The attack of the eighth-level Ming Sheng seemed to have triggered the final frenzy of the Radiance Supremacy Sect, but in just a few seconds, several Ming Sheng-level powerhouses flew out of the crowd, each appearing calm and unafraid of death.

At the same time, several selectors suddenly took action, attacking their surrounding companions.

With screams, many people showed expressions of horror or disbelief. After so many attacks, they thought the members of the Radiance Supremacy Sect among the selectors had been eliminated, but they didn't expect there to still be fish that escaped the net.

Those people were quickly controlled or resolved by the Sacred Sect, but the seeds of fear and distrust planted by those people grew, and the selectors distanced themselves one by one without a trace.

Seeing this scene, the Ming God-level powerhouses hidden in the shadows frowned. In the crowd, Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanhui said simultaneously, "Something's wrong."

As those words fell, Ji Jiayu suddenly wondered again, "What did I do wrong?"

"What's wrong with you?" He turned to look at Nie Lanxun. "Those people's condition," Nie Lanxi said, "Those voters don't look like members of the Light Supremacy Sect."

"I think so too," Ji Jiayu said. He felt this way, but he couldn't pinpoint why, and this feeling made him feel very strange.

"I have a guess." Nie Lanxi looked at Ji Jiayu and was silent for a few seconds before saying.

"Perhaps it has something to do with demons?"

"Hmm." Nie Lanxi nodded.

Then Ji Jiayu finally knew that something was wrong. It seemed that after leaving the Sheng Yao Realm, he had become more sensitive to matters related to the demon race, intuitively sensitive.

Could this be a side effect of using the Tiger Shadow Sacred Jewel?

The actions of the Ming Sheng-level powerhouses in the crowd and the sudden attacks from several voters made the Ming Sheng and Ming Shen guards guarding the voters even more vigilant. A powerful divine might enveloped the entire Sacred Square, monitoring every detail from the sky to the ground.

On the other hand, more and more Sheng Yao Si staff had joined the testing ranks. Because the Sacred Light World was so special this time, many of the selectors had reached the minimum standard for holding the Sacred Light Orb, and they were all going to the Sacred Gem to undertake a potentially life-changing endeavor.

Among the many selectors, Su Mengmeng was undoubtedly the one with the greatest potential, and also the one most protected.

The test lasted over four hours, and then most of the selectors were excluded.

This was also expected; their compatibility was indeed quite far apart. What surprised many staff members was that Ye Zihang and Ding Lu, who had only recently entered Camp No. 1, had already reached the critical point in their compatibility and were eligible to try.

The two unexpected selectors made the Shengyao Division staff think of Ji Jiayu; he was probably the most likely person to become the person in charge besides Su Mengmeng.

What a pity.

However, fortunately, Su Mengmeng was unaffected.

In the end, most of the selectors left the Sacred Square under the protection of the guards, and the remaining twenty-seven selectors, led by the Shengyao Division staff, entered the sacred hall in droves.

They were about to head to the Forbidden Land.

At this moment, in the vast and empty Divine Forbidden Land, four Ming God-level powerhouses stood solemnly in the east, south, west, and north. In addition, there were ten ninth-level Ming Saints standing at various key points.

Not long after, under Wang Yinlan's leadership, twenty-seven electors arrived at this empty forbidden land.

Wang Yinlan, as the manager of the main department of Camp No. 1, had unquestionable loyalty, and among the previous guards, she was the only one to step into the forbidden land.

After arriving at the forbidden land, Wang Yinlan walked towards the Ming God in the west.

The Forbidden Land follows a rotational system, and the guardian gods are alternated, each with the titles East, South, West, and North. However, only during special periods will the Forbidden Land have four Myojin gods present simultaneously, as it is now.

Among the four Ming gods, Xi Ming Shen is the leader, and after Wang Yinlan stepped forward to negotiate with him, she began arranging for the selectors from Camp No. 1 to make a final attempt.

Although Su Mengmeng was the most likely candidate, it wasn't she who went to try, but a woman named Mo Yao, who boasted an astonishing 93% compatibility with the Sacred Jade Pearl.

It's worth noting that in recent decades, there have only been a handful of selectors with a 93% compatibility, and this Mo Yao wasn't the most compatible one on the scene.

In fact, except for Wang Yinlan, even the Ming gods present didn't know the specific compatibility of the twenty-seven selectors. Just as Mo Yao was about to test whether she could seize the Sacred Pearl, Wang Yinlan finally revealed the truth in a low voice, telling her the origins of the Chosen Plan and the meaning of the gray, stone-like beads suspended in the air in the center of the Forbidden Land.

Wang Yinlan didn't deliberately conceal her voice; in fact, she also deliberately told the other Chosen Planners present.

When everyone heard the origins of the Sacred Radiant Pearl and the Seven Divine Beads, they were all shocked and immediately became even more nervous. They were already extremely nervous. They had been nervous when they entered the Forbidden Land, and they had been nervous when they saw the four Ming Immortals. After listening to Wang Yinlan's introduction, they were even more nervous.

There was no doubt that this might be a major event that would change their lives. No one could ignore it. They were like this, why weren't Ming Sheng and Ming Shen present? Some of them were from the Sacred Yao Division, some from other departments of the Sacred Sect, all of whom had invested countless hours and hours into the Chosen Plan, and now it was finally the final moment. If they failed, their efforts over the past few decades would—and once they succeeded, the future of the entire Guangming Clan would change.

After a while, with tension from the depths of her soul and full of anticipation, Mo Yao walked towards the extremely gray sacred pearl suspended in the air.

After standing in front of the Sacred Pearl, Mo Yao looked at it, took a deep breath, and then placed her hand on it.

In the Forbidden Land, when the Sacred Pearl ceremony began, the square outside the Sacred Hall was already crowded with people, and many members of the Radiance Clan held flags and chanted slogans, their voices deafening.

It must be said that although the Radiance Supremacy Sect advocated "light supremacy" and disdained humanity, the actual upper management of the Radiance Supremacy Sect never revealed the true story of the Selector Plan, because the Radiance Supremacy Sect was loyal to the Holy Kingdom and Holy Chenghai. They established the sect and sought trouble for humanity. However, once the true story of the Selector Plan was revealed, it would attract demons, and that would be a huge problem.

Overall, the Radiance Supremacy Sect still had its bottom line.

However, Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanhu felt something was increasingly amiss.

One second, Ji Jiayu was still urging Nie Lanxi, saying they had to go to the Sheng Yao Si people. If they missed the ceremony to take over the Sacred Yao Pearl, it would be bad. And the next second, they both sensed an extra odor in the crowd that made them feel extremely disgusted.

It was the smell of demons.

This odor appeared very suddenly, catching them both off guard. They looked at each other, feeling that something was about to happen.

In this chaos caused by the Radiant Supremacy Sect, the demons were starting to fish in troubled waters. What were they planning to do?

This wasn't Ji Jiayu's first time encountering demons, but he was still a little nervous.

At this moment, he increasingly felt that Nie Lanxi's choice was wise, and the chaos caused by the last Sacred Pearl Ceremony had only just begun.

"We must not allow these humans to enter the Sacred Sect, and we must not allow them to continue polluting our pure bloodline!"

"Drive them out!"

"Over the years, we have done our best, they have made progress, and this time we must not retreat again!"

"Expel humanity! Expel humanity!"

Amidst the shouts, the stench that Nie Lanxi and Ji Jiayu found disgusting grew stronger, almost overwhelming the heads of many Guangming people.

At first, these Guangming people were able to restrain themselves somewhat, but soon they became increasingly out of control, and even the city guards maintaining order were unable to stop them. Because there were so many people out of control, the city guards didn't dare act rashly, and if they exerted too much force, it could cause a major accident.

However, the fact that there were no accidents today wasn't related to their restraint.

As the citizens' actions became increasingly violent, some of the city guards began to lose control.

It was merely an accident: a citizen fell, and word of "city guards are killing people" spread, and then the riot broke out and continued to expand.

Ji Jiayu watched this scene unfold in the crowd and was completely dumbfounded. Although he had realized that something bad might happen, he never expected things to develop so quickly and so unexpectedly. Amidst the fierce conflict, the nauseating smell became stronger again, so strong that it made him feel slightly dizzy.

Although the Holy Square was constantly in turmoil, and the Holy Church was also affected, the forbidden grounds beneath the Holy Church were unaffected in the slightest.

The second Mo Yao's hand touched the Holy Bead, light erupted from the Holy Bead, and all the Ming and Mingsheng gods present couldn't help but widen their eyes.

The light grew brighter and brighter, and the originally dim Holy Light Pearl transformed into a small fireball. At this moment, a transparent ripple swept across the Forbidden Ground in an instant. A garden! A Myojin-level field!

Wang Yinlan looked west in disbelief. It was the West Ming God, the main Ming God who had guarded the Holy Pearl for nearly ten years! How could there be a rebellion?!
