The power of the Divine Realm Gate grew stronger, and the divine light it emitted made everyone present feel a terrifying aura. However, the crowd pressed forward, showing no sign of retreat even if it meant death.
"Die! You ants, you are not worthy to be here!"
The old man in green clothes had ice-cold eyes filled with a chilling glint. The lives of the people before him seemed utterly insignificant in his eyes.
Although all those who had come had met their demise, for some inexplicable reason, they were driven to press on without hesitation. Even facing death, no one retreated, as if this was their only hope.
Soon after, many corpses were crushed into dust. Millions of powerful cultivators were nothing before the Divine Realm Gate, like a swarm of ants begging for heavenly mercy.
At this moment, everyone finally felt the terrifying steps of the Divine Realm and instantly halted, their brows furrowed. They even questioned internally if it was worth it.
Lu Fan and the others stood by the side. Despite feeling the divine pressure, they showed no intention of retreating. Instead, they pressed forward with an indomitable spirit. If they could pass the trial of the Divine Realm Gate, they would directly enter the Divine Realm, which was an essential step for them.
"With your strength, you cannot enter the Divine Realm at all. Why come here to seek death!"
Zhao Xiaotian's voice rang out, his words filled with seriousness. His gaze swept over everyone present, his expression grave.
The situation had reached this point, and he didn't know what else to do, but he had no authority to stop them.
After all, this was everyone's choice, and everyone's heartfelt desire.
"Even if we die outside the Divine Realm Gate, we will do so willingly!"
The crowd shouted in unison, appearing fearless of death. Although they knew that approaching the Divine Realm Gate meant death, they showed no apprehension, instead pressing forward with an unyielding spirit.
"Perhaps this is the price for stepping into the Divine Realm!"
Lu Fan said with a wry smile, his heart moved as he looked at the myriad of skeletons. The scene before him evoked a complex mix of emotions, and such events were a form of torment for them.
After enduring the ravages of the Divine Realm Gate, very few survived, and those who did were by no means ordinary. At the very least, they had reached the ninth level of the Heavenly Lord realm.
Seeing this scene, everyone was touched and unsure of what to do.
The power of the Divine Realm Gate grew stronger, and even they found it difficult to withstand it. If even cultivators at the ninth level of the Heavenly Lord realm could not resist, then the power of the Divine Realm Gate was likely too terrifying.
Rumble...
At that very instant, the Divine Realm Gate emitted a rumbling sound, and everyone could clearly feel the gate slowly opening, its aura incredibly vast.
Lu Han and the others also felt immense pressure. Even they had not expected the aura of the Divine Realm Gate to be so powerful. Even they, as supreme experts, might not be able to leave the Divine Realm Gate safely.
"Everyone, be careful!"
Wu Dao spoke, "The Divine Realm Gate is about to truly open. Whether you can withstand its pressure depends on your abilities. Otherwise, you might face utter destruction!"
"We came here to enter the Divine Realm, so why should we fear death!"
Several elders spoke, their eyes appearing calm, as if everything was clear in their eyes.
"That's right, how could those who have reached this point be ordinary people? More importantly, they are unwilling to surrender easily!" Lu Fan said, "It's just that I don't know what lies behind the Divine Realm Gate, and why such a terrifying aura is surging in!"
Rumble...
With another rumble, one elder met his end, and then another. Under the pressure of the Divine Realm Gate, even those at the ninth level of the Heavenly Lord realm could not resist.
Zhao Xiaotian suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale. He had reached the apex of his abilities, and without Lu Fan's help, he would likely have been crushed by the divine light.
"The Divine Realm Gate is extremely strange, and it's likely beyond your resistance!" Lu Fan said, "If you stay here any longer, your life will be in danger, and even I cannot protect you!"
Facing these words, Zhao Xiaotian nodded. With a leap, he directly crossed to the other side of the Divine Realm Gate. He could not enter the Divine Realm; his strength was not sufficient. Therefore, he chose to withdraw.
It wasn't because he feared death, but because he didn't want to implicate Lu Fan. He knew very well that if he stayed, Lu Fan would not be able to disregard him and would continue to protect him, thus also being subjected to the pressure of the Divine Realm Gate.
"I truly didn't expect the divine pressure to be so strong!"
The old man in green clothes frowned. Even as a semi-divine expert, he felt terrified by this pressure. As for others, it was impossible for them to withstand such immense power.
After Zhao Xiaotian left, Ruo Fan also protected himself, resisting the pressure of the Divine Realm. This divine aura was also extremely terrifying, and it made him feel somewhat touched.
He wondered how powerful the gods in the Divine Realm truly were to be able to live under such immense pressure.
Boom...
With another colossal sound, a massive bright light shone from the other side of the divine path, carrying an endless aura that made the people on the divine path feel uneasy, even prostrating themselves with eyes filled with terror.
"The Divine Realm Gate has opened!"
Wu Dao the monk exclaimed, finally spitting out a mouthful of blood, his face pale. Under such immense pressure, they couldn't even move. Even approaching the Divine Realm Gate was incredibly arduous.
"The Divine Realm Gate has finally opened!"
The old man in green clothes also showed a smile, but he was more disheveled, unable to stand under the crushing force. He was completely immobile, and with every step closer to the Divine Realm, he felt immense pressure.
"The divine pressure is very strong!"
Tian Long said, frowning, and struggling constantly under the divine aura.
Since he had arrived at the other side of the divine path, he would not give up this opportunity. Even if it meant death, he would charge into the Divine Realm Gate.
As long as he reached the Divine Realm, he might be able to see his biological father, a super divine beast.
Although such a thought had never crossed his mind before, now that the opportunity was before him, he would never miss it and would cherish it.
At the same time, everyone clearly felt that this aura was extremely subtle and extraordinarily extraordinary.
Lu Fan frowned. Even he was enduring immense pressure.
