Chapter 2247 - Embarrassing (1) (1/2)
When Ancestor Giant said that there were no rules, one might find it to be an exaggeration. But the reality was exactly like this. The moment his words fell, the massive space below erupted into chaos.
Luna, despite having absolute confidence in Dyon, couldn't hide the slight worry in her eyes. Of course, this worry had nothing to do with the fact they were sitting right beside three Ancestors of exalted standings, but rather because her daughter was amidst the chaos below.
Dyon might be infallible, but had their daughter reached such a level yet? As a mother, she couldn't place down this stone in her heart.
It was then she felt a large hand envelop her own, seeping with warmth.
”There's nothing to worry about.” Dyon said lightly.
Luna smiled a forced smile, but she didn't respond. She of course knew that amongst the younger generation, her daughter had no equal. Even Aiden, Eli and Delia's child, was lacking in comparison to her.
However, this wasn't a competition of the younger generation. There were no age restrictions, no cultivation restrictions, there weren't even restrictions on what kind of hidden means one could make use of. Something that could be considered ”cheating” in any other competition was perfectly fine here.
Though no Fallen or Higher Existences had taken action yet, this would only a minor courtesy given to those beneath them. After all, the Scroll tallied 1000 names, but even if you added up all the Fallen and Higher Existences of the mortal plane, you wouldn't be able to make up half that number.
As a result, top tier cultivators tacitly agreed to allow Dao experts to vie for their positions first. Only after the dust settled would they make a move and claim that top 300 to 400 spots or so.
Of the experts of the mortal plane, with the devil cultivators as an exception, they were all here! This wasn't a joking matter. Yet, the troublemaking Alauna had decided to jump in as though it was nothing but a game. This left Luna feeling exasperated.
”With Little Alauna's means, it's probably impossible to enter the top 1000, but she should still experience some things. Don't worry, I'll bring her safe and sound back to her mother.” Dyon teased.
Luna's smile became slightly more genuine as she shook her head, ignoring Dyon.
”It seems you are a bit ignorant of the powers of Heaven's Scroll.” Ancestor Giant sneered.
”Oh, is that so?” Dyon replied casually.
”There are no rules to this event, however there are still special properties of the Nine Dragon Pillars and the Heaven Scroll itself. Namely… Heavenly Laws are far more stringent under their influence. Legends say that this is the closest one can come to the Immortal Plane on our mortal plane.”
Dyon's smile deepened. ”And what do you mean by that exactly.”
