Chapter 1077

Between Heaven and Earth fell into a deathly silence.

The Yin Vein Elder wore a strange look as he gazed at Xuanji Holy Lord.

Isn't it?

She really dares to think that!

A mere Wen Dao Realm dares to take charge of the Shadow Abyss?

Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor gave a light laugh, "The Seven Vein Elders have gathered here precisely for this Shadow Abyss. None of their veins can stomach this Shadow Abyss, and you, a mere Wen Dao Realm, have quite the appetite!"

Everyone nodded.

What Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor said is absolutely correct!

Although Bai is a monstrous genius, he is not yet strong enough to take charge of the Shadow Abyss.

Xuanji Holy Lord said, "Junior is willing to give it a try."

From the weight in Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor's tone, she could tell he didn't mind her saying that.

Then just keep persisting.

Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor said lightly, "Not bad. You didn't use the earlier bet as an excuse, letting me look at you again. In that case, the Shadow Abyss shall temporarily belong to your Luo Vein."

Upon hearing this, the Seven Vein Elders were all directly stunned.

Luo Sheng wore a face of unexpected joy.

Who would have thought that Bai's tossing about would actually leave behind the Shadow Abyss?

Strange Extinction Old Ancestor, Soul-Eating Elder, and others were even more shocked beyond words.

"Bai, simply a divine person!"

Such a thing, they absolutely cannot do.

Xuanji Holy Lord bowed to Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor, "Thank you, Old Ancestor, for fulfilling this."

She was not overly excited.

Only because such a heaven-defying Shadow Abyss could make the Seven Veins fight to the death, Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor naturally wouldn't so carelessly truly let her take charge.

To take charge of the Shadow Abyss almost means to take charge of nearly a vein of the Strange Palace.

To let a mere Wen Dao Realm sit in this position, the Strange Palace has never had!

Temporarily taking charge, these words carry deep meaning.

But it also proves that she has entered Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor's discerning eye.

At this moment.

The Seven Vein Elders all went "plop" and knelt on the ground, respectfully saying to Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor, "Old Ancestor, this matter is of great importance! Although Bai's talent and bloodline are heaven-defying, his cultivation is too weak. Please, Old Ancestor, think twice before acting!"

"Please, Old Ancestor, think twice before acting!"

"......"

They never expected Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor to make such a decision.

They came from afar to this star sea precisely for this Shadow Abyss!

Compared to the resources of the outer star sea, it's simply hard to behold!

This is truly the top priority!

Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor gave a cold snort, "If you want to blame someone, blame yourselves for betting with a junior and being suppressed by that junior! Now you have objections again. So tell me what should be done."

The Yin Vein Old Ancestor secretly thought, "Give Bai some cultivation resources?"

But they cannot say such words; only Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor can say them.

So they hemmed and hawed, "Please, Old Ancestor, make the decision!"

Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor pondered for a moment and said, "Since the Ranking Contest is about to descend, Bai, I give you an opportunity. If you become a Ranking, you may continue to take charge of this Shadow Abyss; if you fail, the Shadow Abyss will belong to the Seven Veins. How about that?"

Xuanji Holy Lord said, "Thank you, Old Ancestor. I am willing to participate in the Ranking Contest!"

She had been waiting for this opportunity.

Sure enough, Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor spoke these terms.

Everyone was stunned.

Originally they thought Bai would insist a bit, but they didn't expect Bai to actually compromise.

Far above the Void, Luo Sheng let out a sigh of relief.

It seems Bai, although fierce, is not brainless.

He also saw that everything Bai had done before was to draw out Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor.

He admitted he had underestimated Bai.

Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor flicked his sleeve, "In half a month, the Ranking Trial will take place in the Corroding Vein Star Region. Make your preparations. Bai, I look forward to your performance."

After saying that, the illusory figure above the Void slowly faded, finally the Void rift healed, and heaven and earth returned to a gloom.

Heaven and Earth were silent.

Although Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor had already announced the result, the Yin Vein Elder and the other Seven Vein people still could not accept it.

At this moment, Luo Sheng rose from within the Void, adopting a victor's posture and declared, "How about it? Dark Sorrow Old Ancestor has already given the order; could it be that you refuse to obey?"

The Yin Vein Elder and others' faces turned very ugly.

Soon after, their ears heard the voices of Yin Tian Jue, Corroding Origin Old Ancestor, etc., "Hurry up and get out! Disgraceful stuff!"

The Seven Vein Elders' faces changed again, and they directly waved a hand, ordering, "Retreat from the Luo Vein Star Sea!"

"Boom boom boom!"

Within the Void, a multitude of cloud ships surged with terrifying aura, beginning to rise, the gloomy divine radiance towering.

The elders and disciples of the Seven Veins all stepped onto the cloud ships.

Preparing to depart!

The Consuming Origin Old Ancestor's voice appeared in this starry sky, "Bai, you're not bad! This sequence trial is being held in my Luo Vein Star Sea; I look forward to your performance."

Everyone was shocked.

The Consuming Origin Old Ancestor also spoke up!

He expressed approval toward Bai!

But at this moment, the Consuming Origin Old Ancestor shifted tone, "However, Bai, I want to remind you. In the sequence struggle, those youngsters won't lower their cultivation, and by then each will have their trump cards. In this half month, prepare well; within Luo Jin's Shadow Abyss lies great fortune—if you can comprehend even a thread of its source, that will be enough."

The Xuanji Holy Lord bowed toward the void, "Thank you for the reminder, Old Ancestor!"

Not long after.

The Seven Veins Cloud Boat crossed the void, stirring endless waves; within the Luo Vein Starry Sky, strange power surged tumultuously, transforming into a heaven-reaching storm that continuously surged.

Rage!

They vented the rage in their hearts!

Again, waves rose in the starry sky!

As everyone left, Luo Sheng Elder came down with a boom, appearing before the Xuanji Holy Lord, and coldly snorted at the Seven Veins, "You only have this little promise! Let's see in the sequence struggle!"

Saying that, he looked at Bai with an excited expression, "Bai, you did well this time. Although only half a month remains, I can pass on some of my insights to you."

"I have also comprehended Luo Jin Old Ancestor's profound path, and have already obtained a thread of its source; perhaps it will help you."

The Xuanji Holy Lord said, "Thank you, Elder."

Luo Sheng nodded, gazing toward the Luo Vein Starry Sky, his eyes deep, his face showing an extremely complex expression.

"Bai, there are not many strong ones left in my Luo Vein Starry Sky."

"Perhaps you can truly command the Shadow Abyss!"

"As long as you become a sequence, our Luo Vein will not be considered destroyed. Then, the Luo Vein will become history, and the Bai Vein will become the eighth vein of the Ghost Palace! And I, Luo Sheng, am willing to lend you my strength!"

Upon these words, the remaining elders of the Luo Vein were all extremely shocked.

These words almost declared that Luo Sheng was willing to submit to Bai!

However, once Bai becomes a sequence, he will indeed command the Shadow Abyss and can rise slowly.

Everyone looked toward the Xuanji Holy Lord, as if looking at a divine being.

This time, it was entirely Bai's own effort!

He dared to act against the Seven Veins' elders; this courage, they themselves believed they could not muster.

Luo Sheng looked toward the Deceitful Destruction Old Ancestor, "Before, Bai was under your command in the lower realm. You brought him up; you have merit!"

Saying that, Luo Sheng Elder flicked his sleeve.

Whoosh!

A stream of light appeared before the Deceitful Destruction Old Ancestor.

A storage ring!

The Deceitful Destruction Old Ancestor probed with his divine sense, and was extremely shocked—the resources in this storage ring are too terrifying!

All of this is entirely because of Bai!

In the crowd, an ordinary-looking man secretly nodded, "Fourth Junior Sister, you really do have something."
