After having a baby with my wife in my dream, they all came true.

"I've got it. Thank you Daoist Fellow Fu Guang for letting me know."

Lin Chuan remembered half of Taoist Fu Guang's words and ignored the other half.

There are some things that Taoist Fu Guang thinks about too complicatedly, and he feels it is unnecessary.

"Then I will talk to Fellow Daoist Lin about the competition system?"

"Please speak." Lin Chuan clasped his fists.

"The format of each talent competition is different. This year's preliminary round will use a cage battle."

As he spoke, Taoist Fu Guang pointed to the highest point of the platform and said, "Do you see that round ball?"

Lin Chuan blinked, "What is that?"

"Space Immortal Artifact, the Sphere of All Living Things."

Taoist Fu Guang sighed, "It was left by a great immortal in ancient times, and now it is jointly controlled by eleven super powers."

"Including the Yuntai space, everything is constructed from the sphere of all living beings."

"The so-called cage battle is that the ball of all living things generates cage spaces and randomly selects some contestants to enter."

"The last winner in the cage will advance to the second round."

"Some unlucky guys have good talents and may be able to enter the top 100, but if they encounter super geniuses in a cage battle, they will only be eliminated."

"However, the spirituality of the Ball of All Living Things is extremely strong and it will not place the seeds of super forces in a cage space."

Listening to Taoist Fuguang's introduction, Lin Chuan seemed to be thinking about something and asked:

"According to Daoist Fu Guang, if I encounter a seeded player from a super power or first-rate power in the first round, I will eliminate him."

"Won't some old guys hold a grudge against me?"

“Hahaha.” Taoist Fu Guang laughed. “The chances of this happening are still very small. Even if Fellow Daoist Lin really did it, the elders from most forces would not hate you. They would just think you are a promising talent.”

Lin Chuan didn't care too much and continued to ask: "What about the second round?"

"The second round is called Battle Royale."

"It will be held in a small world, one small world for every thousand people. In the end, only the top ten geniuses will be able to advance to the third round of the Heaven Realm Battle."

"As for the specific rules of the battle royale, I don't know either."

"As usual, it's nothing more than hunting for flags, grabbing points, hunting puppets or shadow creatures, etc."

Taoist Fu Guang gave some explanation.

Lin Chuan didn't care too much about the competition system, but the word "shadow creature" caught his attention.

"Fellow Daoist Fu Guang, what are shadow creatures?"

Lin Chuan remembered that Lu Ya said that in the final battle of [Ancient God's Desperate Situation], black fog invaded the Nine Phases Realm of ancient times.

That piece of black fog once transformed into countless shadow creatures that attacked the Star Ring Realm, attempting to destroy the purification formation for the living beings within the realm.

Are the two the same thing?

Taoist Fu Guang was a little embarrassed. "Fellow Daoist Lin, to be honest, I don't know what a shadow creature is."

"The shadow creatures seem to exist only in the space created by the Sphere of All Living Things. Perhaps they were created by the powerful to hone their talents, just like the mechanical puppets?"

"Friend Lin, don't worry. If you encounter a shadow creature, just kill it."

"Okay." Lin Chuan thought to himself and didn't ask any more questions.

Shadow creatures are most likely related to the shadows created by the black fog.

"There's not much to say about the third round of the Heaven Realm Competition."

"The fixed mode is a one-on-one ring battle."

"Draw lots to decide the opponent based on the talent ranking sequence. This is the oldest way of competing and it is also the one that can best show one's strength."

"I understand." Lin Chuan remained calm.

Taoist Fu Guang looked at Lin Chuan, who had a calm expression, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.

In terms of paper strength, the seed geniuses of the top-ranked first-rate forces can all reach Lin Chuan's level, which is the legendary first realm.

Not to mention the seed geniuses of the super powers, as well as the dark horses or top independent cultivators of some small forces.

Why is Lin Chuan so confident?

Fighting across levels?

Although they are both super geniuses, it is too difficult, almost impossible, to fight against a higher level.

Even if it is the reincarnation of an old monster, there is a great possibility that he will be suppressed by the contemporary genius.

There are talented people in every generation, and the most outstanding figures are still to be seen today.

Those who can do this will be remembered forever.

Taoist Fu Guang wanted to not believe it, but when he felt the aura of those stunningly beautiful women not far away, he suddenly felt a little excited.

Maybe Lin Chuan can really do it?

How far can this mysterious Fellow Daoist Lin go? We will know when the Genius Battle begins.

……

Ziwei Star Territory.

Ziwei Imperial Religion.

Zixuan Mountain.

The mountains have been blocked for many years and no one has set foot on them for who knows how many years.

This is the place where Yangzu attained enlightenment.

Whether it was Yangzu’s first life or his second life, he attained enlightenment here and became the most dazzling figure of that era.

Yang Zu is the eternal Ziwei star of the Ziwei Imperial Sect, and the starlight protects countless disciples in the sect.

At the foot of Zixuan Mountain, an old woman with gray hair sat.

The old woman looked lifeless and like a dead tree, and was nearing the end of her life.

"Master, you said you would come back. Can I really wait for you?"

Ten thousand years ago, after the war in ancient times ended, Yangzu came out of seclusion and took her in as his last disciple, and gave her the name - Anci.

After teaching her to practice for a period of time, Yang Zu went into seclusion again.

Until five thousand years ago, Yangzu came out of seclusion, regardless of the injuries he suffered in the ancient war, and charged into the Buddhist holy land of Jinling Mountain with a strong attitude.

And with his tremendous power, he illuminated one of the three thousand Buddha kingdoms into the great world and integrated it into the three thousand states of the mortal world.

After that, Yang Zu went into seclusion again.

Eventually, he could no longer suppress his Dao injuries and, restricted by the heaven and earth, fell on Zixuan Mountain.

With Anci's ability, she could have become a founder of a sect, but she didn't want to. She only wanted to stay by her master's side and protect the Imperial Sect forever.

Anci's vision became increasingly blurred.

She stood up tremblingly and walked towards Zixuan Mountain with a cane.

"Master, I am going up the mountain."

An Ci will make the final prophecy based on the principles of heaven and destiny on Zixuan Mountain.

Whether Yang Zu can return is related to the future rise and fall of Ziwei Imperial Sect!

This was one of the few things she could do for the disciples of the church in the last moments of her life.

When Master was around, Anci would walk up or down the mountain, step by step, with her feet on the ground.

Yang Zu said: "Going up the mountain and going down the mountain are both a form of practice."

To this day, Anci does not dare to forget the master's teachings, and walks up the mountain step by step, but her body trembles violently like a candle in the wind.

After a long time, she finally reached the top of the mountain.

Saw Master’s residence.

There was a person standing there, wearing a purple robe, looking so familiar.

An Ci was startled and rubbed her eyes, but the person in her sight became clearer and clearer.

"Master...Master?"

In an instant, the white-haired old woman burst into tears.
