A Worldline Without a System? Clearing the Third Trial

Where is the system?

Han Xuanji's mind stirred, but he found there was no reaction.

Could it be...?

Is this the timeline without a system in his current life?

"Are they trying to teach me a lesson?"

Han Xuanji pondered silently, but soon realized that things seemed to be somewhat different from what he had imagined.

So what if there's no system?

He brought all his vocabulary-related talents with him...

"Isn't this even easier than having no system at all?"

Han Xuanji initially thought it was a trial, but now it seems like a pure, enjoyable experience?

This is actually a bug in the trial; there's nothing we can do about it, the system's priority is too high.

Since he was in an illusion, Han Xuanji didn't need to think things through or know how to pass the test. He could only do whatever he wanted, or rather, he did many things he had never tried before.

Unlike his real-life counterpart, he directly displayed astonishing talent, becoming the most dazzling prodigy in the history of the Divine Profound Sect, defeating all rivals in just ten years.

During those ten years, he was like a protagonist in a novel, being hunted down and meeting a fairy...

But unlike the protagonists of traditional novels, this is the least manipulative episode, a true example of a game-changer.

Therefore, he achieved an ascension speed faster than he had in reality. Feeling that the Spirit Realm was meaningless, he ascended to the Immortal Realm.

Even in the Immortal Realm, his domineering talent still doesn't need to be reasoned with; he still dominates the game.

Cultivation bottlenecks were nonexistent for him, and his cultivation speed broke historical records. He then killed the Devil Ancestor once again.

Something's not right...

Having reached the pinnacle of Chaos, Han Xuanji began to ponder seriously.

He hadn't thought about it seriously before; he was more "venting" and did many things he hadn't done before.

But to be honest...

I'm getting a little tired of it.

What is illusion? Is this illusion illusory, or is the system itself illusory?

After all, the original intention of this trial was definitely not to make him feel good.

For Han Xuanji, traversing this world was perhaps the greatest illusion; ascending to the upper realm and transcending Chaos... was his process of Breaking Illusion and witnessing his true self.

"Finding the root cause of the system may be the key to Breaking Illusion."

Once Han Xuanji realized this, the illusion suddenly shattered.

Since there is no system in this illusion, it has no meaning whatsoever.

The illusion shattered, and Han Xuanji heard the familiar voice again.

"Congratulations, young friend, you are the first person to pass the Divine Tree Trial since the opening of the Sacred Domain."

The Spirit of the Sacred Domain was naturally unaware of what Han Xuanji had gone through. The original intention of this trial was to strip the test-takers of their external talents and see if they could find their true selves on their own. Little did they expect that Han Xuanji would turn it into a cheat code...

The Spirit of the Sacred Domain naturally did not know that Han Xuanji possessed a full set of max-level talents; it only assumed that Han Xuanji had already traversed the mortal world and Breaking Illusion.

Successfully cleared level 3.

Of course, in reality, they are quite similar.

Han Xuanji was not a descendant of a powerful being from the Eternal Continent, but a true Chaos being, or even a weak " Spirit Realm being," so this challenge was no problem for him.

For him, this illusion was nothing more than retracing his steps.

Looking back now, everything I experienced in that illusion was a treasured experience.

His Dao heart was originally untainted by countless calamities, and this memory merely added a touch of color to it.

"Excuse me, Senior Spirit of the Sacred Domain..."

Han Xuanji nodded slightly, his expression remaining largely unchanged, and asked:

"Am I now able to enter the Immortal Palace? How long did it take me to pass the third level?"

"Of course, having passed the three tests for entering the hall, I am naturally qualified to enter."

The Spirit of the Sacred Domain paused, then said meaningfully:

"Furthermore, you only spent ten days passing the third level. As the first person to clear it, you will receive additional information about the Immortal Palace."

Ten days?

Han Xuanji pondered that he had spent about a thousand years in the illusion.

In other words, one day in the illusion is equivalent to one hundred years.

Although I don't know what other people's illusions are like, this should be considered fast.

If that's the case, then many people may have already passed the second stage?

As for intelligence.

Han Xuanji thought for a moment, "Why not ask?"

"May I ask, Senior Spirit of the Sacred Domain, what exactly is the Ten Directions Immortal Hall, and how can one obtain the inheritance of the Ten Directions Holy Lord?"

The Spirit of the Sacred Domain was not annoyed and slowly replied:

" The Ten Directions Immortal Hall is divided into ten heavens. Each heaven contains the Holy Lord's insights into a certain Great Dao. You can pass through by defeating the guardian puppet or passing the test of the Principle."

Starting from the Seventh Heaven, the Guardian ' strength will be greatly enhanced, and they will no longer be limited to Principle puppets. The Seventh Heaven is a projection of the Heart Devil formed from a wisp of the Holy Lord's remnant will, the eighth Eighth Heaven is the Holy Lord Lord's benevolent thoughts, the ninth heaven is guarded by the Holy Lord's pet beasts, and the tenth heaven is the embodiment of the Holy Lord's will.

Only by defeating all the Guardian or comprehending the ten Great Daos and ascending to the tenth level can one obtain the complete inheritance of the Holy Lord.

Han Xuanji went through the rules in his mind; he realized that the Ten Directions Immortal Hall had so many intricacies.

The Tenth Heaven is the celestial palace seen from the outside, while each of the preceding Nine Heavens is an independent world.

This is no small feat.

" Zhou Yuan should have some information... but can he pass these three levels?"

Han Xuanji is now only worried about whether Zhou Yuan can pass these three tests.

He's supposed to be a chosen one, surely he wouldn't be this bad, right?

"At which level of heaven will the trial participants begin to meet?"

Han Xuanji realized this was a good opportunity to get information out of him, so he quickly asked.

And the Spirit of the Sacred Domain was indeed easy to talk to, replying:

"The rules of the Immortal Palace do not restrict contact between the trial participants. The space of each heaven is vast enough that you can freely explore, fight, and cooperate within it, all depending on your own abilities."

However, there is only one lineage of the Holy Lord, and only one person can ultimately reach the top.

As for how to stand out from the other trial participants, that depends on your own methods, young friend.

The Spirit of the Sacred Domain suddenly changed the subject:

"Your two friends are currently on level three; it looks like it's only a matter of time before they pass."

That's good.

Han Xuanji breathed a sigh of relief.
