The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Next came the most crucial stage of all.

The Sunset Ancient City.

Geniuses from the three Great Sacred Lands had gathered at the summit of Longxiao Sacred Mountain and engaged in a prolonged, intense battle. All of it had been for one goal, to secure the qualification to enter the Sunset Ancient City.

At this moment, the Sunset Gate erupted with brilliant light. Starting from the bottom, it lit up in increments of one hundred zhang, steadily rising upward.

Soon, the light had already reached six hundred zhang in height.

"The sixth stage."

On the elder seats, the high ranking elders all became visibly excited.

In the Sunset Heaven Selection ten years ago, the Sunset Gate had only reached the sixth stage.

This time, it was clear that the light would continue to rise.

"What does this mean?"

Ling Feng felt slightly puzzled. In his understanding, the Sunset Gate was simply the gateway to a secret realm. The top one hundred disciples would be qualified to enter and obtain opportunities.

"There is something my master told me before."

Tuoba Yan turned back to glance at Ling Feng before speaking softly. "It is said that the Sunset Gate opens different layers depending on the overall power level of the Sunset Heaven Selection. The Sunset Ancient City is a layered world. If the Sunset Gate reaches the seventh stage, it means that the geniuses of our Dongling Region can enter up to the seventh spatial layer to obtain inheritances. If it reaches the ninth stage, we can enter the ninth spatial layer and obtain even greater inheritances."

"The higher the layer, the greater the opportunities."

Gongsun Changfeng smiled faintly. "It is said that in the past thousand years, the Sunset Gate has only reached the eighth stage at most."

"The eighth stage?"

Ling Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at the towering Sunset Gate. His eyelid twitched slightly.

In the blink of an eye, the Sunset Gate had already broken through to eight hundred zhang, meaning it had reached the eighth stage.

"Wow."

"My heavens, it has already reached the eighth stage."

Countless eyes were filled with shock. Had it already surpassed the highest record of the past thousand years so quickly.

This was not surprising. This generation of the Sunset Heaven Selection had produced extraordinary geniuses, especially the battle between Ling Feng and Shi Haoxuan, which could be described as an epic confrontation.

Surpassing the peak of a thousand years was only natural.

"A great era is truly descending. The Sunset Gate has once again reached the eighth stage."

The Hall Master of the Blazing Sun Hall had burning intensity in his eyes. With the efforts of the disciples from Dongling Immortal Pool, perhaps they could push Dongling Immortal Pool to an even higher level.

Although Dongling Immortal Pool was already the overlord of the Dongling Region, the Dongling Region itself was considered the weakest among the entire Xuanling Continent's five major regions.

"In that case, our Yunluo Sacred Land is benefiting from Shi Haoxuan and Ling Feng."

The Sect Master of the Xiaoyun Pavilion sighed softly. The higher the Sunset Ancient City opened, the greater the opportunities for their disciples.

As for the elder of the Wulei Sacred Land, he let out a long sigh. With those two monsters in Dongling Immortal Pool, its position would become unshakable for years to come.

Immediately after, the Sunset Gate erupted with even brighter light. The nine hundred zhang height lit up brilliantly.

"The ninth stage."

The crowd became even more excited. The geniuses of the Dongling Region had actually triggered the ninth stage of the Sunset Gate.

But the shock did not end there. The light continued to rise until it reached a height of one thousand zhang before finally stabilizing.

"The tenth stage."

At the peak of the sacred mountain, the ten divine generals all showed expressions of shock.

"It actually reached the tenth stage. Interesting."

Divine General Cangwu narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his lips. "At this level, they are almost comparable to the geniuses of the Western Sword Region and the Northern Cold Region, are they not?"

"Only Ling Feng and Shi Haoxuan can barely be compared to those regions' geniuses. The rest are still far behind."

The clan patriarch shook his head and said calmly, "The Dongling Region has always been the weakest among the five regions. To produce two such geniuses in one generation is already extremely rare."

"That is true. Especially Ling Feng. He is only in his early twenties and merely at the peak Human Emperor realm. If he breaks through the Great Emperor realm and steps into the Divine Destiny Realm, his strength will reach an even more terrifying level. He may even be comparable to the top geniuses of the Central Origin Region."

Divine General Cangwu said in a low voice.

"You must not forget that he is from the Jiuli Divine Clan. By origin, he belongs to the Central Origin Region."

The clan patriarch replied calmly.

"Since he is here in the Dongling Region, then he is a Dongling genius."

Cangwu replied stubbornly.

"You are still as competitive as ever. At your age, it will be difficult for you to step into the Saint Realm."

The clan patriarch glanced at him indifferently.

"If I cannot break through, then so be it. We of the Heaven Sealing Clan guard the Heaven Mirror all year round. We cannot go anywhere anyway. The stronger we become, the longer we live, and the more it feels like suffering."

Cangwu shrugged casually.

"You."

The clan patriarch was left speechless. Cangwu had once been one of the top geniuses of the Heaven Sealing Clan. He had been expected to reach the Saint Realm, but his temperament had always been careless and unstable.

"Haha. Clan Patriarch, please do not be angry. I will go attend to business now."

Cangwu laughed and leapt down from the sacred mountain, landing directly among the Dongling Immortal Pool disciples.

The clan patriarch shook his head helplessly. The cold faced divine general beside him spoke calmly.

"For so many years, I only agree with one thing he says. The longer one lives, the more it feels like suffering."

The clan patriarch fell silent. These two really were brothers.

......

"Fellow Daoist Ling Feng."

Seeing a divine general of such status descend personally, everyone was stunned.

It had been countless years since anyone heard of a divine general from the Heaven Sealing Clan personally seeking out disciples of the three Great Sacred Lands. They were beings beyond worldly matters, a mysterious force within the Dongling Region.

Yet this time, they had come directly for Ling Feng.

"Senior."

Ling Feng recognized Cangwu and politely cupped his hands. "May I ask what brings you here."

"Haha, nothing much."

Cangwu smiled. "The clan patriarch asked me to greet you, and also to send greetings to your clan."

"My clan?"

Ling Feng was slightly puzzled. Had Cangwu discovered that he was from the Heavenly Dao Clan.

That should not be possible. Moreover, the Heavenly Dao Clan seemed to have only him left. There was no such thing as a clan anymore.

"Still pretending."

Cangwu's voice suddenly rang in Ling Feng's mind through spiritual transmission.

"Little guy, stop hiding it. The aura of the Jiuli Divine Clan on you can fool others, but it cannot fool our Heaven Sealing Clan. After all, we are a half divine race ourselves."

"Uh..."

Ling Feng's mouth twitched slightly.

So he had been mistaken for someone from the Jiuli Divine Clan.

That was not surprising. Back then, in the demon sacred land, he had been gravely injured and nearly died. It was Mu Qianxue who had sacrificed her divine blood to save him and restore him.

At this moment, traces of Jiuli Divine Clan blood did flow within him. It was no wonder they had misunderstood him.
