Chapter 222 Pantheon Monunt Observation (Part I)
Under the lead of an assistant examiner, fifty examinees ca to a trendous copper hall. Right down to every single inch of the hall, it was forged from copper and the workmanship was flawless.
Once they entered the entrance to the copper hall, many examinees felt a solemn and sacred aura gushing toward them.
Right before them was an extrely vast hall filled with lighted candles. There was not a single pillar inside, but there was a hunchbacked old man with white hair and a face covered with so many wrinkles that they seed like deep trenches.
He seed to be even older than the Commissioner of Education, Luke, one of the examiners for the previous two stages. His clothes seed very tattered, as if they were the white strips of cloth wrapped around a mummy’s body.
Even after all the examinees had entered the hall, the elderly man was still looking to the front, at that inconspicuous stone monunt before him. The stone monunt was a cubic shape ten ters wide, tall and long. All four sides had different diagrams, while the top and bottom were empty.
Looking at this trendous Pantheon Monunt, everyone turned solemn and respectful.
The elderly man’s eyes were fixed on the stone monunt, as though he was in a trance. It was only when all the examinees had approached within thirty ters of the stone monunt that he started to talk.
His old, hoarse voice was like a saw sawing on a block of wood. The elderly man said slowly, “You are the Knights participating in this year’s Regional Selection? I’m in charge of guarding the Pantheon Monunt, and even Devitt and the others are not allowed to co in freely. You have twelve hours to comprehend the Pantheon Monunt. When the twelve hours are up, leave. They’ll be waiting for all of you outside.
“Rember, you’re only allowed to look. You’re not allowed to touch.
“As for the profoundness behind the Pantheon Monunt, although the examiners and your teachers would have told you about it, I’ll still go by the book and bring it up one more ti.
“Back then, the lancholic Monarch had left a trendous amount of information on the Pantheon Monunt using ether particles to channel in the information. After all, everything in this world was ford from ether particles. So, it was natural that the lancholic Monarch would leave behind his comprehension of martial arts in the Pantheon Monunt through ether particles.
“Thus, the Pantheon Monunt holds the martial arts legacy of the lancholic Monarch. Everyone will be able to comprehend a set of martial arts based on your individual ability to comprehend.
“However, comprehending martial arts is just the first level. Only after you’ve comprehended the second level on a deeper basis will you be able to let the skill evolve and make the martial arts you’ve comprehended more complete.
“Different understandings and interpretations will allow you to comprehend different martial arts, and the limits to each set of martial arts are also different. There are so people who are able to comprehend a complete set of martial arts after reaching the second level, but there are also so who will need to reach the third level before they’re able to comprehend a complete set of martial arts. There are even level four and five. Naturally, the more profound martial arts you comprehend, the more formidable you will beco. However, the highest record at the mont is Devitt’s level four.
“As for the interpretation and the martial arts chosen, it’ll all depends on your understanding. Everyone’s understanding is different, and thus the martial arts and limits you attain will be different as well.”
After saying this, the elderly man stopped talking and beca fully focused on the Pantheon Monunt, as though he was only concerned with the mysteries of the Pantheon Monunt.
Manny used his Reduced Force Field to tremble the air carefully and sent his voice to Fang Xingjian, “This person is the Governor from two terms back. He has been here, where the Pantheon Monunt is, since twenty years ago, protecting it closely while keeping it in sight.”
Fang Xingjian nodded and saw that the rest of the people had headed over, looking at the Pantheon Monunt with curious, astonished and excited gazes.
David was the first to walk up. Bearing two dark circles, he looked at the Pantheon Monunt agitatedly, trying hard to comprehend the profoundness within.
After seeing Fang Xingjian’s performance in killing the Colossal Ard Ape, he had not been able to sleep at all the previous night as he was under trendous stress.
Fang Xingjian’s performance in the first two stages had given him too much pressure. Fang Xingjian was not a Conferred Knight, yet he had a battle prowess close to that of a Conferred Knight’s. How could that not make David feel stressed out?
Moreover, he had already made an enemy out of Fang Xingjian. Therefore, he put in a lot of effort and focus into observing the diagrams on the Pantheon Monunt. However, the more he did so, the more exasperated he felt. His mind was filled with Fang Xingjian, of himself being publicly shad in the Hundred Blossom Banquet, of Fang Xingjian shattering the tal pillar, and of Fang Xingjian killing the Colossal Ard Ape.
The more this happened, the harder it was for him to calm down and comprehend the Pantheon Monunt. He only felt that chest was stuffy, and he could not comprehend anything at all.
However, the more he could not comprehend anything, the worse his mood got, and very quickly, he was covered in perspiration.
On the other end, Manny walked up to the Pantheon Monunt slowly. His expression was very carefree, and he appeared relaxed. After all, he had already comprehended the Pantheon Monunt once and knew that his limit was at the second level. Therefore, he did not plan to insist too much on this.
Rota did not start comprehending the Pantheon Monunt the first mont she stepped up. It was her first ti seeing the Pantheon Monunt and the first ti she was participating in the Regional Selection, so she felt too excited to the point that her heart palpitated too quickly.
On had to be able to remain calm without batting an eyelid even if the sky were to fall. The more important the issue, the more one needed to remain calm and not panic.
Therefore, she knew that the more important the manual, the more profound the martial arts and the more one must not be overly anxious. Otherwise, it would just be a case of more haste and less speed. Restlessness was a great taboo in the study of martial arts.
Therefore, when she saw the other examinees who were rushing over anxiously, she smiled and shook her head. Then she sat down cross-legged, closed her eyes and ditated.
She did not start cultivating nor did she think about anything complicated. Rota rely wanted to clear her mind and calm down before she started to comprehend the Pantheon Monunt seriously in a full-spirited and clear-minded state.
However, compared to how she needed to ditate and clear her mind, Anderson and Hoult were a notch higher.
They did not feel anxiety or agitation at all.
Anderson was indisputably a genius. How could he not be one when he could transition into a Shadow Death God, sothing which no one in the Empire had succeeded for the past 200 years? Moreover, he had the ability to not forget things he had a seen only once. He went up to the Pantheon Monunt, took a walk around it and was able to rember every little mark, diagram, and color on it.
He then shut his eyes while in his mind, akin to a calculator at work, the diagrams on all four sides of the Pantheon Monunt continued to be broken down, reford, switched around and even twisted.
Hoult’s eyes were filled with an unprecedented confidence. In his gaze, everything on the monunt appeared ever so clear.
The many scratches were astral traces, while the many dots were the brightest stars, and those colors were various strong winds and auras.
‘What Teacher said was true. The lancholic Monarch did inherit the legacy of our Myriad Stars Palace. This Pantheon Monunt he left behind are the records of the immorial star charts.
‘This star chart is just right in complenting my Myriad Stars ditating Technique. I shouldn’t be far from attaining Heaven’s Perception now.’
Hoult’s gaze lit up as he looked at the Pantheon Monunt Observation like he was hungry or thirsty. After a few minutes passed, it was as if he could see countless stars clashing against each other in his mind. There were light rays shooting out and explosions from the earth’s magnetic fields. The ssages left behind by the Divine level expert on the Pantheon Monunt were being transmitted into his brain directly, showing him the stars in the universe through a virtual reality simulation.
Gradually, a set of ntal cultivation thod by the na of Astral Sword appeared in his Stats Window.
To other people, Hoult’s body was suddenly lit up with many micro lights. It was the sign that he had succeeded in comprehending the Pantheon Monunt.
Various lights represented the ether particles, which made up the Pantheon Monunt, flowed into the cultivator’s body together with the information they contained. This ant that he had attained so success in the comprehension.
This was sothing left behind by the Divine level expert, lancholic Monarch, in order to differentiate the comprehension level of each individual cultivator. If one were to gain success in comprehending this, he would be able to show such signs within a day.
The elder, who had initially still been engrossed in the profoundness of the Pantheon Monunt, suddenly stared at Hoult, who was deep in comprehension with his eyes wide-open. ‘So fast? How many minutes has it only been? To think that he has already comprehended the profoundness within the Pantheon Monunt?
‘This Pantheon Monunt contains boundless mysteries, and each individual’s line of thoughts and interpretations are all different. However, there has not been anyone who could comprehend them so fast. How did he do it?
‘I wonder how he interpreted the Pantheon Monunt: what thod he used; what martial arts he comprehended; and what level is he able to reach?’
All the examinees looking at Hoult were showing gazes filled with envy. To think that he was able to comprehend the profoundness of the Pantheon Monunt in less than five minutes. What a terrifying talent!
Anderson looked at this scene and let out a cold snort, feeling that the white light was extrely dazzling and hurting his eyes. He shut his eyes and continued to comprehend the things he had ingrained in his mory. Various information were being regrouped endlessly, giving rise to different results.
David and the others beca even more anxious and panicky after being provoked by Hoult. However, the more nervous they felt, the more ssy their minds beca, and thus were unable to decrypt any information.
After half an hour had passed, Wei Leng, who had attained Heaven’s Perception, also had spots of light shining all over his body. Through the information collection via the Heaven’s Perception, he had also directly comprehended the martial arts from the Pantheon Monunt.
Just then, as Fang Xingjian was looking at the Pantheon Monunt, a series of familiar feelings flashed past his mind incessantly.
