C1657 Five Hundred Years
1657. 500 years.
"Eh..."
When Hsiang Yang entered the spatial zone, he could clearly feel the spatial force circulating. It was as if the stars were moving, and he felt a wave of dizziness, but it soon disappeared.
When the light reappeared in front of his eyes and he stepped on the ground... He discovered that everyone who followed him into the spatial zone had disappeared. He was the only one left in the entire spatial zone. The surroundings were empty and there was no other aura. It was as if... He was the only one in the entire world... Other than that... There were no other living beings in the world.
"A sealed small world? Everyone is different, what kind of test is this?"
Hsiang Yang stared blankly at his surroundings. He didn't sense the content of the test, but the one in front of him... It was just an empty space. Everything else was gone. Could it be that he wanted to break open this small world and leave? It seemed impossible. If he said it was a test of his character, he definitely wouldn't let anyone leave this small world. Furthermore, it wasn't easy to leave either.
No, if he wanted to leave, he could. However, he needed to spend some effort, but before he could figure out the Profound Maiden Palace's test... He still needed to hide his figure. Naturally, Hsiang Yang didn't want to show his outstanding performance like this.
"As a cultivator, he might have endless lifespan. In that case, loneliness is unavoidable on the path of cultivation. If a person wants to have great achievements, he must first endure the loneliness brought by the passing of time. The first test was called Silent Silence. There was no time or space here. There was only one person and endless loneliness. When you couldn't bear the loneliness, all you had to do was shout and admit defeat. Naturally, you can be teleported away. However, after leaving... This also means that you have lost the qualification to continue participating in the test."
When Hsiang Yang was bored to death and looked around, a voice was heard. It sounded like a mechanical electronic voice. Of course. This was not the main point. The real point was that the content of this sound was to announce the rules of the test.
Hsiang Yang frowned and said softly. " The Profound Maiden Palace is interesting. Is it possible to withstand loneliness? Heh, if you can't bear it, you won't admit defeat at the first possible moment. Wouldn't that make them crazy? They were afraid that after this round... Who knew how many people would go crazy? Only the Profound Maiden Palace would dare to do such a thing. Otherwise, the powers behind those people who had gone crazy wouldn't let this matter go easily. Unfortunately, the Profound Maiden Palace was incomparably domineering. They were not afraid of any forces. Otherwise, they would have been able to watch a good show."
However, it seemed like none of this had anything to do with Hsiang Yang. What he needed to do next was to have a good time in the tests of Profound Maiden Palace. If he could find something interesting, he would be happy. If he was bored, he shouldn't clear the level so quickly. He deeply understood that it wasn't a good thing to show off too much.
"However, if the flow of time in this small world exceeds that of the outside world, then it will be interesting. It will depend on how much time you can give me. I hope you can give me more time."
Hsiang Yang chuckled. He suddenly felt that the first round of the test of Profound Maiden Palace was a free cultivation benefit for him.
Obviously, this was an illusory space, a very brilliant illusory space. It made it impossible to tell whether it was real or fake. Thus, one would be unable to endure the endless loneliness brought about by the passage of time.
However, to Hsiang Yang, all of this was a benefit.
There was no time flowing in the illusion realm. That was relative. Since he had to endure the endless loneliness, he naturally had to give people the feeling that endless time had passed. As the saying went, it was hard to tell whether it was real or fake.
The passage of time where Hsiang Yang's physical body was located only lasted for a split second. However, compared to his spiritual senses, the time he could have in the illusion realm was almost limitless.
What was the difference between Hsiang Yang's current cultivation?
It wasn't the accumulation of energy, nor was it the cultivation technique or inheritance. What he lacked was time.
All along, Hsiang Yang had been busy with all kinds of things. Although he had a supreme inheritance, * Hong Long...... *
Now, the first test had given him the best time to organize everything in his mind.
"Profound Maiden Palace, what a good man!"
Hsiang Yang sighed. He felt that Palace Lord and Xuan Su from the Profound Maiden Palace were really good people in the first test. They were simply bringing him benefits.
"If Xuan Su and Xuan Xin know that the first round of the test is very useful to me, I wonder what they will think."
Hsiang Yang thought of Xuan Su and Xuan Xin. If they knew that the first round of the test was to create the conditions for their cultivation, their expressions would definitely be very interesting. He smiled and began to immerse himself in his own world. He began to organize his cultivation.
...
High up in the sky, thousands of disciples of the Profound Maiden Palace were sitting cross-legged in the white clouds. They were all smiling as they looked at the floating balls in front of them. There was a human figure appearing in each ball. Those people were either sitting quietly or deep in thought. Or perhaps... They were either flying into a rage or practicing various spells.
Everyone in these small balls were obviously those who were undergoing the test. The Profound Maiden Palace's means were very clever, and they could monitor the situation of everyone who was participating in the test at any time.
"How many years has it been in the Heavenly Yuan Illusion?"
At this moment, Xuan Xin, who was sitting cross-legged in the center, opened her eyes and asked softly.
"Elder, according to our calculations, they should have experienced 125 years."
As soon as Xuan Xin's voice faded, a disciple of the Profound Maiden Palace calculated for a while and said respectfully.
"How many levels of people have been eliminated?" Xuan Xin nodded slightly and continued to ask.
"Those who have passed the eighth level have been eliminated. All the losers have been teleported away." The disciple replied respectfully.
"Alright, then let's continue to wait. Those who have persisted for more than five hundred years will pass and enter the next round."
Xuan Xin said lightly and closed her eyes again. She did not pay attention to these circumstances. To her, among these candidates,... Only Hsiang Yang could arouse her interest. However... Hsiang Yang had hidden himself so that she couldn't find out who he was, so she naturally had no interest in looking at the others.
"Yes."
The disciple replied respectfully. After that, he returned to the group of Profound Maiden Palace disciples and continued their discussion and investigation.
During this process, a large number of people who participated in the test were eliminated every second because they failed the test. In front of them, bubbles like balls kept breaking. After each ball broke, the people inside were transported out of the range of the test.
"Ahhhhh... Who am I, where is this, and who are you? Bastard, I'll kill you."
" Rumble... "
At the same time, on a tall mountain near the Profound Maiden Palace... Countless people who failed the test were sent here, causing great chaos in this place. Although they were sent out, all of them were shouting and yelling as if they had gone crazy. Some of them even directly attacked the people around them.
"Impudent!"
Fortunately, the Profound Maiden Palace had arranged a group of elders and disciples to guard this place. When some of them were about to go crazy, they were immediately suppressed by the experts of the Profound Maiden Palace.
After that, the disciples of the Profound Maiden Palace casted their spells, and a powerful force instantly erupted. As the halo spread out, a clear flow of energy was circulating. It woke all the crazy people up as if they had just woken up from a dream, waking them up from the illusion.
"Although you have not passed the test, I believe that during this period of time... You have already gained some understanding. When you return, you will go into seclusion and cultivate. If you can obtain something, it won't be a waste for all of you to come to Profound Maiden Palace. "
An elder of the Profound Maiden Palace said faintly, then waved his hand to let everyone leave.
" Oh my god... He's still in secluded cultivation..."
"I'm going crazy, how is this possible?
These people who were eliminated had just been tortured by loneliness for several decades or even two hundred years in the illusion. At this moment... When they heard that they were going to go into seclusion again, all of them widened their eyes and revealed a look of fear.
During the period of time they had gone through the test of the Profound Maiden Palace, the impression they had left on them was too terrifying. If they were to enter secluded cultivation at this time, it would be even more unbearable than killing them.
To them, there would be a lot of time in the future where they would be afraid of entering secluded cultivation, and their expressions would change when they talked about it.
As the saying goes, fortune is not misfortune. Fortune and misfortune depended on the individual. They had failed in the first round of the trial of the Profound Maiden Palace. However, if they could understand the true meaning of cultivation, and also if they didn't waste more than a hundred years of time in the illusion realm... It would bring them endless benefits, but those who didn't understand... They would only be afraid to enter secluded cultivation in the future, which would greatly affect them.
The people of Profound Maiden Palace naturally knew about these things. However... They wouldn't care too much about it. The Profound Maiden Palace had done their best to wake these crazy people up. They couldn't possibly take responsibility for the rest of their lives. They were responsible for the lives of these millions of people who had participated in the test.
Hsiang Yang wasn't clear about what was happening in the outside world. Currently, he was sorting out everything that had happened since he was young and cultivating in this illusory realm.
Compared to the lifespan of those powerful cultivators, which could easily extend for tens of thousands of years, Hsiang Yang's life had only just begun. It had only been 28 years since he was born. But... His cultivation base had surpassed the countless cultivator that he had cultivated for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
However, Hsiang Yang had always known that his cultivation speed was too fast. Although every step was steady and steady, and there were no tricks involved, however, his true realm had yet to improve. He had always wanted to find an opportunity to comprehend it quietly. However, his time was too little. At most, when he was on the Origin Star... He had entered the Immortal Mansion of Hidden Sect to gain enlightenment for a period of time, but that was just too little time. To him, it was just a drop in the bucket.
This time, the first round of the test of Profound Maiden Palace had cost so much to send all the participants into the illusion realm. This might be a form of torture to the others, but to Hsiang Yang, it was no different from a vital cultivation.
Therefore, Hsiang Yang had forgotten about the passing of time and the fact that this was the test of Profound Maiden Palace. He had forgotten that this was an illusion realm, and that he had fallen into a state of enlightenment.
His inheritance was passed down to him by his master. Furthermore, as his cultivation base advanced, the inheritance that his master had given him was gradually unraveling. More and more cultivation methods appeared in his mind, as well as most of the memories of the Demon Lord's life. It contained the most precious insights and experiences in the world, as well as various formations, equipment forging, pill forging, and magical techniques.
Hsiang Yang started to train in different categories, and his entire being was immersed in the comprehension of these things.1
Cultivation had no time. One day in the cave had passed, and a thousand years had passed in the world.
When Hsiang Yang was truly immersed in his cultivation, he didn't know how much time had passed in the outside world, but he was still cultivating bitterly.
Along with the passage of time in the illusion realm, the participants of the Profound Maiden Palace's test were eliminated in batches. Finally, when the five hundred year period was over, the first round of the test had finally come to an end.
