1195: Chapter 392 Monarch’s Arrival 1195: Chapter 392 Monarch’s Arrival July 11th.
The vast and mighty Long River, originating from the lands of the utmost west, surged all the way to this place.
Passing through the Tianma Plateau, carrying silt and sand along, creating this turbid segnt of the river.
The people on the Guanhe Platform had watched with their own eyes as the water level of the Yellow River rose day by day.
The ancient and robust Suan Ni Bridge, grand and broad, could accommodate dozens of chariots running side by side.
On normal days, it spanned the abyss like a sky bridge, with the river flowing gently dozens of feet below it.
But now, the water level was nearly reaching the bridge deck.
The raging waves continuously slamd against the bridge body, emitting thunderous roars, as if a terrifying beast was roaring day and night.
Even the sturdy Suan Ni Bridge had a sense of imminent danger as if it could be severed at any mont.
Those who have not witnessed it themselves could hardly imagine this scene.
More constant than the rushing river was ti.
The day when the Yellow River Gathering officially began.
All the prodigies participating in the competition and all the spectators gathered together, entering the Pillar of the Six Unions.
The ancient array, through generations of repair and enhancent, still functioned effectively today.
On the circular stands, there were nearly limitless seats, already filled with a dense crowd of people, and still, there was considerable room left.
Jiang Wang, Zhongxuan Zun, and Ji Zhaonan, representing Qi Country as its prodigies, were seated in the very front of the stands.
Only Cao Jie accompanied them to their seats.
Two teams of Heavenly Cover Soldiers, serving as a ceremonial guard, surrounded the periter.
Zhongxuan Sheng, Li Longchuan, and the others were seated in a spectator area further back.
Naturally, they were not in the sa area as Wang Yiwu.
“Today’s main competition may start with the Outer Building first,” Cao Jie said in advance.
“Zhongxuan Zun, be prepared.”
Jiang Wang understood why this was happening.
Yesterday’s unrestricted selection competition for those under thirty was fiercely contested.
The first slot for the main competition was claid by Song Country’s prodigy, renowned as “Master of the Six Arts,” Chen Si Wu.
The issue was with the second slot for the main competition.
It wasn’t that there was any trickery in this selection.
It was mainly because it took… too long.
The final selection began in the afternoon; the match involving Chen Si Wu ended within the duration of an incense stick.
But the other match continued until this morning, and the main competition was about to start before the victor was determined.
Godly cultivators, with their Golden Fra and Jade Marrow, have life vitality far surpassing ordinary beings, and their defensive power is terrifying.
If matched against two equals who are cautious and steady, it wouldn’t be unusual for the fight to last several days and nights.
Zhang Xun of Dan Country ground on for six hours, finally securing a slender advantage to overwhelm his opponent.
Had they not needed to prepare for the main competition imdiately, the decision might have been forcefully made if they didn’t conclude; that selection could have still been ongoing.
Thus, Dan Country’s Inner Mansion and the unrestricted competition for those under thirty both made it to the main competition, especially the latter, which stirred the people of Dan Country.
How rare is a Godly cultivator under thirty?
Not only did Dan Country produce one, but he also made it to the main competition of the Yellow River Gathering, regarded as one of the eight strongest young prodigies in the world.
Such a level of prodigy, hailed as a True Man in prospect, would not face any doubts.
For Dan Country, which faces constant pressure from Qin Country, this was certainly exhilarating news.
The sorrow of the Valley Plain still lingers there today.
If Dan Country does not strengthen itself, how can it continue?
Undoubtedly, Zhang Xun and Xiao Shu gave them hope; these two prodigies also undoubtedly beca the pride of Dan Country.
However, the consequence of the under-thirty unrestricted competition dragging into today…
Resulted in the final slot of the Inner Mansion not being determined.
According to traditional rules, the Inner Mansion, Outer Building, and the unrestricted competition for those under thirty must have their lists determined separately.
It was planned that once Zhang Xun and others finished, the selection for Bai Yuxia and others would comnce.
But since the forr dragged on to this morning, the latter ran out of ti.
As the final list for the Inner Mansion could not be determined, naturally, it could not be the first to begin the main competition.
Fortunately, such situations had precedent; it rely requires adjusting the order of the main competition and does not affect the Yellow River Gathering itself.
In previous sessions, it was not rare for the emperors, on a whim, to let the unrestricted competition for those under thirty start first.
Regarding Cao Jie’s reminder, Zhongxuan Zun just smiled, “My preparations were completed in Linzi.”
Cao Jie also smiled, “Then I shall wait and see.”
Not just Cao Jie,
Jiang Wang himself was imnsely looking forward to Zhongxuan Zun’s battle.
He was eager to see if this gentleman in white, who had outshone all his peers, could still dominate at the Guanhe Platform, where the prodigies of various countries gathered.
At this mont, they were comrades-in-arms.
He also regarded Zhongxuan Zun as a future opponent.
Ji Zhaonan sat to Jiang Wang’s left, expressionless, quietly watching the Arena.
People in the stands were discussing and boiling with excitent for the prodigies they were close to.
And then, at a certain mont, the rectangular plane surrounded by the Pillar of Six Unions, that elusive and indistinct plane, suddenly fixed itself, becoming clear, clean, and transparent.
Like enormous mirrors pieced together, forming a cylindrical curtain wall that reaches from heaven to earth.
Boom!
The roaring and surging sound rolled in.
Jiang Wang looked up and saw on this “mirror curtain”, a vast and turbulent Yellow River.
The mirrors around reflected the Long River beneath the Guanhe Platform!
The water level was rising crazily.
The great river that spans tens of thousands of miles, like a giant dragon rolling over!
The “Land Hanhai” seed to be overturning, threatening to subrge the world it had nurtured for countless years,
a feeling of devouring everything, of world destruction, which one couldn’t understand without witnessing it.
Even those with transcendent powers felt deep helplessness and confusion in front of such a scene!
Suan Ni Bridge and Ba Xia Bridge, the powerful ancient bridges that secure both ends of the Yellow River’s segnt, were finally subrged by the roaring Yellow River.
The bridge deck was level with the water surface!
At that mont, all the mirrors disappeared.
Behind the stands was now empty.
The distant sky, flowing clouds, the roaring turbid waves of the Yellow River…
All spread out in the field of view.
People sitting in the stands seed to feel the river breeze coming from all directions.
The six towering ancient stone pillars have six facets.
They were like “windows” frad between heaven and earth by the Pillar of Six Unions, with all the distinguished guests, observant viewers, and soldiers from various countries inside; outside the window was the entire current world.
Then Jiang Wang saw that, right in front of him, in the corresponding “window” that held an entire world, a giant figure appeared.
What an enormous and colossal figure it was?
Almost reaching from the ground to the sky, level with the Pillar of Six Unions!
Even with all his eyesight, Jiang Wang could only see half of the body.
Only seeing the purple Dragon Robe that hung like a Heavenly Curtain.
Cao Jie imdiately stood up, and so did Jiang Wang, Zhongxuan Zun, and Ji Zhaonan, all standing up to bow deeply in salutation: “Emperor!”
Not just the one “window” they faced, in all six “windows” surrounded by the Pillar of Six Unions, such a vast figure appeared.
Unable to see their majestic faces, only a corner of their dragon robes could be seen.
They were of red, a mix of red, white, and blue, dark, a mix of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple with thirteen stars, and sky-blue colors.
Representing Emperor Chu, Jing Emperor, Qin Emperor, Jing Emperor, and Emperor Mu respectively.
Everyone in the entire Pillar of Six Unions stood up.
Whether they were governed by these six great beings or not, all bowed.
All together saluted—
“Emperor!”
Space seed to freeze, and the angry roar of the Yellow River also ceased.
An ancient force was reviving.
That mysterious and ancient aura, made everyone present feel an impulse to worship reverently.
As if the ancient tis traveled through the present.
And the six supre Emperors, controllers of the highest power in the current world, had arrived!
