Chapter 1273 - 1112: Devil Sound Trial
He felt a wave of emotion inside, but when he thought about the substantial gains he had made this time, the sense of disappointment faded."This time, my unexpected harvest is truly immense, yet I can't quite understand why that woman appeared before me. Could it be that the woman, the giant elephant, and the Flying Dragon were all illusions? If they truly were illusions, then who is casting such illusions upon me?"
He pondered over the scenes he had witnessed for quite a while but still found no answers.
He could only speculate that the giant elephant and Flying Dragon might be the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul, but the woman remained a mystery.
"Zhao Wuji didn't tell me that, after my cultivation breakthrough to a certain realm, I would experience illusions!"
Regarding those bizarre illusions, he could only let them linger in his mind.
Two days later, Duan Gujin was summoned by Gao Qixiu.
Upon meeting Duan Gujin, Gao Qixiu requested him to showcase his full combat power.
Witnessing Duan Gujin's current cultivation at the Ninth-level Martial Saint as well as his breakthrough in achieving the Golden Martial Meridian, Gao Qixiu was utterly astounded.
His Martial Meridian was now the same as Duan Gujin's, a Golden Martial Meridian.
In the Divine World, if a martial artist opens the Golden Martial Meridian, it signifies that they no longer need to worry about how to open the Dark Gold Martial Meridian in the next step.
Because, in the Divine World, there's a common understanding that martial artists can at most open the Golden Martial Meridian here, but to open the Dark Gold Martial Meridian, one must venture into the Immortal Domain.
The reason behind this saying in the Divine World is reportedly because the upper echelon has made numerous attempts in the past, ultimately reaching a conclusion.
That conclusion is that only the rule power of the Immortal Domain can unlock the final Martial Meridian, granting a martial artist the Dark Gold Martial Meridian.
Although typically, martial artists reaching the Supreme God realm manage to open the Golden Martial Meridian, the process is incredibly challenging.
Gao Qixiu had only succeeded in opening the Golden Martial Meridian at the peak of the Demigod Realm, having tried many methods before but failed each time.
Yet now, discovering that Duan Gujin has opened the Golden Martial Meridian at the Ninth-level Martial Saint realm shook him intensively.
Calculating with his fingers, Gao Qixiu felt that there seemed to be very few martial artists in the entire Divine World who could open the Golden Martial Meridian at the Martial Saint realm.
Thus, he curiously asked, "Duan Gujin, how did you manage to open the Golden Martial Meridian?"
"My master once gave me a very rare elixir pill; hence, I managed to open the Golden Martial Meridian. My master has a significant background in the Immortal Domain!"
Duan Gujin's eyes sparkled. He knew that Gao Qixiu might doubt how he managed to open the Golden Martial Meridian at the Martial Saint realm. Therefore, he brought up the nonexistent Immortal Domain master again.
"How could I forget! That Immortal Domain Immortal behind Duan Gujin certainly isn't an ordinary Domain Immortal. Typical Immortal Domain Immortals wouldn't be so generous!"
Gao Qixiu breathed out a sigh of relief, immediately realizing that the master behind Duan Gujin must be extraordinary.
"Congratulations, Duan Gujin! You should rest well for a period. In five days, I will assign you some difficult tasks. If you wish to break through to the Breakthrough Realm, you need to train yourself fiercely! It's only through rigorous training that you can reach the Breakthrough Realm. Here's a reward of three hundred Ten-thousand Yuan Pills from the Eternal Divine Court for you to accept!"
Gao Qixiu said earnestly.
"Thank you, Sect Master!"
Duan Gujin quickly expressed gratitude.
"Do your best!"
Gao Qixiu said.
"Okay!"
After bidding farewell to Gao Qixiu, Duan Gujin returned to his room.
Inside his room, he immediately took a Ten-thousand Yuan Pill, started cultivation, and attended to his body.
He had just broken through to the Ninth-layer Martial Saint realm, and his body was extremely weak.
To break through to the Breakthrough Realm, he needed to absorb and refine more Ten-thousand Yuan Pills.
"Fortunately, I've come to the Eternal Divine Court this time!"
Recalling his encounters upon entering the Eternal Divine Court, he felt his previous decision was incredibly wise.
If he had stayed at the Ascension Academy, he might have only received around a hundred Ten-thousand Yuan Pills.
Unlike now, where he possessed several hundred Ten-thousand Yuan Pills.
With these hundreds of Ten-thousand Yuan Pills, he could settle into the Ninth-level Martial Saint realm for a good period.
Previously at the Ascension Academy, he was worried about having an insufficient or nonexistent supply of elixir pills for cultivation.
Now, he found he was no longer lacking in elixir pills required for cultivation at the Martial Saint realm.
Time ticked away, and five days later, Gao Qixiu had Elder Wang take him to a very secret training location within the Eternal Divine Court for cultivation.
"Duan Gujin, your cultivation has reached the Martial Saint realm, but I'm afraid your Divine Power still remains quite weak. This place is ideal for cultivating Divine Power. You need to unleash all your Divine Power and break through that valley ahead! The valley ahead is called the Demon Sound Ancient, where formidable Devil Sounds will be unleashed, powerful enough to influence your Divine Soul! If you want to break through, you need to protect your Divine Soul! The Demon Sound Ancient has a total of ninety-nine layers. My requirement is for you to break through twenty layers successfully. If you do, it signifies your Divine Power is qualified. Pushing further indicates your Divine Power is very strong. If you reach fifty layers, it means your Divine Power has reached the level capable of breaking through to the Demigod Realm! Get prepared, and once ready, go ahead and test!"
Elder Wang explained the valley ahead to him.
Duan Gujin released his Divine Sense and saw that the valley ahead had many stone steps, each about half a person high.
To him, climbing those steps was a trifling task.
He knew that the real threat from the so-called Demon Sound Valley wasn't the stone steps but the Devil Sounds that would be unleashed, affecting the martial artist's Divine Soul.
He promptly activated his cultivation technique to protect his body.
After a while, he informed Elder Wang he was ready.
"Duan Gujin, the Demon Sound Valley ahead poses certain risks. If your Divine Soul truly can't withstand the Devil Sounds, you must decisively give up and absolutely not stay inside for extended periods. Understand? Inside, you absolutely must not be reckless!"
Elder Wang earnestly warned.
"Elder, rest assured, I'll be cautious!"
Duan Gujin said gravely.
"Alright, go ahead! Don't rush, just walk slowly."
Elder Wang instructed Duan Gujin to advance.
"Okay!"
Duan Gujin followed Elder Wang's instructions, moving step by step towards the Demon Sound Valley.
Soon, he arrived at the first stone step.
He activated his Primordial Power, initially intending to use a Flying Technique, but the next moment, his brow furrowed tightly.
"Damn! It turns out there's a Forbidden Space Array here!"
