Chapter 1477: The Test of the Pillar of Destruction (2)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“If you want to obtain recognition from the Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction, you’ll have to pass the test of the Pillar of Destruction,” Elder Ming De said as he walked over with his hands on his back and took a seat. His eyes burned bright as he swept his gaze across Lu Zhou, Little Yuan’er, and
Conch.
Lu Zhou asked in a faint voice, “The test of the Pillar of Destruction?”
“Although you’re the White Emperor’s people, it doesn’t mean you can do as you please in the Pillar of Destruction. Your cultivation base has to be of a certain level…” Elder Ming De replied.
“There’s no requirement to gain recognition from the pillar,” Lu Zhou said.
“This is my condition,” Elder Ming De said before releasing a sharp and immense pressure.
The energy bore down on Lu Zhou immediately. The energy was neither Primal Qi nor energy seals. It was the first time he had encountered such an energy. His Extraordinary Eight Meridians, Dantian’s sea of Qi, and Primal Qi were normal. However, the pressure felt as though a huge mountain was
pressing down on him.
A suppression from his willpower?”
In the past, Lu Zhou had only encountered those who used their cultivation base and strength to exert pressure. This was the first time he met someone who could use their willpower as a weapon. He thought it was likely that this was one of the powers of the greater laws.
Ordinary people were easily swayed and influenced by those with strong willpower; they were emotionally susceptible to this.
As Lu Zhou bore the pressure, Elder Ming De looked at him unblinkingly with a deep gaze.
Soon enough, the force of the willpower grew stronger.
Lu Zhou could not sense Elder Ming De’s cultivation base. This meant that Elder Ming De had a higher cultivation base. However, he knew the Heavenly Writing would be able to deal with this so he silently meditated on the Heavenly Writing. As expected, a cooling and calming sensation swept through his
mind
Buzz!
Although Elder Ming De felt he had the absolute advantage, at this moment, he felt an indescribable force pushing back against his willpower. He leaned back a little and was almost injured by the backlash.
Whoosh!
After Elder Ming De regained his composure, he looked at Lu Zhou and asked, “Are you really one of the White Emperor’s people?”
Lu Zhou, who was completely unharmed, asked in return, “Could his jade token be fake?”
At this time, Hong Jian chimed in from the side, “T’ve already taken a look at the jade token. There’s no doubt that it’s genuine.”
Elder Ming De nodded before he sighed lightly and said, “The White Emperor is determined to gain immortality. Ever since he went to the Endless Ocean, he hasn’t returned at all…”
Lu Zhou did not care about the White Emperor. After all, he was not familiar with the White Emperor at all.
Elder Ming De looked at Lu Zhou and continued to say, “There are very few human cultivators who can survive in front of me. You’re one of the few…”
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “The world is so big, There are all kinds of miracles and strange things. I won’t be the last…” Inwardly, he thought to himself, ‘You old thing, you think too highly of yourself!
Elder Ming De naturally understood Lu Zhou’s thoughts. However, he was not angry. Instead, he said with a smile, “You’ve misunderstood me. I only used my willpower to test you because the Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction tests one’s will and state of mind.”
“Will and state of mind?” Lu Zhou was puzzled.
“Only those with an incredibly strong will be recognized by this pillar. As for the state of mind, it would correspond with one’s cultivation base. You’ll at least have to be a Dao Saint. For example, I exerted pressure using my willpower on you earlier. Based on the faint fluctuations of your aura, I could tell
that you’re angry. Hence, at most, you’ll only be a Dao Saint in your life,” Elder Ming De.
Lu Zhou did not say anything. He was indeed slightly unhappy when he was being pressured by Elder Ming De’s willpower earlier. If one’s state of mind was truly important on the cultivation path, then it was indeed not good if one’s state of mind fluctuate too much.
At this moment, Little Yuan’er suddenly said, “That’s not right.”
Elder Ming De turned to look at Little Yuan’er before he said, “What a surprise! At such a young age, you’ve already almost become a Venerable Master. It’s truly rare and commendable. Anyway, why did you say so?”
Little Yuan’er said confidently, “My master will definitely become a supreme being!”
” Elder Ming De thought Little Yuan’er would have some unique insight, but this was it?
Little Yuan’er continued to say, “Dao Saints are nothing. Even if the White Emperor meets my master, he’ll still have to be courteous.”
“22?” Elder Ming De frowned slightly. He had long stopped judging a person’s age by their appearance. Little Yuan’er’s aura confirmed that she was just a young girl. Hence, he treated her like an ignorant junior and did take her words to heart.
“Yuan’er, don’t talk nonsense,” Lu Zhou said with a wave of his sleeve.
“Oh.” Inwardly, she muttered, ‘I’m not talking nonsense.’
Lu Zhou’s priority now was to let the Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction recognize Little Yuan’er, not to argue with others. Moreover, he did not know anyone here. He would be caught between a rock and a hard place if something happened here.
Lu Zhou asked, “Can you lead us to the core of the pillar now?”
“Why are you in such a hurry?” Elder Ming De asked in return.
Lu Zhou said, “I’ve been traveling in the Unknown Land for so many years for this. I won’t be able to rest in peace as long as we don’t get recognized by the pillar.”
Elder Ming De nodded. “Alright.” Then, he rose to his feet and said, “Hong Jian, you should come along as well.”
Hong Jian bowed. “Yes.”
Elder Ming De walked out of Ming De Hall with his hands on his back.
After leaving the main hall, Elder Ming De led Lu Zhou, his two disciples, and Hong Jian to a runic passage.
‘When everyone stepped into the runic passage, there was a flash of light, and everyone vanished from sight.
Not long after, they appeared in an even larger hall..
