Zouyu Water Mansion.
The earth-shattering battle concluded.
The "Map of Ten Thousand Rivers" transford into countless rivers, tightly binding and compressing the black-robed figure, finally condensing into a single drop of water.
One water, one world. Within this drop of water, the black-robed figure stood holding a staff, his form gradually dissolving.
The Witch’s confident smile ca through: "One day, we will et again."
The form of the Innate Water Spirit was ethereal, its feelings complex.
"The Witch had long calculated that the Master and they had a backup plan. For countless years, the Witch plotted this day."
It glanced at the "Map of Ten Thousand Rivers," where the power of the Daoist Rules within was noticeably depleted.
In so places, there were even fine cracks.
If the Master were here, these damages would be insignificant.
But now, there were no more Desolate Gods in this world. Who would repair the Divine Artifacts?
"These are only enough to start one round of trials..."
Originally, the plan of Zouyu was to confirm the most suitable Master of Water Mansion through at least three rounds of trials.
But now, if the second round of trials were held, there would be no third round.
If in ten years the third round were directly held, then the first round would have been held in vain.
Lan Daogang, a sequence 0, had the strength of the Six Realms, and the other trialists hadn’t had ti to grow, making it impossible to compete against him.
"Only plan two can be activated now."
...
Su City Dragon Martial.
Shi Ruyu left Villa No. 32, having just visited Li Xianghua and Lu Guoping.
During the ti Lu Chenzhou was away, the elderly seed to have aged significantly.
This was a sign of spirit deflation, after all, their cultivation was not high, rely ordinary Martial Artists.
She left behind so dications for strengthening the foundation and nurturing their Qi-Blood.
"Junior Brother..."
Suddenly, a token floated out from her chest, shimring brightly.
She was excited, as it had been six months since the end of the Water Mansion trial, and this token finally showed so activity.
[Due to force majeure, the second and third rounds of Zouyu Water Mansion trials are canceled. The following trial missions are issued: from now on, the first trialist to enter the Eighth Step and complete any one of the following trial tasks will, upon being tested by the Water Mansion, beco the new Master of Water Mansion and control all rivers!]
[Task one: Go to the Shadow World and annihilate the Shadow Kill Clan, slaying the "Shadow Stream Dominator."]
[Task two: Kill any Eighth Realm existence belonging to the Evil God of Stars force.]
[Task three: Practice any Zouyu Secret Technique of the Seventh Rank or above to perfection.]
[Task four: Find the remnants of a water-type Divine Artifact fallen in the Three Thousand Worlds and hand them over to the Water Mansion.]
[....]
Looking at these tasks, Shi Ruyu felt heavy-hearted.
Sure enough, sothing had happened to the Water Mansion.
...
Ancient Dragon World.
Louis’s giant sword fell, decapitating a Fourth Realm evil dragon, and he picked up the dragon head, bathing in dragon blood as he looked at the announcent on the token.
"I wonder if Lu Chenzhou is alright... However, the altered trial rules are sowhat easier for ."
At just 40 years old, he had stepped into the Fourth Realm.
It’s known that, due to the dragon bloodline, cultivators on the Ancient Dragon Continent generally progressed slowly.
In terms of advancent speed, he was an unparalleled Genius on the Ancient Dragon Continent.
Surpassing his father was within reach!
...
Fla Bright World.
Fang Bifan, who had just ended his retreat, was cursing.
"Damn Shadow Kill Clan, they ruined the advantage I worked so hard to achieve."
The Divine Race has long lifespans, several tis that of the Mortal Clan.
However, their advancent speed is also slower.
The Yan Ming Realm Venerable spent fifteen hundred years before shattering the void.
His talent was better, but without a thousand years, reaching the Eighth Realm was still hard.
This trial also showed him how quickly the Human Clan advanced.
These Mortal Clans start low, with varying talents and average battle strength.
But their Martial Arts Geniuses indeed advanced quickly.
Not to ntion Lu Chenzhou, so Mortal Clan geniuses, who seed weak to him, could reach the Fourth Realm around forty years old.
If following the original trial rules, by mobilizing the full power of his clan and using the ancient Divine Artifact within, there was hope to narrowly et the standard and enter the third round.
Now, simply comparing advancent, how could he compare to Lu Chenzhou?
The Xia Realm is also a dium-large civilization among the Three Thousand Worlds, rumored to have an Eighth Realm seated.
With Lu Chenzhou’s talent, as long as he doesn’t falter, there’s hope for him to step into it.
"No, I can’t sit and wait for death. Bloodline is the foundation, and my slow advancent can’t be resolved... then I can only deal with Lu Chenzhou."
Fang Bifang transford into a red arc, flying towards the endless Fla Mountains in the distance.
In the center of the mountains, there was a Red Fla Broken Sword piercing through the heavens and the earth, suppressing this world.
This was the Ancient Divine Artifact of the Yan Ming Clan, "Bi Fang’s Sword."
Originally, this was also a Divine Artifact, though not as great as the "Map of Ten Thousand Rivers," it had imnse power.
However, it was damaged during the Divine War, leaving only a broken sword, found by the ancestors of the Featherd Clan, stored in this world to suppress the clan’s fate!
At the base of the Broken Sword, an elder with an almost Eighth Realm aura, raised his eyes to look.
"Young World Master, what is it?"
"Great Elder, can you contact my father? If we want to seize the Water Mansion, we must launch an expedition against the Xia Realm!"
...
Thunder Swamp World.
Purple Thunder Empire.
Reks’ eyes revealed a murderous intent.
"Li Jue, Long Yue, Osi... especially Lu Chenzhou, these mortal clans’ geniuses must be dealt with sohow."
...
On this day.
Whether it be the Divine Race or Mortal Clan, the top 100 geniuses from the Three Thousand Worlds all felt an invisible pressure.
They must advance at a speed surpassing all other geniuses to reach the Eight Realms, only then would they have a chance to beco the Master of the Water Mansion.
Even Lan Daogang, already at the Six Realms, looked grave. His progress wasn’t slow, but he dared not guarantee being the first to reach the Eight Realms.
There was no choice, as the freaks that have erged from this trial are too many... especially Lu Chenzhou.
...
At the sa ti.
After announcing the notice, every Water Mansion projection in any water vein location in the Three Thousand Worlds vanished simultaneously.
No matter how powerful individuals searched, they were hard to find.
Inside the Zouyu Water Mansion, the Innate Water Spirit sat cross-legged on the "Map of Ten Thousand Rivers," closing its eyes.
After this upheaval, it and the Water Mansion too must sleep for so ti.
"I hope when I wake up, that kid can step into the Eight Realms."
...
"What’s going on, this Lighting Order doesn’t have the option to teleport back?"
Lu Chenzhou was sure he had already advanced to Martial Arts Grandmaster.
In a mont of frustration, it seed as if so kind of change occurred in his mind.
He looked at the Martial Arts Tree, noticing two more barren branches had sprouted from its trunk without his realizing.
[Martial Arts Regret]
[When you break through a major Realm, regardless of whether the Breakthrough succeeds or not, you can consu the power of the "Ti Dao Principle" to perform ti reversal up to twice, to verify the feasibility of each path. The higher the Realm, the more Ti Dao Principle consud. If a life and death crisis occurs due to the Breakthrough, ti reversal can also be used to resurrect twice.
Note: Ti reversal will take you back to seven days before the Breakthrough.]
[Current Ti Dao Principle: None]
Seeing this, Lu Chenzhou’s breathing beca heavy, his mind was shaken.
"Martial Arts Regret? Ti Reversal? Resurrection? What kind of heaven-defying ans is this."
This ti, the transformation of the Martial Arts Tree was far too great, exceeding his expectations.
This function wasn’t particularly useful for him at this mont.
After all, with his talent, advancing up to the Heavenly Realm was smooth sailing, hardly encountering life and death crises.
But from Breakthrough Seven onwards, there was basically no path ahead, requiring self-exploration.
Each level beyond the Heavenly Realm is a major calamity; failing a Breakthrough ans death!
That’s why the Eternal Immortal left no Life Candle Fla before closing himself for cultivation.
The president worried about his own death dealing too big a blow to civilization, causing future generations to lose the confidence to Breakthrough.
Hence, to this day, no one knows if the Eternal Immortal succeeded.
Possibly successful, or perhaps already... dead and vanished.
At this mont, Lu Chenzhou gained so insight.
"Martial Artists must have the belief of Martial Arts without Regret, but if there is a ans to have Martial Arts with Regret, to start over after failure, naturally that’s excellent."
But, where does the power of the Ti Dao Principle co from?
Misty-eyed, he looked towards the high peak behind him.
This seemingly mythical Heavenly Candle Mountain is the dojo of Zhu Jiuyin.
"Could it be that the change in the Martial Arts Tree is related to this place?"
"My hope of exiting is likely also within this mountain."
He looked around, boundless and without borders.
Rather than wandering like a headless fly, it would be better to venture forth.
This place, even if not the Candle Realm, is inevitably connected to Zhu Jiuyin.
Zhu Jiuyin, Chi Ji, Zouyu... these three, as it seems now, are on the sa side as him and shouldn’t harm him.
Upon this thought, he ascended on a cloud.
The next mont, an invisible pressure struck, crashing him to the ground.
"Cough cough... can’t fly in here?"
Lu Chenzhou dispersed the dust on him, emitting the aura of a Grandmaster soaring to the sky.
Behind him, the silhouette of a towering tree condensed, reaching a hundred feet tall.
This is the "World Tree Realm" manifested by his Grandmaster-level Martial Arts Will.
Within the realm, I am invincible.
Martial Artists who are not Grandmasters, unless possessing a freakishly strong spiritual power and Martial Arts Will like his, will beco trapped within the realm, unable to extricate themselves.
The mountain’s slope was steep, the rock extrely hard, and with his Grandmaster cultivation, he couldn’t budge it at all.
Using both hands and feet, and sotis employing the Big Spear as a climbing stick, he climbed step by step.
Not knowing how long it had been, he estimated he had climbed ten thousand feet.
But upon looking up, the summit was still out of reach, and looking back, the road he had co from was gone.
"I need to find a way out; I can’t be trapped here to death."
As it seems now, this might not be the Candle Realm, he dared not linger here long.
Whooshing— the air felt like it was being swept by Yin Wind.
After climbing ten thousand feet, Lu Chenzhou entered a certain Gang Wind Layer.
The Yin Winds were like the black blades the Shadow Kill Clan had attacked him with that day, disregarding his Divine Armor and Vestnt robe, penetrating every crevice.
"Nine Mountains Mysterious Robe!"
Bzz bzz bzz! A nine-colored robe appeared, draping layers of True Gang aura, keeping the Yin Wind outside.
He had just advanced to Grandmaster and had yet to convert the [Nine Mountains True Gang] into the [Four Seas True Gang].
Otherwise, the Nine Mountains Mysterious Robe powered by Four Seas True Gang would have even stronger defensiveness, walking through fire and artillery would be trivial.
He continued to climb upward, unaware of the passage of ti.
