Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

The Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens, for all its grandeur, cannot cultivate multiple Sacred Sages in one generation. Given that the other reserve Sacred Sage exceeds Yu Ke in talent, this further diminishes Yu Ke’s value.

It is foreseeable that, in the future, Dong Youzi, Hea Zhen, and Ji Zhaoyang will forge ahead under the nurturing of the sect, while he, due to lack of resources, will be easily left behind.

After arriving at the Ingenious Tiny World, Yu Ke has only displayed his Spirit Refining cultivation but has hidden his true identity. There are two main reasons for this.

One is the awareness of the disparity between his identity and that of the other three. And secondly, he harbors a selfish desire to enjoy being addressed as a Sacred Sage in this manner.

Originally, as the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda trial began and everyone’s progress in the tower was more or less the same, Dong Youzi and Hea Zhen had gradually acknowledged Yu Ke’s title as Sacred Sage.

However, just then, Shen Yuan’s attack severely damaged Yu Ke, causing a resurgence of contempt towards him, and Ji Zhaoyang’s following words ruthlessly stripped away his remaining dignity.

With these realizations in mind, Shen Yuan gazed at Yu Ke with a hint of sympathy in his eyes. His casual remarks almost made Yu Ke vomit blood.

“And here I thought you were a Sacred Sage. Turns out, you’re just a counterfeit.”

Laughing out loud, Ji Zhaoyang stepped towards Shen Yuan and said:

“Exactly, he’s just a small character who doesn’t know his place. Please don’t take him seriously, Dao friend.”

While saying this, Ji Zhaoyang bowed to Shen Yuan and said:

“I owe you a favor, but I haven’t had the chance to ask your name yet. My apologies.”

It was clear that Ji Zhaoyang was showing his goodwill towards Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuan, who managed to reach the thirteenth floor and held a secret power, had presented him with a precious treasure, thus earning his respect.

At the same time, he was also showing the other three their relationship, especially giving Yu Ke a warning glance.

Shen Yuan made a Dao seal and said in response:

“From Falling Clouds Sect, Shen Yuan.”

When Shen Yuan mentioned the Falling Clouds Sect, everyone blinked, and after allowing the information to circulate in their minds, they were sure they had never heard of this Taoist tradition.

However, being able to reach their level, they would naturally not look down on others because of the Tao’s lineage.

Smiling, Ji Zhaoyang solemnly replied, “From the Great Yin Ji family, Ji Zhaoyang.”

After the formalities were exchanged, Ji Zhaoyang turned to the rest of the group and announced:

“Since we are all here to challenge the tower, we should seize every moment.”

“Starting on the thirteenth floor, the trials will become far more difficult, and we will need multiple attempts to find a breakthrough. Our focus should be on the upcoming trials.”

Under Ji Zhaoyang’s guidance, everyone turned their attention away from the recent brief conflict, and onto the giant black stone platform.

At some point, the black stone platform that was previously shattered by the Sun God’s Power had been restored to its original condition, without a trace of damage.

As everyone gathered in the center of the platform, two beams of light quietly appeared above it.

“Why are there only two beams?”

Hea Zhen, the Sacred Sage of the Purple Jade Clear Serenity Heavens, couldn’t help but voice his doubts.

But when the light disappeared, revealing two doors on the platform, everyone’s face changed drastically, except for Shen Yuan’s.

“Impossible!”

“Why are there only Heaven Gate and Earth Gate?”

“Where did the Mortals Gate disappear to?”

“What’s wrong with this trial?”

As they looked up at the platform, only the Heaven and Earth gates remained of the original three Gates.

The Mortals Gate, a symbol of the Primal Chaos Realm civilization history, was nowhere to be found, implying that anyone who wanted to reach the thirteenth floor could only choose between the Heaven Gate and the Earth Gate.

Inhaling deeply, Ji Zhaoyang suppressed his astonishment and said in a low voice:

“The Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda has been opened countless times, and we have never encountered this situation before.”

“But since the trial gates have appeared, even if we choose to exit now, we will face the trial of the Heaven and Earth gates when we reenter.”

“So, I propose we all share the records from our sects about the Heaven and Earth gates to help us overcome the upcoming trials.”

After a brief pause, seeing no one object, Ji Zhaoyang began:

“I’ll lead by example, and share the Royal family’s records relating to the Heaven and Earth gates.”

“According to our record, if someone fails the trial of the Heaven or Earth gate, their memory relevant to the trial will be erased.”

“Additionally, unlike the Mortals Gate where mistakes can be made, there are absolutely no allowances for errors in the Heaven and Earth Gate trials. One failure means the end of the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda’s trial.”

After Ji Zhaoyang finished speaking, Dong Youzi calmly said:

“One of my ancestors once entered the Earth Gate trial, and with certain methods, shared some information about it. It seems to be related to earthly disasters.”

“This also aligns with the terrains of rivers, lakes and mountains depicted on the Earth Gate.”

Robed in purple, Hea Zhen frowned and after reflecting a moment, shared:

“The Mortals Gate and Earth Gate trials are different. The Mortals Gate trial uses a fabricated history recorded by the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda. The Earth Gate trial, on the other hand, concerns the real world of the Primal Chaos Realm.”

“An elder from our sect once appeared deep within the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, sighted by another senior of our sect.”

“But when the senior inquired back at the sect, the elder claimed he had been in the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda trial and had not been to the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains at all.”
