Library of Heaven’s Path - Chapter 2114

After cultivating for an unknown period of time, Zhang Xuan suddenly felt as if a vast ocean had appeared before his eyes. It seemed to be boundless, and there were countless surges of golden Aura of Divinity drifting about within it.

Focusing his mind, Zhang Xuan reached out to grab one of the golden Aura of Divinity, only to find that his body jolted abruptly. In an instant, everything before him vanished like a receding tide. Opening his eyes, he found himself still in the room. The Night Illumination Pearl shone brightly, making it seem as if everything he had seen was just a dream.

“Could it be … an illusion?”

Zhang Xuan frowned.

Ever since he started cultivating, he had never encountered any inner demons. Even if they did appear once or twice, he would take them in as his students. As for illusions, they had never appeared before either. Why would such a problem suddenly occur?

Could it be that there were many mistakes in the cultivation technique he had comprehended?

Flicking his wrist, Zhang Xuan took out an empty book and wrote down the Pathos of Heavens technique.

But before he could finish writing, the book suddenly jolted and turned into dust.

Zhang Xuan’s face darkened.

He had not used any cultivation technique or any other power. All he had done was write down the cultivation technique he had comprehended, but the book was already unable to withstand it.

Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment before taking out a tough alloy from his storage ring.

It was likely to be a material used to forge middle-tier God artifacts. At the very least, given his current strength, it would be difficult for him to bend it.

Thus, he wrote down the Pathos of Heavens technique.

Hu!

But before he could finish writing, the alloy disintegrated into dust as well, as if it was unable to withstand the power of the cultivation technique.

“The Pathos of Heavens technique surpasses the Heaven’s Path Divine Art … The heavens of the Firmament forbid it from existing!”

Zhang Xuan sighed.

He knew the prowess of the Pathos of Heavens technique very well. It could only be stronger than the Heaven’s Path Incomplete Divine Art that he had cultivated previously.

How could the heavens allow such a powerful technique to exist?

“It’s no wonder I couldn’t summon a God Tribulation in the Azure …”

Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly.

Heavenly tribulations were the punishment that the heavens meted out to those who dared to offend them.

Back then, when he had summoned the lightning tribulation, the lightning tribulation had struck Little Chick instead of him. Back then, he had been a little perplexed. However, from the looks of it now, it seemed like his cultivation technique had surpassed the heavens, so the heavens were no longer qualified to punish him.

“Since I can’t write it down, the Library of Heaven’s Path won’t be able to determine whether there are any flaws or not.

All along, Zhang Xuan had been using the Library of Heaven’s Path to look for flaws in his cultivation technique so that he could cultivate the most complete and correct cultivation technique. But at this moment, this situation was about to come to an end.

He could only rely on himself step by step, slowly accumulate, and gradually improve.

He went through the Cultivation Technique that he had just created in his mind once more, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, he took out the pills from the jade bottle and swallowed them one by one.

After cultivating for an unknown period of time …

A series of crackling sounds came from Zhang Xuan’s body as he stood up. His entire body seemed to have grown a lot taller. The energy in his body was surging, more than twice as strong as before.

“He has reached low-tier God realm pinnacle …”

He smiled faintly.

After cultivating for a while, Zhang Xuan managed to raise his cultivation from low-tier God realm primary stage to pinnacle.

If not for the lack of pills, it was highly likely that he would have succeeded.

“However, even if I have the pills, I wouldn’t dare to push for a breakthrough to middle-tier God …”

After reading the books One Inch Ash had left behind, he had gained some understanding of the God Spirit cultivation system.

Given his current state, as long as he had sufficient pills, it would not be a problem for him to push for a breakthrough to middle-tier God. However, while he had been cultivating, he had only managed to raise his zhenqi. His physical body and soul had yet to undergo a complete metamorphosis.

If he were to push for a breakthrough recklessly, his body and soul would not be able to withstand the immense surge of zhenqi, thus putting him in grave danger.

By then, not only would he not be able to raise his cultivation, he would also have a ticking time bomb installed in his body.

Looking outside, the sun had already risen, and it was already close to noon.

Walking out of the room, Sun Qiang walked up to him.

“Young Master, I have already looked into the matter regarding the Aura of Divinity. Just like what Mo Yuan said earlier, there are restrictions on the Aura of Divinity. Those who wish to obtain it will have to head to the Celestial Mountain. However, the Celestial Mountain isn’t a place that one can enter at any time. It only opens once every half a year, and not everyone has the opportunity to enter.

Zhang Xuan frowned. “You have the right to enter?”

“That’s right,” Sun Qiang replied. “The Celestial Mountain opens once every half a year, and a thousand people are allowed to enter at a time. In other words, you have to make it into the list of a thousand people in order to stand a chance!”

Zhang Xuan asked, “When will the next opening of the Celestial Mountain be?”

“Tomorrow …” Sun Qiang replied with a bitter smile.

Zhang Xuan was taken aback. He did not think that the time would be so close. “How can I make it into the list?”

“Those who are below thirty and whose cultivation has yet to reach the level of a god are eligible to enter the Celestial Mountain. However, the selection round has already ended. Unless … you challenge someone on the list. As long as you are able to defeat them, you will be able to replace them. ”

Sun Qiang paused for a moment before continuing. “However, those who have made it into the list have hidden themselves well, so it’s unlikely that they are willing to compete with one another. On top of that, most of them are from major powers, so it won’t be that easy to replace them!”

They were going to enter the Celestial Mountain tomorrow, and they had a chance to become a god. Who in their right mind would be willing to use this opportunity to compete with others?

The difference between a god and a god was simply too great. If they were to miss out on this opportunity, it would be equivalent to losing the opportunity to ascend to the heavens.

“Is there no other way?” Zhang Xuan asked with a deep frown.

He knew that strength reigned supreme in the Firmament, so it should not be too difficult for him and his students to snatch some of the slots. However, they had not done anything wrong at all. Snatching away an opportunity to change the fate of others was not something that they could do.

Sun Qiang replied, “There is. The Sky of Drifting Specters must have thought that a city as large as Twilight City would only be given out a thousand slots every half a year. Thus, the City Lord’s Nether Sanctum has decided to take out another two hundred slots for those who wish to enter the Celestial Mountain. Those who succeed will also have a chance to enter the Celestial Mountain. ”

There were rules in the city, and everyone had to abide by them. However, there were still those who were willing to take the risk.

In order to avoid such trouble, the City Lord had specially prepared such a method.

“Buy? Does that mean that the highest bidder wins? “Zhang Xuan was taken aback.

If that was the case, as long as one had the money, they would be able to buy all of the slots.

Wasn’t this a blatant act of profiteering?

“Of course not. The price isn’t too high, but it all depends on luck!” Sun Qiang replied.

“Luck?” The more Zhang Xuan listened, the more confused he became.

What did luck have to do with it?

Sun Qiang explained, “The slots aren’t put up for sale directly. Rather, it’s similar to a dice roll. A hundred dots will be drawn out each time, and the person can buy any one of them. Those who win will have their slot taken away, and those who don’t will have to wait for the next time. Each dot can only be used to bet on one person. Furthermore, each person can only buy one slot per day, and the result will be announced once the number reaches a hundred! ”

“This …” Zhang Xuan was stunned. Why did it sound like a lottery? He turned to Zhang Xuan and asked, “How much does it cost to buy one slot?”

“It’s not too expensive, but it’s not cheap either. It’s a Divine Coin each time, “Sun Qiang replied.

Zhang Xuan nodded in response.

Based on the value of a Divine Coin, it was unlikely that Twilight City would be able to afford too many slots. This way, he would be able to prevent people from trying their luck.

If a wealthy person wanted to buy a slot, the probability of success was only 1%. In other words, they would have to spend a hundred Divine Coins just to get a slot.

Not only did it give others a chance, but it wasn’t easy to obtain it … it was indeed a good idea.

“Where is the Netherworld Palace? Let’s head over to take a look, “Zhang Xuan said. After taking a few steps forward, he suddenly turned to the others and instructed,” Bring Zhao Ya and the others along! ”

Since they were fighting for the slots to enter the Celestial Mountain, it would be best for them to participate in the event.

Besides, each person could only buy one slot per day. If that didn’t work, everyone could give it a try and see whose luck was better. No matter what, they had to obtain the slots first.

“Alright. However, the Netherworld Palace is located quite a distance away from here. If that doesn’t work, we’ll need at least six to eight hours, “Sun Qiang said.

“Don’t worry. If that doesn’t work, we can just ride a horse,” Zhang Xuan replied with a smile.

After robbing the bandits, Zhang Xuan was extremely wealthy. He had more than a dozen Semi-Divinity realm steeds with him, so it would take less than an hour on horseback to reach the Celestial Mountain.

Without any hesitation, Sun Qiang turned around and left. Not too long later, Zhao Ya, Zheng Yang, and the others arrived at the Netherworld Palace.

Judging from their expressions, they seemed to know what they were going to do.

“Let’s go!”

The group got onto the steeds and set off together.

Just as Zhang Xuan had expected, they arrived at the Netherworld Palace in less than an hour.

After finding a place to park the steeds, the group entered the Netherworld Palace.

The Netherworld Palace paled in comparison to the Ethereal Hall in his previous life. It did not look majestic, but it was extremely spacious, similar to a shopping mall.

As soon as they entered, they saw quite a few people gathered around.

“I have won a slot. Is there anyone who wants to buy it? 50 Divine Coins! I’ll pay it all in one go! ”

“I’ll take it!”

“Give it to me! I’ll pay 51 Divine Coins!”

“I’ll pay 52 Divine Coins!”

A huge group of people immediately rushed forward to buy it.

“This …” Zhang Xuan frowned in bewilderment.

“A single Divine Coin is enough to buy a slot, so there are quite a few people who come here to try their luck. If they succeed, they’ll sell it for a high price. As long as it doesn’t exceed 100 Divine Coins, there are bound to be people who are willing to buy it. After all, even if you have a hundred Divine Coins, you’ll still have to go through the lottery continuously for a hundred days or find a hundred people to buy one of the numbers. Regardless of which, it’s not that easy to achieve, “Zhang Xuan explained.

A 1% chance did not necessarily mean that one would succeed in a hundred tries.

There was a chance that one would succeed on the first try, but there was also a chance that one might not even succeed on the hundredth try.

With a bitter smile, Sun Qiang continued, “As time went by, it became a kind of business. There are quite a few people who study the rules of the lottery to make a living …”

“Study the rules of the lottery?” Zhang Xuan shook his head.

It was no different from the lottery in his previous life.

It was better for them to work diligently, and their chances of winning five million Divine Coins were much higher than winning the lottery.

Of course, there were many people who did not understand this point. There were many who made a living out of it.

Thinking about it, it was extremely similar to the scene before him.
