Chapter 2463 - 2463 Failure

2463 Failure

With just one sentence, he had decisively chosen the High Priest!

Even Fan Yunxiao and the others couldn’t recover for a long time.

In fact, it wasn’t that no one had discussed this question in the past 10,000 years.

The former High Priest and the Second Priest had betrayed the Divine Master and almost destroyed the entire Fantasy Divine Hall. Naturally, they couldn’t continue to take on this responsibility.

After the Divine Master calmed down the chaos back then, he re-selected 13 deities. However, there was no newcomer to the priest position for a long time.

Everyone thought that the Divine Master was no longer willing to choose a priest after being betrayed. Therefore, for many years, no one had mentioned this publicly.

Who knew that the Divine Master would actually announce that this seat was reserved for Jun Jiuqing?!

As long as he ascended to the heavens and broke through to become a deity, the position of High Priest would really be at his fingertips!

Putting everything else aside, there was no doubt about Jun Jiuqing’s talent—he was almost destined to succeed. In other words, he was determined to get the position of High Priest!

For a moment, even the deities couldn’t help but feel a little uncomfortable.

One had to know that the High Priest was an existence even more noble than a deity. Even the First Deity couldn’t compare to him.

Although they had long known that Jun Jiuqing’s background was extraordinary and that he was deeply taken care of by the Divine Master, this matter was still a little sudden…

Chu Liuyue frowned.

Jun Jiuqing’s expression was very calm, as if he wasn’t surprised. In fact… he seemed to feel that it was only right.

Where did he get his confidence from?

As if sensing her gaze, Jun Jiuqing suddenly looked over. His eyes flickered, and he glanced at her ambiguously before quickly looking away.

Chu Liuyue couldn’t describe that feeling. In short, she still felt that it was very strange.

At this moment, there was another person whose emotions were also fluctuating greatly—Nan Jinshu.

After hearing the Divine Master’s promise to Jun Jiuqing, his heart beat much faster.

Others might not know the reason, but he knew. Back then, the shocking chaos in the Fantasy Divine Hall actually lasted for a long time. Furthermore, it directly conquered the God Residence Realm.

In other words, the battle of the gods at the God-Killing Tumulus! Countless true gods and legendary warriors participated in that battle, and there were countless casualties. Even after 10,000 years, there was still a strong smell of killing and blood there.

At that time, the two ancestors of the Yi family and the Nan family were deeply trusted by the Divine Master and participated in this battle together. In the end, they came out alive.

After the chaotic battle, the music score was divided into three parts and scattered throughout the world.

The Divine Master returned to the Fantasy Divine Hall to recuperate, and the two ancestors of the Yi family and Nan family were ordered to stay in the God Residence Realm to find the music score.

This was the greatest secret of the two families, and only the family heads knew about it. Nan Jinshu only found out about these past events after becoming the family head.

Speaking of which, the Yi family and the Nan family had already followed the Divine Master from that time.

After 10,000 years of searching and waiting, there was finally hope today.

Back then, the Divine Master had chosen those two people because he had already made up his mind to choose them as the new priests. However, he waited so many years in the end.

And now, by chance, it was his and Jun Jiuqing’s turn.

Nan Jinshu was extremely nervous. His throat was dry as he looked at the Divine Master with anticipation.

Finally, the Divine Master’s voice sounded again. “Nan Jinshu.”

“I’m here!” Nan Jinshu immediately replied.

“You’re the same as him. As long as you can successfully ascend to the heavens and become a deity, the position of Second Priest will be yours.”

“Yes!” When he finally heard what he wanted to hear, Nan Jinshu was extremely excited.

Although the Second Priest was slightly inferior to the High Priest, it still surpassed these deities! As long as he could succeed, he would be ranked first in the Fantasy Divine Palace!

But after a short period of excitement and joy, Nan Jinshu quickly became worried again. With my current strength, it would probably be difficult for me to ascend to the heavens and break through…

Jun Jiuqing glanced at Nan Jinshu coldly from the corner of his eye and sneered in his heart.

Originally, the person standing here shouldn’t be Nan Jinshu. But during the battle at Peach Blossom Dock, Chu Liuyue had almost wiped out the Nan family’s bloodline, leaving only Nan Jinshu to take over.

This led to today’s situation.

It was impossible for Nan Jinshu to do it. He could only covet the position of Second Priest, but he could never reach it.

But to the Divine Master, this wasn’t important because the most important thing… was still the High Priest!

…

Dugu Mobao’s eyes closed slightly. His expression was calm, and his eyes seemed to be covered in a thin layer of frost with a bone-chilling coldness.

He didn’t seem to care about the position of High Priest.

No matter how everyone probed, they couldn’t see anything on his face.

Chu Liuyue closed her eyes and held her breath to focus. She then forced herself to return her attention to the Xuan formation around her.

At this moment, the countless spots of light around her had almost all connected. Only a small portion was left!

Chu Liuyue’s palms were slightly sweaty. At this point, even she couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.

She had a faint premonition: Once she ascended to the heavens and broke through, it seemed like… many things would begin to develop in an unpredictable direction.

There was a door in front of her waiting for her to open it, and even she herself didn’t know what was waiting for her behind the door.

She held her breath and connected the last few points on the Xuan formation.

Finally—

Whir!

As she landed the last bit, an extremely powerful fluctuation spread out from the Xuan formation around her!

Everyone looked over. “She’s going to succeed?!”

Chu Liuyue clenched her fists and waited quietly.

But at this moment, a star in front of her suddenly dimmed.

She was dazed.

Right on the heels of that, countless stars and streams of light around her sank into darkness!

A thought came to mind. I failed to break through?
