Primordial Star Scripture

Seeing Ye Chen’s composed expression and hearing his resonant words, numerous martial artists were startled in their hearts, "Does Ye Chen really have the confidence to seize the first place in the Divine Institutes’ assessments?"

"My God, the first place in the Divine Institutes’ assessments—I can’t even dare to think about it, but he actually dares to strive for it!"

Many true gods who had just emerged from the Nine Suns Ancient Land were especially shocked.

The gaze of several Sovereigns in the crowd was now converged on Ye Chen.

For the assessments of the Divine Institutes, with their statuses, they wouldn’t necessarily go to watch.

But this time, with Ye Chen involved, the Sovereigns knew that probably both Sovereign Xuechen and the Northern Territory King would be present.

Moreover, they had already decided to definitely go to the site of the Divine Institutes’ assessments to see if this young man could truly meet the two Sovereigns’ expectations and capture the first place!

At this moment, the East Territory King’s anxious heart was somewhat relieved.

When he heard Sovereign Hong Li say that Sovereign Xuechen and the Northern Territory King had three demands for Ye Chen, the East Territory King was also worried for Ye Chen.

But when he heard that the first demand of the two Sovereigns was for Ye Chen to win the first place in the Divine Institutes’ assessments, the East Territory King was more confident than everyone else that Ye Chen had a great chance of achieving this first place.

Others might not know of Ye Chen’s wonders, but the East Territory King was well aware!

Keep in mind, it was the East Territory King who brought Ye Chen to the Divine Kingdom of Wamumu Mountain.

The East Territory King not only knew that Ye Chen had obtained the most precious "Eye of the Divine Sea" in the undersea Divine Palace, but he also knew when he initially brought Ye Chen to the Divine Kingdom, Ye Chen was merely at the late stage of the Heavenly Saint Realm.

In just a few months, Ye Chen had already become an Eight Tribulations True God!

An Eight Tribulations True God might not mean much, but to go from the late stage of Heavenly Saint Realm to an Eight Tribulations True God in a few months, even by the standards of the entire Divine Kingdom of Wamumu Mountain, that was absolutely a legend!

Even the East Territory King, when he first saw that Ye Chen was an Eight Tribulations True God, could hardly believe it!

Because the three Sovereigns of Divine Dragon Mountain kept giving Ye Chen a hard time, the East Territory King had no chance to ask Ye Chen in detail about what had happened during this time.

But the East Territory King knew that Ye Chen’s natural talent and comprehension were absolutely among the prodigies of the Divine Kingdom!

Such a person certainly had the confidence to contend for the first place in the Divine Institutes’ assessments!

The East Territory King believed that if Ye Chen said he would strive to achieve it, he would definitely do it!

Another Sovereign in the crowd, Qin Yuntian from Divine Dragon Mountain, did not share the same thoughts as the East Territory King at all.

"The first place in the Divine Institutes’ assessments?"

"Hmph, this kid, I want to see how he will seize the first place!"

"This assessment has many variables, and the assessed aspects are also numerous. Even in my prime, I wouldn’t dare to claim that I had the assurance to win the first place in the Divine Institutes’ assessments, and yet he talks big!"

Qin Yuntian’s eyes flickered with thought, "I was planning to cultivate a few peerless geniuses from my Divine Dragon Mountain a bit more before allowing them to participate in the next Divine Institutes’ assessments. This time, though, they have to come out. Even if they have no hope of winning the first place, giving this Ye Chen some trouble is a must!"

"Hmph, they think that since the ’Sovereign Order’ forbids the Divine Venerables and Sovereigns of Divine Dragon Mountain from dealing with Ye Chen, we have no means left?"

"We from Divine Dragon Mountain alone are not enough. This time, I heard that the descendants of several friends of mine will also participate in the Divine Institutes’ assessments, including two who are very confident about seizing the first place. I must also speak to them!"

"I want to see what the outcome will be for Ye Chen if he fails to meet the demands of ’Sovereign Xuechen’ and the ’Northern Territory King’!"

Up in the void.

Sovereign Hong Li nodded upon hearing Ye Chen’s words.

If this youth had been daunted after hearing the first demand and had not dared to face it, then she would have been greatly disappointed.

Although she did not hold much hope for this youth to win the first place in the Divine Institutes’ assessments, the courage Ye Chen displayed had pleased Sovereign Hong Li even more.

"Ye Chen, seizing the first place in the Divine Institutes’ assessments is just the first demand placed upon you," Sovereign Hong Li continued to speak to Ye Chen.

"And the second demand from the two Sovereigns is, if you complete the first demand and join the ’Supreme Divine Institute’, in three years, you must enter ’Heavenly God Mountain’, and safely emerge from ’Heavenly God Mountain’!"

As soon as they heard the three words "Heavenly God Mountain", not only did Lin Xiaowan, Mu Ling, Mu Xiao, and those of the Supreme Divine Institute who were filled with animosity towards Ye Chen, like Yang Yun and Yang Yan, have their expressions change drastically, but even the few Sovereigns present were visibly shaken.

Clearly, this "Heavenly God Mountain" was not an ordinary place!

Seeing everyone’s reactions, Ye Chen was taken aback.

Having recently arrived in the Divine Kingdom, he had no idea what "Heavenly God Mountain" was.

"Ye Chen, I never expected that those two Sovereigns would actually allow you to enter ’Heavenly God Mountain,’" Xiaojiu said in a mixture of surprise and panic, communicating telepathically with Ye Chen from within his Ice Snow Jade Pendant.

Clearly, Xiaojiu knew of this place called "Heavenly God Mountain"!

"What is Heavenly God Mountain like?" Ye Chen asked Xiaojiu curiously through telepathic communication.

"This ’Heavenly God Mountain’ is a death-level secret realm within the Divine Kingdom of the Nine Suns Ancient Land, but it is also an exceptionally precious place of transformation!"

"I’ve heard that without great power, one simply cannot enter ’Heavenly God Mountain,’ but even among those who can, despite being formidable, once inside, if one in ten thousand survives, that would be considered exceedingly fortunate. This illustrates just how perilous this region is!"

"Of course, though it is incredibly dangerous, countless warriors strive with all their might to enter, and many never even get the chance. This is because those who manage to safely return from this realm improve their cultivation by at least a small level, and there are even those whose cultivation has advanced by a whole level—transforming directly from a True God to a God King, or from a God King to a Divine Venerable, inside Heavenly God Mountain!"

"As for the specific conditions inside Heavenly God Mountain, Lord Yan didn’t imbue me with that knowledge," Xiaojiu admitted.

Ye Chen was distinctly shaken by Xiaojiu’s words.

Heavenly God Mountain was truly miraculous, a place where everyone who came out had advanced their cultivation levels? And there were some who had advanced by an entire level?!

And Xiaojiu’s mention of the dangers also put Ye Chen on alert.

Ye Chen understood that a place with such extraordinary miracles would naturally have great dangers; otherwise, everyone would rush in to increase their cultivation.

While Ye Chen was inquiring about Heavenly God Mountain from Xiaojiu, Sovereign Hong Li said to him, "Heavenly God Mountain is not a simple place, and many of the unparalleled geniuses from our Supreme Divine Institute have fallen inside it."

"Ye Chen, this second requirement is an opportunity for you, as well as a test," she added.

"Back then, when Junior Sister Long Li was fourteen, she entered Heavenly God Mountain, where she transformed into an Upper God King."

"I hope you can come out safely, just like Junior Sister Long Li."

Hearing Sovereign Hong Li’s words, Ye Chen nodded.

Xiaojiu had mentioned that the opportunity to enter "Heavenly God Mountain" was something many would violence for, yet could not attain. The dangers were immense, but the rewards and importance were clear to imagine.

Ye Chen knew that the two Sovereigns’ second requirement for him was not meant as a mere difficulty. Characters like Sovereign Xuechen and the Northern Territory King didn’t need to offer him such an opportunity just to trouble him.

The two Sovereigns had arranged this with the hope that he could make as big a breakthrough and improvement as Long Li had inside.

The subsequent words of Sovereign Hong Li confirmed Ye Chen’s speculation.

"The reason for this second requirement is actually related to the third requirement the two Sovereigns have for you," she went on to say.

"Ye Chen, the third requirement the two Sovereigns have for you is to snatch one of the ten God King positions representing the Divine Kingdom of the Nine Suns Ancient Land in the ’Star Domain Genius War’ that will take place in ten years. You must fight in the ’Battle of the God Kings’ against other equally outstanding God Kings from different Divine Kingdoms in the Star Domain Genius War—and you must make it to the final round!"

"Originally, Junior Sister Long Li was going to represent the Nine Suns Ancient Land in the Genius War of God Kings, and she definitely had the capability to secure a top-three position for our land. However, due to you, she has already broken through to the realm of Divine Venerable. Now, even if she were to participate in the ’Star Domain Genius War,’ she could only take part in the ’Battle of the Divine Venerables.’"

"Thus, you are to take up her place. This also demands that you, within ten years, break through to the God King Realm, and you must possess formidable capabilities within the God King Realm! This is why the two Sovereigns have arranged for you to undertake this trial at ’Heavenly God Mountain,’ as the second requirement," she explained.

Boom!

Upon hearing Sovereign Hong Li mention that Ye Chen would participate in the "Star Domain Genius War," many of the Sovereigns present were stunned.

With the "Star Domain Genius War" approaching in ten years, and Ye Chen still being an Eighth Tribulation True God, the two Sovereigns were actually demanding that he partake in the "Battle of the God Kings"!

Others might not understand the extent of the "Star Domain Genius War," but surely the Sovereigns were more than familiar with it.

"Star Domain Genius War" was a grand event in which countless Star Domains and Divine Kingdoms, just like the Nine Suns Ancient Land, participated!

Such a "Star Domain Genius War" could even impact many aspects of a Divine Kingdom!

The entire "Star Domain Genius War" is separated into the "True God Battle," the "God King Battle," and the "Divine Venerable Battle."

Each confrontation shows each Divine Kingdom presenting ten contenders.

These ten contenders are indeed the strongest ten individuals in their respective Divine Kingdoms participating in the battle, which indicates how intensely fierce the situation is.

These battles could attract the attention of countless Divine Kingdoms and warriors, and even beings who have surpassed the status of Sovereign might appear at the grand event of the "Star Domain Genius War!"

For such a grand event, naturally, each Divine Kingdom is extremely cautious in selecting their contenders, and they would hold competitions to pick those who would participate in the genius war.

Sovereign Xuechen and the Northern Territory King had actually instructed Ye Chen to seize a spot representing the Nine Suns Ancient Land in the "Battle of the God Kings," and they also demanded that Ye Chen make it to the final round when competing against the God Kings from other Divine Kingdoms.

This difficulty was truly immense!

To know that even formidable beings like Yang Yun and Yang Yan couldn’t assure their progress to the final round when clashing with God Kings from other Divine Kingdoms!
