Chapter 987
The eighth day of the Myriad Gods Mountain.
It was the day the Divine Realm opened.
All the markets on the mountain had already been closed. The various factions that had been fighting openly and covertly over the past few days had all tacitly recalled their troops and laid down their banners and drums, quietly waiting for the opening of the Divine Realm.
In the residence of the Nether Realm, most of the people had already gathered in the courtyard. A portion of them would occasionally raise their heads to look at the sky, as if anticipating something.
Gu Chen was dressed in a black robe with the black hawk that the white ape had transformed into perched on his shoulder. He led the dragon horse in his hand as he walked into the courtyard with a grave expression.
When he appeared, most of the people in the courtyard looked at him with reverence in their eyes.
His performance at the Battle God Banquet three days ago had made Chen Gu's name famous in one battle. The attitude of the Nether Realm towards him had also undergone a huge change.
As everyone looked at Gu Chen, he also looked to the front of the group and noticed that the Nether Realm's group was different from before.
In the past, Saintess Ye Fei would always stand at the front of the group, but today, she stood in the second row. Even the newly born Sacred Son of the Nether Realm was in the same group as her.
At the very front of the group stood three unfamiliar grey-robed men.
The three of them appeared extremely indifferent. Everyone, including the Saintess and Sacred Son of the Nether Realm, appeared somewhat reserved in front of them.
Gu Chen calmly walked forward and spoke politely when he arrived in front of the three. "Greetings to the three Nether Sovereigns."
It was obvious that the three who had appeared on the eve of the opening of the Divine Realm were the current Nether Sovereigns of the Nether Realm, the rulers of the highest level.
They hadn't appeared when they'd come to the Myriad Gods Mountain in order to intimidate the opposing factions. But now that the Divine Realm was about to open, they had no reason not to appear since they would inevitably participate in the conference.
The three Nether Sovereigns nodded in response to Gu Chen's etiquette. Nether Sovereign Xiu Sha, who was in the middle, spoke indifferently. "You're Chen Gu, right? Stand beside Ye Fei."
His words were short, but they caused the hearts of many Nether Sovereigns to tremble.
To a certain extent, one's position represented one's position in the Nether Realm. Lord Xiu Sha's arrangement meant that he placed as much importance on Chen Gu as the Saintess and Sacred Son!
Zheng Xicheng and Ding Han had complicated expressions. Looking at Jiang Baiming and Penglai Island Lord's positions, they realized that their superiors placed more importance on Nether Realm than them.
However, with the memory of this group of people turning the tide that night three days ago, the two of them did not feel dissatisfied at all. They even instinctively felt that it was reasonable and cast envious glances at Gu Chen.
Nether Sovereign Xiu Xiu Sovereign's approval, Gu Gu Chen World. "Gu Gu Chen World Holy Sage World World's Sea.
As he looked at the three Nether Venerables in front of him, Gu Chen did not secretly rejoice at being recognized. Instead, he pondered over their intentions.
Their performance three days ago was indeed outstanding, successfully helping the Nether Realm teach the Thousand Faces Divine Palace a harsh lesson, but at the same time, they also revealed their true strength.
Ordinary members of the Nether Realm might be pleasantly surprised to learn of their strength, but as the rulers, they wouldn't think so simply.
Their strength was a far cry from when they first joined the Nether Realm a few months ago. Gu Chen had thought that the Nether Realm Nether Sovereigns would be vigilant and even question them on the night of the God of War Banquet.
Unexpectedly, they didn't say anything in the past few days. Today, they even seemed to place great importance on them, as if they trusted them completely.
Just as Gu Chen was guessing their intentions, Nether Sovereign Xiu Sha's telepathic message suddenly rang in his mind.
"I don't care where you come from or why you joined the Nether Realm. Since you've passed the Tower of the Nether Emperor, you are now members of the Nether Realm.
"You must do your best in the Divine Grace List. If you can get a good ranking, it might be possible for you, Chen Gu, to be on equal footing with us in the future."
Xiu Sha's telepathic message clearly showed that he was trying to win them over. Gu Chen suddenly understood.
He had only considered that the Nether Sovereigns might be suspicious of their identity and purpose, but he had forgotten that they had already passed the "verification" of the Tower of the Nether Emperor.
It was likely that to the three Nether Sovereigns, their background and purpose were not important. Because once they entered the Tower of the Nether Emperor, they would never be able to get rid of their identity as members of the Nether Realm …
Gu Chen recalled the tragic and heavily injured Emperor of the Nether and smiled as he replied to Nether Sovereign Xiu Sha, expressing his determination to work hard and make a contribution.
He was worried that the Nether Realm's suspicion of him would affect his plans, but now it seemed that he had been worrying too much.
Unfortunately, the Nether Realm's expectations of him were destined to fall through. He had no intention of participating in the ranking competition. He had his own matters to attend to …
Seeing that Gu Chen's attitude was good, Nether Sovereign Xiu Sha was very satisfied. He said nothing more and quietly waited for the opening of the Divine Realm.
They only knew that the Divine Realm would open on the eighth day, but it was hard to say when it would be. Therefore, the tens of millions of cultivators could only restrain their thoughts and raise their heads in anticipation.
When it was almost noon, an abnormality appeared in the sky above Mount Myriad Gods.
Thousands of auspicious lights appeared everywhere in the void. Not long after, the entire heaven and earth were dyed in strange colors by the colorful auspicious clouds that were everywhere.
At this moment, a huge airflow roared. An illusory and magnificent world that seemed to have come from an unknown space appeared in the sky above Mount Myriad Gods!
For a moment, the Mount Myriad Gods was in an uproar. The Divine Realm had appeared!
For the cultivators who were seeing the opening of the Divine Realm for the first time, the scene before them was like a miracle. The world reflected all kinds of spiritual mountains and waterfalls. The Taoist palaces and castles were even more magnificent. They were holy and majestic, causing people to involuntarily have the urge to worship them.
Amidst the countless clamor, after the Divine Realm had manifested to a certain extent, it suddenly stopped moving. It just stopped in a strange space.
"Eh? Why is there no movement? How are we going to enter the Divine Realm like this? "
Instantly, many people were confused. The Divine Realm was obviously quite a distance away from them.
At this moment.
Hum —
Divine dao imprints emerged from the bodies of the cultivators that covered the mountains and plains. They glowed one after another and formed a mysterious connection with the Divine Realm in the sky.
The divine dao imprints of every force were a little different. Some were green, some were purple, and there were all kinds of colors. Even if they were the same color, there were slight differences in shape.
The divine dao imprints in the bodies of tens of millions of cultivators reacted at the same time. Then, with each force in a square formation, everyone's body automatically floated into the sky. It actually seemed like they were ascending into the sky.
Gu Chen felt the feeling of his body flying uncontrollably. He looked at the Island Lord and the others and revealed expressions of joy.
Their previous judgment was right. The Divine Realm really had strict screening standards for the divine dao imprints. If they hadn't joined the Underworld back then, they might not have been able to enter the Divine Realm at all.
The scene of tens of millions of cultivators ascending into the Divine Realm was extremely spectacular. In the process of everyone's body flying into the Divine Realm, they gradually turned illusory. In the instant that they touched the outermost layer of the Divine Realm, they felt like the world was spinning.
Their vision blurred, and countless cultivators found themselves on a vast square. At this moment, there was a group of cultivators dressed in strange robes standing on the stairs in front of them.
"Haha Jie, we are the priests who serve the Lord of the Divine Realm. Welcome to the Divine Realm!"
