The wind at the top of the mountain was strong and it was quite cold. When it blew on Jian Wushuang's frail body, there was a slight pain.
Jian Wushuang didn't move but sat there like an old monk in meditation.
Time flew past.
Day after day, month after month, year after year.
The continuous wind and sun caused Jian Wushuang's body to change gradually. In the end, he turned into a rock.
Occasionally, birds and beasts would come to rest on the rock. Occasionally, people would come to the top of the mountain but no one paid attention to the rock.
From their point of view, besides the strange shape of the rock, it was no different from other rocks.
During the period when Jian Wushuang turned into a rock, the Real God Elder Ming Ba of Green Feather Pavilion stayed in the dark void and watched everything in silence.
"What is Jian Wushuang doing?"
Ming Ba was confused.
Ever since Jian Wushuang came to Qing Tian Mystery Land, he had been following beside Jian Wushuang. He had witnessed Jian Wushuang's experiences in the mystery land with his own eyes.
At the beginning, he had thought that Jian Wushuang had integrated into the life of a normal person and he reckoned that he would spend his life there as a normal person.
But then, he had turned into a rock again but his aura hadn't dispersed.
This caused Ming Ba to be completely confused.
He didn't know that Jian Wushuang was at the end of the inverse cultivation test for the third heaven then. It was also the most crucial step, change of fate and rebirth!
At that moment, Jian Wushuang finally understood that what he had experienced in the inverse cultivation test for the third heaven was the test of fate!
The test of fate!
From a great rise to a great fall!
From a top genius who was in the limelight to a useless person who didn't have any spiritual power.
From a person who was admired and amazed by everyone to a pitiful person who was pitied by everyone.
To be bullied and tortured by the heavens.
Everything was within this tribulation of destiny.
The test tested one's heart.
If one's heart could change and transcend, to be able to see through everything, one would be able to clear the fog in front of one's eyes and return to the peak.
Otherwise … he would be consigned to eternal damnation!
Just like Real God Wu Bei, when he had gone through the same test back then, he had once gone mad. If it wasn't for someone who had helped him at the very last moment and he barely maintained a bit of clarity in his heart, he wouldn't have been able to pass through the third inverse cultivation test. However, even if he had passed through it, his temperament had changed greatly.
But Jian Wushuang was different.
From the changes in his heart during the three thousand years in the lineage of the Star to the rage he felt when he first came to the Qing Tian Mystery Land and saw the Chen Family Village turned into a sea of blood, he almost went crazy.
Fortunately, the dozens of years that he had spent in the Rising Sun Palace and the dozens of years of ordinary life of sweeping the floor had allowed his heart to calm down.
This was a true tranquility, like an ancient well without ripples.
Then, he completely transformed into 'Dustless' and blended into the life of an ordinary person, seeing through everything.
Following one's heart, following one's nature, everything was up to fate.
Jian Wushuang had been living a miserable life for thousands of years, but Jian Wushuang was not moved by it at all.
With such a mentality, he transformed into a stubborn stone and walked to the last step.
He used a total of thirteen thousand years for the last step.
He transformed into a stubborn stone on the top of the mountain and stood there for thirteen thousand years.
Finally, he woke up.
"Jian Wushuang."
Gu Wang's voice rang in Jian Wushuang's head, "Three thousand years in the lineage of the Star, five thousand years in the Qing Tian Mystery Land previously. Then, you transformed into a stubborn stone for a total of thirteen thousand years. In total, it has been twenty-one thousand years!"
"For the past twenty-one thousand years, every year, every day, every hour, even every breath was a test. Luckily, you didn't disappoint me."
"Congratulations!"
"From today onwards, you … already possess the right to stand at the top of the Eternal Chaotic World!"
When Gu Wang said that, his voice was obviously excited.
An inverse cultivator competed with the universe.
Under the oppression of the universe, one reached the peak.
In the three inverse cultivation tests, every step was harder than the previous one. Every step was the gate to hell. Over the years, there had been many inverse cultivators. However, ninety-nine percent of them had died under the three inverse cultivation tests. Previously, when Gu Wang had recognized Jian Wushuang as his master, he had been worried that Jian Wushuang would die in the inverse cultivation test one day.
But then … his luck had changed. Or rather, it could be said that the trapped dragon had risen to the sky!
Jian Wushuang had passed through the three inverse cultivation tests.
From then on, there would be no more tests in his inverse cultivation journey.
He already possessed the right to enter the ranks of the peak experts.
Hearing Gu King's words, Jian Wushuang felt a tinge of joy in his heart, but he did not feel much emotion.
Then, he opened his eyes slowly. The moment he opened his eyes, the stubborn stone that he had transformed into immediately began to collapse.
A large number of stones collapsed, revealing Jian Wushuang's thin and frail old body. However, this frail old body had begun to change at this moment.
Metamorphosis!
After passing the inverse cultivation test, he had transformed from a Universe God in the Second Heaven to a Universe God in the Third Heaven.
The metamorphosis that time was completely different from the previous two times. There was no descent of divine light, no power and no great movement.
Everything seemed ordinary and indifferent.
In the void, Elder Ming Ba from Green Feather Pavilion was still floating. He had already stayed there for a total of thirteen thousand years and he had been impatient for a long time.
"I don't know how long more I have to wait. Jian Wushuang might as well die. Why do I have to accompany him when he is half dead?" Ming Ba was shaking his head and sighing. However, his expression suddenly changed. He had already noticed the change in the stubborn stone on the mountain below.
"Mm, this Jian Wushuang …"
Ming Ba saw that Jian Wushuang's stubborn stone had disappeared and revealed his frail old body. Then, his frail old body that was like a withered tree started to regain vitality and become stronger.
Jian Wushuang's dry and yellowed skin gradually became rosy and his face started to look younger.
In just a moment, Jian Wushuang, who was originally a white-haired old man, had once again transformed into the arrogant and admirable young man he had been in the past.
"God, Divine Power fluctuation?"
Ming Ba stared. He could sense that Jian Wushuang's appearance had not only returned to normal, but there was also a Divine Power fluctuation from his body.
Even though the fluctuation of divine power was rather obscure, it still caused him to feel a trace of pressure.
"This Jian Wushuang, could it be … that he has recovered?" Ming Ba thought in shock.
Just then, in the mountain palace, Jian Wushuang, who had returned to his original appearance and his divine body had finished its metamorphosis, suddenly lifted his head. His eyes that were as deep as a vast Star looked straight at Ming Ba.
At this moment, Ming Ba's entire body was filled with fear and his face turned ghastly pale.
