Such a tremendous change made everyone react in an instant.

Especially the Grand Yan Immortals who had been waiting outside the city gates from the beginning, the moment the barrier shattered, they rushed in headlong.

Jian Wushuang frowned as he observed them. What were these people thinking? Did they truly believe that entering the Qishen Temple early would give them an advantage?

Where there were daredevils, there were also the timid.

Those half-step Dao Lords who had confidence in their own strength calmly entered Qiuhuang City. Jian Wushuang, along with Hu Qing and others, began to enter one after another.

It was an acknowledgment of their own abilities; even if you went in first and obtained treasures, I can snatch them away from you.

The city gates were incredibly wide, spanning thousands of miles in length and breadth.

It was spacious enough for these Grand Yan Immortals to enter together, but there were still some who hesitated, wanting to enter last.

Whether it was to scavenge or to be cannon fodder for those who went in first, these people were not in a hurry.

Just in the time it took to finish a cup of tea, all the 400,000 Grand Yan Immortals had entered Qiuhuang City, leaving only a few thousand individuals hesitating, undecided about their next move.

But at this moment, the gates spanning thousands of miles suddenly closed!

“As expected, there’s something fishy about this city!” a Perfected Nine Revolutions Grand Yan Immortal exclaimed, as if they had just narrowly escaped a disaster.

“Ha-ha, even if we don’t enter, it’s fine. Regardless of whether it’s good or bad, at least we can observe the traces left by these emperors outside the city,” said one of the Grand Yan Immortals, nodding in agreement. Their strengths were not that impressive to begin with; entering might not offer them significant opportunities. They decided to stay outside the city and cultivate there instead.The source of thɪs content is Noᴠelꜰire.nᴇt

“Trouble! ”

Inside Qiuhuang City.

As soon as these people entered the city, they were teleported onto the city walls. A Grand Yan Immortal stared at the people outside, his voice trembling,

“They are in trouble!”

Jian Wushuang stood on the city wall, his gaze penetrating the entire Feather Transmutation Continent, while those outside couldn’t see him. However, he could see any location outside the city, especially the spreading darkness in the distance.

Hehe!

Having two Dao Lords in the Eastern City was considered quite decent. Across the entire Original Planet, even with Ji Chaoyang included, there were only seven Dao Lords. Perhaps Hu Qing and Heavenly Emperor Wan Xing would guard one city wall each, Jian Wushuang speculated, after all, their strength far surpassed theirs by a considerable margin.

The remaining city wall would probably be defended by Xue Yue, Leng Shuang, and Ji Chaoyang. Their strengths weren’t excessively formidable; Jian Wushuang was confident in defeating any one of them, so it made sense to assign the three of them to one city wall.

After confirming that it was impossible to reach other city walls, Jian Wushuang started to assess the strengths on the remaining city walls. He had to be prepared, as there was a real danger of falling this time.

Ding!

A crisp sound echoed, and from the celestial pillar inside the city, a low and heavy breathing sound emanated.

“Original Planet, Alpha Nine, the second phase of the trial will commence in three days.”

The voice was emotionless, akin to that of a puppet.

“A trial? What kind of trial?” Jian Wushuang scanned the mist-covered city surroundings. There was no sign of any inheritance, not even a single brick.

“Now, reacquire your identity tokens!” When this announcement was made, the Grand Yan Immortals who had lost their identity tokens revealed expressions of joy. For a moment, even the ghosts outside the city walls seemed less frightening.

Especially God-Emperor MO Ling.

Just after he had come out of seclusion and comprehended the battle traces outside the city, he heard the news that both Jian Wushuang and that bald donkey had attained the strength of Dao Lords, especially the monk, who was on par with a half-step Emperor.

Upon hearing this news, MO Ling’s heart turned cold. He had originally harbored thoughts of making a comeback, but now it seemed he had no chance unless he could ascend to Emperor rank himself.

Having the identity token back was enough for him now; what did it matter if he lost those treasures? He could ask his old man for them once he got out, and his father wouldn’t dare deny him.

Returning to his own world, he remained the Emperor.

Of course, it would be best if he could get some treasures from the Qishen Temple.

Jian Wushuang reached out and caught the token flying out of the pillar, injecting a bit of Yan power into it. The token instantly activated.

From the token, he also saw the rules of this trial.

Qishen Temple, the highest trial of Grand Yan Immortal, the second stage of the Original Planet, ‘Inheritance Trial’.

Jian Wushuang glanced at the contents and couldn’t help but gasp.

Within Qiuhuang City, there were 10,000 inheritances.

How incredibly wealthy they were! Jian Wushuangs eyes glowed as he looked at Qiuhuang City..
