Duan Ling Tian began to look around when he heard the voice, but he did not see anyone. The voice seemed to have come from nowhere. “Who’s it?!”

“I know you must be very curious about my identity… I’m one of the surviving creators of this realm!” The owner of the voice seemed able to read Duan Ling Tian’s mind. Then, he continued to say, “I guess you must be very curious why I revealed that I’m one of the creators of this realm.”

At this point, he stopped speaking.

In fact, Duan Ling Tian was not surprised at all since Elder Huo had already told him he was in a pseudo realm created by three powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation! However, this did not mean the others were not surprised.

“One of the creators? The voice said he’s one of the creators of this realm?”

Everyone was surprised when they heard the same voice that Duan Ling Tian heard. Regardless of their status, whether they were ordinary powerhouses at the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage or powerhouses at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage from Sin City or the Karmapas from the Black Kshetra Sect, all of them were shocked.

Previously, all of them were under the assumption that the realm was created by one powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation. However, the voice just informed them that he was one of the creators of this realm!

It was clear this was no coincidence since the voice was transmitted to everyone who passed the elimination test at the same time.

Currently, the only people left in the pseudo realm were the only ones who had passed the elimination test.

“When I said I’m one of the creators of this realm, I’m sure all of you understand that I didn’t single-handedly create this realm!”

The voice continued to transmit into everyone’s ear.

“First things first, let me introduce myself…I am Zheng Dong Ji. I’ve achieved the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, passed the Heavenly Tribulation, and was preparing for my ascension before I created this realm!”

Those who were in the know, including Duan Ling Tian, remained calm since they were already aware of this. On the other hand, those who were unaware were pleasantly surprised.

They were pleasantly surprised because they had finally received confirmation that they were indeed in the treasure vault left behind by powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had successfully passed the Heavenly Tribulation. There were definitely a lot of treasures here. Only a fool would think that the treasures here were ordinary.

“As I said earlier, I’m only one of the creators of this realm. This realm was jointly created by me and my two friends. Similar to me, my friends are also at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage and had successfully passed the Heavenly Tribulations before we created this realm!” The voice continued to say.

This time, apart from Duan Ling Tian, the others were shocked by what they heard. Even the few powerhouses at the Seventh Form Saint Celestial Stage from Sin City and the Karmapas from the Black Kshetra Sect were surprised. However, they quickly regained their composure since they were all elite powerhouses in the Dao Martial Saint Land.

When they regained their senses, they were in awe.

“This treasure vault was actually left behind by three powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had successfully passed the Heavenly Tribulation…”

“Doesn’t this mean the treasures here belong to three powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation. It’s possible they’d left their legacies here as well.”

At the thought of this possibility, even the powerhouses at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage were excited. All of them were excited and looking forward to obtaining the treasures in here.

“A treasure vault that was left behind by three powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who had passed the Heavenly Tribulation… We’ve hit the jackpot!”

“Who would’ve known that I would have such a fortuitous encounter!” Someone laughed.

“This is amazing!”

Everyone was extremely excited. They only calmed down when the voice began speaking again.

“Three of us had left the treasures we had obtained throughout our lives in this realm. Moreover, we also left behind some of our cultivation methods. Naturally, only the last one standing would be able to obtain everything we left here.” After pausing for a beat, the voice continued to say, “However, all of you have a high chance of succeeding••••• This is because all of you have successfully passed the elimination tests we had laid out. Everyone else has been eliminated except for the few of you. However, it’s too soon for you to feel happy. The elimination tests are just the beginning.”

Everyone, including Duan Ling Tian, was dumbfounded when they heard this.

“All those tests we had to face earlier… are just the beginning?” Duan Ling Tian had a bitter smile on his face.

Everyone else was also rendered speechless by this news. However, these people did not remain silent for long before they broke out in a rant.

“Is this a joke? All the tests we faced so far are not the end, it’s just the beginning? Are you kidding me?!”

“Based on all the tests before, I don’t think anyone with a cultivation base below the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage will be able to pass it!”

“At this time, I don’t think there are any cultivators below the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in this realm.”

Everyone knew this to be true. However, they were unaware that there was an exception. Duan Ling Tian was far from being at the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

Currently, Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation was merely approaching the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. He had not even broken through to the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage! He was just at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, the Saint Origin Form!

After cultivating for half a year in Sin City, Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation base was finally at the Saint Origin Form. Although this was an amazing feat, Duan Ling Tian still felt dissatisfied.

“Weak! I’m too weak… My cultivation base is still too weak. I can only kill an ordinary powerhouse at the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage providing I unleash all my strength and use the Jasper Celestial Sword.”

“If it’s a powerhouse at the peak of the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, I would only be able to severely injure him but I wouldn’t be able to kill him. If it’s a powerhouse at the Fifth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage or higher, I would definitely be defeated!”

Duan Ling Tian felt the pressure after listening to Zheng Dong Ji said that all the tests earlier were just the precursor for more tests. He had already used all his strength to pass the first series of tests, he could not imagine how much more difficult the second series of tests would be. Moreover, who knew if there were a third or fourth series of tests after that.

Duan Ling Tian’s heart sank when he thought of that.

“After this, all of you will leave this space and be transported to a new place. At that time, you will team up with the others and work together. You will be divided into three groups. All of the group members need to pass the test in order to pass the test. Only two groups would remain at the end of the test.”

No one responded to Zheng Dong Ji when he mentioned elimination since it was a matter of course. However, what Zheng Dong Ji said next changed everyone’s expressions.

“For the second test, those who are eliminated won’t be transported out of the realm. Elimination means death!”

Death!

Everyone’s expression turned grim when they heard that the test was a life-or-death test. Many weaker cultivators felt a pang of regret for entering the realm once they heard this. Unfortunately, there was no cure for regret in this world.

Currently, Duan Ling Tian was one of the weakest cultivators among the group of remaining people. However, he did not regret entering the realm. Instead, he began to plan his next move.

Based on Zheng Dong Ji’s words, we would be divided into three groups for the second test. All members are equally important and we have to work together! This means everyone has to pass. This means even if one group member fails, the entire group would fail.’ Duan Ling Tian sighed in relief when he thought of this.

Duan Ling Tian thought his chance of passing the test was higher if he did not have to rely solely on his strength alone. If he was grouped with stronger people, his chance of passing was high.

Many people shared the same thought.

“I hope I’ll be grouped with the stronger powerhouses. In that case, my chance of passing the test would be higher.”

“God, please group me with those strong powerhouses at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”

Many weaker cultivators were fervently praying that they would not be grouped with weak cultivators. On the other hand, the strong cultivators who were arrogant did not care who they were grouped with. There were some who wished they would not be grouped with too many weak cultivators since the weak cultivators might hinder them. With too many weak cultivators in a group, they might die!

“Now, let me announce…” Zheng Dong Ji’s voice suddenly rang in the air again, surprising everyone, including Duan Ling Tian. “The start of the second test!”
