Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

All the disciples, old and new alike, answered in unison.

The trial at the Desolate Ancient World was the best opportunity for the new disciples to showcase their abilities. If they missed this chance, they would never get another one. They would have to wait for future competitions to showcase their talent to have even a chance of getting noticed by a grand elder.

But the grand elders were rarely seen in normal competitions, and their attentions were extremely hard to attract.

Many grand elders would be present for the trial at Desolate Ancient World. Of course, they were all hidden far away or were scattered around the various mountains.

New disciples meant new blood. This trial was the easiest way to discover talented young buds to nurture.

All of the grand elders had already reached a point where they could no longer grow rapidly in terms of cultivation. They relied on a slow, constant growth as time passed.

But time was nothing for them. The older they were, the higher their cultivation level was. Some had even lived several thousand years.

Apart from treasures capable of increasing their cultivation level, nothing much could pique their interest. And apart from treasures, the only hobby these grand elders had was to nurture some talented young experts.

“Now I will open up the Desolate Ancient World.” The elder floating in the sky waved his hand. A vigorous power poured out like a torrential flood. The Six Dao Palaces started trembling, causing many new disciples to look around nervously.

Several beams of light shot up from the Six Dao Palaces, eventually forming six energy beams of differing colors.

As the six beams rose into the sky, projections appeared within the beam. They were the wills of the Six Daos.

Ye Mo didn’t bother to pay attention to what happened next. Instead, he fixed all his attention on the light beams, gazing upon the profound wills that had appeared.

It was an extremely rare opportunity that Ye Mo wouldn’t give up.

“Human Dao, Beast Dao, Hell Dao, Angry Spirit Dao, Heavenly Dao, Asura Dao.”

Ye Mo sank into deep contemplation.

The six light beams suddenly transformed into Six Light Formation. Within the Six Light Formation, rays of light twisted and turned repeatedly and a desolate energy emanated from the formation.

Slowly, the Six Light Formation took form and the six light beams slowly vanished. But Ye Mo was still deep in contemplation.

“Huh?” Suddenly, the sound of an old man exclaiming in admiration rang out in the air. But nobody heard it.

When the new disciples saw the forming of the Six Light Formation, they were incomparably awed. They were sure that after entering this Six Light Formation, they would arrive at the so-called Desolate Ancient World.

“Here, I need to first remind the new disciples. This trial will take place in the Desolate Ancient World. After entering, you need to look for the Desolate Ancient Pearl before leaving with it through the Six Light Formation. Only by accomplishing that task will you be considered to have passed this trial. If you fail to obtain a Desolate Ancient Pearl, or you obtain one but fail to leave through the Six Light Formation in time, you would be trapped within the Desolate Ancient World. The trial will last for one month. After one month, the Six Light Formation will automatically close.”

The moment the grand elder said those words, some of the new students were stupefied. But nobody voiced any questions.

The grand elder nodded before continuing his reminder, “Within the Desolate Ancient World, there are powerful demonic beasts, even a few Transcendence Realm demonic beasts in there. You might also encounter your seniors who failed to leave during the previous trial. Any disciple that has managed to survive that long within is definitely an extraordinary person. But whether those seniors are friends or foes, you will have to judge for yourself.”

That announcement caused a wave of speculation among the new disciples.

Then, a new disciple raised his hand and asked, “Can we opt out of this trial?”

“You can. But you will no longer be a Door of Desolation disciple moving forward.” The grand elder directed his words to all the new students. “And during this trial, the three disciples who collect the highest number of Desolate Ancient Pearls will be rewarded with Bejeweled Weapons. As for the Desolate Ancient Pearls themselves, they can be exchanged at a rate of 1:100 for a rank four pill, Transcendence Pill.”

“Transcendence Pill?”

Ye Mo had just recovered from his deep contemplation and that was the first thing he heard. He exclaimed in astonishment. That caused everyone to look at him in disdain. This Asura Palace disciple was too much of a country bumpkin.

The so-called Transcendence Pill was a pill suited for the cultivation of Transcendence Realm experts. It was a rank four pill, higher in grade than the Mixed Energy Pill. A pill like that would be extremely beneficial for many experts. So long as the expert’s body was able to sustain the energy contained within, the expert’s cultivation speed would skyrocket.

During his time in Tianwu Kingdom, Ye Mo had never seen a Transcendence Pill before.

Perhaps rank four alchemists existed within Tianwu Kingdom, but the materials for Transcendence Pill refining didn’t. To refine the pill, one needed the Fragrant Spirit Grass and the True Fire Wood. They were both extremely rare, and Ye Mo had never seen either before.

Of course, the Transcendence Pill was extremely expensive. A single Transcendence Pill could be traded for 1,000 Mixed Energy Pills.

“Alright. Before the start of the trial, I will introduce one special contestant in this trial. She is the future young madam.”

Ye Mo’s pupils shrank.

A clump of faint green poisonous gas drifted forth in the air. The gas wasn’t toxic and smelled pleasant. A woman in white walked out the clump of gas. She was exceptionally beautiful, with long black hair cascading down her back like a waterfall. She wore a white veil over her face, revealing only her eyes, which looked like a pair of luminous moons.

She had a slender body, and a poisonous mist swirled around her at all times. She looked like a poison fairy that had descended from the sky.

Everyone exclaimed in admiration when they saw her. Some men couldn’t look away from her. Even someone like Nangong Qingxue fell slightly short of her in terms of beauty.

“It’s Yue Yue!”

Ye Mo was about to charge forward but Miao Miao stopped him. “Junior Brother Ye Mo, is this the woman you’ve been waiting for day and night? She’s a remarkable beauty. But she’s not someone you can lay your fingers on. Didn’t you hear what the grand elder said? She’s the future young madam, and one day will even be the madam of the Door of Desolation. She’s a true tyrant of the Zone of Desolation, not a person we can afford to provoke.”

“But I like her, and she likes me as well!” Ye Mo became agitated. “She must have seen me! Why is she not coming to see me? She used to cultivate at the Tiandu Palace. Why is she here at the Door of Desolation? And why is she suddenly the future young madam?”

“You can think about that after you’ve entered the Desolate Ancient World,” Miao Miao said anxiously. “Remember, within the Desolate Ancient World, prioritize preserving your life. Du Long of Human Dao Palace is targeting you. Be careful in there. And no matter what, trust no one.”

“Don’t worry, Senior Sister Miao Miao.” Ye Mo glanced at Xiao Yue and when he saw that she wasn’t looking at him, he looked down in disappointment, slowly regaining his previous calm.

“Alright,” the elder said. “Now the trial shall begin. No fights are allowed for one minute after entering the Desolate Ancient World. If you break this rule, you will be immediately disqualified from the trial.”

Whoosh. Whoosh. Whoosh.

All the new disciples activated their true energy. They transformed into beams of light that all streaked into the Desolate Ancient World. The powerful ones would want to have the advantage of arriving first, while the weaker ones would want to distance themselves from the others as soon as possible before looking for a Desolate Ancient Pearl and spending the month in hiding. A month later, they would be able to escape the Desolate Ancient World.

When Ye Mo saw Xiao Yue entering the Six Light Formation with a clump of green mist swirling around her, he charged inside as well.

Eventually, all the new disciples entered the Desolate Ancient World and the Six Light Formation was locked down. The old disciples outside sat down cross-legged, awaiting the result one month from now.
