Chapter 204: Benefit Plunderer

However, even if cultivators used such a thod and luckily passed the Immortal Ladder test, the subsequent assessnt would not be so easy to resolve.

The second stage tested a cultivator’s talent.

Every sect had its own ways to test a cultivator’s talent.

For cultivators below the Foundation Establishnt Stage, the sect would make decisions based on the cultivator’s spiritual root.

After all, even if one had reached the Golden Core stage, the quality of the Golden Core stage was determined by the quality and quantity of the spiritual roots that the cultivator had when condensing the golden core.

The more spiritual roots one had when condensing, the higher the quality of the spiritual root, and the higher the quality of the golden core condensed.

Lu Yuan’s way of the heavens golden core, which was condensed from nine Foundation Establishnt through the way of the heavens spiritual roots, was the highest quality nine-patterned way of the heavens golden core.

“Nine-patterned” referred to the nine spiritual roots, and “way of the heavens” referred to the quality of the spiritual root.

Not to ntion the Lower Realm, there had never been a cultivator as crazy and lucky as Lu Yuan in the Upper Realm.

After all, in order to complete such a Perfect Golden Core Formation through the way of the heavens, not only did one need to first gather nine Foundation Establishnt through the way of the heavens spiritual roots, but they also needed to successfully fuse them.

As long as there was a step missing, it would be impossible to complete.

No matter how talented a person was, they could not guarantee that they would not make any mistakes in the process.

If not for the system, Lu Yuan could not guarantee that he could do this.

It was already very good for him to complete more than five Foundation Establishnt through the way of the heavens spiritual roots.

Since the cultivators who passed the Immortal Ladder test had different cultivation levels, the second stage of the assessnt was slightly different.

For Core Formation Stage cultivators, the test was the quality of their golden cores.

The content of the test for Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivators was to the quantity and quality of their spiritual roots. The higher the quantity and the better the quality, the higher the chances of passing.

The second section of the assessnt was to get the approval of the Trial Stone.

The so-called Trial Stone was actually a test stone tablet.

Only cultivators who t the requirents would be approved by the Trial Stone.

So far, the cultivators had mostly figured out the criteria to pass the second section.

In terms of Foundation Establishnt Stage, one had to have at least two Foundation Establishnt through the way of the earth spiritual roots or one Foundation Establishnt through the way of the heavens spiritual root.

Any cultivator who did not complete any of the two points would not be able to pass.

The requirents for the Core Formation Stage were similar.

Cultivators either had to have a two-patterned the way of the earth golden core or a one-patterned way of the heavens golden core.

Otherwise, they would not be able to pass.

However, it didn’t matter even if one didn’t pass.

This was because even cultivators who could not pass could choose an Upper Realm cultivation technique from the second stage to cultivate.

It was the Upper Realm’s efforts to prevent any talents from going unnoticed.

After all, after so many years of selection in the Upper Realm, there were so late-bloor geniuses.

Therefore, giving them the Upper Realm’s cultivation thod was actually forming a good relationship with the other party in a sense.

After all, the cultivation techniques given by the Upper Realm were incomplete.

If a potential talent cultivated the cultivation technique given by the Upper Realm, they would need to join the sect that provided the cultivation thod in order to finish learning the technique.

The sects of the Upper Realm used such a thod to monopolize knowledge and ensure that they would definitely be able to gain sothing from the Lower Realm.

For most cultivators, the purpose of passing the Immortal Ladder test was to choose an Upper World cultivation technique.

Many of the incomplete cultivation techniques of the five righteous sects and the three devilish sects actually ca about because of the test.

Cultivators who obtained the cultivation techniques could obtain a considerable reward from the sect after handing them over.

After passing the Trial Stone of the second stage, they arrived at the final stage of the Path for Immortal Ascension.

The final stage was also known as “Opening the Heavenly Gate”.

At this stage, every cultivator would have a completely replicated mirror image enemy based on their own strength.

Moreover, the enemy’s strength would be about 50% higher than the cultivator’s own.

Therefore, in order to defeat such an enemy, it was definitely not enough to just have cultivation. One also needed strong combat strength.

In the third stage, each cultivator could choose three divine abilities from the Treasure Pavilion of the Immortal Ladder.

The three abilities were the key to defeating the mirror image.

Therefore, the stage tested the cultivator’s comprehension ability, be it in terms of cultivating divine abilities or in terms of real-ti combat.

Comprehension ability was the key to determining whether a cultivator could defeat their mirror image.

Such difficulty could almost stop the vast majority of people.

It was worth ntioning that the strength of the mirror image would increase according to one’s previous strength.

For example, when one first entered, one didn’t learn the divine ability from the Upper Realm.

Then, the newly learned divine power would not appear in the mirror image this ti.

But the next ti one entered, the new mirror image would know the divine power.

If one’s cultivation level increased during this period of ti, the next ti one entered, the mirror image’s cultivation level would also increase.

Therefore, if one could not defeat the mirror image in one go, the difficulty would only increase.

If one couldn’t defeat the mirror image within ten years, then the cultivator’s final outco would be to be teleported out.

There was a ti limit, and the difficulty was also high. The Path for Immortal Ascension thus denied countless geniuses that the outside world acknowledged.

Only those true monsters remained.

After learning about this, Lu Yuan had so wonderful ideas.

Originally, Lu Yuan did not want to go to the Path for Immortal Ascension because he felt that he did not want to go to the Upper Realm and felt that there was no benefit to him in participating in such a test.

However, upon learning that he could actually obtain so cultivation techniques from the Upper Realm after participating in the assessnt, Lu Yuan’s interest was imdiately piqued.

In general, participating in the Path for Immortal Ascension would give one chance to choose a cultivation technique and three chances to choose a divine ability.

However, Lu Yuan felt that he had a way to increase such opportunities.

He planned to disguise himself as a different cultivator and enter the assessnt.

However, Lu Yuan had to solve a problem, which was masking his golden core.

However, that was not a difficult thing for Lu Yuan.

This was because he happened to have a skill that could solve his problem to so extent.

“Divine Soul Disguise.”

“Effect: able to change one’s divine soul and cultivation to a certain extent.”

Although the description of the skill was not much, Lu Yuan realized it in actual practice.

The skill allowed Lu Yuan to disguise his golden core as another golden core.

For example, he had a nine-patterned way of the heavens golden core now.

Lu Yuan could disguise it as a one-patterned way of the heavens golden core, the minimum requirent to pass the second stage.

As long as he passed the second stage, Lu Yuan could directly go to the Treasure Pavilion to choose a divine ability.

After that, he just needed to leave the Path for Immortal Ascension and return in another disguise with a one-patterned way of the heavens golden core.

Then, he could replicate the previous operation.

In other words, Lu Yuan had a total of nine chances to repeatedly shuttle through the Path for Immortal Ascension.

The idea was undoubtedly very attractive to Lu Yuan.

After all, his current strength had reached the Core Formation Stage, and his current cultivation techniques had basically been cultivated to the maximum level.

It just so happened that he needed to change its cultivation thod.

If Lu Yuan could choose a cultivation technique from the Treasure Pavilion in the Upper Realm, it would undoubtedly be a very good thing for the current him.

It would be extrely beneficial for Lu Yuan when he attempted to reach the way of the heavens Nascent Soul Stage.

After all, there wasn’t much information in the Lower Realm about how a Core Formation Stage cultivator could break through to the Nascent Soul Stage.

Lu Yuan’s master, Han Yuanshan, was only a Core Formation Stage cultivator.

He didn’t know much about how to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage, so he naturally couldn’t tell Lu Yuan.

Using the thod of the Treasure Pavilion in the Upper Realm to reverse deduce the key to breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage was undoubtedly a very effective plan.

As a steady person, Lu Yuan naturally would not be content with the current situation.

Instead, he maintained a sense of danger at all tis. While being careful, he tried his best to increase his cultivation.

Therefore, Lu Yuan finally decided to participate in the Path for Immortal Ascension.

Lu Yuan had also given his participation operation the code na “Benefit Plunderer”!

What he was plundering was the benefits given by the Upper Realm!
