Amid the silence—
After mourning for **3 breaths**, everyone rose in unison.
Ru Yan Wuji swept her gaze across the **6,000 disciples** from the **2 sects and 1 palace** below, her expression turning solemn.
“Before opening the ‘Space-Time Tunnel’ to the Eternal Immortal Realm…”
“All of you… remember carefully what I am about to say!”
“Within the Eternal Realm, the trial zone covered by a grand formation… spans **10,000,000 li**!”
“The duration of the trial is **1 full year**!”
“After **1 year**, the Space-Time Tunnel will open above ‘Time Immortal Mountain,’ located **100,000 li north** of the entrance to the God Burial Abyss!”
“It will remain open for only **1 hour**!”
“All of you must return within that **1 hour**!”
“Otherwise—once the tunnel closes, the grand formation protecting the trial zone will also dissipate!”
“And when that happens… Level **3**, **4**, or even Level **5** beasts will run rampant across the entire realm!”
“If you remain inside… you will die without a doubt!”
“Do you understand?!”
All **6,000 disciples** responded in unison:
“We understand!”
“Good!” Ru Yan Wuji said loudly.
“Next, I will open the Space-Time Tunnel and randomly transport all of you into the Eternal Realm!”
“During the teleportation process—do not let any part of your body touch the ‘spatial walls’ of the tunnel!”
“Otherwise… you will be crushed to death by the spatial turbulence!”
She paused briefly, then gave one final warning:
“Lastly… I will leave you with one piece of advice!”
“Within the God Burial Abyss… although there are indeed countless treasures…”
“In the past **50,000 years**…”
“More than **20,000,000 disciples** from the **3 ancient sects** have entered!”
“When you go treasure hunting…”
“Know your limits!”
“If you cannot proceed… retreat immediately!”
“Do not throw away your lives… for the sake of treasure!”
As her words ended—
Ru Yan Wuji’s lips moved silently, chanting an incantation.
Her wrinkled hands slowly formed seals before her chest.
Suddenly—
Above the jade tower, a **sphere of spiritual energy** with a diameter of **3 zhang** appeared out of thin air!
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
The **Qiankun Ring** on her finger flashed rapidly.
In an instant—
**36 high-grade spirit stones** shot into the sphere!
They hovered calmly within it.
“Go!”
Ru Yan Wuji waved her sleeve!
Immediately—
The sphere split into **36 beams of light**!
Each beam carried **1 high-grade spirit stone**—
Shooting through the air!
They arced gracefully,
Heading straight toward the **36 Immortal Mountains** surrounding the sacred ground!
As all **36 beams** pierced into the mountain peaks—
Everything fell silent once more.
“The Space-Time Tunnel… open!”
“RUMBLE!!”
“RUMBLE!!”
Thunderous roars shook the heavens and the earth!
The **36 Immortal Mountains** trembled violently!
From each peak—
Massive beams of light, hundreds of zhang thick, shot into the sky!
All **36 beams** converged—
Curving beautifully toward one another!
Finally—
They merged above the circular platform at the center of the sacred ground!
In an instant—
Violent winds howled!
And a **pitch-black Space-Time Tunnel** with a diameter of **100 zhang** appeared in the sky!
From within the tunnel—
An immense radiance poured down!
Enveloping the entire circular platform!
“The Space-Time Tunnel is open!”
“Trial participants from the **2 sects and 1 palace**—step onto the platform and prepare for teleportation!”
The moment Ru Yan Wuji finished speaking—
**2,000 elite inner disciples** of the Eternal Immortal Sect
Leapt onto the platform at once!
Their bodies rose uncontrollably—
Before being instantly sucked into the Space-Time Tunnel!
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
The **3,000 disciples** of the Divine Soul Immortal Palace followed closely behind, leaping onto the platform before being sucked into the Space-Time Tunnel!
“Mengyi! Shiyao! Ziyan! Be careful—meet at the rendezvous point!”
Leaving behind only those words—
Tan Yun was the first to leap onto the platform!
He instantly felt a binding force pulling his body into the tunnel!
Right after him—
The remaining **999 disciples** of the Huangfu Sacred Sect rushed in one after another!
In no time—
Everyone had disappeared into the tunnel completely!
Soon after—
The Space-Time Tunnel slowly closed… and vanished into the sky.
On Jade Tower **1**—
Ru Yan Wuji looked at Tantai Xuanzhong and chuckled softly.
“Heh heh heh… Sect Master Tantai, I’m starting to worry that after **1 year**, not a single one of your **1,000 disciples** will return alive!”
On Jade Tower **2**—
Zhuge Yu added with a sigh:
“That’s right… I’m worried as well.”
“The disciples of the Huangfu Sacred Sect… are far too weak.”
“Sending them into the Eternal Immortal Trial… is no different from sending them to their deaths.”
Hearing this—
Tantai Xuanzhong replied calmly:
“What happens after **1 year**… who can say for sure?”
A faint smile appeared on his lips, his eyes cold.
“I just hope… that after **1 year**, you’ll still be able to laugh like you are now.”
…
Meanwhile—
Tan Yun was moving through the pitch-black Space-Time Tunnel!
At an incredible speed—
It made him extremely dizzy, waves of disorientation crashing over his mind!
After a full **half hour**—
The dizziness suddenly disappeared!
His feet landed firmly on solid ground!
He immediately knew—
He had arrived in the **Eternal Immortal Realm**!
“Buzz!”
“Whoosh!”
But before Tan Yun could even survey his surroundings—
The sharp sound of something slicing through the air came from behind!
He instantly dodged!
“Slash!”
A streak of black light grazed past his cheek—
Cutting off a strand of his hair before embedding itself into a massive ancient tree ahead!
“Thud!”
A pitch-black arrow sank deep into the trunk!
The bark around it began turning black… at a visible speed!
Poison!
A deadly poison!
A killing intent flashed in Tan Yun’s eyes!
He turned around—
And saw a female disciple of the Divine Soul Immortal Palace in white robes, standing **200 zhang** away.
Her left hand held a bow—
Her right hand pulled the string taut, with **3 poisoned arrows** ready to fire!
“Tan Yun… if you surrender, I’ll grant you a painless death!”
She said coldly.
“Don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
“Blame yourself… for humiliating my Palace Master and ruining the reputation of the Divine Soul Immortal Palace during the ‘Four Arts Competition’!”
Hearing this—
Tan Yun simply sneered, saying nothing.
He stepped forward slowly… one step at a time.
“Die!”
The woman shouted!
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
All **3 arrows** shot out simultaneously—
Piercing through Tan Yun’s throat and both sides of his chest!
“Hmph! I heard you defeated the Saintess—I thought you’d be impressive!”
“In the end… you died from just **3 arrows**!”
“Looks like Nangong Yuqin isn’t that strong either…”
However—
Her mocking voice suddenly stopped!
Her expression turned into one of terror!
Because—
Even though the arrows had pierced through Tan Yun’s throat and chest—
Not a single drop of blood flowed out!
And in the next instant—
Tan Yun’s figure vanished from her sight!
“Buzz!”
The space behind her trembled!
The woman was horrified and immediately leapt into the air, summoning her flying sword to escape!
“Get down!”
A thunderous shout exploded!
Just as she had risen **1 chi** off the ground—
Tan Yun appeared behind her!
His hand grabbed her ankle—
And yanked her down violently!
“Bang!”
Her body slammed heavily onto the ground!
“Whoosh!”
Tan Yun’s figure flickered—
In an instant, his right foot pressed down on her throat!
“Please… don’t kill me…”
The woman begged, tears welling up in her eyes.
Tan Yun’s expression was cold and emotionless.
“If it were you… would you spare me?”
“Crack!”
The sound of bones shattering rang out clearly!
Before she could even react—
Tan Yun crushed her throat completely under his foot… without the slightest mercy!
