Chapter 997: Four Emperors and a Thousand Grand Masters
They had thought that Holy Spirit Goldfeather was the ultimate bad guy, but unexpectedly, the thing hidden under the abyss was the most terrifying enemy.
In order to let everyone clearly realize how powerful and dangerous this thing was, Yu Huang also decided to tell everyone the scene she saw through the Eternal Eye. “Everyone, I have an even more despairing piece of news.”
Donor slowly regained his senses and nodded at Yu Huang. “Go ahead.”
Everyone looked at Yu Huang.
Through the slightly bright firefly lights, they could clearly see the despair on Yu Huang’s face.
Before Yu Huang could speak, their hearts sank.
“Two nights ago, I accidentally activated the Eternal Eye and saw this huge abyss eye.” As Yu Huang stared at the huge abyss eye, she was trembling in fear. She said in a hoarse voice, “It’s growing quickly. When it grows up, it will devour the entire Holy Spirit Continent in an instant.” After a pause, Yu Huang took a deep breath and said in a nervous voice, “And the entire devouring process only lasts five seconds.”
“Five seconds later, the Holy Spirit Continent will completely disappear from the universe like the Jade Illusion Continent did. It will become a chaotic void, as if it never appeared in this world.”
With that said, Yu Huang closed her eyes.
After Xiao Shu, Beatrice, and the others heard Yu Huang’s story, they couldn’t help but feel a chill down their spines and break out in cold sweat.
“So…” Feng Yuncheng adjusted his glasses with trembling fingers and said in a quivering voice,” Its ultimate goal is to devour the Holy Spirit Continent and… kill all of us? ”
“…”
No one replied to Feng Yuncheng’s question.
But now, everyone had the same thought.
Yin Rong choked on her tears as she said, “The Grand State Master and the others know about the existence of the Abyssal Eye, so they plan to activate the Sky Penetrating Array and send us to the Great World?” Yin Rong finally understood what Yu Huang meant by ‘we have to go to the Great World’.
“Sky Penetrating Array?!” Of course they knew about the Sky Penetrating Array. Their first array formation class in the Holy Spirit Academy was about the Sky Penetrating Array.
After the Kunlun Mystic Realm ended, Prime Emperor Dino had also told them that if the Time Gate in the Central Pagoda couldn’t be opened, he would activate the Sky Penetrating Array to send them to the Great World.
Just like Yin Rong, they all thought that after defeating Holy Spirit Goldfeather, the Sky Penetrating Array plan would be put on hold. They didn’t expect that they still had to carry out this plan.
As if recalling something, Donor shook his head dejectedly and said with red eyes, “No wonder Father and Mother kept nagging me when I left the Light Sea…”
Princess Daiya and the Elven King were both Grand Master powerhouses.
If they really activated the Sky Penetrating Array, the two of them would be one of the thousand Grand Masters.
Beatrice also belatedly realized that before she left to attend Yin Rong and Xiao Shu’s wedding, her two brothers had also chatted with her for a long time. It turned out that they already knew all of this. Those nagging words were their last words.
“It’s just as the old dean said.” Yu Huang held back her tears and said in a low voice, “If one of us can become a Divine Master, then there will still be hope for the Holy Spirit Continent. If we all fail, then we will be proof of the Holy Spirit Continent’s former existence.”
After saying that, Yu Huang finally couldn’t help but shed tears. “Everyone, let’s head to the Great World to seek opportunities and work hard to become a Divine Master. Only then can we fight against the ‘thing’ in the Abyssal Eye.”
“Therefore, we have to go to the Great World!”
The eight of them welled up with tears when they heard this.
When they left the abyss rift, it was already evening.
The orange sunset dyed the sky above the primitive forest red.
Strangely, the morning sun was also cold, but when it shone on people, it made them feel warm. The evening sun clearly had the residual warmth of the scorching sun, but when it landed on people, it always gave them a chill.
Under the setting sun, Yu Huang and the others started running at the same time.
Like moose in the forest, they quickly passed through the entire primitive forest. Before sunset, they arrived at the edge of the primitive forest and the fallen boundary wall. When they looked up, they could see the Holy Spirit Academy on the Black Dome Mountain in the distance.
There were also the thousand Grand Masters standing on the grassland below the Holy Spirit Academy.
The merman race was only left with Dino. He would represent the merman race on this occasion.
In order to balance the forces of the various races, this time, the alliance would choose more than 300 Grand Masters from among the humans, elves, and beastmen.
There were only a thousand Grand Masters on the entire Holy Spirit Continent.
Apart from the thousand Grand Masters present, there were only 120 Grand Masters left on the entire continent. They had to bear the heavy responsibility of maintaining the order of the Holy Spirit Continent and protecting the various countries.
The thousand Grand Masters standing under the Black Dome were all wearing the same Grand Master Beast Tamer robe with a light purple Grand Master badge on their shoulders. At this moment, they were silently looking up at the sky.
Cultivators all fantasized about the world beyond theirs.
Only a small number of them had gone to the Great World before. Most of them were old cultivators who yearned for the Great World.
At the thought that they could only reach this level in their lives, they were somewhat unwilling to accept it.
However, this unwillingness wasn’t worth mentioning when compared to the future of the Holy Spirit Continent.
They were Beast Tamers who were privileged in this world. They had received the support and respect of the commoners, so they had to make sacrifices at the appropriate time.
From the day Yin Mingjue sacrificed himself to block the spatial rift and protect the entire Holy Spirit Continent, the phrase ‘Prime Master’ had evolved into a form of spirit.
It represented sacrificing oneself to protect the world.
This spirit was already deeply engraved in everyone’s hearts.
Even the selfish and despicable Snake Clan’s Grand Master Bai Xi, the Lion King Clan’s Grand Master Lie Huo, and the Tiger Clan’s Grand Master Chou Gang overcame their selfishness and decided to sacrifice their energy to activate the Sky Penetrating Array.
They didn’t want Sheng Xiao and the others to become Divine Masters.
They were hoping that the geniuses of the Beast Clan would become Divine Masters.
On the list of 12 people drawn up by the Grand State Master and the others, other than Yu Huang and the others, there were still four spots. The remaining four were the princess of a fallen country, Fang Peipei, the female Light Elf Tanoyi, and two Beast Clan Supreme Masters.
Among the four of them, only Fang Peipei relied on her own abilities to successfully complete the graduation assessment of the Holy Spirit Academy and obtain a spot to go to the Great World.
The remaining three were candidates chosen by Sheng Lingfeng and the others to appease the anger of the elves and beastmen.
After all, the human race occupied 6 of the 12 spots.
