Volume 8: Peak of the Star Domain Chapter 1176 One year period!
Although the black-clothed young man who was conducting the test fell in a very embarrassing manner in the distance, almost no cultivators paid attention to him. Many cultivators focused their eyes on the light gate of the Tao Tower.
The young man in black suddenly felt extremely aggrieved. He didn't expect that he could not stand out, but instead became a laughing stock of others.
Seeing that no monk was looking at him, the young man in black immediately and quietly got up from the ground and swept off the dust on his body, as if to hide his previous embarrassment.
But all the cultivators here are in the third realm, and their spiritual perception is extremely sharp. The scene of him falling to the ground in a mess could not possibly escape the perception of these many cultivators.
However, the thoughts of the young man in black at this time were more the same as those of many cultivators. His heart was full of worry. Could it be that each cultivator could only enter this Taoist tower once, and they no longer had the chance to gain good fortune?
Many monks shook their heads slightly with gloomy faces. If the Taoist tower can only be entered once, then they can only guard a treasure mountain without being able to mine it.
Moreover, a cultivator in the Source Realm had tried it before. The level of this Taoist tower must be extremely amazing. It is impossible to break it open using brute force. I am afraid that even a great cultivator who has reached perfection in the Source Realm cannot do it.
There were also a few monks who still refused to believe it and personally approached the light gate of the Taoist Tower to test it, but they did not dare to use brute force to attack.
Soon, these monks all shook their heads with gloomy expressions, indicating that they were indeed unable to enter, which immediately made many monks feel even more depressed.
Seeing that many monks were extremely disappointed, a middle-aged woman whispered: "Will it take some time before we can enter again?"
Hearing her words, the eyes of many cultivators suddenly lit up. This was very possible. As long as the time came, they would be able to enter the Tao Tower again to gain good fortune.
However, another thought soon emerged among many monks. Even if the Dao Tower could really be entered after a period of time, they did not know that the time would be a big problem.
If they continue to wait here, and the intervals are extremely long, they will gain nothing, and may not even be able to enter the Dao Tower for the second time until the secret realm is closed.
This is a price that many cultivators are unwilling to accept. Even though they know that this Taoist tower can no longer be entered, they can still go to other areas of the secret realm to look for fortune with peace of mind.
If they knew the interval, they could temporarily go to other areas to look for opportunities, and then come back here when the time is right.
Moreover, because the spiritual consciousness is greatly affected within the secret realm, the distance that the sound transmission jade slip can convey is relatively limited. Even if someone is found to guard the place, no message will be passed on to others when you are able to enter again.
Because of this, many monks were suddenly in a dilemma, not knowing whether they should continue to wait here for the time when the Tao Tower would allow them to enter again.
When everyone looked lost, many cultivators were sent out of the Tao Tower again. Most of them were already powerful cultivators in the late and perfect stages of the Palm Source Realm.
These monks had passed through higher levels, but now they could no longer continue. They persisted for half a month, but had reached their limit.
Those who appeared later, although their cultivation levels were still in the late and perfect stages of the Palm Source Realm, were all relatively famous people. They had once been famous among various forces for their amazing talents and had become the best among their peers.
However, even the cultivator who had reached Perfection in the Palm Source Realm and persisted the longest could only do so for a month, and he finally gritted his teeth and shouted the word "give up" in the face of a life-and-death crisis.
When a month came, a cultivator in the early stage of Duyuan Realm with a head full of white hair and the appearance of a sixty-year-old man was sent out from the Dao Tower. It was obvious that he had reached his limit.
Seeing the old man walk out, many cultivators looked at him with strange eyes. They did not expect that a cultivator at the Duyuan realm would be sent out so quickly.
At this moment, many cultivators suddenly believed in their own guesses that the third stage of this Taoist tower did not test the cultivators' strength.
These monks immediately began to ponder what the test on the third level of the Tao Tower was. If they could find the answer, they should be able to gain more luck the next time they entered.
But many cultivators probably didn’t realize that even if they knew the answer, it would be almost impossible to find a shortcut, and it would be extremely difficult to advance to one more level in the third stage.
After this Duyuan Realm cultivator was sent out of the Dao Tower, he also recovered from his injuries as soon as possible, and then approached the light gate of the Dao Tower with his hands behind his back.
He wanted to try and see if he could enter the Tao Tower again.
Although he had heard the report from the younger generation of the sect and knew that a cultivator had forcefully attacked the light gate and was directly blown away, this cultivator in the Duyuan realm did not take it too seriously.
In his opinion, the reason why the previous cultivator at the Palm Source Realm was unable to open the door of the Dao Tower was perhaps simply because he was not strong enough. Naturally, a cultivator at the Palm Source Realm was far from being comparable to him.
The white-haired old man in the Duyuan realm quickly came to the light gate of the Dao Tower, raised his hand and pressed lightly on the light gate, but did not use the power of his cultivation.
Although the white-haired old man was quite confident in his own strength, he also knew that the level of the Dao Tower was extremely high and he could not afford to offend it, so he decided to play it safe and sense it first.
If he were to be knocked to the ground by the recoil force in front of so many cultivators like the previous cultivator in the Palm Source Realm, he would not be able to afford to lose face.
As his palm touched the light gate, the white-haired man felt an extremely hard touch, as if he was facing a door made of thousand-year-old cold iron, which was indestructible.
Although he did not feel any danger or rejection, the white-haired man did not dare to attack directly. He knew that if he forced his move, he would most likely suffer the same result as the young man in the Palm Source Realm before.
After knowing that this light gate could not be forced through, the white-haired man began to send out his spiritual sense to perceive carefully, trying to find a way to enter again.
Perhaps there is a hidden mechanism or a test above the light gate, and as long as you pass it, you can enter again.
After passing through the Dao Tower once, his cultivation has improved and he is close to a breakthrough. If he can obtain one or two more levels of Dao rhyme fortune, he will most likely be able to break through directly.
Because of this, the white-haired old man was even more eager to enter the Tao Tower again and break through his cultivation that had been stagnant for a long time.
The white-haired old man sensed very carefully, not missing any corner of the light gate, for fear of missing any clues.
Not only that, the white-haired old man kept rubbing the light gate with his hands, as if looking for a different touch.
Seeing the actions of the white-haired old man, the expressions of many cultivators outside the Taoist tower suddenly became extremely strange. They did not expect that this person, who seemed to be very confident, walked forward, but not only did he not dare to hit the door directly, but he also kept rubbing it with his hands as if he had encountered an antique that he could not let go.
Many cultivators also felt expectant. Could it be that this old man in the Duyuan Realm had really discovered something? Could he know how to enter the Dao Tower again?
If this were true, not only would they not laugh at the old man's unusual behavior, but they would be extremely grateful to him.
If they could enter the Tao Tower again, not to mention watching this old man rubbing the light gate like this, even if they were asked to go forward and rub it in front of everyone, they would do it without hesitation.
The old man at the Duyuan Realm rubbed the light gate for a while, but found nothing, and his spiritual sense did not sense anything unusual.
Just when he was about to continue stroking it for a while before giving up, a deep voice suddenly echoed in his heart: "I have endured for a long time, take your dirty hands away and get out of here, you can enter the Tao Tower again in a year!"
Hearing this voice, the old man in Duyuan Realm was suddenly extremely frightened. He immediately raised his hands from the light gate and looked up at the Dao Tower in great surprise.
Just now, when his spiritual sense spread out, he sensed very clearly that the voice did not come from the cultivators in the back, but from the Taoist Tower!
Moreover, there was an obvious strong sense of disgust in this voice, as if it was extremely dissatisfied with him stroking the light gate for a long time.
An extremely shocking thought suddenly emerged in the mind of the old man in the Duyuan realm. Could it be that this Taoist tower is not a dead object, but there are living beings or spirit objects inside it?
His thoughts were racing in his mind. Judging from the tone of the voice just now, it seemed that the voice was extremely angry about him stroking the door. It seemed that it had endured for a long time before speaking. It seemed more likely that it was the spirit of the Dao Tower.
Thinking of this, the white-haired old man in the Duyuan realm suddenly broke out in a cold sweat . He immediately clasped his fists and bowed respectfully, then turned around and flew towards the many cultivators.
At this moment, the white-haired old man couldn't help but feel lucky in his heart that the spirit of the Dao Tower was not angry. Otherwise, if it directly controlled the Dao Tower to attack him, he would probably not be able to resist it with his cultivation level of the early stage of the Duyuan Realm.
Seeing the white-haired old man from the Duyuan realm return, a cultivator immediately clasped his fists respectfully and asked, "Senior, what did you find?"
The white-haired old man recovered his composure as quickly as possible and said in a rather calm tone, "I have already found out that it takes a year to enter the Tao Tower. Forcing your way in will only cause extremely severe recoil."
Hearing his words, many cultivators were quite shocked. They did not expect that this person actually figured out the rules for entering the Tao Tower.
Many cultivators even sighed in their hearts that he was worthy of being a powerful being in the Source-During Realm, and was simply not comparable to them, the Source-Controlling Realm cultivators.
At the same time, many cultivators were already feeling a strong sense of surprise. It was great to be able to enter the Tao Tower again. A year was not a long time for them.
Moreover, there are still nearly nine years before the Tianchen Secret Realm is closed, so they can still enter the Dao Tower several times.
Thinking of this, many cultivators were extremely excited. If they could enter the Dao Tower a few more times, their cultivation would definitely be greatly improved. When they left the secret realm, their cultivation would be far higher than when they entered the secret realm.
Many of the Master Source Realm cultivators immediately bowed to the white-haired old man, and many of them said respectfully, "Thank you for telling me, senior. I am very grateful."
Of course, there were people who doubted the authenticity of the white-haired old man's words, but they had no way to verify it, let alone question it. They could only wait and see for the time being.
