Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood Chapter 2073 - 1024: Passed! The Second Trial Begins!

He took a deep breath and looked up at the two doors.

His eyes no longer held a trace of hesitation or struggle.

Instead, they were filled with unprecedented clarity and... determination.

"I..."

He spoke slowly.

"I choose neither."

"Hmm?"

The Guardian’s voice had a hint of unexpected wavering for the first ti.

"What do you an?"

"I won’t abandon my family."

Luo Qingchen looked at the door of white light, his eyes incredibly gentle.

"I won’t give up on my companions either."

He turned to the door shrouded in black mist, and his eyes were filled with resolute determination.

"Only children make choices."

"I want it all!"

His voice was forceful, filled with undeniable dominance.

"Arrogant."

The Guardian’s voice turned a bit cold.

"What makes you think you deserve it all?"

"This!"

Luo Qingchen suddenly struck his own chest with a punch.

The Chaotic Power, Star Force within him, and even that nascent Power of Laws fused with the Heavenly Dao fragnt.

Exploded with a roar!

Before this absolute, unreasonable force, the Illusion Realm before his eyes.

Shattered instantly like a mirage in a dream!

The two doors, his loving parents, his despairing companions, all disintegrated and vanished into countless points of light.

Luo Qingchen found himself once again before the magnificent Star Gate.

The Guardian, composed of starlight, stood quietly watching him.

Its indistinct outline seed to tremble slightly.

It was obvious, it had not anticipated.

This "destined one" would break its "test of the heart" in such a simple and forceful way.

"Have I passed the first stage?"

Luo Qingchen grinned at the Guardian, revealing two rows of white teeth.

The Guardian’s outline vibrated intensely, as if the starlight forming its body beca unstable from excessive shock.

It had lived for a hundred thousand years.

Had encountered countless geniuses, and seen nurous ways "destined ones" passed trials.

So relied on great wisdom to see through illusions.

Others relied on great perseverance to stay true to themselves.

But it had never expected anyone to use this way.

So... unreasonable.

Directly shattering the question with a punch.

This wasn’t solving the problem anymore; it was flipping the table of the test creator.

Luo Qingchen looked at it, his smile radiant yet carrying a hint of roguishness.

Inside, he was a bit nervous too.

That punch just now almost drained his newly-ford Nascent Soul of that special power fused with Chaos and Law.

Now he was an empty shell.

If the Guardian got angry, accused him of cheating, and gave him another challenge, it would be over.

"You..."

A grand voice echoed in Luo Qingchen’s mind but stopped after just one word, unprecedentedly.

After a long while, it finally reorganized its words.

"Your choice was unexpected."

"But, the Dao has no right or wrong."

"By using your own power to break open the Heart Illusion Realm, you’ve proven your ’heart’ is strong enough to support your ’Dao’."

"The first stage, the test of the heart."

"You have passed."

Upon hearing this, the stone weighing on Luo Qingchen’s heart finally dropped.

He exhaled a long breath of relief.

Passed, finally passed.

Lin Wan’er and Su Xiaowan, standing beside him, also let out relieved breaths; their hearts had been in their throats.

They didn’t know what happened in the Illusion Realm but seeing Luo Qingchen’s painful struggle, they knew it was definitely not pleasant.

"Thank you, senior."

Luo Qingchen cupped his hands towards the starlit figure.

No matter what, the other had given him a trendous opportunity and allowed him to successfully break through to the Nascent Soul Stage, a debt he must acknowledge.

"No need."

The Guardian’s voice returned to its previous calmness, devoid of any emotion.

"The trial is not yet over."

"Next, is the second stage."

"The test of the Dao."

As its words fell, Luo Qingchen didn’t even have ti to understand the rules before the surroundings transford again.

This ti, it wasn’t back to Earth.

He found himself standing in an endless void.

All around, there was nothing.

No light, no sound, not even the concept of ti passing.

Only he existed, all alone.

Lin Wan’er, Su Xiaowan, Bai Ling’er, all had disappeared.

The magnificent Star Gate and altar were also nowhere to be seen.

"Where is this place now?"

Luo Qingchen furrowed his brows, feeling full of vigilance.

He tried to mobilize the power within him and found that the Nascent Soul was still there; the special rged power was also slowly recovering.

This sowhat reassured him.

"What is Dao?"

The Guardian’s grand voice, in this void space, rang out without any warning, as if from all directions.

"Dao?"

Luo Qingchen was taken aback.

The question was too broad.

How should he answer it?

"Dao is the rule of heaven’s operation, the ultimate reason for the rise and fall of all things."

A voice abruptly sounded in Luo Qingchen’s mind, filled with majesty and coldness.

Imdiately after, the void before his eyes began to evolve.

He saw the birth and destruction of stars.

Saw the propagation and withering of life.

Saw the rise and fall of one civilization after another.

Everything followed a certain cold and irresistible rule.

Those who follow will prosper, those who oppose will perish.

"This is the Heavenly Dao."

"Conform to the Heavenly Dao, master the Law, and you can beco the new ruler of this world, lofty and overlooking all beings."

The voice was full of temptation.
