Chapter 912: Primeval Mystery Dimension
Starlight enveloped their bodies. Each one of them felt as though they were engulfed in a vast, majestic aura. It was as if they were specks of dust in the universe, infinitesimally small.
According to Mo Qingge, the starlight could detect their potential. The higher their potential, the higher the layer of the G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce that they could enter. Only the one with the most talent could enter the ninth layer. Of course, the Sacred Heart Lady’s standards were not low. Her standards were that of Immemorial Age living beings. Even though the people that could come here were all the most elite geniuses of the ancient martial arts world, in the Immemorial Age, they were most likely only of common intelligence.
In reality, in the past, whenever the Huatian Palace opened the G.o.ddess’s World, most of them would only be able to enter the first layer s.p.a.ce. There were few geniuses who managed to enter the second layer.
Mo Qingge placed her hands behind her back. Her gaze slowly swept past all the partic.i.p.ants. Intentionally or unintentionally, when her gaze reached Mo Wen, her eyes came to rest on him for a moment. There seemed to be a bizarre glow flickering in her eyes.
The G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce was the most ancient s.p.a.ce in existence in this world, and the Huatian Palace had never given up on exploring it. For generation after generation, countless people had entered the G.o.ddess’s World, yet people who truly understood the place were few. It wasn’t just the Huatian Palace; the entire Spirit Realm, Devil Kingdom, Demon Realm, and all the realms in the heavens and earth were exploring the G.o.ddess’s World left by the Sacred Heart Lady. However, no one could claim control over the place. The only thing they could do was send their youths into the G.o.ddess’s World. As for what encounters awaited them or whether they could reap benefits from entering here, it all depended on fate.
When the starlight enveloped Mo Wen, he felt suffocated for an instant. He sensed the energy in his body, including his soul, his potential, and his Qi and blood, boil instantaneously. It felt as though he had been set on fire and was about to explode. At the moment, Mo Wen was on the verge of losing control over his own body.
However, just as his body reached the tipping point, a mysterious place within him shook slightly. This was followed by a strange aura flowing in his body. The next moment, Mo Wen returned to normal and felt nothing. The majestic aura contained in the starlight seemed to have no effect on him anymore.
Huh? What was going on?
Mo Wen was shocked. This seemed to be different from Mo Qingge’s description just now. According to Mo Qingge, the starlight could activate his potential until its maximum limit. Starlight would burn his body continuously until his potential reached its limit. However, Mo Wen felt that his potential had yet to reach its maximum limit. Why had the sensation stopped?
He looked around and noticed that everyone else was still immersed in the experience. He was the only one who had stopped. Could it be that he had the worst potential of all of the partic.i.p.ants?
Mo Wen felt that it was somewhat unbelievable. He had inherited the heritage of a few Mighty Immortal Cultivators. Logically speaking, his potential would not be lower than those from the hidden martial arts strain.
However, once one’s potential had been tested to its limit, the test would end immediately, and the starlight would disappear. Right now, Mo Wen was still enveloped by dense starlight, yet he had lost the sensation.
No one had noticed Mo Wen’s changes, including Mo Qingge. Only Mo Wen himself gradually noticed that there seemed to be a faint glow enveloping his own body, blocking off the vast starlight.
He did not know why such a situation had occurred. It seemed as though there was something in him that was preventing the starlight from detecting him. However, it was impossible for him to ask others about it, so he naturally could not get an answer.
Very quickly, the beams of starlight gradually faded. After all the starlight on everyone had faded, a small glowing stone appeared before each one of them. The stone floated before them, emanating an ancient aura.
Mo Wen discovered that the stone before him was crimson red.
A Crimson Dragon Stone!
Mo Wen laughed bitterly. He never imagined that the standards of the G.o.ddess’s World were so strict. Even with his talent, he was only able to enter the first layer s.p.a.ce.
This stone was a token to enter the G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce. It was also called a Dragon Stone. Dragon Stones came in nine colors, namely crimson, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, and white. Crimson was the lowest rank, and white was the highest rank. The colors represented the Nine Layer s.p.a.ce in the G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce. Since the Crimson Dragon Stone was the lowest level token, those who got it could only enter the first layer s.p.a.ce. The legendary ninth layer s.p.a.ce could only be entered by those who got the White Dragon Stone.
Mo Wen looked around. As expected, almost all the partic.i.p.ants, regardless of whether their origins were from the hidden martial arts strain, the Huatian Palace, or the inner worlds, had received the Crimson Dragon Stone. The only exception was Gu Jingman.
When Mo Wen saw the Dragon Stone in front of Gu Jingman, his eyes narrowed. It was actually a purple-colored Dragon Stone!
The Purple Dragon Stone corresponded to the seventh layer s.p.a.ce. The rest of them were only at the first layer s.p.a.ce, but Gu Jingman had actually jumped straight to the seventh layer s.p.a.ce! Could it be that her potential was that much stronger than that of the rest of them?
There were two people who had nothing in front of them. One of them was Lord Merciless, while the other was Guo Mengqiao.
Having no Dragon Stone in front of them meant that they were not qualified to enter even the first layer s.p.a.ce. Even the first layer of the G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce had its entry barrier. Only by exceeding the barrier could one obtain the lowest level Crimson Dragon Stone. Or it could be said that one must pa.s.s the test issued by the G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce before they could enter the place. Even the Huatian Palace could not change this rule.
When Lord Merciless found out that he was not qualified to enter the first layer s.p.a.ce, his facial expression turned ugly beyond compare. Putting to one side how important the G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce was for him, it was an indelible shame to not be able to pa.s.s the entry barrier. Initially, Lord Merciless had been looking forward to having some strange encounters in the G.o.ddess’s World and thus improving his position in the Blood Evil Temple. But right now, his dreams were shattered by the cruel reality.
Guo Mengqiao sighed softly. He was actually not very surprised by the outcome. Instead, he was rather calm. Before Guo Mengqiao had come here, his master had told him that his talent was limited, and his foundation weakened due to his injuries. It would be difficult for Guo Mengqiao to pa.s.s the test of the G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce. This time, he joined the Heaven List Tournament out of curiosity to try things out. Right now, even though the worst scenario had occurred, it was still bearable for Guo Mengqiao.
A Purple Dragon Stone!
When Mo Qingge saw the Purple Dragon Stone before Gu Jingman, a glint of surprise flashed past her eyes. Her expression turned serious. A Purple Dragon Stone! People who could get the Purple Dragon Stone were rare.
A Purple Dragon Stone! Even those Mighty Immortal Cultivators who had heaven-defying talents and had reached the Divine Soul Realm could at most enter the sixth layer s.p.a.ce and not the seventh. Those who could enter the seventh layer s.p.a.ce were either Divine Souls with heaven-defying cultivation or monstrous geniuses with terrifying talents. Monstrous geniuses like that would most certainly be able to reach the Divine Soul Realm if they didn’t die prematurely.
Of course, the starlight tested one’s talent and not their ability. Since the G.o.ddess’s World could not be entered by force, one could not bulldoze their way in. Hence, a Divine Soul might be far stronger than Gu Jingman, but if the G.o.ddess’s World had determined that their talent could only qualify them to enter the sixth layer s.p.a.ce, they couldn’t possibly enter the seventh layer s.p.a.ce.
It could be said that Gu Jingman had impressed the entire Spirit Realm by being qualified to enter the seventh layer s.p.a.ce. If the news got out, it was likely that countless sects and factions would fight over a genius like her.
The standard set by the G.o.ddess’s World was high. Only people with Divine Soul level talents could enter the sixth or seventh layer s.p.a.ce. As for the eighth layer s.p.a.ce, most likely only ultimate masters like the G.o.d of the Underworld could enter. The ninth layer s.p.a.ce remained a legend. Since the end of the Ancient Age, no one had been able to enter the ninth layer s.p.a.ce of the G.o.ddess’s World.
Gu Jingman getting the Purple Dragon Stone was the biggest surprise for everyone. However, there was still another surprise for Mo Qingge. Mo Wen had actually only obtained a Crimson Dragon Stone! Based on Mo Qingge’s judgment, Mo Wen would have been likely to obtain the second level Orange Dragon Stone. If he was lucky, he might have even been able to obtain the token for the third layer s.p.a.ce.
It did not surprise Mo Qingge to see that ordinary ancient martial art pract.i.tioners could only enter the first layer s.p.a.ce. However, she knew that Mo Wen carried many mysterious forces within him. Putting aside others, the Heavenly Fire level fire would most likely qualify Mo Wen to enter the second layer s.p.a.ce. If Mo Wen’s fire was slightly better than the Heavenly Fire, he might even be able to enter the third layer or fourth layer s.p.a.ce.
However, Mo Wen had only obtained the Crimson Dragon Stone. What was happening? Could it be that Mo Qingge’s judgment was wrong, and the power that Mo Wen had was not the Heavenly Fire?
“This outcome is good too. If he obtained a Dragon Stone that was too high a level, me giving him the Colored Divine Stone would most likely have held him back. Right now, I don’t have to worry about this,” Mo Qingge thought.
She had given Mo Wen the Colored Divine Stone, which was also a token of the G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce. The Colored Divine Stone was also called the Nine Colored Dragon Stone. It was the most mysterious type of G.o.ddess s.p.a.ce token. It was different from the other tokens. The other tokens, be it the lowest-ranked Crimson Dragon Stone or the highest-ranked White Dragon Stone, were all single-use tokens. After being used once, they would disappear forever. Also, they could only be used by the person they were given to, and if they were not used within five years of obtaining it, they would similarly disappear forever.
However, the Colored Divine Stone was different. As a token, not only could the Colored Divine Stone exist forever, it could be used forever. In all the realms, there were no more than ten Colored Divine Stones. They were rather rare and were wondrous, non-perishable items that had been pa.s.sed down since the Immemorial Age.
However, the same person could only use the Colored Divine Stone once. Once they used it, they would never be able to use it ever again.
Mo Qingge and Mo Qingtian both relied on the Colored Divine Stone to enter the G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce. Hence, for them, the usefulness of the Colored Divine Stone had greatly diminished.
She had given the Colored Divine Stone to Mo Wen in the hope that he could use it to have a chance of great fortune. The people who could use the Colored Divine Stone to enter the G.o.ddess’s s.p.a.ce would definitely not leave empty-handed. They would at least have some form of reward.
It was just that when using the Colored Divine Stone to enter the G.o.ddess’s World, they would not enter any layer of the Nine Layer s.p.a.ce. Instead, they would enter a very mysterious s.p.a.ce that could only be entered using the Colored Divine Stone. The s.p.a.ce was rumored to be the foundation of the G.o.ddess’s World’s Nine Layer s.p.a.ce. It was considered the most primeval, most important mystery dimension.
That world had great mysteries and wonders. Legends even told of the Sacred Heart Lady’s most important treasures and inheritances being kept in it. However, since ancient times, no one had managed to obtain an inheritance or important treasure of the Sacred Heart Lady.
