“Even so, there’s a chance that someone will take the risk as they just want to try their luck,” after pausing for a while, Xander added, “Casper, you should be careful once the selection begins.”
“Yeah!” Caspian nodded with a smile, “If someone plans to do that, I won’t show any mercy.”
When everyone was talking, the eight stone pillars around them suddenly vibrated in unison, and there was a loud noise like the ringing of a bell.
Buzz… Buzz! Buzz… Buzz!
The continuous sound soared into the sky, and even the clouds shook.
Everyone in the square stopped talking, looking around their surroundings.
The Heavenly Stars Sect already informed them of the selection rules, so no elder announced it now.
Nonetheless, the outer disciples knew that although they could not see the elders, they had pairs of eyes watching them from the depths of the void.
At the same time, the roaring sounds from the stone pillars became louder and louder, as if there were waves after waves hitting the shore.
Gradually, everyone at the scene felt the ground trembling and swaying, and they looked at one another in dismay as they did not see such a scene before.
As the trembling became more intense, some people began to feel uneasy, and their faces gradually turned pale.
Buzz!
A sound wave came from the eight stone pillars, and they suddenly glowed with a crystal white light.
The light shone from the inside out, illuminating the eight stone pillars as transparent as white jade.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Following the sound of something tearing the air, the dense white light rays from the surface of the eight stone pillars accurately shot in front of each outer disciple.
In an instant, a palm-sized jade plate with the Heavenly Stars Sect’s logo engraved on its surface appeared in everyone’s hand.
At the moment, they all looked the same.
Moreover, it was impossible to tell which piece would be one of the final nine pieces from the appearance alone.
Then, just as everyone looked at the jade plate in their hands, a voice suddenly echoed from the void above the square.
“The teleportation array leading to Elenion, the City of Ruins, is about to open.
Disciples, please keep in mind the reasons for the formation of Elenion, the City of Ruins, and its history.
At the same time, I hope you’ll seize this opportunity well because the future glory of Heavenly Stars Sect will be created by you.”
Although the sound was not loud, it made people feel very comfortable, like the feeling of a spring breeze.
Caspian could tell right away that it was Hadley.
Even though Hadley usually gave others an impression that he was not a serious person, his mannerism was definitely not what ordinary people could imagine since he could become the head of a sect.
The sentence, ‘the future glory of Heavenly Stars Sect will be created by you,’ was enough to make everyone present excited.
Following that, the eight stone pillars trembled even more violently, and layers of halos appeared on their surface.
The lights were like milk dropped in the water, spreading toward the surrounding, connecting, and merging, gradually forming a light curtain that surrounded the entire square.
The outer disciples in the square could not see the outside, and the people outside the square could not see the inside either.
Buzz!
As soon as the earth moved, everyone immediately saw mysterious runes appearing on the ground beneath them.
These patterns and the surrounding white light formed a resonance, constantly pulling and swaying the surrounding void, and the entire process lasted about a minute.
