Chapter 1,165: The Beginning is Near
t loud, the black-robed elder would clearly not believe him.Because he uttered his mother's name from the desert's mouth, a name that instantly caused a slight ripple on the dark-clothed elder's placi...Looking out the window at the sky that was gradually brightening, Lei Ji Tianzhu said to himself, “It seems that something major is bound to happen among these thousands of Dao Realms!”
Otherwise, the Dao Venerable who has been out of the world for many years would not have arranged for nine people to enter the Zhengdao Leihai and impact their Dao bodies!
"No matter what happens, I only hope that my Leiji Tian will not be affected and can continue to exist!"
……
If the Dao Lei Realm is the heart of Lei Ji Tian, then Lei Yuan Shan is the heart of the Dao Lei Realm.
And Mount Leiyuan, is also a magical place because it is divided into two sections!
The lower half of the mountain is only a thousand feet high, with a flat summit and a large expanse of land, forming a natural plaza.
Above it, there was always a layer of golden mist a hundred zhang thick.
The clouds and mist are not actually golden. They appear so because there are countless golden thunderbolts hidden within them, as if they have been gilded.
And above this hundred-zhang cloud and mist, is the upper half of Leiyuan Mountain, soaring high into the heavens!
Looking from afar, it seems as if someone used a hundred-zhang cloud mist as a sword to split Mount Leyuan in two.
The Lord of Thunder resides in the upper half of Leiyuan Mountain, while the battleground for the annual Righteous Path Leihai Qualification War is held on the plaza in the lower half.
Therefore, as soon as dawn broke, a large number of cultivators arrived near Leiyuan Mountain, guided by their junior disciples through one teleportation array after another.
Although the Summit Plaza is massive in size, it can only accommodate a limited number of people.
More importantly, to prevent confusion, in addition to the cultivators who participated in the qualifying rounds, anyone else who wanted to ascend this Lei Yuan Mountain had to obtain the consent of the Tian Lord Lei Ji.
This means that all those who are truly able to personally experience and witness the qualifying battle will naturally be of high status and extraordinary origins.
Although most people are unable to reach Mount Lei Yuan, the entire qualifying process will be displayed in various locations throughout the Righteous Path's Thunder Realm by specialized artifacts.
There were 5,000 makeshift seats set up in each of the four directions of the square.
This also means that only 20,000 people can enter here in total, including nearly 5,000 cultivators who will be participating in the qualifying round.
Many cultivators who had already ascended Mount Leiyuan began to enter the rows of temporary seats built around the square, in an order from the outside inwards.
Obviously, the closer the seat is to the front, the more noble the status and the stronger the ability.
However, those truly noble and powerful figures would never appear on this plaza. Their place was in the upper half of Leiyuan Mountain, personally accompanied by the Lord Lei Ji Tian himself.
Soon, all the chairs in the three directions of south, northwest, and north were filled. Then, disciples from the Zhengdao Lei realm led nearly five thousand cultivators who were about to participate in the qualification battle onto the square.
Naturally, the arrival of these five thousand cultivators immediately sparked cheers from the crowd.
Especially those within the sect or family with disciples or relatives will spare no effort to cheer them on during this opportunity.
Although most of them knew their disciples' families were impossible to enter the Righteous Path Thunder Sea, being able to ascend Lei Yuan Mountain and reach this square was already a great honor.
What truly captures everyone's attention are those who have made a name for themselves in the elimination rounds.
For example, Wei Heng, Lei Bu Fan, and now the most famous Meng Guan!
When they saw Meng Guan's face still bearing his trademark arrogance and looking around nonchalantly, they couldn't believe it. Such an unpleasant fellow could be so powerful that he had frightened Yang Chong to the point of madness with nothing but his aura.
As Ginger Cloud and the others gradually sat down, everyone's mood also became excited because the qualifying match was about to begin!
At the same time, at the top of the upper half of Leiyuan Mountain, there was a small palace.
Within the main hall, there were six people, five sitting and one standing.
Of the six people, besides Lei Ji Tianzhu who sat in the center, and the old man with a walrus mustache sitting at his right hand, as well as the old man with a cane standing behind him, the other three people were surrounded by a faint light, making it impossible to see their true appearance.
Of course, the old man with a bushy mustache is Earth Sprite Clan ancestor Di Xinghe, and standing behind him is Di Lingzi.
Even though the earthling is not low in status within the goblin clan, in this situation, the fact that he can stand is already a great fortune. He doesn't even have the qualifications to sit down.
Even if his own ancestors were sitting there, he wouldn't even dare to breathe.
Because including Lei Ji Tianzhu and the other three, although they did not intentionally radiate their respective auras, he could still feel a suffocating pressure.
It's no surprise that the weakest of these four individuals should be at least at the Heavenly Human Five Tribulations Realm!
Di Xinghe, however, seemed completely indifferent. His mung bean-sized eyes darted back and forth between the other three people, saying, "I say, you're only here to observe, so why don't you even dare to show your faces"
Could it be that they've all done something wrong
Although Di Xinghe's tone was extremely rude, the three of them did not show any signs of anger.
It's not that Di Xinghe's strength surpasses theirs, but rather because of Di Xinghe's identity!
They are not afraid of a single celestial river, but if they truly offend the Celestial River, it would be equivalent to angering all the ancient demon clans!
They know better than anyone the terror and horror of the ancient demon clan!
Hearing the words of the Starry River, Lei Ji Tianzhu couldn't help but feel a surge of annoyance in his heart.
Although he had received news beforehand and knew that the Star River would come, he didn't expect the other party to openly reveal their identity. He couldn't refuse, so he could only arrange for him to be here.
And the news he received from Lei Jiutian's ancient demon clan was not just limited to Di Xinghe. Now, other demon clans have yet to appear, and he himself couldn't know where they were.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the Lightning Realm now has strict defenses and requires tokens for entry. For ancient demon clan ancestors with their level of power, obtaining a token would be incredibly easy.
Seeing that no one paid him any attention, Di Xinghe continued, "I bet there's someone here I know. Come on, let me see your true faces! Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else!"
"Lord Lei, you really have to laugh," said the Heavenly Master. "My friend, please don't make things difficult for me. These three are all old friends of mine. Due to some special circumstances, they cannot reveal their identities. I hope you understand!"
"Special reason!" Xinghe's eyes twinkled, wanting to speak further, but Lei Jiutian hastily raised a hand and pointed downwards. "Fellow Daoist, the qualifying battle is about to begin. Let's focus on watching it!"
As expected, with the words of the Supreme Lord Lei Ji Tian falling, four figures appeared out of thin air above the square!
Seeing these two people, the noisy crowd instantly fell silent.
These two people, the one on the left is a handsome young man in golden robes. His face is as cold as frost, and his whole body exudes a chilling coldness!
As for this person, Ginger Cloud is no stranger at all. He is Lei Hao, the one who possesses a natural Thunder Body!
And the man on the right was a middle-aged man in a silver robe. Although Jiang Yun didn't know him, someone nearby had already whispered his background.
Leiji Tianzhu's eldest disciple, Shen Qingyu, is also the only disciple from outside the clan under Leiji Tianzhu!
He was not a direct descendant of Lei Ji Tianzhu, yet he became Lei Ji Tianzhu's eldest disciple. This shows that his talent and ability were extraordinary.
Shen Qingyu swept his gaze around the room, his face impassive. “Everyone,” he said, “the qualification battle is about to begin!”
