Chapter 1564 -s 1512-1513: Trial Rules – The Anticipated Intensity
Forces from all directions were waiting outside the Myriad Laws Realm for the trial to begin; many familiar factions were greeting each other and exchanging information, eager to probe their opponents’ secrets.
And after an indeterminate amount of time had passed as they waited, far above the Myriad Laws Realm, a massive, purple-gold-framed, black-and-white leaderboard suddenly manifested out of thin air, with rows of glowing text emerging upon it.
As the leaderboard appeared, an ethereal voice rang out, clearly reaching every Chaos Flying Boat present and entering the ears of every creature.
"I, Pei Xuanjing, hereby initiate the trial of the Myriad Laws Realm. All cultivators below the True Immortal level may enter the Myriad Laws Realm to participate in the trial..."
"It’s the Longevity Taoist Monarch’s voice!" someone exclaimed.
"Shut up, don’t make noise. Since the trial of the Myriad Laws Realm is driven by the Taoist Monarch, what’s so strange if the person speaking is the Taoist Monarch? Better listen carefully to what the Taoist Monarch has to say—it’s crucial for our participation in the trial."
Next came Pei Xuanjing’s complete explanation of the rules for the Myriad Laws Realm’s trial.
Although Pang Hong and Yu Zhenzi had previously invited various forces to join the Myriad Laws Realm’s trial and discussed some relevant rules during this process, those were only partial. The final, fully resolved rules still needed refinement.
After all, this trial was entirely different from the previous Bloody Trial. The Bloody Trial was more about chance and destiny, where everyone was competing for the Divine Tree that Pang Hong and others had seized from the Bimong Tribe. Pei Xuanjing merely guided the situation for his own advantage; in truth, he didn’t give much in that bloody ordeal.
However, this time was a different story. The trial in the Myriad Laws Realm was initiated by him. Besides the Great Law Decree Technique of the Ten Supreme Divine Abilities, all opportunist fortunes within the realm had already been scoured once, leaving not much behind. Even if there were any, they wouldn’t help the powerful advance to True Immortal. Relying solely on these would hardly lure too many strong contenders, even if various factions intended to use this opportunity to rehearse a grand battle.
Therefore, Pei Xuanjing took matters into his hands, offering many fortuitous opportunities and setting the final rewards, ensuring the trial would not be meager.
Originally, Pei Xuanjing could have solely offered rewards to the final victor of the trial—for someone of his integrity, none would doubt or suspect him of reneging. Furthermore, the opportunity to ascend to True Immortal was enough to entice many strong beings.
But Pei Xuanjing felt that would be rather petty and unbefitting of his status. Thus, he set out many opportunist fortunes within the Myriad Laws Realm as surprises, allowing many powerful beings to have a chance to breakthrough, even if they lacked the strength to reach the end.
