“How amazing is this! I’ve counted ten sky-prides who have been marked as excellent. Seven of them are from Planet Jin and Planet Zi, while the rest are from an unknown land. Perhaps they’re the sky-prides from those ancient orthodoxies.”

“Usually, only a couple sky-prides of such caliber would show up for the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal’s Daoist Weapon. But now there’s ten of them and maybe more to come!”

“Why do I sense an unusual aura?”

“Indeed.”

“Perhaps it’s the aura of the Daoist Weapon. The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal has said it himself that this is his greatest invention so far.”

“Hm, that’s possible.”

The emergence of the Immortal Progenies had aroused quite a discussion.

With that, Chu Kuangren made his move.

He stored his warship away and paced towards the White-Jaded Dragons Gate.

The cultivators were shocked to see his arrival.

“For some reason, I can’t seem to decipher his aura. But his composure is surely extraordinary.”

“Phew. With that composure and appearance of his, he’s surely one of the most handsome beings throughout the Violet Gold Galaxy.”

“Indeed. What an extraordinary person.”

“How qualified do you think he is?”

“He seems like a stellar individual. I bet he’ll be marked as above average.”

Due to the appearance of the Immortal Progenies before him and his extraordinary aura, Chu Kuangren became the center of attention.

Then, Chu Kuangren stepped before the dragons gate.

The white-jaded dragons turned towards Chu Kuangren and cast their white beams over him.

Chu Kuangren felt a sense of warmth hugging his body.

It felt as if he was immersed in a hot spring.

“Thirty-nine years old.”

Chu Kuangren lamented at the mention of his age. Time had surely flown by in his cultivation journey. Unknowingly, Chu Kuangren was approaching the age of forty.

However, he did not let himself feel down about it.

After all, that was merely the age of his physical body. His soul had once lived through more than ten thousand years in the archaic era.

Age was just a number to Chu Kuangren.

Even so, it did not stop him from feeling nostalgic for all those years that had passed.

The cultivators around Chu Kuangren were dumbfounded when they heard his age and looked at him like he was an alien to them.

“Thirty-nine years old?”

“Is this brat fooling with us? What cultivation level could a thirty-nine-year-old possibly have? He’s just here to tag along to the party.”

“That’s right, little one. Are you even a Sage yet? Hurry up and go home. Your mommy’s waiting for you at the dinner table.”

“Hear hear…”

The crowd looked at Chu Kuangren with contempt, like he was a toddler who had yet walked his first step.

However, they soon noticed something strange happening.

The cultivators stared at one of the pale dragons.

The pale dragon had yet to announce his qualification.

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren ignored their mockery. He was only interested in knowing how qualified the dragon would mark him as.

“Q-Q-Q–Q-Q-Qua…”

The pale dragon never said the word.

Chu Kuangren stared strangely at the dragon as if it was a malfunctioning copier machine. “Is this dragon gate glitching?”

Was it so difficult to announce his qualifications?

Did it not work perfectly fine for everyone before him?

“Lil Ai, what’s going on?” Chu Kuangren inquired with his thoughts.

“It probably saw something it shouldn’t.”

The Omniscient Spirit sneered.

‘Hmph.’

‘How could a measly weapon like the dragon gate see through my Master?’

‘It should’ve known its place.’

Crack, crack…

The stuttering pale dragon let out a painful wail as cracks appeared all over its body.

In an abrupt explosion, the pale dragon shattered into pieces.

Its draconic partner could only stare at the shattered pieces in horror.

The cultivators had a similar reaction.

‘What just happened?’

‘Did it try to deduce Chu Kuangren’s qualification so hard it self-destructed?’

“Holy heavens, for many years the White-Jaded Dragons Gate existed, this has never happened before.”

“Who in the world is that guy?”

At that moment, a golden ray of light shot across the sky and manifested itself as a new white-jaded dragon pillar.

“Please enter, little one.”

An elderly voice echoed through the scene.

It was the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal.

Chu Kuangren nodded while he glanced curiously upon the new dragon pillar.

No wonder it broke so easily. It was no different than a mass-produced factory item.

The newly appeared pale dragon shivered when he caught Chu Kuangren looking at him and shut its eyes tight to avoid staring back at him.

It feared it would end up in a similar fate as its unfortunate predecessor.

Chu Kuangren touched his face.

Did he look that scary?

He swore he was still the same handsome person.

Never mind. That pale dragon needed a lesson in appreciating beauty.

Chu Kuangren whined to himself as he stepped into the gate.

The cultivators were riled up once he left.

After a while, the test continued.

Somewhere in the Dusty Sky Planet.

A palace stood among the clouds.

A white-haired elder was staring puzzledly at a screen before him. It was the image of the dragon pillar shattering into pieces.

“How could a person like that exist?”

“His qualification has transcended beyond the white-jaded dragon’s estimation limits. It even self-destructed while deducing his strengths as if it had trespassed into… forbidden knowledge?!”

“I don’t think even the Immortals could’ve provoked such a reaction.”

The elderly person, who was none other than the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal, was mumbling to himself.

His heart aching at the image of the shattered white-jaded dragon pillar. “I’ve spent so much effort in carving this pillar and have only so few to spare. Sigh. A single pillar is worth several Daoist Weapons.”

He shook his head and waved his hand. The image before him now changed to broadcast the current situation at the Great Yunxu Formation. It was a mega formation he had previously erected.

“Let’s see what other sky-prides there are.”

…

In the Great Yunxu Formation.

Chu Kuangren stepped into a stele forest, where a gate was situated at the far end with a sign that indicated those who passed through this gate would proceed to the next challenge.

Several cultivators had already started attempting to break through the formation.

However, it was an unsightly scene.

Several cultivators were drooling over some steles as they clung tightly onto them. Others were manically smashing on the steles as if the slabs had somehow provoked their deep-seated vengeance.

Chu Kuangren was surprised to see what lay ahead. “I see. This is a formation capable of misguiding one’s heart.”

Chu Kuangren had a fair share of knowledge in formations.

After all, his Earth Spirit and Hell Spirit had spent several millennia leveraging on his formation master talent to research these topics.

Chu Kuangren himself was unclear how proficient his formation expertise was by now.

“Well, it’s not difficult to solve this formation.”

Chu Kuangren strolled across the stele forest as if he was taking a walk in the park. Soon, he reached the gate and stepped through without even turning back.

With that, the first layer of the Great Yunxu Formation was solved.

Upon seeing that, the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal was appalled. “This guy seems proficient in formation-related knowledge. Every step he took was premeditated.”

“Interesting. There are nine layers to this mega formation, forged by ninety-nine formations that interlinked with one another within. Let’s see how many layers you can solve before you crack.”

Considering Chu Kuangren had first damaged his dragon pillar and now overcame the first layer of the mega formation with great ease, the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal could not help but feel a little competitive.
