Chapter 612: First In The Divine Court, A Full Ten Years (1)

Within the dimly lit battle space of level one hundred.

"Defeat me? It seems you're quite confident," the elderly man in white robes remarked. He gave off an air of extraordinary dignity, appearing utterly certain that Wu Yuan was no match for him. "Your name is Ming Jian? Regardless of success or failure, your name is destined to be recorded in the history of the immortal world.

If you succeed, you'll qualify to have your name inscribed on the Luminary Ranking at the divine court headquarters. However, I won't hold back. Defeating me won't be easy," the white-robed elderly man smiled.

Wu Yuan simply smiled in return.

The Luminary Ranking at the divine court headquarters?

"Then let's begin," Wu Yuan grinned, his mind instantly focusing.

A vast array of first-grade spirit flying swords materialized around him, 729 in total. This was the first time Wu Yuan, in his guise as Ming Jian, had unleashed the Thousand Swords Array since challenging the one-star tower.

Even when conquering level ninety-nine, Wu Yuan had only employed the Hundred Swords Array.

The Seven Star Luminaries Tower challenge took place in the voidrealm, where first-degree immortal roots, nine lifebound flying swords, and other such advantages were rendered unusable.

But what was Wu Yuan's qi refiner self's greatest asset? His Apotheosis Yuan Soul! This granted him a natural advantage in artifact manipulation.

Wu Yuan's current body was only at the first-stage Amethyst Cradle phase, but even while he limited the soul power he exhibited to the ordinary Yuan Soul level, it was already terrifyingly powerful.

If Wu Yuan wished, his qi refiner self could effortlessly assemble multiple Thousand Swords Arrays within this one-star tower with a single thought.

"Haha, excellent!" the white-robed elderly man laughed, likewise waving his hand. A sea of sword lights appeared, as flying sword after flying sword gathered.

In an instant, the battle erupted.

Rumble~ Like a blow from a massive hammer, an overwhelming wave of soul force suddenly swept towards Wu Yuan.

Yet it was like a gentle breeze trying to topple a great tree; Wu Yuan's expression didn't change in the slightest. Clearly, this sort of attack couldn't make him budge at all.

A soul attack? Wu Yuan shook his head slightly, then his gaze sharpened!

The Celestial Body, True Domain, and Longevity True Intents were harnessed simultaneously, merging into one. An immense domain centered on Wu Yuan descended!

The domain's power instantly swelled to a terrifying degree, rivaling the seventh-level Dao Field stage.

Rumble~ Dao fluctuations stirred. The 729 flying swords interwove, forming a terrifying divine sword. The moment the divine sword took shape, its fearsome sword intent swept across millions of li. Its momentum was unstoppable, its presence vast and weighty, as if the sword intent permeated all of existence... the nascent form of the divine sword of Life!

The unity of the three True Intents had given birth to the nascent form of the Life Dao. Wu Yuan had already stepped across the threshold of the Law of Life, but even without deliberately employing the Life Dao, this divine sword contained a hint of Life Dao resonance.

The instant the divine sword of Life formed, Wu Yuan pointed from afar: "Kill!"

Wu Yuan stood silently in the space.

Supreme Genius? Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi had once mentioned the path of the Supreme Genius to Wu Yuan.

Looking across the vast river of space and time, comprehending a Greater Law within a million years would qualify one as a Supreme Genius. Upon passing the Ninth Immortal Tribulation, they would directly become Sovereigns.

To this day, no one in the entire Greenridge Macrocosm had accomplished this feat. The Sovereigns of the seven top-tier factions had, for the most part, first become Astral Monarchs before gradually cultivating to become Sovereigns.

Directly becoming a Sovereign? It was too inconceivable, too heaven-defying.

The highest level of the Eldritch Deity Tower, level forty, requires one to fully comprehend an Intermediate Law to conquer, serving as the benchmark for top-tier geniuses in the eldritch world. Wu Yuan reflected. While in the Eternal Sun Immortal World, the Seven Star Luminaries Tower serves as the benchmark for Supreme Geniuses.

However, compared to the Cang Feng Eldritch World, the Seven Star Luminaries Tower of the Eternal Sun Immortal World, originating from the Taiyuan Divine Court, had a more refined classification, divided into seven towers based on age.

In fact, according to the Taiyuan Divine Court's description, if one followed the prescribed cultivation path and successfully conquered all hundred floors from the one-star tower to the seven-star tower in sequence, they would be considered to reach the Supreme Genius benchmark of each respective age group.

One step behind, always behind. One step ahead, always ahead. Late bloomers may exist, but the quicker one progresses, the higher the probability of ultimately standing at the pinnacle. Wu Yuan mused calmly to himself. Level one hundred of the one-star tower is the benchmark for Supreme Geniuses under a hundred years old.

No one in the Eternal Sun Immortal World had ever successfully reached this benchmark, until today.

It makes sense. Geniuses of Senior Brother Jiang Huan's caliber are already the pinnacle of the macrocosm's history. At my age, he probably only conquered around level eighty. In the entire history of the Eternal Sun Immortal World, those who reached level ninety could likely be counted on two hands. Wu Yuan reflected, his mind perfectly serene.

He had come here today to test the results of his years of cultivation.

Wu Yuan clearly understood that he was able to reach this point due to numerous factors. There were his two true selves created through his own efforts, the aid of the black pagoda, the assistance of two Immortal Sovereigns, and the unfathomable opportunities from the Immutable Land.

Whether it was comprehending a Greater Law within a million years, or conquering all one hundred levels of any star tower in the Seven Star Luminaries Tower, it could be said such monstrous prodigies mostly encountered extraordinary opportunities and underwent numerous experiences.

Relying solely on natural talent? It would be difficult to achieve such feats.

For now, conquering level one hundred of the one-star tower can only be considered taking the first step on the Supreme Genius path. Wu Yuan's heart surged with ambition.

Comprehending a Greater Law was the ultimate goal, and now, he could only say he had completed the first stage requirement of this objective. Many difficult challenges still lay ahead.

I'll conquer them one by one. For now, I’ve passed level one hundred of the one-star tower, and in the future, I'll conquer level one hundred of the two-star tower, the three-star tower...

Wu Yuan vanished from the space.

Besides the base six points granted for clearing levels fifty through one hundred, he received an additional point for conquering level eighty, ten additional points for level ninety, and a hundred additional points for level one hundred. Thus, this journey earned Wu Yuan a total of 117 Dao Temple points.

First, I'll go to the Dao Temple and receive one inheritance each for the Intermediate Laws of True Domain and Qiankun.

Wu Yuan was now flush with resources and didn't mind spending these Dao Temple points. This was the treatment befitting a Supreme Genius.

Other immortal cultivators would never receive such a generous bestowal of Dao Temple points even if they became disciples of an Immortal Sovereign.
