Chapter 1057: Comprehending the Paths at Ancient Sage Mountain

Almost all the young prodigies of the First Continent were gathered in the five great halls of Ancient Sage Mountain.

They sat upright on the cushions, their eyes closed in meditation as they tried to comprehend the Path technique.

Most of them had their brows tightly knitted together, and their expressions were solemn.

Although they were all prodigies with outstanding comprehension abilities, each Shard of the Path contained an extremely profound Path technique. Even with their comprehension abilities, it was very difficult for them to comprehend it fully.

Generally speaking, comprehending one Path in half a month was already an amazing feat. Some of them could not even comprehend one Path.

Some people would sit in a hall for a few days before they would get up and head to another hall to try to comprehend the other Paths.

Each Shard contained a different Path technique with varying difficulties.

For example, the Shards in the fourth and fifth great halls were respectively the Path of Slaughter and the Path of Illusion and Reality. They were much more difficult to comprehend compared to the Shards in the three other halls.

Most people had cultivated lightning, flame, and ice techniques. It was naturally much easier to comprehend those three Paths.

In the first four days, almost no one had successfully comprehended a Path. In the next two days, some people began to comprehend them. They were the three eternal monsters and the Path-Chosen.

In the next ten days, more and more people began to fully comprehend the Paths.

“Haha! I’ve comprehended it!”

Joyful shouts rose and fell.

The prodigies were all extremely excited. Even comprehending a single Path made the journey worth it.

Some of them went to the other halls and continued to try, while others stopped trying. They loitered among the five halls and observed the others.

“Look! That’s Ji Wu. How many Paths has he comprehended?”

“I don’t know, probably at least three! Look at the jade stone in his hand. That’s the epiphany stone used by ancient sages. It’s a rare treasure that’s only a little less effective than the epiphany tree.”

“Damn! Why does he even have such a treasure?”

“Hah! He’s the luckiest person in the world, and he’s the number one prodigy of the Empyrean Sect. What’s so unusual about that?”

“Look, Yao Tian isn’t bad either. He’s using the ancient enlightenment banner!”

“And Jiang Tianwu uses ultimate-grade souldrift incense. It’s also a rare item.”

The people focused their attention on the three eternal monsters.

They surrounded the entrance of the hall and pointed at those people while discussing fervently.

After discussing it for a while, someone said, “What about that guy?”

“Which guy?”

“That weirdo who brought an entire tree!”

In an instant, everyone fell silent. Their faces twitched violently.

That guy had the best equipment. Even Ji Wu was not his match.

They were all puzzled. Where did that amazing person come from? He brought out an entire epiphany tree and stole Ji Wu’s limelight.

“I’ve never seen that person before. Perhaps he’s from some backwater faction! He’s lucky enough to obtain such a treasure.”

Someone sneered and did not think much of it.

However, some other people had grim expressions on their faces. “Hey! Do you think that the kid is that Qin guy?”

Everyone was shocked when they heard that.

Nameless Qin. That name was equally shocking as the three eternal monsters. Moreover, he was an incomparably evil supervillain.

“No… it can’t be!”

Someone forcefully gulped and said with great difficulty.

“I don’t think he’s Nameless Qin either. Why would he be so high-profile? He should know that all those Path-Chosen and the three eternal monsters are waiting for him!” Someone else said.

“Who else could he be?”

Everyone could not figure out anything.

A few more days passed in the blink of an eye. Finally, it was the fifteenth day.

More and more people comprehended at least one Path. Fewer and fewer people were sitting in the five great halls.

“Haha! I comprehended another Path!”

In the third hall, the Path-Chosen of the Deathless Sect opened his eyes and laughed.

At that point, he had already comprehended three Paths.

Most prodigies only had comprehended one Path. Comprehending three Paths was something worth bragging about.

Not long after, Duan Shaolong opened his eyes in the second hall and smiled gleefully.

“I, Duan Shaolong, am indeed a great prodigy!”

He lifted his chin, and he looked as if he was the most arrogant person in the world.

The Other Path-Chosen also opened their eyes. As Path-Chosen, most of them had comprehended three Paths, and only a few had only comprehended two.

In the various halls, more and more people opened their eyes, and expressions of dejection appeared on their faces. Most of them were people who had not even comprehended a single Path. They gave up and stood up.

A small number of people continued to persevere, hoping that a miracle would happen at the very last moment.

Fewer and fewer people were sitting in the five halls.

“That Ji guy is still trying hard. Yesterday, he comprehended the fourth Path, and he’s working on the fifth. He probably won’t comprehend it in a day.

“That Jiang guy and that Yao guy are still trying to comprehend their fourth Paths. I don’t know if they will make it in time.”

Everyone wandered around the five halls and started to observe.

“Where’s that guy?”

“I don’t know. No one knows how many Paths he has comprehended. He has the epiphany tree, so it shouldn’t be too bad, right? He must have at least three Paths!”

“Damn, that guy is so lucky to have an epiphany tree. If I had one, I would definitely be able to comprehend four Paths.”

Many people gathered at the entrance of the first hall. In that hall sat Yao Tian and that person with the epiphany tree.

Everyone continued to wait. When the sun was about to rise, and there were only about six hours left until the end, Jiang Tianwu opened his eyes in the third hall.

“He’s comprehended another one!”

“He’s at four Paths!”

At the entrance of the third hall, the crowd was in an uproar.

Two hours later, Yao Tian opened his eyes in the first hall. He had also just comprehended his fourth Path.

“All of them are at four Paths. They’re indeed eternal monsters!”

The crowd exclaimed.

After that, most of the people gathered in the fifth hall to watch Ji Wu. The entrance of the first hall was quite deserted.

In the plaza at the entrance of the hall, the elder was sitting cross-legged. His gaze swept between two halls, and he smiled playfully.

“How interesting! We’ve never had such a lively scene!

“The kid from the Empyrean Sect is truly remarkable! Not only is he incredibly lucky, but his talent is also quite astonishing!”

He looked in the direction of the fifth hall with admiration and stroked his long beard.

Following that, he looked toward the first hall.

In an instant, his expression became somewhat hostile.

He could guess that the brat in the first hall was that Qin brat.

In the Void Realm, that rascal had slapped him to death twice, which greatly displeased him.

“That rascal is also quite freakish. I wonder if he can break the record!” He muttered with a solemn expression.

The gates of Ancient Sage Mountain had been opened many times, but every time, the record was four paths. Most of the top prodigies could comprehend three Paths, and not a single individual had managed to comprehend all five Paths in half a month.

There were many outstanding prodigies and even eternal monsters in the current generation. Someone might be able to break the record!
