Chapter 428: Ten Bell Tolls, Will the Dao Child Be Established?

~7 min read 1,288 words

Dong! Dong!?? nine

The Great Dao Bell burst forth again with brilliant light, the grand Dao resonance shooting straight into the clouds!

Nine resonant, thunderous bell sounds echoed throughout heaven and earth!

For a moment, the sect square fell utterly silent again.

Another nine chimes? Immortal Emperor potential?

Elder Ye Bai even began to doubt life.

What's going on today?

It's too crazy! Two disciples with nine-chime Immortal Emperor potential appeared in a row!

What are your two names?

Ye Bai opened his mouth to ask.

Elder, I am Tang Zhou.

That's my good brother, Meng Fan.

Tang Zhou spoke respectfully.

Although I possess Immortal Emperor potential, if I don't cultivate it, it's worth nothing.

This person before me is actually an Outer Sect Elder of our sect, a supreme powerhouse of the Immortal King Realm!

Hmm, this elder knows; you two wait over there.

At that moment, Meng Fan beside him asked: "By the way, Elder, what sect are we disciples of with this nine-chime Immortal Emperor potential?"

As long as we don't die young, we will surely become Immortal Emperors!

Our two talents are sufficient, but to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm we still need vast amounts of cultivation resources.

We'll have to rely on the sect's nurturing.

Of course, if we want the sect to nurture us greatly, we must let the sect see our value.

Nine chimes, huh… still just a menial disciple.

Your cultivation isn't enough yet; once your cultivation rises, you'll be able to advance smoothly all the way.

Wait, why does this sentence sound a bit familiar?

Oh right, the Ning Yan sequence had just joined the sect and asked me this same question back then.

(Ning Yan: "Elder, what sect disciple is someone with eight chimes?"

Ye Bai: "Eight chimes, huh… still an Outer Sect disciple.")

Even Ye Jie, waiting in line behind them, was shaken by the two nine-chime Immortal Emperor potentials.

Dao Formation Immortal Body?

Combat Immortal Body?

No wonder these two could strike such terrifying nine chimes.

They possess these two extraordinary physiques; if they don't fall, they truly have a great chance to surge into the Immortal Emperor Realm.

Thinking of this, Ye Jie also rare-ly felt anticipation rise.

Nine chimes equal Immortal Emperor potential—so how many chimes could I produce?

Nine chimes? Or perhaps even higher?

After this little interlude, the talent test continued.

However, with those two nine-chime talents ahead, even later geniuses who managed six chimes seemed pale and powerless.

Soon, more than half of the testers had finished, leaving only a small portion still continuing.

Among them, those with one or two chimes were the majority; three chimes had two thousand people, four chimes one thousand, five chimes dropped sharply to fewer than twenty, and six chimes were even fewer—only three people.

Elder Ye Bai considered this result fairly satisfactory.

After all, the number of participants this time was too low; being able to select even these few disciples was already no easy feat.

Moreover, there are two dark horses—two nine-chime Immortal Emperor potentials!

In a sense, recruiting just these two surpasses millions of heavenly prideful talents who came to take the exam!

Around the square's perimeter, some senior disciples were still watching.

Inner Sect disciple Jitai Mei even widened his eyes, closely observing every move of the testers on the square.

I just don't believe it—there's nobody as unlucky as me!

At this moment, a youth with a heroic appearance but an aged, stern demeanor walked up before the Nine Cauldrons Great Dao Bell.

This action of his attracted many gazes.

This youth, in the first stage, was as if walking on flat ground; Tang… Senior Brother and Meng Senior Brother, like him, all tested out nine-chime talent.

I don't know how many chimes this youth can strike, but he definitely won't be lacking!

Meng Fan and Tang Zhou beside him also turned their gazes to that mysterious youth before the Great Dao Bell.

The two of them were also very curious about this youth's talent.

Ye Jie before the Great Dao Bell couldn't care less what they thought.

He swiftly thrust out his palm, heavily striking the Great Dao Bell with one blow.

Bang!

After being struck, the Great Dao Bell merely trembled slightly, yet no sound came forth.

Huh? What's going on? No response?

Damn, my talent is only half a chime's worth—I didn't expect there to be someone even worse than me!

This shouldn't be!

Tang Zhou and Meng Fan both showed expressions of bewilderment.

This mysterious youth passed the first stage so easily.

Moreover, even I can't see through this person, and you're telling me he has no talent? That's ridiculous!

Yet faced with this scene, Ye Jie showed no panic, still as steady as an old dog.

As expected, soon three breaths of time passed.

The Great Dao Bell before him began to tremble violently!

Then it burst forth with blinding golden light, as if heaven and earth were dyed gold!

Majestic immortal qi surged together in an instant!

Countless fearsome Dao paths joyfully appeared above the azure firmament of Qingyun Sect.

"Dong!?? 10"

Ten heavy bell tones resonated throughout heaven and earth.

In an instant, countless cultivators within the Two Great Dao Realms were all startled!

"Holy crap! What sound is that? The bell?"

"It seems to be the bell, ringing ten times total—what on earth caused such a huge commotion!"

"You say, could it possibly be..."

"Don't forget what day it is today—today is the day Qingyun Immortal Sect opens its mountain to recruit disciples!"

At this moment, on the Qingyun Sect side, many disciples and elders within the sect were startled.

"The Great Dao Bell tolled ten times! This is unprecedented! This is unprecedented!"

"Yeah! Although the heavenly-pride cultivators who came for this mountain opening are few, they're incredibly fierce!"

"Two Nine-Chime Immortal Emperor talents are already terrifying enough—how can there also be a Ten-Chime talent?"

Those with Nine-Chime talent, if they don't die young, will surely become Immortal Emperors.

Those with Ten-Chime talent, their future is immeasurable!

They will certainly surpass the Immortal Emperor!

At the same time, within the magnificently vast Qingyun Immortal Palace.

"Interesting, too interesting."

"I didn't expect this Seven Tribulations Immortal Emperor, oh no, the reincarnation of the Seven Tribulations Immortal Emperor, Ye Jie, actually gave himself a surprise."

"Ten-Chime talent, the future will definitely be above the Immortal Emperor."

Feng Qingyang withdrew his divine sense, muttering to himself.

【"Ding, the appearance of a Ten-Chime heavenly pride; the Lord can take him into the sect to nurture, perhaps he will be the future Dao Son of Qingyun."】

A mechanical voice of the system sounded in his mind.

Everyone, listen up—this is the system encouraging me to recruit.

Then my subsequent actions wouldn't be considered cheating……

Thinking of this, Feng Qingyang sent a sound transmission to Elder Ye Bai Fa using his divine sense.

At the sect plaza, Ye Bai, who had received the transmission, nodded.

Then he glanced over all the examinees on the plaza.

They were basically still in shock.

What ten bell tolls signify had already far exceeded their imagination.

After all, Nine Chimes is a heaven-defying talent that guarantees becoming an Immortal Emperor.

And what about Ten Chimes? Above the Immortal Emperor?

As for this result, it was also within Ye Jie's expectations.

After all, in his previous life he was at the peak of the Immortal Emperor, only to fall when attempting to break through to a higher realm.

In this life, with the rich experience of his previous life, he dare not say he will surely succeed, but he is confident he will not be worse than his previous life.
