Chapter 475: Ascension Conference, Eastern Domain Divine Continent

Xing Chen had now reached the Immortal King Realm, First Layer. In a place like the Chaotic Demon Sea, he truly had no future.

If he could enter the Xuantian Sect, it would be a good choice.

Zhou Chen nodded. "Very well."

"However, I will not go out of my way to look after you."

"Whether you can pass the Ascension Conference depends entirely on your own ability."

Xing Chen was overjoyed. "Thank you, Senior!"

"I understand. I will never cause any trouble for Senior."

Zhou Chen waved his hand. "Go prepare. We depart in three days."

Xing Chen bowed with his hands clasped and turned to leave.

Zhou Chen watched his retreating back, a trace of thought flashing in his eyes.

The Ascension Conference?

It was indeed a good Opportunity.

He had stayed in the Chaotic Demon Sea for so long; it was time to leave.

The Eastern Domain Divine Continent was the true Holy Land of cultivation.

There, more Opportunities awaited.

Zhou Chen pulled back his thoughts and continued his secluded Cultivation.

Three days later.

Zhou Chen and Xing Chen stepped onto the teleportation array to the Eastern Domain Divine Continent together.

The Star Sea Merchant Guild's teleportation array could go directly to the border city of the Eastern Domain Divine Continent—Tianyuan City.

However, the teleportation fee was extremely expensive.

It cost ten million supreme grade immortal crystals per person.

Xing Chen gritted his teeth and paid the fee, while Zhou Chen was indifferent.

In his Storage Ring, he had tens of billions of supreme grade immortal crystals alone.

This small teleportation fee was not worth mentioning to him.

The teleportation array activated.

A dazzling light enveloped the two of them.

In the next moment, they disappeared from the spot.

When they opened their eyes again, they had arrived in a massive city.

Tianyuan City.

This city spanned ten million miles, magnificent and grand.

The city walls were ten thousand zhang high, cast entirely from an unknown white rock, emitting a faint Immortal Spiritual Power aura.

The walls were covered in ancient runes.

These runes contained a powerful defensive Magic Array.

Zhou Chen's Divine Sense swept over the walls, and his eyebrows twitched slightly.

The city's defensive Magic Array had actually reached the Immortal Emperor level.

Even a powerhouse at the Tenth Layer Immortal King Realm might not be able to break it.

"As expected of the Eastern Domain Divine Continent."

Zhou Chen murmured to himself.

Xing Chen stood beside him, his eyes full of shock.

"Senior, is this the Eastern Domain Divine Continent?"

"It really is far more prosperous than the Chaotic Demon Sea."

Zhou Chen nodded without speaking.

The two walked out of the teleportation array and entered Tianyuan City.

Inside the city, Cultivators were everywhere.

The lowest cultivation among these Cultivators was the True Immortal Realm.

Cultivators of the Immortal King Realm could also be seen everywhere.

Zhou Chen even sensed several auras at the ninth layer of the Immortal King Realm.

"The Eastern Domain Divine Continent truly is a place where experts are as common as clouds."

Zhou Chen thought to himself.

The two walked around the city and found an inn to stay in.

The innkeeper was a Cultivator of the True Immortal Realm Tenth Layer, and his attitude was respectful.

"Honored guests, what kind of room do you need?"

Xing Chen spoke up: "Two premium rooms."

The innkeeper nodded: "Certainly. Two premium rooms, ten thousand supreme grade immortal crystals per day."

Xing Chen's expression changed slightly.

Ten thousand supreme grade immortal crystals a day?

That was too expensive.

However, he still gritted his teeth and paid the money.

Zhou Chen glanced at him and said plainly: "If you lack immortal crystals, I can lend you some."

Xing Chen quickly shook his head: "Thank you, Senior, but I can still manage."

Zhou Chen nodded and said nothing more.

The two entered their rooms to rest.

Zhou Chen sat cross-legged, his Divine Sense sweeping through Tianyuan City.

There were many Cultivators in Tianyuan City.

However, most Cultivators had golden or multicolored Luck.

Cultivators with a three-colored fate were quite common.

Zhou Chen even discovered a few Cultivators with a five-colored fate.

However, these five-colored fate Cultivators did not have high cultivation levels.

Most were in the True Immortal Realm or the first or second layer of the Immortal King Realm.

Clearly, they were all here to participate in the Ascension Conference.

Zhou Chen withdrew his Divine Sense and closed his eyes to Cultivate.

Time passed minute by minute.

Three days later.

The Ascension Conference officially began.

Hundreds of thousands of Cultivators gathered at the central plaza of Tianyuan City.

These Cultivators were all here to participate in the Ascension Conference.

In the center of the plaza, a massive high platform had been built.

Dozens of Xuantian Sect Elders stood on the platform.

The lowest cultivation among these Elders was the Fifth Layer Immortal King Realm.

The leading Elder had even reached the ninth layer of the Immortal King Realm.

He wore a cyan robe, had a majestic face, and his entire body radiated a terrifying aura.

"Everyone."

The Elder spoke, his voice echoing across the plaza.

"I am the Xuantian Sect Outer Sect Deacon Elder, named Qing Yun."

"This Ascension Conference is divided into three trials."

"The first trial tests cultivation Foundation."

"The second trial tests combat power."

"The third trial tests the Dao Heart."

"Those who pass all three trials may enter the Xuantian Sect as an Outer Sect Disciple."

"The top ten may even directly become an Inner Sect Disciple."

As his voice fell, the Cultivators in the plaza became excited.

Inner Sect Disciples were the mid-level strength of the Xuantian Sect, with a status far exceeding that of Outer Sect Disciples.

Elder Qing Yun continued: "Now, the first trial begins."

As the words were spoken.

A massive Magic Array suddenly emerged in the center of the plaza.

The Magic Array emitted a faint golden light, containing a terrifying pressure.

"This is the Spirit Testing Array."

Elder Qing Yun spoke.

"You only need to stand in the array and circulate your Immortal Spiritual Power."

"If the purity of your Immortal Spiritual Power reaches the standard, you will pass the first trial."

As he finished, countless Cultivators rushed toward the Magic Array.

However, the Magic Array had limits.

It could only hold a hundred people at a time.

The first batch of Cultivators entered the Magic Array and circulated their Immortal Spiritual Power.

The Magic Array suddenly lit up, emitting a dazzling light.

However, people were soon being repelled by the Magic Array.

These people had ugly expressions; clearly, their Immortal Spiritual Power purity was insufficient.

Batch after batch of Cultivators entered the Magic Array.

Less than thirty percent were able to pass.

Zhou Chen and Xing Chen stood in the crowd, waiting quietly.

Finally, it was their batch's turn.

Zhou Chen stepped into the Magic Array, with Xing Chen following closely behind.

The Magic Array activated.

A terrifying pressure erupted from the Magic Array, enveloping everyone.

Zhou Chen's expression was calm as he circulated his Immortal Spiritual Power.

The purity of his Origin Immortal Qi far exceeded ordinary Immortal Spiritual Power.

Almost instantly, the Magic Array let out a soft chime.

A pillar of golden light descended from the sky, enveloping Zhou Chen.

"Pass!"

Elder Qing Yun's voice rang out.

Zhou Chen withdrew his Immortal Spiritual Power and stepped out of the Magic Array.

Xing Chen also circulated his Immortal Spiritual Power.

Under Zhou Chen's guidance, his Immortal Spiritual Power purity had already reached an extremely high level.

The Magic Array similarly let out a soft chime, and a pillar of golden light enveloped him.

"Pass!"

Xing Chen breathed a sigh of relief and stepped out of the Magic Array.

However, out of this batch of a hundred people, only thirty passed.

The remaining seventy were all eliminated.

The first trial alone had eliminated seventy percent of the Cultivators.

This showed how high the Xuantian Sect's standards were.

Elder Qing Yun scanned the crowd and spoke: "Cultivators who passed the first trial, please proceed to the east plaza to prepare for the second trial's assessment."

Zhou Chen and Xing Chen followed the crowd to the east plaza.

In the east plaza, another high platform had been built.

Standing on the platform was another Xuantian Sect Elder.

This Elder's cultivation was also at the ninth layer of the Immortal King Realm.
