Chapter 495 First!

After a long flight of about the time it takes to burn an incense stick, Qin Jun and his companions finally caught sight of the Observing Heaven Peak.

The Observing Heaven Peak stood like a towering pillar on the horizon. Looking up, it seemed to stretch into the depths of the starry sky, presenting a magnificent sight.

Yang Jian and Jinchangzi followed a few hundred meters behind. As soon as they saw the Observing Heaven Peak, they furrowed their brows.

"Do you feel it?" Yang Jian asked in a deep voice.

Jinchangzi nodded, his face solemn, murmuring, "The aura is so strong!"

With their divine senses, even from a distance, they could sense the terrifying aura emanating from the Observing Heaven Peak.

Yang Jian licked his lips and smiled, "It looks like we're in for another fierce battle!"

Jinchangzi smiled bitterly. One was a battle maniac, the other a troublemaker. They were truly a perfect match.

Soon, Qin Jun and the other five hundred participants swiftly flew towards the peak of the Observing Heaven Peak. The speed was so fast that the powerful wind pressure made even these geniuses of the earthly immortal realm uncomfortable. If their cultivation were weaker, they would probably have been crushed by the wind pressure.

At this moment, Qin Jun kept assessing the other participants, calculating if there were any left that he hadn't challenged. After scanning twice, he confirmed that he had challenged everyone except for Jin Wu Hui.

"Jin Wu Hui is my person. Can I ignore him?" Qin Jun asked helplessly in his mind. He had sparred with all the geniuses from the Southern Domain he led, but he had overlooked Jin Wu Hui.

"Yes," the system replied, making Qin Jun breathe a sigh of relief.

"Then why hasn't it prompted the completion of the task?" Qin Jun asked eagerly.

"The Observing Heaven Assembly is not over yet."

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun's brows furrowed tightly.

Could it be that there were still several rounds of assessments?

At this moment, he suddenly saw a towering, massive palace appear above. Although its exterior was not magnificent, and even somewhat dilapidated, a vast and ancient aura swept over them, evoking a sense of awe.

The participants landed in front of the palace, and the power of the boundary spirit also dissipated.

The steps were covered in dust, and the palace, in ruins, seemed like a relic. It was far from the ground, as if one could reach out and pluck the stars.

Yang Jian and Jinchangzi quickly came to Qin Jun's side. Jinchangzi whispered, "Your Majesty, be careful."

"Hmm?" Qin Jun raised his eyebrows, seeing Jinchangzi's serious expression, indicating that there were probably formidable individuals within the Observing Heaven Peak.

At this time, the geniuses from the Southern Domain began to gather around Qin Jun, and participants from other domains also started to group together.

Upon closer inspection, the Southern Domain surprisingly had the largest number of people, with a total of thirty-nine survivors.

The numbers from other domains varied, with thirty-six survivors from the Eastern Flame Domain, thirty-three from the Black Demon Domain, and the smallest domain had only three people, looking rather pitiful.

Qin Jun counted and found that there were forty-two domains in total.

Several black law enforcers hovered above the palace, motionless like statues, exuding a chilling and terrifying aura.

"Now, the ranking of luck is about to begin!"

The indifferent voice rang out again, and Qin Jun couldn't help but speculate whether the black law enforcers were actually the boundary spirits.

At the same time, a light screen appeared above the heads of the participants, displaying names from bottom to top, with the names growing larger as they ascended.

Qin Jun was curious about his own ranking. At the very least, he should be in the top three. The Eastern Extreme and Little Demon Lord, one dead and the other injured, couldn't possibly have more luck than him.

The rankings were revealed quickly, and the names of the Southern Domain geniuses were relatively low. Anlan was at three hundred and thirty, Qixie at three hundred and nineteen, and Zhaoyun at two hundred and ninety-six. Beyond that, only Qin Jun and Jin Wu Hui had not yet appeared.

"Ah! It's embarrassing..."

"Don't think like that. There were at least tens of thousands of participants in the Observing Heaven Assembly. It's already good to be in the top five hundred."

"Come on, it's all thanks to His Majesty's protection. In His Majesty's words, we completely won without any effort."

"I wonder how many ranks His Majesty will get."

The geniuses from the Southern Domain were discussing fervently. After the Observing Heaven Assembly, they all admired Qin Jun to the utmost. In the future, anyone who dared to disrespect Qin Jun, they would definitely speak out.

Soon, the rankings reached the top one hundred.

Qiu Feihai from the Southern Sea reached ninety-seventh place, the demonic genius Qin Jun encountered at the Observing Heaven Assembly, who was repelled by Xuan Qing's Rulai Buddha Palm.

Xuan Qing ranked seventy-eighth. If it weren't for Qin Jun's torment, he could have climbed even higher.

The rest were all Qin Jun's defeated subordinates, so he didn't pay much attention.

The rankings quickly reached the top ten.

Jin Wu Hui ranked ninth, which surprised Qin Jun. Without his participation, the Observing Heaven Assembly would probably have been Jin Wu Hui's stage to shine.

The top five...

The top three!

Second place, Little Demon Lord.

First place, Emperor Qin.

Participation in the Observing Heaven Assembly didn't necessarily require using one's real name, and Qin Jun used the name of Emperor Qin.

All eyes turned to Qin Jun, including those of the Little Demon Lord and Xuan Qing.

This result both shocked and didn't surprise them.

Qin Jun raised his eyebrows. Was there a reward for this ranking?

Just then, the black law enforcers quickly merged into one, eventually forming a mass of black mist that swirled in the starry sky, finally forming a huge, terrifying face.

"The Observing Heaven Assembly is officially over. Now you have two choices: leave the Observing Heaven Realm directly, or enter the Divine Temple."

The boundary spirit's tone was cold and indifferent, matching its terrifying black mist face, making people feel uneasy.

Enter the Divine Temple?

Many participants suddenly became short of breath. This was a great opportunity to leap to a higher level!

"I choose to leave!"

The Little Demon Lord was the first to speak, his face turning dark and purple, trembling all over, clearly on the verge of collapse.

Qin Jun was amazed and couldn't believe that this kid, who had been injured by the deadly Extinction Blade, could still hold on until now.

Well, since he was so lucky, Qin Jun decided not to kill him.

With the lead of the little demon lord, soon others chose to withdraw, including Xuan Qing. As soon as they spoke, they disappeared into thin air, probably sent out by the boundary spirit.

"Ding! Side quest completed - Destroy the boundary spirit of the Observation Heaven Realm! Host's level increased by one, and gained a random draw, and unlocked a new function! At the same time, the host will be in a hostile relationship with the temple!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for breaking through the second level of the Earth Immortal Realm!"

Two consecutive system prompts sounded in Qin Jun's mind, and in an instant, a strange and warm heat flowed through his bones and muscles, and his momentum soared.

The surrounding participants all gasped. Did he just break through?

Is there no justice left in the world?

He was already ridiculously strong, and now he actually broke through right in front of their eyes. Is he trying to force them to death?

Feeling the envy and jealousy of the participants, Qin Jun raised his head and chest, with an attitude that made people want to slap him. But they could only think about it, as Qin Jun's previous performance had already scared them.

At this moment, Qin Jun suddenly felt a murderous intent. He looked up and found the boundary spirit gazing at him faintly, which would definitely make an ordinary person shiver in fear.

End of Chapter 3!
