Chosen Man
Weird Village

Zhou Yang's submissive attitude caused Ling Huayi to silently shake her head and not say anything more.

In the Hidden Sky Sect, there were strict rules and hierarchies.

In the eyes of most inner court disciples, for new disciples who did not have special backgrounds, it was, they would only be considered like servants who could be told at will by seniors with extraordinary backgrounds.

If Li Huayi did not insist on allowing Zhou Yang to come sit at his desk and share the drink with the others, it would be as if he was humbling Zhou Yang, who was not the best, and that would probably cause everyone present to demean Zhou Yang even more.

“I've heard that the Long Imperial Family has invited many great figures of the cultivation world and harnessed the power of the world-protecting Darkness Guards to compile three ranking categories. They were each in the split into the Ancient Genius Rank of the ancient times, the current Genius Rank, and the Ranking of Demon Lords.

Lao Yunchi suddenly said, "On these three levels, the, in the first and second rank categories would list the names of the ancient monstrous geniuses and contemporary geniuses that had emerged from the entire Luo Mainland in the past ten years."

“On the other hand, the Ranking of Demon Lords is called the Black List. As long as one appeared in those rankings, then that person would be considered a public enemy of the middle continent cultivation world. No matter who was able to exterminate the characters present in that Demon Ruler Rank, one would be able to obtain an enormous reward from the Long Imperial Family.

Everyone seems interested.

Genius Rank of ancient times!

Current Genius Ranking!

The Demon Lord Rank!

The purpose of these three ranks was very clear.

The ancient Genius Rankings were addressed to those who were each of the monstrous geniuses of the past who had managed to rise from a long slumber after surviving the Forbidden Formation that came from a Heavenly Calamity, The Darkness Barrier Energy that happened fifty thousand years ago. They were the descendants of the rulers from the Other World, who infiltrated the Luo Mainland.

Whereas the current generation Genius Rankers were those whose names had been able to shake the entire region in the past ten years.

Someone said in a low voice, "Regardless of whether it is an ancient demon or a contemporary genius, they are all cultivators of the Luo Mainland. And when these individuals descendants of rulers from other worlds came to the Luo Mainland, they all definitely had ulterior motives...

"And another motive of making the Ranking of Demon Lords was obviously to order all the cultivators in the world to come to deal together with the lure of a great reward."

"Those who are not of our race, so they will definitely have different intentions. It was said that when that great era arrived, cultivators from other worlds would attack en masse. At that time, who knew how messed up the world was."

The Darkness Restriction Energy had existed since fifty thousand years ago to shackle or at least be able to restrict the movements of the true demons and evil cultivators who had deviant ways of cultivating in the past.

But as time went on, the Darkness Restriction Energy was getting weaker, and it had been predicted by Long Shangdi that it would further weaken and completely disperse within 4-5 years from now.

At that time, the protector or atmosphere of the Luo Mainland would also be at its weakest point, so it was likely that there would be countless cultivators from other worlds coming to this world.

Someone sighed and said,

"No need to worry about this. Is it a new era? The world will undergo a great change and eruption of spiritual aura. All cultivators in the world had hopes of reaching a leap in their cultivation realms. Along with the appearance of ancient monsters one by one, as well as the invasion of cultivators from another world, the structures inherent in this world would definitely be destroyed. A new order will surely form in the midst of bloodshed and chaos."

Someone said in a deep voice, "This is something that cannot be avoided at all. All we need to do is make enough preparations before this great era arrives and participate in witnessing the world change!"

Everyone was drinking wine and discussing at the same time. The things they were talking about made Zhou Yang's heart secretly soar with excitement, and he was filled with enthusiasm towards that dazzling grand era.

He knew very well that with just his current talent, he would probably take many years to gain a strong foothold in the Hidden Sky Sect.

Even worse thing was that no matter how hard he worked hard in cultivation, he did not, it was highly likely that he would remain trampled under the feet of genius disciples during the process of his journey to becoming strong.

And for a character like him, there was almost no chance for him to become strong quickly.

Unless they find great opportunities and luck.

For Zhou Yang, the great era that would arrive a few years later was a glorious opportunity that could change the fate of his cultivation path!

At this time, Ling Huayi said, “According to my knowledge, the three ranks compiled by the Imperial Family will be announced half a month from now. At that time, it just so happened to be a month before the start of the grand event of the Eternal Lotus Competition."

As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the outside. "It's late, we have to go."

Lao Yunchi and the others hurriedly stood up and followed behind him.

Zhou Yang could only follow from behind like a servant that no one cared about.

A bright moon shone in the sky, and the stars twinkled.

In the vast wilderness, Feng Zun and the others continued on foot.

The scenery he had seen all this time was indeed different from daylight, and carried a silent, natural, and wild aura.

Night is also the time when birds, animals, and mountain spirits are most active.

Ordinary people would not dare to pass through the forest at this time.

Feng Zun and the others were naturally not ordinary people.

Just the demonic aura emitted by Zhuan Long, it was enough to frighten all the demonic beasts and monsters along the way. They dare not approach them.

"Hide your aura."

Suddenly, Feng Zun seemed to sense something and reminded them.

As he finished speaking, he stared towards the distant mountains.

The night sky there was covered in a thick layer of black clouds and a slightly terrifying aura.

If one did not feel it carefully, then it would be very difficult to find it.

"Let's go and see."

Feng Zun was interested.

Their figures turned into shadows and flickered as they flashed towards the distant mountains.

The next few moments.

Immediately, the outline of a village appeared in the vision of Feng Zun and the others.

The village is very small, with a circumference of at most a thousand meters, and is located among the mountains.

Many lantern lights in the village are lit and look crowded. And above the village, the black clouds were thick and heavy, and there was an aura of killing intent within them.

"It looks like it's a ghost town?"

Yin Ying was shocked.

It was naturally very unusual for an extraordinarily crowded village to appear in the boundless and remote wilderness.

When one saw the surging evil mist and ghostly aura above the village, anyone could tell that this village must be extremely dangerous!

"This is the real 'Mystery Market."

Feng Zun's divine eyes were engulfed by a deep light, and he was able to realize with a single glance that the village was merely an illusion that had the original form of a ruin.

All of the refined beings gathered in the village were involved in various types of transactions.

The atmosphere looked lively and lively. When the sky starts to clear, both the village and the ghosts in the village will scatter, avoiding the sunlight.

Compared to the existing mystery market in Jade City, this place was naturally a real mystery market.

“I want to know what kind of treasure the creatures are selling. Let's take a look. Remember, do not reveal your aura, otherwise the subtle creatures will be surprised.”

Feng Zun was interested. He gave the order and flew towards the village first.

It was already very late at night, yet he was actually able to find such a terrifying city filled with strange colors in the depths of the wilderness. It would be a pity if he did not travel there.

Yin Ying and Zhuan Long followed behind.
