The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2305: Chapter 2305: No Harm in Trying

The process of testing the Divine Soul Body purity is simple: you either pass or fail. Even if you try a thousand times with the Soul Validation Stone, the results won’t change.

Weng Guang’s face showed undisguised disappointment.

Before the test, he had confidence in himself, having already mastered a Low-level Soul Skill, and he didn’t find practicing it very difficult. In the Teapot Bay region, Weng Guang’s Soul Cultivation Talent was considered relatively strong. But now, the test results were certainly a blow to him.

”Brother Wen...”

”Even Brother Wen failed; it’s unlikely for us to pass the test.”

Several other young people shook their heads and said.

Although it seemed they were regretting Weng Guang’s failure, in truth, most were inwardly glad. None of them were friends, and they barely knew one another. Who would want someone else to steal their opportunity to become a disciple?

Weng Guang remained silent and stepped back to make space.

”Since none of us can qualify, I’ll test second!” a young man in a golden robe said, gritting his teeth.

”Brother Li is truly straightforward!”

”We’ll all cheer for Brother Li!” others said one after another.

The young man referred to as Brother Li also failed the test, similar to Weng Guang, only causing the Divine Soul Light to flicker a few times on the surface of the Soul Validation Stone.

Then another person stepped forward for the test, and they likewise didn’t pass.

Three young cultivators tested the Divine Soul purity, and none were qualified.

The remaining ones who hadn’t tested couldn’t even smile. The test was really hard, and they had only heard how difficult it was at the Soul Leaving Mountain, but they now truly felt the oppression and helplessness through personal experience.

After the failure of the three, the remaining young people were hesitant to step forward for the test. They all looked around at each other, none wanting or daring to approach the Soul Validation Stone.

Jing Yan stood at a distance.

He didn’t want to become a disciple, so he didn’t need to test his Divine Soul Body. When Weng Guang and others tested their Divine Soul Body, Jing Yan remained silent. He only felt some thoughts, realizing that even these Nightmare Clan cultivators with Soul Cultivation Talent probably had impurities in their Divine Souls.

”Brother Jing Yan!”

Though Jing Yan stayed far away, someone noticed him. A somewhat chubby young man looked at Jing Yan and called his name.

”Why are you standing so far away?”

”Come test your Divine Soul Body.” The Little Fatty beckoned to Jing Yan.

”Me?” Jing Yan pointed to himself.

”Yeah, come over and give it a try. Perhaps your Divine Soul Body meets the standard. It could be a chance to reach the skies in a single bound!” The Little Fatty said with a smile.

Jing Yan shook his head and said, ”I won’t test it, you guys carry on.”

Upon hearing Jing Yan’s words, the Little Fatty’s face darkened.

”What’s this, Brother Jing Yan putting on airs in front of us? You came out of Iron Bay so you must know Zi Rong. Even if you don’t know Zi Rong, you surely know Lord Bu Yun, right?” the Little Fatty said sternly.

”Bu Yun?” Jing Yan looked at the young female cultivator named Zi Rong.

”Zi Rong is Lord Bu Yun’s descendant. You can’t possibly not know what kind of status Lord Bu Yun holds, right?” The Little Fatty snorted coldly, full of arrogance.

Jing Yan nodded and smiled, ”Bu Yun Dominator, I do know. I really didn’t expect Zi Rong to be a descendant of Bu Yun Dominator.”

Before the Little Fatty mentioned Zi Rong’s identity, Jing Yan indeed didn’t know she was related to Bu Yun Dominator. Jing Yan’s impression of Bu Yun was quite good; among the Dominators of Iron Bay, only Bu Yun had ever given Jing Yan a good feeling. The other three, after Jing Yan acquired the Moon God Bell, had all harbored devious intentions hoping to force him to hand over the Moon God Bell. But Bu Yun kindly reminded Jing Yan to be careful of the Wanmo Mountain Demon Lord and never seemed to desperately want the Moon God Bell.

Bu Zirong nodded toward Jing Yan but didn’t speak.

She was a direct descendant of Bu Yun Dominator, of noble status, and had never heard of this young cultivator named Jing Yan, who didn’t seem to have an impressive background, so she felt there was no need to interact much with Jing Yan.

”Now you know what kind of status we hold, right?” The Little Fatty continued, ”Besides Zi Rong, while we may not be Iron Bay cultivators, our status is similar to Zi Rong’s.”

Implying, do you know our status and refuse to grovel?

Jing Yan chuckled softly, clearly understanding what the Little Fatty meant. He thought to himself, even the overlords backing you are nothing in front of me, Jing Yan.

”I really don’t need to test the Divine Soul Body,” Jing Yan continued shaking his head.

This time, not only did the Little Fatty’s face turn sour, but others also began glaring at Jing Yan.

”Seems someone here thinks they’re above us!”

”Hehe... Why does it sound like this guy addresses us condescendingly? Do you guys feel it too?”

”Hey, this guy named Jing Yan, do you think you’re so great? Great enough to disregard us all?” A few people spoke up, voicing dissatisfaction towards Jing Yan.

Jing Yan was also helpless; he was standing aside without provocation, yet somehow all this anger was directed at him, inexplicably. What’s all this talk about not giving face or putting on airs—it was simply baffling.

”Jing Yan, since you’re here, why not test your Divine Soul Body?” Bu Zirong spoke up.

She bore no ill intentions, merely feeling that if Jing Yan continued to upset the others, it might lead to trouble. If he tested his Divine Soul Body and failed, the others naturally wouldn’t focus on him anymore.

”Alright then! Since that’s the case, I’ll give it a try.” Jing Yan slightly shifted his thoughts and agreed.

His own Chaos World had undergone Nirvana Rebirth, making his Divine Soul Body almost perfectly pure, so he couldn’t fail Kong You Immortal Venerable’s test. Yet, Jing Yan thought it might be interesting to see how many Divine Soul Lights he could activate on the Soul Validation Stone.

During the Divine Soul Body test, the more Divine Soul Lights activated, the stronger the Soul Cultivation Talent is proven to be. A cultivator who could maintain one Divine Soul Light would be considered top-tier in soul cultivation talent. Activating two Divine Soul Lights would attract Kong You Immortal Venerable’s attention. Activating three Divine Soul Lights—such cases, even Kong You hadn’t seen many.

Soul cultivation demands very high purity in the Divine Soul Body.
