Chapter 532 278: Reversing the Past, Facing the Future

Beneath the starry sky.

Gu Tiandu and the others weren't too surprised by Wang Xiao's words.

They had lived in the Starry Sky Sea under Wuji Mountain's jurisdiction for over eight hundred years.

They had, of course, heard a little about the Myriad Realms Grand Trial.

This Myriad Realms Grand Trial was a grand trial for beings above Tier Ten Life but below Tier Twelve Life.

It contained a vast amount of incredibly precious resources.

Most importantly, one could find Time Flowers within it. With these flowers, one could make direct contact with the River of Time.

This was a necessary step for a Tier Eleven Life to become a Tier Twelve Life!

They knew Wang Xiao had already reached Tier Eleven Life.

So, it was certain that he would participate in this Myriad Realms Grand Trial!

Otherwise…

Who knew how long they would have to wait for the next Myriad Realms Grand Trial.

However, the Myriad Realms Grand Trial involved numerous Starry Sky Seas, and it was likely that a good number of Tier Eleven Life forms would enter.

Therefore, Gu Tiandu and the others couldn't help but worry.

Unfortunately, they were all currently Tier Nine Life. Even if they wanted to help, they were powerless to do so.

"Wang Xiao, you can go without any worries. We'll take good care of Earth."

"That's right. Ji Wuchang managed to get some resources this time. By the time you come back from the Trial Land, perhaps he'll have broken through to Tier Ten Life as well."

"Haha, by then, with you and Ji Wuchang, Earth will have truly established a firm foothold in the starry sky controlled by Wuji Mountain!"

In the Starry Sky Sea under Wuji Mountain's jurisdiction, a Tier Nine Life hardly counted for anything.

Only by breaking through to Tier Ten and mastering Creation Divine Power could one truly be counted among the powerful.

Wang Xiao glanced at Ji Wuchang.

"Your Talent is extraordinary, on par with my own. Breaking through to Tier Ten is just a matter of time for you. Just remember not to rush it!"

He couldn't offer much more help for Ji Wuchang's future breakthroughs.

It was all up to Ji Wuchang now.

Ji Wuchang nodded slightly.

"I owe my success in obtaining the breakthrough resources to all of you. I will certainly not disappoint everyone's hopes!"

He had risked his life coming here and had nearly been killed.

It was thanks to Gu Tiandu bringing reinforcements that he survived; otherwise, he truly would have perished.

Therefore, he would naturally be extra cautious about his breakthrough.

Wang Xiao nodded, pleased to see that Ji Wuchang's mindset hadn't been affected.

"It's good that you have that conviction. In the later Realms of Cultivation, Talent is no longer the most important factor!"

"What's important is one's own conviction and determination!"

In truth, any being who could cultivate to Tier Nine—excluding Gu Tiandu and the others, who had relied on a shortcut to break through—wouldn't have poor Talent to begin with.

What mattered most were one's own character and fortuitous opportunities.

Only by finding the resources to break through and enduring the solitude could one's True Spirit grow strong.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to bear the power of future breakthroughs!

With nothing more to say, Wang Xiao's form flashed, and he flew toward the Sea of Light ahead, which emanated a peculiar aura.

Within the Sea of Light, countless starry skies twinkled, resembling a Microcosm.

This was the Trial Land.

Legend had it that the entrance to the Trial Land was a Boundary Land where multiple Rivers of Time, each spanning tens of billions of starry skies, intersected.

The energy that activated this entrance was the residual energy from the Silent Extinction of the previous Cosmos.

Therefore, the phenomenon manifesting within this Sea of Light could indeed be considered a Microcosm.

However, this particular Cosmos had perished an unknown number of years ago.

It was within this boundless Microcosm that the Time Flowers, left behind during the Cosmos's Silent Extinction, could be found.

These Time Flowers grew upon the now-vanished Rivers of Time.

BUZZ!

Energy surged within Wang Xiao, and his River of Destiny, roiling like a great tide, slammed into the Sea of Light.

In an instant, the Sea of Light rippled, sending waves spreading out in all directions.

At this moment, Wang Xiao felt an inexplicable, special connection form between himself and the Microcosm.

However, this connection also carried a powerful repulsive force.

This repulsive force was precisely what prevented Wang Xiao from entering the Microcosm.

'To enter the Trial Land, one must be above Tier Ten Life and also hold an entry Token for the Myriad Realms Grand Trial.'

Wang Xiao understood.

He knew that entry into this Microcosm required one to be at least a Tier Ten Life.

Without Creation Divine Power, it was impossible to break the Microcosm's Barrier.

Furthermore, those who had transcended the River of Time and reached Tier Twelve Life would also be rejected by the Trial Land, as their aura would conflict with that of the vanished River of Time within the Microcosm.

In addition, any being between Tier Ten Life and Tier Twelve Life who wished to enter the Trial Land still needed to obtain an entry Token for the Myriad Realms Grand Trial.

With this Token, they could assimilate their own aura with that of the Microcosm.

That way, they wouldn't be rejected!

The next moment, a black Token appeared in Wang Xiao's hand.

It pulsed with a peculiar energy.

This was the very entry Token for the Myriad Realms Grand Trial that Wang Xiao had obtained from the Eternal Night Monarch all those years ago.

'This Token must be a remnant from the last Cosmos's Silent Extinction. That's why it can assimilate my aura!'

Without another thought, Wang Xiao activated the Myriad Realms Grand Trial entry Token.

In an instant, the Token glowed with a faint black light and merged directly into Wang Xiao's River of Destiny.

The instant the Token merged with his River of Destiny, Wang Xiao felt the repulsive force vanish without a trace.
