Chapter 100 The Hundredth Star

The will of the stars here is already comparable to the strength of the weakest World Deity, but even the weakest World Deity is still a World Deity. However, their own Dao is generally not very strong.

The standard for evaluating the realm of a World Deity is the Dao tree or the World Divine Crystal in their body, while the standard for judging strength is the degree of comprehension of the Dao.

Dao trees and divine crystals correspond to the Qi Refinement path and the Divine Demon Body Refinement path respectively. The height of the Dao tree and the number of divine crystals also represent the level of a cultivator's realm.

Taking the Dao tree as an example, a normal cultivator who has just become a World Deity generally has a Dao tree only a few hundred *zhang* tall. After some consolidation, it can generally reach a thousand *zhang*. Having a thousand *zhang* in height means that in terms of realm, they can be comparable to a general World Deity. This level is the most common World Deity, and also the most numerous among World Deities.

If the Dao tree reaches ten thousand *zhang* in height, the realm is comparable to a top World Deity. Reaching thirty-six thousand *zhang* means reaching World Deity Perfection.

Of course, this is just a very rough division. In reality, if the comprehension of the Dao is at the same level, then every thousand *zhang* of growth in the Dao tree will result in a clear difference in strength.

Generally, when monstrous Ancestral Gods or Ancestral Immortals are said to be comparable to World Deities, it means they are comparable to World Deities with the most ordinary comprehension of the Dao, and whose Dao tree or divine crystal is within a thousand *zhang* or a thousand crystals.

As for the perception of the Dao, there are also high and low levels. The endless Chaos is shrouded in the origin of the "Dao," but what cultivators can comprehend is only the outermost part. The true mysteries of the "Dao" all lie within the origin of the "Dao."

Every cultivator, when they are World Deities, strives to comprehend the outermost origin of the "Dao." Therefore, no matter which path they cultivate, they can only smoothly cultivate to World Deity Perfection at most.

This also means that during the World Deity stage, they are all cultivating by comprehending the origin. If they want to go further, they must find their own path, creating their own Dao from nothing.

And monstrous Ancestral Gods refer to Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals whose comprehension of the Dao is comparable to or even surpasses the most ordinary World Deities. Once this level of Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals become World Deities, their Dao tree can directly exceed ten thousand *zhang*, comparable to top World Deities.

The test created by Da Mo Daojun is also the same. The first level corresponds to the Ancestral God level, and from the second level onwards, it corresponds to the World Deity stage, and then gradually increases in strength.

Passing the first level already means that the strength is comparable to a World Deity with a thousand *zhang* Dao tree, which is extremely rare.

…

Half an incense stick later, Jiang Xuan finally used the True Phoenix Treasure Technique to kill the phantom in front of him. He also felt the strength of a World Deity here, even if it was just the weakest World Deity.

"There is still strength left, maybe I can try how strong a real World Deity is." Jiang Xuan's eyes were like torches, looking at the deeper stars, those stars had been silent for countless years, and now they were finally about to appear.

"He passed!"

Outside the gate of Da Mo Academy, dozens of figures stood by the lake, looking at the extremely bright light outside the thousand-*zhang* stone tablet, their minds were all shaken.

"Amazing, I have been in Da Mo Academy for tens of millions of years, and my strength is not as good as his." A white-robed Ancestral God sighed. After entering Da Mo Academy, his strength has also increased, but even after tens of millions of years, even if he goes to the test again, he would at most reach the level of eighty-three or four stars.

However, Jiang Xuan has not yet joined Da Mo Academy, and his strength has already reached the level of a hundred stars. This kind of strength is one of the best among the Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals of Da Mo Academy.

"If he becomes a World Deity, he might directly become a top World Deity." A Chaos Immortal said, Jiang Xuan's current strength may not be very strong, but his potential is indeed extraordinary. Being able to be comparable to a World Deity in the Ancestral God and Ancestral Immortal stage, his future as a World Deity is also destined to be extraordinary.

"He hasn't come out yet, is he still preparing to continue challenging?" A World God asked in confusion. The lake surface and the lake water of Star Lake are two completely different spaces, and they were personally arranged by Da Mo Daojun. Not to mention them, even ordinary Dao Lords cannot explore the situation inside.

So they can only speculate.

"Very likely, he passed the hundredth star very quickly, his strength should not have reached the limit yet." A World God speculated. He came the earliest, so he also knew that the time difference between Jiang Xuan passing the ninety-ninth star and the hundredth star was not long.

However, passing the hundredth star means that the test of the Ancestral God and Ancestral Immortal realm is over, so later they will not be able to judge which star Jiang Xuan ultimately reached.

Time passed slowly, and after about three days, a figure finally appeared, stepping on the golden light falling from the stone tablet.

"Is this our newly arrived junior brother?" Some World Deities were surprised, but soon they also showed smiles and greeted him.

"Congratulations, junior brother, for passing the test. From today onwards, you are a disciple of our Da Mo Academy." A Chaos Immortal with an immortal demeanor, white hair and beard, came to Jiang Xuan and said to him with a smile.

"Hahaha, junior brother is amazing, Ancestral God realm comparable to a World Deity, in the future you will definitely be one of the top experts in our Da Mo Academy." A creature more than three *zhang* tall laughed loudly, his body exuding a wild aura, like an ancient god.

"Senior brothers are too kind." Jiang Xuan said with a faint smile, he now only wants to know what kind of treatment he can get.

"May I ask how to address junior brother?" A woman in plain clothes arrived silently in front of Jiang Xuan, her brow marked with a cloud pattern, containing immeasurable power.

"Tai Xuan." Jiang Xuan chuckled, the World Deities in Da Mo Academy all have extremely high comprehension of the Dao, and their realms are at least beyond the top World Deity level, which he cannot compare to now.

Of course, he has not been in the Ancestral God realm for long, and there is still a long way to go in the future. Give him some time, and he will definitely be able to surpass them.

"Hehe, junior brother Tai Xuan, I wonder which star you ultimately challenged to?" Another World Deity opened his mouth with a smile. Three days ago, Jiang Xuan passed the hundredth star, but he did not appear until today. During this period, how many more stars did he pass?

"Defeated at the fifth star of the third level." Jiang Xuan said frankly. He came to Da Mo Academy to show his talent, so there was no need to hide anything.

Moreover, even if he could hide it from these World Deities, it would not make any sense. Da Mo Daojun would know in the end.

And when he said this sentence, everyone was stunned. Unlike those Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals, they were clearer about the difficulty of the tests of each level of stars under Star Lake.

The first level is from the Ancestral God and Ancestral Immortal level to the ordinary World Deity level, while the second level is from the ordinary World Deity level to the top World Deity level. The third to fifth levels are from the top World Deity to the World Deity Perfection, the sixth level is from the World Deity Perfection to the level of creating an ordinary Dao...

Even they can only challenge up to the sixth level at most now. As for the legendary ninth level, it is said that only World Deities who have opened up an extremely powerful Dao can set foot on it.

Da Mo Daojun once said that anyone who can step into the ninth level in the World Deity stage will not be weaker than an ordinary Dao Lord!

And now, Jiang Xuan is only a World Deity, but he has already challenged up to the third level, which means that his strength is already comparable to a top World Deity!

Such a monstrous talent, in their impression, only Da Mo Daojun's direct disciple has ever achieved, and that was only after that person entered Da Mo Academy for a million years!

And Jiang Xuan has not yet truly joined Da Mo Academy!

"Amazing!"

"Truly a monster!"

One World Deity after another could not help but sigh. Although Jiang Xuan's strength is only comparable to the most ordinary top World Deity in terms of Dao comprehension, it is still amazing. Such a monstrous talent is bound to surpass them in the future.

Jiang Xuan's heart was very calm. It should be known that Ji Ning was able to be comparable to a Perfect World Deity at the Ancestral God and Ancestral Immortal level. He had to reach that step as well. There was still a big gap now, so naturally he would not be arrogant.

"And there is also that trouble of Old Man Yuan." Reaching the World Deity level in individual strength is remarkable. He wants to kill Old Man Yuan is also extremely simple, but Old Man Yuan also has a second primordial spirit. No matter which one he kills, even if he kills them instantly, there will be big problems on the other side.

Moreover, his strength has reached the World Deity level, but he is not a World Deity. Jiang Xuan does not possess the many divine abilities of that level, let alone that he is only comparable to the most ordinary top World Deity.

Therefore, the safest way is to learn a sufficiently powerful mind power method to解除 (jiechu - remove, release) Old Man Yuan's mind power control. By then, wouldn't Old Man Yuan be at his mercy?

Just as Jiang Xuan was talking with these World Deities of Da Mo Academy, another figure crossed the void and arrived. The moment they saw him, many World Deities saluted: "Senior Brother Shen Huang!"

The person who came was also a World Deity, but all the other disciples saluted and called him senior brother. This can only mean that this person has a high status and is likely to be Da Mo Daojun's personal disciple.

Within Da Mo Academy, all disciples are considered disciples of Da Mo Daojun, but there are only five who can be counted as personal disciples. All five of these are World Deity Perfection, and they have vaguely opened up their own Dao, and are expected to become Dao Lords, so they can become Da Mo Daojun's personal disciples.

"Mm." World God Shen Huang nodded calmly, then looked at Jiang Xuan, and asked with a smile: "You are junior brother Tai Xuan?"

"Yes, senior brother Shen Huang." Jiang Xuan also saluted.

"Junior brother doesn't need to be so polite." World God Shen Huang's attitude towards Jiang Xuan was very good, and at the same time, he took out a light golden token from his portable treasure, with the words "Da Mo" engraved on it.

Seeing this token, the World Deities beside Jiang Xuan could not help but be shocked, but then they felt that it was only natural. With Jiang Xuan's talent and strength, it would be strange if he did not get this token.

"This is a second-class top-grade disciple token. If you are willing to join my Da Mo Academy, then you will be a first-class disciple of my Da Mo Academy in the future." World God Shen Huang said.

Da Mo Academy disciples are divided into three classes and nine grades. Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals are the third class, which is also the most ordinary disciples, then there is the second class, most World Deities are of this level, and finally there are the first-class disciples, only a very few World Deity Perfection can obtain this.

As for personal disciples, that is another level.

A disciple who has just entered Da Mo Academy can get a second-class top-grade disciple token, which is very incredible. It should be known that even their current senior brother only got a second-class middle-grade token when he first entered the academy.

As for the first class, it has nothing to do with talent, it only looks at strength. Only the strongest World Deity other than the personal disciples can be a first-class disciple.

Jiang Xuan naturally would not refuse, and respectfully accepted the token. This also means that he has truly become a disciple of Da Mo Academy.
