Chapter 79: The Divine Stele, 9527

  Almost at the same time as Lin Huang connected with the Dream God Machine War Book, in the Dream God Realm, the Divine Stele.

  As a record of the strongest holy rank in all heavens and realms, the Divine Stele records 10,000 surnames that illuminate all realms. Each one is at the peak of Great Sage, incredibly powerful, and has the potential to become a god.

  Many people like to stand under the divine stele, looking up at the surnames that shine for eternity, because every person on the divine stele is a pride of the ten thousand realms, dominating a vast world, unmatched in their time.

  Being able to carve one's name on the Stele of Gods not only means standing firm in the ranks of the strongest saints in the Ten Thousand Realms, but also showcases the strength of each major world.

  Currently, the world with the most surnames on the Divine Monument is the second-ranked You Realm in the Ten Thousand Realms, with a total of seventeen people on the list. However, only three of them are ranked within the top hundred, and one has entered the top ten. In comparison, the first-ranked Tian Ren Realm has only thirteen people on the list, but each and every one of them is a top thirty powerhouse, with two even entering the top ten. They are known as the Thirteen Sacred Heavenly Messengers, conquering the Ten Thousand Realms and spreading glory, ranking number one in the Ten Thousand Realms.

  Only eight people from the Human Realm made it to the rankings. The War Saint, Yuan Zhan, who ranked ninth, was still in a state of being expelled from the Human Realm and couldn't be considered a true Great Sage of the Human Realm. The remaining seven were: the 37th-ranked Taiyi Sect Master Xu Zhongyi; the 237th-ranked Wushang Daoist Temple Master Wushen; the 1754th-ranked Hong Family Ancestor Hong Tian; the 9631st-ranked Zhongnan Sword Saint of the Zhongnan Daoist Temple. The last three were the Three Holy Mothers, who ranked at the bottom of the Divine Stele, but they were always considered as one entity, and their true ranking could enter the top eight thousand.

  If compared to the Heavenly Realm and the Demon Realm, the Human Realm's strength on the Divine Monument is naturally nothing to speak of. However, among the countless worlds in the multiverse, many don't even have a single Saint ranked on the monument. Take the San Gui Realm, for example, which is closest to the Human Realm and boasts of being third among all realms. In reality, it only has two Saints ranked, and their rankings are not high, both around 8,000th place. However, rumor has it that one of them received the personal guidance of a Saintly Angel from the Heavenly Realm and went to the Heavenly Realm to cultivate the Great Radiant Divine Technique, with strength expected to break into the top 3,000.

  So the sacred position on the Divine Stele represents not only personal martial power, but also showcases the strength of various major worlds.

  Each time the Divine Stele changes, it attracts the attention of countless people, meaning that in the vast expanse of the multiverse, another extraordinary saint with the potential to become a god has emerged, possessing the power to change the fate of an entire world.

  So when the Divine Stele was replaced once again, and the two words "Lin Huang" were written in the 9,527th position, the Ten Thousand Realms shook.

  "Another peerless great saint has emerged! Look quickly, which great world's great saint is it?"

  "Human world, Lin Huang. This name, so familiar."

  "What's going on in the human world?!"

  After a brief silence, they burst into a tumultuous uproar.

  "Is that the otherworldly Lin Huang who's been called a fake saint?!"

  "That Lin Huang who became a Saint at just twenty-six years old?!"

  "That Lin Huang who entered the Fallen God Battlefield and was shouted by countless geniuses to be suppressed?!"

  It's chaotic, it's chaotic. In the midst of the myriad heavens and realms, countless pieces of information are being transmitted, especially those who have bestowed heavy treasures, wanting to make their disciples rise to fame and fortune in one fell swoop, and the great families who want to establish themselves as saints, all become somewhat flustered.

  Let those geniuses go challenge a peerless great saint who has entered the Divine Stele? It's simply seeking death.

  In the vast expanse of the multiverse, many powerful sects' leaders turned extremely ugly at this moment, and worse news followed one after another. Many geniuses who had left their soul lanterns in the sect fell, and their soul lanterns went out, causing a stir throughout the multiverse.

  "What exactly happened in the battlefield of the fallen gods?!"

  "Why did so many geniuses fall!"

  "Could it be related to Lin Huang?!"

  "He suddenly entered the divine stele, could it be that he is cultivating evil methods, killing his way to enlightenment?"

  All sorts of speculations spread throughout the Ten Thousand Realms.

  Bing Feng Jian Sheng felt a bit restless, after learning the news of Xu Qing Cheng and others returning to the sect, he immediately set off, heading towards the Hong family, wanting to ask Hong Ren Yi what had happened.

  "The great trend of Lin's dominance had already been established, with a solid foundation. He swept through the Fallen God Battlefield undefeated, and all geniuses became his underlings, searching for sacrifices for him. However, he suddenly disappeared without warning, and the entire Fallen God Battlefield was destroyed, causing many geniuses to meet their demise."

  "We were able to escape by the skin of our teeth because Lin Huang made his move at the last minute, opening up a path for us. I was only able to escape with my life thanks to the old ancestor's manuscript. I didn't dare stay for long and used the Great Shift Talisman to hurry back. The others had similar experiences."

  In just one short day, big things kept happening, and Hong Tian, the old ancestor of the Hong family, was shocked and personally came out to ask about Hong Renyi.

  Bing Feng Jian Sheng's face looked unpleasant, with Hong Jia Lao Zu Hong Tian present, he didn't dare ask more questions, and could only stare at Hong Tian with pleading eyes, hoping that he would speak up about everything that happened today, which was actually just an illusion.

  Hong Tian sank into thought for a moment, he had been sitting in the Hong family for 30,000 years, his status was supreme, his silver hair was hoary, but there was not a hint of old age, sitting there, majestic and awe-inspiring, although he hadn't spoken yet, but he had the power to make all living beings feel calm and peaceful.

  "Human, you should know that Lin Huang's name has now entered the Divine Monument, ranking 9527."

  Hong Tian slowly opened his mouth, his voice loud and clear, one sentence made Hong Renyi take a big surprise.

  "Ancestor, how is this possible?!" Hong Renyi was truly shocked. He acknowledged that Lin Huang was very strong, but he didn't think that Lin Huang had already become strong enough to enter the Divine Monument. To be able to enter the Divine Monument, which one wasn't a cultivator who had endured hardships and practiced for thousands of years? Even Zhan Shengyuan, known as the number one prodigy in the mortal world, had cultivated for 3,000 years before rising to fame 300 years ago and entering the Divine Monument.

  But Lin Huang, even if he had started cultivating from birth, hadn't reached thirty years old, yet he actually entered the Divine Monument.

  This news made Hong Renyi suddenly lose his spirit, feeling desperate and bitter, sighing for a long time, not knowing what to say.

  "The Divine Monument only looks at achievements. Lin Huang was able to enter the Divine Monument, so he must have had an earth-shattering battle; otherwise, it would be impossible for him to enter the monument." Hong Tian spoke calmly, also a famous figure on the Divine Monument, knowing the conditions for being ranked on it. He rubbed his fingers together, "So, the collapse of the Fallen God Battlefield you mentioned should be the result of his battle with someone else that destroyed it."

  Hong Tian observes everything, restores reality, and grasps the truth.

  Hong Renyi was a bit disheartened, "As Lao Zu guessed, I also seemed to see Lin Huang in a battle with someone."

  But when asked about some details, Hong Renyi was at a loss and didn't know anything.

  Hong Tian let out a deep sigh, "Since you were born in chaos, why make it easy for yourselves. Your generation is hopeless."

  Hong Tian shook his head, somewhat disappointed, but also couldn't bear to blame Hong Renyi anymore. This generation had countless geniuses with exceptional talent, whether it was Hong Renyi, Xu Qingcheng, or other world's prodigies, all of whom had the possibility of becoming the master of the Divine Monument after a thousand years.

  Unfortunately, tragically, and regrettably, this generation has produced a Lin Huang who is utterly hopeless. Not only have the geniuses of this generation been completely overshadowed, but many great sages from countless realms, renowned for thousands of years, also feel despair and indignation.

  Bing Feng Jian Sheng was like that, leaving the Hong family with a flustered expression, feeling hopeless and not daring to believe that Lin Huang had actually gained the strength to enter the Divine Monument.

  "At this age, it's really all gone to the dogs."

  Hong Ying had no intention of eating the lollipop, squatting on the rooftop, watching Bing Feng Jian Sheng leave in a daze, his heart was also deeply bitter.

  A junior who has already risen to the top with a single step, making them extremely resentful. Now this junior has actually achieved what countless saints have dreamed of, becoming the master of the Divine Monument. This is truly an enormous irony.

  "What's wrong?! I'm not dead yet!"

  Hong Tian let out a cold snort and appeared beside Hong Ying, "Ren Yi has already been abandoned. Now the Hong family can only rely on you. Tomorrow, you will enter the ancestral temple for me. If you don't become a great sage, you're not allowed to come out!"

  Hong Tian's words were cold, Hong Ying took a deep breath, the careless air around her body was swept away, she nodded solemnly and seriously, "Ancestor, I understand."

  On the other hand, Bing Feng Jian Sheng returned to Zhongnan Daochang with a dispirited and dejected expression, only to see Zhongnan Jian Sheng sitting in the hall with an ashen face. "Trash! I'm not dead yet. Lin Huang wants to ride roughshod over me? It won't be that easy!"

  The Sword Saint of Zhongnan held his long sword in hand, laid it across his knees, closed his eyes and said, "I'll just wait here. Lin Huang, between us, we will eventually have to settle this once and for all."
