The Holy City, the Forbidden City.
The underground core, also known as the Forbidden Land, is a place specifically opened to preserve the Sacred Pearl. At this moment, this small, open area was filled with a liquid-like divine power. When the Ming gods and Ming saints in the sacred hall arrived, this liquid divine power happened to begin contracting and condensing rapidly.
They had no intention of stopping it, and certainly no ability to do so, because the Sacred Light Pearl, one of the Seven Divine Beads, possessed a power beyond their imagination.
Thus, under their gaze, the majestic divine power rapidly condensed into a golden bubble. Within the golden bubble, the clear air and turbid air were separated, and a world existed between them.
Looking at the bubble, and then at the sacred pearl, which had faded in gold and turned gray, the Ming gods and saints present were speechless for a long time.
After a while, the golden bubble completely stabilized, and after conceiving and forming the world within it, it penetrated the wall with a whoosh, disappearing without a trace.
"..."
"Why is that?"
Ming Sheng was all speechless.
In the past, every time the Holy Radiance Orb created the Holy Light World, the amount of divine power consumed remained constant, but this time, it wasn't. It had consumed enough divine power to create ten Holy Light Worlds, seemingly creating an even larger Holy Light World.
Would this world be any different? Ming Sheng didn't know that they were only concerned about one thing now: what had happened to the holy light orb that had turned gray.
A Myojin stepped forward to pick it up and hold it in his hand. Whether he injected divine power or used his divine consciousness to influence it, it didn't react at all, and it seemed completely useless.
"Alas..." Ming Sheng sighed deeply.
"It seems this is the last chance. This time the Holy Light World opens, if it can't elect its leader, it won't be worth it."
"Without it, how will the next hundred-year plan begin? The threat of the demons is growing!"
"Let's send someone to find the opening location of this Holy Light World first. Also, send out all the voters; you can't control so much for now."
"Why did you suddenly get to this point..."
All the Ming gods couldn't figure it out. The Holy Light Pearl could clearly last a long time, but why were they creating the Sacred Light World so frequently recently?
It seemed like it all started when Ji Jiayu saw the Guardian. Were Ji Jiayu and the Guardian truly the key to breaking the game? Ming Shen and Ming Sheng didn't know for now, but they had hope.
Therefore, as the supervisor of Camp No. 1, Wang Yinlan was ordered to go to the Spirit Bridge to summon Ji Jiayu.
Wang Yinlan was in a heavy mood on the way there.
She was the supervisor of Camp One and had been involved in almost every step of the selection program for decades. She knew how important the Holy Light Orb was, how crucial its holder was, and how difficult it was to achieve a high compatibility rate in the Sacred Light World.
Not to mention that Ji Jiayu currently only had an initial compatibility of one percent or even zero percent. Even if his initial compatibility reached sixty percent, he would never be able to reach eighty percent or even ninety percent compatibility by entering the Sacred Light World once. This was an iron law.
However, judging from the changes in the last Sacred Luminous World, he wasn't completely without a chance. Who knew what would happen there?
But...
"Alas..." Wang Yinlan sighed.
It had only been a month and a half now, and Ji Jiayu's mental strength was still half a month away from fully recovering.
Ji Jiayu, whose spiritual power was damaged and whose strength was only a second-level Bright Spirit, could he really make a difference in this last Sacred Luminous World? Honestly, Wang Yinlan felt that the chances were very slim, but no matter how slim the chances, she had to wake him up and give it a try.
Speaking of which, there was only one reason—this was the last chance!
Wang Yinlan was a peak ninth-level Ming Sheng, and her flying speed was beyond compare to that of the Holy Pegasus and Lu Shan. In just three hours, she rushed from the Holy City to the entrance of the Spiritual Bridge.
As she approached the tall stone gate, the loud and distant voice slowly rang out. After Wang Yinlan announced her name, she flew towards the tall stone gate.
As soon as she flew to the stone gate, Wang Yinlan was stunned.
"Where is the Spiritual Bridge?"
Normally, everyone who entered the stone gate would be teleported to the vicinity of the Spiritual Bridge, but what about the Spiritual Bridge?
"..."
Wang Yinlan was silent for a few seconds, sensing something was wrong. So she took off into the air and flew to a high place to look down, only to see a vast river roaring ahead.
If only on the surface, there seemed to be nothing wrong with this vast river. But who was Wang Yinlan? A peak ninth-level Ming Sheng, a powerhouse who could become a god in just one step, coming into contact with the existence of laws. She could clearly see that the divine power in this rushing golden sacred river was actually much less.
"How could there be less?"
After Wang Yinlan thought about it, she allowed the divine power in her body to flow into her eyes. The world in her eyes suddenly changed. She saw that above the river, there was a pure white area devoid of divine power. The area stretched into the distance, and in terms of size, it resembled a human figure.
Wang Yinlan was confused at first, but then she began to think about it. Thinking about it, she couldn't help but be overjoyed and immediately flew toward the white area.
It didn't take long for Wang Yinlan to see a figure floating and sinking from the golden sacred river. She took a closer look, and it was indeed Ji Jiayu.
At this moment, Ji Jiayu had just finished practicing his divine ray accuracy and was enriching his body by absorbing the golden light particles.
Seeing this scene, Wang Yinlan was shocked. She immediately followed suit, not hesitating to urge her mental power to explore. She soon came to a shocking conclusion: Ji Jiayu's mental power had not only fully recovered, but had also risen to a small peak. Furthermore, his cultivation had also soared from the second rank to the peak of the third rank. And it wasn't an ordinary peak of the third rank; his divine power was more than ten times purer than that of an ordinary peak of the third rank.
The sheer amount of divine power Ji Jiayu had accumulated was even more astonishing.
"What happened while he was here?" Wang Yinlan muttered.
Although she was puzzled, she didn't dwell on it for too long because she didn't have time. No matter what state Ji Jiayu was in, she had to wake him up.
"Sigh!" Wang Yinlan sped up and rushed towards Ji Jiayu.
Hearing the sound of the wind, Ji Jiayu suddenly opened his eyes and saw Wang Yinlan nearby. A hint of joy appeared on his face.
He breathed a sigh of relief; she had finally arrived!
Although he had been practicing happily and hadn't been hungry all this time, being in this prison-like place for too long would always leave him with wandering thoughts. But that was all, overall, he was still very happy.
His strength was improving too quickly!
Sensing Ji Jiayu's gaze, Wang Yinlan said without waiting for him to speak, "I'm sorry, it was my fault this time that you were alone for so long."
Ji Jiayu said, "Wang Zhuji, it's okay. I feel like I'm a blessing in disguise."
When Wang Yinlan heard this, she was very curious about his experiences during this time, but she still restrained herself and didn't ask. Instead, she said, "Come with me first. Let's talk on the way."
Ji Jiayu saw that she was a little anxious, was stunned for a moment, and then nodded, "Okay."
As soon as those words fell, Wang Yinlan waved her right hand, and divine power that permeated the air suddenly converged behind Ji Jiayu, forming a pair of enormous wings of light. The wings of light were not controlled by Ji Jiayu. After flapping, they flew into the distance with Ji Jiayu and Wang Yinlan at astonishing speed.
Not long after, a huge stone gate appeared in the air, and the two of them immediately rushed through.
Just as he was about to rush out of the stone gate, Ji Jiayu suddenly looked back at the sacred river below. For some reason, in that moment, he felt a little excited.
It wasn't his own emotions.
Was it his? Ji Jiayu recalled his previous dream, the dream of the Moon God.
Only then did he think of the Moon God, and a voice rang in his heart: "Please protect my home on my behalf."
At the same time, he passed through the stone gate and returned to the normal world.
Looking back at the tall stone gate, even though she knew the other party might not have heard her, she still shouted loudly, "Thank you for your help. I'll do my best."
Wang Yinlan, who was beside her, heard the shout and glanced at her, but didn't immediately ask.
"Boom!"
Her wings of light flapped, and the two of them transformed into light and shadow, disappearing into the sky in an instant.
"Tell me, what happened to you in the Land of the Fallen Moon?" Wang Yinlan's voice pierced the wind, echoing in Ji Jiayu's ears.
"I had two dreams. After waking up, my mental strength recovered. Then, I couldn't wait for you, so I started cultivating and figuring out how to use the divine power in my body." Ji Jiayu said happily, "I really found one."
Wang Yinlan said, "That's it? No other anomalies?"
"No." Ji Jiayu was a little stunned. "Speaking of which, how long has it been now?" I feel like I've been in it for a long time."
"Forty-six days," Wang Yinlan said.
"Didn't you say I'd sleep for two months?" Ji Jiayu asked.
"Yes, I thought so at first," Wang Yinlan said.
Ji Jiayu was silent for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "Then why did you suddenly come to me? Is something wrong?"
"That's right." Wang Yinlan was a little surprised by Ji Jiayu's reaction.
"Then you tell me, I'll listen," Ji Jiayu said.
"The final Holy Shine World has opened. This is your last chance and our last chance," Wang Yinlan said.
"The last? "Is it so sudden?" Ji Jiayu said, "Didn't you say...?"
"There's too much to explain to you, let's talk about it one by one," Wang Yinlan said.
"Okay."
"You start first, starting with those two dreams."
By the time Wang Yinlan rushed back with Ji Jiayu, Shengyao Sect had already found the final landing spot for Shengyao World, located northwest of the Holy Kingdom, within Huangxiang City, under the jurisdiction of Leiya Province.
The northern area of Huangxiang City was a lush rainforest, rich in war elephants called Huangxiang, hence the name Huangxiang City.
At this moment, the entire vast rainforest was enveloped in a golden bubble, and everyone who saw the golden bubble from a distance was amazed, but they could only admire it. When they took a closer look at the golden bubble, they discovered that the entire golden bubble was actually stationed with guardian knights of the Holy Sect, and it was a two-kilometer-long outpost with a hundred-kilometer-long isolation belt.
This made people even more curious: what exactly was this golden bubble? What was inside it? This was also the question in the minds of many voters.
