"Inject the Dao you have comprehended into the ice in front of you."
Just as Yang Qi was thinking, a slightly mechanical voice sounded in his ears.
Hearing this, Yang Qi did not hesitate at all and injected his understanding of the fusion of the five elements into the ice.
Buzz~
As Yang Qi injected the power of the Five Elements Fusion into the ice, the ice immediately emitted a strong fluctuation of the Tao, and this fluctuation of the Tao was exactly Yang Qi's understanding of the Five Elements Fusion.
Wow~
After Yang Qi had completely injected his understanding of the Five Elements Fusion into the ice, a stream of light suddenly burst out from the ice and headed towards the depths of the square. As the light passed, a passage leading to the depths of the ruins appeared in Yang Qi's sight.
"Did you pass the test?"
Seeing this scene, Yang Qi was obviously stunned for a moment. In fact, when trying to inject the power of the Tao that he had comprehended into the ice, Yang Qi had already prepared himself for the possibility that he would not pass the test. But what he did not expect was that he actually passed the test.
"What on earth is going on?"
Yang Qi's eyebrows slightly raised, his heart was full of confusion, after all, his current understanding of the way of the fusion of the five elements was almost the same as before entering the ruins. In other words, in this test, he had no understanding at all. Under such circumstances, how could he pass the test of the owner of the ruins
"Is this test not to examine the practitioner's comprehension or talent potential? But to examine the heart of Tao?" A thought flashed through Yang Qi's mind, but he was not sure about this.
After all, from beginning to end, the owner of the ruins did not reveal more information, so he naturally had no way of knowing why the owner of the cave did all this
Shaking his head, Yang Qi stopped thinking about it. After all, for him, being able to pass the cave master's test was a happy event. Since he had already passed the test, there was naturally no need to worry too much about how he passed it.
Whoosh~
Immediately, Yang Qi's figure turned into a stream of light and went towards the depths of the ruins. Passing through the passage deep in the square, Yang Qi came to a hall.
"This is..." Looking at the walls surrounding the hall, Yang Qi's expression froze.
On the walls around the hall, there were murals carved one after another. These murals recorded a practitioner who practiced step by step from a weak person to finally jumping out of the cage. There were also some records after jumping out of the cage, but Yang Qi couldn't understand these records.
Because the mural depicts an area that looks like an ocean, and the cultivator who had jumped out of the cage before was heading towards the depths of the ocean.
"Being able to come here proves that you have passed my test!"
At this moment, an abrupt voice sounded in Yang Qi's ears. This voice gave people an ancient and distant feeling, and was not as mechanical as the previous voice!
Obviously, this was the voice of the owner of the ruins. The appearance of this voice surprised Yang Qi a little, because he had only experienced two tests. According to the owner of the ruins, he had passed the tests set by the other party. You know, when in the chaotic world, looking at the ruins in front of him, the scale was not small. The two tests Yang Qi had experienced were probably less than one percent of the size of the ruins in front of him.
It was somewhat surprising that he passed the test of the owner of the ruins just by passing through such a small area.
Fortunately, Yang Qi was not an ordinary practitioner, and he recovered quickly. Looking at the hall in front of him, Yang Qi couldn't help but say, "Senior, the second test is to comprehend the ice..."
"Are you asking about the criteria for passing that test?" the abrupt voice came again.
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi immediately nodded and said, "Yes!"
"The standard for passing that test is that there is no standard!"
“No standards?”
Yang Qi was stunned, his face full of confusion, and he obviously didn't understand what the owner of the ruins meant.
"For that test, no matter what kind of Dao a practitioner comprehends, as long as they meet the standard, they can pass the test." The owner of the ruins paused for a moment and continued, "If a practitioner chooses to comprehend the path he is good at, he only needs to comprehend the Dao to a certain level to pass the test. This comprehension does not require the practitioner to learn from the ice, but his own comprehension."
I see!
After hearing the explanation from the owner of the ruins, Yang Qi immediately understood why he had almost no understanding. The understanding of the Tao he injected was the understanding he had before entering the ruins, but he was still able to pass the test.
The test standard is not fixed, but changes according to the path that the practitioner chooses to comprehend, so the standard is naturally different. For someone like Yang Qi, he has already comprehended the path he is good at to a very high level. In such a short period of time, it is impossible for him to have any greater understanding.
As long as the Dao he comprehended meets the standard, no matter whether it is the comprehension in the ruins or the original comprehension, he can pass the test. If he chooses other Daos, then the practitioner needs to comprehend the Dao to a certain level, and this certain level also varies according to the practitioner's familiarity with that Dao, or even the degree of comprehension.
Therefore, there is no clear standard for passing the test, nor does it exist the Dao Heart that Yang Qi had guessed before. This test is just like the surface, it is indeed to test the practitioner's understanding and talent potential. However, this kind of test involves a large number of Daos, rather than a fixed one.
Yang Qi didn’t understand this before, but after being reminded by the owner of the ruins, he now understood this.
"Your understanding of the way of the fusion of the five elements has met my requirements, so you have naturally passed the test I set." The owner of the ruins spoke again.
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi could not help but nod slightly. If what he was examining was not just his comprehension of the Dao fluctuations emitted by the ice, but also his own talent and potential, it would not be surprising for him to pass the test of the owner of the ruins.
“However, the path you are taking is not the path of ice, and it cannot completely match my path, so what I can give you is only the inheritance of a registered disciple.” The voice of the owner of the ruins came again.
I see!
As soon as these words were spoken, Yang Qi immediately understood why he could obtain the opportunity left by the owner of the ruins after only passing two tests, because he only obtained the inheritance of a registered disciple.
Although he was somewhat disappointed, after thinking carefully about the situation of the ruins in front of him, Yang Qi was relieved. After all, the owner of the ruins had already revealed his identity from the beginning. Although the other party was a practitioner of the Martial Saint Realm, judging from his preference for the Path of Ice, he was likely a practitioner who entered the Martial Saint Realm by relying on the Path of Ice. The inheritance he left behind was probably the most suitable for practitioners of the Path of Ice, while Yang Qi was following the path of the fusion of the five elements.
