Chapter 1108: The Difficulty To Become A Sage (2/2)
”What does that mean?” Mo Wuji frowned and asked.
Meng Ye explained, 'According to the Laws of the Heavenly Dao, any Dao can allow one to step into the Sage Stage. However, only a few Daos actually succeed.”
Mo Wuji came to an understanding. One was theory while the other was reality. He wondered who actually came up with the theory. It was probably nothing more than a guess.
Meng Ye was incredibly astute. He only glanced at Mo Wuji's expression before he started chuckling, ”Dao Friend Mo, you're definitely thinking that the idea that any Dao in the universe can enter the Sage Stage is a hypothesis or a guess, right?”
”Isn't that the case?”
”No, because in the primordial universe, the Laws of Heaven and Earth were extremely clear. All beings could pursue the Dao, and during that time, their cultivation speeds were extremely fast. At that time, there were countless experts that validated their Sage Dao. However, because of the limits of the Dao Laws of the Universe, they needed to destroy their competition. That was the first primordial Cataclysm. Countless experts engaged in war and countless fell. Even the death of Sages was extremely normal…” Meng Ye explained.
Mo Wuji nodded and didn't ask anything further.
Meng Ye explained, ”Validating your Sage Dao now naturally isn't as easy as when the universe first formed. The most famous way to do so is to sever your Three Corpses. [1]”
”Dao Friend Meng has probably tried severing your Three Corpses, right?” Mo Wuji sized up Meng Ye's clone. He guessed that Meng Ye's clone is probably one of the Corpses that Meng Ye severed.
Meng Ye shook his head self-deprecatingly, ”No, if I could severe my Three Corpses, then I wouldn't be sitting here.”
He did not continue explaining about himself. He continued, ”Another way is to have a supreme treasure of fortune. That Huan Ti is one such Sage. Thus, the day he loses his Gods Tower is the day he is no longer a Sage. This is also why I dare to work with you to deal with Huan Ti.”
”You mean that if Huan Ti had truly become a Sage, you wouldn't dare to deal with him?” Mo Wuji looked at Meng Ye and asked.
Meng Ye laughed coldly, ”Dao Friend Mo, your talent is exceptional and your abilities are astounding. However, even if you are any stronger, you would be courting death if you tried to deal with a Sage before you reach the Sage Stage.”
”You mean that only Sages can deal with Sages? Otherwise, you would undoubtedly die?” Mo Wuji did not really accept this. He believed that if he could step into the intermediate or late Quasi-Sage Stage, he would be strong enough to fight Sages.
Meng Ye went silent. After some time, he said, ”It's not that you will die undoubtedly. It's just that the chances of success are extremely slim. There was indeed a past example. A fella that was only in the early Unity God Stage was able to successfully deal with Sage Tong Ming.”
”Tell me about the other methods to validate the Sage Dao.” Mo Wuji knew that if they continued talking about this, it might make Meng Ye afraid of working with him to deal with Huan Ti.
Meng Ye also didn't continue to talk about dealing with Sages, ”There's also using one's world to validate the Dao, using one's Dao Laws and even fully understanding the Dao. There are actually many ways but I only know a few. Although I am one of the 3 Rogue Sages, I'm still 108,000 li away from an actual Sage.”
”Then do you know how to get back to God World?” Mo Wuji asked about Sages because he wanted to know how to deal with Huan Ti. Now that he had a rough understanding of the situation, he was eager to get back to God World.
Meng Ye stood up, ”There are many planes at the same level as God World. However, I know which one you're talking about. Come, I will lead the way.”
…
Meng Ye merely spent an incense's time to bring Mo Wuji and Yue Ming to a space island. When they arrived, Mo Wuji realised that Meng Ye actually installed a transfer array here. From the looks of it, this fella was always ready to head back to God World.
The three used the transfer array and arrived at another transfer array in space. After flying for another 10 days, Mo Wuji's spiritual will located God Continent.
The entrance that Meng Ye took was the same as the one Mo Wuji used previously. From the looks of it, Nirvana Learning Academy wasn't the only one that knew of it.
During the 10 days, Mo Wuji asked Yue Ming about Gods Tower and found out that Ji Li also used Tao Tie Valley to arrive at God World.
It seems like Tao Tie Valley was a linkway between God World and Immortal World. If he could save Ji Li, he could go back and pay a visit to the Immortal World.
