Wang Xiao looked up at the heavens, his eyes glimring faintly.
He watched as Ji Wuchang’s Spirit constantly surged and then waned.
A full day passed.
In the end, Ji Wuchang failed.
He couldn’t help but look toward Wang Xiao. A magnetic voice drifted over:
"I didn’t expect anyone else could pass through the Wall of All Saints. May I ask your na?"
"Wang Xiao."
"You’re *that* Wang Xiao? The one who created the Celestial Human Temple?!"
"You know of ?"
"I do. I’ve even practiced your Celestial Human Temple. It’s truly remarkable. Your Evolution Technique has forged a new path for all of humanity."
Wang Xiao remained noncommittal.
Ji Wuchang continued, "It seems the person who created a Spiritual Cultivation Technique like the Celestial Human Temple is bound to have extraordinary Talent. But why aren’t you playing? Just watching won’t be enough to defeat Elder Gu. His strategies are more advanced than the most cutting-edge AI. I simply can’t out-calculate him."
"That was probably my ten-thousandth ga, and it was still no use!"
Hearing this, Wang Xiao gave a dry cough. "If you’ve played for so long and still can’t win, soone like who has never even played Go stands no chance at all."
"Then there’s nothing to be done. If just anyone could defeat Elder Gu, this wouldn’t be the final trial," Ji Wuchang said, shaking his head.
Wang Xiao smiled. "Speaking of which, did you receive the reward for the previous trial?"
Ji Wuchang furrowed his brow. "No. This is the final test. Once you pass, you’ll receive the ultimate reward. I assu the reward from the previous trial will be handed out at the sa ti."
Wang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. "So that’s how it is. I understand now!"
"Understand what?" Ji Wuchang asked, confused.
Wang Xiao said, "The way to solve this ga, of course."
Ji Wuchang was stunned. "Impossible. You just arrived. How could you have figured out how to solve the ga? Go on, give it a try. I’ll watch and see how you beat Elder Gu."
"Who said I was going to play?" Wang Xiao retorted.
"If you don’t play, how can you win?" Ji Wuchang asked, baffled.
"Of course I can win. If you make it so your opponent has no pieces left to play, haven’t you won? It’s you who can never win—by placing yourself within Heaven and Earth, you’ve beco a chess piece yourself!"
Wang Xiao didn’t bother explaining further. The Gang Qi around him erupted, forming a world-shaking sword that he imdiately blasted toward the myriad stars in the heavens!
RUMBLE!
In an instant, Heaven and Earth trembled.
Wang Xiao had actually shaken the stars from their places, causing them to plumt to the ground.
Wang Xiao’s Great Daoist Nascent Soul flew out, seized the teors, and began to silently refine them.
As the starlight entered his body, Wang Xiao’s Great Daoist Nascent Soul and his Inner World began to grow at a rate visible to the naked eye!
Sword light erupted from his body, soaring to the heavens as he continuously brought down Star after Star, refining each one.
「A mont later.」
The myriad stars in the heavens had all vanished without a trace.
Wang Xiao felt his Great Daoist Nascent Soul and Inner World begin to vibrate intensely.
At that mont, Heaven and Earth seed to draw infinitely closer to him!
Then, with a soft PLOP, his Inner World, enveloping his Great Daoist Nascent Soul, sank into the space between Heaven and Earth!
RUMBLE!
At that mont, Wang Xiao felt as if he had beco one with Heaven and Earth.
At that mont, he had truly achieved One Thought Reaches Heaven!
’Whew... I knew it. My guess was right. These Starry Chess Pieces were the reward from the previous trial, and they’re also the key to winning this ga!’
Wang Xiao’s eyes shone with a brilliant light.
He had thought it strange that there was no reward after he cleared the previous trial.
But when Ji Wuchang consud the starlight, his Spirit had surged.
That’s why he had decided to analyze the stars directly.
And the results showed that these stars were actually Divine Object Third Grade!
In that case, the conclusion was self-evident.
Playing the ga honestly was definitely not the way to win.
He had to break the rules and refine the starlight!
Once all the starlight was refined, an opponent with no pieces left would naturally lose.
RUMBLE!
Just as Wang Xiao finished refining all the stars, the entire world of Washing God Star began to tremble.
Imdiately, a vast voice bood out.
"Wang Xiao has successfully passed the final assessnt and is chosen as the final candidate for the God Creation Plan!"
At the sa ti, this news was transmitted back to Earth’s Supre Federation.
In an instant, the entire Earth’s Supre Federation was in an uproar!
