Chapter 1031 - 1031: Getting Jealous
Chapter 1031 - 1031: Getting Jealous
Granny Qiu's mood was very low and complicated.After the restructuring of the Primordial Immortal Realm, the Profound Realm also underwent earth-shaking changes.
The Three Thousand Origins returned, and the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial Immortal Realm became extremely powerful, forcibly reclaiming the fragment of Heavenly Dao that had been severed from the Profound Realm.
After a series of upheavals, the Xuan Race people emerged from the Profound Realm and gradually integrated into the Primordial Immortal Realm.
With their Profound Essence and Profound Patterns, they quickly adapted to the new cultivation system, breaking through the original realm limits one after another.
Although that period was chaotic everywhere, everyone weathered the storm together, developing rapidly.
Bai Wuqi was the first to break through to the Emperor Realm Ninth Layer.
This gradually gave the White Profound Race the qualification to stand on the land of the Primordial Immortal Realm.
However, good times didn't last long, and the era of the Ten Celestial Emperors arrived.
As a group that worshiped the God of the Xuan Race, the White Profound Race was seen as a latent threat to the Heavenly Dao, becoming a target for the Celestial Palace's crackdown.
The upper echelons of the White Profound Race were either injured, missing, or exiled.
The remaining clansmen were thrown into countless Abandoned Lands, and the Abandoned Land where Granny Qiu was located initially had three clansmen.
The other two later passed the assessment and left this place.
To go outside is not difficult, as long as one reaches the Upper-class Celestial Heart.
But Granny Qiu was too devoted to the God of the Xuan Race, and her tests always yielded only the lower tier, so she remained trapped here.
Her greatest wish over the years has been to revive the White Profound Race.
The appearance of Qiu Yuxuan made her feel like she had obtained a supreme treasure.
This was a genius far surpassing the ancestors of the Xuan Race, with comprehension even exceeding the legendary Bai Wuqi.
She nurtured and cared for her meticulously, placing great hope on her.
Before this test, she was actually very conflicted.
On one hand, she hoped this child's Celestial Heart would reach the upper tier, allowing her to leave this desolate ghost place, and from then on, the sky would be the limit.
On the other hand, she hoped her Celestial Heart tier would be the same as hers, only lower tier, symbolizing her extreme loyalty to the White Profound Divine Hall.
And now the answer was revealed...
Her feeling was as if the efforts she had cultivated for many years ultimately ended up belonging to someone else.
Empty.
And at this moment, Brother Cheng could no longer hold back.
He certainly wouldn't stay in such a ghost place for another day.
The current assessment was completely a golden opportunity delivered on a platter, and not seizing it would be struck by lightning.
So he directly flew up to the high platform.
As soon as he went up, scolding voices immediately erupted around him.
"Who are you?"
"Unauthorized intrusion onto the testing altar is prohibited!"
"Get down, hurry and get down!"
This assessment occurs once every ten thousand years, and each time the selected list is predetermined.
It's not possible for just anyone wanting to test to do so.
However, Brother Cheng obviously didn't play by the rules and entirely ignored what these people were saying, directly charging into that Testing Immortal Array.
Not only the 'experts' above the platform but also the immortals watching below roared with laughter and jeers.
"Who is this person?"
"Looks very unfamiliar, I've never seen him before."
"Could it be someone who made a mistake and was just exiled from outside?"
"If you're exiled for making a mistake, what's the point of testing?"
"Waste of time!"
However, Granny Qiu, who was presiding over this event, turned pale.
She became extremely incredulous.
Her calm eyes suddenly shot out an intertwining brilliance of shock, joy, disbelief, and fervor.
Because she recognized Jiang Cheng.
As one of the White Profound clansmen back then, Granny Qiu had seen Sage Jiang.
At that time, she was just a young Earth Profound Realm.
She had no qualification to approach that person, nor the opportunity to hear his teachings.
She could only gaze at that person from afar with eyes of admiration and reverence.
She clearly knew that person's significance to the White Profound Race — standing shoulder to shoulder with gods!
So she stood up and hurriedly stepped down from the stage.
"Granny!"
Qiu Yuxuan quickly greeted her, thinking Granny Qiu was coming down to praise and encourage her.
But she found that Granny Qiu's attention was not on her at all.
Instead, it was on the person who had just rushed into the Immortal Array, without the slightest deviation.
This made her a little dissatisfied.
She held Granny Qiu's hand, actually beginning to pout.
"Granny, he's just a foolish person who doesn't understand the rules. There's no need for you to personally intervene, right? By the way, did you see my results just now? How about..."
"You shut up!"
Hearing Qiu Yuxuan actually call Sage Jiang a fool, Granny Qiu instinctively slapped her.
"How outrageous!"
Slap!
Qiu Yuxuan was stunned by the slap.
For as long as she could remember, this was the first time Granny Qiu had scolded her and even the first time she had hit her.
Having just achieved excellent results, she was extremely aggrieved, tears almost bursting forth.
But Granny Qiu directly shook her off, stumbling to the outside of the Testing Immortal Array, then respectfully bowed down.
How devout, how excited.
This scene left everyone dumbstruck.
Granny Qiu, as the highest martial force in this Abandoned Land, even if her Celestial Heart was insufficient, her status was still unparalleled.
After all, the Cultivation Realm ultimately spoke through power.
And she had presided over so many assessments, never reacting passionately to high scores.
Each time maintaining a serene demeanor, as calm as still water.
Only this time... was exceptionally abnormal.
Does this person have something special?
And soon, the crowd surged again.
Because in the first talent testing round, Jiang Cheng also reached the upper limit of what the Immortal Array could detect.
There was no choice; in every aspect — his physique, bloodline, rules, and comprehension — he was all full of monstrous levels.
It's just that the Testing Immortal Array had a limit, or else his test results would be even more shocking.
"This person's talent is actually no less than Qiu Yuxuan's?"
"Isn't this too amazing?"
"Unbelievable!"
"In just one day, two world-class geniuses that are hard to find in a billion years suddenly appeared in our Abandoned Land?"
Even some of the 'experts' on the high platform were shocked.
"I can't even discern this person's cultivation, is he perhaps Emperor Realm Sixth Layer?"
"Seems so."
"No wonder Granny Qiu reacted so strongly."
Meanwhile, the trembling Qiu Yuxuan still was holding one side of her beautiful face, staring blankly at Granny Qiu as if immobilized in clay.
This girl was slapped into a state of temporary bewilderment.
Until the overwhelming discussion of the crowd finally brought her back to her senses.
"Just because his talent is outstanding?"
"Aren't I outstanding too?"
She felt even more wronged.
Because a new genius emerged, you don't care about me anymore?
I'm your hand-raised 'granddaughter,' how can you favor one over the other?
She felt Granny Qiu's affections for her were stolen by Jiang Cheng, actually getting jealous.
And at this moment, Brother Cheng's test moved to the final phase — Celestial Heart.
