In a blink of an eye, three days have passed.
Xi Yue used Zi Ming You Luo's spiritual energy shielding ability and once again quietly left Yun Tianyi's palace and came to the Holy Maiden Palace.
This round of selection does not allow everyone to watch like the first round.
The only people who could watch were those from the Priest's Palace and the Council of Elders, as well as some people with high cultivation or family background.
The Great Elder, with his usual expressionless face, introduced the rules of this selection in a concise and clear manner.
The content of the second selection is to pray for blessings and create spirits.
If the focus of the first trial was destruction, then the focus of the second was life.
Each of the six candidates for the sainthood will be placed on a piece of barren land.
This barren land is very vast. There is no spiritual power on it. The land is desertified and no grass grows.
What the six of them have to do is to restore life to this barren land of a hundred miles.
When they heard this request, they all breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that today's task was much simpler than yesterday's.
You know, cultivators who possess wood spiritual roots have the ability to make plants grow.
Making dead trees come back to life in spring, making weeds grow wildly, and making flowers bloom instantly, this is what a powerful wood-type cultivator can do.
Although it is not easy to restore life to the barren land, it is not impossible as long as enough spiritual power is injected into it.
But the next words from the Great Elder shattered their beautiful thoughts.
"In addition, there is one more requirement. You must restore the vitality of this barren land within a radius of 100 miles in one go. You cannot stop to rest or take elixirs in the middle, and the total time cannot exceed half an hour."
"What?! How is this possible?!" Someone immediately exclaimed, "That's a hundred miles in radius! How is it possible to do this without adjusting spiritual power or taking elixirs? Even a Divine Lord-level cultivator doesn't have such abundant spiritual power to squander!"
The great elder still had no expression on his face. He looked at the female cultivator who asked the question and said, "Then do you know how much land the Saint needs to control?"
"That is the entire God's Domain and the three thousand planes of the world. A true saint possesses the power to revive the three thousand planes of the world at the same time. If you can't even restore vitality in a small area of a hundred miles, how can you bring hope to the three thousand worlds?"
The female cultivator who said this immediately blushed and dared not say anything more.
The great elder added: "The danger of praying for blessings and creating spirits is even greater than killing evil creatures. Even I can't save you in time. So you'd better think it through. If you feel that you can't do it, it's better to withdraw early. Otherwise, you will be backlashed during the period. At the least, your cultivation will regress, and at the worst, your life will be in danger."
The expressions of several female practitioners were a little grim, but in the end everyone participated.
They had come here with great difficulty to slay the evil creatures, so how could they retreat so easily
Jun Mulan looked at Xi Yue and said, "Sister Yuexi, did you hear what the Great Elder said? Praying for the Creation of Spirits is very dangerous. Are you really not going to quit?"
Xi Yue glanced at her sideways, and said with a half-smile: "Ms. Jun, if I remember correctly, my performance in the first round of selection was not worse than yours, right? Why do you feel that I will definitely fail in something that you can do?"
"You!" Jun Mulan's gentle expression finally couldn't be maintained. "I'm just trying to persuade you with good intentions. Why are you so aggressive?"
Xi Yue curled her lips and stopped talking. (To be continued)
