Library of Heaven's Path 2: Eternal Fate of the Heavens

"Alright, I'll go first!"

Sun Qiang nodded and approached the tombstone.

"There's no need to mobilize the understanding of fate. Just relax, and the Wanxiang tablet will naturally be able to test it out..." Qian Yuhuan, the leader, said.

Sun Qiang responded, having watched intently when the young master was tested just moments ago; it seemed quite straightforward.

With this thought in mind, he gently pressed his palm against it.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Buzz!

A red light immediately burst forth.

"Having two Fate Masters appear in one test is quite an event..."

Shi Yunjing nodded satisfactorily.

In a usual test, having one person pass out of ten would be considered good. Having two appear at the same time was extremely rare...

"Cough cough, Hall Master, before this test, there were horses and chickens..."

Elder Zhu Xun had just started to describe the previous commotion caused by Yan Sansan when the Wanxiang tablet in front of him vibrated again.

"Buzz~~"

Another orange light shone forth.

"???"

The words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat, unable to come out.

Not just him, but also Qian Yuhuan, the leader, was completely dumbfounded.

The four colors flashing just now could mean the Wanxiang tablet was malfunctioning, but how could this chubby man also display two types of light?

Once again, silence fell around, everyone looking at each other in dismay.

Displaying four kinds of light could be said to be ghostly...

Then this time, seeing ghosts twice?

"That... Leader Qian, could this one also be broken?"

Zhang Xuan awkwardly spoke as he pulled Sun Qiang aside.

Although he didn't know why this guy also showed two colors, it was still better to keep a low profile.

"Perhaps..."

Knowing the other was hinting at him... With reluctant courage, it took a while before Yuhuan pointed to the other side: "This is the last Wanxiang tablet we of the Wanxiang Sect have..."

The Zhou Yi Dynasty's Wanxiang Sect had only three Wanxiang tablets in total. Saying that they were broken meant there was no more testing possible.

"Alright, go test over there... cough cough, everyone be careful, just light it up, no need to linger too long..."

Zhang Xuan coughed as he looked towards Luo Ruoxin and the others.

"Right!"

Understanding his intentions, Luo Ruoxin smiled slightly.

Her husband was great in many ways, just overly fond of keeping a low profile...

Zhang Xuan finally sighed with relief and turned to the chubby man in front of him: "What's going on? Did you comprehend two types of fate?"

Sun Qiang nodded, transmitting his voice: "I learned the Giant Wave Formation from the young master. Just now in the River of Destiny, I saw the fate of business and learned it impulsively..."

"Business?" Zhang Xuan frowned.

He could study multiple types of fate because he had the Library of Heaven's Path, but what was going on with Sun Qiang?

Could it be related to him helping activate the Source Pool?

Possibly!

The method he used to open the Source Pool was the same as creating a New World; he could freely learn multiple paths without interference, so it made sense the other could learn two.

Of course, this was just a conjecture, whether it was true or not would need to be explored slowly later on.

"Wait... Since Sun Qiang can learn, couldn't others do it too?"

An idea emerged, and Zhang Xuan's eyelids twitched as he quickly looked forward.

Two people displaying two kinds of light, if a third one emerged, it would be impossible to stay low-key...

At this moment, Luo Ruoxin had just placed her palm on the stone pillar, smiling gently, and in that moment, a dazzling red light shone.

Swallowing hard, Zhang Xuan stared intently, considering how to explain later that this pillar was also broken, when he saw that she had already released her palm and walked back to the crowd.

"Phew!"

Zhang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed Luo Ruoxin was reliable. Otherwise, if three stone pillars all emitted many types of light, even the most foolish would realize that the problem lay not with the Wanxiang tablets, but with them.

Following then, Luo Qiqi, Liu Yang, Yuan Tao, and others took their turns, all only displaying red light without a second color.

"Not right!"

Feeling astounded inside, suddenly Zhang Xuan realized something and looked at the chubby man in front of him: "Have you comprehended fate to the second realm?"

The different lights produced by the tombstone were not because of the number of fate comprehensions, but because… their realms were different!

Red light for the first level, orange light for the second...

This guy displayed_two colors because he had comprehended two different tiers of fate.

Sun Qiang scratched his head awkwardly: "Yes, that [Form] the young master taught me... I learned it very fast! These few days while I was out gathering information, I kept using it and have already reached the second realm..."

Zhang Xuan's eyelids twitched.

He could already imagine the posture and appearance this guy would assume during a dispute...

I suppose you just love showing off...

Sigh, being such a low-profile person, how could I have a butler who likes showing off so much? A real headache!

Frustrated in his heart, not far away, Shi Yunjing's eyelids kept twitching, and he was so shocked that he was rendered speechless.

Normally, having one person pass in a test of ten people was considered good, and then... the second, third, fourth, fifth...

In the blink of an eye, it was already the tenth person's turn, and all nine had passed!

This isn't a test for seeking fate, it's just handing it over!

Quivering lips, he continued looking forward. Explore more stories with empire

"Buzz!"

The tenth person touched the stone, and likewise, red light flickered, evidently passing the test effortlessly.

"Ten people all passed..."

Swallowing hard, Shi Yunjing was left speechless.

Having managed the Zouyi City Heaven Mandate Hall for twenty years, the most who had ever passed in one test was three, ten out of ten passing... was unprecedented, unheard of.

"This is bound to cause a sensation..."

He shook his head helplessly.

If the Heaven Mandate Hall was still around and the test occurred inside, he would have had ways to cover it up. Now being in the information-rich Wanxiang Sect, without accidents, it would be known to surrounding nations within a short half-day...

However, this was also good as it would definitely attract more talents to their Heaven Mandate Hall.

He had just felt relieved when he saw the eleventh person step up.

"???"

Shi Yunjing was befuddled.

Wasn't the test meant for ten people? What was happening?

Seeing his expression, Zhu Xun hurried to explain: "Reporting to the Hall Master... these people are all related to Young Master Zhang. Just now, just now Young Master Zhang said to avoid troubles, he decided to have a group test, and I thought it would also lower costs, so I agreed..."

"A test for 11 people?" Shi Yunjing's expression soured.

"12 people..." Zhu Xun said hurriedly.

While speaking, the last two people also lit up the tombstone with a red light...

"..."

Shi Yunjing was left speechless.

Testing 12 people at once, all becoming Fate Masters, even at the headquarters would be utterly sensational!

No wonder the Heaven Mandate Hall collapsed...

Shi Yunjing finally grasped the situation and glared fiercely, gesturing grandly: "Violating the rules by letting so many people test at once, Zhu Xun, just wait to be punished when you get back!"

Is this what you call lowering costs? You've directly exposed our base!

"I..."

Elder Zhu Xun wanted to cry but had no tears.

It was just a test, and he hadn't expected such a turnout!

If to blame, it could only be blamed on the people Young Master Zhang brought being too outrageously skilled...

"Forget it, this matter can't be entirely blamed on you. Rest assured, I will report truthfully! As for how headquarters will decide, I have no control over that!"

Seeing his expression, Shi Yunjing sneered, but then thought of something and couldn't help saying: "Right, what were you about to tell me before?"

When Sun Qiang was being tested earlier, the other wanted to speak but was interrupted due to the dual colors.

"I wanted to say... before Zhang and his people were tested, his disciple and pet also underwent the test!"

Elder Zhu Xun spoke hesitantly.

"Pet?"

Shi Yunjing curiously asked: "What tier is the Primordial Beast? Star River first level? Second? Or does it have some pure bloodline?"

"It's..."

Zhu Xun pointed to not far off: "That horse over there, and the chicken next to it."

"???"

Shi Yunjing was stunned again, but then sighed: "You mean, they're Zhang's pets? With his ability to pick people, everyone becoming a Fate Master, he really has poor taste in pets..."

With his discernment, he could see that the horse and the chicken were quite ordinary.

"Poor?"

Zhu Xun scratched his head awkwardly: "This chicken and this horse also passed the test and became Fate Masters... seems like they received an opportunity even higher than Yan Sansan, so later, when making the tokens, make them for these too..."

"???"

Shi Yunjing stood there, dumbstruck, unable to speak again.

He thought today's shocks were explosive enough, yet these were far from enough!

Actually, not only was he shocked, but Qian Yuhuan and everyone present were similarly at a loss for words.

Especially Yan Sansan, who was almost crying.

An hour ago, when he defeated Fei Ling, Su Yunzhe, it was as glorious as it was possible, boasting absolute confidence, but now suddenly feeling... even inferior to a chicken...

Is this my fate?

...

"So many people, all passed the test!"

Likewise, Mo Hong swallowed hard, casually throwing out a few Origin Currency as a tip, and left the cafe.

As an elder of the Zouyi Heavenly Fate Palace, he naturally knew how rare Fate Masters were, and bringing everyone to pass the test in one go was incredibly against the odds!

Previously, he thought Zhang Xuan too young, and that Sage Min's stunning saber art probably had nothing to do with him, but now this thought had completely changed.

Capable of making the Wanxiang tablet display four colors, having an attitude like Qian Yuhuan's, having everyone he brought pass the examination, from any point of view, it seemed entirely extraordinary...

Maybe... Min Jiangtao's saber art was indeed taught by this guy!

...

Above the skies of the Zhou Yi Dynasty, an old figure appeared abruptly.

It was Elder Zhou, previously capturing the Seven-Section Worm.

At this moment, he quietly hovered mid-air, looking at the vast city below, contemplative.

"Not bad guessing, the offspring who comprehended my Cooking Dao Destiny is in this city, just don't know whether it's a male or female..."

Elder Zhou chuckled: "If it's a male, treat him like a son, if it's a female, then as a daughter... Regardless of who it is, they are Elder Zhou's kin!"
