Chapter 574 Distribution of Power in the Origin Realm
In the Origin Realm, the hierarchy is even more rigid than in the workplace.
The top three divine families were once wealthy, and they are still wealthy now.
Counting down, the ten holy lands are all lineages of deities, passed down for hundreds of millions of years.
However, their divine beings either failed to transcend, perished after their lifespans expired, or disappeared without a trace.
However, the Holy Land still possesses its foundation, with a peak ninth-level Great Emperor ancestor presiding over it and the foundation left behind by a God Venerable powerhouse.
The number of powerful emperors is countless, and their influence should not be underestimated.
The foremost of the Ten Sacred Sites is Divine Sword Mountain.
It inherits the lineage of the Sword Dao God, who failed to transcend and whose physical body shattered, but a wisp of sword intent remained in the mountain, lingering for millions of years.
The gate of Shenjian Mountain is shaped like a sword.
A hundred-foot-tall stone sword is stuck in the mountain pass, its tip pointing downwards and its hilt pointing upwards, with two words engraved on it: "Divine Sword".
Within the strokes of those two characters lies a wisp of sword intent left behind by that deity.
Every new disciple must walk under that sword before entering the sect.
Those who have walked through it, those who are alive.
Those who couldn't make it through died.
This is not an exaggeration, it's true.
That wisp of sword intent will sweep away your roots, your mind, and your understanding.
If you can withstand it, the sword intent will leave a mark on your body, making your future cultivation twice as effective.
If you can't withstand it, the sword intent will shatter your soul.
Shenjian Mountain accepts three hundred disciples every year, but less than half of them survive.
But all of the more than one hundred survivors were sword prodigies.
The leading figure of this generation is Jian Wuxin.
As his name suggests, he is heartless and emotionless.
He entered the sect at the age of seven. When he walked under the stone sword, the sword intent suddenly surged three times, almost splitting him in two.
But he withstood it, and even managed to grab a wisp of sword intent and tuck it into his dantian.
From that day on, his swordsmanship progressed by leaps and bounds. At twenty, he became a Saint Venerable; at fifty, a half-step Great Emperor at the peak; and now he is less than a hundred years old.
Some people say he should have become an emperor long ago, but he's holding back because he's waiting for the right opportunity.
Nobody knows what triggered it.
The second-ranked one is Dan Ding Valley.
It inherits the lineage of the Alchemy God, who failed to transcend but left behind a God-level alchemy furnace that has burned for millions of years.
The entrance to Dan Ding Valley is a furnace cauldron.
The way Dan Ding Valley accepts disciples is different from others.
Others are tested on fighting skills, talent, or physical constitution; they are tested on eating.
Each person was given a pill to swallow.
Those who can withstand the pressure, stay.
Those that can't withstand the weight, carry them away.
That elixir was made using a recipe left behind by that deity.
It contains twelve kinds of poisonous herbs, nine kinds of ferocious beast cores, and seven kinds of potent spiritual medicines. After eating it, your whole body's meridians will feel like they are on fire.
Those who can withstand it will have their meridians widened three times and their dantian expanded five times.
Those who couldn't withstand it died from the poison.
Every year, Dan Ding Valley recruits five hundred disciples, half of whom die from overeating.
Those who remained were monsters raised in medicine baskets.
The leading figure of this generation is Danqingzi.
He entered the sect at the age of twelve. When he took that pill, while others were writhing on the ground in pain, he sat there meditating with a smile on his face.
He guided the toxicity of the pill to his limbs and bones, tempering his body, while the remaining three-tenths of the medicinal power went into his dantian.
On the day of the breakthrough, the entire valley was filled with the fragrance of medicine; just one whiff of it could increase one's cultivation by three years.
Dan Qingzi is currently less than a hundred years old, at the peak of the half-step Great Emperor realm, at the ninth level of enlightenment, and possesses profound alchemy skills. It is said that he can already refine Emperor-level pills.
The third-ranked sect is the Array Dao Sect.
It inherits the lineage of the Array Dao God Venerable. That God Venerable failed to transcend, but left behind a God Venerable-level array that cannot be broken by anyone other than two God Venerables.
The disciples of the Array Dao Sect study that great array every day.
Someone comprehended a peerless formation and became an overnight sensation.
Some people go mad and become insane.
The leader of this generation is called Wuji, who is less than a hundred years old, at the peak of the half-step Great Emperor, and has reached the ninth level of enlightenment. His array formations are unique.
With a single strike, it can trap ten thousand enemies and seal the heavens and earth.
The remaining seven holy sites each have their own unique methods.
A disciple of the Talisman Saint Sect can create a talisman with a single stroke, and the world will change color.
The leader of this generation is Fu Qianhua, who is less than a hundred years old, at the peak of the half-step Great Emperor, and at the ninth level of enlightenment.
A disciple of the Weapon Saint Sect unleashed a divine weapon with a single hammer blow.
The leader was named Qi Zhongshan, a burly man standing nine feet tall, who could smash a mountain with a single hammer blow.
The weapons he forged often sold for exorbitant prices, yet they were still in short supply.
A disciple of the Body Saint Sect shattered a star with a single punch.
The leader was named Ti Wushuang, whose physical body had become a saint. He stood there motionless, and even a full-force attack from a peak Saint Venerable could not leave a mark on him.
The disciples of the Soul Saint Sect can kill with a single thought.
The leader is a man of few words, true to his name; he doesn't like to talk, but no one dares to mess with him.
Disciples of the Beast Saint Sect command the obedience of all beasts.
The leader, Professor Wuji, is covered in beast tattoos and can communicate with any ferocious beast. He once subdued an Emperor-level ferocious beast.
The disciples of the Water Saint Sect overturned rivers and seas.
The leader is named Shui Wuhen, whose single thought can cause rivers to flow backward.
The disciples of the Fire Saint Sect can burn the heavens and boil the seas.
The leader is named Huo Fentian, and as he walks, the temperature within a radius of a hundred miles soars to a hundred degrees.
Every leader of a holy land is a prodigy, a genius who could have easily ruled an era in the past.
Beneath the Ten Holy Lands lie Thirty-Six Imperial Clans.
Those families have been passed down for tens of millions of years, their foundations are so deep that they cannot be fathomed, and their younger generation is also full of geniuses, with their understanding of the Great Dao being at least seven levels or above.
In any other era, any one of these people could have dominated the scene for tens of thousands of years.
But now?
They're all crammed together.
The convergence of the cosmic fortunes of all realms in the Origin Realm has caused geniuses and prodigies to emerge as if they were free.
Some say this is the restoration of the natural order, some say it is the coming of a great era, and others say it is a final burst of life before a catastrophe.
Nobody can say for sure.
But everyone can sense that this era is different.
Every day someone breaks through barriers, every day someone rises to prominence, every day someone writes a legend.
But whatever it may be, this era is destined to be recorded in history.
Countless geniuses rose to prominence in this era, and countless legends were written in this era.
The best among them may become gods of this era, legends of all realms.
It's not impossible that someone will emerge who transcends this!
However, no one in the Primordial Realm knew that in a place called Tianyuan Continent...
One person is rising rapidly at an incredible speed and in an extraordinary way!
