The first six tests of the Path of Creation tested willpower, state of mind, physique, cultivation, soul, and comprehension.
The so-called cultivation was the foundation of one's control of energy. Although energy was not the entirety of one's ability and did not take up much of it, it was the foundation.
In the beginning, there was nothing. There was no self, no others, and no heaven and earth. There was nothing.
Later, there was a mass of energy in the nothingness. This mass of energy gave birth to heaven, earth, and all things in the universe. Cultivators were one with heaven and earth, controlling heaven and earth, and even becoming heaven and earth. Hence, the amount of energy one controlled represented the extent of one's integration with heaven and earth.
If one did not have enough energy, they would not be able to advance to a higher realm.
Speaking of which, many things a cultivator controlled were energy, including the soul, deified soul, body, esoteric meaning …
However, the fourth test of the Path of Creation only tested a cultivator's basic energy. In other words, the amount of inner Qi an ancient martial art practitioner had in their body determined whether or not they could pass the test of the fourth test.
Mo Wen was more or less confident about this test. His Yin Yang Qi was a power that surpassed the level of ordinary spiritual power. Moreover, the total amount of it was comparable to that of an intermediate stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivator, or even higher.
Usually, those who came to the Path of Creation were mostly people below the Primordial Soul Realm. Those people could pass the fourth test, so why couldn't Mo Wen?
The light shroud between the palace halls was the test topic. Breaking the light shroud would allow one to enter the next palace hall.
For ordinary preliminary cultivators, they only needed to break a light shroud to enter the next test.
Mo Wen walked up to the light shroud and gently slapped it with his palm. The light shroud immediately shattered without any resistance. He estimated that the first light shroud could withstand the power of a third martial arts grandmaster realm cultivator. Any third martial arts grandmaster realm cultivator could shatter the light shroud. Some powerful second martial arts grandmaster realm cultivators could also shatter the light shroud.
For Mo Wen, it was naturally as fragile as a piece of paper. He successfully entered the next palace hall. Inside the palace hall, there was a teleportation zone that glowed with a light shroud. As long as he entered the teleportation zone, he could be teleported away and enter the next test.
However, Mo Wen did not go over. Instead, he looked at the white light shroud inside the palace hall. There was another palace hall inside the light shroud.
Bang!
The second layer of light shroud also shattered with a bang. For Mo Wen, it was still not difficult. As he advanced, he did not stop. The third floor, the fourth floor, the fifth floor …
Finally, when the sixth layer of light shroud appeared, Mo Wen did not shatter it immediately.
"The sixth light membrane can withstand an attack that is equivalent to a mid-stage Primordial Divinity attack. If I don't use all my strength, I won't be able to break it."
Mo Wen was secretly shocked. It was said that in the fourth test, there were a total of nine layers of light shrouds. Only by shattering all nine layers of light shrouds could one achieve the highest result. If the sixth level was already so difficult, how difficult would the next three levels be?
No wonder Mo Qingge said that it was easy to pass the first six stages of the Path of Creation, but it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to obtain a good result.
Boom!
An all-out attack shattered the sixth layer of light shroud. Mo Wen's current level of Yin Yang Qi was only comparable to an ordinary intermediate stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivator. There was still a gap between him and the later stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivator.
"If I don't use some of my abilities, it looks like I won't be able to pass the seventh floor."
Mo Wen stood in front of the seventh light shroud. He gave it a try. It was rather difficult for him to forcefully break through with his Yin Yang Qi. He had to use some remarkable secret techniques in order to shatter it.
In the fourth test, he could not use external forces, such as magical treasures, spiritual talismans, and stratagems. He also could not use the power of his soul or his own body. Otherwise, with Mo Wen's current Celestial Body, it would have been a piece of cake for him to break through the nine layers of light shrouds in one go.
However, he could not unleash the Celestial Body at all right now because he was being suppressed by a formless power.
However, he could use some martial arts techniques, remarkable secret techniques, or the esoteric meaning of heaven and earth. It was because the basis of using these techniques was the most basic Yin Yang Qi.
Mo Wen tried it out. Rite of passage level remarkable powers like the Wave of the Fire Phoenix and the Gigantic Spirit Blazing Flame Palm struck the seventh light shroud, but they had no effect.
"What a freak!"
Mo Wen was secretly shocked. The full power of an intermediate stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivator was most likely no more than this. In other words, if an intermediate stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivator appeared here, even if he was not restricted, he would not be able to shatter this light shroud. He reckoned that only a later stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivator could shatter this light shroud with all his might.
Mo Wen had no choice but to unleash the three Glory techniques and rely on the power of the Glory of Thunder. The speed of the Glory of Wind and the craftiness of the Glory of Cloud frantically struck the seventh light shroud. After a few breaths, the seventh light shroud shattered with a loud bang.
The seventh light shroud was already so freakish. The eighth light shroud was naturally much more difficult.
Mo Wen discovered that the eighth light shroud was different from the previous seven. There was another world within it. It actually had profound changes in the laws of heaven and earth. If brute force struck it, 50% of the power would be negated. The remaining 50% would naturally not amount to much.
"If it was an ordinary pinnacle of the Primordial Soul Realm cultivator, they would most likely only be able to sigh helplessly when faced with the eighth light shroud."
Mo Wen laughed bitterly. The defense power of the eighth light shroud was already impossible for ordinary later stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivators to break. Moreover, it could negate 50% of the power. He was certain that even if the Blood Evil Temple Temple Leader appeared here and unleashed the Blood Buddha forbidden technique, he most likely would not be able to shatter this eighth light shroud.
Moreover, the Blood Buddha forbidden technique was a forbidden technique that relied on treasures to unleash. Right now, in this great hall, it was impossible to unleash it at all.
Originally, Mo Wen was still thinking that his Yin Yang Qi had increased by more than half when he was in the Pool of Rejuvenation, so he should be able to easily obtain the highest score in this test.
Only now did he understand that he had greatly underestimated the difficulty of the Path of Creation's test. The Ancient Age Creation Sect's method of testing disciples was indeed not simple. Most of the so-called geniuses of today would most likely be worthless if they were placed in the Ancient Age Creation Sect.
"Fortunately, I have cultivated a similar remarkable power. The Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift is also adept at negating and transforming power. If I unleash it in the opposite direction, it should be able to negate the light shroud's negating power."
A Tai Chi Eight Trigram appeared in Mo Wen's hand. Then, he slowly pressed it against the light shroud. As a small path remarkable power, the Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift was already extraordinary. Moreover, it contained the profoundness of Tai Chi. In essence, it was extremely adept at borrowing and transforming power.
The Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift acted on the light shroud. Immediately, the light shroud trembled slightly. The light shroud emanated a mystical wave that gradually disappeared. In the end, it completely disappeared.
"As expected!"
A look of joy appeared in Mo Wen's eyes. The negating power had indeed been negated by the Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift. He only needed to unleash the power of the pinnacle of the Primordial Soul Realm and he should be able to break through the light shroud.
However, Mo Wen was in a bit of a pickle. His Yin Yang Qi cultivation was only slightly stronger than the average intermediate stage Primordial Soul Realm. Although the three Glory techniques were mystical, they were difficult to cultivate. Right now, he had only scratched the surface. Without the increase in his body's power and the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear, he could not even unleash the power of his soul.
It was almost impossible for him to unleash power comparable to the pinnacle of the Primordial Soul Realm with just Yin Yang Qi and remarkable power.
Although Mo Wen had always been challenging those of higher realms, in reality, at the level of the Primordial Soul Realm, the difference between each minor realm was very large. With his mystical remarkable power, he could still surpass one realm. However, surpassing two realms was too difficult.
Mo Wen's expression kept changing. There were too many restrictions. He suddenly felt like he was at his wit's end. Could it be that he would be defeated at the eighth level?
Deep down, Mo Wen really wanted to break through the ninth light shroud and obtain the highest result. That was because on the Path of Creation, the person who obtained the highest result in any of the tests would receive an astonishing reward. The first test had the Pool of Rejuvenation, the second test had the Power of Creation, and the third test had the Mist of Rebirth. Mo Wen did not know what was in the fourth test either.
Although the Huatian Palace's information was detailed, it was impossible for them to know everything. Mo Wen had known about the Pool of Rejuvenation and the Mist of Rebirth before this. However, he knew nothing about the Power of Creation that could be obtained in the second test. Mo Qingge most likely did not know about it either.
After all, it was too difficult to obtain the highest result in the Path of Creation. The Huatian Palace might not even have one in a few generations. Even the Huatian Palace did not know what rewards the person who obtained the highest result in the second and fourth tests would receive.
However, one thing was certain. As long as one obtained the highest result, there would be great benefits. If one did not obtain the highest result, they would not be able to obtain anything other than passing the test. Although there were treasures everywhere on the Path of Creation, whether one could obtain them depended on one's ability.
"What should I do?"
Mo Wen was caught between a rock and a hard place. No wonder the Huatian Palace did not have any records of the rewards for this test. The difficulty was indeed insane. Under the circumstances that he had not broken through to the Primordial Soul Realm, his Yin Yang Qi was already so astonishing. It could be said that he was an absolute freak. Mo Wen did not expect that with such cultivation, he could not even break through the eighth light shroud.
"Among the three Glory techniques, the power of the Glory of Thunder technique is the most outstanding. However, I have only cultivated it to the third level of the first stage. If I can cultivate it to the fourth level, the Fury of Thunder realm, I will definitely be able to break through the light shroud."
Mo Wen thought to himself. The three Glory techniques had a few stages. The first stage was suitable for people below the Primordial Soul Realm to cultivate. From the second stage onwards, it was a path remarkable power. Moreover, it was a high level small path remarkable power. Without Primordial Soul Realm cultivation, it was impossible to cultivate it. Rumor had it that the third stage of the three Glory techniques was a medium path remarkable power. Its power was even more incredible.
Even the first stage of the Glory of Thunder technique was divided into four levels: Birth of Thunder, Sound of Thunder, Thunderbolt, and Fury of Thunder.
Right now, Mo Wen had only cultivated to the level of Thunderbolt. With a thought, he could birth thunder. He was still a distance away from the Fury of Thunder. Logically speaking, with Mo Wen's current situation, he could cultivate ordinary small path remarkable powers. However, the three Glory techniques were different. The difficulty level far exceeded that of ordinary small path remarkable powers.
For example, if one did not comprehend the complete esoteric rule for thunder, it would be impossible to cultivate the Fury of Thunder. Similarly, if one did not completely comprehend the esoteric rule for wind and cloud, it would be impossible to cultivate the fourth level of the Glory of Wind and Glory of Cloud.
During the battle in Li 'an City, Mo Wen had already comprehended the complete esoteric rule for thunder. However, he did not have the time to cultivate the fourth level of the Fury of Thunder. Otherwise, the situation before his eyes should be easily resolved. (To be continued.)
