1572 Ocean of Truth (2/2)
Zhang Ruochen said, ”How many levels of ocean domains have you passed?”
”How many levels? Do you really think it's that easy to get through Ocean of Truth? None of us managed to get through the first level, and only Palace Leader Ling reached the end of the first level. As for us, we fell into the ocean on our way there.” Su Qingling rolled her eyes at how much Zhang Ruochen underestimated the difficulty of Ocean of Truth.
Zhang Ruochen was startled.
All of them were the top talents in a large field. They were literally one in millions, yet none of them managed to get through the first ocean domain.
Ling Feiyu was a mad genius in sword, and she became a saint king in Kunlun's Field where saintly ways were lacking, yet even she failed.
It was almost hopeless.
”Take me there. I'll have a try.”
Zhang Ruochen's interests were piqued by Ocean of Truth.
After all, he could get an additional month of refining, so he needed to try.
”Okay.”
Feng Yan sent out a signal flare, and after a while, a cloud boat came to the edge of Island Kongling, about to take Zhang Ruochen and the others to Ocean of Truth.
The owner of Island Kongling was Feng Xi, a disciple of a God. She was playing chess with a man wearing a Taoist cape.
Feng Yi's cape had cranes and blue sky one it, which made her look above the ordinary. She said while playing chess, ”You've met him yourself. Did he live up to your expectations?”
”Not bad. He's not a reckless person. I saw his performance in Zuling Field, and I heard of his slaughtering in Jingxiang Cliff Dojo. I was worried that he might be fiery and bloodthirsty,” said the man in the Taoist cape.
Feng Xi said, ”Why don't you go meet him yourself? Then you can decide.”
”Not the time yet. And besides, if Shang Ziyan knows I'm here in Truth Heavenly Domain, he might use leverages ten times more now, and then it'll become a fight between me and him,” said the man in the Taoist cape.
Feng Xi said, ”You're saying that you still need to observe him for longer before having more confidence in him.”
The man in the Taoist cape looked at the chess pieces and said, ”He needs to prove that he's worthy if he wants our help, otherwise, who's willing to make enemy with Heaven Field, the most powerful field in the western world?”
Feng Xi said, ”Do you want to head to Ocean of Truth for further observation?”
”Do you really think he can achieve anything after comprehending in the godly palace for only thirteen days?”
Feng Xi said, ”Even if he can't pass the first level of ocean domain, we can see how long he can last at the exit. Then we can assess his potential, comprehension, and power.”
The man in the Taoist cape said, ”I feel like you're very interested in him also, aren't you?”
”Time and Space Descendant, ranked first on 'Saints Merits Rank' and the fiancé of a God. Every single one of these attributes interests me,” said Feng Xi apathetically.
”Seems like we have to finish this game later,” said the man in the Taoist cape.
After a while, Feng Xi and the man in the Taoist cape flew out of Island Kongling and headed toward Ocean of Truth.
…
Many saints gathered on the shore of Ocean of Truth, and they were all here trying to get more refining time.
Zhang Ruochen walked out of the cloud boat and saw ten different colors on the ocean, and there was a light screen separating the two different colors.
Zhang Ruochen saw almost three thousand monks gathering on the shore.
He saw some familiar people: the Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine, Sword Master Dongliu, and some monks from Kunlun's Field, Wan Zhaoyi, Chen Wutian, Buddha Xinshu, Monk Lawless, and Pei Yutian.
The Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine rushed toward Zhang Ruochen, smiled seductively, and said, ”Finally you're here, Zhang Ruochen. Do you think you can pass the first level of the ocean domain?”
”I heard it's very difficult,” said Zhang Ruochen.
”Indeed. The first level is thirty miles wide. I fell into the ocean after only twenty-two miles. I didn't even touch the exit of the first level. I heard it's way more difficult to get past the exit them to get to the exit,” said the Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine.
She was the only one from Shatuo Heavenly Domain who made it on the 'Saints Merits Rank' before Zhang Ruochen arrived, which showed she had greater talents than Wu Hao and Sword Master Dongliu.
However, she had only managed to travel twenty-two miles.
”However, I've only refined in Truth Godly Palace for half a month, so I still have some chance. I'll come here after a year in the dojo,” said the Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine.
Meanwhile, lots of people yelled, ”Deity Wang Xu has got through the exit of the fourth ocean domain, entering the fifth level.”
Zhang Ruochen immediately looked to the fifth level of the ocean domain, and he saw a man in black slowly sailing the Boat of Truth.
