Comprehending the Rune
"Persevere, I must persevere." Yang Hongwu thought to himself as he looked at the endless flight of stairs.
If he couldn't even pass the first test, it would be too embarrassing. Moreover, if he couldn't even pass this test, he wouldn't even be able to enter the cultivation room, let alone obtain the recognition of the Immortal God Talisman and become its owner.
Since he wanted to become the owner of the Immortal God Talisman, he had to perform well. How could this little bit of pressure stop him?
Thinking of this, Yang Hongwu's willpower became firm.
If he wanted to become an expert among experts, he would have to go through countless trials and tribulations.
"Solid Rock Heart Sutra!" At this moment, a cultivation technique flashed in Yang Hongwu's mind. This cultivation technique was one that Yang Hongwu had practiced before. All along, after obtaining the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Technique, Yang Hongwu had never practiced the Solid Rock Heart Sutra again. The Solid Rock Heart Sutra was extremely helpful for the cultivation of willpower. Even if one didn't have any magic power and couldn't use their mental strength, they could still practice it. Wasn't it just right for the current situation?
After starting to practice the Solid Rock Heart Sutra, Yang Hongwu felt that his body had recovered its energy. Moreover, his strength seemed to have become stronger.
Here, there was a huge pressure. The strength of the physical body, magic power, and mental strength were all limited. However, after starting to practice the Solid Rock Heart Sutra for a while, Yang Hongwu felt that the pressure seemed to have lessened by a lot.
It seemed that he had underestimated the Solid Rock Heart Sutra in the past.
The heart was like a boulder, and the willpower was tempered thousands of times. When the heart was cultivated to a certain level, there would be a huge change in the willpower.
Yang Hongwu obviously hadn't truly reached that level. In fact, he hadn't even crossed the threshold. The true cultivation of willpower was a very mysterious realm.
The Solid Rock Heart Sutra's test steps were meant to temper one's willpower. A thought flashed through Yang Hongwu's mind. These steps had probably been specially created to temper one's willpower in order to make up for one's shortcomings.
If he wanted to break through the Great Emperor Realm and merge with his true demon incarnation, the Taishang Demon, then he would have to endure terrible pain and have a willpower that was as strong as a rock. However, his willpower was obviously not enough. This was his weakness.
After going through the tempering of these steps, his willpower would be greatly improved. At that time, his cultivation would advance by leaps and bounds.
After figuring this out, the light in Yang Hongwu's eyes became brighter.
Although his body was still very tired, he was full of energy.
Yang Hongwu began to move again. Step by step, step by step, his speed became faster and faster. The Boulder Heart Sutra was madly circulating.
Yang Hongwu realized that willpower was a special kind of power. Although it couldn't be seen or touched, it could still be cultivated.
However, this thing could only be understood and not explained. If someone had told him what to do with willpower, he might not have been able to cultivate it. However, Yang Hongwu had endured a huge amount of pressure here. In addition, the Boulder Heart Sutra had allowed him to comprehend this mysterious power.
There were many special existences in the Great Thousand Cosmos.
The physical world existed, and so did the virtual world. The physical world was a world that could be seen and touched, while the invisible world was an immaterial world.
For example, the spiritual world, or the world where willpower existed?
However, when these immaterial powers were cultivated to a certain level, they could become material.
This was the case for mind power, and willpower could also become material.
It was as if a new door had been opened in Yang Hongwu's mind, opening up a brand new world.
Yang Hongwu's cultivation speed became faster and faster. The speed at which he climbed the steps also became more and more astonishing. 2,000 steps, 3,000 steps, 10,000 steps, 20,000 steps.
After climbing countless steps, Yang Hongwu's speed reached its peak. Suddenly, the scene before his eyes changed.
The originally endless flight of stairs disappeared, and what appeared in front of him was a towering stone tablet. On this towering stone tablet, there were mysterious runes.
These runes were filled with a mysterious power. They were very mysterious.
"Have I passed the first test of the first stage?" Yang Hongwu looked at the towering stone tablet in front of him. The symbols on top of it were the things that Elder Zhu had mentioned before, the things that he needed to comprehend. He had already passed the first test, the willpower test. Now, what he needed to test was his comprehension ability.
As long as he could comprehend the ancient and mysterious runes on the stone tablet, then he could truly pass the first stage of the test.
While Yang Hongwu was in deep thought, Elder Zhu was very surprised.
"This kid is indeed worthy of being chosen by the Immortal God Talisman. His aptitude is actually so strong. His talent is simply inconceivable." Elder Zhu murmured, "Even Master couldn't compare to him back then. This kid actually used less than a day to comprehend the key point and break through the first test of willpower."
In reality, these tests were not set up by the Immortal God. This was the power of the Immortal God Talisman.
When Elder Zhu saw Yang Hongwu's performance, he was indeed shocked. What kind of existence was the Immortal God? He was an invincible existence in the True God Domain. He was a supreme True God King. His talent and strength were unimaginable.
Even Elder Zhu had to spend a long time in this test. However, Yang Hongwu actually used less than a day to pass the first test. He had to admit that Yang Hongwu was really amazing.
"Let me see what kind of level you can reach." Elder Zhu murmured.
At this moment, Yang Hongwu looked at the runes on the stone tablet. These runes looked very simple. However, they did not seem to have any power within them. They were very ordinary. It was as if a child had casually drawn them. This gave Yang Hongwu a headache.
After staring at the runes for so long, Yang Hongwu was actually unable to comprehend them. This made Yang Hongwu extremely annoyed.
"What is the meaning of this? There is no power within the runes. Moreover, these runes are too simple. I can't comprehend anything from just a few strokes." Yang Hongwu bitterly smiled in his heart.
Because his spiritual power and mental strength were suppressed, Yang Hongwu was like an ordinary person at this moment. Therefore, he had been standing like this with his head raised, looking at the runes on the tall stone tablet, which consumed a lot of his spiritual power.
