Chapter 1577 - 452: Return to the Black Light Tower, Ten Thousand Years of Hard Cultivation for Final Transformation!
Accompanying Xing Ying for a year.
"A year has passed."
Zi Sang’s voice echoed within the Black Light Tower.
Xing Ying slowly opened her eyes.
However, her gaze was filled with disappointment.
"I... I failed..."
Xing Ying lowered her head in self-reproach.
She was also a prodigy.
She prided herself on having considerable Comprehension.
However, the Myriad Sources Root Skill was truly vast and profound.
A whole year, and she couldn’t even grasp the basics, not even a clue.
Xing Ying even thought it might be impossible for anyone to master the Myriad Sources Root Skill.
Yet, recalling that Lu Changsheng had also practiced the Myriad Sources Root Skill and had grasped the basics in just nine months.
Comparing the two, she realized how vast the gap was between her and Lu Changsheng.
"So I failed after all?"
"Actually, it’s quite normal. Many Chaos beings haven’t passed the test."
Lu Changsheng comforted Xing Ying.
"Those who fail the test will be sent out of the Black Light Tower."
Zi Sang said.
"Fellow Daoist Xing Ying, you should return to the Heavenly Light Saint Sect first."
Lu Changsheng said.
"And you?"
"I might stay in the Black Light Tower for thousands or even tens of thousands of years."
Lu Changsheng did not hide this.
Xing Ying was slightly stunned.
Staying this long, naturally, was to accept the challenge.
Xing Ying nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, you must succeed."
After speaking, Zi Sang waved a hand, and Xing Ying’s figure vanished, having been sent out of the Black Light Tower.
The Black Light Tower returned to silence.
Zi Sang looked at Lu Changsheng and said softly, "The path of Cultivation is indeed lonely. Be it master or prodigies, few can stay with your pace in Cultivation. Eventually, even those around you drift away until not even your shadow can be seen..."
Lu Changsheng understood Zi Sang’s meaning.
Reflecting carefully on his journey of Cultivation, who among those around him could keep up with his pace?
No one.
Not a single person!
Xing Ying was indeed a prodigy.
But what of being a prodigy?
No one could keep up with Lu Changsheng’s pace.
Not only Xing Ying, no one in the entire Baihua Domain could keep up with Lu Changsheng.
Some people, after all, will drift far away.
"I understand."
"Let’s start the third phase of the challenge now."
Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and spoke in a solemn voice.
Zi Sang nodded: "Within ten thousand years, transform into a Chaos being using the Myriad Sources Root Skill! The time is tight, the Cultivation task is heavy, you must ensure to give it your all for even a slight chance..."
Zi Sang’s expression was very solemn.
The third phase task, also the final task of the Entry-level challenge.
If successful, Lu Changsheng would have passed the Entry-level challenge.
By then, it would have completed its task and could leave the Baihua Domain.
But whether it can succeed depends on Lu Changsheng.
"Let’s begin."
Lu Changsheng entered the chamber, beginning his formal closed-door Cultivation.
This might be the longest period of secluded Cultivation for Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng was already aware and prepared.
"Alright."
Zi Sang nodded.
Then, Zi Sang handed Lu Changsheng the Myriad Sources Root Skill from the seventh level to the ninth layer.
Within was also the Magic Technique to transform into a Chaos being.
Seeing the chamber doors tightly shut, Zi Sang was also very tense.
"Ten thousand years, hopefully, success will be achieved..."
Zi Sang hoped in his heart.
Inside the chamber, Lu Changsheng began practicing the Myriad Sources Root Skill.
He had already mastered the sixth stage.
But transitioning from the sixth stage to the seventh level requires breakthroughs in time.
Lu Changsheng gave it his all, his True Spirit reflecting each Physical Body Particle, and a terrifying Comprehension frantically enhancing the Physical Body Particles according to the Myriad Sources Root Skill’s method.
In such circumstances, Lu Changsheng’s Cultivation efficiency greatly improved.
One hundred years, three hundred years, five hundred years, eight hundred years, one thousand years...
Time passed swiftly, and a thousand years went by.
Lu Changsheng secluded himself in the chamber, unaware of the passage of time.
But within the Heavenly Light Saint Sect, a thousand years brought some change.
New Entry-level disciples began to emerge.
One prodigy after another was born.
Yet so what?
Lu Changsheng was like a great sun rising across the sky, dominating all prodigies within the Heavenly Light Saint Sect.
One prodigy after another was born, but none reached the supreme prodigy status.
All prodigies were overshadowed by Lu Changsheng.
Even with a thousand years without Lu Changsheng’s presence, his legend still circulated within the Heavenly Light Saint Sect.
Xing Ying occasionally looked towards the direction of the Illusion Spirit Abyss.
Her brows furrowed.
"A thousand years, my first layer of the Myriad Sources Root Skill still can’t grasp the basics..."
Xing Ying murmured softly.
The gap!
She truly felt the immense gap.
Once undergoing the test in the Black Light Tower, not completing it in a year was one thing.
But having returned to the Heavenly Light Holy Land, even utilizing precious auxiliary Cultivation Treasures with her prodigy status.
A thousand years still couldn’t let her grasp the basics of the Myriad Sources Root Skill.
This undoubtedly left Xing Ying in despair.
So what if she was a special lifeform?
Compared to Lu Changsheng, the gap was too vast.
At this moment, Xing Ying truly realized.
She’s probably far from able to keep up with Lu Changsheng’s pace.
Time continued to flow.
Lu Changsheng, in the closed chamber within the Black Light Tower, practiced wholeheartedly with no worries, progressing swiftly.
Eight hundred years, Lu Changsheng broke through to the seventh level.
Three thousand one hundred years, Lu Changsheng broke through to the eighth level.
Six thousand eight hundred years, Lu Changsheng broke through to the ninth layer.
Nine thousand one hundred years, Lu Changsheng achieved the pinnacle of the ninth layer.
By this time, the Myriad Sources Root Skill was absolutely at its pinnacle.
