Chapter 1048: Chapter 1048 of the trial by fire begins!


Outside the sphere of light, the stooped old man’s eyes were calm as he looked at the hundreds of thousands of cultivators who had arrived on the bodies of the thirty-nine primeval beasts.
“There’s one more thing I hope you know. Just because you don’t have your past life doesn’t mean that you will be able to gain enlightenment. Everything depends on your own potential and comprehension ability. What the exalted one can do is to assist you and magnify your enlightenment and potential in the trial by fire
“Therefore, whether or not you succeed will depend on your own bodies. In a moment, I will begin the trial by fire. The flow of time in the trial by fire is different from that in the outside world. Ten days in the trial by fire will only take the time it takes an incense stick to burn in the outside world
“The exalted one has never used such methods or such good fortune before. Therefore, I hope that all of you will cherish this opportunity. I also hope that you will be able to gain enlightenment of your past life in this trial by fire, and gain the power to increase your own power. However, as in the past, only planets can participate in the trial by fire, not stars!” When everyone heard what the old man said, the expressions of most of the cultivators in the area changed.
Clearly, the trial by fire was completely different from what they had expected. There was also a huge gap between the previous records and the trial by fire. To a certain extent, all of their preparations had gone down the drain.
Even still, the meaning behind the old man’s words caused everyone’s hearts to tremble. They began to pant, and at the same time, their hearts began to tremble.
There were only a few people whose expressions were the same as ever. They weren’t surprised, but their eyes glittered brightly. It was obvious that they had learned about the trial by fire through various channels, therefore, their hearts were filled with anticipation.
The seventeenth son of the seven spirits sect suddenly flew up into the air and clasped hands and bowed to the old man.
“Senior,”he said, “We cultivators spend our entire lives cultivating, and although we talk about good fortune, we also talk about natural selection. There are probably 100,000 people participating in this trial by fire. If that’s the case… then we can see who has more past lives, but to a certain extent… we’ve lost the will to compete with each other
“That’s right, senior. Junior has the same question. If hundreds of thousands of us participate in this trial by fire, then there will inevitably be friction, and we’ll interfere with each other’s enlightenment. Is that allowed
“Also, if everyone has the opportunity to comprehend their past lives, then this opportunity… can it be passed on to others?”One by one, cultivators who had known about the trial in advance flew out and asked.
These people all had extraordinary cultivations, and their words were filled with ambition. It was clear that their goal was to maximize the gains from this experience, so they had to ask about the details of the rules in advance.
Wang Baole was the same. These questions surfaced in his mind as well. When he saw that someone had asked, he immediately looked at the elder outside the sphere of light.
“All life is equal, and so is opportunity. Whether or not you can succeed depends not on others but on yourself. Isn’t that a good thing? Do you all have to compete for each other’s opportunities?”The elder outside the sphere of light was silent for a moment before he spoke slowly.
“Senior, cultivators of our generation have always acted against the heavens. If we follow the rules, how can we live an exciting life?”
“The so-called equality is only on a level. If I am outstanding, work harder, and have a greater advantage, then why must I force equality with those who are not outstanding, who do not work hard, and who do not have an advantage?”
“Please allow me, senior. In this trial, all opportunities have to be fought for. Only then… will it be considered fair!”Those who responded to the elder were the seventeenth son of the seven Spirit Dao, and the seventh son of the nine Prefectures Dao, there was also the ninth disciple of the Jijia divine emperor and the others.
Wang Baole didn’t say anything, but he agreed with the Elder. He stared silently at the elder outside the sphere of light.
The elder was silent as well. Finally, he turned to look at Guru Heavenly Dharma, who was on the altar within the sphere of light. He bowed slightly. It was obvious that he was waiting for the decision to be made.
Guru Heavenly Dharma, who was sitting cross-legged on the altar, had a profound look in his eyes at that moment. He closed his eyes after a long while. After a few breaths, he spoke with an aged voice.
“I didn’t expect anything in return,”he said. “I only wanted to bring good fortune to all living things… . However, I did overlook your desire to compete with me. Fine… . In my previous life, I needed the help of the light of attraction. Every cultivator who enters the trial by fire will have the light of attraction. The more light there is, the greater the power of attraction, and the higher the chance of success!”
“Guru Heavenlaw is wise!”As soon as the words left his mouth, the chosen who had spoken earlier clasped hands and bowed.
“But there is one thing!”The exalted one didn’t speak anymore. The one who spoke was the elder outside the sphere of light. He swept his gaze across the crowd and spoke slowly.
“The exalted one’s birthday banquet doesn’t like bloodshed. Therefore, for this trial… the murderer must pay with his life!”
The moment the words left his mouth, the expressions of the people around him changed. Some frowned, some heaved a sigh of relief, and some held back their killing intent.
It’s completely different from the trials I’ve gone through previously… Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. As he listened to the words of the elder outside the sphere of light, his past trials surfaced in his mind. If what the elder had said was true.., then this was indeed an opportunity to bring blessings to all living beings.
That was because he couldn’t tell what the Elder was up to. After all, from the moment he and the others had arrived until now, it could be said that they had been receiving gifts.
Regardless of whether it was the dao mark comprehension from before or the trial now, even though there were some dangers, the rewards would still be great. The latter was clearly better than the former.
Furthermore, once he had comprehended the tenth life, he would be given the right to flip the book of Heavenly Fate and see the afterimages of the future. All of this made Wang Baole’s eyes shine with respect, and he bowed his head in acknowledgment.
Just as everyone was doing the same thing, the voice of the hunchbacked elder outside the sphere of light was like thunder. His voice was instantly filled with power and spread in all directions.
“The trial in my previous life has begun!”
As soon as he said that, he raised his right hand and waved it violently. Instantly, a rumbling sound reverberated from the crater below the sphere of light. A large amount of fog rose from within, and finally, it formed a huge vortex that spun continuously in midair between the crater and the sphere of light, it formed into a huge vortex that began to spin.
“All of you, go in!”The stooped old man said coolly. As everyone’s minds spun, numerous figures shot out from the bodies of the primordial beasts they were in. Among them was the ninth disciple of the Jijia divine emperor, he was the fastest, and was the first to charge out, disappearing into the vortex.
The Seventh Dao Child of the Nine Prefectures Dao, the seventeenth son of the seven spirit sect, and the fatty as well as the other prodigies also approached quickly. They all disappeared into the vortex.
Xing Jing Zi, who was dressed in a black robe and carried a large sword on his back, and whose entire body was filled with a cold and murderous aura, followed suit. Xu Yinling and the others also followed suit.
Most of them passed by. In the span of a few breaths, at least a hundred thousand figures merged into the vortex. Xie Haiyang, who was behind Wang Baole, had a glint in his eyes.
“Uncle-master, shall we go over as well?”
Wang Baole touched his storage bag. Inside, there was a pearl gifted by the exalted Heavenly Dharma Lord. His eyes sparkled. He nodded at his words and dashed out. Xie Haiyang followed closely behind. The two of them headed straight for the Vortex and entered it in an instant, they disappeared.
As soon as they entered, Xie Haiyang disappeared from the range of Wang Baole’s spiritual perception. His body was pulled away by an overwhelming force. It was as if he had been teleported away.
Fortunately, the entire process was very short. In the next moment, Wang Baole’s spiritual perception and body returned to normal, and he appeared in a dense fog. He was in an open area that was only a hundred feet wide.
There was no fog within a hundred feet. The fog churned outside the hundred feet, blocking the spiritual perception. However, Wang Baole tried to step in, only to discover that the fog didn’t block the body of the cultivator.
However, there was no sense of direction within the fog, and the divine perception could not be sent out.
Wang Baole did not go any deeper. He quickly retreated a hundred feet, and in an instant, he saw that his body was covered in a layer of faint white light.
After sensing it slightly, Wang Baole’s expression changed. Within the white light, he sensed a sense of warmth that made his soul feel safe and warm.
“The Guiding Light?”
Just as Wang Baole sensed it and muttered to himself, a majestic voice reverberated in the minds of the hundred thousand cultivators in the fog world.
“First day, first life!”
