Chapter 528: The Thousand Sect Competition Begins

"Has he already broken through from the Immortal Emperor Late Stage to the God King Peak in such a short time?"

Wu Yidao's expression was grave as he thought to himself.

One must know that the Desolate Ancient Holy Lord had only left the Xuanyuan Realm for a hundred million years, yet he had broken through from the Immortal Emperor Late Stage to the God King Peak; it could only be described as terrifying.

Shaking his head, Wu Yidao stopped thinking about this. Given a hundred million years, his own achievements would only be more terrifying than those of the Desolate Ancient Holy Lord.

Just now, from the Grand Elder, Wu Yidao had also learned that the Desolate Ancient Holy Lord had only appeared in the Ten Thousand Laws Domain for a few hundred years before heading off in the direction of the Central Void.

"I should resolve the crisis currently facing the Wudao Sect before leaving. Since I have news of the Desolate Ancient Holy Lord, there is no need to rush."

Wu Yidao thought to himself, deciding to resolve the crisis facing the Wudao Sect first.

…

Time passed in the blink of an eye, and soon the time for the Thousand Sect Competition to begin arrived.

Standing before God Lord Wan Guang were Holy Son Yifan and the others. Aside from Holy Son Yifan, the Disciples of the Myriad Radiance Sect all had extremely nervous expressions on their faces.

After all, what awaited them next was a life-or-death trial; if they were not careful, they could truly die inside.

Noticing the Disciples' behavior, God Lord Wan Guang shook his head and spoke in a serious tone.

"In a moment, the Eight Desolations Sect will leave a mark on your bodies to observe your situation. If you wish to admit defeat, just speak up, and the elders of the Eight Desolations Sect will teleport you out."

"Yes, Sect Master."

All the Disciples nodded solemnly in response.

After giving his instructions, God Lord Wan Guang looked at Holy Son Yifan to the side and spoke in a grave tone.

"Yifan, while you are in the God Realm later, if you encounter any Disciples facing a life-or-death crisis, please intervene to protect them if possible."

Hearing this, Holy Son Yifan frowned. In truth, he did not really like doing such things, but since God Lord Wan Guang had asked, he would agree.

Seeing Holy Son Yifan nod in agreement, God Lord Wan Guang finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the surrounding Myriad Radiance Sect Disciples also breathed a sigh of relief.

They naturally knew of Holy Son Yifan's strength, so with his protection this time, they felt things would surely be secure.

But the next second, Holy Son Yifan continued.

"If they provoke others, I will not intervene."

"Understood. If they know they are overestimating their capabilities and go looking for death, you do not need to intervene in such situations."

God Lord Wan Guang nodded in agreement.

Soon, the Myriad Radiance Sect Disciples, led by God Lord Wan Guang, headed in the direction outside the Eight Barren Territories.

The Eight Desolations Divine Realm was not located within the Eight Barren Territories, but in a place near the Eight Barren Territories.

Before long, God Lord Wan Guang brought the Myriad Radiance Sect Disciples to the front of the Eight Desolations Divine Realm. Upon arriving, all the Disciples were shocked by the incredibly magnificent entrance to the God Realm before them.

Before them stood a massive Divine Realm Gate; looking at it, everyone felt incredibly small, like ants.

But Holy Son Yifan's expression remained unchanged; after all, he had seen similar situations many times and was naturally accustomed to it.

Soon, God Lord Wan Guang brought the Myriad Radiance Sect Disciples to the front of the Sects participating in the Thousand Sect Competition.

Perhaps God Lord Wan Guang was an incredibly powerful existence within the territory of the Myriad Radiance Sect, but standing before the various Sect Masters of the Thousand Sect Competition, he did not appear very powerful.

After all, God Lord Wan Guang was only at the God Paragon Early Stage, while those at the God Paragon Middle Stage and Late Stage were everywhere at the scene, and there were even some at the God-Venerable Peak.

Soon, God Lord Wan Guang brought the Myriad Radiance Sect Disciples before a powerhouse and spoke in an extremely respectful tone.

"Elder Chen."

The powerhouse whom God Lord Wan Guang addressed as Elder Chen opened his eyes, looked calmly at the Myriad Radiance Sect Disciples behind God Lord Wan Guang, and spoke in a flat tone.

"Hmm, these are the Disciples of your Myriad Radiance Sect, right? They are indeed unusual."

Although Elder Chen was looking at the Myriad Radiance Sect Disciples, Holy Son Yifan could feel that the other party's gaze was constantly on him.

God Lord Wan Guang could not help but laugh upon hearing this.

"Elder Chen is joking. Compared to the Disciples of the Eight Desolations Sect, my Myriad Radiance Sect still needs more training."

"Alright, don't be modest. I know the situation of my Eight Desolations Sect."

After Elder Chen finished speaking, he waved his hand, and marks were imprinted into the bodies of the Myriad Radiance Sect Disciples. The Disciples naturally noticed this.

Holy Son Yifan's expression was grave; he did not like the feeling of being imprinted with a mark. If it were not for obtaining the Profound Origin Fruit, he would have erased the mark in his body long ago.

"Alright, go rest on the side. The Eight Desolations Divine Realm will still take about three days to open; just enter when the time comes."

After imprinting the marks, Elder Chen said.

After expressing his gratitude once more, God Lord Wan Guang led the Myriad Radiance Sect Disciples away to wait.

After God Lord Wan Guang and the others left, Elder Chen narrowed his eyes, looked in the direction of Holy Son Yifan, and muttered to himself.

"It seems that this time, the Sect Master's youngest Disciple is going to encounter a worthy opponent."

But Elder Chen did not care about this. They were all powerhouses; how could they interfere in the struggles between the younger generation?

Although Holy Son Yifan was in the Heavenly God Realm, in front of Elder Chen, who was at the God Paragon Late Stage, there was no difference between him and the other juniors.

Meanwhile, God Lord Wan Guang brought the Myriad Radiance Sect Disciples to an empty area to wait.

While waiting, God Lord Wan Guang spoke in an extremely grave tone.

"Three days from now, you will enter the Eight Desolations Divine Realm. At that time, you will fight within the Eight Desolations Divine Realm, and it will only end when there is only one person left standing."

"Additionally, when you enter the Eight Desolations Divine Realm, you will be randomly teleported to some location within it, so pay attention to your safety. If the situation is not right, forfeit immediately."

Hearing this, Holy Son Yifan finally spoke, looking at God Lord Wan Guang with a hint of gravity in his tone.

"Sect Master, I wonder how large the Eight Desolations Divine Realm actually is?"

"How large? I have never been inside either. I only know that the Eight Desolations Divine Realm was created by the Eight Desolations Divine Emperor. No one knows its size; it is said that even the elders of the Eight Desolations Sect have never been inside. The situation within can only be controlled by the Eight Desolations Divine Emperor."

God Lord Wan Guang shook his head, his tone extremely serious.

Holy Son Yifan nodded, but his heart began to grow grave. For some reason, after arriving at the Eight Desolations Divine Realm, he vaguely sensed a feeling of unease.

One must know that for a powerhouse of his level, he would not generate a feeling of unease for no reason.

"So, is there something wrong with the Eight Desolations Divine Realm before us?"

"But even if there is something wrong, I must go in. After all, this is a great opportunity to obtain the Profound Origin Fruit."

The Profound Origin Fruit is extremely precious, even for Divine Venerable powerhouses. But what is most terrifying is that it is extremely rare throughout the entire Divine Realm; even a God Emperor might not be able to obtain one.

Although he did not know why the Eight Desolations Divine Emperor would take out the Profound Origin Fruit as a reward, Holy Son Yifan knew that this was the best way for him to obtain the Profound Origin Fruit at the moment.

Therefore, even if there were traps ahead, Holy Son Yifan would step in without hesitation.
