  Wei Yi hesitated a little, feeling that he would be unwilling to give up just like that.

  He was even sorry for the jade slip that the old man gave him.

  After all, this Human Emperor's Palace will be open for a year. Go in and take a look. If you don't even pass the first palace within a year, then give up.

  Spend a hundred years with your family and then talk about it.

  Thinking of this, Wei Yi opened the door and walked into the first palace.

  The palace was extremely empty, with nothing inside except for a strange-shaped stone tablet standing in the center, with the same four characters engraved on it - Houde Zaiwu.

  That stone tablet can be used for "enlightenment" and "assessment".

  If you pass the assessment, you can directly enter the next palace. If you fail, you need to pass the stone tablet to gain enlightenment.

  And the so-called "Tao Realm" is also in that stone tablet.

  As long as you enter your spiritual consciousness into it, you can start practicing in the "Tao Realm".

  Wei Yi walked a little closer and looked at the stone tablet carefully, still feeling a little uneasy and nervous.

  If he cannot get the recognition of this stone tablet, then he may have to spend time practicing martial arts in the "Tao Realm".

  Then I don't know whether I can pass it or leave here within a year.

  Wei Yi suddenly had a thought in his heart, maybe it was two completely different life destinies.

  But before Wei Yi could reach the stone tablet, the stone tablet suddenly glowed with golden light and even shook slightly.

  The entire hall was suddenly filled with rays of light and shrouded in golden light.

  Wei Yi was a little surprised, but then he felt that Wenquxing seemed to appear behind him. The golden light shone on him, and the sounds of countless students reciting echoed in his ears.

  Rumble...

  the ground shook, and a door appeared behind the main hall. Outside the door was the steps leading to the second palace above.

  ? ? ?

  Wei Yi's face was full of surprise, and he secretly thought that he had passed the assessment directly?

  He walked around the stone monument to the door, looked at the steps going up, and couldn't help but smile.

  It seems that I really passed the assessment directly.

  It was so easy.

  Wei Yi couldn't help but have some expectations in his heart.

  Maybe I am the person this Human Emperor Palace is waiting for.

  Of course, Wei Yi has such thoughts, not because of narcissism, or how confident he is in his own character and character.

  After all, no one is perfect, and sages also have selfish motives. He thinks that he is just an ordinary person.

  The reason why he thought so was entirely because he had just felt the power brought by Wen Quxing.

  After all, he is a Confucian and Taoist saint, and he has brought a new way of cultivation to this world.

  Not to mention how many disasters he has prevented and how many lives he has saved in the past few years.

  Simply allowing those literati to practice Confucianism and Taoism brought better ways of governing the world to those emperors and allowed more people to live and work in peace and contentment.

  It also allowed cultivators to switch to Confucianism and stabilized the world of cultivation that was in turmoil due to the exhaustion of spiritual energy.

  Taken together, these things are truly a blessing.

  He is now respected and admired by everyone, preaching to countless people and educating many people.

  Therefore, it is not impossible to be admitted to this palace under special circumstances.

  After all, in terms of great achievements and profound influence on future generations, I am afraid that no one in this world can match it.

  Wei Yi went up the steps and finally came to the door of the second palace above, just as recorded in the jade slips.

  There are four characters written on the palace plaque: "The best is like water."

  Wei Yi didn't hesitate this time and pushed the door open directly.

  There is a rockery that is more than two people high in this palace. There is a waterfall falling on the rockery. There are fish swimming in the pool below, and there are many green grass growing beside the pool.

  The stone wall of the rockery is also engraved with the four characters "The best is like water".

  At this time, an old man with pale hair and beard was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the pool of water, his eyes closed and motionless.

  After Wei Yi observed carefully, he found that the old man was not breathing. He walked closer and took a closer look.

  The old man didn't even have a pulse.

  Wei Yi used ink painting to check the old man and found that he was indeed dead.

  It seems that after sitting here for countless years, his lifespan was finally exhausted, he failed to pass the test of this palace, and he did not leave.

  Alas -

  Wei Yi couldn't help but sigh, wondering which sect this old man came from.

  But the path of spiritual practice is like this. How many people spend their entire lives unable to achieve the great truth.

  Those who come from behind and reach the top of the mountain will inevitably see dead bodies scattered all along the way.

  However, Wei Yi didn't have time to feel sad for others. He squatted by the pool of water and put his hand into the water. The water rippled and the fish inside gathered.

  But at this moment, the same scene happened again.

  The words on the rockery stone wall glowed with golden light, and the goldfish in the water jumped out of the water and turned into small dragons, surrounding Wei Yi.

  Colorful rays of light shone down, the ground shook slightly again, and a gate appeared behind the hall again.

  "It seems that I really have hope!" Wei Yi was delighted.

  Passing the first two palaces so easily made Wei Yi look forward to the next step even more.

  If Na Yun Yizi knew that he passed the first two levels so easily, I don't know what he would think.

  Wei Yi climbed up the stairs and came to the gate of the third palace.

  There are four characters written on the plaque: "Hong Kong Ruogu".

  He pushed the door open and found that the palace was empty except for two old figures.

  The entire hall was empty, with no stone tablets or rockery waterfalls.

  Only the four golden characters "Hong Hua Ruo Gu" were suspended in the center of the hall, shining brightly.

  The moment Wei Yi opened the door and walked in, the two people in the hall also looked at him.

  "Congratulations, little friend, for coming to the third palace!" A long-bearded old man said with a smile.

  The other person also nodded, looked Wei Yi up and down, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's amazing to reach this third palace at such an age!"

  Wei Yi returned the favor with a smile, and did not say how he passed the first two Of a palace.

  Otherwise, these two old guys would probably have their hearts broken.
  "My lord, Wei Yi, it's a pleasure to meet you two seniors!" Wei Yi said politely.

  "I'm Duan Changqing, nice to meet you!" the long-bearded old man said, cupping his fists.

  "I say Chenzi!" said another old man.

  Wei Yi cupped his hands again, and then asked: "How long have you two seniors been in this palace?"

  "I have been here for almost five hundred years. Alas, I wonder if there is any hope of reaching the next palace in this life?" The old man named Duan Changqing sighed.

  "I came here a hundred years ago!"

  "Little friend, you will come to enlightenment with us here in the future, but it's okay. With one more person, we can share our insights, argue with each other, and make progress together. Maybe we can Quickly realize the way of being open-minded!" Duan Changqing said with a smile.

  Dao Chenzi next to him also nodded. After all, it is easy for a person to get into trouble and fall into a dead end when enlightening. As the saying goes, bystanders know better. As each other acts as a mirror, it is easier to help oneself develop ideas.

  Wei Yi smiled and nodded, and said modestly: "Then please take care of me, two seniors!" "

  You're welcome, it's fate that we can meet here!" Duan Changqing said again, looking very friendly.

  He is not being hypocritical. He has indeed been enlightened here for nearly five hundred years, and it is not easy to meet someone to talk to.

  Wei Yi smiled, then walked closer and looked carefully at the four golden characters "Humility Ruogu".

  As a result, those four words suddenly glowed brightly, and ripples formed in the surrounding space.

  Colorful rays of light bloomed behind Wei Yi, and a similar scene emerged again.

  Wei Yi knew that this palace could also be passed directly.

  Seeing the strange phenomena around them, both Duan Changqing and Dao Chenzi were shocked, especially Duan Changqing, who looked at Wei Yi in disbelief.

  He has been here for almost five hundred years and has never seen anything like this.

  However, they all knew that the appearance of this vision just meant that Wei Yi was qualified to leave this palace and enter the next palace.

  "Passed directly?" Duan Changqing said in shock.

  Although when he was in the first house, the opportunity didn't take long to pass.

  But this is the third palace.

  Moreover, less than a quarter of an hour after the other party walked in, he passed directly. This was too fast.

  Sure enough, along with the extraordinary vision, a gate appeared behind the hall.

  Wei Yi bowed his hands to the two stunned old men and walked towards the door immediately.

  The two old men instinctively followed Wei Yi towards the gate.

  But there was no way to get close to the door. He could only see the steps extending upward through the door.

  During this period, Chang Qing and Dao Chenzi had hot eyes and longing on their faces.

  They are even more envious in their hearts. How they wish they could pass through this palace so smoothly.

  But the path of spiritual practice is like this. Some people are talented and can make great strides with each passing day, while some people spend their entire lives struggling to catch up.

  "Two seniors, Wei will take the first step, and I also wish the two seniors can enter the next palace as soon as possible!" Wei Yi walked to the door, turned around, and bowed.

  "It seems that my little friend is the chosen one!" Duan Changqing handed him over, his eyes full of envy.

  "I also wish my little friend success!" Dao Chenzi also said with cupped hands, feeling envious but also vaguely expecting.

  There is even some hope that this Wei Yi will be a miracle.

  It will be a miracle that he successfully obtains the inheritance of the Human Emperor and ascends to the throne of the Human Emperor.

  Although he prefers to be the lucky person, now he also hopes to see Wei Yi succeed.

  This is like a person who believes that humans can create a machine that can fly freely in the air.

  And put in actions and efforts to this end, but failed every time.

  When everyone doubted him, and even he himself began to doubt himself, he suddenly saw someone building an aircraft that could actually fly.

  Then he will also look forward to that person's success in his heart.

  Because the other party can at least prove that his persistence and efforts were right and not a waste of time.

  Wei Yi turned around and climbed up the stairs under the envious eyes of Duan Changqing and Dao Chenzi.

  The door behind him gradually disappeared.

  Soon after, Wei Yi came to the fourth palace, but there was no one inside.

  But just like before, he was directly recognized and successfully arrived at the fifth palace.

  There was also no one in this palace, and Wei Yi passed through it easily, which made him feel as if he was really going to be the chosen one in this human emperor's palace.

  In this way, Wei Yi walked almost all the way to the sixth palace.

  This is where Yun Yizi stopped.

  In fact, there was not much recorded about the sixth palace in the jade slip. After all, Yun Yizi did not pass the sixth palace.

  But for now, the content in the jade slips is not that important to him.

  The sixth palace seems to be a world. Inside is a steep stone mountain with a towering pine tree standing on the mountain.

  The trunk of the tree is straight, just like the name of the palace, with no branches.

  Its original intention is to describe a person's upright character.

  Wei Yi doesn't think he is such an upright person, but his three views are definitely very upright.

  And there must be a lot of upright people in this world.

  But the imperial palace's standards for integrity are definitely not the same as those in the world.

  Otherwise, Yun Yizi would not have failed the "assessment" of this palace.

  In other words, he has his own set of exclusive standards.

  Just like some girls, they set a lot of requirements and conditions when looking for a boyfriend. If they don't meet them, they will never marry.

  Eventually, when you meet someone you fall in love with at first sight, you can skip all the conditions.

  To put it simply, conditions are used to select spare tires, and true love can reach the sky in one step.

  Wei Yi seems to be the latter now. It seems that the "assessment" standards set by each palace can be ignored in front of him.

  Is this the aura of a Confucian and Taoist saint?
  Wei Yi was thinking this, and this palace also opened the door to the next palace for him.

  "It seems that I am really going to be the heir to this human emperor's palace!" Wei Yixin said without any pretense, and immediately walked towards the seventh palace.

  This is a palace that is not recorded in the jade slips. On the plaque of the palace are written the four characters "water drops penetrate the stone", which must be related to the character of perseverance and perseverance.

  This Wei Yi is very confident.

  As the Liver Emperor, he relied on perseverance along the way. Day after day, he turned those daily skills into magical powers.

  In this palace, Wei Yi met another old man.

  But when Wei Yi came in, the old man was meditating with his eyes closed. He was probably practicing and enlightening in the Taoist realm, and he was completely unaware of Wei Yi's arrival.

  Wei Yi did not disturb others, but looked at the dripping water drops and the rock below that was about to be penetrated.

  However, at this moment, a vision also appeared.

  The dripping water stopped, the space vibrated slightly, and the sound of recitation echoed in the void.

  The rays of light shone on Wei Yi, and a door opened behind the hall.

  "One step closer!" Wei Yi smiled, completely accustomed to this result.

  But when Wei Yi was about to walk towards the rear door, the old man who was meditating suddenly opened his eyes.

  His eyes suddenly showed a look of surprise and excitement, and he exclaimed: "Success!"

  As he said that, he stood up excitedly and ran towards the door.

  As a result, he hit a light screen and was bounced back.

  The old man, who was a little dazed by the collision, looked at the door in astonishment. He slowly stood up and reached out to touch it, but was blocked by a light curtain.

  "What's going on?" He was a little confused. The door was obviously open, but why he couldn't enter.

  ...(End of chapter)
