"First was condensing the will of the Twelve Sages."
Aladdin thought for a mont, then broke the silence first and said, "Once the will is condensed, you undergo the trial of the Twelve Sages, and finally receive the blessing to advance as one of the Twelve Sages."
[Hint: The player has currently triggered the mission-Twelve Sages Trial.]
Mission na: Twelve Sages Trial.
Mission description: You have learned from the Great Sage about the advancent conditions of the Twelve Sages. Please confirm that you et the prerequisites, participate in, and pass the trial to complete the advancent.
Mission requirents: Pass the Twelve Sages Trial.
Mission reward: The current Great Sage bloodline will be upgraded to the Twelve Sages bloodline.
"When does the trial start?" Fang Heng looked at Aladdin and the other two, a few eager traces appearing in his eyes.
The three Great Sages glanced at each other and fell silent once again.
Seeing their troubled expressions, Fang Heng asked, "What's wrong? Do you think I am not qualified?"
Aladdin shook his head and said, "Great Sage Fang Heng, you jest. We do not an that at all."
Dean, standing nearby, said, "Fang Heng, the prerequisite for the trial requires condensing the will of the Twelve Sages. I'm afraid it cannot be achieved in a short ti."
Fang Heng looked at Dean, and a faint imprint ford from the burning holy light shining between his eyebrows.
The three Great Sages inwardly felt astonished.
Goodness!
It really was the will of the Twelve Sages!
And it had already been condensed to a very high level.
This guy was definitely well prepared!
Fang Heng withdrew the imprint and asked, "So?"
The three Great Sages exchanged glances again.
Aladdin pondered and said, "Great Sage Fang Heng, your Twelve Sages imprint has been condensed to a very high standard. We are impressed, but opening the advancent trial of the Twelve Sages is probably still not feasible in the short term."
"Still not ready?" Fang Heng said with so dissatisfaction, "Aladdin, are you deliberately making things difficult for ?"
"Absolutely not."
Aladdin shook his head and said, "Actually, you know sothing about this matter."
Fang Heng asked, "What do you an?"
"Actually, the trial requires entering a teleportation passage through a ritual to conduct it in a special trial environnt. Unfortunately, the ritual site was destroyed during the Ouroboros crisis in the Holy Realm. As you have seen, the Holy Realm has not yet been rebuilt."
Fang Heng opened his mouth slightly.
Really?
He recalled that during the chaos caused by Ouroboros, many buildings in the Holy Realm were destroyed, and many items were taken away from the Holy Realm.
Could it be that the area corresponding to the Twelve Sages ritual was among them?
Aladdin was unsure whether the theft and destruction in the Holy Realm were related to Fang Heng, but most temple areas in the Holy Realm were systematically destroyed and nearly looted clean.
The Twelve Sages ritual site was no exception.
"We have been continuously repairing the Holy Realm recently, but we did not expect anyone to reach the point of advancing to the Twelve Sages trial. So the trial site has not been scheduled for repair until now."
Lucius, responsible for part of the temple reconstruction, nodded and explained, continuing, "We will arrange to rebuild the ritual temple as soon as possible."
Fang Heng asked, "How long will it take?"
"To be honest, besides the destruction of the ritual temple building, we also found that many precious ritual items were lost inside the temple. According to my estimate, if everything goes smoothly, it may take about ten years."
Ten years?
That long?
Fang Heng looked back at Lucius, wondering how the old man could say "ten years" so seriously.
In ten years, he could max out all other disciplines.
Lucius and the other two Great Sages did not know what Fang Heng was thinking. To them, ten years was just a blink of an eye.
Fang Heng asked, "Is there any other way?"
"As far as I know, no. Historically, there has only been this one path to advance to the Twelve Sages," Lucius said, then looked at Fang Heng and added, "The God King is currently the only one who has passed the Twelve Sages assessnt. Perhaps he knows other thods."
Fang Heng felt a bit helpless.
Fine.
He would temporarily return to the Endless Domain. By then, the God King would probably have ended his seclusion. He would talk with the God King and see if other ways to advance to the Twelve Sages could be found.
Just as Fang Heng was about to take his leave, a god attendant stepped forward and reported, "Great Sages, sorry to interrupt. There are visitors at the temple. They claim to be under the jurisdiction of the Realm Venerable and have co to visit the God King."
Aladdin and the other two's expressions changed slightly upon hearing this. They exchanged a glance and nodded, saying, "Let's go, take us to them."
"They are just outside."
Lucius took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Please let them in."
Fang Heng saw the three with serious expressions and curiously asked, "Realm Venerable? Who is that?"
Aladdin asked, "Fang Heng, do you know the truth of the world we are in?"
"Of course," Fang Heng thought, I know. But do you really know?
"We exist only as part of the world," Aladdin continued, "The Realm Venerable cos from another part called the dinsional world. You can think of them as rulers of the dinsional world."
"You an the world that can be teleported to using sealing arts?"
"Exactly."
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes slightly.
So it was the dinsional world!
Using sealing arts, a special teleportation passage could be opened to discard sealed items into that world.
He recalled that when he first learned the sealing arts, he had thrown part of the Hila tissue into the dinsional world.
Fang Heng asked, "Has the Holy Realm always had contact with the dinsional world?"
"Not really."
Aladdin smiled bitterly, thinking the dinsional world probably did not consider the Holy Realm important.
"The dinsional world is regarded as the origin of all worlds."
Aladdin continued, "The dinsional explosion caused the world to split into many Outer Worlds, while the dinsional world itself still exists. It is also called the dark side of the world or the Inner World. The intelligent races surviving in the dinsional world are very powerful."
Fang Heng listened with growing curiosity.
So the dinsional world also belonged to the ga world?
"They probably ca this ti because of the Martial Apex Tournant."
"Hm?"
"The Martial Apex Tournant, held roughly every three hundred years by the Dinsional Emperor, invites strong contenders from various world boundaries through eight Realm Venerables under his command. They compete to determine one winner."
Fang Heng asked, "Is the Dinsional Emperor strong?"
"Very strong. The Dinsional Emperor has never personally fought, but everyone believes his strength is unfathomable."
"So what is the reward for winning?"
"Unknown," Lucius continued. "But every God King has participated in the Martial Apex Tournant as tradition. There must be so benefit, but since the God King was injured, he has been in seclusion recovering and hasn't participated."
