The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1566: Chapter 1566: Council Allocation

Every time the Chaos Secret Realm is opened, there are only fifty slots to enter the Secret Realm.

A hundred million years ago, when the Secret Realm was last opened, the Human Clan got three fixed slots, and ultimately, three Human Clan Divine Emperors entered the Chaos Secret Realm.

This time, there are already eight Divine Emperors from the Human Clan, not including Jing Yan. Including Jing Yan, that’s nine people. Even if the Human Clan gets the same three fixed slots as last time, more than half of the nine Divine Emperors will not get a chance to enter the Chaos Secret Realm.

The Zhan Yue God Emperor, understandably, looked somewhat downcast.

She had been at the God Emperor level for a very long time and had opened up the Star Moon World. However, she still could not step into the Heavenly Venerate Realm. The main issue is that she has no clue how to reach the Heavenly Venerate Level and cannot find any way to do so. Continuing to cultivate like this, it might take several billion, or even ten billion years, and she still might not become a Heavenly Venerate.

The Zhan Yue God Emperor, of course, also wanted to enter the Chaos Secret Realm.

”Is this quota allocated by the Council of Sky Creation City?” Jing Yan asked.

”Yes! Every time the Chaos Secret Realm is opened, the strong from each clan come to Sky Creation City in advance, waiting for the Council to allocate quotas to each clan. The Council consists of nine elders and two councilmen. These fifty slots for the Chaos Secret Realm are allocated by the councilmen and elders.”

”Before the Big Destruction Battle between the Human Clan and the Sky Demon Clan, we could still get more than five slots each time. After the Big Destruction Battle, the slots for the Human Clan decreased. Last time, we only got three fixed slots.” The Zhan Yue God Emperor said with a sigh.

”What about the identities of the councilmen and elders in the Council?” Jing Yan continued to ask.

”The councilmen and elders are some of the oldest and most qualified powerhouses in the universe. Most of them are from major clans. In our Human Clan, there is also one Council Elder.” The Zhan Yue God Emperor replied.

”Master, I will do my best to help you secure a slot to enter the Chaos Secret Realm.” Jing Yan’s eyes focused.

Hearing Jing Yan’s words, the Zhan Yue God Emperor looked at Jing Yan with some gratitude but still shook her head.

Jing Yan hasn’t even secured his own slot; how could he help her get one?

If there wasn’t Thunderbolt Venerable, Jing Yan might not have any problem entering the Chaos Secret Realm. But now Thunderbolt Venerable clearly doesn’t want Jing Yan to have a slot for the Chaos Secret Realm.

”Jing Yan, do you know why Thunderbolt Venerable is against giving you a slot?” The Zhan Yue God Emperor gathered her thoughts and asked Jing Yan again.

”Well, I really don’t know why Thunderbolt Venerable is hostile towards me.” Jing Yan nodded and said.

”Thunderbolt Venerable isn’t hostile to you; he probably wants to secure a slot for his disciple. His disciple, Qian Zhun God Emperor, accompanied him this time.” The Zhan Yue God Emperor’s eyes flickered as she spoke.

”So that’s how it is! I was wondering earlier, having never interacted with Thunderbolt Venerable before, why he would target me. Turns out he wants a slot for his disciple to enter the Chaos Secret Realm. My presence reduced the chances for his disciple, which is why he’s not too welcoming of me.” Jing Yan suddenly understood.

Meanwhile, as Jing Yan and the Zhan Yue God Emperor were casually talking, Thunderbolt Venerable and his disciple, Qian Zhun God Emperor, were also discussing in another room.

The topic of discussion between Thunderbolt Venerable and Qian Zhun God Emperor was naturally Jing Yan.

The sudden appearance of Jing Yan indeed disrupted Thunderbolt Venerable’s plans. Originally, he felt quite confident about securing a slot for his disciple, Qian Zhun. But if the unexpectedly appearing Jing Yan were to gain a slot, the difficulty for his disciple Qian Zhun to get a slot would increase significantly.

”Qian Zhun, you don’t need to worry too much, I will do my best to secure a slot for you. If we Human Clan still get three fixed slots this time, even if giving one to Jing Yan, there would still be two left. It’s not impossible for you to get one. Moreover, besides the fixed slots, there are also floating slots. If our Human Clan is lucky enough to draw a floating slot, your chances will be even greater.” Thunderbolt Venerable said to his disciple Qian Zhun.

”Thank you, Master!” Qian Zhun God Emperor stood respectfully in front of Thunderbolt Venerable.

More than ten years later.

A man from the Earth Clan, dressed in silver attire, entered the building where the Human Clan resided.

”Are the Human Clan representatives here?” The Earth Clan man shouted upon entering.

Hearing the shout, Ruchen Venerable and others immediately appeared in the hall.

”Council Envoy!” Ruchen Venerable courteously cupped his hands.

Thunderbolt Venerable and Chunyu Venerable also appeared almost simultaneously in the hall with Ruchen Venerable. They both treated this Council envoy with equal courtesy.

In fact, the strength of this Earth Clan Council envoy is roughly equivalent to an ordinary Divine Emperor of the Human Clan.

Yet Ruchen and these three powerful Venerables all treated him with courtesy.

This Council envoy, however, showed no hint of nervousness; on the contrary, he stood up straight with his head slightly raised.

”I represent the Council to inform you to gather at Sky Creation City Square tomorrow morning.” The Council envoy said.

”Alright, our Human Clan will certainly arrive at Sky Creation City Square on time,” Chunyu Venerable said with a smile.

”Hmm!” The Council envoy turned around and walked out with a swagger.

”Finally... they will begin to allocate the slots!” Chunyu Venerable took a deep breath.

The Human Clan members had been in Sky Creation City for decades, waiting for the Council to allocate slots. Now, finally, the time had come.

”I wonder how many fixed slots our Human Clan will get this time. Hopefully, more than last time,” Ruchen Venerable said.

”More than last time? Haha, it would be good enough to be on par with last time. I previously inquired about it from Elder Xiao Ye; although Elder Xiao Ye didn’t explicitly say it, he hinted that the situation might not be optimistic.” Thunderbolt Venerable sneered.

He referred to Elder Xiao Ye, one of the Council’s nine elders, who hailed from the Human Clan and was a Heavenly Venerate.

”Yes! As for fixed slots, probably at most three. But for those floating slots, we failed to draw one last time; this time, who knows, we might get one.” Chunyu Venerable nodded and said.

”You nine, quickly come to the hall!” Thunderbolt Venerable utilized his Divine Thought to summon Jing Yan and the other nine Divine Emperors to the hall.

Jing Yan and the nine Human Clan Divine Emperors quickly flashed out of their rooms and came to the hall.

”Just now, the Council envoy came to inform us that tomorrow at Sky Creation City Square, the Chaos Secret Realm slots will be allocated,” Chunyu Venerable said to Jing Yan and the others.
