The Disciple Acceptance Assembly
In the blink of an eye, the Ancestral Dragon Clone had been on this Origin Continent for nearly a thousand years. During this time, the Ancestral Dragon Clone had not gone anywhere, but had stayed in the Golden Rock Tribe to cultivate diligently.
Thanks to the clear Law fluctuations of the Origin Continent and the increased comprehension after breaking through to the Void True God realm, although only a thousand years had passed, the Ancestral Dragon Clone had successfully fused all four Fusion Law: the Fire Beast God Path, the Gold Beast God Path, the Earth Beast God Path, and the Wood Beast God Path. It was only missing the Water Space Origin Law to fully fuse the Five Elements Law and the Space Law.
With breakthroughs in the Law, the power of secret techniques naturally increases significantly.
The Ancestral Dragon Clone has now created a top-tier eleventh-order secret technique, and it is not far from creating Twelfth Stage secret technique. With the blessing of the Mechanical Treasure, the power of its Divine Body, and the burst of its Innate Secret Method Bloodburn, the Ancestral Dragon Clone can now unleash the power of a top-tier thirteenth-order technique at full power.
This strength is already quite good among the Void True God. At least Jin Yong, who was previously considered very powerful by Gulanxiu, is no match for the Ancestral Dragon Clone.
A thousand years have passed Origin Continent, and a thousand epochs have passed since the Original Universe of the Universe Sea. During these thousand epochs, Gulanxiu brought the Emperor Xi Game to the Human Race. With the Emperor Xi Game, a game that can test comprehension, the Human Race's talent discovery and training mechanism has become more and more perfect.
With the newly expanded territories gradually stabilizing, the Human Race experienced a small surge in talent during this period.
In the short span of a thousand epochs, several King-level Expert and one Universe Venerable were born, much to the delight of the Human Race's high-ranking officials.
Of course, Gulanxiu no longer cared about these things. With his current strength, let alone the fact that the Human Race had only produced a few King and one Venerable, even if they produced several Universe Lords or even the strongest beings in the universe, it wouldn't be of much help to him.
At this moment, in the Golden Rock Tribe, Jin Yong led the four young men and women from before to the courtyard where the Ancestral Dragon Clone was located, and said loudly to the Ancestral Dragon Clone, "Brother Gu Long! The Guiyun Sect's disciple recruitment ceremony is about to begin, let's set off quickly! Otherwise, we'll miss the opportunity and have to wait another ten thousand years!"
The Ancestral Dragon Clone nodded and said, "Alright! Then I'll trouble Brother Jin Yong to lead the way!"
Jin Yong smiled and shook his head, saying, "There's no need for such formalities between brothers like us! Let's go! Those four little guys can't wait any longer!"
The Ancestral Dragon Clone smiled and nodded, saying, "Then let's go!"
Jin Yong once again took out the ancient Warship, which instantly grew larger and appeared on the Warship. Jin Yu and the other three, along with the Ancestral Dragon Clone, also quickly boarded the Warship.
Immediately afterwards, Jin Yong was seen steer the Warship westward.
After flying for about four days, the group arrived near the Guiyun Sect.
One after another, flying Palace Treasure flew towards the towering peak that pierced the Starry Sky in the distance.
Jin Yong's Warship also successively surpassed those of dozens of True God who were heading alone towards that mountain peak.
After another half day, Jin Yong led the five people to a huge square at the foot of the mountain.
The square was packed with people; a quick glance by the Ancestral Dragon Clone told him there were at least hundreds of thousands of them.
The vast majority of these hundreds of thousands of people are True God, with only a few thousand at the Void True God level.
Of course, there were also several beings who were suspected to be at the Eternal True God Level, whom even the Ancestral Dragon Clone could not see through. However, they were all escorting the younger generation of their clans to this place to participate in the disciple-acceptance ceremony, just like Jin Yong, and they did not participate in the disciple-acceptance activities themselves.
Jin Yong led the five people to a corner and said to them, "The procedure for the Guiyun Sect's disciple recruitment ceremony is always the same. This mountain is called Guiyun Mountain, which is the headquarters of the Guiyun Sect. The first step in the Guiyun Sect's disciple recruitment is to test your will. There are two paths leading up Guiyun Mountain, one on the left and one on the right, corresponding to the Void True God and the True God, respectively. There is a strong Will Impact at these paths. You need to rely on your own willpower to withstand the Will Impact and climb to the mountainside to be considered qualified."
After hearing this, the Ancestral Dragon Clone asked curiously, "Brother Jin Yong, do you know what level of willpower is needed to pass the first level?"
Jin Yong nodded and said, "Of course I know. True God needs the willpower of True God Limit to reach the mountainside, Void True God also needs the willpower of Void True God Limit! So, Brother Gu Long, are you confident?"
Updates are hard to come by, please remember to share 101kanshu. com
The Ancestral Dragon Clone nodded and said, "If it's just the will of Void True God Limit, then there's not much of a problem!"
Jin Yong said with a smile, "So the first test shouldn't be a problem for you. In that case, congratulations to Brother Gu Long on becoming a disciple of the Guiyun Sect."
Upon hearing this, the Ancestral Dragon Clone asked curiously, "Can one become a disciple of the Guiyun Sect simply by reaching the halfway point of the mountain?"
""
Jin Yong shook his head and said, "Of course not. The first test is just to eliminate those cultivators with weak willpower. After all, cultivators with weak willpower generally don't go far, Guiyun Sect naturally won't waste sect resources by accepting them as disciples. Only by passing the second test can one become Outer Sect Disciple of the Guiyun Sect! However, the second test shouldn't be a problem for you, Brother Gu Long!"
"Oh! What do you mean?" the Ancestral Dragon Clone asked curiously.
Upon hearing the question from the Ancestral Dragon Clone, Jin Yong smiled and said, "Because this second trial tests your ability to solve the Emperor Xi Game's Formation, not against a player, but by solving fixed endgame puzzles, which is precisely what Brother Gu Long excels at."
The Ancestral Dragon Clone laughed upon hearing this. Over the past thousand years, he and the other two elders of the Golden Rock Tribe had also participated in the Emperor Xi Game's Challenge. After gradually becoming familiar with the rules, he was able to win quickly each time. As Outer Sect Disciple of the Guiyun Sect, Jin Yong was naturally clear about the Guiyun Sect's assessment standards, which is why he asserted that the second challenge would not stop him.
The fact that the second test was the Emperor Xi Game was not surprising to the Ancestral Dragon Clone. In the original Donghe Wu had mentioned that the Emperor Xi Game was used to screen disciples when various sects on the Origin Continent recruited them.
Moreover, after a thousand years of understanding, the Ancestral Dragon Clone is well aware of the role of the Emperor Xi Game. Although the ability to unravel the Emperor Xi Game cannot fully represent talent, those who are good at unraveling the Emperor Xi Game are definitely not lacking in cultivation talent.
Just as everyone was chatting idly, they suddenly heard nine bells ringing from the mountain in front of them! The sounds of "Dong!" "Dong!" "Dong!" "Dong!" echoed in the air, and everyone felt a sense of peace upon hearing the bells.
Just then, a slightly ethereal voice came down from the high mountain.
"Those participating in this apprenticeship ceremony may now ascend the mountain. True God Level will begin their ascent from the left passage, Void True God Level will begin from the right passage. Only those who successfully reach the mountainside will be qualified to participate in the subsequent assessment! Anyone who fails to reach the mountainside within seven days will be eliminated."
The voice was very soft, yet it entered everyone's Sea of Consciousness clearly, allowing everyone to hear it distinctly.
After hearing this, the Ancestral Dragon Clone walked towards the right passage, while Jin Yu and the other four youths walked towards the left passage.
Just as he arrived at the steps at the foot of the mountain, the Ancestral Dragon Clone suddenly felt a weight on his body, as if a mountain of ten thousand miles was pressing down on him. Even though the Ancestral Dragon Clone had now broken through to the Void True God and possessed Infinite Divine Body with ninety thousand Gene, he could not fly under this pressure and could only climb up the steps one by one.
Several Void True God were already climbing the steps, Ancestral Dragon Clone quickly followed suit, arriving at the top of the steps.
A deafening boom echoed in the mind of the Ancestral Dragon Clone.
The cries of "Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!" kept echoing in the mind of the Ancestral Dragon Clone, trying to influence Ancestral Dragon Clone.
However, this Will Impact was not too strong, only at the True God Limit. With the strength of the Ancestral Dragon Clone, the Eternal True God, it was impossible for it to have any effect on the Ancestral Dragon Clone.
Sensing the intensity of this Will Impact, the Ancestral Dragon Clone quickly strode up the mountain. Although there were seven days to go, everyone knew that the sooner they reached the halfway point, the stronger their will would be, and the easier it would be for the Guiyun Sect to discover their potential and invest resources to help them cultivate.
With his current willpower at the Eternal True God Level, such a small Will Impact on his will posed no threat whatsoever. The Ancestral Dragon Clone moved with incredible speed, quickly surpassing many Void True God and taking the lead.
He walked faster and faster because he discovered that although the upward Will Impact was stronger, the pressure on him was also less. At this point, he was even able to fly.
However, since we're on someone else's turf, it's best to keep a low profile and abide by the rules of the Guiyun Sect. Otherwise, if we offend a powerful member of the Guiyun Sect and are stripped of our entry qualification, we'll be left with nothing but tears.
After spending half a day, the Ancestral Dragon Clone finally took the last step and arrived at the platform halfway up the mountain.
Upon arriving on the platform, the Ancestral Dragon Clone felt a sudden lightness throughout his body. Not only did the pressure on him completely disappear, but even the Will Impact that had been affecting his will vanished. The Will Impact of the Void True God Limit was nothing to the Ancestral Dragon Clone, but it was like having a fly buzzing in his ear. Although it didn't have any negative impact on him, it still made him feel irritated.
A brief Ancestral Dragon Clone revealed that on the platform, against the mountain wall, sat an old man in a long robe with long hair. Behind him stood six young men with terrifying auras.
The Ancestral Dragon Clone sensed the old man's extraordinary nature at a glance. Although the old man had no aura, he would have been easily overlooked by the Ancestral Dragon Clone if not for his eyes.
But upon seeing this old man, the Ancestral Dragon Clone could clearly sense a perfect, unified aura emanating from him—a unique quality that even the Eternal True God he had seen at the foot of the mountain did not possess. Based on this alone, the Ancestral Dragon Clone was certain that the person before him was at least a Chaos Great Saint, and possibly even stronger.
As for the six young people behind the old man, judging from their auras, they were all Eternal True God.
Thinking of this, the Ancestral Dragon Clone respectfully bowed to the old man and said, "Junior Gu Long greets Senior!"
The old man smiled and said to the Ancestral Dragon Clone, "Not bad! Not bad! You are the first cultivator to reach the mountainside in this disciple recruitment ceremony. This shows that you have a strong will and are not afraid of the Will Impact below. Generally speaking, a strong will also means strong calculation ability. In this case, the second test should not be a problem for you. You wait here for seven days. Once everyone has arrived, I will arrange the second test for you."
The Ancestral Dragon Clone quickly replied, "Thank you for your praise, Senior! This junior will do my utmost."
The old man smiled and nodded, saying, "Neither humble nor arrogant, indeed very good! Our Guiyun Sect values geniuses the most, so there's no need to think about hiding your strength. The stronger your talent is, the greater the training you will receive."
The avatar of the Ancestral Dragon Clone nodded and said, "Yes, Senior!"
After nodding to the Ancestral Dragon Clone, the old man fell silent, quietly observing the two passages.
After another half day, another person walked up the passage that the Ancestral Dragon Clone had taken. This person looked to be middle-aged and carried a huge sword on his back. After arriving on the platform, he bowed to the old man and then sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes to rest.
In the following day or two, dozens of Void True God ascended to the summit, while hundreds more arrived at the mountainside via another True God Passage.
However, of the four boys on whom the Golden Rock Tribe had placed high hopes, only Jin Yu successfully reached the mountainside.
Seven days had passed in the blink of an eye. At this time, there were 112 Void True God on the platform, including the Ancestral Dragon Clone, and a total of 5,422 True God. However, there was no one on either of the two passages. All the cultivators who had not come here had retreated.
At this moment, the old man sitting in the chair with his back against the mountain wall suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Let's stop here! 112 Void True God, 5422 True God, so many people have been eliminated in just the first round. Your batch of cultivators is relatively ordinary among all the disciples of past generations."
The crowd remained outwardly calm upon hearing the old man's words, but inwardly they were cursing him. What did the number of eliminated people have to do with those of them who had successfully reached the top?
Fortunately, the old man didn't continue speaking. Instead, he said, "Since no one can continue to the top, let's move on to the next test! My name is Yuluo, and you can call me Great Saint Yuluo."
The second challenge is familiar to you; it's about solving the Emperor Xi Game. I have two incomplete Emperor Xi Game here. The one on the left can be solved by a True God, and the one on the right can be solved by Void True God. You have one hundred days to solve your respective Emperor Xi Game, and then you can become Outer Sect Disciple of my Guiyun Sect.
As he spoke, he reached out and tapped in the air, forming two incomplete Emperor Xi Game in the space. The Ancestral Dragon Clone glanced at them and knew that these two Emperor Xi Game were far more complex than the ones he had solved in the Golden Rock Tribe.
This is normal, though. Cultivators on the Origin Continent are no strangers to the Emperor Xi Game Emperor Xi Game. Everyone knows how to solve it, so the difficulty naturally increases in this situation.
