Chapter 1321: Chapter 1205: The Crushing of the Top Student
Just as a great battle erupted outside in the Continent of Grey Mists.
A massive stone gate stood prominently in a hidden space, unknown to anyone.
The stone gate seed to isolate another world, even the flow of ti in reality could not seep into its interior.
Beyond the stone gate was a pitch-black corridor.
As one advanced forward, tiny specks of light finally erged in the distance, revealing a staircase constructed entirely from countless books, amounting to a total of one hundred steps.
These hundred steps ascended to the heavens, where amidst the Sky Vault, endless stars shimred.
Each star was a crystalline embodint of wisdom capable of illuminating epochs in humanity’s history!
This was the world of Myriad Dao.
“Throughout the ages, those Supre beings who dared not challenge the dam and chose instead to survive in obscurity have all hidden themselves behind this gate…”
Mo Zhi stared ahead at the staircase, a spark of fervor igniting in his eyes.
“Every Supre being has witnessed a fragnt of ti’s brilliance. This is the crystallization of countless civilizations’ wisdom… Give ten thousand years to read it all, and even as a Supre… I may touch its essence!”
He approached the staircase, but suddenly sensed sothing unusual. Turning around, he saw a little girl carrying a box of books approaching from another direction.
“Hmm?”
Mo Zhi was a bit puzzled. Was there soone else at the Ten Thousand Dao Gate?
His expression turned cold as he commanded, “Stop there!”
Xinning blinked her large eyes at Mo Zhi and said:
“Who are you?”
Mo Zhi replied coldly:
“I am Emperor Mo Zhi!”
“And who are you? Why have you co here?”
Xinning answered, “? I’m Xinning. I’ve co to read books.”
“Are you here to read books too? Since you can enter here, Emperor, you must be very knowledgeable, right?”
Her large eyes were filled with innocence and curiosity.
“White Mist Beings…”
Mo Zhi detected sothing unusual about Xinning and felt a slight unease. A murderous instinct arose within him.
However, this place was under the watchful gaze of Supre beings, and her entry must have been permitted by them.
If he killed Xinning, it would likely lead to complications.
“You may leave. The knowledge here is not sothing a wet-behind-the-ears girl like you can covet!”
Mo Zhi said coldly.
Xinning rely smiled and replied:
“Emperor Mo Zhi, but my Big Brother said everyone has the right to pursue knowledge. The halls of knowledge should be open to all under the heavens.”
Mo Zhi sneered coldly, “Such arrogant words!”
“Fine, this Emperor has co here solely to seek knowledge. I’ll spare your life for now. But do not disturb , or I will show no rcy!”
With that, he advanced toward the staircase.
In the first step, countless glimrs of light converged into a single book!
This was the manifestation of the first step. Only by comprehending the content of this book could one climb onto the first step and begin viewing the second.
Mo Zhi carefully examined it, closed his eyes, contemplated, deduced, and internalized its teachings!
Finally, his eyes opened, and at that mont, countless lotus flowers seed to bloom within his gaze.
It was the evolution of the Dao.
In an instant, the book disappeared, and he ascended the first step.
“As expected, even the first book touches the core essence of the Dao!”
Mo Zhi murmured, eagerly anticipating the books ahead.
At the sa ti, he glanced back, only to see the little girl nad Xinning still standing before the first step, curiously observing the knowledge staircase and the brilliant Wisdom Star Vault above, showing no signs of comprehension.
“Wet behind the ears, entering this place is truly a waste!”
He shook his head and proceeded toward the second step.
…
At this mont, before the first step.
Xinning curiously gazed at the hundred steps before her and the Wisdom Star Vault beyond that they connected to.
“Hmm… They all seem pretty simple…”
She muttered to herself, then said:
“I should finish the books my Big Brother gave first!”
She promptly and obediently sat down on the first step. Ignoring the manifesting Book of Dao on that step, she opened the box of books she had brought from the small courtyard.
There were still so many she hadn’t finished reading.
She began reading with great relish…
…
anwhile.
Mo Zhi had already stepped onto the second step.
On this step, another book manifested.
This ti he spent an even longer duration, a full two hours.
On the third step, he ditated for an entire day!
On the fourth step, a full month!
“It’s becoming increasingly abstruse. It’s only the fourth step, yet so of the knowledge already touches upon concepts from the Heavenly Emperor Realm…”
He muttered to himself, “Could it be that within just these hundred steps, one might grasp the true essence of the Supre Path?”
His anticipation and excitent grew ever stronger.
Before continuing onward, he glanced back once more.
He saw Xinning still sitting before the first step, using the step as a chair and her book box as a table, still engrossed in the books she had brought herself.
The Book of Dao from the first step hovered beside her, undisturbed and yet to fade.
“Looking for last-minute inspiration?”
Mo Zhi snickered coldly.
To him, Xinning’s inability to unlock the content of the first step’s Book of Dao ant she was scrambling to find answers in other reference books she’d brought along.
He shook his head disdainfully. This Ten Thousand Dao Gate was indeed absurd—why let a little girl enter?
Not worth his attention.
He turned away from Xinning entirely and proceeded to conquer the fifth step.
On the fifth step, he spent a full half-year in reflection.
As he climbed ever higher and deeper into the Dao, his aura likewise transford, becoming increasingly harmonious and complete beyond even the Great Emperor level.
