He's Mingjian?"
"The Primordial Hall usually lasts for only a thousand years when opened. He can last for three thousand years?"
"The Masters really value him!" These guards of Star Monarchs muttered to themselves, quite envious.
They had presided over this place for many years and had seen many Sovereigns enter the Primordial Hall, but to see celestial deities and divine lords enter? And to cultivate for three thousand years in one go was extremely rare.
Of course, no one would be jealous; they all knew of Mingjian's astonishing talent.
"Boom~"
Accompanied by a low rumble, the towering temple in the distance, millions of miles high, emitted slight tremors, and the mist at the gate seemed to dissipate somewhat.
"Mingjian, go in." Mountain Prime Master said, "The function of the Primordial Hall will become clear to you once you enter."
"Your true self will stay inside for three thousand years, while your avatar can roam outside."
"Understood." Wu Yuan nodded.
With a whoosh, another figure appeared beside him, with a nearly identical appearance.
It was his avatar.
Whoosh!
Wu Yuan's true self took a step forward, flew directly into the temple gate along the green brick path, and disappeared into the hazy mist.
Boom~
Countless mysterious runes appeared on the surface of the temple, faint thunder lights flickering, and at the same time, the heavy and ancient gate slowly closed.
"Guard it well." Mountain Prime Master swept his gaze over the dozens of Star Monarchs and said to Wu Yuan's avatar, "You can return to Taiyuan Island through the distant teleportation array. I won't send you back."
"If anything happens, you can contact me directly through Taiyuan Realm." Mountain Prime Master said, "I'll leave first."
With that!
Hum~ Mountain Prime Master had already disappeared, leaving behind a group of Star Monarchs and Wu Yuan's avatar.
"Three thousand years?"
"I'll go find other Star Monarchs with this avatar of mine, spar a bit, and then return to Taiyuan Island." Wu Yuan smiled and turned away.
...
Inside the Primordial Hall.
Wu Yuan's true self had just entered the hall. The hall was vast and boundless, with darkness all around, as if being in the endless starry sky. With the closing of the door, he couldn't even perceive an exit.
"Hmm?" Wu Yuan's eyes flashed with surprise as he immediately sensed the uniqueness of this place.
Just standing here, he felt his inner self becoming incredibly tranquil!
His spiritual consciousness became extremely pure.
"Is there a formation guiding the soul here?" Wu Yuan was secretly surprised, scanning around.
The Primordial Hall was very mysterious. At least, he hadn't found any useful information through the Taiyuan Realm just now.
Suddenly.
Swoosh~ silently, in the dim void, a purple jade platform suddenly appeared, about three zhang long and wide, and about one meter high, resembling a large jade bed.
The jade bed emitted a hazy aura, mysterious and vast, making people feel incredibly comfortable from the bottom of their hearts.
"Should I sit on it?" Wu Yuan received an invisible guidance and felt a temptation himself.
A desire emerged in the depths of his soul, urging Wu Yuan to sit on it voluntarily.
"A jade bed?"
"It seems to be similar to the common auxiliary cultivation jade platforms." Wu Yuan came to the front of the jade platform and felt the desire in his heart growing stronger.
Without much hesitation.
Whoosh!
Wu Yuan directly sat cross-legged on the jade bed. As soon as he sat down, he felt extremely comfortable all over his body, even his divine soul trembled slightly, and it even made Wu Yuan involuntarily groan.
Every part of his body was completely relaxed.
Following that, swoosh~ it seemed that there was a mysterious substance contained within the jade bed, which immediately surged into Wu Yuan's body through every part of his body, penetrating into every corner of his body, even infiltrating his divine soul.
"Boom~"
Wu Yuan immediately sensed changes within himself. The many unclear origins of various laws, influenced by the Dao, which were difficult to sense clearly before, suddenly became extremely clear.
"This?" Wu Yuan's eyes were full of shock, somewhat incredulous.
Like the time and space laws mutually influencing each other, they became extremely clear.
Even life laws, death laws, thunder laws, and so on were no longer as obscure.
It became much easier for Wu Yuan to comprehend the mysteries of these laws compared to before.
"Is this the effect of the Primordial Hall? It actually can eliminate the influence of the Dao?" Wu Yuan was astonished.
The influence of the Dao was everywhere.
The higher the comprehension of the laws, the greater the impact.
For celestial deities and divine lords, even if they comprehended a certain Dao, because their divine souls had not completely imprinted the essence of the Dao, the impact was not fatal, and there was still a lot of room for improvement.
But in this distant hall, it could actually eliminate the influence of the Dao?
"However."
"It seems that there is still the influence of the Great Dao?" Wu Yuan keenly noticed this: "The spatial and temporal laws are completely eliminated of the influence of the Dao."
"However, laws like the life laws and thunder laws that are still influenced due to the refining of the physical body, can still be affected to a certain extent by the Dao? It's just not as strong as before." Wu Yuan quickly made a judgment.
He was contemplating.
The Primordial Hall should be very precious. This was probably the most core cultivation treasure land of the Taiyuan Divine Court, where even Sovereigns found it difficult to enter once and had to pay a huge price.
This was personally stated by Mountain Prime Master.
Want to enter as a celestial deity or divine lord? Usually, one had to master Sovereign-level techniques to enter the Primordial Hall, and leverage the special environment of the Primordial Hall to help break through their own bottlenecks.
"These mysterious substances?" With Wu Yuan's strength, he could perceive that they were able to eliminate the influence of the Dao.
The key lies in the mysterious substances released by the jade bed, barely detectable yet undeniably real.
These mysterious substances must be extremely precious.
"Three thousand years!"
"Just right, by then, the Cosmic Pathway will be opening." Wu Yuan thought to himself, "According to the intentions of the Divine Court's Prime Masters, they probably want to help me improve my strength in the shortest possible time and increase my chances of obtaining the Holy Title."
"So, time cannot be wasted."
"I must make my strongest aspect even stronger." Wu Yuan had already figured it out completely.
With both avatars entering the Cosmic Pathway simultaneously, neither avatar alone could be sure of obtaining the Holy Title.
It was necessary for both avatars to cooperate to have a chance of surpassing those top-tier geniuses.
"In a direct confrontation, the Qi Refinement avatar cannot keep up with the Body Refinement avatar." Wu Yuan thought to himself, "The Qi Refinement avatar excels in escape techniques, it's more supportive."
"Now that I have just transformed into a Spatial Dao Body."
"So, for the next three thousand years, I will exert all my efforts to comprehend the laws of space, use the spatial laws as the core to drive the laws of time, and further enhance my understanding of the temporal and spatial avenues."
Not only to help in the present.
But also to set the stage for the future.
Just like the Body Refinement avatar, which would spend more time comprehending the laws of life, striving to become a Life Sovereign in the future.
Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement avatar was the same; it would focus on the laws of space, with the laws of time as secondary.
What Wu Yuan pursued was to become a Space Sovereign in the future.
"The laws of time reached the Domain level not long ago." Wu Yuan pondered silently, "It no longer affects my ability to deduce the temporal and spatial avenues to the Domain level... Next, I'll do my best to deduce the laws of space to a high level, and even completely comprehend them."
Spatial Dao Body, Supreme Realm Divine Soul, combined with the special environment of the Primordial Hall.
There were also many secret techniques to draw inspiration from.
Three thousand years might be equivalent to tens of thousands of years of previous comprehension efficiency for Wu Yuan.
"Let's begin."
Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement avatar sat cross-legged on the jade platform, completely calming his mind, and began to focus most of his energy on comprehending the laws of space.
Immediately, without any Dao influence, countless mysteries of spatial laws surged into his mind, and the efficiency of cultivation was simply tens of times higher than before.
"The cultivation speed is too fast."
"Can three thousand years match thirty thousand years?"
"No!"
"If this kind of cultivation efficiency doesn't decrease, continuing to cultivate like this, it will match the hundred thousand years I previously spent comprehending the laws of space alone." Wu Yuan was also excited and delighted in his heart.
Before, after cultivating for thousands of years, without expending too much effort, he had comprehended the laws of space to the Domain level.
If he were to continue to cultivate with full effort for a hundred thousand years? It was simply unimaginable.
In fact, Wu Yuan didn't expect the effect of the Spatial Dao Body to be so good when combined with the Primordial Hall.
And in reality.
Wu Yuan was unaware that Superior Dao Bodies were inherently extraordinary, often created only by the highest existences, and were directly aimed at the Great Dao.
For the highest existences, it wasn't too difficult to cultivate a Sovereign existence, as long as they spent many treasures, they could always achieve it.
But the imprint of the Great Dao was highly precious even to the highest existences, and usually only bestowed upon highly valued successors.
This showed the preciousness of the Great Dao imprint.
Whether it was the Qi Refinement avatar or the Body Refinement avatar, Wu Yuan's transformation into a Superior Dao Body hadn't been long.
The longer the time.
The more he would feel the specialness and power of the Superior Dao Body.
Year after year!
Time flies like flowing water.
Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement avatar made rapid progress in the laws of space, while also continuously driving the advancement of the temporal and spatial avenues.
Progress was simply leaps and bounds.
Time flew by like flowing water, and over a thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
...
In the True Source Realm, there stood a grand temple that only the Sovereigns could enter.
Today, Heart Cliff Sovereign, Mountain Ascend Sovereign, and five other Sovereigns had gathered here.
"Heart Cliff, Mountain Ascend, Blood Dawn."
"The decision to open the Primordial Hall for Ming Jian's sake, was it a joint decision of you three?" A white-robed Sovereign with a vast aura and a cold voice asked.
"Exactly." Mountain Ascend Sovereign, the largest figure present, was indifferent to the aura emitted by the white-robed Sovereign.
"Ming Jian easily defeated Xiang Wei, his strength is evident, even the True Saints personally summoned him." Mountain Ascend Sovereign said, "Now that the Cosmic Pathway is about to open, he has a chance to obtain the Holy Title, so we must do everything we can to help him improve his strength."
"Yan Kui, do you have any objections?"
Heart Cliff Sovereign and another Sovereign in red robes smiled and remained silent.
The three of them were relatively united.
The eight Sovereigns of the Divine Court were not always in agreement.
"Ming Jian's talent is exceptional, I agree to give him the maximum cultivation." The white-robed Sovereign frowned, "But, we both know that with his current strength, he is far from reaching the level of the strongest geniuses, and his hope of obtaining the Holy Title is extremely slim."
"Do we need to open the Primordial Hall so early?"
"The Primordial Substance, although there are differences in the absorption limits of each creature, the difference is not significant... It's best to wait until he reaches a bottleneck in cultivation before using the Primordial Substance to attempt to break through it."
"Ming Jian, from what I know, has not yet reached a bottleneck in cultivation and has been progressing rapidly." The white-robed Sovereign shook his head, "He absorbs early, which seems like rapid progress, but what if he encounters a bottleneck in the future? What then?"
"By doing this, do you not know the risk of overstimulation?" The white-robed Sovereign spoke gravely.
Heart Cliff Sovereign, Mountain Ascend Sovereign, and Blood Dawn Sovereign looked at each other.
"Yan Kui."
"We both know what's in our hearts." Heart Cliff Sovereign shook his head, "Ming Jian is destined to become the pinnacle of Sovereigns in the future. Even without the assistance of the Primordial Substance, it will only take him a little more time."
"And to step into the Sovereign level, the role of the Primordial Substance is minimal."
"The Primordial Substance, though rare and precious, only assists in comprehending the higher-level laws, allowing one to reach the pinnacle of Sovereigns faster." Heart Cliff Sovereign said, "Allowing Ming Jian to open it early is just to give him more hope in the Cosmic Pathway."
"The opportunities of the Cosmic Pathway are crucial to him."
Sovereign Yan Kui frowned slightly, unsure how to refute because Heart Cliff Sovereign was right.
"Heart Cliff, Mountain Ascend, we understand your intentions."
Another Sovereign, who had not spoken before and whose body seemed like a bundle of flames, said solemnly, "However, the many Sovereigns of the Divine Court have paid a great price. They only have one chance in their lifetime, and can only cultivate in the Primordial Hall for a thousand years... Ming Jian is indeed exceptional, but it's not necessary for him to cultivate for three thousand years."
"There are so many of you, don't you think it's too wasteful of the Primordial Substance?" The flame-like Sovereign said.
The Primordial Substance was extremely precious.
It was brought by the True Saints.
Even Sovereigns like them couldn't obtain it easily, but it greatly aided the cultivation of super strong individuals.
How to use it and how much to use were all regulated.
Although the eight Sovereigns were the actual managers of the Divine Court, they were also very cautious in handling these most precious treasures.
If the Heart Cliff Sovereign and Mountain Ascend Sovereign decided to let Wu Yuan enter and cultivate for a thousand years, even if Sovereign Yan Kui and the others had ideas, they wouldn't directly express them.
However.
A full three thousand years, equivalent to consuming three opportunities for Sovereigns to cultivate, naturally made Sovereign Yan Kui and the others feel dissatisfied, as this threatened their interests.
Within the Divine Court, there were factions and conflicts of interest.
The right to use the Primordial Substance.
It was a very important interest.
The Eternal Sun Immortal Nation in the Qingling Great Realm was directly managed by the Heart Cliff Sovereign. Naturally, Wu Yuan belonged to the faction of the Heart Cliff Sovereign, and even in the future, he would be closer to the Heart Cliff Sovereign.
If the Divine Court could produce another Sovereign, Sovereign Yan Kui and his faction would be pleased, and they would rejoice in it.
But if this directly affected their interests, Sovereign Yan Kui and his faction would also be dissatisfied. After all, they also had many Sovereigns under their command and had to consider all aspects.
This time, Heart Cliff Sovereign, Mountain Ascend Sovereign, and Blood Dawn Sovereign, by bypassing other Sovereigns, directly allocated so many precious resources to Wu Yuan.
If Sovereign Yan Kui ignored this.
Then, there was no guarantee that next time, Heart Cliff Sovereign and his faction wouldn't continue to disregard them in other aspects.
Therefore, Sovereign Yan Kui and his faction had to raise questions.
Interests were based on strength, but they also had to be fought for!
"Yan Kui," Heart Cliff Sovereign was about to explain.
Suddenly.
"Hmm?" Mountain Ascend Sovereign's eyes flashed with surprise. "Haha, good! Very good, Ming Jian, who is highly valued by the True Saints, is indeed worthy of praise."
"What's going on?" Heart Cliff Sovereign was puzzled.
"Mountain Ascend, what's going on?" Sovereign Yan Kui and the flame-like Sovereign were also puzzled.
"The Primordial Hall."
"You can sense it for yourselves. We're all Sovereigns, and we all have the authority." Mountain Ascend Sovereign smiled.
Immediately.
Other Sovereigns closed their eyes one after another and carefully sensed it. Then, one by one, they opened their eyes, all showing surprise.
"Ming Jian, he actually achieved this so quickly?" Heart Cliff Sovereign was shocked.
"So fast in cultivating."
"Before he entered the Primordial Hall, he had just stepped into the ninth layer of the True Intent of Time and Space." Sovereign Yan Kui said in a low voice, his voice full of shock. "He entered the Primordial Hall less than two thousand years ago and has already mastered Sovereign-level techniques?"
"It is a Sovereign-level technique."
"That sword technique is unmistakable! It contains the mysteries of time and space, and even we can feel its profundity." The flame-like Sovereign said softly. "Indeed, it is a Sovereign-level technique... Ming Jian, truly creating miracles time and time again."
"In terms of comprehending the Dao, he is already on the same level as Wu Yuan of the Witch Court and Mu Long of the Immortal Court."
"When the Cosmic Pathway opens, he may indeed have hope." The flame-like Sovereign sighed.
Those skilled in the Dao of time and space naturally hoped for more.
Moreover, with the mastery of Sovereign-level techniques, Ming Jian's direct combat strength had also greatly increased.
"Yan Kui, Gui Guang." Heart Cliff Sovereign smiled. "This is why we granted Ming Jian the opportunity to cultivate in the Primordial Hall for three thousand years. Do you agree?"
The hall fell silent.
Sovereign Yan Kui and Sovereign Gui Guang glanced at each other, shook their heads helplessly, and did not oppose further.
Ming Jian.
With his actions, he proved that he did not waste the Primordial Substance and indeed had hope of competing for the Holy Title.
"I hope that the Divine Court of Taiyuan can truly produce a Holy Title genius." Sovereign Yan Kui said lightly. "Since the beginning of time, the Cosmic Pathway has opened dozens of times, but the Divine Court of Taiyuan has never produced a person to obtain the title of the Cosmic Pathway."
A Holy Title genius was a term for an extraordinary genius who could compete for the title.
It was much stronger than the so-called strongest geniuses.
After all, every time the Cosmic Pathway opened, there were at least twenty or thirty of the strongest geniuses participating, and sometimes as many as seventy or eighty, but there were at most three who could obtain the title.
More than half of the titleholders eventually became Sovereigns.
And in the Divine Court of Taiyuan, countless geniuses born in all generations, only Mountain Ascend Sovereign came close to obtaining the title.
Hoo! Hoo!
Sovereign Yan Kui and Sovereign Gui Guang disappeared instantly.
