Chapter 1985 Begin

Without regard for etiquette, Dyon, Luna, and Madeleine sat on the same level as these three Ancestors without a care in the world.

Ancestor Scholar gazed deeply at Dyon, but in the end, he said nothing about the matter. This material is rooted in n0velbin★

"Let's begin then." Were all the words he said.

Ancestor Giant's temper had been quenched as he grew old, but he was still fiery. He had just been about to lash out when he heard Ancestor Scholar's words. In the end, he reevaluated the situation... Not just anyone could make a mockery of the Immortal Blood Gong array...

"Since Brother Scholar has said so, we will begin.

"The Nephilim Gathering takes places once every thousand years. As you all know, there is no age limit nor cultivation limit in participating, and the rewards will be enticing even to Higher Existences!

"The top 1000 will be placed on the Heaven's Scroll and will be bestowed a Title by this legendary treasure that will be a permanent boost to your strength in the future. This is an opportunity even the elderly among you don't want to miss.

"There are no rules or structure to this battle. The only requirement is that one rely on their own strength!

"Rise!"

Ancestor Giant roared, causing nine silver and gold dragon embroidered pillars to shoot into the skies. Even the Immortal Blood Gong array quaked under their might.

Dyon smiled. 'It seems this is the reason for this formation. Without it, the planet would implode.'

A moment later, a massive golden plated scroll rose to hover above it all. Though the scroll unfurled like paper, the names upon it was actually chiseled in like it was a real metal piece. The sight was odd.

Soon, one name after another began to vanish. With the 1000 year mark met, those of the past were erased, making way for those of the future!

"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."

"A few things. Firstly, flight without having the status of a Fallen at a minimum is impossible. Secondly, taking hold of atmospheric qi is at least tenfold more difficult. Thirdly, using Faith is impossible. And lastly... Space is incomparably solid.

"This is all to say that if you wanted to guarantee your daughter's safety, that is the last place you should have sent her."

On the Immortal Plane, everything was several folds more difficult. Even those with Immortal Bodies couldn't fly. In fact, flight wasn't possible on the Immortal Plane until one reached the Immortal Law Realm!

Ancestor Giant was essentially saying that with these restrictions, saving Alauna at the last minute would be absolutely impossible for Dyon. In addition, the fact he emphasized 'status' of a Fallen and not the 'strength' of one meant that Dyon couldn't fly either!

"Is that so..." Dyon stretched out a finger.

A bolt of qi whipped out through the air, leaving the elevated platform and tearing into the Heaven's Scroll domain.

A moment later, a tragic scream shook the skies as a Giant fell with a resounding boom to the ground.

"... I've said it before, I'm not a very patient or understanding man. Say whatever you want about me, but something like alluding to my daughter's death isn't a matter my heart has the magnanimity to forgive.

"In case your ears have grown old and you're failing to understand what I'm saying... watch your mouth or face the consequences."
