I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1221 - 750: Breaking Through with Difficulty, Ambush!
Previously on I Can See Through All Things' Information...
"I never imagined that the Mana channel would remain this grueling to traverse, even after I reached the Nine Tribulations realm."
The middle-aged man, clad in a regal purple Dragon Robe, did not carry an expression of ease.
He had initially assumed that his cultivation at the Nine Tribulations of Primordial Spirit would make this Mana Test Channel a simple task, allowing him to breeze through the obstacles.
Yet, the cold reality proved far more complicated than his expectations.
This specific trial for Mana was significantly more taxing than he had anticipated.
It functioned as a test not just for the raw depth of one's Mana, but specifically for its refinement and the precision of its control.
The middle-aged man in the purple Dragon Robe was particularly deficient in the area of fine Mana control.
Having achieved his breakthrough only recently, he had not been granted enough time to properly temper his power or master it completely.
Consequently, his progress through the preceding stages had been much slower than he had hoped.
"I can't help but wonder what stage the others in the various test channels have managed to reach."
With a dark and somber expression, the man in the purple Dragon Robe vanished as he proceeded into the fourth level.
"At last, the fourth level."
Just as he was making his breakthrough, a graceful silhouette materialized within the fourth level of the Divine Soul Test Channel.
This was Peach Fairy, representing the Pavilion of the Enchanting Immortal.
However, Peach Fairy currently appeared somewhat drained, her complexion noticeably pale.
It was evident that overcoming the third level had been a grueling ordeal for her.
Upon entering the fourth level and confirming she was alone, Peach Fairy produced an elixir. After swallowing it, she began circulating her energy to facilitate her recovery.
Under the influence of the medicinal pill, it didn't take long for her Primordial Spirit to return to its peak, restoring her radiant glow.
"I was perhaps too optimistic, believing that my sect's Secret Technique combined with my natural Divine Soul Talent would make this channel easy to conquer."
Now that her spirit was replenished, a look of complicated emotion crossed Peach Fairy’s face.
Thinking back on the trials of the third level, she realized she had vastly underestimated the difficulties of the Divine Soul Channel.
It made sense why her ancestor had left behind such stern warnings, advising descendants not to attempt this path without first tempering their Divine Soul to an elite realm.
"I wonder about the progress of the others. According to the ancestor's final instructions, the fifth level is where one might cross paths with other participants, so I must remain on high alert."
A sense of unease weighed on Peach Fairy.
She feared her pace was lagging and was anxious about the status of her rivals.
If a competitor—particularly one of those hypocritical, self-righteous types—reached the fifth level ahead of her to set a trap, she would be in a very dangerous position.
Qing Xii, that despicable woman, would surely jump at any chance to end her life.
Therefore, Peach Fairy understood she needed to clear this stage rapidly to reach the fifth level as soon as possible.
Securing the advantage of being the first to arrive at the fifth level was her top priority.
"It appears I have no choice but to dip into my hidden reserves."
With a hint of regret at the cost, Peach Fairy produced a Jade Bottle. After a brief moment of indecision, she resolutely swallowed the elixir it contained.
Almost immediately, the potent medicine took effect, causing her Primordial Spirit Power to surge upward.
With her strength bolstered, she turned her attention toward the trials awaiting her in the fourth level.
"So this is the fifth level? How intriguing."
Over in the Physical Body channel, the imposing figure of Mo Tushan arrived at the fifth level.
He scanned the area, and his interest was piqued when he spotted seven distinct Transmission Arrays.
"The records left by my ancestor mention that upon reaching the fifth level, one can fight against trialists from the other channels. Perhaps I should go find someone to play with?"
After weighing his options for a moment, Mo Tushan made his choice: "Let’s go. Simply grinding through these levels is becoming quite tedious and dull."
With those words, he strode toward one of the Transmission Arrays and vanished instantly.
"I have finally cleared the stage."
After three full days of struggle within the fourth level, Peach Fairy finally achieved victory.
A beam of light descended to wrap around her, bringing a look of triumph to her face.
Still, she couldn't help but feel that the trials of the Immortal Palace were incredibly punishing.
Even with the aid of a Blood God Pill, it had still taken her three days to pass the fourth level.
She worried about the escalating difficulty of the coming levels and whether her remaining supplies would be sufficient to see her through to the end.
"I wonder if anyone has beaten me to the fifth level."
A look of intense caution settled on Peach Fairy's features.
As the pillar of light dissipated, she was transported away from the fourth level.
When her vision cleared, she immediately became defensive before even taking in her new surroundings.
Instinctively, Peach Fairy triggered her Protective Dharma Treasure. Her red silk sash rose from her shoulder, swirling around her to form a complete defense.
To her shock, however, there was no attack. Instead, a deep, gravelly voice reached her ears.
"Just as I suspected; I knew you would choose the Divine Soul Test Channel, Fairy."
"It's you!"
Recognizing that massive, commanding frame, Peach Fairy felt a slight sense of relief.
She forced a seductive smile and spoke in a sugary tone, "So it is Brother Tu Shan. Why must you give a lady such a fright?"
Despite her words, she did not lower her defenses, remaining even more vigilant than before.
This Mo Tushan was undoubtedly one of the most prominent geniuses of the current generation in the Black and White Temple.
Despite her use of valuable resources, he had still managed to reach this point before her.
"My apologies, Fairy. Please allow me to offer my regrets."
Mo Tushan gave her a broad grin. "I stayed here waiting for you because I wanted to ask—does the agreement we made the other day still stand?"
"Naturally, it is still in effect. I would be delighted to have a powerful protector like you by my side, Brother," Peach Fairy replied with an alluring smile. "But tell me, Brother Tu Shan, exactly how long have you been waiting here in the fifth level?"
