Chapter 429: Juexing Ancient City! Two Roads
The Shaxi Xushen flew out of the palace first, followed by fifteen flying-level gods and ten demigods.

Li Yuan and Jiang Shan walked in front.

"Xu Yuan, you were assassinated by a god before. When my sister and I first heard the news, we were worried about you." Jiang Shan transmitted the message, "Fortunately, everything was fine in the end."

"It's mainly because the king came to the rescue quickly and secretly sent a virtual god to protect us." Li Yuan transmitted his voice: "Otherwise, how could I stop the virtual god's assassination by myself?"

This is also the truth. Even with the virtual god puppet, it can only delay for a while.

"That's right." Jiang Shan nodded. "Your understanding of the laws is extremely high, you should have reached the level of virtual god... but your power base is too weak. If you break through to become a demigod, your strength should quickly surpass mine, and your ability to protect yourself will be much stronger, and you will have more means to deal with things."

"Source power cultivation is the foundation."

"Come to think of it, you should have awakened the Eight Star Veins." Jiang Shan transmitted his voice, "Aren't you going to break through and become a demigod yet?"

"There's no rush for now. I want to stay at the Feitian level for a while and awaken the life star to its limit." Li Yuan said vaguely.

Li Yuan was not surprised that Jiang Shan guessed that he had awakened the Eight Star Veins.

In fact, according to the information passed on by Qianhuanxushen, many major intelligence agencies on the Awakening Continent now speculate that they have awakened the Eight Star Veins.

Otherwise, how could he unleash the ultimate strength of a demigod?
"Well, since you can't catch up with the battle of the ancestral realm, you are young enough. It won't have much impact if you break through ten or twenty years later. It's better to consolidate the foundation of the star veins." Jiang Shan said: "Your soul will is strong enough, and your speed of comprehending the laws will not be too slow."

"By the way, have you found out who is behind this?" Jiang Shan asked curiously.

"It hasn't been found out yet." Li Yuan shook his head.

After the assassination, Jiang Yuanzhenshen only sent a message to himself saying that he was investigating.

But ten days have passed and there is still no news.

Li Yuan did not hold out much hope. First, the virtual god was obviously a dead soldier, and most likely he had disguised his identity. No trace of his body was left. How many gods were there in the entire Juexing Continent? It was too difficult to find out.

Second, what if they find out? Since the other party dared to take action, they would not be afraid of being investigated. With Li Yuan's current strength, he was not able to fight back.

In this way, Li Yuan and Jiang Shan communicated with each other through voice transmission while following the flight.

soon.

A group of dozens of people had arrived at an area in the northern city of the capital of Yuan Kingdom.

A number of tower-shaped teleportation arrays with astonishingly large areas and towering majesty have been built here... There are a total of eighteen teleportation arrays.

Seventeen of them are used for teleportation to the capitals of the other seventeen core kingdoms of God in the Eastern Region.

The tallest and most majestic teleportation array teleports to the highest holy place for spiritual practice in the entire continent - the ancient city of Juexing.

It can be said.

The capital of Yuan Kingdom is a core place in the Eastern Region. Every day, a large number of flying demigods and even gods are teleported from other kingdoms of gods to the capital of Yuan Kingdom.

People come and go.

The cost of transmission alone is staggering.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Above the eighteen teleportation arrays, a large number of soldiers in black armor were patrolling... These were the Black Abyss Guards, one of the most powerful armies of the Abyss Nation.

Among the official members of the Black Abyss Guard, the weakest are mid-level demigods, and there are thousands of Black Abyss Guards guarding here... There are also many gods secretly guarding the teleportation array.

"Teleportation array?" A hint of curiosity flashed in Li Yuan's eyes.

Only a god with a high level of understanding of the laws of space can set up a space teleportation array.

Li Yuan had seen it in the information before, but this was the first time he saw it in real life.

They followed the Shaxi Xushen and flew straight to the towering teleportation array in the deepest part.

"Who are these people?"

“There was a team before.”

"Are we going to take the ancient city's teleportation array?" Many Black Abyss Guards looked at this scene curiously.

Teleportation between different kingdoms of God is very frequent.

However, the teleportation array to the ancient city of Juexing can be opened much less frequently, sometimes not even once a day.

But in recent days, there are quite a few teams like this.

"stupid!"

"Have you just arrived? The one wearing silver armor is Jiang Shan, and the one wearing black is Xu Yuan." Another Black Abyss Guard took a quick glance and said, "You have quite a keen eye."

"We should go to Juexing Ancient City for special training."

"Aren't all the members of Juexing Ancient City gods?"

The relatively well-informed Heiyuan Guard said, "It is said that the top ten flying demigod geniuses in the Divine Fire Palace are qualified to go to the Juexing Ancient City."

"In the past few days, not only our Yuan Kingdom, but also the top geniuses of some other weak divine kingdoms have sent teams to our Yuan Kingdom capital and took the teleportation array to the Juexing Ancient City."

"Is the Divine Fire Palace ranked in the top ten?"

"They are all monsters."

“Those in the top ten of the Demigod List are probably as powerful as Virtual Gods.” These Black Abyss Guards secretly sighed.

In terms of strength and status, they are stronger than many demigods in the outside world... but compared with the genius of the Divine Fire Palace, they are nothing.

At this time.

The Shaxi Xushen has led Li Yuan and the others into the space teleportation array.

Soon, a beam of light shot up into the sky from the teleportation array.

Wow!
The teleportation array has become empty. Obviously, Li Yuan and his companions have arrived at the extremely distant ancient city of Juexing.

……

The ancient city of Juexing is the real core of the Juexing Continent. It ranks first among the three ancient starry sky cities and gathers the continent's top powerhouses, the most treasures, and the best external cultivation environment.

Even though the Yuan Kingdom is extremely powerful and thousands of gods gather in the capital all year round, it is still far inferior to the Juexing Ancient City.

The most important thing.

Juexing Ancient City is a holy place for spiritual practice... Anyone who can come here is either a genius or a strong person.

In a huge canyon, there stood one towering tower-shaped teleportation array after another... A ray of light suddenly flashed from one of the teleportation arrays, and dozens of people flew out of the teleportation array soon after.

"Is this the ancient city of Juexing? Why is it a canyon? There are not many people here."

"The sky is guarded by gods."

"It's not quite the same as I imagined." Jiang Xuan, Li Yuan and other Flying-level warriors all looked around curiously.

In the void, a black warship was hovering. On the warship, there were more than ten figures wearing black armor, like soldiers. They all had rather indifferent expressions, overlooking the ground below.

At first glance, they were all ordinary soldiers, but the aura they exuded made Jiang Xuan and other Flying-level warriors tremble with fear.

God!!
"Warship? Soldiers? Virtual God?" Li Yuan was stunned, because he instantly thought of the first time he accepted the "Martial God inheritance" at the Martial God Mountain.

There is a similar scene in the mark of the god.

Gods are soldiers!

"Juexing Ancient City is worthy of being the largest force in Juexing Continent." Many thoughts flashed through Li Yuan's mind: "The inheritance of the God of War is the 'Ten Thousand Gods Inheritance Cave', which was obtained by Alliance Leader Dongfang from the Nine Leaves and Nine Mountains... But the trial site of Alliance Leader Dongfang and the principal is most likely not from Juexing Continent."

“But their experiences and mine should have something in common.”

It was the first time for the Feitian class to come here, so they were quite curious.

But the ten demigods including Baili Teng and Jiang Shan generally looked much more calm. Most of them had been to Juexing Ancient City when they were at the Feitian level.

"So many teleportation arrays?" Li Yuan looked behind him, secretly surprised: "More than 60 teleportation arrays?"

The number is too much.

"Brother Xu Yuan, don't be surprised." Jiang Shan whispered, "Eighteen of these teleportation arrays pass through the eighteen core divine kingdoms... Other teleportation arrays lead to some treasure places controlled by the Juexing Ancient City, all of which contain great opportunities."

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

Of the eight hundred divine kingdoms in the Eastern Region, most had not built teleportation arrays... but they had built teleportation arrays specifically for some precious places.

This is enough to show that in the eyes of the ancient city of Juexing, the importance of many treasure places is even higher than those of ordinary divine kingdoms.

"These are just the surface teleportation arrays. It is said that some mysterious places can only be accessed by core members." Jiang Shan said with a smile: "Bai Li and I only stayed outside the city for five years... We were unable to enter the city, and we only heard about it from others."

"Xu Yuan, you have the hope of becoming the Son of God among the reserve members. The Son of God is a core member, so perhaps you will know." Jiang Shan said.

"Do your best." Li Yuan said with a smile, but he was thinking in his heart.

Outside the city?

In the city?

"Soon, you will be able to see the most magnificent city in the world." Jiang Shan smiled mysteriously again.

At this time, Shaxi Xushen had already flown to the black warship in the void. It seemed that he had finished communicating with the guarding Xushen soldiers and had returned to the front of the team.

"We have arrived at the 'Awakening Star Realm'."

The eyes of Shaxi Xushen were sharp, as if giving people a shocking pressure, and he swept across everyone present: "We are about to arrive at the trial place, I will remind you again."

Except for Li Yuan and Jiang Shan, whose souls and wills were strong enough, everyone else felt a little trembling under this sweeping gaze.

"Ten demigods, most of you have been to Juexing Ancient City... and know the rules." Shaxi Virtual God's voice: "God's Kingdom will give you three chances at most. Some of you have already had the third chance. If you fail the test again, you can only wait until you become a Virtual God before you have a chance to become a 'Juexing Guard'."

"Only after becoming a true god can you become a formal member of Juexing Ancient City."

“But if you become a Juexing Star Guard, you will be at the bottom of Juexing Ancient City… You will have fewer opportunities… The probability of you becoming a True God will be very low, and you will be subject to many restrictions.”

"Among the ten of you, only Jiang Shan and Wu Beihong are absolutely sure to pass the test, but you must not be careless."

"Everyone try your best." Shaxi Xushen said in a low voice.

"Yes." All ten demigods felt the pressure.

Li Yuan, Jiang Xuan and other flying-level masters were also listening quietly on the side.

As far as Li Yuan knows, inside the ancient city of Juexing, the gods are divided into three levels: 'peripheral members, reserve members, and core saints'.

The gods are divided into three levels: Awakening Star Guards, formal members, and core members. Generally, only true gods are core members.

Among them, the status of the reserve members is slightly higher than that of the Juexingwei.

The status of the Son of God is slightly higher than that of a formal member of the Virtual God level.

"As for the fifteen of you." Shaxi Xushen looked at Li Yuan and his group of Flying-level warriors and said, "Except Xu Yuan, the fourteen of you don't have a single hope of becoming reserve members."

Suddenly, this group of Flying-level warriors held their breath.

But they also know how difficult it is for a Flying-level person to become a reserve member... It is much more difficult than for a Demigod-level person to become a reserve member.

"Xu Yuan."

"The king has high hopes for you, and the kingdom of God is also full of expectations for you." Shaxi Xushen's voice became much gentler: "Today is the first battle, so you should do your best. Whether you can make it into the top ten, or even become a Holy Son, depends on your own decision and performance."

"Yes." Li Yuan nodded slightly.

Among the semi-god-level reserve members, the top ones can be given the title of "Holy Son".

The same applies to the Feitian-level reserve members.

“From what Shaxi Xushen said, there should be someone in Juexing Ancient City who is as strong as me at the Feitian level?” This thought flashed through Li Yuan’s mind: “Whatever, just charge as hard as you can.”

"Top ten? Holy Son?"

"I want to see which flying-level person can be stronger than me." Li Yuan said secretly.

Perhaps, in the chaotic divine court of the divine realm, over the long years, some extremely terrifying and peerless monsters will be born, and the flying-level monsters will be able to burst out with the combat power of the virtual god level.

But Li Yuan didn't think it was such a coincidence that such a monstrous genius was born in Juexing Continent at this very moment.

call!
With a wave of Shaxi Xushen's hand, an invisible force carried dozens of them out of the canyon.

Fly out of the canyon.

"What is that?" Including Li Yuan, those flying demigods who came to the Juexing Realm for the first time were stunned at this moment.

At the end of the earth as far as they could see, there was an endless and majestic city.

The city was like a curtain between heaven and earth, spanning the sky and earth, and was probably tens of thousands of kilometers high.

Too high.

It is larger than normal stars and surpasses any man-made buildings Li Yuan has ever seen... Even the god-level mothership brought by Qiu Bingzun is tiny compared to this city.

The city walls were continuous and extended to both sides. The space was faintly distorted, making it impossible for them to see the end of the city.

Magnificent!

At this moment, Li Yuan finally understood what Jiang Shan said. This was indeed the most magnificent city in Juexing Continent.

"It's the Starry Sky Ancient City!!"

“Brother, this is indeed the Starry Sky Ancient City, that’s right.” Gu You’s voice suddenly sounded, with a hint of excitement: “This Starry Sky Ancient City is no different from the Starry Sky Ancient City in the God’s Domain… It can be passed down for hundreds of millions of years. Even if the gods fight and kill each other, they can’t destroy the Starry Sky Ancient City. This is specially built by the Starry Sky Divine Court, and it has endless power.”

"An ancient starry sky city represents extremely powerful power." Gu You sighed.

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

He had heard Gu You say before... that many of the gods' residences were far inferior to the Starry Sky Ancient City in terms of defensive capabilities.

Except for the majestic and endless ancient city of Juexing.

In the vast land outside the city, there are many suspended cities... These cities are also thousands of kilometers in size and can be called big cities, but against the backdrop of the ancient city of the starry sky, they appear very inconspicuous.

"stop looking."

"If you can become a reserve member, you can enter the ancient city of Juexing." Shaxi Xushen said calmly: "Otherwise, just look from outside the city."

"Yes." Many flying demigods said respectfully, their hearts full of fighting spirit.

They all knew that Juexing Ancient City was the most sacred place for spiritual practice in the world.

"Let's go." Shaxi Xushen led dozens of people and flew quickly towards a suspended city in the void.

Actually.

Deep in Shaxi Xushen's eyes, there was also a trace of barely perceptible envy: "Juexing Ancient City... What a pity."

He also failed to become a 'preparatory member' of Juexing Ancient City back then.

Later, when he became a virtual god, he was unwilling to become a star guard.

How can it be as satisfying to be ordered around by others all day long as to have a high position of power and authority in the Kingdom of God?

……

Led by the God Shaxi, the team could fly dozens of kilometers in one second, and after a few minutes they had arrived inside a suspended city.

In the center of the city is a super-large square, where thousands of flying demigods are waiting in teams.

These thousands of people all have very obvious logos on their chests, and each team has a different logo.

It is obviously based on the unit of 'Kingdom of God'.

"You guys go down first and wait patiently." Shaxi Xushen said.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Jiang Shan, Li Yuan and others immediately flew to the square, found an open space and landed.

The moment of landing.

"Buzz~" "Buzz~" An invisible force passed by and condensed into badges in front of the chests of Jiang Shan, Li Yuan and others.

There is an ancient word "Yuan" engraved on it.

Whoosh!
The Shaxi Xushen flew into the sky and entered the high-altitude clouds.

"So many gods." Li Yuan couldn't help but look up. There seemed to be a viewing platform in the clouds, and there were many looming figures. They should be the virtual gods leading the team.

"It's the team from Yuan Country."

"One of the eighteen core divine kingdoms, no wonder there are so many people."

"In our Kingdom of God, only ten people can come in total."

"Yuan Country, who is Xu Yuan?"

"It seems to be the young man in black. It is said that he can unleash the ultimate strength of a demigod and is expected to challenge the position of the Son of God. At least he can make it into the top ten."

"Is this true? You can strive for the position of Holy Son before you even enter Juexing Ancient City to practice?"

"Not sure." The Divine Kingdom teams surrounding the Yuan Kingdom team immediately started discussing. The subject of their discussion was almost entirely Li Yuan, and even Jiang Shan was not mentioned.

obviously.

Looking at the many divine kingdoms, although demigods of Jiang Shan's level are also extremely powerful, they are definitely not the strongest.

But Li Yuan, even among the geniuses of hundreds of divine kingdoms, is still the best among the flying class.

“Jiang Shan, look at this.” Wu Beihong’s voice was filled with sarcasm: “So what if you are number one on the Demigod Ranking in the Divine Realm? Even here, no one knows you, right?”

"You speak as if someone knows you." Jiang Shan glanced at him and said, "My brother Xu Yuan is so famous, I will only be happy for him, and naturally I will not be jealous like you."

"Humph!"

"Hypocrisy." Wu Beihong sneered.

……

On the small viewing platform high in the sky above the square, hundreds of virtual gods had gathered, and they were all chatting casually.

Whoosh!
The Shaxi virtual god flew into the viewing platform and immediately attracted the attention of many virtual gods.

"Shashi is here."

"Shaxi, long time no see." Many virtual gods greeted Shaxi virtual god one after another, all of them were extremely enthusiastic.

In an instant, Shaxi Xushen became a prominent figure among hundreds of Xushen.

Firstly, Shaxi Virtual God represents the 'True God Jiang Yuan', so his status is naturally not something that ordinary virtual gods can reach.

Secondly, the Yuan Kingdom team has the peerless genius Li Yuan.

"Shaxi, I heard that Xu Yuan has the ultimate strength of a demigod. Doesn't that mean he can directly challenge the position of the Holy Son?"

"Among the Feitian-level reserve members of Juexing Ancient City, there are only three vacancies for Saint Sons."

"If we can succeed in the attack, we will become a legend."

"I heard that Xu Yuan has only been practicing for less than forty years. He is really a monster. I'm afraid he has to become a disciple of the gods." These virtual gods were chatting freely.

Most of them are responsible for training young talents in their respective kingdoms of God, so they are naturally very well-informed about the news in this regard.

"Haha."

"You are too kind." Shaxi Xushen said with a smile: "Xu Yuan is indeed a genius carefully cultivated by the king, but he is still young. It would be a success if he could make it into the top ten this time... As for the Flying Saint Son, I guess we have to wait a few more years."

"Stop being modest."

"Tell Xu Yuan that he must challenge the Holy Son. Haha, otherwise this trial will be too boring."

For this group of virtual gods, they would lead a team to the ancient city of Juexing once every twenty years.

This kind of talent selection is very important to those flying demigods, but it is just a 'job' for these virtual gods.

Naturally, I want to see some fun.

"That depends on Xu Yuan." Shaxi Xushen said vaguely. He was not sure what Li Yuan would do.

After all, as a virtual god, he didn't dare to give too much advice to a top genius like Li Yuan who was destined to become a true god in the future.

……

time flies.

Teams from the kingdom of gods arrived one after another, and after a few hours, the entire square was filled with tens of thousands of flying demigods.

"The number of teams exceeds twelve hundred?" Li Yuan was slightly surprised. His spiritual sense could easily detect the entire venue.

The Eastern Region is known for the eight hundred divine kingdoms. Even if there are discrepancies in the numbers, the difference shouldn't be this big.

"Don't be surprised."

"In addition to the eight hundred divine kingdoms in the East Region, the ancient city of Juexingxing also has some territory in some other areas." Jiang Shan smiled and said, "For example, deep in the outer space, there are millions of life stars. Although each life star gives birth to a small number of strong people... but when accumulated, it is still quite amazing, and naturally some geniuses will be born."

"Yeah." Li Yuan nodded slightly.

Finally, when the number of teams exceeded 1,300.

"Wow~"

An invisible wave suddenly swept across the entire venue, and the originally noisy square suddenly became quiet.

A silence.

"Boom!" An invisible pressure enveloped the heaven and earth. The faces of tens of thousands of flying demigods in the square changed. Many of the flying-level bodies were trembling, and it was obvious that some of them could not withstand this terrible pressure.

call!
Silently, a burly figure in red battle armor appeared in the void. The destructive aura he exuded made even a powerful demigod like Jiang Shan choke.

True God!

Li Yuan's face also changed slightly. He felt that the aura of this red-armored god seemed to be even more terrifying than that of the true god Jiang Yuan.

Of course, Li Yuan knew that it was because the True God Jiang Yuan completely restrained his aura when facing him.

"I am the master of the 'Divine Fire Hall' in Juexing Ancient City." The burly figure in red armor said in a rumbling voice: "You can call me 'Chiyang'."

True God Chiyang!

"I am very happy."

"Today, the total number of flying celestials and demigods who came to the Awakening Star Realm exceeded 15,000." True God Chiyang said slowly: "Among them, there are about 9,000 flying celestials and about 6,000 demigods."

"First, we will conduct the flying level assessment."

"All Flying-level members have two choices. First, they can participate in the trial channel. As long as their evaluation points reach 80 points, they can become a Flying-level reserve member." True God Chiyang said slowly: "If you fail, you will enter the trial camp to practice for five years. If you still cannot pass the trial channel after five years... return to your hometown kingdom of God."

Everyone listened quietly.

Almost everyone knows this rule. For example, why did Leng Yan try so hard to stay at the tenth place on the Feitian List?
This is because, even if one fails the assessment, one can still practice in the Juexing Realm for five years.

"Boom~"

Dozens of space passages suddenly appeared in the void. The passages were dark and it was impossible to see the scenery deep inside.

"Second option."

"It means challenging the top 100 Feitian-level reserve members." True God Chiyang said slowly, "If the challenge is successful, you can replace the original ranking of these reserve members, and you can continue to challenge, up to twice."

"Once the challenge is successful, the reward will be ten times higher than the normal ranking reward."

"For example, if you challenge the 1000th place, the normal reward is 10000 divine crystals. If you succeed in today's challenge, it will be divine crystals."

"But if you fail the challenge... you will also lose the opportunity to enter the trial camp." Chiyan Zhenshen said: "Think carefully about what to choose."

A silence.

Everyone has understood.

There are two paths. One path is to take the trial channel. Although there are no extra rewards, you can at least practice in the trial camp for five years.

The other way is the challenge, where super high rewards are accompanied by super high risks.

How to make a choice is, in a sense, also a test for all trial-takers.

A full ten seconds later.

"Has anyone chosen to challenge the reserve members?" True Saint Chi Yan said in a low voice, "If so, fly into the air."

immediately.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Dozens of figures flew out from the thousands of teams... Apparently there were still quite a few Flying-level warriors who were confident in their own abilities.

Li Yuan was naturally among them.

The rewards are tempting.

If you challenge the lowest 100 people and succeed, you will get 10,000 divine crystals.

"Okay, there are still many brave people." True God Chiyang nodded slightly: "Just tell me the ranking you want to challenge."

"One hundred."

"One hundred."

"One hundred."

……

"One Hundred"

...Among the more than thirty flying-level geniuses who chose to challenge, almost all of them chose the one hundred.

After all, one must first strive for a guaranteed ranking to avoid being eliminated directly and sent back to the Kingdom of God, otherwise it would be too unfair.

"Tenth place." A voice suddenly sounded.

The voice was not loud, but mixed with dozens of voices of "one hundred", it seemed extremely abrupt.

moment.

Whether it was the tens of thousands of flying demigod geniuses below, or the thousands of virtual gods on the viewing platform, their eyes were all focused on that figure - Li Yuan.

"Tenth place? That's crazy!"

"As expected of Xu Yuan."

"really!"

"He challenged the tenth place for the first time. What is Li Yuan's real target? Is he really going to challenge the Son of God?"

It was Li Yuan who called out the challenge for the tenth place.

"Going straight to the first place? It's a bit risky. It would be unfair if I fail. 100th place? Too conservative. The tenth place should be a more appropriate minimum reward." Li Yuan thought it through: "After I succeed in challenging the tenth place, it won't be too late to challenge the first place."

Anyway, there are two chances to challenge, so there is no need to be too crazy.

In Li Yuan's opinion, the 100th place winner would be rewarded with 10,000 divine crystals, so what about the 10th place winner? At least tens of thousands of divine crystals should be rewarded.

"tenth?"

A hint of surprise flashed across True God Chiyang's eyes. After seeing that it was Li Yuan, a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Well, it's been a long time since anyone dared to directly challenge the tenth."

"Xu Yuan!"

"Then let's start with you."

The True God Chiyang waved his hand.

Rumble~ A huge void arena appeared in the void again. On one side of the arena, hundreds of figures gathered, and their auras all seemed to be at the flying level.

Obviously, they are all Feitian-level reserve members of Juexing Ancient City, and have been practicing in Juexing Ancient City for at least twenty years.

"Ji Yan!"

"Someone is challenging you, get ready for battle." The voice of True God Chiyang boomed and spread to the empty arena.

"Xu Yuan, enter the ring."
