Thinking of this, Yang Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although his Dao heart, which was affected by the other party's inability to break through the Martial Saint realm, had almost completely recovered, Yang Qi still couldn't help feeling sorry for the Ultimate Martial Emperor.
After all, a cultivator has no choice about where he or she is born. It is undoubtedly cruel for a cultivator to be unable to break through the Martial Saint realm and go further on the path of cultivation just because of his or her birth.
However, this is how the cultivation world is. Even among the cultivators born in the Origin Universe, only a few can finally escape from the cage. In trillions of years, it is already a fluke to be able to give birth to a cultivator at the Martial Saint level. More cultivators eventually become insignificant dust in the long history of the Origin Universe.
As Yang Qi passed the first test, a passage leading to the depths of the cave appeared in the depths of the hall. Yang Qi moved and entered the passage directly.
Walking along the passage, Yang Qi soon discovered the murals on the stone walls of the passage. The content of the murals was very common. Through the content of the murals, Yang Qi learned more about the Hantian Sect and even the Martial Saint who founded the Hantian Sect.
According to the murals, the Martial Saint who founded the Hantian Sect was also a cultivator born in the Origin Universe. He eventually broke through to the Martial Saint, escaped from the cage, and founded the Hantian Sect. Based on these records, Yang Qi also learned that there was only one Martial Saint behind the Hantian Sect, and no other Martial Saints!
After learning this, Yang Qi was somewhat disappointed. After all, there was only one Martial Saint Realm, which not only showed that the Hantian Sect itself was limited in strength, but also that the Hantian Sect's foundation was very limited. Even the Martial Saint Realm behind the Hantian Sect was probably far behind the Yanxing Martial Saint that Yang Qi had inherited.
You must know that Yanxing Martial Saint himself is at the peak level of Martial Saint, and he has ten Martial Saint-level practitioners under his command. With so many Martial Saints, they are definitely superior to Hantian Sect in terms of strength and foundation.
In comparison, the Hantian Sect, which has only one Martial Saint, seems a little inferior to the Yanxing Martial Saint lineage.
The contents of the following murals are even simpler. After the Martial Saint established the Hantian Sect, he set about developing and expanding the Hantian Sect. And because of the presence of the Martial Saint, the Hantian Sect also developed to its peak.
It was unknown how many years had passed, but the last mural ended with the Martial Saint crossing a threshold.
Looking at the last mural, a gleam of brilliance flashed in Yang Qi's eyes, and he secretly said in his heart, "Leap over the Dragon Gate!"
Obviously, the last mural recorded the attempt of the martial saint from Hantian Sect to leap over the dragon gate, but the result was self-evident. After all, Yanxing Martial Saint, as a peak martial saint, led ten martial saints to leap over the dragon gate, but they all failed in the end, not to mention the martial saint from Hantian Sect.
The opponent's failure was totally beyond Yang Qi's expectations. If the opponent had succeeded, Yang Qi would have been a little surprised!
After all, leaping over the Dragon Gate is much more difficult than jumping out of a cage. Even an amazing being like Yanxing Martial Saint ultimately failed. It is almost impossible for an ordinary Martial Saint to achieve this.
Passing through the passage, Yang Qi came to a wide square. In the center of the square, there was a wide arena. Obviously, this test was a test of actual combat!
When it comes to actual combat for practitioners, the aspects that are examined are undoubtedly the most comprehensive. After all, there are too many aspects that limit a practitioner's strength and means. A practitioner who has strength and means that surpass those of practitioners of the same level in all aspects will not be too bad in any aspect.
Whoosh~
Yang Qi moved and came directly to the arena. The next moment, a light curtain covered the arena, and Yang Qi's figure came to a void.
Buzz~
Not far away, a figure quickly solidified, and then an extremely powerful aura burst out from that figure.
"The second level of the peak of Emperor Wu!"
Sensing the fluctuation of Yuanli from the figure, Yang Qi's expression couldn't help but freeze. He knew that the Yuanli cultivation of the opponent in front of him was comparable to his. This should be the most basic test!
A gleam of brilliance flashed in the depths of Yang Qi's eyes, and he secretly thought in his heart, "Not only is the Yuanli cultivation level equal to his, but the power of the Dao on his body also seems to be the power of the Dao of the fusion of the five elements!"
That's right, that figure is good at Taoism, and it seems that he is also good at the Tao of Five Elements Fusion. As for what level the other party has reached in his comprehension of the Tao of Five Elements Fusion, it is impossible to tell for the time being just by looking at the power of Tao emanating from him.
However, Yang Qi did not dare to underestimate the figure in front of him. After all, whether it was the way that the Martial Saint of Hantian Sect left a cave to find a successor, or the test the other party used to select successors, the other party's requirements for finding successors were extremely strict.
After all, judging from the murals left by the other party, he did not cultivate a Martial Saint Realm descendant during his lifetime. This may be related to the small world, so the other party was unable to cultivate a Martial Saint Realm descendant. But no matter what the reason is, since the other party set up such a test to find a descendant with extraordinary talent and potential, he wanted to cultivate a Martial Saint Realm descendant across generations, so he must have higher requirements in selecting successors.
Whoosh~
Just as Yang Qi was thinking, a figure not far away moved, turned into a stream of light, and rushed towards Yang Qi.
"war!"
Facing the murderous figure, Yang Qi did not retreat but advanced, waving the Black Phoenix Sword in his hand and facing the murderous figure.
Boom! Boom!
Accompanied by loud noises, the two figures instantly started fighting each other, and as the fight went on, Yang Qi's expression became more and more solemn.
"The shadow's method..."
Looking at the figure not far away, Yang Qi's expression couldn't help but condense. It was not because the figure's strength and means were so powerful, but that he was familiar with the figure's means!
A gleam of brilliance flashed in the depths of Yang Qi's eyes, and he secretly said in his heart, "The method used by the figure is the method of that Extreme Martial Emperor!"
As soon as the fight started, Yang Qi had already sensed something was wrong. The means used by the figure were almost the same as those recorded in his inherited memories. However, Yang Qi had not yet completely absorbed and digested the inherited memories, so the means used by the other party only gave him a very familiar feeling, and he could not make an accurate judgment in an instant.
However, as the fights continued, the figure's methods gave Yang Qi a familiar feeling. After constantly verifying them with the methods in the inherited memory, Yang Qi finally confirmed that the methods used by the figure were the methods recorded in the inherited memory given to him by the Extreme Martial Emperor.
Yang Qi looked at the figure not far away, a gleam of brilliance flashed in the depths of his eyes, and he said with a slightly surprised look, "This is an opportunity!"
