Chapter 252: Arrival at Myriad City
In the heart of the Ancient Battlefield lay Myriad City.
After repelling the forces of the Storm Dynasty and resting for the night, Lin Langtian, Jinwu, and the three members of Su Rou's party continued their journey toward Myriad City. Along the way, Lin Langtian and Su Rou seemed to grow even closer, perhaps due to the recent rescue. For Su Rou, with her gentle and innocent nature, Lin Langtian's timely intervention had left an unforgettable impression—almost as if he were a hero from the legends.
Noticing his sister's apparent admiration, Su Kui looked at Lin Langtian with some concern, shaking his head. Lin Langtian was enigmatic and unreadable, like a bottomless abyss.
After half a day of travel, they climbed over a high peak, and the immense sight of Myriad City came into view, stretching endlessly toward the horizon and capturing their gaze with its grandeur. Towering walls rose to the sky and continued out of sight in either direction, never seeming to end.
Since entering the Ancient Battlefield, Lin Langtian had seen his share of vast cities. But nothing he'd seen so far came close to the scale of Myriad City. Above the city outskirts, the sky buzzed with the sound of rushing winds as countless powerful figures descended from every direction, eventually landing just outside the city gates.
"Brother Lin, no one's allowed to fly above Myriad City," Su Kui explained as they approached. "Only those entering through the main gates may proceed. This place is overseen by a super sect, and all who enter must abide by its rules."
Lin Langtian nodded his understanding.
"By the way, Brother Lin," Su Kui continued, "you and Brother Jinwu should qualify for the Nirvana Ranking, right? If this is your first visit here, getting a Nirvana Seal is the most important task."
Hearing this, Lin Langtian's eyes narrowed, and he gave a slight nod. "If that's the case, then let's head to the Nirvana Monument first."
Since a Nirvana Seal was essential for entering the final stages of the Grand Battle of a Hundred Dynasties, Lin Langtian wouldn't overlook this crucial step.
Su Kui led Lin Langtian's group through the city gates, joining the flow of warriors moving into the city. Within half an hour, they entered the bustling streets, where waves of sound and heat surrounded them on every side. Blackened crowds lined the expansive streets, filling every corner of the grand city—a true testament to Myriad City's reputation as a super fortress.
"Let's go straight to the Nirvana Monument," Lin Langtian said, focusing on the task at hand rather than wandering the city streets.
Following Su Kui's lead, the group wove through a maze of streets until they reached the heart of Myriad City. As they neared the center, Lin Langtian's gaze rose to take in a towering plaza, a giant stone platform surrounded by people.
At the heart of the massive square stood a golden monument, emanating bright waves of golden light that gathered into ringed halos radiating from its surface—a majestic and awe-inspiring sight.
"So, this is the Nirvana Monument…" Lin Langtian murmured, sensing the immense power radiating from it.
The monument was said to be a celestial-grade spiritual treasure, and inscribed on it were the names of those who had completed the test and earned a Nirvana Seal. Around the monument, people were crowding in awe. Here in Myriad City, this was the focal point; nearly every warrior visiting the city would come to this place to earn their Nirvana Seal.
Lin Langtian and his group found a spot with a good view in front of the golden monument. Lin Langtian's gaze settled on three distinct groups near the monument. The first group, off to the left, consisted of a dozen individuals, each exuding a strong aura. At their center stood a man in silver robes, whose arrogant grin hinted at his domineering personality.
At the center of the area stood a lone woman dressed in white. Her exquisite features were framed by an icy demeanor that seemed to ward off anyone who might approach. She stood out like an untouched, ancient glacier.
To the far right was a third group, made up of warriors in varied attire. Leading them was a man dressed in black, his face expressionless as he gazed forward like a bottomless, still pool.
Noticing Lin Langtian's gaze, Su Kui quietly filled him in, "The group on the left is from the Silver Wood Dynasty, led by Yin Sen, a top-tier warrior of the Three-Yuan Nirvana stage. The woman in white is Mu Hanyue, who may be alone here but is backed by a super dynasty. And that man in black over on the right is Chang Ling, the head of an alliance of smaller dynasties. He, too, is a formidable warrior, nearing the peak of the Three-Yuan Nirvana stage."
Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow. The man in black caught his attention—not for his power, but for his ability to unite a large alliance. Such characters were uncommon, and once they grew in strength, they often became truly formidable.
As Lin Langtian observed the crowd, a stir suddenly rippled through the square as the man from the Silver Wood Dynasty, Yin Sen, moved forward and placed his hand on the cold surface of the Nirvana Monument. Power surged from his palm, and soon golden light blazed from the monument, rising swiftly past the lower Human Rank level into the Earth Rank before finally settling at the ninth position—an impressive feat that drew astonished gasps from the crowd.
Next, Mu Hanyue and Chang Ling approached in turn. Both were renowned figures within Myriad City, with Mu Hanyue ranking eighth and Chang Ling achieving the fifth rank—a feat that overshadowed several warriors from super dynasties.
Watching the Nirvana rankings, Lin Langtian's calm heart stirred slightly. The atmosphere was electric with anticipation, and he couldn't help but wonder—what rank would he attain?
