The Path of Creation had a total of nine tests. The first six tests were not life-threatening and were the most common tests. As for the last three tests, they were very different. Each test was rather dangerous. One could die if they were not careful.
The three disasters of the nine disasters referred to the last three tests. For the preliminary cultivators, once they entered, they would have to face disaster after disaster.
However, not everyone could pass the first six tests. Most people would be defeated in the first six tests. Those who could pass the six tests were usually geniuses among geniuses. Since ancient times, the more talented a person was, the more likely they were to die young. This was because they were too dazzling and pursued different things from ordinary people. However, only such people could walk to the end and become the ultimate strong practitioner.
The Huatian Palace had controlled the Path of Creation for tens of thousands of years. Over the years, countless geniuses had died on the Path of Creation. Those who could come out alive were considered to have succeeded.
The third test was also a very common test.
Mo Wen was standing in front of a huge open space. In front of him was a flight of stairs that went all the way up. The stairs connected to the clouds. He did not know how high it was.
"It is said that it is connected to a heavenly palace. When you reach the heavenly palace, you will reach the highest level."
Mo Wen looked up at the sky. He could only see the clouds and the stairs that went deep into the clouds. He could not see what was at the end.
Mo Wen walked up the stairs step by step. An oppressive force appeared on his body and kept increasing. Suddenly, a strong wind blew. It was as though a heavenly wind had swept down from the heavens. It did not enter the hole and plowed through Mo Wen's body.
"What a powerful heavenly wind."
Mo Wen's body trembled. He was secretly shocked. The key to the third test was to withstand the baptism of the heavenly wind. One had to endure the heavenly wind and keep moving up. Then, when they reached a certain standard, they would pass.
However, the heavenly wind was rather extraordinary. It directly blew into one's body and corroded one's internal organs. All the bones and flesh in one's body would be cut by the heavenly wind. It was as though someone was cutting one's flesh inch by inch with a knife. It was extremely painful.
However, this test was not as simple as letting one endure the pain. It tested whether one's body was strong enough. If one's body was strong enough and their willpower was strong enough, they could persevere.
Of course, even those whose bodies were not strong enough could pass the test. This was because this wind was not simple. Although it was cutting at one's body, it was also constantly tempering one's body, causing one's body to continuously grow stronger under this strange power. Of course, the pain they had to endure in this situation was far greater than what people with strong bodies could endure. It was very difficult for people to endure it.
Mo Wen's body was so strong that even he could not describe it in detail. When he first walked up the stairs, the effect of the heavenly wind on him was negligible.
He walked up one step at a time, almost without stopping. However, the higher they went, the stronger the wind became. After climbing a few hundred steps, the power of the wind doubled. Mo Wen was not confident that he would be able to reach the end of the flight of steps that he did not know how far it was.
However, this wind was also a great help to Mo Wen. His body was indeed very strong, but the stronger it was, the more it needed to be refined. Only then would he be able to improve further and have room for improvement.
Very quickly, Mo Wen had walked for an hour. The heavenly wind that descended had also reached a rather terrifying level. The pain kept increasing. Half an hour ago, Mo Wen had already reached the standard to pass the third test. He only needed to think about it to immediately exit and proceed to the fourth test.
However, he did not do so. He continued to walk forward. He had passed the first and second tests with the highest results. There was no reason for him to give up halfway through the third test. How could he be satisfied if he did not walk to the heavenly palace in the sky to take a look?
Moreover, since the ancient times until now, the strength of his body was absolutely rare amongst those who participated in the Path of Creation. Even now, he was still far from reaching his limits.
Also, Mo Wen discovered that the heavenly wind that descended seemed to be the reward for the preliminary cultivators of this test. No matter who it was, when faced with the heavenly wind, their bodies would be strengthened to a certain extent. The longer they endured, the greater the strengthening effect.
It was not that the wind had a magical power to improve one's physique. It was like a piece of iron that would be tempered into steel after being constantly hammered and forged. Under the wind, a person was like a piece of iron that was constantly being hammered and forged.
Of course, different people had different potential. Those who did not have enough potential would reach their limits. No amount of hammering by the wind would be of any use.
However, Mo Wen's body had not only cultivated the Celestial Body, but it had also absorbed the power of the Pool of Rejuvenation. It was full but not refined. It was at the stage where it needed to be hammered.
Time passed slowly. Mo Wen had already walked above the clouds. The wind continued to howl, getting stronger and faster.
Above the clouds, he could see the sun in the sky. The golden sunlight shone down and was exceptionally beautiful. A palace floating in the sky was bathed in the sunlight. It shone brightly and emanated a mysterious and noble aura.
"Reaching the heavenly palace seems to be the highest result for this test."
Mo Wen gritted his teeth and continued walking forward. Right now, the pain of the wind was getting more and more intense. The intense pain caused his body to tremble uncontrollably.
One step, two steps, three steps … a hundred steps, a thousand steps, tens of thousands of steps. Towards the end, Mo Wen felt that he was once again experiencing a difficult path. Every step he took was like a last-ditch struggle in a difficult path. Right now, what allowed him to persevere was not his body, but his will. A will that was as strong as steel!
Finally, Mo Wen took the last step, trembling slightly. He reached the empty space in front of the heavenly palace. In an instant, all the pressure disappeared. The fierce wind also turned into a gentle breeze and drizzle, blowing past him.
Mo Wen sat paralyzed on the ground, panting heavily. Fortunately, he had not fainted along the way. Otherwise, he would not have been able to stand here. The first six tests of the Path of Creation were relatively easy to pass. However, it was rather difficult to obtain the highest result. Was his body not strong enough? Was his will not strong enough? Even so, he had almost failed.
Just as Mo Wen was panting, a beam of light descended from the sky. The light was hazy and had a misty sense of beauty.
The Mist of Rebirth!
A smile flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. He had finally seen the legendary Mist of Rebirth. This item was even more magical than the Pool of Rejuvenation. It had an unbelievable effect on the body. Before this, when he said that he would be reborn, it was only a relative term. It meant that the body's physique would change considerably.
However, the baptism of the Mist of Rebirth was the true meaning of being reborn. It was said that this item could change a person's most fundamental potential. It could turn a dull person into an amazing genius.
Unfortunately, the Mist of Rebirth was just a legend. Usually, one could only dream about it and not obtain it. The reason why Mo Wen knew that the third test had the Mist of Rebirth in the heavenly palace was because Mo Qingge had told him a secret. It was because in history, there had been one person who had obtained the Mist of Rebirth here. However, that person's identity was special. Only a few of the highest echelons of the Huatian Palace knew about it.
The Mist of Rebirth sprinkled down and integrated into Mo Wen's body. Slivers of power silently integrated into him. It was rather warm and comfortable, as if he was soaking in a hot spring.
The fatigue and pain in his body disappeared bit by bit. Even the hidden injuries in his body had completely disappeared. His entire person was like a piece of jade that had its impurities removed. He became more and more mellow, exquisite, and crystal clear.
Howl!
Under the miraculous power, Mo Wen involuntarily let out a long howl. His body changed at a speed visible to the naked eye. After a while, he grew to five or six meters tall. Moreover, he now had two heads and four arms. They were real heads and arms, not the original mass of energy.
Two heads and four arms!
The Mist of Rebirth directly catalyzed his Celestial Body to two heads and four arms. He was reborn and rebuilt his flesh and blood. What was originally a rather difficult process was now completed in an instant!
Two heads and four arms! The Celestial Body could only be said to have been successfully cultivated now. He had taken the most important and crucial step. If not for the Mist of Rebirth, he most likely would not have been able to transform two heads and four arms into flesh and blood in a hundred or even a thousand years.
Endless power was continuously born in his body. The power of Qi and blood in his body shot up into the sky. Mo Wen felt that his current body could destroy a mountain range.
After an unknown amount of time, the Mist of Rebirth finally slowly dissipated.
Mo Wen stood in front of the heavenly palace. He was high-spirited and exceptionally satisfied. The Ancient Age Creation Sect had actually used the Mist of Rebirth as a trial reward. It was incredible.
After all, such an item was a divine item naturally born of heaven and earth. Every time it was used, it was a priceless treasure. Even the absolute strong practitioners of the Heavenly Path could not obtain an endless supply of the Mist of Rebirth. Using it as a reward in the trial was considered extravagant.
However, the Ancient Age Creation Sect was different from the present. Mo Wen did not know how grand the Immortal Path had been during the golden age of the Ancient Age. Perhaps the Mist of Rebirth back then was not as difficult to obtain as it was now.
However, one thing was certain. The third test, which was to enter the heavenly palace, was a rather difficult task. Most likely not many people in the Ancient Age could do it. After all, only cultivators below the Primordial Soul Realm could enter this place. How strong could the body of a cultivator who had not even reached the Primordial Soul Realm be? For an assessment like this, even a Tide Changing Realm cultivator would not dare to say that they would definitely be able to reach the top of the heavenly palace, let alone a Primordial Soul Realm cultivator.
Mo Wen did not have the Celestial Body, so it was naturally impossible for him to do it.
A beam of starlight flew out of the heavenly palace and burrowed into Mo Wen's palm in a flash. The next moment, an ancient rune appeared in Mo Wen's hand.
"Here it comes again!"
Mo Wen was not surprised. This was already the third rune that he had obtained. It seemed like it was not unusual for him to obtain a rune after passing a test.
After obtaining the rune, Mo Wen felt a mysterious power appear once again. It pushed him out of this space and he disappeared from his original spot in an instant.
When he reappeared, Mo Wen discovered that he had appeared in a palace hall.
The palace hall had many levels, and his current position was the outer hall at the very edge. Between the palace halls, there was a white light screen that separated the two palace halls from each other.
Mo Wen glanced at his surroundings and understood everything. A hint of a smile appeared in his eyes. (To be continued.)
