Chapter 250 The Apocalypse Reappears

Indeed, for these Immortal Emperors, they were almost invincible existences in their own worlds, and they were also part of the Great Dao. Mutual slaughter among Immortal Emperors did not benefit their worlds.

Most Immortal Emperors either left their planets to explore the universe, or broke through dimensional barriers to fight the Sky-Devouring Clan in other dimensions.

Of course, some Immortal Emperors, bored out of their minds, threw themselves into reincarnation and experienced the path of cultivation from scratch again.

The Sky-Devouring Clan were the eternal enemies of the human race, and in this endless realm of immortal cultivation, it was always humans fighting against the Sky-Devouring Clan.

Human Immortal Emperors did not possess the ability to break through dimensional barriers, so even if they left their own dimensions, they could not travel very far.

Generally speaking, finding a battlefield and intervening in the fight could consume hundreds of years.

The battles between Immortal Emperors were unlike those of cultivators in other realms, where life and death could be decided quickly.

Regarding the situation Chu Yang mentioned, although Emperor Qing and Emperor Creation felt the possibility of rescue was slim, they could still try.

They were old acquaintances in the [Ascension Tower], and it was good to meet occasionally.

Figures like Emperor Qing, having experienced so much, would not have significant emotional fluctuations due to the impending destruction of a world.

However, if they could save them, it was still worth a try.

...

Following this, Chu Yang released the trial secret realm [Doomsday Reenactment].

This was a secret realm that could loop infinitely, refreshing automatically every seven days, with the dungeon appearing at the end of the seventh day.

And why was it called Doomsday Reenactment?

Because the battles that refreshed here were all battles that humanity had lost.

This allowed people to experience the despair that those who had once lost to the Sky-Devouring Clan had endured.

Of course, since there was no danger to life, people might consider this secret realm more as a game, and they would not feel as deeply as Wang Teng.

Chu Yang pondered that sometimes, positive guidance was needed to motivate everyone.

So, everyone saw Xiong Miao Company, in conjunction with the Xia Nation's official authorities, issue a new announcement.

"Registration for the new secret realm trial [Doomsday Reenactment] is now open. The first phase is limited to ten thousand participants, first come, first served. The top ten will receive custom rewards from Brother Xian."

"[Doomsday Reenactment] Introduction: Upon entering, everyone will be placed in a battlefield fighting against the Sky-Devouring Clan. Here, you must do your best to kill as many Sky-Devouring Clan members as possible. The suffering you endure inside is real, but upon 'death,' you will be eliminated and returned, not truly dying. This secret realm is a long-term, automatically refreshing secret realm, refreshing every seven days."

This was completely equivalent to a game dungeon, and many people were extremely enthusiastic about something without life danger.

Moreover, the first batch of spots numbered ten thousand, a scale of trial participants never seen before.

As the troops personally trained by the Sea Dragon King, the cultivator armies of various countries were naturally ready.

The Sea Dragon King said sternly, "Make sure you treat this trial secret realm as a real battlefield. This is very likely the scenario you will face in the future. It can greatly help you accumulate experience. I hope all these spots are taken by you. I don't need to tell you how generous Brother Xian's rewards are, do I?"

For a moment, everyone's eyes lit up; no one was indifferent to Chu Yang's rewards.

Immortal artifacts, immortal techniques, immortal pills... anyway, as long as it was from Brother Xian, he was never stingy.

The Sea Dragon King continued, "But I must emphasize to you that you must not fight amongst yourselves on the battlefield! You cultivate battle formations, you are a whole. If even one person is missing, it's hard to form a complete array. If I find anyone disrupting unity, I will settle with you properly after you come out!"

Everyone's scalp tingled. Despite the Sea Dragon King appearing as a kind old man, his punishments were truly enough to make one wish they were dead.

Because the Sea Dragon King knew that humanity's time in this world was running out, and to possess sufficient strength in such a short period, drastic measures were necessary.

This announcement also gave ordinary cultivators outside the cultivator armies a chance to rise. Who could predict what would happen on the battlefield? Even if your strength was significantly greater, you could still be the first to fall.

And most importantly, the terrifying geniuses like Li Qingyun were not present, so there was no need to worry about the top ten being monopolized.

In all previous trial secret realms, as long as those few on the cultivation rankings were present, they didn't even bother to compete; even if they didn't compete, they would be snatched away.

Many people felt their opportunity had arrived!

"Haha! The top ten on the cultivation rankings are not here, so isn't the first place within easy reach?"

"What are you laughing at? This first place is mine!"

"Xia Nation people, your good days are over! This time, the cultivators of our Sun Never Sets Empire will no longer be low-key!"

"Don't be ridiculous. Our Maple Leaf Nation cultivators were the earliest to cultivate immortal arts outside of Xia Nation. We're taking these top ten spots!"

"This is absurd. It seems you've forgotten about the cultivators of our Ah San Nation. Just you wait, the days of Xia Nation people dominating secret realm trials are coming to an end!"

"..."

The gunpowder smell was palpable, as registration was open to the entire world.

And to ensure balance, people would generally be selected from each country.

If they weren't selected this time, the chance of being selected next time would be greater.

Regardless of the reasons, Chu Yang believed that their competitiveness was a good thing.

While the [Ascension Tower] also allowed for endless combat, for most people, even the first level was difficult to pass.

After fighting for too long, they would become despairing.

Due to differences in strength and aptitude, those who couldn't win truly had no chance.

But with [Doomsday Reenactment], everyone could experience the feeling of fighting on the battlefield. When Li Qingyun and others fought with Lamor in the Dragon Palace, everyone had watched with fiery passion.

However, many people also suggested that Chu Yang open more slots for trials in the immortal cultivation worlds.

To this, Chu Yang's stance was to wait.

From the three hundred people sent last time, the mortality rate was high, close to one-third.

Moreover, those people were all carefully selected, excelling in both aptitude and cultivation.

It was hard to imagine how much the mortality rate would skyrocket if cultivators with inferior aptitudes were sent in.

Of course, if one simply hid and didn't compete or snatch, the risk to life would be greatly reduced. However, in that case, one might as well go to the [Li Huo Palace] or [Deep Sea Dragon Palace] to cultivate!

What's more, in the immortal cultivation worlds, one would merely experience more of human treachery and scheming. Their current goal was to improve their strength to fight the Sky-Devouring Clan; why learn those things?
