"Dang..."
When Xiao Yun just experienced enlightenment, the Chaos Bell began to ring.
Instantly, the young men in the square who hadn't been tested couldn't help but look at Xiao Yun with envy.
Clearly, they also knew that Xiao Yun had passed the assessment.
Even if it was just one ring, it was enough to join the Chaos Sanctuary.
On the high platform, the guiding elder glanced at Xiao Yun and shook his head lightly. He didn't see anything remarkable about Xiao Yun's physique. Obviously, he was not a genius. Perhaps he could only make one sound.
But at that moment...
"Dang..."
Another sound rang out, and the Chaos Bell trembled, releasing waves of golden light.
Those who hadn't been tested on the square couldn't help but feel jealous when they looked at Xiao Yun.
Two rings were enough to become an inner disciple.
The guiding elder on the high platform looked at Xiao Yun with some surprise. He didn't expect this seemingly ordinary young man to make the Chaos Bell ring twice. He had underestimated him.
"Dang..."
The third sound rang out.
This time, not only the young men on the square were shocked, but even the guiding elder on the high platform showed a surprised expression.
"What's going on? He doesn't seem to have any special physique, and his spiritual energy is insufficient. It's already surprising enough that he can make the Chaos Bell ring once, how is it possible for it to ring three times?" The guiding elder was puzzled.
Actually, at his level, he didn't need the Chaos Bell test at all. His discerning eyes were enough to see the talent of an ordinary person.
In fact, the talents of the young men who were tested before were within his expectations.
He had accurately calculated who could ring the Chaos Bell and how many times.
But only this ordinary young man in front of him made him miscalculate.
"According to reason, this child shouldn't even be able to ring the Chaos Bell once, how can he ring it three times?" The guiding elder was full of doubts.
And at that moment...
"Dang..."
The fourth sound rang out.
The whole square was in an uproar, and everyone was shocked.
The guiding elder on the high platform also couldn't remain calm. He couldn't help but stand up, his eyes filled with intense excitement, and he stared at Xiao Yun intently.
Four rings, according to the rules, he could already become an elder disciple.
Someone like this could be called a super genius.
But what puzzled the guiding elder was that he couldn't see anything "extraordinary" in Xiao Yun.
"What's going on? Have my discerning eyes been clouded after using them too much?" The guiding elder couldn't help but use his spiritual energy to cleanse his discerning eyes. His eyes suddenly brightened, and he stared at Xiao Yun's body again.
However, Xiao Yun still appeared ordinary and average in his eyes, not like a super genius.
"Dang..."
The fifth sound rang out.
The people in the square were already numbed by the shock.
The guiding elder could no longer maintain his composure. He couldn't help but stand up, his eyes emitting a fervent light as he stared intently at Xiao Yun.
At the same time, within the Chaos Sanctuary, several powerful divine senses traversed the void, probing inward.
Evidently, with the Chaos Bell ringing five times, it had alarmed some of the experts within the Chaos Sanctuary.
"Dang..."
The sixth chime resounded.
Xiao Yun, standing beside the Chaos Bell, began to float, and his ordinary body gradually emitted a faint golden light.
"This... This is a blessing!"
"The Chaos Bell has actually bestowed its blessing upon him!"
"How is this possible?"
...
Powerful divine thoughts from within the Chaos Sanctum probed the surroundings, ancient whispers resounded in the void.
Clearly, with the sixth chime, the Chaos Sanctum had been thoroughly alarmed.
After all, according to the rules, such a genius could already become a scion of the Chaos Sanctum.
If lucky, they might even become the future Lord of the Chaos Sanctum, wielding the immense power of one of the six great sanctums.
"I've misjudged, truly misjudged. I never expected an ordinary youth to cause the Chaos Bell to chime six times."
On the high platform, the Elder in charge couldn't help but wear an expression of surprise and overwhelming excitement.
With six chimes, his aptitude was comparable to a monstrosity. Even if there were no more geniuses to come, the Elder would no longer be disappointed.
After all, one monstrosity was worth tens of thousands of geniuses.
"Dang..."
However, before the Elder could revel in his joy, the seventh chime of the Chaos Bell rang out.
Instantly, the Elder's expression changed drastically.
The Chaos Bell in the square released streams of golden light, illuminating the entire world.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yun, with his eyes closed, sat cross-legged beside the Chaos Bell, continuously cleansed by the golden light emanating from it.
A massive white light barrier gradually enveloped Xiao Yun, making him appear like an unborn baby inside its mother's womb.
"Cleaning the muscles and marrow, returning to the mother's womb... This..." On the high platform, the Elder stared fixedly at Xiao Yun, his face full of astonishment.
The seventh chime!
The Chaos Bell spontaneously aided this individual in cleansing his muscles and marrow, washing away acquired energies, and reverting him to a state akin to an unborn baby.
"It's actually cleaning the muscles and marrow..."
"The Chaos Bell has rung seven times. Our Chaos Sanctum hasn't seen such a monstrosity in a long time. Truly, we are blessed."
"Hahaha, just as I came out of seclusion, such a monstrosity has joined our Chaos Sanctum. I shall take this kid as my disciple, and no one can snatch him from me."
"Immortal Patriarch, if you want to snatch my disciple from me, you still have a long way to go."
"I'm not afraid of you!"
...
In the void, as the seventh chime of the Chaos Bell resounded, terrifying divine thoughts swept out from within the Chaos Sanctum.
Especially two dreadful auras, like ancient behemoths awakening, exuded an overwhelming momentum that tore apart the clouds in the sky.
The space above the Chaos Sanctum shattered like glass in the clash between a black fist and a purple thunderbolt.
"Hiss, even the long-slumbering Immortal Patriarch and Thunder Patriarch have been alarmed."
On the high platform, the Elder felt the terror of those two auras and was shaken to the core.
Those two Patriarchs were superpowerful beings from the previous era, who had been asleep for thousands of years. Yet, they were still disturbed.
From this, one could see how rare it was for the Chaos Bell to chime seven times.
"Quickly, find out this child's name and origin!" The Elder looked towards Xiao Yun not far away while sending a message to the attendants below.
"Dang..."
The eighth chime of the Chaos Bell resounded.
The Elder trembled all over, his face filled with incredulity as he looked at Xiao Yun, his eyes brimming with shock.
The eighth chime.
The Chaos Bell hadn't chimed eight times in how many years?
How many years had it been since their Chaos Sanctum had seen such a monstrous talent?
"Now those old monsters will come out to snatch disciples." The Elder murmured.
As if confirming the Elder's words, deep within the forbidden grounds of the Chaos Sanctum, the coffin lids of countless coffins were blasted open. Ancient and pallid hands emerged from the pitch-black coffins.
The petrified remains of the Chaos Sanctum, at this moment, climbed out of their coffins, summoning their battle spirits from the depths of darkness, unleashing powerful soul fluctuations.
"This is my disciple! Whoever dares to snatch, I shall suppress them in the toilet pit for ten thousand years!" A domineering declaration echoed through the sky, causing myriad Dao to tremble in response.
