Chapter 601: Supreme Platform
To comprehend a Law from the Tablet of Heavenly Dao, all the partic.i.p.ants were again given the period of two years.
But even so, only five thousand people succeeded in comprehending the Law from the Tablet of Heavenly Dao.
Comprehending a Law was not as easy as it seems, Normally, it would even take tens of years of a martial artist to comprehend a single law. So, five thousand people being able to comprehend a Law from the Tablet of Heavenly Dao in just two years was already worth praising.
Ye Xiao was able to comprehend the many laws in only the period of one month or two months each only because of becoming one with the ancestral dragons or through some fortuitous encounter.
For example, he was able to comprehend the Blood Law through the Drop of Ancient Demon"s Blood. If not for that, he would not have been able to comprehend the Blood Law so easily and so quickly.
After waiting for another three months, the Final Round of the compet.i.tion started. In this round, these five thousand partic.i.p.ants had to compete with each other. This round was divided into two parts.
The first part was where a battle royal will take place. on an extremely large platform. Only when there will one thousand people left will this part of the third round end. After that, a 1vs1 fight will start.
The reward will be given to the top hundred.
Well, the Compet.i.tion of Myriad Worlds ended in the period of three years from the moment Ye Xiao and Lin Hao started walking on the ten platforms.
.....
_Well Of h.e.l.l, Place Of Trial_
Old Man Yuan Shi De, Pygon, and the White Figure were standing while looking in the air. In the air, there was a large water screen floating where one could see Ye Xiao and Lin Hao walking on the platform.
Ye Xiao was walking on the Fourth Platform while Lin Hao was walking on the Seventh Platform.
These three people had seen everything from the very start. On every Golden Bridge, Lin Hao stopped only for a few months, while Ye Xiao was taking longer and longer periods of time with each pa.s.sing platform.
They could see both Lin Hao and Ye Xiao tempering their bodies, souls, and spirit energy, and evolving them into Divine Body and True Essence. As for the soul, both of them already had the Divine Soul, so their souls did not evolve.
The Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Golden Bridges again repeated the same process of tempering the body, soul, and True Essence.
Now, Lin Hao was walking on the Seventh Golden Bridge. The same process was repeated again. Lin Hao was once again walking in the path filled with purple flames, tempering his Divine Body.
It has to say, with each pa.s.sing Golden Platform, the strength of his Divine Body, Divine Soul, and True Essence increased by many folds. It truly benefitted greatly.
As for Ye Xiao, he had just reached the Fourth Platform. Seeing this, Pygon asked, "Lord Yuan Shi De, I don"t understand. Why is that brat, the holder of G.o.d Slaying Sword, pa.s.sing the bridge in just a few months of time while it is taking longer and longer for Ye Xiao to pa.s.s each bridge?"
Yuan Shi De, who was sitting on his throne, looking at every scene with great interest, shifted his gaze for a few seconds to look at Pygon and said, "You are already at the Late Stage of Ancient G.o.d Realm. There are very few people under the entire Heavens who are your match. You are one of the strongest people in the entire Heavens right now. But even so, you are actually not able to tell what is the difference between these two and what is happening here?"
When Pygon heard this, his face flushed red. If he was still in his beast form, his flushed red would not have been seen by the two people in the hall, but right now, he was in the human form. Seeing his flushed red, a knowing smile appeared on the face of Yuan Shi De and the White Figure.
Seeing their smiles, Pygon felt irritated. He said, "It is just a small clone of mine. My true body is still in the Divine Realm, guarding the Place of Fifth Trial. If my true body was here, I would have been able to immediately tell what is going on and why Ye Xiao is so behind that successor of Celestial Sword Emperor."
The two people in the room laughed heartedly when they heard Pygon"s retort. Even always expressionless White Figure was laughing at this moment, causing Pygon to be even more annoyed.
Yuan Shi De then looked at the White Figure and asked, "Yuan Bai He, you are the spirit of my Divine Domain. After my death, my will had given birth to you. So, you should have a much clearer understanding of what is happening on the Supreme Platform. You tell me, why is Ye Xiao taking so long to pa.s.s each Supreme Bridge that is connecting all ten Supreme Platforms with each other?"
It turned out that the White Figure was actually the spirit of Yuan Shi De"s Divine Domain that was born after Yuan Shi De"s death. And its name was Yuan Bai He.
Yuan Bai He didn"t even think as he replied, "I think, in the case of the holder of G.o.d Slaying Sword, the Supreme Bridge Connecting the Supreme Platforms just doing its job just like in the Primordial and Ancient Times. But, in the case of Ye Xiao, there is something deeper going on. As for what is going on, I can not tell. What I can tell is that Ye Xiao is not just receiving the tempering of body, soul, and energy. He is getting much more benefits from the Supreme Platform than that of Lin Hao."
Yuan Shi De nodded his head and said, "Yes, you are right. Ye Xiao is receiving much more benefits from the Supreme Platform than that of Lin Hao."
"Sigh! I"m already dead for hundreds of thousands of eons. If not for my Divine Domain, even this bit of my soul would have dispersed. If I was still alive, I could have easily told what other benefits Ye Xiao is receiving. But now, it is extremely difficult to know!"
"But... it doesn"t mean there is no way to know!"
Yuan Shi De suddenly smiled before completing his last sentence, causing the eyes of Pygon and Yuan Bai He to light up. Pygon immediately asked, "Lord Yuan Shi De, tell us about the way to see through the benefits that Ye Xiao is receiving!"
The old man Yuan Shi De laughed and said, "Well, provide me with soul energy and I"ll use my ability to see through him!"
The two people did not hesitate at all. The two of them immediately started transferring their soul energy into the soul-body of Yuan Shi De.
Yuan Shi De"s body trembled and then, he closed his eyes. Suddenly, a unique mark lit up on his forehead.
If Ye Xiao was here, he would have immediately recognized this mark. This mark was unique to only the people of the Primordial Race. Other than the people of Primordial Race, none of the races under the Heavens has this mark.
After a few seconds, Yuan Shi De opened his eyes and looked at Ye Xiao. It was as if he could see through every curtain, his gaze directly fell on Ye Xiao"s Nascent Soul.
But... even this might gaze was unable to penetrate the body of Nascent Soul. Although Yuan Shi De was able to see Nascent Soul, he was unable to see his Domineering G.o.d Crystal in the small body of Ye Xiao"s Nascent Soul.
Ye Xiao was completely unaware of someone spying on him. Right now, he was laying down on the Fourth Supreme Platform. He was feeling too tired. Its been a few months more than three years since Ye Xiao ascended to the First Supreme Platform and started walking. After all these times, it was normal for him to feel extremely tired, both physically and mentally.
After all, when his body was being tempered, he felt high physical pain and when his soul was being tempered, he felt extremely high pain in the soul. This exhausted his energy, causing him to become physically and mentally tired.
As for the tempering of Spirit Energy and its evolution into the Divine Energy, it was not painful at all. Instead, it was slightly comfortable. But this comfort was not enough to refresh Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao was unaware of being spied on. He was resting for the time being.
Yuan Shi De was shocked to see the Nascent Soul in Ye Xiao"s Divine Sea. He was about to open his mouth to say something when the always closed eyes of Ye Xiao"s Nascent Soul snapped open. It had golden pupils.. It directly looked at Yuan Shi De with its golden eyes.
