On the door on the left, it wrote: Enter to test your sacred art. The stronger the sacred art, the higher the points.
On the door on the right, it wrote: Enter to gain insights on a sacred art. If the sacred art is successfully comprehended, no points are awarded. If the sacred art isn't successfully comprehended, then you would be eliminated.
Successfully comprehending the sacred art would result in no points? Mo Wuji looked around carefully and verified that he had seen things correctly. Indeed, there wouldn't be any points for gaining insights on a new sacred art successfully. If that was not enough, he would be eliminated instantly if he failed.
Mo Wuji shook his head. Without any further thought, he decided to walk towards the door on the left. In this Sacred Art Test, he should be able to pass it easily with his Domain Crushing Fist. However, the moment he was right in front of the door, he suddenly felt that something was amiss.
If it was like that, what's the meaning of the door on the right? No one would choose it, right? Mo Wuji stopped in his tracks and walked to the door on the right. He bent down and checked whether there was any further information.
Indeed, when Mo Wuji bent down, he saw a line of minute words. This line of words didn't have any seals on them, which was why his spiritual will easily brushed past it. If Mo Wuji did not take a closer look, he definitely wouldn't have noticed it.
There were only 12 words: Among billions of sacred art, the Passage of Time is number one.
This was a time-law sacred art? Mo Wuji suddenly stood up. His heart started to pound heavily as he got excited.
He didn't know whether the Passage of Time was the truly number one sacred art among billions of sacred art, but he was sure that the Passage of Time was a sacred art born from the Laws of Time.
Even if this time-law sacred art wasn't number one, it would definitely be among the top in the world.
Mo Wuji knew clearly what it meant to be able to scroll a time-law sacred art. His Spatial Imprisonment seemed like a time-law sacred art, but Mo Wuji knew that it was space-law sacred art. Moreover, it was merely a strand of hair in the Laws of Space.
Even if it meant that he couldn't enter Nirvana Learning Academy, Mo Wuji definitely wasn't going to give up on this chance to gain insights on a time-law sacred art.
Mo Wuji did not hesitate as he directly walked into the door on the right. To him, points weren't important. The most important thing to him know was have some contact with the Laws of Time and possessing his own time-law sacred art.
The moment he entered the door, Mo Wuji felt as though his entire body had gone missing. It gave him the impression that only his mind had entered the door while his body was left outside.
Only after a few breaths, Mo Wuji finally felt that he was truly standing in this passage made of the Laws of Time.
At this moment, the flow of time seemed tangible and could be caught with his own two hands. Flowing time was like flowing water; it brushed across his body, taking away years, taking away everything…
With every step that he took, it felt like he was crossing countless of ages.
Although Mo Wuji's body was already at the Half-Saint Physique, it still gradually decayed under the constant washing of time. His hair slowly turned grey, his thoughts gradually turned old, and his clothes slowly turned into dust…
Mo Wuji sat down. This definitely wasn't an illusion. He had a feeling that if he continued to walk forward, he would turn into rotten word and disintegrate into nothingness.
He slowly closed his eyes and allowed the flowing time to brush across his body. All his meridians went into reverse circulation around his dao revelation channel, forming a dao revelation circulation. He was searching for the source of time.
Mo Wuji believed that if he was unable to comprehend the Passage of Time and understand the Laws of Time, he might actually die of old age here.
Each strand of dao insights was caught by Mo Wuji's dao revelation channel. He continuously formed hand seals; at one point in time, he formed more than a thousand hand seals within a single breath of time.
Time continued to pass as Mo Wuji sunk into rumination. His skin turned wrinkled and his hair turned white from its roots…
As Mo Wuji's young body turned older, an aura of decay oozed out of his body. His hand seals went from fast to slow. In the beginning, he could do thousands of hand seals in a single breath, then it became tens, then it became one hand seal per breath, to one hand seal every few hours, to one hand seal a day, to one hand seal a month…
…
”Star Concealing Mountain's Ji Feiyan's 479 points has charged to the first place. He should have passed the sixth test already. Why isn't that Rogue Cultivator 2705's points moving?”
”Ao Clan's Ao Rong's 454 points has charged to the second spot. Rogue Cultivator 2705 has dropped to third place… Now, he's at fourth place…”
On Nirvana Dao City Plaza, there were sounds of astonishment, sounds of pity, and even sounds of celebration. There were all due to Rogue Cultivator 2705's freefall. In the first five rounds, not only was he the first to complete, his points were also at the top. But now, many people had passed the sixth test while no news was heard from Rogue Cultivator 2705.
”He should have failed his sixth test and had been transported out, right?” Someone asked questioningly.
