Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques

Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng went straight to Xing Ying’s Cave Mansion.

"Brother Lu, congratulations on once again becoming a supreme peerless genius just now. To become a supreme peerless genius three times in a row, this is the first time in the Heavenly Light Saint Sect!"

Xing Ying was sincerely happy for Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng smiled faintly and said, "Fellow Daoist Xing Ying, some time ago you had the Phantom Clan’s patriarch go to the Illusion Spirit Abyss to look for Brother Lu. I’m afraid the price you paid wasn’t small, was it?"

Lu Changsheng was well aware that, no matter how much of a peerless genius Xing Ying was among the Phantom Clan, so what?

The patriarch of a Chaos lifeform was not someone you could just casually mobilize.

Xing Ying must have paid a huge price.

Xing Ying fell silent.

After a long while, she forced a smile and said, "It’s fine. The patriarch is ultimately still the patriarch of the Phantom Clan. As long as I can become a Chaos lifeform in the future and sit in town over the Phantom Clan, then it won’t count as much."

Xing Ying didn’t say concretely what price she had paid, but Lu Changsheng couldn’t pretend he didn’t know.

"Xing Ying, come with me to a place."

"Go to a place?"

Xing Ying was somewhat puzzled.

But Lu Changsheng also didn’t know how to explain.

So he simply took out his Identity Token, searched for "Black Light Tower," and then showed Xing Ying the information about the Black Light Tower on the Identity Card.

Xing Ying was very curious.

She was only a peerless genius; her authority was not as high as Lu Changsheng’s.

Because of that, she had no idea about any information on the Black Light Tower.

But after carefully reading about the Black Light Tower, Xing Ying was incomparably shocked in her heart.

"Brother Lu, the thousand years you spent in the Illusion Spirit Abyss, you were actually taking part in the Black Light Tower trial?"

Xing Ying understood.

"That’s right, during the thousand years in the Illusion Spirit Abyss, I was in the Black Light Tower undergoing its trials."

"This Black Light Tower trial is a heaven-defying opportunity. This time I’ll bring you to give it a try. Even if it doesn’t work out, you’ll still gain great benefits."

Lu Changsheng said.

But Xing Ying hurriedly shook her head and said, "The Black Light Tower is at the bottom of the Illusion Spirit Abyss. My Mind isn’t as strong as yours; I can’t enter the bottom of the Illusion Spirit Abyss."

Xing Ying had a clear sense of herself.

She was indeed a peerless genius.

But that was only because she was a special lifeform, born with an innate advantage.

In terms of Mind, she didn’t have any advantage at all.

"You don’t need to go to the Illusion Spirit Abyss yourself; I’ll take you there!"

Lu Changsheng’s words made Xing Ying pause slightly.

To go to the Black Light Tower, Lu Changsheng could still bring someone?

How could that not sound confusing?

However, Lu Changsheng wouldn’t lie to her—on that point, Xing Ying was very certain.

After a long moment, Xing Ying grit her teeth and said, "Alright, if I can enter the Black Light Tower, then I’ll give it a try."

Being able to go to the Black Light Tower and take part in the trial—what kind of fortune was that?

Naturally, Xing Ying was unwilling to miss such a chance.

Lu Changsheng smiled.

He directly took hold of Xing Ying’s hand.

"Let’s go."

In the next instant, Lu Changsheng activated the imprint in his body.

"Swish."

Lu Changsheng and Xing Ying’s figures vanished simultaneously.

Immediately afterward, inside the Black Light Tower, Lu Changsheng appeared again.

He looked around and was very satisfied.

"Not bad, the Black Light Tower imprint on me really can bring someone in together."

This counted as a kind of "cheating."

But as long as they could enter the Black Light Tower, that was enough.

As Lu Changsheng appeared, Zi Sang’s figure also suddenly manifested.

"Lu Changsheng, you came back this fast?"

"Wait, this person is..."

Zi Sang saw Xing Ying.

"Zi Sang, she’s my junior sister Xing Ying, a special lifeform of the Phantom Clan."

"Since she’s already come to the Black Light Tower, then according to the rules, shouldn’t she take part in the Entry-level trial?"

Lu Changsheng asked directly.

"What, she wants to participate in the Entry-level trial?"

"No. She didn’t enter the bottom of the Illusion Spirit Abyss by her own power; she can’t take part in the Entry-level trial."

Zi Sang shook his head.

The Black Light Tower trial was not something just anyone could join.

Even many Chaos lifeforms didn’t have the qualification.

Lu Changsheng asked again, "Is the qualification to participate in the Black Light Tower trial really to enter the bottom of the Illusion Spirit Abyss? As I recall, it should be entering the Black Light Tower itself, right? Whoever can enter the Black Light Tower, that person has the qualification to take the trial."

"Now that Zi Sang has entered the Black Light Tower, doesn’t that mean she has the qualification to take the trial?"

Zi Sang’s eyes widened.

It really did seem to be like that.

Whether one reached the bottom of the Illusion Spirit Abyss was not a necessary condition for taking the trial.

As long as one entered the Black Light Tower, it was enough.

But Xing Ying had clearly been brought into the Black Light Tower by Lu Changsheng.

It counted as "cheating."

Cheating or opportunism aside, Xing Ying had indeed appeared inside the Black Light Tower, in line with the rules.

"Fine."

"Letting her take part in the trial is no problem."

"This trial isn’t something just anyone can pass."

In the end, Zi Sang nodded in agreement.

Not for the monk’s sake, but for the Buddha’s.

Xing Ying was brought by Lu Changsheng, so he had to give Lu Changsheng some face.

After all, Lu Changsheng very likely would pass the third-stage trial.

"However, just this once—there will be no next time! If you cheat again like this and bring people in, I won’t give them any chance to take the trial."

Zi Sang also warned him.

"Alright, just this once."

Lu Changsheng nodded in agreement.

He wasn’t going to bring just anyone in.

Thus, Xing Ying began to undergo the Black Light Tower’s trial.

Since Xing Ying was also an Ascension God Cultivator, she likewise had to cultivate the Myriad Sources Root Skill to Entry-level within one year.

Which meant cultivating the first layer.

The difficulty of this was of course enormous.

Xing Ying also went all out, beginning to try cultivating the Myriad Sources Root Skill.

One month, three months, five months, eight months...

In the blink of an eye, a year had passed.

Lu Changsheng didn’t rush to take the third-stage trial.

Instead, he waited the full year.
