Starting With 100 Million Lives

Chapter 1035: Chapter 1035: Have You Finished Your Last Words?

As his words fell, a line of golden characters appeared in the void.

The golden characters then split into two parts.

One part floated and imprinted onto the immortal stone plate he held for recording.

The other part turned into a golden powder illusion and sprinkled over Qiu Yuxuan’s head.

Immortal Official Bai Kui said solemnly, "Your identity is now recorded in the registry of the Celestial Palace."

"From now on, you have the qualification to walk outside!"

Like a sudden enlightenment, she suddenly sensed the world outside the dense fog, with no more obstacles.

Now, if she wished to leave, she could do so at any time.

Everyone else was already looking envious, not only because she could leave but also because she could enter King Jia’s Dojo.

This was a tremendous thing indeed.

Most immortals who could leave typically just got registered and then were placed in different immortal cities and regions outside.

Either they made a living on their own as loose immortals.

Or they accepted miscellaneous tasks arranged by the Celestial Palace.

Currently, it is not allowed to establish sects outside, so joining a sect like in the past no longer exists.

Those with higher talent and particularly devoted to the Heavenly Dao are often placed into the dojos established by the Celestial Palace.

In these dojos, not only do experts instruct and teach cultivation techniques, but occasionally a great power from the Celestial Palace descends to give a lecture.

This is quite similar to sects of the past.

However, now all the dojos belong to the Celestial Palace, serving as their direct lineage.

Among countless dojos, at the top are ten Emperor-level dojos.

These ten dojos are directly under the ten Celestial Emperors.

The Emperor-level dojos cannot be entered directly; they require subsequent layers of tests and a recommendation from high-level Celestial Palace officials, which Immortal Official Bai Kui does not have the authority to grant her.

Beneath the Emperor-level are ninety King-level dojos.

Under the King-level are several tiers, with thousands of even lower level dojos.

For ordinary immortals, just entering the lowest tier of dojos is a cause for great celebration and envy from many.

Now, Qiu Yuxuan is placed into King Jia’s Dojo, which is a King-level dojo!

Formerly, Ice Origin Valley was merely the highest "sect" in one of the Three Thousand Realms.

Now, there are only ninety King-level dojos in the entire Primordial Immortal Realm.

Converted to the sects of the past, she is now entering a sect even higher in status than Ice Origin Valley.

One can imagine the great significance behind this!

Faced with such tremendous fortune, Qiu Yuxuan showed little excitement.

Perhaps in her eyes, with her talent, entering a King-level dojo was only natural and nothing to be excessively jubilant about.

On the contrary, Granny Qiu kept expressing her gratitude.

"Thank you for your support, Immortal Official!"

"Thank you, Immortal Official!"

Immortal Official Bai Kui nodded, then pointed to three other young immortals who had reached the Upper-class Celestial Heart level.

He also gave them identities for the outside world.

However, his arrangements for these three were much more casual.

None of the three could enter a dojo; all were simply assigned to different immortal cities to make their own living there.

Without waiting for those three to express gratitude, he waved the jade ruler in his hand, sweeping them out of this abandoned land.

Directly transmitting them to their corresponding immortal cities.

Not even giving them a chance to say goodbye to those around them...

But towards Qiu Yuxuan, his attitude was completely different.

"Yu Xuan, we can depart now."

He directly dropped the surname, making it seem very intimate.

Granny Qiu suddenly emerged, whispering through sound transmission, "I’m very grateful for the Immortal Official’s support for her, and have prepared an exotic treasure in the back hall as a token of gratitude. Would the Immortal Official do us the honor?"

Initially, Immortal Official Bai Kui was dismissive of this old lady.

How could you deserve to be the grandmother of such a peerless genius as Qiu Yuxuan?

But upon hearing there was an exotic treasure to honor him, his eyes couldn’t help but brighten.

This old woman was rather astute!

"Lead the way!" he said impassively.

Granny Qiu, Bai Kui, and Qiu Yuxuan quickly arrived at the back hall.

"Where is the exotic treasure you mentioned?"

Qiu Yuxuan was also puzzled by this.

She didn’t understand what her grandmother was up to.

Our abandoned land is already the poorest; where would any exotic treasure come from?

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Cheng suddenly emerged from behind a curtain.

Upon seeing Immortal Official Bai Kui, a smile played at his lips.

"Oh, the main character is finally here!"

Bai Kui’s face darkened: "The exotic treasure you spoke of, am I being toyed with?"

Granny Qiu grimaced, pointing at Jiang Cheng: "Reporting to the Immortal Official, the exotic treasure I mentioned is him. His talent far exceeds that of this girl Yu Xuan. Perhaps you could take him along..."

This was something Brother Cheng had taught her to say in advance.

Even as she spoke, she knew that the other party was unlikely to agree.

Qiu Yuxuan beside her was even more incredulous.

Is this your so-called method of going outside?

This is rather laughable, isn’t it?

Sure enough, even before Granny Qiu finished speaking, Immortal Official Bai Kui interrupted her coldly.

"Are you mocking me?"

"It seems this abandoned land needs to be punished. For a billion years, no further examinations will be held, and no one will be able to leave!"

He couldn’t be bothered to check if Jiang Cheng’s talent and aptitude were as good as claimed, nor did he care to inquire about his Celestial Heart level.

He simply pointed at Jiang Cheng’s nose and passed a severe judgment.

"As for you, no matter how high your future examination results may be, you shall never leave this place!"

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Brother Cheng clapped his hands with a cheerful smile.

"Not bad, not bad. Judging by your demeanor, it seems you have quite a reputation outside."

His words were ambiguous, causing Immortal Official Bai Kui’s eyes to narrow slightly.

"Are you challenging me? Do you seek death?"

Brother Cheng quickly waved his hand: "No, no, you misunderstood. You’re not worth my challenge."

Bai Kui finally noticed that Jiang Cheng was at the Emperor Realm Eighth Layer.

This level of power makes one an expert outside, let alone here in this abandoned land.

However, this was not enough to earn his respect.

"Do you think that with your realm, you are qualified to negotiate with me?"

"In front of the Celestial Palace, even if you are a Celestial Venerable, you must comply; even as a Supreme, you must act with humility!"

Brother Cheng smiled and drew his Tier Six True Artifact Longsword.

"Have you finished your last words?"

Bai Kui’s first reaction was not fear but disbelief.

"What did you say? You dare to make a move against me..."

In all his years as an Immortal Official in the Celestial Palace, even encountering a Celestial Venerable, they’d show him ample respect.

And even a Supreme wouldn’t dare touch him.

Because everyone knew the grave consequences of opposing someone from the Celestial Palace.

Yet this time, before he could finish speaking, Brother Cheng’s sword was already swinging down.

"Courting death!" Bai Kui roared in rage as he countered.

He hadn’t even summoned his Daoist Artifact before being overwhelmed by a colossal attack of Profound Patterns.

Brother Cheng gave him no chance to resist; with the release of the Purple Soul, he thoroughly crushed his Sea of Souls, cutting off his ability to act.

Then, with a flick of the longsword, he completely eradicated his last strand of vitality.
