Three thousand children attempt the Tongtian Sect's entrance examination, facing a treacherous Immortal Ascension Array. Many falter under immense pressure or succumb to illusory desires, but Li Chenyang perseveres. Sect Leader Li Zhirui observes Li Chenyang's exceptional talent and considers taking him as a disciple, but ultimately decides on a more discreet approach to resolve karmic ties.

The higher the stone steps, the greater the pressure they bring.

But for those who had already passed six hundred stone steps and were not far from final victory, no matter what the cost, they must succeed in reaching the top!

Otherwise, the pain they suffered from those trials before would be all for nothing?

Therefore, each one of them was giving their all, wanting to pass the test of the Immortal Ascension Array.

However, just when they thought there were no other trials ahead, they suddenly realized the environment around them had changed.

They appeared in a room like a mundane classroom, and they seemed to have turned into a student, with an open book placed before them.

At the same time, they also knew the test of this level.

It was to comprehend the contents of the two pages of the book open before them!

Just like the previous test of the Dao Heart, as long as there was some understanding, or no significant deviation, even a very superficial understanding would allow one to pass.

It’s just that the score would be low, affecting their status after entering the sect.

The content every child saw was the same, which was also the first line of the foundational cultivation technique of the Tongtian Sect, “Upper Pure Heavenly Gang Earth Sha One Hundred and Eight Diagrams”:

‘The Dao arises from nothingness, concealing myriad spirits from measure; the divine condenses in the void, wondrously morphing without form, dim and deep yet calm and bright, grand and profound yet leading to emptiness and stillness, this is the Great Hole.’

Illiterate? It doesn’t matter because it resonated in their minds through Divine Sense transmission, making them remember it.

Of course, even for the cultivators who had achieved the Golden Core, this line from the Taoist Scripture was not considered highly profound.

Hence, ninety-nine percent of the children only had very superficial understanding and opinions.

Only a few children had slightly deeper understanding, though occasionally there were one or two highly perceptive children.

Li Chenyang belonged to this last category.

Although in Li Zhirui’s view, his understanding was too unsophisticated to be worth mentioning, even among the Golden Core disciples, it was quite outstanding.

“Oh?”

At the same time, he discovered another highly perceptive child, and compared to Li Chenyang, there was no inferiority at all.

It was to be noted that Li Chenyang was the reincarnation of a Golden Immortal Great Power, so this child’s outstanding talent was truly his own!

In the blink of an eye, Li Zhirui checked this person’s identity.

“Zhang Que, a beggar, with Three Spiritual Roots, suspected to possess a Taoist Body?”

Looking at this person’s previous test scores, one could say they were quite excellent, not inferior to Li Chenyang at all!

——

However, most low-level cultivators did not have such awareness, resulting in countless cultivators swarm into the Cloud Continent, eagerly showcasing their skilled or unskilled Lotus Seed Skill.

In a short time, this world in the Cloud Continent became much cleaner.

And indeed, in this process, they gained corresponding merit.

Such an easy and simple method exhilarated these cultivators even more, as ending their karmic ties this way required no dangerous confrontations.

To quickly achieve their goals, they performed the Lotus Seed Skill actions faster and more vigorously.

But this situation infuriated another group of cultivators with opposite objectives.

“Damn it!”

A certain Profound Immortal roared in extreme anger, “How come so many cultivators suddenly appeared from Guangzhou, each performing some kind of Purification Method?”

It seriously disrupted their subsequent plans, making some actions impossible to continue.

“It should be the arrangement of the Tongtian Sect Leader.” Bai Ba suddenly said.

Everyone thought so, because apart from them, only this cultivator knew the situation in the Cloud Continent and had the ability to solve the problem.

But no one could understand why Li Zhirui would do this, as it brought him no benefit.

It couldn’t possibly be because he couldn’t tolerate this so-called pollution and didn’t want to get involved in karmic ties, using such a method, right?

They indeed did this initially, and it worked quite well at first, indeed instilling fear in the low-level cultivators, making them wary of approaching the Cloud Continent.

But over time, the effect wasn’t as good!

Those low-level cultivators tried repeatedly and soon discovered a pattern; the high-level cultivators wouldn’t guard the borders, and their responses were slow.

As long as they didn’t linger too long in the Cloud Continent or scattered throughout it, the high-level cultivators would have to rush back and forth, wasting a lot of time traveling.

And they could resolve their karmic ties in the Cloud Continent using this method of betting on luck.

After all, fighting cultivators of the same realm also carried the risk of falling.

No creature was willing to accept such an outcome, let alone the proud Elder Xuan.

But despite countless efforts and attempts, there was still no sign of breakthrough, and ultimately, he had to accept such a result.

Yet, he did not give up!

Since the Immortal Path was blocked and couldn’t be traversed, he would try other paths. Elder Xuan didn’t believe he couldn’t find a solution to his own problem.

So over innumerable years, he used countless methods, acquiring various paths from Demonic Tao, Divine Path, Devil Race, and others, targeting the methods pointing to the Golden Immortal Realm, and dedicated himself to it.
