Chapter 1289 The First Wave of Opportunity, Arrives!_2
As for the first and second options, the number is estimated to be fifty-fifty or forty-sixty.
Personally, if it wasn't for the Thunder Horn Golden Dragon factor, he would definitely choose the second option.
After all, the first option relies too much on fate and luck.
Though there is more time to search, the matter of chances, when the area is too vast, it really depends on one's luck.
However, with the Thunder Horn Golden Dragon factor, the route and goal became clear.
"Head straight up, arriving at the purple mountain layer with utmost speed,"
"Then circle around the purple mountain layer, heading towards the den of the Thunder horn Golden Dragon."
Although this route might take a slight detour compared to going directly, the expected rewards from the purple mountain layer would be higher.
Having come to the Infinite Divine Mountain, how could one not be greedy?
Since he participated in the selection for the Divine People Hall, regardless of whether his abilities are sufficient or not, his ultimate goal would never just be to become an alternate for the Divine People Hall!
He, too, would like to reach for one of the five Divine People Hall spots!
...
Directly upward!
Wang Ye did not waste any time.
He was among the first group to enter the Infinite Divine Mountain, the first group to rush to the mountain layer.
He knew very well that many treasures were actually not hard to obtain; it often might come down to just four words—
First come, first served.
Such as the Heavenly God Jade and Earth Divine Jade that could be found just by picking them up off the ground.
"The fourth layer of the Infinite Divine Mountain, just corresponding to the four types of Divine Jade," Wang Ye was not particularly interested in the Heavenly God Jade.
But he was quite interested in the Ultimate Divine Jade and even the Infinite Divine Jade.
If he was not mistaken, he would encounter the Ultimate Divine Jade at the mountain layer.
And at the extremely dangerous mountain top layer, there might be a chance to obtain the Infinite Divine Jade!
Snap!
He casually picked up a Heavenly God Jade from the middle layer.
Wang Ye and Gun Genius continued their ascent, as customary as every day for thirty years.
Despite not ranking highly at the moment, this did not affect their goal in the slightest.
The competition on the leaderboard, the last twenty years were crucial!
"We haven't encountered a single team," Gun Genius whispered.
"We won't meet them now," Wang Ye smiled.
You could only encounter them if you walk diagonally.
Going straight up is the shortest distance.
All the teams were placed in different locations; as long as their own speed was fast enough, they would not meet other teams before reaching the mountain layer.
It was possible to minimize friction and collisions and avoid needless combat.
Of course, it was inevitable to encounter wild Primitive Fierce Beast Emperors and Divine Beast Emperors native to the Infinite Divine Mountain.
But for him, these were not threats but rather excellent supplements!
Boom!!!
With a swift raise of his hand and a slash, Wang Ye easily killed his adversary, harvesting Primitive Points.
Over there, Gun Genius' spear was like a roaming dragon, with explosive power just as astonishing; a thousand years of cultivation had greatly improved his spear technique from before.
Especially the Night Water Divine Spear, which he wielded with even greater practiced steadiness.
Whoosh~~
The Life Divine Jade within Wang Ye lit up.
He deployed the Chaos Skill of Divine Jade, Jade Spring Baptism.
Descending onto Gun Genius, it was like being covered by a layer of jade-made spring water, exuding a hazy beauty.
Gun Genius' spent strength rapidly recovered, including the injuries inflicted by the Primitive Divine Beast Emperor, healing at an astonishing speed.
Accelerating while recovering.
Gun Genius always maintained a peak state.

Because of the Jade Spring Baptism.
A pair of beautiful eyes looked towards Wang Ye, Gun Genius feeling warmth and amazement in her heart.
Wang Ye, was truly impressive.
In just a short millennium, he had even mastered the Jade People Divine Race's Divine Jade Unlimited Path...
Throughout the process, everything was considered thoroughly.
By his side, all she needed to do was battle, which was very relaxing.
Moreover, his strength was outstanding, he was very considerate of her, and a genuinely good person.
"What's wrong?" Wang Ye looked towards Gun Genius.
"No, nothing," Gun Genius quietly responded, lowering her little head.
Under the cover of the Jade Spring, her small face blushed imperceptibly.

Sixty years passed.
The rankings in the second round of selections changed day by day.
Surprisingly, the Six Kings did not show the dominance they had during the first round, with several ranked even beyond one hundred.
Conversely, many unknown cultivators shot up the ranks.
"Chong brother, we've been pushed out of the top two hundred," Xu Xin said with a wry smile.
"It's too early," Xu Chong was nonchalant: "The strong Xu Xu brother is currently ranked only 72nd, rankings now are pointless, just for those fools to entertain themselves."
Kong Shanling's voice was cold: "Those currently ranking high are basically teams staying in the middle layer to search for treasures, looking for opportunities. Their upper limit is very low, and eventually, only a few teams might push their way into being alternates for the Divine People Hall with late achievements."
"Even the mountain peaks require competition, and luck plays its part," Xu Xin felt the pressure. "If our luck is bad, we would bring shame to the Void Race."
"No need," Kong Shanling shook his head. "We are a team of three, and our strength is sufficient. If we encounter a team from the top ranks, we'll just intercept them. If the rules don't forbid it, it is allowed."
"That ruthless?" Xu Xin was astonished.
"In a world where strength reigns supreme, the powerful are revered," Xu Chong said. "I don't like to depend on luck. We will seize whatever treasures and opportunities we can find in the mountain layers, and if we can't, we'll just take them by force. It's that simple."
"Of course, we must be sure that they are indeed among the top-ranked and that we are sure to win."
"We should avoid unnecessary battles and acting on pride."
"Everything is based on advancing!"
...
Step! Step!
Two figures arrived at the mountain layer at the same time!
Looking down from here, everything was hazy, and the bottom was not visible.
"The pressure has clearly become much stronger," Wang Ye said with a chill.
The pressure of the mountain layer was more than ten times stronger than that of the middle layer.
The oppressive feeling was exceedingly intense.
The higher one went, the more refined and powerful the energy became, and the willpower's pressure increased.
"Going up further?" Gun Genius inquired.
"No," Wang Ye said. "With our strength, it's unknown whether we can smoothly reach the Mountain Top Layer. Even if we were to reach it, we may not have the time to find treasures."
"Okay," Gun Genius followed Wang Ye's lead.
"Let's go, time to pluck some treasures," Wang Ye locked onto the location of the Thunder Horn Golden Dragon.
Though somewhat distant compared to the bottom of the mountain, the gap had significantly closed.
A rough estimate was that it would take around ten years to reach it.
And during these ten years, they could also search the mountain layer.
Who knew, there might be some unexpected surprises?
Like...
"Ultimate Divine Jade," Wang Ye said as he looked at the thick ice wall before him, and with a bang, it burst open.
The Life Divine Jade trembled slightly, and Wang Ye couldn't help but be surprised.
Taking out a complete piece of Ultimate Divine Jade, he looked towards Gun Genius, and the two exchanged a smile.
What did it mean to achieve something effortlessly?
This was it.
As expected, the treasures of the Infinite Divine Mountain were often a matter of first come, first served.
Of course, luck played a part as well.
"Let's go, let's check the surrounding area," Wang Ye said with penetrating eyes as he began to search.
This world, frozen like jade, acted like an independent territory, harboring mysterious and powerful forces.
He was very familiar with it!
Because it was identical to the Life Divine Jade!
Having entered the Hidden Jade Realm, Wang Ye was not at all unfamiliar with this force.
It was the Divine Jade Unlimited Path!
The surging Divine Jade Energy released, connecting all the surrounding ice walls, coupled with the energy condensed by the mountain layer, making the Divine Jades here consolidate faster and more easily.
Bitterly cold to the bone!
Staying here was not easy at all.
Not to mention the omnipresent pressure of the Infinite Divine Mountain, delivering a double oppression!
Moreover, the presence of the Primitive Divine Beast Emperor loomed!
Humph, just a piece of trash.
Bang!
Wang Ye directly shattered that huge chaos divine body, like an ice cavern!
[Killed a Level 5 Chaos Divine.]
[Obtained 40 Primitive Points.]
Effortless!
His strength was now immense!
Unhindered.
Wang Ye explored cautiously.
Inside the small ice wall, one, two, three pieces of Heavenly God Jade... were successively grasped.
The cold became even more intense, but the harvest grew as well.
After securing the fifth piece of Heavenly God Jade, Wang Ye discovered another piece of Ultimate Divine Jade, set within an icy gate ahead.
Bang! With brute force.
Wang Ye broke through the gate and took the second piece of Ultimate Divine Jade into his possession.
The scene suddenly became clear, revealing a not-so-large ice cave.
Inside sat beautiful ice sculptures, lifelike and having lasted countless eras.
Within the ice cave, it resembled a miniature cultivation room.
Small yet complete.
Everything that should be there was present.
A lifeless chaos divine body sat squarely in the center.
Jade Beauty Divine Race, Chaos Divine!
In front of him, sat a piece of pristine and clear Ice God Jade!
The first wave of opportunity had arrived!
