"You cannot let a third person know about the immortal soul. Or else you will be in big trouble."
Shui Wu Sheng's expression was serious as he added, "Of course, if you have the Holy Kind's protection, then it's okay."
"The Holy Kind's protection?"
Ling Xian shook his head and smiled bitterly. Not only did he not have the Holy Kind's background, but he also offended the Yu Clan and the You Clan.
"It seems like you don't have the Holy Kind's background."
Shui Wu Sheng's gaze froze, "Remember what I said. You cannot let a third person know. Or else even I cannot protect you."
"Senior, do not worry. I know how serious this is."
Ling Xian grinned. The immortal soul was very important. If this news gets out, many powerhouses will come looking for him.
"Not even in my dreams did I think you would be able to stop the wind and fire and pass the fourth level."
"Back then, I reached the fourth level as well, but I didn't even last a second."
"The wind and fire are far too terrifying. They change according to the cultivator's cultivation level. Very few people below the Taoist level can stop them."
"Those who are Taoist can easily stop them. But the wind and fire are useless and cannot open the path to the immortal soul."
Shui Wu Sheng exclaimed and found it hard to hide his shock and admiration.
"I see." Ling Xian softly grinned, feeling fortunate.
At the same time, he was getting more and more interested in the mysterious words.
The wind and fire were terrifying existences, yet the mysterious words could stop them. It wasn't hard to imagine how extraordinary those words were!
"Okay, leave your name on that stone tablet."
Shui Wu Sheng smiled, "Ever since this place opened, you are the only one who has passed the fourth level. You have the right to leave your name."
"Other than me, nobody has passed the fourth level?" Ling Xian was surprised.
"Did you think the first three levels were easy?"
Shui Wusheng glared at Ling Xian and said, "The first test alone can eliminate 99 percent of the people."
"That's true. Senior's battling abilities are out of this world. Even in this era, not many people can stop three moves from you."
Ling Xian grinned. He wasn't flattering him. Shui Wu Sheng's battling abilities were truly out of this world and heaven defying.
"Don't flatter me."
Shui Wu Sheng sighed, "I didn't pass the fourth level, but you did."
"But I failed at the fifth level. If I didn't have the Jade of the Broken World, I wouldn't have been able to return." Ling Xian bitterly smiled.
"Although I have not seen the fifth stage, as the guardian of the first stage, I have some understanding of it."
Shui Wusheng smiled and said, "The fifth stage is not something you can challenge right now. You have to at least be at the peak of the eighth level to be qualified to challenge it."
"Peak of the eighth realm …"
Ling Xian frowned, "Will this place continue to exist?"
"No, it will close in another three to five months."
Shui Wu Sheng shook her head. Seeing Ling Xian's questioning gaze, she bitterly smiled, "Don't ask me about the origin of this place. Even though I am the guardian of the first test, honestly speaking, I don't even know who trapped me."
"I heard this place could be the most dangerous place on the You Ming Continent, the Azure Fountain." Ling Xian hesitated.
"There is indeed such a rumor, but whether it is true or not, there is no way to know."
"The Ten Most Ominous Lands have always been mysterious. Even the invincible Sacred Ancestor might not know all of its secrets."
Shui Wu Sheng softly sighed, "Okay, go and leave your name. This is a great honor."
Then, he flapped around his sleeve and removed the seal.
"Okay."
Ling Xian softly grinned and flew before the stone monument. He fell into deep thought.
His real name cannot be left behind, nor can his fake name, Xian Ling.
After all, he was wanted by the Yu Clan. Yu Jue Chen's mother's clan was the ruler of the You Ming Continent. If he leaves behind the name Xian Ling, it will attract trouble.
"I am a guest in a foreign land. Let's call myself a guest from a foreign land."
Ling Xian softly smiled. He wasn't afraid of attracting unwanted attention. Who would've thought he came from the universe?
Using his finger as a pen, he sliced across the sky.
Instantly, the stone monument emitted heavenly light that transformed into six golden ancient characters that imprinted themselves onto the stone monument.
Guest from a foreign land, fourth stage.
The moment these six characters appeared, the entire place fell into silence. Everyone's heart was in shock and their mouths were wide open.
"My eyes aren't playing tricks on me, right? He passed the fourth stage?"
"Illusion, it must be an illusion. I couldn't even pass the first stage, how can someone pass the fourth?"
"This is far too heaven-defying. He's a monster!"
Everyone was in shock. Though they didn't know much about the second, third, and fourth stages, passing the first stage proved how difficult it was.
Yet Ling Xian had passed the fourth stage. How unbelievable was this?
If it was anyone else, they would be shocked!
"Guest from a foreign land …"
Shui Wu Sheng smiled, "Aren't you from the You Ming Continent …"
"Yes, I am from the Wu Jiang Continent." Ling Xian grinned.
"Why not leave your real name? This is a great opportunity for you to be famous. "Shui Wu Sheng was confused.
"Being famous isn't necessarily a good thing. I simply want to leave a mark."
Ling Xian softly smiled. Staring at the only name on the monument, his eyes flickered with anticipation and desire to fight.
One day, he will return here and turn the four from the fourth stage into nine!
"You don't care about fame or glory. Young man, I admire you more and more." Shui Wu Sheng smiled.
"You have flattered me."
Ling Xian waved his hand. Then, he was a little stunned.
All because everyone was making their moves to leave their name on the stone monument.
Sadly, everyone was asking to be humiliated.
Even the monstrous geniuses who had passed the first stage were unable to make the stone tablet glow and carve their names.
"Stop trying. Only those who passed the fourth stage have the right to leave their name on the monument."
Shui Wusheng spoke indifferently, causing everyone to feel extremely awkward and bitter in their hearts.
"I passed the first stage, yet I don't have the right to leave my name. This is far too cruel."
A man bitterly chuckled. He was also a Heaven's Favorite. Or else he wouldn't have been able to defend against Shui Wu Sheng's three moves. But compared to Ling Xian, he was without a doubt, dim.
Everyone else felt the same way.
Ling Xian was the only one who left his name on the monument. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that he was the eternal Sun that overshadowed everyone else's light!
At least here, nobody could compare to him!
"Since the beginning of time, I am not the only one who passed the fourth stage, am I?" Ling Xian frowned. There were far too many monsters in this world. He didn't think he was the only one who passed.
"Of course not. Based on what I know, since the beginning of time, this place has only been opened three times. Only a few people have passed the fourth stage."
"However, they all died and their names were automatically removed from the monument."
"Therefore, it is not wrong to say that you are the only one."
Shui Wu Sheng softly grinned, "This is a great honor. Doesn't it feel good?"
"I only feel trouble."
Glancing at everyone's jealousy, Ling Xian bitterly smiled, "Senior, why aren't you leaving yet?"
"Haha, those who are not envied by others are mediocre. Someone as excellent as you is destined to be envied by many on your way to the top."
Shui Wu Sheng laughed out loud. Glancing at the monument, he said, "This place has trapped me for more than a thousand years. It is time to leave."
Then, his gaze turned cold and killer's intent filled the air.
"It is time to settle old and new grudges."
