Eternal Sacred King - Chapter 2105
2105 A Month
Su Zimo advanced in the direction of Coiling Dragon Mountain Range according to the map.
He encountered dangers along the way as well.
Thankfully, he was already a Grade 6 Earth Immortal now. With the treasures such as the Hell Suppression Tripod and many powerful methods, he could already protect himself and was safe.
Dangers lurked everywhere as he traveled with all his might and Su Zimo did not dare to divert his attention to cultivate.
!!
Although he had accumulated a large amount of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi in his body after receiving the inheritance of the Exalted Mystic Spirit Big Dipper True Sutra, he still did not have the chance to absorb and refine it.
Therefore, his cultivation realm was still at the level of a Grade 6 Earth Immortal.
Two months later, Su Zimo finally caught sight of Coiling Dragon Mountain Range.
Even without checking against the map, he was certain that the endless and majestic mountain range before him was the Coiling Dragon Mountain Range!
Astral Rain was not wrong. Anyone who was here could not ignore the majestic mountain range before them.
Arriving in the vicinity, the Coiling Dragon Mountain Range on the map became increasingly clear and transformed into a curved, pitch-black, thick line that crossed almost the entire Divine Firmament Mainland, splitting it into two!
Coiling Dragon Mountain Range could no longer be judged purely by its length.
The terrain of Coiling Dragon Mountain Range was complex and varied. Some regions meandered like a divine dragon traveling while others formed a circle like a divine dragon coiling around with a celestial charm.
Su Zimo continued forward.
Before long, he heard a commotion ahead. There were many figures densely packed on the mountain range.
Four gigantic auspicious clouds floated in the skies of Coiling Dragon Mountain Range. Hundreds of people stood on them and looked down.
It was only when he approached Coiling Dragon Mountain Range that Su Zimo truly experienced the grandeur of the Immortal Sect Selection.
Many cultivators stood at the peak of the mountain range. At a glance, there were at least millions of cultivators and it was bustling!
Those cultivators had different cultivation realms—Black Immortals, Earth Immortals and Heaven Immortals.
Some of them were itinerant cultivators while others were cultivators of some sects and factions. Gathered together, they glared at the bottom of the mountain range and exclaimed or cheered from time to time.
Su Zimo soared into the air. Before long, he arrived at the peak and looked down as well.
Beneath the mountain range, a gigantic water barrier rose slightly and hovered in midair.
Images were reflected on the water barrier and it could be seen clearly that some cultivators were fighting with their lives, some were walking alone and some were escaping with all their might.
The water barrier was similar to the Mirage Mirror and could reflect many situations in an area on the water barrier.
Su Zimo looked around and arrived beside a Black Immortal, coughing gently.
The Black Immortal was shocked by the voice and turned back.
“Let me ask you a few things,”
Su Zimo’s expression was calm and his tone was indifferent.
“Exalted Immortal, please speak,”
The Black Immortal could not figure out Su Zimo’s background. Coupled with the fact that his cultivation realm was not high, he did not dare to delay and replied hurriedly.
“Tell me about the rules of the Immortal Sect Selection,”
Su Zimo did not beat around the bush and asked straightforwardly.
The Black Immortal was slightly stunned but he reacted quickly. “The Immortal Sect Selection is actually a gathering of many Earth Immortal experts to kill one another.”
“The terrain of this Coiling Dragon Mountain Range surrounds itself internally and forms a valley. I heard that experts of the four immortal sects once joined forces and used this terrain to set up a sealed formation.”
“The water barrier below can reflect the situation in the valley at any moment.”
The Black Immortal explained as he pointed to the valley formed by Coiling Dragon Mountain Range.
“How many Earth Immortals are taking part in the Immortal Sect Selection this time round?”
Su Zimo asked.
The Black Immortal said, “Before the selection began, the four immortal sects announced a total of 180,451 people.”
“So many!”
Su Zimo was secretly speechless.
Those participating in the Immortal Sect Selection were not ordinary Earth Immortals.
Those who dared to take part in the Immortal Sect Selection were all top-tier Earth Immortal experts and the weakest were Grade 7 Earth Immortals!
The fact that 180,000 top Earth Immortals were gathered here was proof of how attractive the four immortal sects were to many cultivators.
What was even more cruel was that only a hundred of the 180,000 top Earth Immortals would be selected in the end!
The competition was way too intense.
The fact that they could take part in the Immortal Sect Selection meant that they had already surpassed most Earth Immortals.
Even in this group, only a hundred of the most outstanding Earth Immortals were selected to join the four immortal sects!
Su Zimo glared at a pair of cultivators fighting in the water barrier below.
One of them was defeated and was severely injured. Just as he was about to die in the other party’s hands, the person suddenly took out a golden badge.
Immediately after, the golden badge shone with a golden light, forming a golden barrier that protected the person and blocked all the attacks of the cultivator opposite him.
Thereafter, a vortex appeared above the heads of the two people.
It dragged the severely injured cultivator outside but left the golden badge in his hands in the valley.
Before entering the vortex, the storage bag on the person’s waist suddenly exploded and dozens of identical golden badges appeared.
The cultivator on the other end waved his hand and put away the dozens of badges with a delighted expression.
The cultivator that was taken away by vortex was thrown out of the battlefield and landed outside Coiling Dragon Mountain Range with a sorry expression.
“What’s that golden badge?”
Su Zimo asked.
“That’s the Coiling Dragon Badge issued by the four immortal sects. Every Earth Immortal participating in the Immortal Sect Selection has one,”
The Black Immortal said, “If you truly can’t defeat your enemy in the valley below or encounter a life and death crisis, inject your Essence Qi into the Coiling Dragon Badge and activate the golden barrier. Your life will then be saved.”
“Of course, that also means failure. You will be taken away from the battlefield and leave your Coiling Dragon Badge in the valley,”
Pausing for a moment, the Black Immortal said, “Right, there’s one more thing. The Immortal Sect Selection will last for a year. No matter how many people are left on the battlefield in the end, the hundred people who obtain the most Coiling Dragon Badges will be the final victors.”
Su Zimo nodded slightly.
That way, it could avoid the situation where cultivators hid passively and avoided challenges until the end.
Su Zimo thought of something else. There was a high chance that the rules of Absolute Thunder City’s Ten Absolute Hell were copied from the Immortal Sect Selection and the two were similar.
However, the Ten Absolute Hell was in a killing mode and there was no other way out.
At the very least, the Immortal Sect Selection left a chance of survival for the Earth Immortals who entered the battlefield.
As long as one knew how to give up and activated the Coiling Dragon Badge at a critical juncture, they would definitely not die.
Su Zimo thought of an extremely critical matter and suddenly asked, “How long more before the Immortal Sect Selection ends?”
“There’s only a month left,”
The Black Immortal pointed to the valley. “There were originally more than 180,000 Earth Immortal experts. After more than half a year of competition, there are only slightly more than a thousand left on the battlefield. It’ll end soon.”
“A month?”
Su Zimo’s gaze was deep as he looked at the valley below and murmured, “That’s enough time.”
