Chapter 1288: The Ten Great Sacred Gates!

TL: Etude

Upon entering this independent space, Ye Tian’s Copy Body Talent instantly covered the area, and he discovered at least a million Half-Step Domain Ancestors.

“Just this independent space alone has so many Half-Step Domain Ancestors. How many are there in the entire Battle Realm Pagoda?”

Ye Tian was astonished.

He realized he had previously greatly underestimated the number of Half-Step Domain Ancestors here. He thought those at the Battle Stage were all of them, but now it seemed they were merely the tip of the iceberg.

“First, allow me to formally introduce myself. I am a Holy Maiden from the Zhenyuan Sacred Land in the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain!” Dao Ancestor Mingyu introduced herself.

“Zhenyuan Sacred Land…?”

Ye Tian had never heard of this force and knew practically nothing about its strength.

In fact, he had hardly heard of any forces from the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain, and his understanding of that region was extremely limited.

“It’s normal for Dao Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws to be unaware. Allow me to briefly introduce our Zhenyuan Sacred Land. Our sacred land possesses several Invincible Domain Ancestors, numerous Pinnacle Domain Ancestors, and a large number of Top-tier, Elite, and Ordinary Domain Ancestors. Moreover, we have hundreds of thousands of Half-Step Domain Ancestors and countless billions of Dao Ancestors! However, our sacred land does not have any lifeforms below the Dao Ancestor level. Our entry-level requirement is precisely the Dao Ancestor realm! Those who haven’t reached Dao Ancestor don’t even have the chance to survive in the Dark Forbidden Domain!” Dao Ancestor Mingyu explained.

“So powerful!” Ye Tian was shocked.

Currently, the Dao Mountain Domain didn’t even have a single Domain Ancestor, and while Divine Heaven Domain had seemed incredibly powerful to him previously, its Top-tier Domain Ancestors represented the peak of its strength.

There wasn’t even a single Pinnacle Domain Ancestor. Yet, unexpectedly, the Zhenyuan Sacred Land from the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain had numerous Pinnacle Domain Ancestors.

Didn’t that mean that any Pinnacle Domain Ancestor dispatched casually by Zhenyuan Sacred Land could sweep through the Divine Heaven Domain effortlessly?

“No wonder cultivators from the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain look down upon those from the various domains. The gap is far too large. To the forces from the Dark Forbidden Domain, these domains are merely small places, no different from ants. If I hadn’t made it onto the All-Things Ranking, Dao Ancestor Mingyu probably wouldn’t have even given me a second glance!” Ye Tian thought to himself.

“Is Zhenyuan Sacred Land the strongest force in the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain?” Ye Tian asked.

Dao Ancestor Mingyu appeared slightly embarrassed, but soon replied, “Naturally not. The depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain refer to an area rich in resources, considered the most prosperous region in the entire Dark Forbidden Domain. Thus, it is known to people from the various domains as the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain.

In reality, most of us call this region the Dark Sacred Region! Within the Dark Sacred Region, there are ten Supreme Sacred Gates, seventy-two Sacred Lands, thousands of sects, and hundreds of thousands of giant cities.

Any one of these giant cities could easily sweep through countless domains. Generally speaking, to establish even one giant city force in the Dark Sacred Region, one must possess the strength of at least a Pinnacle Domain Ancestor; otherwise, they’re not even qualified to build a city!”

“The Dark Sacred Region is actually this powerful!!!” Ye Tian was utterly shocked.

The ten Supreme Sacred Gates, seventy-two Sacred Lands, thousands of sects, and hundreds of thousands of giant cities—what a terrifying force this was! Even the weakest giant city among them could sweep through the Divine Heaven Domain effortlessly.

Dao Ancestor Mingyu was equally amazed. “The forces within the Dark Sacred Region have billions of Half-Step Domain Ancestors. Though not all of them have entered the Battle Realm Pagoda, at least forty to fifty percent have. Among such countless All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestors, only a hundred can enter the All-Things Ranking. You can imagine how fierce the competition is. Every genius who manages to enter the All-Things Ranking is monstrously talented, practically all coming from major Sacred Lands or the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates. But you, a mere Half-Step Domain Ancestor from a domain, actually broke into the All-Things Ranking. Now you understand why this is considered incredible, right?”

“I see now!”

Ye Tian hadn’t expected to cause such a sensation all at once. Still, he wasn’t afraid.

He was currently within the Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm. Inside the Battle Realm Pagoda, he presumably couldn’t die. Could those people actually chase him all the way to the Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm?

“Dao Ancestor Mingyu, no one should die within the Battle Realm Pagoda, right?” Ye Tian asked.

“Hahaha, naturally no one can die!” Dao Ancestor Mingyu smiled softly. “Rest assured, the Battle Realm Pagoda is a sacred object of the Battle Gate, one of the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates. Moreover, it’s very special—it doesn’t kill people, only protects them. Otherwise, the major forces wouldn’t dare send their geniuses inside.”

“Dao Ancestor Mingyu, are you trying to recruit me for Zhenyuan Sacred Land?” Ye Tian asked directly.

“Indeed. Are you interested?” Dao Ancestor Mingyu asked.

“This…” Ye Tian hesitated.

If he were merely a genius listed on the All-Things Ranking, he might’ve considered joining Zhenyuan Sacred Land.

But the key issue was that Ye Tian believed his future accomplishments would far surpass these so-called All-Things Ranking geniuses. If there was a better force available, why would he limit himself to Zhenyuan Sacred Land? What he really wanted was to join one of the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates!

After thinking for a moment, Ye Tian said, “Dao Ancestor Mingyu, thank you for sharing so much information with me, but I’m more interested in joining the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates!”

“You want to join the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates!?!”

Dao Ancestor Mingyu wasn’t angry, just very surprised.

Although the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates seemed only slightly higher in rank than Sacred Lands, the actual gap in strength was massive! Any one of the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates could easily destroy a Sacred Land. Even if all the Sacred Lands joined forces, they still wouldn’t match a single Sacred Gate.

“The Ten Supreme Sacred Gates aren’t easy to join; their entry standards are very high. For instance, geniuses on the All-Things Ranking—ordinary ones are completely beneath their notice. Geniuses on the All-Things Ranking cultivate too quickly, rarely staying at the All-Things Realm for long. Consequently, the All-Things Ranking updates frequently, and each Sacred Land and Sacred Gate has numerous such geniuses. If you wish to join one of the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates, you must rank among the top three in a particular cycle of the All-Things Ranking, or possess some extraordinary special potential. But the difficulty is tremendous. You are currently ranked only around the nine hundreds on the All-Things Ranking!” Dao Ancestor Mingyu explained clearly.

Her implication was obvious: Ye Tian wouldn’t be able to join any of the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates.

Who wouldn’t want to enter the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates? Even Dao Ancestor Mingyu herself had wanted to, but she didn’t qualify, which was why she joined Zhenyuan Sacred Land.

However, no matter how she explained, Ye Tian was clearly determined not to join Zhenyuan Sacred Land for now. Instead, he would try to enter one of the Ten Supreme Sacred Gates.

“Dao Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws, if you can’t enter the Sacred Gates, please consider our Zhenyuan Sacred Land again!” Dao Ancestor Mingyu finally said.

“Alright!” Ye Tian nodded.

He had to admit, Dao Ancestor Mingyu truly had a great attitude. If it were someone else, they probably would’ve gotten angry long ago!
