Chapter 1131 Popular Figures, Eternal City

Time flies, and the world is in turmoil. Finally, amidst the eager anticipation of countless geniuses and heroes, the grand Eternal Assembly, held by the Maha Ancient Clan, has begun.

In this place where fortunes converge, speculation and discussion about who will ultimately ascend the Eternal Tower and obtain the supreme inheritance of the "Eternal Immortal Body" naturally became the hottest topic.

Soon, a "Popular List of Eternal Immortals" released by a mysterious and well-informed organization called "Tianji Pavilion" and widely recognized began to circulate among the people.

The list comprises ten of the most promising contenders, each with an impressive track record or an unfathomable background.

The Eternal Immortal Body Hot List.

First place: Maha Shang, a reclusive genius of the Maha Ancient Clan. It is said that he has reached an extremely high level in cultivating the Immortal Golden Body, and his aura is as deep as the ocean. He is suspected of touching the threshold of the Saint Rank. The Maha Ancient Clan is determined to obtain this inheritance, making him the biggest favorite.

Second place goes to Ye Fantian, the unparalleled successor of the ancient Ye family in the Great Thousand World. He possesses the "Brahma Sacred Body" and once, with the cultivation of a late-stage Spiritual Grade Heavenly Supreme, he defied the evil Xuanmo Emperor of the extraterrestrial race in the ruins, achieving a terrifying record. Now, he has the strength of a late-stage Immortal Grade and controls a portion of the ancient Brahma Divine Fire, making his offensive power unmatched among his peers.

The third is Taiqing Xuan, who comes from the Taiqing Heavenly Realm, a top power in the Great Thousand World. He is the direct descendant of the Taiqing Dao Ancestor, cultivates the Taiqing Heavenly Realm's unique skills, has unfathomable supernatural powers, immeasurable strength, and profound wisdom. He is regarded as one of the most troublesome opponents.

Fourth, Youmingzi, the current Youmingzi of the Youming Divine Palace, is mysterious and unpredictable. He is proficient in the ancient Youming inheritance and the spiritual power of death. Wherever he goes, life withers. He once secluded himself in the "Nine Nether Burial Ground" for a hundred years. After emerging from seclusion, his aura merged with the origin of death, making him awe-inspiring.

Fifth place: Lei Xiao, a rising rogue cultivator in recent years, is known for his domineering purple-gold lightning and powerful avatar of the Immortal Golden Body. Upon his birth, he challenged several famous Heavenly Sovereigns. Later, he was recruited by Mo Yu, the King of Zhen Dong, as his chief guest elder. His lightning contains the true meaning of judgment and immortality, and his attack power is extremely terrifying. He is regarded as a powerful dark horse in the struggle for the "Eternal Immortal Body".

Sixth place: Huang Wu. Although she is human, she obtained the ancient bloodline of the True Phoenix Divine Beast clan by chance and fully awakened it. She possesses the Nirvana Flame and has reached the pinnacle of perfection. She has the Nirvana Divine Power that makes her almost immortal and indestructible. Her speed and vitality are the best on the list.

……

Ninth, Tian Kunzi, a descendant of the Kunpeng divine beast from the North Sea of ​​the Great Thousand World. He cultivates both the Devouring Law and the Space Law, and his physical body is as strong as a true dragon or phoenix. He has his own space within his body, and his spiritual power is vast and almost limitless. He also has extremely strong endurance and the ability to fight a protracted battle.

Tenth place: Blood Blade. Originating from the mysterious Blood Blade Tavern, a dark assassin organization in the Great Thousand Worlds, he proves his Dao through killing. He is proficient in various assassination techniques and destructive forbidden moves, and will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. He is extremely threatening in actual combat and is a treacherous opponent that many prodigies are unwilling to face.

The list caused an uproar upon its release.

The top ten are all monsters with both background and strength, especially the top few, who are considered to be unparalleled prodigies with the potential to reach the Saint rank.

Lei Xiao's fifth-place ranking, though below ancient inheritors like Mohe Shang and Ye Fantian, is remarkable for someone with a "rogue cultivator" background to surpass many ancient clans and Heavenly Realm successors, attracting more attention and scrutiny.

Thunder Continent, inside the Thunder Prison Purple Thunder Pavilion.

Lei Xiao stood with his hands behind his back in the courtyard, a thoughtful look flashing in his usually calm eyes.

He held a jade slip in his hand, inside which was the popular list.

"Fifth? Heh, that's fair enough." Lei Xiao muttered to himself, his tone revealing neither joy nor anger.

Given his current combat prowess, it's not surprising that he ranks behind those monsters at the top. This list, to some extent, reflects the intelligence and deterrent power of all parties.

"Elder Lei Xiao, just take a look at this list. The real competition is inside the tower." At this moment, a gentle but slightly aged voice came from behind.

An elderly man with a thin face and dressed in a simple gray robe walked slowly towards them.

The old man's aura was restrained, as if he had blended into his surroundings. However, upon closer inspection, one could discover that he possessed a vast and unfathomable spiritual power, as weighty as the earth and as boundless as the starry sky.

This person was none other than the powerful expert sent by Mo Yu himself to assist Lei Xiao or to secretly protect him. He was also one of the three newly recruited Saint-level experts by Lei Yu, the Treasure Saint Venerable.

“Senior Baosheng.” Lei Xiao nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

He did not reject the people arranged by the Venerable One. Although Venerable Baosheng was carefree and loved treasures and money, he was quite upright and worked diligently after joining Thunder Prison.

With a Saint-Rank Heavenly Sovereign by his side and Lei Yu as his powerful backer, Lei Xiao felt even more confident about this trip.

"The top four on the list are indeed extraordinary. Maha Shang... is probably a trump card that the Maha Ancient Clan has kept hidden for this purpose."

"The Maha ancient people's pursuit of an eternal and immortal body has always been the case," said Venerable Baosheng, stroking his beard.

"Although their clan's 'Maha Immortal Body' is strong, it is still as vast as an insurmountable gap compared to the 'Eternal Immortal Body,' one of the five original Dharma bodies."

This Maha Shang is undoubtedly a formidable opponent, and then there's Ye Fantian, Tai Qingxuan, Youmingzi… none of them are simple. There are countless variables within the Eternal Tower; Elder Lei Xiao must be cautious.”

“I understand.” A flash of purple-gold lightning appeared in Lei Xiao’s eyes, and then he said in a resolute tone, “However, I will definitely take the Eternal Immortal Body.”

Upon hearing this, Venerable Baosheng looked at Lei Xiao with some surprise. For some reason, seeing the familiar determination and confidence in Lei Xiao's eyes, he couldn't help but think of someone.

That is now the Demon-Slaying King of Zhendong, the Lord of Thunder Prison, and the Thunder Emperor Moyu.

Thinking of Lei Di's unfathomable figure, Bao Sheng Venerable quickly shook his head. As a Saint-rank Heavenly Supreme, he had encountered many powerful figures while traveling through the Great Thousand Worlds, but he had never met anyone as unpredictable as Lei Di before.

This is also one of the reasons why he was willing to submit to Lei Yu, because he saw an indescribable potential in Mo Yu...

"I will clear away any potential interference from outsiders outside the tower for you. As for the path inside the tower, you will have to rely on yourself. King Mo asked me to tell you to act freely. No matter the outcome, the Zhen Dong Prince's Mansion will always be your strong support." Venerable Bao Sheng looked at Lei Xiao and said slowly.

Lei Xiao knew that this was the real person reassuring him and reminding him that he didn't need to hold back and could fully unleash the flamboyance and domineering nature that Lei Xiao's identity should have.

"Thank you, senior. Please also convey to King Mo that Lei Xiao will not fail your expectations." Lei Xiao cupped his hands in thanks.

"No need to thank me, I'm just doing my job for the Prince's Palace." Venerable Baosheng waved his hand dismissively, then said, "The Eternal Gathering is about to begin, let's set off immediately."

"Hmm." Lei Xiao nodded upon hearing this, and then the two of them headed together to the largest teleportation array on the Thunder Continent, rushing towards the Maha Continent.

……

While Lei Xiao and his companion were traveling at full speed, the Eternal Society continued to ferment in the Great Thousand World, with various super forces gathering at the Maha Ancient Clan.

There were rumors some time ago that the "immortal body" that had been silent for thousands of years was showing signs of movement, as if it was looking for a master.

This rumor has attracted countless eyes. Could it be that the immortal body, which has never chosen a new master in thousands of years, is finally going to choose a master this time?

If the Eternally Immortal Body truly chooses a new master, then perhaps another supreme being will emerge in this vast world.

Thus, fueled by these rumors, the Maha Ancient Clan became the focus of the entire world during this period.

Amidst this global frenzy, Lei Xiao and Venerable Bao Sheng arrived at the Maha Continent, home to the Maha Ancient Clan, seven days later.

The Maha Continent, also among the super continents of the Great Thousand Worlds, is vast and boundless, rich in resources, and enjoys an extremely resounding reputation throughout the entire Great Thousand Worlds.

Of course, the main reason for this is the existence of the Mahagu tribe.

As one of the five ancient tribes in the world, the Maha tribe has existed for a long time.

Even in those ancient times, the Maha Ancient Clan was an extremely powerful force. Now, with its accumulated strength, it can be considered one of the top clans in the entire Great Thousand World.

Think back to a few years ago, when the Endless Fire Domain and Thunder Prison were developing rapidly in the Great Thousand Worlds. Maha Tian of the Maha Ancient Clan inherited the position of clan leader and attempted to marry Qing Yanjing of the Futu Ancient Clan in order to establish his authority and intimidate those inside and outside the clan.

But no one expected that Qing Yanjing already had someone she loved and had given birth to a son for the Lord of Thunder Prison, the Thunder Emperor.

Furthermore, none of the Maha Ancient Clan had anticipated that the Thunder Emperor, who came from a lower plane, would be such an unexpectedly powerful figure. In the end, he single-handedly shattered the marriage alliance between the Maha Ancient Clan and the Futu Ancient Clan. Not only did the marriage fail, but the Maha Ancient Clan also suffered a humiliating defeat, thus solidifying the Thunder Emperor's status and fame.

Although Maha Tian lost in his battle with Lei Di, Lei Di's fame is now soaring, and he is poised to become one of the top beings in the Great Thousand Worlds. Maha Tian's past defeat has become a testament to his own strength.

Although the proud and arrogant Maha Deva disdained such proof, others in the vast world would hold the same view.

After all, the fact that he could fight the Thunder Emperor to such an extent is enough to show that Maha Tian's strength should not be underestimated.

Therefore, the reputation of the Mahagu people has grown stronger over the years.

Among the five ancient clans, it has gradually replaced the increasingly declining Futu Ancient Clan and is now in the lead. Whether in terms of its foundation or the number of its top experts, it surpasses the other four clans.

……

Maha Continent, Eternal City.

This city is not the main city on the continent of Maha, but its fame is even greater than that of the ancient Maha tribe.

Legend has it that this city was built by the Immortal Emperor, and it is the location where the Eternal Gathering is held every time.

Outside the ancient city, atop a mountain, Lei Xiao and Venerable Bao Sheng gazed at the city that exuded an ancient aura.

Beyond this city, a continuous stream of light and shadow is pouring in, creating a vibrant and bustling atmosphere that rivals even the Eastern Region Assembly at the Zhen Dong Prince's Mansion.

After all, the Eastern Region is just a corner of the Great Thousand World, while here, regardless of whether they are familiar with the area or not, almost half of the super forces in the entire Great Thousand World will gather here.

After all, it concerns the ownership of the "immortal body".

"This is truly a gathering of heroes."

Lei Xiao murmured to himself. Those who could come to this Eternal City were almost all top experts from various super forces. Ordinary people probably wouldn't have the guts to come here at this time to feel that overwhelming oppressive aura.

"Hehe, so what about the heroes? There are countless forces in this vast world. Although there aren't many that can be called heroes, there are still a few dozen. However, my Zhen Dong Wang Mansion is undoubtedly the most powerful among the powerful." Venerable Bao Sheng stroked his beard and smiled confidently.

Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao smiled and nodded. After years of consolidation by his true self, the Zhen Dong Wang Mansion had encompassed most of the forces in the Eastern Region. In terms of overall strength, it was probably second only to the Da Qian Palace.

The Great Thousand Palace was nothing more than a disorganized alliance, so in truth, the Zhen Dong Prince's Mansion was the most deeply hidden mastermind in the Great Thousand World.

With a sigh in his heart, Lei Xiao also moved, transforming into two streaks of light with Venerable Bao Sheng and rushing towards the city.

As they approached the city, they landed at the city gate.

As he approached, he could sense that this ancient city seemed to faintly emanate an extremely ancient and desolate aura.

Although the fluctuation was extremely subtle, it still caused Lei Xiao's spiritual energy to tremble slightly, and he involuntarily lowered his body, not daring to overstep the mark.

"This kind of fluctuation."

Lei Xiao frowned slightly. This was definitely not the power of a Saint-grade item; it seemed to be a more mysterious fluctuation.

"Could it be something left behind by the Immortal Emperor back then?" Lei Xiao's heart stirred slightly, and he made a guess.

After all, only the residual energy of that former number one powerhouse in the Great Thousand Worlds could still inspire such awe after thousands of years.

The thought flashed through Lei Xiao's mind, but he suppressed it. With a hint of respect for that immortal emperor, Lei Xiao solemnly walked slowly through the city gate.

Upon entering the city, the view suddenly opens up.

Ancient stone-paved streets stretched out before us, crowded with people, each emanating a powerful spiritual energy.

Lei Xiao's entry attracted some attention, and those eyes then flashed with a strange light, indicating that they recognized him.

In contrast, the seemingly ordinary-looking Venerable Baosheng did not attract much attention.

Lei Xiao remained expressionless in the face of these intrigued stares, continuing on his way directly into the city.

After walking through several streets, he suddenly saw a large, dark crowd gathering in front of him, with noise coming from them. His gaze followed the crowd.

There, a huge crystal wall stood, and on it, clear human figures shimmered.
