Chapter 1765: Chapter 1804: The Tower Master Enters Sagehood

The greatest advantage of the young Great Venerates is their immense potential; they can cultivate to the Heavenly Human Five Declines in a short time, demonstrating extraordinary strength.

In great battles, they can often achieve significant merits and secure higher rankings.

However, their fatal flaw is a lack of experience; they have not accumulated enough merit. If the merit gained from great battles is insufficient, they will fail to Entering Sage.

The candidate Seer Leng Yue is most optimistic about is Silver Moon Venerate, after all, he belongs to the Moon Palace, so it is naturally more reassuring for him to take charge of it.

Unfortunately, Silver Moon Venerate was a step behind.

Silver Moon Venerate said unwillingly, "Palace Master, I still have hope."

"Perhaps the remaining eight steles will place me fourth; as long as I gain one more layer of merit, entering sage will be certain."

Seer Leng Yue just smiled bitterly at his words.

Even the fifth nomination was barely secured, mostly because of some protection from the Heavenly Guardian Ancient Saint from the Heavenly State.

Trying to achieve fourth is easier said than done.

The other nominated sages also obtained one layer of merit.

The temple behind Ancient Zen Buddha Venerable became more magnificent.

A clear shadow appeared on Thunder Annihilation Sage’s second Merit Divine Stele, but it was still one layer short.

Most notably, when the merit descended on Jiuyou Demon Monarch, it transformed into golden blood and integrated into his body.

The already immensely powerful Two Calamities Realm became even more astonishing, faintly able to rival Ancient Zen Buddha Venerable.

Seeing this, Jiang Fan finally felt relieved.

Because for those who have not reached the Heavenly Human Five Declines, acquiring merit is futile as they cannot bear it.

As it turns out, for those who don’t need merit, the stele flexibly converts it into something needed for the current realm.

Meanwhile.

Three huge golden feathers successively overlapped on Jiangshan First-class Building Owner.

The Divine Ring at the back of his head absorbed a massive amount of merit and became extremely brilliant.

Like a sun, its rays shone so brightly that no one could look directly at it.

Several sages looked moved and approached.

Seer Leng Yue lamented, "Hundreds of years, and finally a new friend among us."

The Great Venerates present were full of envy.

Nothing was more complex than watching a peer Entering Sage right before their eyes.

There was both envy and endless regret.

Jiang Fan was filled with excitement; indeed, Jiangshan First-class Building Owner was reaching this step!

Then they saw his radiant Divine Ring melt into golden water and poured behind him, forming a monumental stele.

As long as the stele solidifies, it signifies successful Entrance into Sage.

He would then become the leader guiding the living souls of Central Earth.

However, just as the stele was halfway formed, the remaining golden water was insufficient.

The half-real, half-imaginary stele began to slowly disintegrate.

Seer Leng Yue’s expression slightly changed: "Failed?"

"How could he, an older Heavenly Human Five Declines, not have accumulated a shred of merit?"

The other sages also showed surprise.

With their dispersal, three layers of merit feathers, plus decades of accumulation, Entering Sage should have been no problem.

Jiang Fan’s expression changed; he knew where the problem lay.

Although Jiangshan First-class Building is a force, it is a place for business.

The owner, disciples, and clients interacted for profit; where is the faith, and where is the merit?

Jiangshan First-class Building Owner sighed slightly, as if he had anticipated this, and said, "This is destiny."

Jiang Fan looked on with compassion; the building owner had given so much, yet ultimately stopped short of Sage.

Suddenly, he remembered something.

Glancing at the yet-to-disintegrate divine stele, he moved his mind into the Space Mirror.

He grasped at the Little Qilin’s round belly from afar.

The Merit Divine Pearl it swallowed was extracted out.

Compared to its original grape size, after several merits accumulated, it had grown to the size of an egg.

Anyway, his merit would later be carried by the Little Qilin.

He might as well borrow it for now.

Without a second thought, Jiang Fan hurriedly tossed it into the divine stele before it disintegrated.

The Merit Divine Pearl encountered the divine stele and immediately melted into golden water, which poured onto it.

The divine stele, on the verge of disintegration, instantly solidified again.

With the additional golden water, it continued to solidify.

When less than ten drops of golden water remained, finally, the divine stele fully transitioned from a phantom state to a tangible stele!

The Merit Divine Stele was cast!

Writings appeared on it.

"Here lies Nameless Venerate, who entered the fray in person, led three Giant Emperors to the Lower Realm, assisted in the Great Wine Sacrifice, injured one and killed another, and saved the falling state at the last moment, safeguarding living beings, acquiring infinite merit, and thus awarded a Merit Divine Stele, with the title of Nameless Sage, cultivating Central Earth, with achievements eternal."

Subsequently, the Merit Divine Stele merged into the body of Jiangshan First-class Building.

His body immediately underwent a dramatic transformation.

His Divinity Transformation Realm body metamorphosed into an imperishable body of the Virtuous, and the power of the Divinity Transformation Realm transformed in quality to the Power of the Sage, capable of tearing the world’s barriers barehanded.

An aura that made all living beings tremble and worship slowly emanated from his body like a flowing stream.

The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner slowly opened his eyes, a moist sheen flashing in them.

His voice quivered lightly, "I’ve finally reached this step."

In this moment, the oppressive mood suppressed in his heart for countless years was finally released.

He could no longer maintain his usual calm composure.

Jiang Fan smiled and said, "Congratulations to Nameless Sage!"

The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner wiped away tears and embraced Jiang Fan.

He did not say any words of gratitude because his gratitude was beyond words.

"Young Emperor Mountain congratulates Nameless Friend on proving the Virtuous Realm!"

"Medicine God Hall congratulates Nameless Friend on successful attainment!"

"Moon Palace congratulates Nameless Friend on merit entry to Sage!"

"Buddha Country congratulates the addition of another sage to Central Earth!"

"Divine Weapon State congratulates Taicang State’s Nameless Sage!"

"Demon Continent congratulates the Human Clan with another Virtuous Realm!"

The six sages all congratulated in unison.

Yet their eyes all astonishingly fell upon Jiang Fan.

They initially thought Jiangshan First-class Building Owner had failed in entering Sage, but didn’t expect two surprises.

One surprise was that Jiang Fan actually had a Merit Divine Pearl!

The other surprise was that he was willing to give it to Jiangshan First-class Building Owner.

This was a Merit Divine Pearl, requiring decades or even a century of accumulation or seizing a chance in chaotic times to obtain.

And Jiang Fan, without reservation, gave it away to help Jiangshan First-class Building Owner enter Sage.

A few sages’ lips moved, intending to ask Jiang Fan if he had extra Merit Divine Pearls.

However, at this moment, the merit steles of the nine Ancient Saints trembled again.

The fourth place was about to be revealed.

"Fourth on the Demon Race Ancient Saint Merit List, Xingyuan Venerable."

"Fourth on the Buddhist Path Ancient Saint Merit List, Xingyuan Venerable."

"Fourth on the Confucianism Ancient Saint Merit List, Xingyuan Venerable."

"Fourth on the Yunhuang Ancient Saint Merit List, Xingyuan Venerable"

"Fourth on the Immortal Ancient Saint Merit List, Reincarnation Mountain Master."

"Fourth on the Heavenly Guardian Ancient Saint Merit List, Xingyuan Venerable."

...

The fourth place was set.
