I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

In a corner of the ancient city, a disheveled Mo Wentian stared wide-eyed.

Cao Zheng's palm strike just now only sent him a thousand miles away; it couldn't have really killed him. After all, he was brought here by the Dao Lord.

At this moment, Mo Wentian had mixed feelings. Shen Ming came from the Lower Three Realms, which was even worse than his Middle Three Realms.

The two individuals are at the same cultivation level, both being at the early stage of the Divine Fire Realm.

Why!

"Aren't you willing to give in?"

Suddenly, a voice rang out in his mind without warning.

"who!"

Mo Wentian was startled, his face filled with terror.

"Don't overreact. There are quite a few Dao Lords in this city. Although they are far inferior to the ancient emperors, they may still be able to discover me."

Mo Wentian was now certain that the voice was resounding deep within his heart, and that it was his own voice.

It just sounds even colder and more sinister.

"Who are you! How did you get inside me?"

Mo Wentian forced himself to remain calm and tried to figure out what had happened.

"When you were cultivating in the Moon Palace, didn't you find a strange fragment? That is me, Tuomogudi."

"What are you going to do?" Mo Wentian was still feeling very uneasy.

"Don't be afraid, I am your great opportunity. I am still in the Moon Palace. As long as you break the seal, I will grant you a great fortune."

Mo Wentian breathed a sigh of relief; the situation wasn't too bad, and he still had a choice.

“The Moon Palace is a relic of the Heavenly Court. The senior was sealed inside, so he must not be a benevolent person. I, Mo Wentian, am devoted to the righteous path and have no chance of such a good fortune,” Mo Wentian said.

He was still clear-headed; this so-called Tuomogudi was strange in every way.

This is on the moon, where forbidden creatures roam, so we must be on guard.

"Naive boy, do you think the Dao Lord brought you into the Guanghan Palace for your own good?"

The six of you are the bait and the fishing rod, while the Dao Lords fish on the golden ocean.

Moreover, the strong are respected and the victor is king. Once you rule the world, you will be the one to write the story of right and wrong, good and bad.

"This man named Shen Ming is your nemesis. With him around, everything that rightfully belongs to you will be taken away. Are you willing to accept that?" Emperor Tuomogu continued.

"What does not belong to you will bring you harm; glory comes at a price."

Mo Wentian's words had a double meaning, and he continued to look at that annoying figure in the sky.

Shen Ming has made a name for himself, but then what?

With Luo Chen and Qin Yuehua present, Shen Ming's identity as someone from the lower realm spread throughout the ancient city without him needing to speak.

It's not surprising that cultivators from the lower realms are often seen on the moon, as if aided by divine intervention.

However, no cultivator from the lower realms has ever served as the divine son of a Dao state.

Moreover, Shen Ming was only at the early stage of the Divine Fire Realm, not the late stage.

They dare to show off like this, leaving everyone baffled.

"Has the Heaven-Mending Dao, as one of the ancient Daoist traditions, fallen to such a state?!"

Though late, they finally arrived, and someone dared to challenge them—it was the Dark God Child who had been the first to arrive in the ancient city.

Shen Ming saw that this person, like the Lightning God Child, was a completely spiritual being.

“Dark God Child, you were at a disadvantage in the previous battle of phenomena, so you have no right to say such things.”

Instead of being angry, the Heavenly Origin Dao Master smiled, knowing that his opportunity was just around the corner.

If no one offers their face up, how can you slap someone in the face?

"Ok?"

The Dark God was puzzled; when had he ever had a strange confrontation with this God of Mending the Heavens?

"The Sword God! He is the Sword God of the Sword Phenomenon!"

The divine son of the Heavenly Sword Path, Fang Yin, recognized Shen Ming and revealed the truth in a single sentence.

"what?!"

The Dark God Child reacted violently, regretting that he had stepped forward.

"That makes sense!"

The disciples of the Heaven-Mending Path breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that their lord would not act recklessly.

Shen Ming, at the early stage of the Divine Fire Realm, had reached the level of Sword God, enough to crush most of the Divine Sons!

"The Heaven-Mending Path is well hidden, secretly cultivating divine children in the lower realm. Who could have imagined that?"

"A brilliant tactic, truly a brilliant tactic."

Hearing this, the Heavenly Origin Dao Master beamed with joy; this was exactly the effect he wanted.

"Then please ask the God of Repairing Heaven to activate the Heavenly Stele."

At this moment, Jun Tian of the Celestial Court spoke, causing the ancient city to fall silent.

Jun Tian is the eighth divine son of the realm, and he intends to compete with Shen Ming.

The Heavenly Stele is not something every divine child needs to activate, nor is it a mandatory requirement for the Quasi-God Ranking.

Jun Tian had just challenged a trial path in the realm of gods, and was enjoying immense glory.

"Jun Tian, ​​they come from the lower realm, where would they find the time to challenge the Trial Road? Don't make things difficult for them," a divine child joked.

“Oh? That was my oversight. After all, the divine sons of the upper realms take pride in challenging the Path of Trials,” Jun Tian said.

Shen Ming had no idea when the Heavenly Stele would appear.

Then, he heard a message from the Lord of Tianyuan Dao.

Above the moon, there are trial paths corresponding to different realms and levels.

The Heavenly Stele will rank challengers based on their cultivation level and the difficulty of the trial path.

Because the rankings originate from the Heavenly Court, they are fair, just, and highly valuable.

As the ruler of the human realm, having completed the trials of the divine realm, he naturally ranks at the top among all the divine sons.

Wait a minute!

Shen Ming thought of the Heavenly Trial he had completed in the forbidden zone of life.

That's at least the realm of immortality!

Therefore, Shen Ming looked at the Heavenly Stele in the very center of the ancient city.

"Is it possible?!"

The others, who had been focused on him, immediately noticed this detail.

Just as the Heavenly Origin Dao Master was about to speak to help him out, he too was stunned.

He trusted Shen Ming completely and wouldn't do anything he wasn't sure of.

"It will be very difficult to surpass Jun Tian after he has completed the trials of the Divine Realm."

"Even if the God of Patching the Heavens completes a trial path, and is ranked below Jun Tian, ​​he will still be a stepping stone for others."

Some people felt it was unnecessary because Jun Tian's performance was too dazzling.

On this path, Jun Tian is the absolute protagonist; otherwise, he wouldn't have spoken up.

Sure enough, Jun Tian had a smug smile on his lips.

Yet Shen Ming still arrived in front of the Heavenly Stele, accompanied by a faint glow of the Great Dao, with mysterious runes flowing around him like a galaxy, exuding a magnificent aura.

He paid no attention to the sounds around him.

The crowd held their breath, their eyes focused, as he walked step by step toward the Heavenly Stele, gently placing his palm on its surface.

Without any preamble, the Heavenly Stele suddenly burst forth with dazzling golden light, as if thunder had roared from the heavens.

The stone tablet trembled in the light, accompanied by a powerful pressure that swept in all directions.

The markings on the surface of the Heavenly Stele rose rapidly, at a speed that was astonishing.

Shocked gasps rang out from the crowd, especially from those from the Celestial Court, whose pupils constricted, unable to conceal their horror.

Based on this trend, surpassing Juntian is a certainty.

"This is impossible!"

They couldn't accept it, including Juntian himself.

The trial path he completed was the most difficult in the realm of gods. The Celestial Court spent a huge amount of money to protect him in every way before he was able to pass.

Unless this Heaven-Mending God has completed the trials of the Longevity Realm!

But if that were the case, Jun Tian would become a clown who brought shame upon himself!
