Chapter 395: Trial Ground

Lin Yangyang felt she had already explained all the pros and cons clearly.

If her younger brother still wants to try, she won't stop him.

No matter the outcome, she will protect Chuan'er's life, and as for the path of cultivation, fate will have its own decree.

"Sister, I understand."

Lin Chuan nodded and replied seriously, "I think I can achieve it."

"Alright."

Lin Yangyang said no more, "I will request the sect elders to arrange an inheritance trial for you; once you pass the trial, you can cultivate."

"Um, thank you, sister."

Lin Chuan never expected that the inheritance of the Mediation of Creation method and the One‑qi Transforming Three Purities technique was actually open to all cultivators in the world.

Yet even so, only few cultivators can truly begin.

In that case, its difficulty has risen another level, and its value has likewise surged.

"That guy Bai Li Ming, being able to master One‑qi Transforming Three Purities, is truly remarkable; if given time, perhaps he could also reach the third tier of the Immortal Realm."

Lin Chuan sighed.

Perhaps there are many powerful cultivators in the world, those with extremely high talent, but they are buried by time or swallowed by their lineage and circumstances.

Looking over the entire development history of the Nine‑phase World, from the Primordial Age, to the Ancient Age, then the Early Age, to the End‑Method Age of the Nine‑phase, and finally the Jing Tu Age…

【Early Age】 which is the era Lin Chuan currently lives in, is the peak era where the cosmic rules are most complete.

In this era, two of the strongest Immortals were born.

Lin Chuan himself is an exception, not counted among the two.

The true one is Xia Zi Sword Immortal; after the Heavenly Dao Divine Office dissipated in the early Early Age, he relied on the Sword Path to become the first to ascend the Immortal Realm.

The other is Yang Zu.

Yang Zu was a pinnacle existence in the Ancient Age, but constrained by the cosmic environment, could not ascend to Immortal.

After reincarnating once, he again reached the pinnacle.

Both reached the third tier of the Immortal Realm, slightly weaker than Human Ancestor, but not by much.

From this perspective, Bai Li Ming's talent is high, yet truly limited by environment, leaving little room to manifest.

…

Time flew by.

Seven days later.

Lin Yangyang returned to Zixuan Mountain, "Chuan'er, the elders of the Purple Star Emperor Sect have already agreed and arranged the inheritance trial for you."

"When will you go venture?"

"Right now." Lin Chuan had been waiting already.

These past days he has again refined for seven years in the dream cultivation space, yet still no progress.

He needs an opportunity.

Perhaps One‑qi Transforming Three Purities and the Mediation of Creation method are his opportunity.

"Since you're ready, come with me."

Lin Yangyang turned and left.

The sister and brother arrived at the trial ground deep within the Purple Star Emperor Sect.

The two former Patriarchs of the Purple Star Emperor Sect, Patriarch Hao Ge and Patriarch Xuan You, along with a host of elders, were watching from within the trial ground.

Of course, they did not come for Lin Chuan.

In their view, only Yang Zu has the greatest hope of mastering the Mediation of Creation and One‑qi Transforming Three Purities.

As for Yang Zu's younger brother…

He merely rode Yang Zu's fortune, barely a genius, but compared to Yang Zu, his talent is still far behind.

There is essentially no chance to pass the trial and master the two supreme Daoist arts.

"Chuan'er, you go."

"After entering the trial ground, remember to follow your heart, do your best; whether you can master the supreme art doesn't matter."

Lin Yangyang earnestly reminded.

"Got it, sister."

Lin Chuan nodded, then looked toward the two Patriarchs of the Purple Star Emperor Sect and the many elders, clasped his hands in a bow, "Thank you, esteemed seniors."

This was heartfelt gratitude.

Regardless of the outcome, he has accepted the Karma fortune of the Purple Star Emperor Sect.

"Sister, I'm going."

Taking a deep breath, Lin Chuan stepped into the trial ground.

Watching Lin Chuan enter the trial ground, Lin Yangyang and the Patriarchs and elders' expressions grew much heavier.

"Yang Zu, will your younger brother be alright?"

"He seems a bit reckless, has never practiced Daoist arts, knows nothing of the myriad laws of the heavens, so the chance of failure is probably high."

The elders were somewhat worried.

"It's fine."

Lin Yangyang, confident, said, "With me here, nothing will hinder."

Whether Chuan'er fails or not, she will control everything and clear the obstacles ahead.

"I'm going too."

Lin Yangyang also stepped into the trial ground.

The elders' expressions were complex, each with different thoughts.

If Yang Zu fails, it would be a huge blow to the entire Purple Star Emperor Sect.

"Everyone, don't worry."

Chang Haoge laughed: "At my current realm, I still cannot see through Yang Zu's destiny, which proves that she must ascend to Immortality in this life."

"Yang Zu will not fail."

When Chang Haoge said that, the other elders' expressions relaxed a little.

After all, Chang Haoge has been the strongest aspiring Immortal for the past tens of thousands of years, a person who can ascend to Immortality in a single step as soon as the Immortal seat is vacant.

The Founder of the Mystic Roaming Sect also stroked his beard and smiled: "I am the contemporary founder, and my sensing of the Emperor Sect's qi flow is clearer than that of all of you."

"I can feel the Emperor Sect's qi flow rising rapidly."

"It is definitely the highest peak since I took charge of the Emperor Sect, and Yang Zu's return is destined to bring our Emperor Sect to a new pinnacle."

With both founders saying so, the elders finally put their minds at ease.

"We need not overthink Yang Zu's affairs; she has surely already made arrangements. The one we must consider is Lin Chuan."

"If this kid gets into trouble, it might affect Yang Zu's mindset."

"Regardless, should anything happen, everyone must act with full force to protect Lin Chuan's life."

The elders still cared greatly about Yang Zu's blood relatives in this life.

……

Inside the Trial Land.

Lin Chuan walked forward step by step.

"Seems like nothing special?"

A peculiar road stretched toward an endless horizon, with no signposts; Lin Chuan kept walking along it.

Such changes of world have long become familiar to Lin Chuan.

What does a glance of ten thousand years matter?

Within dream Reincarnation, in today's dream cultivation space, Lin Chuan's time flows like water, and he has grown accustomed to this solitude.

Therefore, few things can stir his inner waves.

Only when he suppresses himself and forgets certain memories can he live like a normal being.

After an unknown length of walking on the endless road of the Trial Land, a change finally occurred: a towering mountain rose.

Lin Chuan could feel a powerful oppressive pressure bearing down.

"Is this testing the stability and strength of my Immortal Soul?"

Lin Chuan did not hesitate, stepping toward the mountain; this pressure had little effect on him.

In a short time, he reached the summit.

At the instant he reached the summit, the surroundings changed again, and an illusory yet real world appeared before Lin Chuan's eyes.

It even gave him a feeling of returning to dream Reincarnation.

With a single thought, he could break free.

But Lin Chuan did not sit; instead, he smiled faintly and voluntarily immersed himself into this world.
