Since the Jade Capital Sect Leader had already given the command, the Golden Core True Persons unleashed their divine skills.

In no time, countless spells, magical treasures, and sword qi interwove into a tapestry, quickly shrouding the summit of Xihua Mountain in dust and flying snow.

Qiu Changtian silently observed and realized that this group of Golden Core True Persons was of truly high quality, far surpassing cultivators of the same realm in terms of True Yuan level, combat consciousness, and technique.

So that’s how it is, I understand what the Demon Cult is plotting now.

Allow the three Intercepting Cult Immortals here to pull off a grand move, leveling the entire Xihua Mountain.

The Three Pure Orthodox Sect, having endured the painful loss of the cultivation seeds, would likely never recover from such a blow, would they?

After several hours, everyone finally broke through the thick ice layer and began pushing it aside.

“Here!” Suddenly, someone exclaimed.

Qiu Changtian turned his head to look and, to his surprise, it was Luo Yan who had called out.

That makes sense, as both Ling Yunpo and Luo Yan are me from the future; it seems they already knew how to unlock the Golden Que Secret Realm.

The crowd quickly rushed to the source of the voice and saw that Luo Yan had already cleared a section of the ice-apparently, it was part of some sort of altar.

He activated the Five Elements Divine Light of Acquired Nature, and the ice swiftly melted away, soon revealing the full scope of the altar.

It was an ancient-looking altar, entirely constructed with an unknown type of stone, with many areas lacking polishing marks, as if they were roughly stacked together.

At the top of the altar, there was a clearly defined indentation.

The Jade Capital Sect Leader compared it with the jade figurine he was holding and found it to be the perfect fit.

He then inserted it into the indentation.

Indeed, the moment the jade figurine touched the indentation on the platform, it seemed to take root and adhere to it instantaneously.

Then, a golden band of light resembling a ribbon rose from the altar, slanting upwards and piercing the clouds, reaching into the heavenly dome as if it was an open pathway.

Seeing this, a realization dawned on everyone: it seemed the jade figurine was the key to the Golden Que Secret Realm, able to open this pathway by placing it on the platform.

In the distant past, for some unknown reason, the jade figurine had been knocked from the platform, resulting in the closure of this passage and immediate inaccessibility to the Golden Que Secret Realm.

Centuries of snow and ice had since buried the altar and the jade figurine together, rendering this secret realm unknown to all.

The Jade Capital Sect Leader’s divine sense swept over the area, and he calmly stepped onto the light path.

As his foot touched it, the radiance immediately solidified, creating a pathway leading to the heavens.

Right after, the figure of the Jade Capital Sect Leader staggered momentarily, as though pushed back by an invisible force from the light path.

“Just as expected,” he said, regaining composure after retreating a few steps.

“With the current absence of the ruler of the Golden Que, the restrictions have been activated, permitting only Golden Core Realm True Persons to enter for the trial.”

“Master,” Master Jinghua inquired with clasped hands, “what do you mean by ‘the ruler of the Golden Que’?”

“During the ancient great competitions in White Jade Capital, those who emerged within the top twelve of the Foundation Establishment Realm were the twelve masters of White Jade Capital,” the Jade Capital Sect Leader replied.

“In ancient times, the Human Race needed to confront numerous other races, so all major secret realms and treasures were held by those with the ability to do so.

For example, the Tai Yang and Tai Yin swords each have their corresponding Sword Masters.”

“The Golden Que Secret Realm likewise has its ruler.

Should one wish to seek the Seven Treasures Mysterious Garden Secret Realm in the future, it would also require the ruler of the Golden Que.”

With just a few words, he clarified everything and the Golden Core True Persons immediately understood.

“`

Then, the real persons from Kunlun and Penglai became frustrated.

“No wonder our two sects together have only six people, while you Shushan monopolize six by yourselves!

It seems like you intend to dominate half of the Golden Que masters!”

On closer consideration, the intent of the Jade Capital Sect Leader also seemed rather cryptic: In ancient times, the Human Race had to compete with other races, so they adhered to ‘the capable one should occupy the position’, emphasizing fairness and efficiency.

Now that the world is under the dominion of the Human Race, naturally there is no need to strictly abide by ‘the capable one should occupy the position’.

The whereabouts of the Golden Que Secret Realm were first discovered by the Shushan side, so they demanded more quotas.

Recalling that their own sect leader must have already accepted this condition, the cultivators from Kunlun and Penglai had nothing more to say, only silently gazing at the heavenly light path.

Of course, with a complex mind like Qiu Changtian, he naturally thought one step deeper:

The Jade Capital Sect Leader said that one has to undergo a trial to become a master of the Golden Que.

Logically, that means one must pass the trial to qualify.

???g?.??

There are twelve master positions in the Golden Que, and the Three Pure Orthodox Sect brought exactly twelve people this time, the numbers perfectly matching.

From this, one could deduce that the passing rate for these twelve people is bound to be one hundred percent; otherwise, the Three Pure Orthodox Sect would never have sent only twelve people over.

However, this didn’t quite make sense either: Could the test of the Golden Que Secret Realm be so simple?

Could any Golden Core True Person just arrive and pass it?

Clearly unlikely, unless, like the Great White Jade Capital Contest, the internal test of the Golden Que Secret Realm is also designed based on competition.

A multitude of competitors, with only the final twelve to win the title of Golden Que master-of course, this too is under the greater ancient human custom of ‘the capable one should occupy the position’.

Now there is no need to say more, the Three Pure Orthodox Sect concealed the news of this secret realm together, so the twelve orthodox cultivators will inevitably become the twelve Golden Que masters, the only question being the order of ranking.

In the blink of an eye, Qiu Changtian had an epiphany.

The Great White Jade Capital Contest mainly occurred because the Three Pure Orthodox Sect had not yet thoroughly researched the mechanism of the secret realm, so they adhered to the requirements of the secret realm, sent a large number of cultivators over, and then, following the normal procedure, decided the twelve masters of the White Jade Capital, also obtaining the news of the Golden Que Secret Realm.

This was clearly risky: To hold such a grand event, the news was almost certain to leak out, attracting the covetous eyes of the Demon Cult.

Therefore, upon reaching the Golden Que Secret Realm, the Three Pure Orthodox Sect began to further attempt ‘internal assimilation’ and ‘complete monopoly,’ which is the natural course of action for any sect when faced with interests…

Just as Qiu Changtian was seeing the light, suddenly, a surge of black fog came rolling from afar.

“Not good!” The Jade Capital Sect Leader shouted abruptly, “Run quickly!”

The Golden Core True Persons of the Three Cults were all taken aback, and then suddenly, a figure rushed up the heavenly light path ahead of everyone.

It was Qing Heng, the Real Person from Shushan, known as Ling Yunpo!

Immediately afterwards An Zhisu, the Jiao Xiao Real Person, subconsciously followed closely behind, followed by Luo Yan, the Penglai’s Master Jingyun, who was only five or six steps behind the former, still holding onto Dong You’s Master Shi Liuli…

The latter had not quite reacted yet, and was completely dragged up by Luo Yan.

“Brother!” Xu Yinglian exclaimed in alarm and quickly grasped Qiu Changtian’s hand, then they both rushed towards the altar above.

It was only then that the remaining Golden Core True Persons awoke as if from a dream and hurried each toward the altar, only to see layers of dark fog suddenly descend, covering the entire altar in an instant; it was Wei Dongliu’s Myriad Avatar Absolute Immortal Sword Formation.

“Don’t use Sword Control!” from within the black fog, came Wei Dongliu’s cold and stern growl, “Run!

Take the light path above the altar!”
