章 1765: 1967
**Chapter 1967: The Minimum Standard is High-Stage God Sovereign**
In the mountains, Lin Moyu felt a stronger suppression than outside.
The omnipresent mist became shackles, and even though his physical strength was sufficient, he couldn't fly in the forest.
Lin Moyu pushed his speed to the limit, almost sprinting along the green jade path.
Every time he reached a fork, he made a choice without hesitation, always choosing the leftmost path.
Time and again, for 400 times, he did the same.
The results once again verified Lin Moyu's hypothesis: for the first 400 choices, no matter what he chose, it was correct.
It was his luck that determined the final result; the choice itself was not important, but luck was.
After 400 choices, in addition to luck, some other judgment was needed.
After 400 choices, if he chose incorrectly, the mysterious force would suppress his luck until it was exhausted, leading to a dead end.
Lin Moyu knew very well what he needed to do. After the 400th choice, he had to find the correct path by distinguishing between right and wrong.
The Cloud Mist Sect would not choose a successor based solely on luck; they also valued analytical and judgmental abilities.
Of course, luck was still very important.
If one's luck was bad, they wouldn't even get past the first 400 choices, let alone the later ones.
In just one hour, Lin Moyu stood at the 401st fork. In front of him were four different paths.
The four green jade paths looked identical, except for some differences in the grass beside them. Other than that, there were no distinguishing features.
Lin Moyu had noticed the grass before; each path had differences, but they didn't form a pattern. He didn't think the choice was based on the changes in the grass.
"What is the new test added by the Cloud Mist Sect?"
Lin Moyu fell into deep thought, trying to think from the perspective of the Cloud Mist Sect.
A powerful sect that valued luck would have certain requirements for its disciples during inheritance.
Luck was one aspect, but what about the other aspects?
"Character, comprehension, analytical ability, responsibility?"
"All seem possible. Some things can't be tested, like character, which is hard to see without encountering significant events."
"So the most likely aspect is comprehension, which is closely related to intelligence, sensitivity, and talent."
"If it's a test of comprehension, how should it be comprehended?"
Lin Moyu looked at the dense mist tens of meters away. The mist was not static but slowly rolling, like clouds in the sky.
Clouds rise and fall, unpredictable.
Lin Moyu thought of the name "Cloud Mist Sect," and a gleam of understanding flashed in his eyes, "Cloud Mist Sect, the name might not refer to clouds and mist but to luck."
"Luck is like clouds and mist, hard to grasp, with ups and downs."
"The same person has different luck at different times, sometimes extremely lucky, sometimes very unlucky."
"So, the essence of the Cloud Mist Sect is luck. What about these four paths?"
Lin Moyu looked at the four green jade paths and the mist above them.
He watched the constantly changing mist, and gradually, a confident smile appeared on his lips.
"I understand now!"
The mist was always changing, representing that the four green jade paths were also constantly changing.
No path was entirely correct; right or wrong depended on the changes in the mist when stepping onto the path.
At any given moment, one of the four paths would have more mist above it, while the other three would have relatively less.
The path with more mist at that moment was the correct one.
Based on his judgment, Lin Moyu chose the path with more mist and quickly moved forward.
He swiftly covered the 20 meters of the green jade path and 20 steps, reaching the end.
No mysterious force descended, and as he reached the end, the mist cleared, revealing four new paths.
Lin Moyu observed the changes in the mist and found the correct path.
"This time, it's the second from the left."
He silently noted and quickly moved forward.
The mist was constantly changing. At this moment, the second path from the left had denser mist, but it might not be the same after a while.
So even if he chose the correct path, there could still be unexpected changes before reaching the end.
Moreover, the mist's changing speed was uncertain; it could be fast or slow.
It was possible that halfway through, the mist's density would change, turning the correct path into the wrong one, and the mysterious force would descend directly.
This aspect relied entirely on luck. Lin Moyu could only minimize his time on the green jade path.
In the end, the Cloud Mist Sect never abandoned the test of luck; they just changed its form.
Sometimes, the mist on the four green jade paths was very similar, with differences of less than one percent.
Ordinary people would find it hard to sense this one percent difference, but it was not difficult for Lin Moyu.
With his soul's sensitivity, he could detect even a thousandth of a difference.
The subsequent journey became smoother, and Lin Moyu moved more confidently.
Once he grasped the rules, it was no longer difficult for him.
After another 100 choices, Lin Moyu stopped at a fork.
He faced the 501st choice, with 100 more forks to go.
The situation changed again. There were still four green jade paths, and the mist still varied in density, but Lin Moyu felt something different.
He sensed an inexplicable force on the green jade paths, like an unknown power.
"Is the real test starting in the last 100 choices?"
Lin Moyu murmured to himself, not acting immediately.
He needed to observe carefully before moving. This test didn't require speed, so there was no need to rush.
"The first 400 choices rely solely on luck. From the 401st to the 500th choice, understanding the changes in the mist ensures smooth progress."
"Starting from the 501st choice, besides luck and comprehension, what else is being tested?"
"The changes on the green jade paths seem familiar, like I've seen them somewhere before."
Lin Moyu pondered, and distant memories resurfaced, bringing a sense of familiarity.
"The small world, the Divine Selection Secret Realm, the power of divinity!"
Lin Moyu suddenly felt that the green jade paths before him were similar to the paths in the Divine Selection Secret Realm of the small world. The Divine Selection Secret Realm targeted the spiritual world, which, from his current perspective, actually targeted the soul.
The green jade paths before him should also include a test of the soul.
"First luck, then comprehension, and now a test of the soul."
"In ancient times, the tests of major sects were not explicitly stated; they required personal comprehension."
"The tests were not easy, requiring luck, talent, and strength."
Lin Moyu fully understood that the final green jade paths tested not only luck and comprehension but also the soul.
"I wonder what the soul requirement is. Is my soul up to the standard?"
Taking a deep breath, Lin Moyu chose the correct path and stepped onto it.
Boom!
A powerful force struck his soul world.
His soul world trembled violently, causing Lin Moyu to pause momentarily before returning to normal.
Lin Moyu quickly crossed the green jade path, reaching the end before the mist changed.
Four new green jade paths appeared before him, and Lin Moyu stood still.
"The soul impact is equivalent to a high-stage God Sovereign, still within bearable range."
"It seems the Cloud Mist Sect's minimum standard for selecting a successor is a high-stage God Sovereign."
