When those who thought about sneaking inside the Immortal Monastery despite the Ancient Immortal’s warning saw the brutal deaths of the first few deaths, they instantly changed their minds.
However, the Ancient Immortal had different plans.
"Foolish hoarders who ignored my warning, you all deserve death," the Ancient Immortal spoke in a grim voice.
The next moment, the golden gates emitted another powerful pulse of energy, sending a ripple cascading across the area.
When the ripple reached those who had attempted to enter the Immortal Monastery without a token but hadn’t yet reached the gates, their bodies were instantly vaporized, erased from existence as if they had never been there.
The shocking display left everyone watching frozen in fear and disbelief. The ruthlessness of the Ancient Immortal gave a glimpse of what might be to come in the trials.
Some of the victims were Immortals who came from the Upper Heavens, with a few even being Immoral cultivators. However, they were still powerless before the Ancient Immortal’s powers.
"I will not repeat myself. Those who disrespect my authority will be erased. One minute left." The Ancient Immortal spoke after a moment of silence.
After being reminded of the time limit, those numbered 1 to 1,000 snapped out of their daze and hastily rushed into the portal.
Once the remaining minute was over, the Ancient Immortal’s voice resounded again, "Numbers 1,001 to 2,000 may enter the Immortal Gates now. You have 3 minutes." freewebnovel.cσ๓
This time, the exact number of people allowed—1,000—approached the Immortal Gates. The gruesome fate of the previous group had left an indelible impression on everyone present, and not a single person dared to attempt sneaking into the Immortal Monastery without a legitimate token.
Three minutes passed without any incident.
"Numbers 2,001 to 3,000 may enter the Immortal Gates now. You have 3 minutes."
"I’ll send you directly to the front," Yuan said to Ji Ran, who had number 2,025.
"Okay. I’ll see you inside the Immortal Monastery, Young Lord."
Yuan grabbed the Baneful Abyss and tossed it directly toward the Immortal Gates with the token. Your next read is at freewebnovel.com
"What’s that?"
The people there first thought someone was trying to launch an attack, but the following scene shocked many people there.
When the Baneful Abyss reached the Immortal Gates, Ji Ran emerged from the Soul Weapon, and his God Ascension realm aura surged forth like a tidal wave.
"A spirit?"
"No, that’s a physical soul! He must be a God Ascension realm cultivator!"
After coming out of the Baneful Abyss, Ji Ran didn’t immediately enter the Immortal Gates. Instead, he bowed before it, almost as if paying respects to it.
"I can sense a familiar energy coming from you," the Ancient Immortal’s voice suddenly echoed.
The unexpected statement startled everyone still present, including Ji Ran and Yuan. The implication behind such words—that the Ancient Immortal was still conscious, perhaps even alive—sent a ripple of shock through the crowd.
"I remember now… This energy is from the Immortal’s Seal, something only disciples of the Immortal Monastery may receive… And judging by its powerful energy, you must’ve held a high position within the sect… State your identity, disciple."
