The Nine Heavens Continent, the Chaos Sacred Land.
As one of the most powerful holy lands at one time, it has begun to fade away since the Chaos Emperor ascended to immortality.
...
Today was the day that the Chaos Sacred Land opened its doors to accept disciples.
The nearby kingdoms, large and small, and noble families have sent their geniuses to come and pay homage to their masters.
Although the Chaos Sacred Land had fallen into decline, it was still one of the top powers when looking at the entire Nine Heavens Continent.
Therefore, there was still an endless stream of people coming to learn from their masters, and there were mountains of people.
"Finally, I've entered the Chaos Sacred Land, and I've finally completed the first mission issued by the system!"
It took Xiao Yun nine oxen and two tigers to finally follow the crowd and squeeze into the Chaos Sacred Land mountain gate in front of him, entering the wide square within the Chaos Sacred Land.
Ignoring the chattering voices around him, Xiao Yun hurriedly closed his eyes to check the system within his body.
Epiphany System.
Function:Grants the host an epiphany.
Number of epiphanies:1 (Use at any time by silently reciting in your mind).
Mission:Enter the Chaos Sacred Land (completed), mission will be refreshed soon.
Looking at the mission status which had changed to 'Completed', Xiao Yun was so excited that he was on the verge of tears.
It wasn't easy, it had been sixteen years since he came to this world, and he had finally completed the first quest issued by the system.
It had to be said that this quest was too difficult.
After all, even if the Chaos Sacred Land was in decline, it was still a hallowed sacred land, not something that ordinary people could just enter.
Xiao Yun came from a noble family in a small kingdom, and with their family's strength, they simply could not send him to the Chaos Sacred Land in advance.
Therefore, Xiao Yun had waited for sixteen years before he finally waited for the day when the Chaos Sacred Land opened to accept disciples, and only then did he mix in and complete the first quest issued by the system.
"Ding, latest mission:Join the Chaos Sacred Land, reward three epiphanies."
Suddenly, a mechanical voice of the system rang out in Xiao Yun's mind.
Xiao Yun immediately understood that his second mission had come, and this time, the reward was even more generous, a full three epiphanies.
One had to know that an epiphany was when a cultivator unexpectedly formed a state of resonance with the Great Dao while enlightening it, thus entering a mysterious realm.
The chances of this happening were so small that even geniuses would only have an epiphany once in a lifetime.
Even for those demons and super geniuses, I am afraid that they will only have two or three epiphanies in their lifetime.
This shows how rare this opportunity for an epiphany is.
Therefore, even though his system only had this one function, Xiao Yun didn't mind it at all.
"Join the Chaos Sacred Land?"
Xiao Yun looked at his latest mission and couldn't help but grin, "It's fine, since I've come to the Chaos Sacred Land, then of course I have to join the Chaos Sacred Land."
Although the Chaos Sacred Land had fallen, a thin camel was bigger than a horse, not to mention that the Chaos Sacred Land was still one of the most powerful forces in this heaven and earth.
Being able to enter the Chaos Sacred Land to cultivate would undoubtedly give him a better chance of becoming a supreme power.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yun squeezed through the crowd and looked towards the high platform in front of him.
On the high platform in the square, there was a kind-eyed old man sitting cross-legged, wearing a grey robe, and his eyes were incomparably profound, like the cosmic stars, making it impossible for people to look directly at him.
"I am the Receiving Elder, responsible for receiving you for the examination!" The grey-robed old man said with a smile, a hint of anticipation showing in his gaze.
This session, I wonder if a few demons or immortal seedlings could emerge.
If not, it would be good to have a few super geniuses.
The Elder Receiver secretly thought, and then continued in a loud voice, "Alright, enough of the nonsense, we don't have so many rules and regulations in the Chaos Sacred Land, and there is only one level in the disciple acceptance test, and that is ringing the Chaos Bell!"
With those words, Elder Receiver flicked his finger and a huge gap opened up in the space in front of him. With that, golden light shot out in all directions, and a large, ancient grey bell flew out from the spatial crack and landed on the square.
"Buzz ..."
As this great bell fell, it emitted a deafening ringing sound, like a deity chanting and an angel singing, causing the souls of everyone present to tremble.
"This is the Chaos Bell, the legendary divine weapon of the Great Emperors!"
"Legend has it that a long time ago, the Chaos Emperor wielded this bell and conquered the nine heavens and ten lands, sweeping through the heavens and ten realms, invincible."
"Even if we ranked all the emperor weapons in the heavens and the worlds, this bell would be enough to rank in the top three!"
...
There was a lot of chatter in the square.
Those who were able to come to the examination were at worst from noble families of small countries, so naturally, each and every one of them had seen extraordinary things.
Xiao Yun hid in the crowd and looked at the Chaos Bell not far away, and he too was coveting it for a while.
If he possessed such a treasure, he would be able to go anywhere in the world.
Unfortunately, this thing was an imperial weapon, not something he was qualified to be able to control right now.
"Line up and place your palms on the Chaos Bell one by one. As long as you can make the Chaos Bell ring, you will become disciples of our Chaos Sacred Land."
At this moment, Elder Receiver said once again.
Hearing this, the crowd began to line up, one by one, to touch the Chaos Bell.
But not only did the Chaos Bell not ring, it instead released a golden glow that teleported away those who touched it.
The crowd was in a state of panic.
The Receiving Elder said loudly, "Don't panic, the Imperial Armies have spirits, once they are unable to ring the Chaos Bell, then they will be sent to your homes by the Chaos Bell, sort of sparing you from the return journey."
After hearing the words of the Receiver Elder, the crowd then calmed down and continued to touch the Chaos Bell one by one.
Xiao Yun was secretly happy and said, "I didn't expect the Chaos Bell to have this function, even if you can't pass the test, you can still get a free plane ticket to teleport back, hehehe!"
However, Xiao Yun did not want to be sent home by the Chaos Bell, he must join the Chaos Sacred Land.
He just didn't know how this Chaos Bell would be able to be rung.
Xiao Yun stared at the young boys and girls who were touching the Chaos Bell one by one in the distance, but after looking at them for half a day, he couldn't make out a single thing.
This was because as soon as these people touched the Chaos Bell, they closed their eyes and were then transported away by a golden light.
Obviously, these people who were transported away must all be losers.
In this way, the speed of the test was fast.
As time passed little by little, and still no one was able to ring the Chaos Bell, the crowd in the square could not help but worry
"Dang ..."
Soon after, the Chaos Bell finally rang out, a loud bell sound that spread throughout the Chaos Sacred Land.
The crowd was instantly shaken in spirit and looked towards the Chaos Bell in the distance.
They saw a young boy standing in front of the Chaos Bell, his face full of excitement and thrill.
On the high platform, the Receiver Elder said indifferently, "With one bell ringing, you are barely qualified to join our Chaos Sacred Land, but you can only be an outer disciple. Where are the outer sect deacons? Bring him to the outer gate!"
"Yes, Elder!" A black-robed man suddenly flew in from the sky, grabbed the youngster next to the Chaos Bell, and flew off into the distance.
Hearing that this teenager was merely qualified to become an outer disciple, the crowd present could not help but stare.
In their opinion, to be able to ring the Chaos Bell was already very impressive.
But to only become an outer disciple, this Chaos Sacred Ground's examination was too difficult.
I heard someone ask, "May I ask Elder Receiver, how many times can one person ring this Chaos Bell? And what does the number of times this bell rings have to do with the treatment one receives after joining the Chaos Sacred Ground?"
This was the key question.
The crowd all looked at Elder Receiver on the high platform in unison.
Elder Guiding smiled slightly and said, "The Chaos Bell has nine rings, and when it rings once, one can be an outer disciple.
If you ring it twice, you can become an inner disciple.
When it rings three times, one can become a true disciple.
If you ring four times, you can become an Elder Disciple.
If you ring five times, you can become a disciple of the Supreme Elder.
If you ring six times, you can become a holy son of our Chaos Sacred Ground.
As for ringing seven, eight, or nine, they have not appeared for many years, and once they do, then they will immediately become the divine sons of our Chaos Sacred Ground."
Hearing the words of the Receiving Elder, the crowd in the square burst out in yearning.
The examination, still continued.
As time passed, there were fewer and fewer people in the square.
What shocked Xiao Yun was that even after testing hundreds of thousands of people, only a few hundred had joined the Chaos Sacred Land, the odds were too low.
Moreover, among these hundreds of people, the ones who rang out the most were only three rings.
Xiao Yun clearly noticed that on the high platform, the receiving elder's face was all a little ugly, no longer the kind brows he had before, only a gloomy face.
Obviously, the fact that no genius had been found had made this Receiving Elder very disappointed.
"One term is not as good as another, is this really how my Chaos Sacred Ground is going to fall?" The Receiving Elder looked at the youngsters testing one by one below and could not help but sigh long and sadly.
However, he also knew the reason.
But all geniuses would explode with powerful talent at an early age, and thus be recruited away by the other five Great Sacred Grounds.
They, the Chaos Sacred Land, on the other hand, had a strange rule that had been passed down since ancient times.
That was that if you wanted to join the Chaos Sacred Land, you were absolutely not allowed to cultivate any merit techniques before the examination.
As such, the youngsters who came to take the test were actually mortals who had not cultivated.
Those geniuses, on the other hand, had long since stepped into the path of cultivation, so they had no chance of joining the Chaos Sacred Land.
Unfortunately, this was a rule passed down by the old ancestors, and no one dared to change it.
"Finally, it's my turn!"
In the crowd, Xiao Yun looked at the Chaos Bell that was close at hand and was filled with anticipation as he excitedly walked over.
After lining up for so long, it was finally his turn.
"I wonder if I can ring this Chaos Bell?" Xiao Yun probed out his palm and touched towards the ancient bell wall in front of him.
"Boom ..." At once, a tremor ran through Xiao Yun's mind as a golden text, evolving all things in heaven and earth, appeared in his mind, expounding on the Chaos Dao.
At this moment, Xiao Yun instantly understood what he had to do to ring the Chaos Bell.
It turned out that he had to enlighten these golden words, and once he got started, he would be able to ring the Chaos Bell.
And if one comprehended more, the more the Chaos Bell would ring.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yun's heart immediately became certain and he silently said, "System, use an epiphany!"
"Boom!"
Only a boom was heard in his mind, and Xiao Yun's mind instantly became clearer and clearer as one inspiration after another surfaced in his mind, and the golden words in front of him, transforming into one symbol, entered his eyes.
"It turns out that this scripture is called the Chaos Invocation, and once it is practiced, it can borrow the power of the Chaos Bell. The stronger the strength, the stronger the borrowed power will be, and if one is able to reach the sage realm, then one will be able to refine this Chaos Bell."
Xiao Yun was immersed in the mysterious realm of epiphany and immediately understood the mystery of the scripture before him.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yun was unaware that the outside world had already been abuzz with excitement because of his test.
