"The twelfth floor..."
Soul Shadow's expression was complicated. He looked at the astonishingly gifted deity before him and said in a low voice:
"That floor's difficulty is utterly outrageous."
"In all the countless years since the Gray Valley Ark descended upon the Three Thousand Dimensions, only one being has cleared it."
"And that being was unquestionably the greatest creature in the Three Thousand Dimensions across those countless years."
"He may even have transcended and departed."
"More than that, he may be connected to the source of your Divine Path. After all, the Divine Path only appeared after he vanished."
"Mo Hai, Dao Immortal, and Yun Qiannian were all the most extraordinary prodigies in the history of the Three Thousand Dimensions, yet none of them cleared the twelfth floor."
"Honestly, failing to clear it is normal. Being able to clear it is anything but normal."
"Because on that floor, a low Dao-wielding Grade taboo life would face a genuine Dimension-level enemy."

"Though your cultivation is weaker, the difficulty you face will be no less than that faced by a low Dao-wielding Grade taboo life."
"Do you—"

"Young deity."
"Do not think that clearing the first eleven trials means you can dismiss the twelfth."
"The twelfth trial is far more difficult than the eleventh."
"And as for 'Treading Dao,' the only one to clear the twelfth trial, I even suspect that he may be the source of your Divine Path—that he created the Divine Path after transcending!"
Gray Valley First Soul spoke solemnly.
Li Yue's pupils contracted slightly.
