Tang San had already taken part in dozens of Escape-Kill Games, and he understood every detail inside them with absolute clarity.
But right now, his teammates didn't believe in his strength, nor did they trust his character.
Even with his father and great-grandfather racking their brains, they still couldn't find any loophole he could possibly exploit. Tang San had long stopped holding out much hope.
The Liemó Trial Grounds, however, were a blank slate.
Aside from a single line of introduction, the specific rules, gameplay, win-loss criteria, and any hidden mechanics were all completely unknown.
The unknown represented infinite possibilities—
A chance to turn the tables.A chance to catch up from behind.A chance to shine.A chance to earn his teammates' forgiveness… or even their respect.
So, the moment his words fell, Tang San's heart instantly jumped into his throat. He subconsciously held his breath, eyes full of urgency and expectation.
Nan Gong Lingyun could clearly see his impatience. The corner of his lips lifted slightly, and he naturally curved the conversation away.
Instead of answering, he asked:
"Do you know where Feixian City actually is?"
That single question instantly made Bing Qingyujie's eyes erupt with thick curiosity—along with a bit of repressed excitement.
Qin Feng was someone whose mouth had no filter.
Every time before, as long as someone opened with a hint, he would immediately start spilling all kinds of inside secrets.
Looked like today they were going to hear a lot of classified intel again.
Nearby, Tang Hao—and even Tang Chen, who was in a secret chamber hundreds of meters away—both quietly perked up their ears.
Even in the God Realm, the Shura God King's expression turned extremely solemn.
Ever since learning about Feixian City and the Feixian Assessment from the inheritor, he had been trying to investigate.He'd asked a few ancient gods from the Dragon God era—Time, Space, and others.He'd even sent people to test top geniuses from other lower-world planes.
Yet he hadn't found a single clue.
It was as if this "Feixian City" suddenly appeared out of thin air, and only people from Douluo Star ever participated in its assessments.
Given Feixian City's outrageous setting of "ruling over all the heavens,"
No one knowing about it for over three million years, and test-takers being limited to one tiny region, was honestly way too bizarre.
If he hadn't personally checked Tang San and the others for any foreign energy traces—any law-force not belonging to this world—he would have started suspecting that this so-called Feixian Assessment was actually another God Realm planting spies in Douluo, preparing to invade.
Nan Gong Lingyun spoke faintly:
"To understand what Feixian City represents, you must first understand: what is 'xian'? And what is 'feisheng'?"
Across the heavens and countless worlds, regardless of cultivation system—soul masters, sorcerers, martial artists, shinobi, Daoists, demonic cultivators, scholars, Buddhists—everyone eventually faces the same problem once they reach the top: the limits of their world's laws.
A world is like a room. Its countless laws form walls that cannot be broken.
Cultivators are like potted plants placed at the window.
Under normal circumstances, sunshine, soil, the pot, the competition with other plants, the owner's pruning—so many restrictions.Little flowers and grasses simply cannot grow too tall.
But time and space are infinite, and so are worlds.There are always exceptions—those who, by luck or by talent, break through themselves and gradually fill the entire room.
Until the room can no longer contain them.
At that point, to keep growing, they must burst through the room, stretching their branches into the space beyond.
Breaking the room is called 破碎虚空 (Shattering the Void).Extending into the outside is Feisheng (Ascending).And one who succeeds in doing so… is an immortal, a xian-ren.
Three million years ago, the God Realm of this time-space once had someone who nearly succeeded—but failed at the final step.
Across the heavens, all who succeed in Shattering the Void see the same origin place.
It exists beyond time and space, beyond fate and causality—existing above the three thousand Great Daos and the countless lesser laws.Or rather, it is the one that governs all of them.
Thus, it is called the place that cannot be known, cannot be seen, cannot be heard—
Meaning: as long as you remain inside your world, under its laws, you can never find it.
Feixian City is the dwelling built there by immortals.
Nan Gong Lingyun continued. At some point, Tang San's expression became slightly excited.
The word xian was extremely familiar to him—his Daoist background was full of legends of "ascension."
Even the core Tang Sect method Xuántiān Bǎolù originally came from a Daoist cultivator who'd been assassinated.
Thinking of myths and rumors from his previous life, Tang San felt stormy waves surge within his heart—and of course, endless ambition.
Beside him, Tang Hao was also completely stunned.
He had originally thought that reaching level 100 and becoming a God counted as becoming an immortal.He never expected that even the gods and god kings weren't considered immortals—and that only one person, three million years ago, had almost gotten there.
In the God Realm, Shura God King's serious expression collapsed in an instant.
As a supreme god king who held countless lives' destinies in a single thought, he almost never lost control of his emotions.
But this time, he couldn't help but shoot to his feet, blood-red pupils exploding with shock.
He muttered in disbelief:
"The Dragon God isn't even the lowest-rank immortal in Feixian City?"
No one understood the Dragon God's terror better than him.Even for the five god kings, the Dragon God was a being that defied logic, one that could not be comprehended.
Nan Gong Lingyun continued:
"Because Feixian City was built jointly by countless immortals across the heavens, and its rules maintained by them, it also governs a tremendous number of living worlds."
The Liemó Trial Grounds are fragments of special time-spaces carved out from these worlds.
A captured time-space fragment must meet three conditions:
First, chaos— the kind involving top-tier powers clashing to the death.Second, an event within it must determine the future global structure of that world.Third, the situation must involve complex, intense battles of strategy and power—no one-sided stomp allowed.
After a trial begins, the test-takers will be thrown by Feixian City along the river of time and through spatial channels into their assigned fragments.
There, they will be given a varying number of mandatory main quests, side quests, as well as random and free quests.
For example—if the time-space fragment comes from Douluo:
You might be thrown twenty thousand years into the past and be required to defeat the six-winged Angel who grasped the Judgment Law, conquered the entire continent, and forcefully became a god without inheriting any upper-realm legacy.
Or they might erase the Angel God entirely and ask you to take her place—comprehend laws, conquer the continent, and forcefully become a god.
Or—and this is far more likely—they might project many people with similar destinies into the same time-space.
You would have to defeat each of these top-tier prodigies one by one, and then complete the impossibly difficult destiny that originally belonged to them.
