Wisps upon wisps of grand dao aura gushed out from the youth. He was like a peerless sword immortal with an intimidating sharpness even when sitting.

The errand boy said tremblingly, “Please don’t be angry, that person can never be your match.”

Despite his child-like appearance, the errand boy was in fact an old monster who had cultivated for over a thousand years, a half-step King expert of the Golden Hou Clan.

But he regarded himself as a mere servant in front of the youth.

Because the latter was Yun Qingbai, the supreme figure who was considered the strongest person under the King stage in the Ancient Wasteland Domain ten years ago!

“What do you know about this person?” Yun Qingbai retracted his aura, and his expression became calm again.

“I only know that he is from the lower world. His origin is still a mystery. Our clan sent someone to investigate him, but for some reason, the passageway from our clan to the lower world had been broken apart, so specific details remain unclear,” replied the errand boy hurriedly.

“The lower world?” Yun Qingbai sank into thought.

He recalled the past event of that year with the Lin Clan…

Could it be…

An imperceptive frown flashed on his face.

Right at this moment, the errand boy said, “According to the news we’ve gathered, he grasps an extremely terrifying grand dao that bears a striking resemblance to a certain grand dao power that you have mastered, milord…”

Yun Qingbai categorically cut him off, “Impossible!”

His voice was icy and overflowed with murderous intent, causing the errand boy to be paralyzed and almost fall to the ground.

Seeing this, Yun Qingbai knew that he had just lost his cool and could not help but laugh to himself.

What is wrong with me? Can it be that I’m still hung up on what happened that year?

He then took a deep breath. His dao heart was as clear and still as a sword, no longer affected by any distracting thoughts.

“I heard that in order to back Lin Xun up, a woman came up our mountain and forced our clan sect to hand over a pot of Spirit Condensation Powder?” asked Yun Qingbai.

“Yes.” The errand boy lowered his head.

“She also said that if it was a peer-to-peer fight, she would not intervene in his matter?”

“Yes.”

Yun Qingbai abruptly rose. Standing under the ancient divine tree, he gazed into the distance. “The great era is coming, and the Genius Gold Rankings will start to be revealed. No matter who Lin Xun is, I shall end his life to wash away the shame that our clan has suffered!”

“With your lordship's presence, this Demon God Lin will surely die!” said the errand boy as his heart trembled with excitement.

“After nearly ten years of secluded cultivation, I wonder if the world has forgotten me. I heard that many people think I’m no longer unrivaled and can’t even compare to some ancient geniuses. Now that I am out, it’s time to give them a surprise!”

Yun Qingbai stood there with his hands behind his back like he was the only one in the world, his clothes whiter than snow. Even in such a casual posture, he possessed an otherworldly elegance.

“Your lordship’s heavenly martial talent rivals the saints from the ancient era. Since you were already peerless among your generation ten years ago, you can definitely sweep away all enemies now!” The errand boy’s voice was fervent with admiration.

Yun Qingbai remained indifferent.

His dao had been honed to extreme perfection, and the ten years of seclusion had allowed him to make up for his shortcomings and cultivate an invincible aura.

He was already so powerful that he no longer needed recognition from others!

“Go and gather information about the ancient freaks. The current generation is no longer worthy of my attention. We need to focus on those monsters who have been dormant for years waiting to come out when the great era arrives,” Yun Qingbai commanded.

“Milord, do you intend to…?” asked the errand boy expectantly.

Yun Qingbai’s eyes shone with a swirling luster. “Doesn’t the world think that I, Yun Qingbai, can’t be compared to those ancient freaks? When the great era comes and it’s time to compete for the Genius Gold Rankings, I will cut down some of those characters first!”

Hearing this, the errand boy’s face was full of admiration.

He wasn’t just flattering Yun Qingbai. He was well aware that the latter’s terrifying power, and the ten years of seclusion had only made him stronger than ever!

“Of course, don’t forget that man Lin Xun,” said Yun Qingbai on the spur of the moment as he inexplicably thought of the young man he had never met before.

The errand boy bowed in response and left.

……

Several days later.

While the world was still discussing the mysterious woman’s triumph over the six Saints, the Divine Apparatus Pavilion of Hidden Holy Lands released an announcement ––

The great era was arriving in three months!

The shocking announcement stirred up a storm across the four great worlds and threw the entire Ancient Wasteland Domain into an uproar, instantly becoming the new focus of cultivators everywhere.

This great era that had long been speculated was finally coming. Multitudes had eagerly waited for it.

“A battle for supremacy among tens of thousands of heaven prides is about to kick off. I wonder how many will be lucky enough to seize the great opportunities and forge their path to the Supreme King stage in one fell swoop!” Many cultivators were excited.

“It’s finally here. This will be an unprecedented opportunity that likely won’t ever come again, so we must seize it!” The various ancient dao lineages began preparing for the arrival of the great era.

“It’s a pity that the great era will come early this time. It means the Four World Star Ranking Contest won’t be able to take place as scheduled,” many also lamented.

The Four World Star Ranking Contest was supposed to be held in half a year. Many supreme heaven prides had been preparing for it, hoping to become absolute apex giants.

However, it was obviously for nothing as the looming great era had disrupted everything.

“It’s fine. Compared to the Four World Star Ranking Contest, the battle for the Genius Gold Rankings is much more anticipated!”

“Exactly. Only after being named in the Genius Gold Rankings can one be called a real heaven pride, and the ones who fail will have that title removed!”

“Heaven pride, the proud children of heaven, these titles are indeed not something that just anyone deserves to bear.”

These kinds of discussions resounded in various areas of the Ancient Wasteland Domain and only intensified with time!

This was the influence of the great era which concerned the future trend and structure of the entire Ancient Wasteland Domain. All ancient dao lineages and cultivators in the world were destined to be affected.

Consequently, who would be able to rise to excellence in the great era was undoubtedly the most concerning topic for every cultivator!

……

Chaos Demon Obliteration Land, one of the Five Forbidden Lands in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

In a bloody battlefield, demonic beasts and resentful souls rampaged. The atmosphere was bone-chilling like a ghostdom.

However, there was one area of a thousand-mile radius that was clean and empty, and no demonic beasts or vengeful souls dared to trespass.

A black-robed young man was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his frosty white hair hanging down, cradling a sharp, handsome face.

Whoosh!

As a stream of light speedily approached, the black-robed young man suddenly opened his eyes and caught it at a lightning speed. When he opened his hand, there was a piece of colorful jade talisman sitting on his palm.

He crushed the jade talisman, and an old voice rang out, “The great era arrives in three months. It is time for you to return, Mohe.”

The great era!

The young man stood up. From his lofty figure, a sky-piercing black light gushed out and blanketed the battlefield in an eternal night.

The demonic beasts and vengeful souls instantly wailed in fright, some shivering, some fleeing wildly.

“It’s actually early this time. Luckily I’ve been honing myself in the Chaos Demon Obliteration Land these past several days and cultivated my Great Return Truth Dao to the Dao Truth stage. I am now fearless in the incoming battle of the great era!”

Swish!

He tread the air and left without hesitation.

On this day, Ye Mohe of Origin God Sect, a veteran absolute apex giant, walked out of Chaos Demon Obliteration Land.

……

Complete Void Star Road, one of the Five Forbidden Lands in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

In the vast void, stars that were like dense chess pieces twinkled brightly, outlining an endless, winding starry road.

This was a starry sky in a secret realm, an ancient forbidden land notorious for its bad omens.

At the moment, a gray-robed youth was trekking on it. His clothes were ragged, and there were injuries all over his body, making him look unusually miserable.

However, his expression was as resolute as a rock, and he did not waver for a second.

His aura was overwhelmingly powerful, like a long-tempered sword.

Buzz!

A bead on his wrist suddenly lit up, emitting a gentle and mellow voice: “Hengzhen, the great era is fast approaching. Time to return.”

The youth was stunned. He then exhaled a long breath and murmured, “It’s already starting? Good, I’ve been waiting for too long…”

Rustle~

The wounds all over his body started healing at an astonishing speed, and then, a layer of dead skin peeled off, revealing smooth and clear skin like that of a newborn.

In that same second, a lofty, majestic aura spread out from him and startled the starry sky.

On this day, the successor of Moon Sun Sacred Palace, Mi Hengzhen, returned from Complete Void Star Road.

……

On this very day, similar scenes were occurring in various places.

Some supreme figures who were either hibernating, in seclusion, or in the process of honing their skills stopped whatever they were doing and started preparing for the arrival of the great era!

In the Great One Sect, Wang Xuanyu came out from his seclusion of years.

Clad in a deep-black dao robe, he was handsome, but his demeanor was lazy as he walked out of the seclusion place with a yawn, unobtrusive like a random passerby.

However, along his path, all the disciples of the sect who saw him stopped what they were doing and bowed with impeccable reverence in their expressions.

……

In Spirit Treasure Holy Land, Yan Zhanqiu stood alone on the top of a mountain looking out at the sea of clouds. His sleeves fluttered, and mist surrounded him like an exiled immortal.

“The great era is coming. Whether or not Junior Sister Jingxuan will hate me for it, I will abolish you. The Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations shall not be in the hands of an outsider!” he murmured expressionlessly.

Ji Xingyao of Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms, sword saint heir Luo Jia of Miluo Palace in the Earth Emperor World, and saint descendant Shun Baixuan of the Shun Clan…

Different dao lineages throughout the Ancient Wasteland Domain all started operating.

In addition to them, there were also movements in various hidden sacred lands and unknown secret realms.

With the arrival of the great era, even ancient monsters who had been in hibernation for ages had also started to appear!
