Duan Ling Tian could not help but gasp in excitement when he heard Elder Huo’s words. He was already excited when he found out there might be a treasure vault left behind by a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation. He was even more excited now that he learned the pseudo realm was jointly created by three powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation!

A pseudo realm jointly created by three powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation must contain extraordinary treasures!’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as his breathing quickened. It took him a while to calm down. He was extremely excited.

Since they created this pseudo realm together before they ascended, they must have a close relationship. They must have left all their possessions here in the mundane realm since they can’t bring it to the Devata Realms. These things might not be worth much in the Devata Realms, but it should be very valuable in the mundane realm!’ Duan Ling Tian who had just barely calmed down became excited again when he thought about this.

As Duan Ling Tian faced the coming tests, he was still excited. In fact, there were a few times where he was distracted. Fortunately, he did not find the tests too difficult to handle.

It’s getting harder now. The final test is going to be really tough. I wonder when does it end?’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself after passing a fairly difficult test. He began to focus on the test. He did not dare to get distracted.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian had passed quite a lot of tests. The tests began to appear not long after he entered the pseudo realm. He could not back out so he could only go forward.

The tests were simple in the beginning but they were getting harder and harder. Even Duan Ling Tian found the current test difficult. However, he had not unleashed his full strength nor had he used all his powerful techniques.

“Let’s continue!”

The ground seemed to shake as the next test appeared. Ten gigantic beasts appeared out of thin air before Duan Ling Tian, pressuring him.

Duan Ling Tian’s expression turned solemn when he saw this. He began to concentrate in earnest. It would only take one mistake for him to be eliminated! Elder Huo had informed him that if he failed one of the tests in the pseudo realm, he would be instantly eliminated and transported out. Once he was transported out, it was impossible for him to enter the pseudo realm again. At that time, he would lose the opportunity to obtain the treasures left behind by the three powerhouses at the Ninth Form of Saint Celestial Stage who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation.

Duan Ling Tian felt distressed just thinking about it. Therefore, he did not dare to lose focus and became serious.

Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!

As the ten gigantic beasts charged at Duan Ling Tian, the space around him began to turn volatile. The sounds of wind howling were thunderous!

“Black Turtle’s Barrier!” Duan Ling Tian instantly cast his defensive Divine Ability. This was the first time he had used a Divine Ability since he entered the pseudo realm. This was the strongest defensive Divine Ability in the Fire Worship Sect!

Once Duan Ling Tian cast the Black Turtle’s Barrier, the gigantic silhouette of a black turtle that looked like a beast from ancient times instantly shrouded Duan Ling Tian, protecting him. In order to get to him, one had to pass through the barrier!

The ten beasts howled, growled, and roared as they pounced at Duan Ling Tian. A terrifying energy surged out of them, making the ground shake as wind blew about violently. The force from the wind was so strong that it felt as though the sky was going to collapse. The ten gigantic beasts attacked together, their force was so strong that the sun and moon seemed to dim. Their joined forces swept toward Duan Ling Tian and landed on the barrier that was protecting Duan Ling Tian.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Instantly, thunderous explosions reverberated in the air. The barrier began to shake violently like a sailboat that was being tossed around by violent waves. After a while, it was apparent that the barrier was on the brink of collapse.

However, the ten gigantic beasts seemed to have exhausted their strength as well when they jointly unleashed their attacks.

It held up,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as his eyes lit up, ‘No wonder it’s acknowledged as the strongest defensive Divine Ability in the Fire Worship Sect. Its protective force is so strong even though I’ve only mastered it at the elementary stage…”

At the same time, the Black Turtle’s Barrier vanished without a trace with just one thought from Duan Ling Tian.

Hu!

Then, Duan Ling Tian lifted his arm and a Thousand Inscription Saint Sword appeared in his hand. After that, he let the Thousand Inscriptions Saint Sword go and it flew out on its own and began to slash at the ten gigantic beasts.

This was a technique from the third stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword. The third stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword was also known as the Sword Warding Heart. The sword would go where the heart willed it to go!

“This sword technique I mastered is definitely the strongest sword technique in the Dao Martial Saint Land!’ Duan Ling Tian was very confident about this.

Xiu!

The short-lived sound of a sword’s cry rang in the air and a sword ray appeared in just a blink of an eye. The gigantic beasts fell to the ground in the wake of the sword.

Just like that, Duan Ling Tian successfully passed another test.

“It’s closing,” Elder Huo suddenly said.

Duan Ling Tian asked in confusion, “Closing? What’s closing?”

“The entrance to this pseudo realm is closed,” Elder Huo answered.

“The entrance is closed?” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up when he heard this. “Then, this means no one would be able to enter the pseudo realm anymore!”

“That’s right,” Elder Huo replied.

Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, thrilled when he heard this. After all, once the entrance is closed, no one could enter anymore. This meant he would have fewer competitors. He had everything to gain and nothing to lose from the closing of the entrance.

I’ve entered this pseudo realm for quite a while now, but the entrance is only closing now. I’m afraid the forces near Sin City like the Black Kshetra Sect have gotten word about this, and they’ve probably sent their men in.’ Duan Ling Tian furrowed his eyebrows when he thought about this.

Suddenly, the sound of wind howling could be heard. Duan Ling Tian knew he was about to face his next test.

Meanwhile, outside the pseudo realm, those who were eliminated watched as the Spatial Tear began to close.

The people guarding the entrance widened their eyes in shock when they saw this. “The entrance is closed?”

After a few moments, more people from forces outside of Sin City arrived as well. All of them were incredibly frustrated when they realized they were just a step too late.

“Damn it! I was so close!”

“Just a couple of dozens of breaths’ time!”

“Why am I so unlucky that I missed entering the treasure vault that was left behind by a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation? It’s such a rare occurrence!”

After a while, more people arrived. When they learned that the entrance to the treasure vault left behind by a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation was closed, all of them regretted not coming sooner.

Hu!

A gust of wind suddenly appeared and two young men appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Young Leader!”

Young Leader!”

When the two young men appeared, two groups of people who were standing outside instantly greeted them respectfully.

One of the two young men was finely dressed. He was skinny, frail, and pale. He looked just like a good-for-nothing rich kid. The other young men held a feathered fan and wore a silk kerchief on his head. He was dressed like a scholar, but he seemed to be in a slightly wretched state. He had lost his usual gentle demeanor.

These two young men were none other than the Young Leaders of the Seven Kill Alliance and the Thousand Years Alliance, Ou Qing and Dong Guo Zhi! Both of them were eliminated at the same time!
