The pressure he felt was large, but the current gravity was nowhere near Long Chen’s limit. With his tough body, he would have to walk double the distance to reach his limit.

That was why Zhao Wuji was no match for him.

Long Chen quickened his pace once more at this critical juncture. The audience watched in awe as he quickly surpassed Zhao Wuji. Within a short period of time, the gap between them widened until it was impossible for Zhao Wuji to catch up!

Zhao Wuji’s eyes reddened with rage when he saw the distance between himself and Long Chen growing.

That’s impossible! He isn’t even that strong! That’s impossible! I must fight harder; maybe there is still a chance to surpass him! Zhao Wuji roared once more, and his features contorted. Panting heavily, he ran with all his might!

Unfortunately, he had overestimated his own strength. While he could run very fast, he was shocked to find that he was unable to withstand the gravity anymore. The large pressure felt like a mountain squashing him. He collapsed face-down, and blood sprayed out of his mouth!

“Ah!” No matter how hard Zhao Wuji fought, he could not stand up again. He could not believe that he had lost! And he did not even know who he had lost to!

Who the hell is that guy? How dare he rob me of my glory!? I promised my uncle I would win all three rounds! This is just the first round, and I have lost just like that? Zhao Wuji refused to believe the truth. He continued to struggle, and green veins popped out of his skin.

He suddenly saw a pair of feet appear in front of him. It was the Beast Warrior covered in red scales. Long Chen’s blood-red eyes were fixed coldly on him.

And Zhao Wuji was lying face-down.

The cold glare was an endless humiliation to Zhao Wuji, and his lungs were about to explode from rage. He glared at Long Chen coldly, about to insult him, but the strong gravity stopped him from even opening his mouth to speak.

In contrast, Long Chen stood in front of him and walked effortlessly.

Long Chen looked up because he saw Demon General Typhoon, who was standing behind Zhao Wuji. Demon General Typhoon was eyeing Long Chen carefully with his black eyes and he nodded. “It looks like your body tempering technique is an advanced Heaven-tier! Not bad! Looks like you’ll be the champion of the first round!”

“Thank you for your praise,” said Long Chen with a smile, nodding back. His smile looked creepy in his dragon form.

Demon General Typhoon nodded, and his voice spread across the whole Black Prison.

“The first round has ended. Ancient Demon Domain disciples, record the top seven thousand participants’ distance. All the disciples who have crossed the minimum threshold may enter the next round, while the rest will be eliminated!”

He declared the end of the first round.

“Cultivators who have successfully progressed, follow me into the Ancient Demon Domain. There, you will have one hour to rest. Then you will enter the second round!”

“Yes!” answered those who had qualified and still had enough strength to speak.

The arrangements were made swiftly, and everyone started to turn around. Those who could no longer walk were carried away. The Ancient Demon Domain had many disciples present, so all eighty thousand people quickly exited the Ancient Demon Domain. Over seventy thousand of them were feeling dejected because they had been disqualified!

Disqualification also meant that their dream of many years had been dashed.

“Let’s go. We failed, and we won’t get another chance.”

“Entering the Ancient Demon Domain is just a dream after all. Normal peasants like us only belong outside.”

“Yeah. Minor figures like us should not even dream of such things!”

“Seven thousand out of eighty thousand! Rules like that are too cruel!”

Of course, there were also some who were rubbing their palms or clenching their fists with determination. They were prepared to come again next year, since the Ancient Demon Domain qualifiers were an annual affair.

When Long Chen had just exited the Black Prison, he quickly became the focal point of attention. Everyone knew that he was the crazy cultivator who had surpassed Zhao Wuji. His personal data showed that he was merely at the First Passage Stage.

Being able to achieve such results meant that he truly was a prodigy.

Everyone had opinions to discuss.

“That brat is only at the First Passage Stage, but I heard he has already cultivated an advanced Heaven-tier body tempering technique! That’s insane!”

“Indeed. With such a tough body, this test was basically rigged in his favor. However, I don’t think he’s going to have it easy in the next two rounds. The second and third rounds are not tests of toughness!”

“Also, didn’t you see his age? He’s at least seventeen or eighteen, right? He’s only at the First Passage Stage, but Zhao Wuji is at the Fourth Passage Stage at just fourteen. That’s a gigantic gap. Maybe that Jiang Cheng guy can beat Zhao Wuji now in terms of physical toughness, but later, he will be left far behind.”

“That’s true!”

The people around all nodded, as they felt that it made sense.

The most outstanding people of this qualifier event were young but had high cultivation levels!

Far away, Zhao Wuji glared coldly at Long Chen.

That brat! Isn’t he the guy that Ma Liu said beat him up? When you hit a dog, you’ve got to see who the master is! Not only did he not show me respect, he humiliated me too! That’s unacceptable! He’s only at the First Passage Stage; how dare he showboat in front of me, Zhao Wuji!

The more he thought about him, the angrier he became, especially when he saw that Long Chen was chatting happily with Huangfu Qi as if nothing had happened. This made him rage even more!

Jiang Cheng? Your name is Jiang Cheng? You just wait and see! This is just the first round. You had an unfair advantage because of your body tempering technique, but after this, you’ll learn what a true master is!

Obviously, Long Chen sensed the venomous glare from Zhao Wuji.

But he did not care.

A fourteen-year-old brat was not enough to make him nervous.

“Big Brother, you were awesome just now!” Stars twinkled in Huangfu Qi’s eyes. It had taken him no effort to do something she couldn’t do. Previously, she was concerned that she would be separated from Xiaolang because Long Chen would not enter Ancient Demon Domain, but now she realized that there was no need to worry.

Long Chen smiled shyly.

The remaining seven thousand people had started to enter the Ancient Demon Domain under the disciples’ instructions.

While the Black Prison took up part of the entrance, there was another path that led to the true Ancient Demon Domain. After they passed through the narrow pathway, they found themselves in a vast plaza. This plaza’s ground was made out of black crystal. Although it was black, it was shiny and translucent, creating an astounding effect as it reflected the light.

The square was easily large enough to hold seven thousand people.

Long Chen looked up and saw seven gigantic pillars. Every black pillar was one and a half meters in radius, and about twenty meters tall. They looked like seven heaven-bearing pillars erected in the square.

Many carvings had been made on the surface of the pillars, and Long Chen guessed that the second test involved these pillars!

Seven thousand people stood in the center of the square.

In front, Demon General Typhoon levitated mid-air and announced loudly, “You all have forty-five minutes left to rest. During this time, we will distribute the rewards for the first round! When there are fifteen minutes left, we will tell you the second round’s rules and the rewards!”

“Yes!” replied the crowd.

It was time to distribute the Heavenly Passage Pills. Every person would receive at least twenty Heavenly Passage Pills. Huangfu Qi received two thousand for being in third place, but she roughly stuffed them somewhere without even looking at them. It was clear that she did not care about Heavenly Passage Pills at all.

Drawing countless envious looks, Long Chen received ten thousand Heavenly Passage Pills. He felt very good about getting so many pills for doing almost nothing. After he put them away, he suddenly felt a numbing sensation on his scalp because there were many masters eyeing him up and down.

He looked up and saw that behind the seven pillars were over a dozen people dressed like Demon General Typhoon, their glares sweeping coldly across the crowd. When he received the ten thousand pills, everyone looked at him.

Those people must be the twenty-eight Demon Generals. All of them have cleared their heavenly meridian points and reached the Ninth Passage Stage. They are extremely powerful. Long Chen was privately startled. He knew that their power was far beyond his reach at his current level.

Every single one of them could easily kill him.

Masters were as common as clouds here! This was the Ancient Demon Domain!
