Chapter 779 The Gate of Ten Thousand Laws, Tensions Rise!
Beyond the Enlightenment Forest lies not directly that ancient forest with its thousands of auspicious rays and soaring Daoist charm.
A majestic and imposing gate, seemingly connecting heaven and earth, like an ancient guardian.
It stands on the outermost edge of the dense forest.
This portal, entirely forged from some unknown chaotic-colored divine stone, stood tens of thousands of feet tall, piercing the clouds.
The door frame is carved with countless intricate and ancient patterns, depicting ancient people's sacrifices, battles between gods and demons, roars of ferocious beasts, and the evolution of stars...
Every engraving exudes the breath of time and is filled with boundless divine power.
On the surface of the portal, countless mysterious runes flickered like stars, and chains of divine order formed from pure laws were wrapped around it.
It moved slowly like a living creature, emanating a chilling force of confinement and repulsion.
This is the only passage into the Enlightenment Forest—the Gate of Ten Thousand Laws!
Only by passing the test of the Heavenly Gate can one gain its approval.
Only then can one truly step into that supreme secret land that contains the opportunities and destiny of ancient sages.
At this moment, in front of the Heavenly Gate of Ten Thousand Laws, on that incomparably vast ancient square, there was already a bustling crowd and divine light soaring into the sky.
Powerful auras intertwined and collided, stirring the spiritual energy of this world into a boiling ocean.
The figures were scattered, roughly divided into two distinct camps.
On one side were the native prodigies of the Northern Sea. They were numerous, their auras complex yet powerful, with a few groups standing out as particularly noteworthy.
A descendant of the true dragon royal family, surrounded by dragon aura, with crystalline dragon horns on his head and vertical pupils.
They stood proudly, like born emperors, looking down on all directions, with faint dragon roars echoing around them.
There was a royal princess of the Ice Phoenix Clan whose body was covered in ice-blue feathers, with magnificent wings spread behind her, exuding an aura of extreme cold.
Their beauty was unparalleled, yet they possessed an icy aura that kept strangers at bay; wherever they stood, patches of mysterious ice would freeze on the ground.
There are barbarians with robust physiques, bronze or dark gold skin, and vigorous blood and energy like a furnace, who are descendants of ancient gods.
Their muscles were bulging, exuding explosive power, and their eyes were arrogant, making no attempt to hide their hostility towards the other side.
There were also some young men and women with exceptionally profound auras and natural Daoist charm, as if they were one with this land of the North Sea.
They come from some reclusive imperial families in Beihai, with ancient traditions. Although they do not show off, no one dares to underestimate them.
Among these local prodigies, there were also a few particularly eye-catching figures.
They were either shrouded in shadow or exuded an ancient and weathered aura, appearing out of place with their surroundings.
These are ancient freaks who have already been revived, such as Crimson Blood Gun God and Dark Night King!
They too were drawn to the Enlightenment Forest, and now they stand by, watching with cold eyes, like lurking beasts, waiting for their chance.
On the other side were the young prodigies from the Eternal Immortal Realm.
They were relatively few in number, but each of them possessed an extraordinary air and radiant spirit.
There were holy sons of sacred lands draped in star-patterned robes, drawing upon the celestial power of the heavens to infuse their bodies; and ancient family heirs shrouded in hazy celestial radiance, possessing an ethereal and otherworldly aura.
There are sword prodigies who carry divine swords and whose sword energy soars to the heavens; there are also reincarnations of ancient Buddhas, radiating Buddhist light and possessing a dignified and solemn appearance...
They gathered together, facing a vastly superior number of Northern Sea prodigies and those terrifying ancient monsters.
However, he showed little fear; on the contrary, his eyes were sharp, and his fighting spirit was hidden.
Ye Tian's sudden emergence and his consecutive defeats of the ancient monsters greatly boosted their confidence and morale.
The two camps faced off across the distance, their invisible auras colliding and stirring up gusts of wind that made people's robes flutter.
The air was thick with the smell of gunpowder, as if a single spark could ignite the entire scene.
"Hmph! A bunch of outsiders dare to covet the legacy left by the sages of Beihai? They are truly ignorant of their own limitations!"
A descendant of the True Dragon Royal Family snorted coldly, his voice like a dragon's roar, carrying a powerful penetrating force that clearly reached the ears of every genius in the Immortal Realm.
"The Enlightenment Forest is a treasure of my North Sea. The stone tablet within contains the Great Dao of the North Sea, which is completely different from the Dao foundation of your Immortal Realm. Forcibly trying to comprehend it will only cause your Dao foundation to collapse, and the loss will not outweigh the gain!"
A celestial maiden from the Ice Phoenix royal family spoke, her voice icy and filled with undisguised rejection.
"Those who know what's good for them will back out now while they still can! Otherwise, once we enter the dense forest, swords and spears have no eyes, and the struggle for opportunities will be left to fate!"
A barbarian prodigy grinned maliciously, clenching his fist so that his knuckles cracked, the threat unmistakable.
Faced with the collective attack from the local geniuses of Beihai, the geniuses of the Immortal Realm naturally refused to back down.
"Heh, what a joke! Since the Enlightenment Forest is located within the War God Academy, the academy's open access to us is an affirmation! When did it become your place to draw boundaries?"
A holy son in a star-patterned robe sneered in rebuttal, his body radiating starlight, showing no sign of backing down.
"The way of the sages of Beihai is profound and all-encompassing; how can it be limited by mere regional bloodlines? You are like frogs in a well, how can you possibly comprehend the true essence of the Great Way?"
The scion of an ancient family spoke calmly, yet with a condescending critical tone.
"As for swords having no eyes? That suits me just fine! I've long wanted to experience the skills of my generation in Beihai and see if they're really as formidable as the rumors say!"
A swordsman carrying a divine sword unleashed a sharp sword intent from his eyes, soaring straight into the sky and colliding fiercely with the aura of the barbarian prodigy, erupting into invisible sparks.
The two sides engaged in a heated exchange, neither willing to back down, and a conflict seemed imminent.
Those ancient oddballs watched coldly, some with a mocking smile, others with deep, thoughtful eyes.
I wonder what they're plotting.
Just when the tension was at its peak and a chaotic battle was about to break out.
In the distance, several divine rainbows streaked across the sky at incredible speed, arriving in the blink of an eye.
The leader, dressed in white, with a tall and straight figure and his black hair fluttering, was none other than Ye Tian.
