............
This round of preliminaries is coming soon, and the closer to the second round, the more news about various small islands on Tianhuo Island will spread.
The most talked about are the so-called nine masters in the Tianhuo Division, that is, the nine who were dragged to the eleventh round in the first battle. Of course, there are also news from other island divisions.
The overall level of the qualifiers is very high, and there are a lot of top players who have suddenly appeared.
Like Roulan, who is already very well-known and ranks in the top 30 on the ground martial arts list, not to mention. The newly emerging quasi-saint powerhouse such as Sirius, whose strength is shocking, is full of three in the four competition areas!
These people will undoubtedly make it through the second round, but I don't know if there will be a fierce battle between them in this second round to compete with each other for a place in the third round.
All sorts of gossip were flooded, and gambling games were born.
It's just that Lei Zhen didn't have the heart to pay attention to these at all.
Time flies, the night before the second round of qualifiers......
Lei Zhen was meditating in his room, waiting for the second round of preliminaries the next day, when he suddenly felt a slight fluctuation coming from the ground.
"What is this?" said Lei Zhen's eyes suddenly.
Although the monks did not understand the huge universe, they still studied the Shenwu Continent itself very thoroughly. It's normal for ordinary underground fluctuations like this, and that's a change in the topography of the earth's crust underground.
But Lei Zhen felt that there was something unusual about this underground fluctuation.
Although slight, the range is extremely wide, and it is very regular layer by layer and circle!
"It's not an earthquake, it's not a volcanic eruption. Those fluctuations should be haphazard, and it can't be so regular. Lei Zhen was interested, but he hadn't waited for him to observe more.
A loud bang exploded from afar!
Immediately after, the entire Tianhuo Island felt like it was being shaken, and it began to tremble violently!
Lei Zhen was taken aback, this shock came too quickly, too suddenly, too violently!
The whole island began to shake, and countless ground cracks!
The sound of houses collapsing, the roar of the earth's crust, and the screams of people spread all over the island in an instant!
Although it was the middle of the night, it was bustling outside.
Many houses were destroyed, and the monks in the inns, in the inns, in the inns, and even in some private houses ran out of the rooms, some flew in the air and looked around, some leaned over the ground to listen, and many more gathered in twos and threes, talking to each other and inquiring.
Most of the 36 islands on the Hellfire Peninsula are active volcanoes, and there are also visions of volcanic eruptions, which is not surprising to monks. But there has never been a precedent for an entire island to shake violently like this. Such a violent earthquake is simply the first time in thousands of years on the Hellfire Peninsula. At least in the national history records of the Yuan Huo God Kingdom, there is no precedent!
Many monks who were flying in mid-air flew high and could see far away, and said loudly in the air: "It's not just us! Earth Fire Island, Xuanhuo Island...... All the islands of the Hellfire Peninsula are experiencing earthquakes!"
"Oh my God, how is that possible?"
"Was it a volcanic eruption?"
"No, there's no eruption here, but on Hell Island...... It seems a little bit abnormal there. ”
Hell Island is the central island of the Hellfire Peninsula, located in the center of the eight islands of 'Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, Cosmic Flood Wilderness', the largest area, and the strange mountains and rocks, and there is the world-famous 'Hell Abyss' on the island, which is also the origin of the name Hellfire Peninsula.
Lei Zhen rushed to the street with Zhao Qingfeng in his arms, and dodged the houses that had collapsed by the earthquake with those monks who were also in the realm of Earth Martial Arts or even Yuan Martial Arts, as well as some large cracks in the ground.
The heavenly warriors flying in the sky were not affected by the earthquake, and they could also see from afar, and there were many discussions, which were extremely lively.
"There's a ghost fire on Hell Island!"
"Blue, that light is so weird! Looking at it from such a distance, it makes me feel hairy in my heart!"
"Look! Huanghua Zhendao! It's His Majesty Yuanhuo!"
"And the Vacuum Bliss Battleship! It's His Majesty Xuan Bing!"
"Looks like something is wrong!"
"It can't be that some demon against the sky was born, right?"
"Damn, will it affect tomorrow's game?"
The continuous earthquake continued to make noise for most of the night before it slowly stopped.
In the meantime, the strange blue light coming from the side of Hell Island almost illuminated the entire night!
Not to mention those Tianwu powerhouses, even if it is Lei Zhen, he can't guess what happened.
From the moment he first felt the underground fluctuations to the violent earthquake eruption, it was only a short second or two.
It came so suddenly that Lei Zhen couldn't read any more information from the underground fluctuations.
The demonic blue light afterwards was also something Lei Zhen had never seen before. It felt like the demonic aura of a powerful demon beast, but Lei Zhen knew that it was definitely not.
What kind of exaggerated power is it that can spread the demonic energy that envelops the entire Hellfire Peninsula in the dark night, and illuminate the entire dozens of islands? If it is said that this is the demonic energy of a certain demon beast, then this demon beast is too rebellious to the sky, and I am afraid that a single breath will be enough to destroy the entire Hellfire Peninsula! How can it be the turn of everyone to guess what is going on on this Heavenly Fire Island?
"When the sky fell, there was a tall man on top of it. Hehe, this should be what Yuan Huo and Xuan Bing are worried about. Lei Zhen can see it: "It's just that tomorrow's second round of preliminaries will probably be reimbursed." ”
Sure enough, early the next morning, the official monk of the Yuan Huo God Kingdom came to announce the news of the temporary cancellation of the second round of preliminaries, and the specific opening time was not determined for the time being, only allowing all participants to stay on the island for the time being, and at the same time, it was strictly forbidden for everyone to wait for Hell Island near the center.
The monk came and went in a hurry, which made many monks who wanted to find out what was going on sigh.
Not only ordinary monks, but even many big families couldn't find out the slightest rumor.
For three days, the entire island of Hell was cordoned off, and it was forbidden for anyone to wait to get close. Along with the entire Hellfire Peninsula on the periphery, it is now only allowed to enter but not leave.
A large number of troops of the Yuan Huo God Kingdom rushed to Hell Island in warships, looking at the posture, it was no less than being invaded by aliens!
Half of the buildings on Tianhuo Island were destroyed by the earthquake that night, and although there were tents and simple houses sent by the Yuan Huo God Kingdom soon, there were still many monks who could not find a place to live. With dignified martial arts and even Tianwu Zun, they are all figures with heads and faces in their respective hometowns, but at this time, they can only sleep on the street.
All kinds of rumors are also flying.
The most rumored is that there is a large spatial rift on Hell Island. Just like the original Shenwu Mountain, a large number of alien races emerged from the spatial cracks.
This statement is the most reliable among many versions, whether it is the violent earthquake that day or the demonic blue light that flashed in the sky, it is very similar to the situation during the invasion of Shenwu Mountain in the historical record. The only difference is that the entire island of Hell looks calm, and no fighting breaks out there at all.
Most of the large number of Yuanhuo troops mobilized only guarded around the island in warships, and only a very small number of elite troops who even started from Tianwu could enter the island.
The Yuan Fire Divine Kingdom, the Xuanbing Divine Kingdom, the Great Yuan Upper Kingdom, and the other six upper kingdoms, now it seems that only these eight countries are gathering in the center of the island. Others, such as ordinary clans and even small countries, and even some so-called super large families, were blocked by the army of the Yuan Huo God Kingdom on the outskirts of Hell Island......
Lei Zhen didn't stay on Tianhuo Island, the inn they stayed in had collapsed, and the temporary tent conditions arranged by the Yuanhuo Divine Kingdom were too poor, and it was really not suitable for Zhao Qingfeng to recuperate. So they took it to Xuanhuo Island, where they were on the Soviet side. Although the collapse of the houses there is even more impressive than that of Tianhuo Island, the residence of His Royal Highness the Prince of Dayuan is still a luxurious and magnificent house, and this privilege is still there.
Just asked about what happened on Hell Lake Island, even Su Fang, the great prince, didn't know anything.
"It may be related to the abyss of hell, or it may be that a new spatial rift has really appeared. A few years ago, I heard my father say that the space in this area is extremely unstable, after all, it is close to Shenwu Mountain. There was no war, no invasion of alien races, I guess it's because the spatial rift is new, and those alien races haven't been discovered in their world, right?"
The Hellfire Peninsula is right next door to Shenwu Mountain, no more than a few hundred miles away. And Shenwu Mountain, as the first and so far the only spatial rift on the continent, the alien invasion place, the unstable state of its space has long been an open fact on the entire continent.
Su Fang shook his head: "But these are just personal guesses, and they are probably far from the truth." ”
All sides were speculating, but there was no result in the end.
It's the qualifiers, and it's been dragged on.
Half a month.
According to the original schedule of the Divine Martial Talent Battle, it should already be the time for the main competition! After all, in more than half a month, the Graveyard of the Gods will be opened.
It would take fifty years for this place to be opened once due to the rules of the Heavenly Dao, and it would only be opened for less than a month. If the final top 500 places hadn't been finalized before this, would the God Emperor and them actually want to give up the opening of the Graveyard of the Gods this time?
The Tianwu geniuses who came to participate in the competition were very worried, ninety percent of them were probably only one chance to enter the cemetery of the gods once in their lives. Suppress the realm for another fifty years? Wait for the next Shenwu Genius Battle? Don't say that you can't suppress it, even if you can really suppress it, but that's a full fifty years, how many lifetimes does a Tianwu powerhouse have in total? Just waste it in vain, who wants to?
Even, even many Shenwu Realm powerhouses, and even the heads of major families, began to have such worries.
Only Lei Zhen is not in a hurry about this at all.
Because, probably only he, who used to be a demigod, understands that in this world, there is absolutely nothing that can bring more temptation to Yuanhuo and Xuanbing than the Graveyard of the Gods. Even if Hell Island really cracked a spatial rift, there would really be an alien invasion, and even the entire Shenwu Continent would be destroyed! Those two would definitely not easily give up the quota of the Graveyard of the Gods once in fifty years.
It's just that the battle of the Divine Martial Genius is a matter of time, but the so-called large-scale auction ...... That was Zhao Qingfeng's lifesaver, and if he said no, it would be gone...... Lei Zhen was also drunk, and he could only say that Lao Zhao's luck was really bad! Of course, his luck was also bad enough. He also said that at that large-scale auction, he would strive to get some top-level elixir spirit ore to assist in cultivation and see if there was any effect.
Fortunately, after learning about Zhao Qingfeng's specific situation, the Su side thought of a way. said that Zhao Qingfeng was sent directly to the Great Yuan Imperial Capital, and Prince Su wanted to help him get a five-grade healing elixir in the Great Yuan Imperial Capital, which was really not a big deal.
"His condition will drag on for at least a month or two, and there is still a chance of recovery, and when the blockade of the Hellfire Peninsula is lifted, I will arrange for someone to leave immediately. Brother Lei, don't worry, this matter is on me!"
It seems that this is the only way to go.
After quietly waiting for four or five days, the blockade of Hell Island was finally lifted, and the envoys of the Yuan Huo God Emperor immediately went to each island and each competition area to announce the event.
"The second round of qualifiers will be cancelled directly!"
"All qualifiers in the eight regions will take the final test at the same time! Those who pass will be able to participate in the main competition three days later!"
Even the time for the main match was suppressed, only three days after the preliminaries.
As soon as this news came out, it was basically jubilation.
Skip the elimination of the second round, which gives those who have a low chance of passing the whole round of qualifiers also have a chance.
Such a decision was made probably because there was too much time delayed before, and according to the regular schedule, the opening time of the Graveyard of the Gods would definitely be missed.
Lei Zhen was not surprised at all, but there were eight divisions, and there were 40,000 preliminary finalists in each division. This is 320,000 Heavenly Martial Powerhouses, competing at the same time, and the winner will be decided in one day, which is not an easy thing to arrange.
Everyone is speculating about all the possible ways of playing, but the official has not revealed a single star.
Early the next morning, all the participants in the eight major regions were brought onto the participating boats.
The ultimate preliminaries of the Shenwu Genius Battle have officially begun!
