Mu Chen was very shocked at the moment. He had originally thought he would stop at the ninety-eighth step and obtain a decent Divine Power inheritance, but unexpectedly it turned out like this. The golden energy proactively entered his body. Could it be because he possessed the Divine Dragon Body?
"This kid is defying the heavens, truly defying the heavens! The golden energy is proactively entering his body. Unbelievable. Could this kid be the one those old monsters spoke of?" The white-clothed youth was shocked as he recalled something.
"It's too early to say anything. Let's wait until this kid has obtained everything. It's too early to speak now." The white-clothed youth remarked again.
"Haha, come on, as much as you want. Golden energy, delightful." At this moment, Mu Chen felt that the golden energy not only fused with the Seven-Colored Energy, but a large part of the golden energy transformed into the power of Mu Chen's physical body and realm, both of which were progressing crazily.
In ten minutes, he broke through to the peak of the Middle Stage of Divine Return Realm and his physical body also reached the peak of the Middle Stage of Divine Return. Furthermore, part of the golden energy opened up a golden space, with the Seven-Colored Energy already transformed into golden energy, and the Seven-Colored Energy was no more.
In twenty-nine minutes, Mu Chen obtained most of the golden energy, bringing his realm to the late stage of Divine Return, and his physical body also reached the late stage of Divine Return. Most of the golden energy transformed into his energy. However, at this moment, Mu Chen could not refine any further, as he needed to enter the ninety-ninth golden step.
Upon entering the ninety-ninth golden step, there was no golden energy, only a golden space without any obstacles, seemingly very easy to step into the hundredth golden step.
"Let's give it a try," Mu Chen said, quickly heading towards the hundredth golden step, but even though it was within reach, he couldn't reach it no matter what.
"It's not simple. Could this be an Illusion Realm?" Mu Chen's eyes immediately turned into the Divine Dragon Eyes, scanning everything around to see what was going on.
However, upon a glance, Mu Chen found that there was nothing, not an Illusion Realm, but an endless road. At this moment, Mu Chen realized that he was lost.
"What exactly is this thing?" Mu Chen was puzzled, but he could only continue forward now, venturing deeper, knowing it wasn't an Illusion Realm. He must find a way to leave the ninety-ninth step.
Thus, Mu Chen crazily traversed through half an hour of spatial journey and finally saw an exit, with four pathways at the exit, incredibly weird.
"What's going on?" Mu Chen was puzzled again, having no idea what was happening.
"Congratulations on reaching the final step. Ordinary people wouldn't have your perseverance. You're quite astonishing." At this moment, the white-clothed youth appeared in front of Mu Chen and sincerely remarked.
The youth was truly astonished. Ordinary people, upon seeing such an endless road, would certainly give up midway, but Mu Chen did not, indicating how terrifying Mu Chen's perseverance was.
"What do you mean?"
"The first test of the final step is perseverance. You have no idea how much space you traversed, yet you persevered, so you passed this test."
"Do you mean I've now entered the hundredth step?"
"Yes, the hundredth step is these four pathways. This is also what you asked me before, if there's a possibility to obtain everything here," the white-clothed youth reiterated.
"Are you suggesting I choose a pathway?" Mu Chen asked.
"Correct, the first path is to obtain the strongest inheritance here without any danger. The second path is to obtain everything here, but possibly face death. The third path is to obtain everything here and potentially gain further opportunities, but there's a sixty percent chance of death. The fourth path has a seventy percent chance of death, but you'll receive unexpected surprises. Four paths, you choose for yourself."
"Choosing the first path means no danger but securing opportunities safely, which is not my style. The second path is something I've always desired, to obtain everything. The third and fourth paths aren't as daunting as I imagined," Mu Chen fell into contemplation.
"There's no rush to respond, I'll give you three minutes to consider."
"Which path do you wish for me to choose?" Mu Chen asked.
"It's up to you. I can't help you choose."
"Then I'll choose the second path. I can't even fathom the third and fourth," Mu Chen said seriously.
"Kid, are you sure? If you miss the third and fourth paths, you'll never have this chance again in your life."
"Even if the third and fourth paths could make me the strongest, I won't go. I can't help it; I fear death."
"You kid, congratulations on obtaining everything here." The white-clothed youth said with a smile.
"What do you mean? I haven't walked the second path, nor have I taken the risk."
"Your choice is indeed the best path. By not choosing the third or fourth paths, you show a lack of greed. Congratulations."
"Was this test about that?"
"Yes, had you chosen the third or fourth path, you wouldn't have obtained anything."
"So that's what it was. How do I obtain the inheritance next?"
"It's begun." The white-clothed youth smiled, and instantly, countless Divine Powers crazily rushed into Mu Chen's body, penetrating with no resistance-like.
"This Divine Power actually enhances comprehension, talent, realm, physical body, soul, everything ascending," Mu Chen was astonished, feeling as if his body reached a new level.
Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, ten hours had passed. Mu Chen opened his eyes, feeling as if everything in his body had reached the peak. His body, realm, soul, all reached the peak of Divine Return. As for Divine Power, it perversely broke through five levels of Divine Power, reaching the pinnacle, extremely powerful, or rather monstrous.
"It seems like my talent has ascended. I truly feel what these realms mean, the Divine Return Realm, nearing the Heavenly Dao, comprehending the rules, knowing the world, understanding strength and weakness," Mu Chen spoke in astonishment, very satisfied with this breakthrough.
"Congratulations, it's yours," At this moment, the white-clothed youth said, turning the golden staircase into a pyramid-like object, about the size of two fists, and handed it to Mu Chen.
Mu Chen took it and said, "Is this the golden staircase?"
"Exactly, this golden staircase is a formidable thing, worth a fortune, capable of condensing Divine Power. However, since you devoured all the Divine Power, you'll have to wait for the golden staircase to condense Divine Power itself to continue aiding your cultivation."
"So this thing condenses Divine Power on its own. No wonder I wondered why there was endless Divine Power here."
"Kid, you've surprised me a lot. Perhaps you are the person from legend, and I think it's necessary to tell you some things."
"What things?" Mu Chen asked, puzzled.
"About the Main Space, and the Boundaryless Space. I hope that after I tell you everything next, you will promise me something. Is that okay?"
