Chapter 582: The Test Of Willpower 4
Without the ancestral dragons' abilities and the Universe of Heavenly Pearl, it was extremely difficult for Ye Xiao to increase his strength quickly.
Fortunately, he still had the memories of three ancient gods. In this trial, Ye Xiao used the memories of three ancient gods to the fullest and achieved many things in his life.
Ye Xiao didn't know if the experience in the Second Stage of the First Trial could be of any help since this test showed everything about the Azure Sky Realm, Holy Beast Realm, and the worlds of Upper Realm the same he knew, he thought that the things that he saw here and the places, as well as worlds he visited, might really exist in reality.
Anyway, as Ye Xiao's strength increased in the second trial, his willpower also become stronger. At the same time, the hardship that he was facing also increased a lot.
Another fifty years later, Ye Xiao advanced to the Dao Soul Stage of the Dao Manifestation Realm and it was at this time when a great war was fought between the demons of a demon world and the Immortal Spirit World.
Surprisingly, the demon world that fought against the Immortal Spirit World was the Green Blood Demon World.
Ye Xiao was staying on the Green Blood Demon World and because of this, he had no choice but to participate in this great battle.
Ye Xiao had clearly felt the difference between having the Universe of Heavenly Pearl and the abilities of the ancestral dragons and not having them. Without them, his life was incredibly difficult. The things that he could solve easily with the abilities of ancestral dragons became extremely difficult to solve.
Hundreds of thousands of demon minions whom he could kill instantly using the Soul Destruction caused him to spend a great effort to kill.
Using the devouring ability, he could directly increase his cultivation base in reality, but here, he could not do that, he has to work extremely harder to increase his cultivation base.
The wounds that could heal on their own because of the Wood Blossom Bloodline made Ye Xiao swallow precious healing pills to heal.
There were many such examples.
Well, in this fight against the demons of the Green Blood Demon World, Ye Xiao killed hundreds of thousands of demons. But the most terrifying fight was between the Demon Master of the Blood Demon Sect and the dozens of Dao Manifestation Realm cultivators of the Immortal Spirit World.
Ye Xiao was just one of them.
In this test, Ye Xiao also participated in the Competition of Myriad Worlds but he was sent to a different demon world. Because of this, he failed to get his hand on the Heart from the forbidden area.
This caused the Demon Master to get the Heart. And using the Heart, not only did the Demon Master breakthrough to the Dao Tribulation Realm, but he also advanced to the Late Stage of Dao Tribulation Realm in just 100 years. Moreover, his strength was extremely terrifying. No Dao Tribulation Realm martial artist could face him alone.
The Demon Master first united the entire Green Blood Demon World and then launched his attack at the Immortal Spirit World.
In reality, Ye Xiao unknowingly saved the Immortal Spirit World from suffering such fate by taking away the Heart.
Well, the war was extremely terrifying, but at last, Ye Xiao and many other Dao Manifestation Realm martial artists managed to kill the Demon Master but the price he has to pay was extremely great.
More than ten six Dao Manifestation Realm martial artists lost their lives at the hands of Demon Master.
Not only this, countless Immortals died in this war and almost half of the Immortal Spirit World was destroyed. The war really was extremely terrifying.
Ye Xiao was also greatly injured in this war and needed to spend twenty years to fully recover even with the pills he refined using the memories of Ancient Pill God. One can think how seriously injured he was.
Another 1000 years later, Ye Xiao finally managed to advance to the Late Dao Tribulation Stage of the Dao Manifestation Realm. All he needed to do now was to make another breakthrough and transform into a Divine Being before ascending to the Divine Realm.
Time continued to pass. And it took exactly another 1000 years for Ye Xiao to break the barrier of the limit of the Upper Realm and ascend to the Divine Realm.
But... Instead of ascending to the Divine Realm, Ye Xiao found himself lying in the white space.
Although Ye Xiao lived for more than 2000 years in this dream-like test, he never forget that all this was just a test, causing him to be very restless for many hundreds of years. He found his life disquieting because of just this one thought.
He could not help but think many times when the test will end. Many times he wanted to kill himself and see if this could end the test, but he did not do on the thought of what will happen if suiciding will cause him to fail the test!
There were many times when Ye Xiao tried to find the Well Of Hell in the Great Martial World but every time, he failed. In the trial, this was the only other anomaly other than not being able to find the Heavenly Pearl.
.....
Ye Xiao opened his eyes, observed his surroundings carefully, and finally took a deep breath.
"Finally!"
Ye Xiao muttered as a smile appeared on his face. The second test was finally over.
Maybe, in reality, only one year, one month, one day, or one moment have passed, but it could not be denied that Ye Xiao has lived for more than 2000 years. This was a fact and no one could change it.
Ye Xiao also matured a lot and understood many things that were impossible to understand in reality, and with the Heavenly Pearl.
Ye Xiao also found many of his shortcomings and due to this test, he could work on them.
There were also many things he discovered in this test. He now wanted to confirm if everything he saw and learn in this test actually exist in reality or not.
"Congratulations, you have passed the Second Stage of the First Trial. You can rest for half an hour and then the third test will continue."
It was at this moment the white figure appeared and said.
Looking at the white figure, Ye said, "I have some questions to ask!"
The white figure nodded its head. Seeing this, Ye Xiao asked, "Is everything that I saw and learn in the Second Test real?"
The white figure nodded its head and said, "Everything is what it should be according to destiny, but something I noticed was something was not right. For example you, you have the memories of three Ancient Gods and you took advantage of these memories in this test, causing you to rise in power and status."
"But according to your true destiny, you should have died with vengeance in your heart, never being able to take revenge on the Silver Moon Sect."
"But this fate of yours changed when you encountered the Second Universe."
"In this test, I saw you spending many days at the start searching for something at the bottom of the cliff, I think it must be related to the Second Universe, right?"
Seeing Ye Xiao nodding his head with a surprised face, the white figure again said, "There is no need to be surprised. If the Second Universe doesn't even have the power to change the destiny of a single person, how could the Heavens feel threatened because of its existence?"
"I'm not surprised about this!" Ye Xiao shook his head and said.
"Then?" The white figure asked.
"How do you know what my fate should have been?" Ye Xiao asked.
The white figure replied, "Before Yuan Shi De died, he used his Divine Domain as the base for the First Trial. When he was taking his last breath, he used all the strength to seal his everything in this Divine Domain including his abilities. Yuan Shi De was born with the ability to control and manipulate space. And since this Divine Domain is the domain of Yuan Shi De, it has the same attribute."
"Also, Yuan Shi De was the one who set the rules about the trial and how the test would be taken. He used his remaining strength and cultivation base as well as his physical body to change the rules of the Heavens, resulting in the Heavens being enraged, causing Heavens' Punishment to descend and the Upper Realm shattered into many worlds!"
"Wait wait wait!" Ye Xiao immediately raised his hand to stop the white figure from continuing further. The confusion on his face was increased. He raised his eyes and said, "I only asked how do you know what my fate should have been and you are telling me all these things.. You are making me more and more confused. I didn't understand a single thing you told me just now!"
