I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 479: Chapter 336: Before the Dao Tree_3

Chen Mobai recalled the two occasions on which he had ventured before the grand Dao tree. The first time he had cunningly used the Asura Puppet, borrowing the power of this Rank-3 puppet, to reach the tenth step. This secured his unsurpassed reputation in the Magic Duel that spanned two realms and allowed him to obtain the realm of Sword Rainbow Fission.

The second time was more spur-of-the-moment, using his own true power to test the boundaries.

Regrettably, he only made it as far as the seventh step. Although it was a decent accomplishment, he felt somewhat humiliated, having squandered so many resources.

Today, he once again stood before the grand Dao tree.

When he stepped onto the seventh platform, although he felt pressure on his Divine Sense and physique, compared to the exhausting weariness he had previously felt, it now merely seemed like warm-up exertion after exercise, causing him to break out in a slight sweat.

It was even somewhat comfortable.

Thus, he took the eighth step.

The faint humming sound in his ears caused a momentary blurring of his vision and an intensity threefold stronger attacked his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion. Chen Mobai was forced to stop and digest the aftershock of this trial.

Not only was his Divine Sense being attacked, but also the spiritual power within his Dantian Qi Sea and his bodily vigor were depleting simultaneously.

Only at this moment did Chen Mobai understand that this longevity-seeking method is a comprehensive trial on a cultivator’s spirit, vigor, and Divine Sense. However, cultivators from the Tianhe Realm, compared to Divine Sense, focus more on elevating their Spiritual Power Realm. Therefore during previous trials, they often display an inability to stand the pressure, losing consciousness each time.

The capacity of a barrel is determined by its shortest stave.

Since the Asura Puppet is a puppet, trials on its spiritual power and physical body prove ineffective. Only the Divine Sense Chen Mobai poured into it reached its limit, therefore he could only take ten steps.

Compared to that time, Chen Mobai’s Divine Sense has improved significantly. However, when it comes to the Perfection of Foundation Establishment and the Longevity and Immortality Sutra, it was still the weakest link.

At this eighth step, he even felt a slight ringing in his ears.

But this side effect was completely dismissible to him.

He glanced at the grand Dao tree that was now within arm’s length and took the ninth step.

The impact on his Divine Sense was more terrifying than before, and he felt a faint sense of dizziness.

However, it was still within his tolerance level.

The tenth step.

The instantaneous headache caused Chen Mobai to clench his teeth involuntarily, and the perfect Longevity Spiritual Power within the Dantian Qi Sea began to drain wildly.

At this moment, the effect of refining the Longevity Tree Juice into his skull was revealed. A warm and gentle spiritual energy enveloped his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion, which quickly helped him recover his senses.

Then, he took the eleventh step!

“Cough, cough…”

Chen Mobai raised his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth. The bloodstained palm caused him to furrow his brows, and the intense pain in his head was almost unbearable.

If it were not for the continuous warmth flowing in his skull, soothing his Purple Mansion’s Sea of Knowledge and easing the headache, he would have fainted by now.

For this reason, he felt he hadn’t yet reached his limit and could take one more step.

Without hesitation, while the spiritual power of the longevity tree’s juice had not yet been exhausted, Chen Mobai moved forward again, taking the twelfth step!

“Pfft!”

His vision was abruptly filled with crimson. He knew it was due to blood filling his eye sockets, or more accurately, from blood flowing from his seven openings.

Upon reaching this step, even with the protection of the spiritual power from the longevity tree’s juice, he had reached his limit.

So be it, he would try again next time.

Just as Chen Mobai was turning around, a piece of green leaf floated down and landed on his forehead.

The scene he had once experienced, commanding the Asura Puppet, was played out once again.

[Twelve steps before the Dao tree, an excellent result. You are qualified to be the Saint Heir of my Longevity Sect.]
