2274 Gu Linglong Ranks Third on the Divine Maiden leaderboard, Human Ancestral Land Opens
Soon, Lan Yu, Shang Honghua, and others were arranged to accept the baptism of the Creation Pool.
Their talents were boosted, and each of them got a certain ability amplified by the Creation energy.
Lan Yu cultivated the Radiant Dao, so her talents in light-attribute cultivation techniques got a huge increase.
As for Chu Hong, her flame-attribute cultivation techniques were amplified.
After the baptism, their cultivation speed skyrocketed. Their ascension speed was so fast that it was stunning, and it was all reflected on the Hongmeng Leaderboards.
Their increase in ranking on the leaderboard left many speechless and astonished.
“Are those from the Pan Gu Sect taking some kind of drugs?”
“What kind of drugs could help them grow so fast? If there’s one, I want some. Damn it, I’m jealous.”
“Birds of a feather flock together. Chu Kuangren is a monster, and the people around him are nothing less than freaky.”
“Yeah, they’re freaky!”
“Don’t stop me. I want to join the Pan Gu Sect.”
“Who is Gu Linglong? She’s ranked third on the Divine Maiden Leaderboard. She wasn’t on the leaderboard before.”
Other than Lan Yu, Chu Hong, and the others’ rapid rise in the rankings, Gu Linglong’s sudden placement also captured many’s attention.
More importantly, Gu Linglong’s name was on the Primordial Leaderboard as well, so she was just a Primordial.
A Primordial seizing the third place on the Divine Maiden Leaderboard was unheard of.
It shocked the other Divine Maidens. If Gu Linglong broke through to the Grand Dao Realm, she would probably be ranked first!
How good must she look, and how talented must she be to rank so high?
Chu Kuangren noticed it as well.
What else could he say?
The Creation Pool was magical!
“Speaking of which, that place should be opening soon.” Chu Kuangren stared into the distant sky and muttered.
He had been sensing unusual buzzes from the Heaven Divide Sword in the past few years as if it was reacting to something.
Nuwa’s Creation Crystal reacted the same.
The only reason for the Nine Humanity Treasures to react so strongly was the opening of the Human Ancestral Land.
…
On a sword-shaped mountain peak at Divine Sword Palace, a black figure sat with his legs crossed.
He was the strongest Outlier in the Divine Sword Palace, the Sword Demon — Dugu Bupo.
He was also the strongest Monarch Seed of the Divine Sword Palace.
Another elderly figure arrived beside him. It was the Divine Sword Palace Ruler.
“The Human Ancestral Land is opening soon. How’s your preparation coming along?” the Palace Ruler asked.
Dugu Bupo took a deep breath and said, “I have cultivated my own Sword Twenty-four, and the trip to the Human Ancestral Land will prove how strong it is.”
“Very well. Remember, before you manifest the Sword Daoist law, do not engage with Chu Kuangren if you meet him,” the Palace Ruler said strictly.
Everyone knew how strong Chu Kuangren was. Even though Dugu Bupo had a lot of potential, the Palace Ruler believed he was still not Chu Kuangren’s match.
After all, the four Monarchs died just like that.
“I understand.”
Dugu Bupo had a hint of fear in his eyes when the name was mentioned. His fight with Chu Kuangren last time ended with his defeat, and it still bothered him.
Even though his Sword Dao had improved since that match, he soon got the news of Chu Kuangren killing four Monarchs.
Chu Kuangren may have relied on external energy to beat the Monarchs, but it also proved how strong he had gotten.
Moreover, he had also broken through to the Grand Dao Supreme Honorable Realm.
“Chu Kuangren is strong and seems to have endless tricks up his sleeves, but the Human Ancestral Land has restrictions. No Monarch-level powers can be used inside there, so he won’t be able to use his Dragonslayer. You don’t need to worry about that.”
The Palace Ruler did not want to pressure Dugu Bupo too much, so he consoled him.
At the same time in the Heavenly Human Sanctuary, there was a cave with Daoist law energy swirling around it.
A figure in white emerged from within, and there was a Taichi diagram behind him.
“Congratulations on your recovery, Senior Lu!”
Someone came and congratulated the man.
The man in white was Lu Wuheng, who almost died in his fight with Chu Kuangren.
During the Nine Ways Mountain Gathering, Chu Kuangren beat him and almost destroyed his Great Dao.
He was brought back to the Heavenly Human Sanctuary, and the sanctuary spent a lot of effort to heal him.
They could not let him die because, with the Human Ancestral Land opening, he would still be a powerful contendant.
Lu Wuheng looked into the sky. When he saw the name on the first place of the Supreme Honorable Leaderboard, his fists clenched tightly, and veins popped on the back of his hands.
He envied Chu Kuangren.
“He’s first on the Supreme Honorable Leaderboard!”
Lu Wuheng had been recovering all the years and was not updated with the news of the outside world. Hence, he looked at the Supreme Honorable Leaderboard with hatred and jealousy.
The other juniors exchanged a baffled gaze.
They knew Chu Kuangren was not just the first place on the Supreme Honorable Leaderboard, but he even killed four Monarchs before he was ranked first.
If they told Lu Wuheng the shocking news, he might be mortified.
After coming out from recovery, Lu Wuheng disappeared and headed to a certain place within the Heavenly Human Sanctuary.
He stood before a bamboo cottage that had flowers surrounding it.
Each and every flower and grass around the cottage were rare Immortal Herbs.
Any alchemist would be astonished by the flowery scene around the bamboo cottage.
In the middle of the land, a slender figure was busy tending to the flowers and grasses. She had a veil over her face, and her presence was subtle. It was as if she could disappear at any moment.
Lu Wuheng was terrified.
He could not believe she had cultivated the Heaven Human Union Art to such a high level!
“Wuxia,” Lu Wuheng said softly.
Mingyue Wuxia noticed Lu Wuheng’s arrival but was not overly surprised. She continued watering the flowers around her as if the flowers were more important than Lu Wuheng.
Lu Wuheng was no stranger to her care for the flowers. Instead of blaming her, he simply said, “The Human Ancestral Land is opening soon. What do you think of the people going in this time?”
“The Human Ancestral Land is a land of treasure for humans. Everyone has their own trials to clear. As for what Opportunities of Fortune lie ahead, it depends on one’s fate. I don’t have an opinion about it.”
She did not care about the Opportunities of Fortune because no one was her match.
Of course, it remained a thought in her mind, and she did not make it verbal.
“Also, Chu Kuangren is ranked first on the Supreme Honorable Leaderboard, and I’m afraid he will go to the Human Ancestral Land. What do you think?”
Lu Wuheng paid close attention to Mingyue Wuxia when he informed her of Chu Kuangren.
Her hand paused for a moment before a smile appeared behind her veil. “I look forward to it.”
She did not care about anyone else except for Chu Kuangren.
He was her only worthy opponent.
“Is that so…” Lu Wuheng muttered.
The jealousy in his eyes grew stronger.
…
The Heavenly Buddhist Pure Land was known as the most harmonious pure land in the Great Hongmeng Universe.
It was the origin of Buddhism.
Inside a grand and majestic hall, a handsome young monk was sitting in front of Buddha. He was chanting softly with a string of Buddhist beads in his hands.
He was radiating with Buddhist light and exuded a harmonious presence.
“Gu Chan, this trip to the Human Ancestral Land is important. Take the Violet Golden Bowl. I hope you can use it well to preach Buddhism.”
The Buddha shot a streak of violet light that landed in front of Gu Chan.
It was a beautiful-looking violet bowl.
It was one of the Nine Humanity Treasures, the Violet Golden Bowl.
“Thank you for your blessing.”
Gu Chan said as he put his hands together.
