Chapter 447: The Name of the Primordial Realm, Spreading Throughout the Heavens
Huaguo, Taishan.
The immortal bridge stretched all the way to the horizon, but no matter how long, it still had an end.
A little over an hour later, the first batch of people were standing on the section of the immortal bridge at the rift in the heavens. During this time, two or three golden lotuses fell in succession, carrying off two or three people.
No need to say more—everyone guessed these people might be like the very first Gao Xiang Hong, blessed with exceptionally favored talent that stood out, one in ten thousand, and might even possess some special constitution like those in certain stories.
Only then were they admitted by exception.
For a moment, all manner of envy, jealousy, and hatred showed plainly on their faces, but there was nothing to be done about it—one couldn't exactly be reborn.
At this moment, standing before the rift, they finally saw that there was actually a thin film over the rift, like a water surface, as if a single breath could send ripples across it.
"I wonder how this kind of structure actually exists."
A scientist standing on the immortal bridge felt the fires of scientific research blaze within him, and reached out in fascination to touch the edge of the rift.
Then.
He was simply gone.
Right in front of the thousands of people on the immortal bridge, he just naturally disintegrated, not a single hair left behind, as if he had exploded into thin air.
Hiss!!!
The others stepped back in unison, and it was only because the immortal bridge was extremely wide that no one fell off.
They stared in horror at the spot where a living person had just been standing.
This damn thing probably counts as being reduced to ash and smoke—probably not even a chance to reincarnate.
Many people immediately backed off.
But many others still mustered their courage and stepped into the heaven-rending rift.
In an instant.
Heaven and earth transformed.
A completely unexpected scene appeared before their eyes.
What greeted them was a vast yellow sand desert.
Looking as far as the eye could see, it was all a stretch of vast, heavy yellow; sand whipped by the wind, swirling straight up.
Above the desert, a blanket of clouds spread across the horizon, drifting slowly, casting enormous shadows over the bullied desert below. The sky and earth here seemed to gaze at each other in an ancient silence, yet like two parallel timelines, never to meet.
"What the hell, weren't we promised immortal mountains and fairy realms? How did it turn into a desert?"
Someone gazed at this boundless desert that seemed vast and endless, and a wave of despair rose within them.
Without bringing water, without bringing food, coming to a boundless desert like this—wasn't that just seeking death?
Immediately, some people wanted to turn back, instinctively feeling that perhaps the beings within the immortal mountains and fairy realms had never intended to give any opportunity.
"Holy shit."
Turning around, that person's face was full of despair.
The way back was gone.
Some despaired, while others remained relatively calm, wondering if this might be another trial, like the immortal bridge, testing people.
They had heard that immortal bridges had appeared in many places around the globe. With over a thousand people entering here in the first batch, plus those from other places, and more to come later, the number was at least several tens of thousands, no doubt about it.
That many people—surely a bit too many.
"The phone still works."
Suddenly someone took out their phone and saw that, although the way back was gone, the signal was still there, and full bars.
Immediately, some people checked their phones, going online to look into the situation.
The result of this check revealed that those who entered were not all here—people who entered the immortal bridges from various places around the world had appeared in different locations, with completely different environments.
"Better turn off the phone first, conserve some battery. If we can't get out of here, at least we can use the phone to send some last words to our families."
An office worker said.
"Hey, Ma Chen, look at those idiots, actually wearing ancient costumes here. Where did they come in from, Japan? Playing cosplay?"
The speaker was a young man in a tracksuit who glanced at them as if they were idiots, and said to the friend beside him.
That friend took a look and exclaimed in surprise:
"Damn, it really is cosplay, holy shit! These outfits actually look pretty good, they've got that xianxia ancient costume vibe. If the beings of the immortal mountains and fairy realms saw this, it'd probably be right up their aesthetic—might even boost their impression score."
As this fellow spoke, he walked over and patted the ancient-costume youth on the shoulder.
"Bro, that's a clever idea—wearing xianxia fantasy outfits. These outfits aren't cheap, huh, and the sword looks pretty real too, must be at least a few thousand yuan, right?
Huh? Is your hair real?"
When his companion tugged at the ancient-costume youth's hair, the youth nearly exploded in rage, but luckily Gao Xiang Hong and Zhang Hao beside him stopped him in time.
Others couldn't tell, but Gao Xiang Hong could see that the ancient-costume youth wasn't doing cosplay—he was a cultivator from another world; he could sense the realm fluctuations emanating from him.
"That's not cosplay, they're people from another world."
Gao Xiang Hong and Zhang Hao said in unison.
And that ancient-costume youth recognized Zhang Hao, because he too was a person from Lord Tianhong's Great Realm, so he immediately suppressed his rage and gave Zhang Hao face.
"Xiang Hong!"
"Zhang Hao!"
Gao Xiang Hong and Zhang Hao looked at each other, only to discover the other was also here.
What followed was easy to imagine.
With Gao Xiang Hong and Zhang Hao explaining to everyone, all the people came to understand.
It turned out...
The immortal bridge hadn't just transported Earth people to this desert—living beings from other worlds had also been transported to the same place.
Worth mentioning.
To protect the Earthlings and to shape the Origin Realm, Kamikawa Mitsu mixed beings from the myriad heavens together with the Earthlings and distributed them to various places, but in every place, among the otherworldly visitors there were sure to be beings who understood the Origin Realm.
Kamikawa Mitsu intended to borrow the mouths of these otherworldly beings who understood the Origin Realm to spread word of it outward.
Soon, in many places, many people discovered that these people who had suddenly appeared in retro attire were not just one batch, nor had they appeared in places that had agreed to it.
Some of them didn't even look human—mart arts experts, immortal cultivators, divine-path practitioners, and even non-human ghosts, corpses, fierce beasts, and the like all appeared.
But without exception, they were all beings of high intelligence; even the fierce beasts did not follow their instincts and bite the heads off the people present.
Apart from the fact that this was an immortal's blessed land, and no one knew whether killing within the realm would displease the realm's master, there was another point…
Those who understood the Origin Realm—the Great Sage King, Bai Yuanxianjun, the Demon Lord, the Sage of Human City, Aitu, and other gods, demons, immortals, and devils—did not permit these people to lay a hand on the Origin Realm.
They were well aware of the Origin Realm's protective temperament.
They were also well aware that this blessed land was most likely created by a great figure of the Origin Realm, and killing Origin Realm people here would very likely anger that great figure.
At the same time,
More and more people entered the rift, with tens of thousands assigned to each place, and the number was still growing.
At the very same moment,
The beings of every world, scattered across the various places, learned of the Origin Realm from the mouths of the Great Sage King, Bai Yuanxianjun, the Demon Lord, the Sage of Human City, Aitu, and other gods, demons, immortals, and devils who were familiar with it.
The people of the Origin Realm also learned that the Xianqiao was not aimed at the whole globe, but at the myriad heavens and worlds.
The beings who came here were from different worlds, encompassing every world in the myriad heavens—be they small worlds, great worlds, or even worlds of the myriad-heaven level.
Borrowing mobile phones, people posted the situation online.
Boiling!
Shocking!
Stunned!!
This time, the Jixia Academy was not merely recruiting on Earth, but selecting talent from the myriad heavens and worlds, because from the mouths of these people from other worlds, people knew that even if these otherworldly visitors were not the strongest batch from their own worlds, they were absolutely upper-tier elites.
Too powerful.
This spirit of swallowing the universe in a single breath was simply terrifying.
The Jixia Academy's grand magnificence was displayed without a doubt.
This was the true bearing of a supreme power.
