Chapter 405: The Chaos Long River of Fate (Part 1)
Name: Jiang Ming
Cultivation: Level 15 (Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm)
Points Accumulated: 20110088
Achievements: Seventh Battle Tower, Level 8, Heavenly Ladder step 63
The changes of Jiang Ming’s condition in the Supreme Pagoda were insignificant. He still had about 20 million points. He had used up more than three million for his personal cultivation, and purchasing of goods from the other members in the Chat Group. Everyone was so grateful that they complimented Jiang Ming as the great man they had never met before.
The Seventh Battle Tower, he had yet to conquer the last level. Meanwhile, he had long been stagnant at the Heavenly Ladder. The step 63 was akin to the will of the Demi-Sage. The following step was akin to the will of Saint Dao. Hence, he would need a Saint Soul to achieve that.
Jiang Ming went directly to the Battle Tower after the chat with Ye Qingxian.
On level 9 of the Seventh Battle Tower, it was a big star with a radius of thousands of miles, but it was very barren and lifeless. Jiang Ming landed on one of the mountains.
After a while, Jun Sanqian appeared opposite Jiang Ming and got to his side.
“Awesome!” He looked at Jiang Ming, and he couldn’t help showing surprise and a little shock. “Your soul has transformed into a Saint Soul in such a short period of time. Brother, it’s amazing, truly amazing. It is absolutely rare to have any other person who can be compared to you throughout the great chiliocosm.”
“Big brother, it’s all because of the great fortune here.” Jiang Ming smiled. “With the training in the Battle Tower, the tempering of soul in the Heavenly Ladder, and some other encounters, my soul has been sublimated and condensed into Saint Soul!”
Some encounters?” Jun Sanqian couldn’t help but shake his head. “If it’s because of some encounters, there’d be many experts with Saint Soul everywhere. I thought you’d need to listen to a few sermons in addition to cultivating in the Hongmeng Primordial Land to have that transformation. Anyway, having a Saint Soul can be regarded as a transition of lifeform. Hence, you’ll have authority over your own life from now onwards.”
“You’d need to have Saint Soul only to have authority over your own life?”
“Of course! This is only relative. The great Dao is infinite. In fact, Saint Dao is just a starting point!”
“Starting point?” Jiang Ming was stunned. But he changed the topic. “Big brother, logically I’m regarded as a Saint expert after the transformation of my soul to the Saint Soul. But why am I still capable of entering this Supreme Pagoda? On which standard is this place based on?”
“It’s based on your specialization!” Jun Sanqian explained, “Taking you as an example, you mainly specialize in the Dao of world and laws. Hence, the cultivation base would be counted based on that. With Saint Soul, yes, you are considered as a Saint. But because that’s not your main specialization, it’s considered a special case. However, if you were to specialize in the cultivation of spirit, soul, mind and the likes, you’d be considered a Saint, and would be repelled by the Supreme Pagoda. There are also people who are specialized in the power of physiques, among others.”
“If this is the case, there’s a possibility to take advantage of this, isn’t it?” Jiang Ming asked.
“To take advantage?” Jun Sanqian laughed. “If you weren’t specializing in World Dao, do you think that your soul can undergo transformation first? Taking the case of Luo Heng as another example, if a Saint expert were to take the initiative to temper his physique up to the Quasi-Sage Realm, his cultivation base would be based on his physique. In fact, this place is the best for people who specialize in World Dao to a certain extent.”
Jiang Ming was enlightened. The World Dao mainly focused on evolving the inner world. Hence, both the physique and the soul were secondary. Even if they were improving faster, they wouldn’t affect the level of the inner world.
Even though Jiang Ming was still somewhat confusing, he didn’t dwell on it any further. Because it would be too difficult for him to understand further.
“Big brother, what would happen when my inner world has completed its transformation, and I manage to comprehend Great Overarching Laws, becoming a Great Overarching expert myself?” Jiang Ming asked in a solemn manner. Because it was relevant to his future and about his personal plan.
“When I become a Great Overarching Golden Immortal, can I still enter the Hongmeng Primordial Land? Do I still have the special privilege as the Group Admin?” Jiang Ming continued.
Jun Sanqian suddenly chuckled after a moment of pondering. “Well, I can reveal some to you based on your condition!”
He pointed at his feet. “In the Supreme Pagoda, it’s just a means of nurturing whether you are in the mortal or immortal level. The ultimate goal is to select a real genius.”
“So what’s a real genius?”
“Whoever passed the Seventh Battle Tower or made it to step 63 of the Heavenly Ladder before becoming a Great Overarching expert is considered to have passed the entry level exam, and become a named disciple of the Supreme Pagoda. When he achieves the Great Overarching Realm, he’d receive relevant information.”
“If he managed to achieve both, he’d become an inner disciple, and a core disciple if he made it to step 64 of the Heavenly Ladder. Once becoming a core disciple, his privilege as a Group Admin remains effective, and he can even stay in the Chat Room prior to him transcending the great chiliocosm. However, he will have to step down from the position as the Group Admin when he breaks through to the Great Overarching Realm.”
“His benefits remain. Anway, please don’t share these secrets.”
Jun Sanqian casually revealed the secrets of the Supreme Pagoda.
Jiang Ming was greatly astounded.
To pass the Seventh Battle Tower was akin to having the combat power of a Demi-Sage without the help of any special Dao vessels at Taiyi Realm.
To make it to step 63 of the Heavenly Ladder was akin to having the will of a Demi-Sage at Taiyi Realm. Besides, one had to have a terrific manual of soul or one couldn’t have stepped stably on step 63.
Yet, achieving either one could only be a named disciple.
Damn. If one were to achieve either one, he would have the talent of the Saint Dao He would be capable of sanctifying his Dao and become a Saint if there wasn’t any unforeseen accident.
One could be an inner disciple only if he was capable of achieving both. And such a person would undeniably have a combat power akin to a Demi-Sage, hence basically invincible under the Saints.
