Chapter 9: The Emergence of the Tianjiao List, More Than Just Physical Constitution
Boom!
A deafening explosion echoed across Da Luo Tian, resonating through the three thousand provinces, and reaching the depths of the underworld. The sound reverberated throughout the entire Luo Tian Immortal Domain, shaking its very foundations.
From the heavens, a blinding golden light descended, as if it had traveled from beyond the Luo Tian Immortal Domain itself. This light transformed into a colossal hand, a manifestation of the heavenly way, which then fiercely struck the sky.
Boom!
This ancient tremor shocked the cosmos. It felt as if the long-sleeping beings in the river of time were all abruptly awakened from their slumber. A terrifying aura of the great way permeated every corner of the realm. The majestic and solemn atmosphere further intimidated the hearts and minds of every living being under the Luo Tian Immortal Domain.
At this moment, it was as if the very rules of the great way were being obliterated. Countless beings, all the races under heaven, felt a deep sense of reverence rising in their hearts. They looked up, some even too afraid to speak.
They saw it clearly now: endless golden light converged, condensing into a grand scroll. The scroll unfolded, stretching thousands of miles across the sky, with only three most ancient and primordial characters:
**Tianjiao List!!**
At this moment, the entire world was shocked to its core.

In another space within the Longevity Palace, after ten years of silence, the system's voice finally reached Chu Wuchen's ears once more.
[Notification: The Tianjiao List has emerged. The host can release all his aura for the list to sense.]
"Hmm?"
In the midst of cultivation, Chu Wuchen was taken aback. The Tianjiao List he had waited for ten years had finally emerged, but he was now at a critical moment in his training. How could he stop now? His primordial spirit had already left his body and was in another space altogether.
"Forget it. No matter."
Tempering his immortal foundation with the primordial spirit was the most important thing now. After he emerged, he would sweep everything before him.

The Chu Family of Longevity. As the foremost family of longevity, their immortal aura was naturally rich and pervasive. In numerous cultivation places, immortal light flowed, and spiritual mist steamed. Immortal birds flew afar, auspicious beasts roamed. Divine springs descended from the nine heavens, traversing the immortal islands.
Usually, it was very quiet and peaceful, with few people around. But at this moment, because of the emergence of the Tianjiao List, too many powerful auras awakened at the same time.
Four supreme beings, five successors, other prodigies, and even some ancient powerful figures. The emergence of the Tianjiao List was not just a grand event for prodigies, but the opening of a great era.
"This time, how many places will the four supremes of the Chu Family of Longevity hold?" An elder looked up, smiling slightly. He was very confident. They were, after all, the Chu Family of Longevity, a top-tier immortal force, truly standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid.

At the same time, similar scenes were unfolding in other orthodoxies, great clans, and families.
In the Taixuan Holy Land, an equally powerful immortal force that had participated in several immortal wars and stood firm throughout the river of time, everyone was looking forward to it.
Many ancient beings and prodigies in seclusion all awakened. Boom! In an immortal cave, a figure suddenly rushed out, shrouded in divine light. His aura was powerful and extremely terrifying. But the most representative feature about him was his mystery.
He couldn't be seen through. His aura was sometimes powerful and terrifying, sometimes ethereal and elusive. The divine light shrouding him resembled time imprints, constantly revolving. Boom! The void trembled, and he suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already in a dojo, appearing ghostly.
With his appearance, the prodigies of the Taixuan Holy Land all changed their expressions, holding their breath. They dared not look directly at him, only bowing respectfully and saying:
"Greetings, Holy Son!"
This person was the Holy Son of the Taixuan Holy Land. He possessed a terrifying reincarnation body and was regarded as an invincible existence by the Taixuan Holy Land. In this era of great competition, he could sweep everything before him!
The emergence of the Tianjiao List was about to reveal who would be the top prodigy of the Luo Tian Immortal Domain. Was there any doubt? Naturally, it was the Holy Son.

In the vast expanse of the Three Thousand Provinces, there lay the True Dragon Nest! This was the territory of the dragon clan, also a forbidden area, a top-tier immortal force. Led by the Red Dragon clan, there were also Flood Dragons, Candle Dragons, and many others.
Of course, most were their followers and servants. Roar!! At this moment, a dragon's roar resounded through heaven and earth, triggering terrifying visions. It seemed a peerless being had emerged. In this era, their True Dragon Nest also had a true dragon.
The top prodigy of the Tianjiao List would surely belong to their clan's Ao Tian!
---
The world was vast, and these were just a few snapshots, with countless similar scenes happening. No one knew how many prodigies, how many long-slumbering beings, had emerged.
In short, each one was incredibly confident, believing themselves invincible. They all believed they could dominate everything in this era, slaughtering all races.
---
Something was happening! At the same time, from every corner of the Luo Tian Immortal Domain, a voice emerged. Because on the Tianjiao List, characters were slowly appearing.
Luo Tian Immortal Domain! These four words were equally weighty, bearing the meaning of the great way, positioned behind the three words Tianjiao List. The hearts of the beings in the Immortal Domain were pounding, their eyes fixed on the Tianjiao List.
Then, another three characters appeared, slightly smaller, below the words Tianjiao List.
**Combat Power List!**
The first list turned out to be the Combat Power List! Interesting! Many prodigies curved their lips into smiles, clenching their fists slightly. This was how it should be; the strong are forged through battles, not merely by their constitution or bloodline.
Exactly! The Combat Power List was agreed upon by many. Indeed, constitution and bloodline were difficult to evaluate in terms of strength once reaching a certain level. Ranking them first or second was nearly impossible.
Take the six kings of the ancient immortal era, for instance; their bloodlines couldn't be ranked in order of strength.
Regarding constitution, the saying goes, "Double pupils open the heavens, undefeated throughout history!" This saying had been passed down for several epochs, and double pupils were indeed undefeated, universally acknowledged by all beings.
However, to claim that double pupils were the number one constitution in history would provoke many to refute. Examples could be cited: Supreme Bone, Chaos Body, Immortal Body, Undying Body, Reincarnation Body, Human Emperor Body...
All of these could compete with double pupils.
An emperor once said in his late years, covered in red hair due to misfortune: "The strong are the people, not the constitution!" The same constitution could achieve different heights in different people. One should not only rely on constitution or bloodline.
More characters appeared. Their eyes never blinked, staring below the words Combat Power List.
Gradually... it appeared.
**Dragon Transformation Realm!**
What the hell! Why start from the Dragon Transformation Realm? I'm already at the Marquess Realm!
