"Humph, thanks to your Inverse Cultivation Test, I have returned to my newborn state," Gu Wang grumbled.
"Newborn state? Is it equivalent to a newborn human baby? "Jian Wushuang was astonished.
"Yes. So, if you were to fight with someone now, don't expect me to help you recover your divine power," Gu Wang obviously wasn't friendly.
"In my current state, how can I fight with anyone? I'm afraid any Universe God can kill me easily," Jian Wushuang smiled bitterly but he was obviously in a better mood.
For the rest of the time, Jian Wushuang stayed on Sword Star quietly and lived the life of an ordinary person.
The news of Jian Wushuang being poisoned and losing his power spread like a storm in Ten Cultivation Sanctuaries.
Countless experts in Ten Cultivation Sanctuaries were shocked.
Especially the experts on the Universe God ranking list. None of them would have thought that Jian Wushuang, who had displayed his shocking brilliance in Wu Bei's cave not long ago and was recognized as one of the top geniuses in the Eternal Chaotic World, would suddenly encounter such an unforeseen event.
It was completely out of everyone's expectations.
After hearing the news, there were people who sighed with emotion, people who sighed, people who sympathized and of course, there were people who gloated.
For example, Zi Dongwang, who was ranked fourth on Universe God ranking list.
When he found out that Jian Wushuang had encountered such an unforeseen event, he laughed happily.
"Poisoned, lost his power and is even weaker than an ordinary person?"
"Haha, Jian Wushuang, I never thought you would end up like this!"
"Humph, it'd be best if you could stay like this forever!"
Back then, Zi Dongwang had suffered a great loss because of Jian Wushuang in Wu Bei's cave. Hence, he naturally resented Jian Wushuang.
Besides Zi Dongwang and other people who resented Jian Wushuang, there were also people who were close to Jian Wushuang. For example, Duan Lingfeng had sent him a message to ask about him at the first instant.
To the people who were related to him, Jian Wushuang was always calm and collected and said that he was fine.
However, everyone knew that his situation wasn't optimistic and Jian Wushuang was holding on.
Time passed.
Three thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
On the Sword Star, under a big tree, four figures sat together.
Other than Jian Wushuang, the other three were Ling Feibai, Long Ya, and Xuan Yi.
The three of them had some friendship with Jian Wushuang. Over the years, they would occasionally come to the Sword Star to meet up with Jian Wushuang. As for whether Jian Wushuang had the same strength as before, they did not care.
"Jian Wushuang, in a few days, the Star Palace Disciple Competition will begin." Ling Feibai looked at Jian Wushuang and said.
"Star Palace disciple competition?" Jian Wushuang's expression changed, and then he smiled faintly, "Time really flies. Another five thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye."
He remembered that before Wu Bei's cave opened, the Star Lineage had just started the Star Palace disciple competition. Then, it felt as though five thousand years had passed in the blink of an eye.
"I won't be taking part in the Star Palace disciple competition this time," Jian Wushuang said.
"Not taking part?" Ling Feibai, Long Ya, and Xuan Yi looked at one another and nodded.
They knew that Jian Wushuang's power had yet to recover. In his current state, he really couldn't take part in the competition.
Plus, there was a rumor in the Star Lineage that it was impossible for Jian Wushuang to recover in the future.
After all, three thousand years had passed.
If his power could really recover, theoretically, he should have recovered long ago. Until then, there wasn't any sign of recovery. Hence, more than seventy to eighty percent of the disciples and experts in the Star Lineage thought that Jian Wushuang would never recover in the future.
The rest were just some disciples who still had a trace of blind admiration for Jian Wushuang's past achievements. They still believed that Jian Wushuang would recover one day.
However, after a few days, the competition for Star Palace disciple competition started and Jian Wushuang gave up, the last bit of faith in the disciples gradually disappeared.
Everyone thought that the legend that Jian Wushuang had created, the divine altar that countless Universe Gods worshipped with his fierce power in Wu Bei's cave … had collapsed!
The divine altar had collapsed. Jian Wushuang had fallen to the bottom of the valley.
He might not be able to struggle in the future.
Even the Vientiane Tower had removed Jian Wushuang's name from the brand new Universe God ranking list.
Three thousand years ago, he was still the favored one that countless experts in the Eternal Chaotic World were talking about enthusiastically. But then, he had become a topic that the experts occasionally sighed with emotion.
Even in the Star Lineage, there were some people who were dissatisfied with Jian Wushuang.
After all, in the Star Lineage, only the top five in the competition to become a disciple of the Star Palace would be recognized as a disciple of the Star Palace.
However, Jian Wushuang had given up in the competition to become a disciple of the Star Palace. Theoretically, he should have been reduced to a normal disciple. However, in actual fact, the Star Lineage still retained his position as a disciple of the Star Palace. He still had the right to receive the resources that the disciples of the Star Palace possessed.
Just like the Star, including the maids in the Sword Star, they were all treated as disciples of the Star Palace. Jian Wushuang still retained that.
That naturally made many people jealous. However, they were suppressed by Temple Lord Yuan forcefully.
…
In the secret room of the Sword Star.
"Three thousand years!"
"The Inverse Cultivation Test for the Third Heaven has been going on for a total of three thousand years. However, I feel that the test is still very far away from ending."
Jian Wushuang sat there with his legs crossed and felt his body.
Then, he was no different from a normal person. He was still the white-haired old man who looked as though he could die anytime.
"There are still so many years to come. I can't stay on the Sword Star forever. Otherwise, my heart will definitely break down and I will go crazy." Jian Wushuang muttered. He knew clearly how torturous the past three thousand years were. If it wasn't for his high state of mind that had reached the peak of the first level, he would have broken down long ago.
If it were anyone else, even if they were a Real God, they would definitely go crazy in the past three thousand years.
To suddenly lose all power and fall from the altar to the bottom of the valley, to become a normal person, it was like a high and mighty monarch becoming a beggar overnight. Moreover, it was a beggar who couldn't see the slightest bit of hope and light. How could a normal person endure that?
Plus, he didn't know how long that would last.
If he were to stay on the Lineage of Star forever, Jian Wushuang wouldn't be able to take it.
He immediately contacted Temple Lord Yuan.
"Temple Lord Yuan, I would like to go out for a walk," Jian Wushuang stated his intention straight away.
"Mm, you should really go out for a walk," Temple Lord Yuan obviously agreed, "Tell me, where do you intend to go?"
"I am only a normal person now. It is impossible for me to walk around in the Eternal Chaotic World. Temple Lord Yuan, I wonder if you know any place where a normal person can stay?" Jian Wushuang asked.
