Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven-Chapter 1557 - 1548: Collapse of a Thousand Statues
Time passed by as Mo Wangchen sat cross-legged in front of the divine statue.
Some of the people who had ascended the mountain with him had already departed.
Some stayed, because if Mo Wangchen failed, it would be an opportunity for them.
Until the second Purple Crystal lit up, indicating that two days had passed.
During this time, Mo Wangchen was immersed in the state of Sword Enlightenment.
His eyes were tightly shut, never opening, only nodding occasionally or shaking his head, leaving those waiting at the scene puzzled.
Not sitting on the cushion, they naturally couldn’t feel the invisible Law evolving around Mo Wangchen’s body.
"Buzz..."
The third Purple Crystal lit up. On the third day, the space around Mo Wangchen’s body suddenly vibrated intensely, his eyes opened, as if Sword Light burst forth, an immense Sword Force instantly enveloped the entire scene, causing those waiting to be startled in their hearts.
At this moment, Mo Wangchen understood, comprehending the sword technique transmitted by the divine statue!
"Buzz..."
The divine statue trembled again, suddenly radiating an unmatched Holy Light, which enveloped Mo Wangchen instantaneously.
Mo Wangchen felt dazzled, and when his sight returned, he found himself already in the Second Realm!
"Boom boom boom!"
At the same time, his gaze descended, instantly seeing the divine statue where he had been sitting collapse, turning into a heap of rubble.
"Wow!"
Outside, in Taifeng City, people were in an uproar, everyone looked up towards the sky, naturally witnessing the scene just now.
"Is that Mo Wangchen? He actually ascended to the Second Realm first?"
"Didn’t someone say that it takes seven days sitting in front of the divine statue to gain recognition?"
"What exactly is happening?"
The crowd was shocked, with many confused expressions, but regardless, Mo Wangchen became the first to ascend to the Second Realm, surprising everyone by surpassing All Saints.
"I must have comprehended the divine statue’s Transmit skill in advance, hence received recognition earlier."
In the Second Realm, Mo Wangchen was alone, he murmured to himself, thinking of this possibility, while frowning slightly, "If one doesn’t comprehend within seven days, what would the outcome be?"
Would one still pass the challenge, or be directly teleported out?
Mo Wangchen didn’t know, and didn’t have time to think more, having ascended to the Second Realm before anyone else was an advantage.
He withdrew his gaze from the First Realm and began to survey the Second Realm.
The pressure in this space was much stronger than in the First Realm, though the overall layout hadn’t changed much, the only difference was that here, there were only five hundred divine statues!
He didn’t have time to ponder more, immediately heading towards the nearest Absolute Peak.
Unlike the First Realm, in the Second Realm, fierce beasts roamed the mountains and forests, Mo Wangchen advanced cautiously, avoiding detection by those beasts.
Uncertain how much time passed, he finally arrived at the foot of the Absolute Peak, the ancient stairs towered tens of thousands of feet, and Mo Wangchen began to ascend.
The oppressive feeling from the ancient stairs was significantly stronger than previously.
But this had little effect on Mo Wangchen, after two quarters of an hour, he finally reached the peak.
Standing in front of the divine statue, Mo Wangchen paused in silence, then directly sat cross-legged on the cushion.
Similar to before, around Mo Wangchen’s body, the Law started to evolve, the statue transmitted its skill, and Mo Wangchen calmed down to delve into Netherworld Enlightenment.
"Do you think he will continue like this and become the first to reach the Ninth Realm?"
In Taifeng City, everyone was watching, Mo Wangchen had taken the lead, and was already seeking the divine statue’s recognition in the Second Realm at an unprecedented speed.
"It depends on whether he can successfully gain the divine statue’s recognition, if nothing unexpected happens... hmm?"
An elder spoke, but paused midway, frowning, "What is he doing?"
Not only the elder, but everyone in Taifeng City noticed Mo Wangchen’s actions in the Second Realm.
After sitting on the cushion for more than an hour, Mo Wangchen stood up, shook his head, and went straight down the mountain without looking back.
"The divine statue’s Transmit skill is an Ancient Great Technique, what I comprehended in the First Realm, the sword technique’s power is remarkable, but the skill transmitted by that statue wasn’t suitable for me."
This was why Mo Wangchen left, wanting not only recognition but also to gain more harvests from this challenge.
Soon, he arrived in front of another divine statue, briefly sat, then shook his head again, "A sword technique is useless to me."
Once again, he left, heading towards another divine statue.
"What exactly is he doing?"
In Taifeng City, everyone was completely bewildered, unable to understand why Mo Wangchen repeatedly left the cushion under the statues. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
"Buzz..."
At the same time, in the First Realm, a Holy Light descended, enveloping someone, and then the divine statue collapsed, indicating a second person had successfully gained the divine statue’s recognition and entered the Second Realm.
"It’s the Purple Extreme Saint!"
Someone exclaimed, the Purple Extreme Saint had succeeded, becoming the second to step into the Second Realm.
"Brother Mo..."
Inside the Second Realm, the Purple Extreme Saint emerged, his first glance was towards Mo Wangchen’s location, despite the countless mountains in between, he seemed to see that white-clothed figure moving between the peaks.
After a glance, he withdrew his gaze, no longer paying attention, and turned towards a certain Absolute Peak.
Time passed, Mo Wangchen seemed to have completely immersed himself in this state, constantly climbing mountains, yet never finding a suitable place for himself.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
During this period, besides the Purple Extreme Saint, many others had ascended to the Second Realm.
This included Saintess Yunxi, Mu Ling, Zhen Ming, and the Saints from the Four Domains, summing up to nearly a hundred people.
The Second Realm was vast, with its five hundred Absolute Peaks, each at least hundreds of miles apart, so even with nearly a hundred people wandering, compared to the entire space, it was still too few, almost not encountering each other.
Moreover, people in Taifeng City also discovered that apart from Mo Wangchen, those like the Purple Extreme Saint who entered the Second Realm later, were almost like him, sitting under a divine statue for a while, then shaking their heads and leaving.
"Boom boom boom..."
Until the seventh day since Mo Wangchen left the First Realm, from beneath the thousands of divine statues, those who had sat for seven days but still failed to comprehend the divine statue’s skill were also enveloped by Holy Light and transported to the Second Realm.
Thereafter, all thousand divine statues collapsed, the mountains and ancient trees in the entire First Realm world turned into illusions, and those still within were pushed back to Taifeng City by an invisible force.
PS: Three updates.
