System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

"The pressure emanating from this painting is simply too powerful. Based on my understanding of weapon crafting, this should be a genuine Heaven-rank magic weapon."

As Chen Xuanfei approached and slowly landed, he immediately saw a scholar-like young man sitting beside the huge scroll, who looked extremely refined.

Chen Xuan was the last to pass the third test. Seeing that no one else was coming, the young scholar guarding the test smiled and said to everyone present, "This fourth test is called 'Innate Destiny'."

"I will open this landscape painting space in a moment, and you will be sucked in. There are 100,000 paintings of landscapes, flowers, plants, insects and animals inside this scroll, and each painting has its own number."

Seeing the shocked expressions on Chen Xuan and the others' faces, the refined young man smiled again and continued, "You have a quarter of an hour to memorize the contents and numbers of all the pictures as much as possible. When the time is up, the landscape painting will move you out. I will then randomly select three pictures from these 100,000 pictures, and you must accurately tell me the picture numbers. You must answer at least two pictures correctly to pass the fourth test."

"The 100,000 images not only include landscapes, but also insects and animals, and each has a unique serial number?"

"How is this possible?"

"Although most cultivators can remember everything they see, there are limits! This feels like the sky is about to fall!"

"As expected of the Nine Heavens Profound Purity Palace, the first test selects innate talent, the second test selects Dao heart, the third test selects potential, and by the fourth test they don't even bother to hide it anymore, they directly select whether the soul is strong?"

After listening to the refined young scholar's introduction, Chen Xuan immediately understood the hidden information.

Generally speaking, the strength of one's memory is directly linked to the strength of one's soul.

The stronger a person's soul is, the more information it can absorb, and the clearer its memories become.

To cultivate a powerful soul, which can then give rise to divine thoughts and even divine consciousness, one must first possess a physical body with profound foundations. Only with a robust physical body and abundant blood and energy can one continuously nourish the soul as cultivation deepens, thereby strengthening the divine thoughts and ultimately breaking through to become divine consciousness.

Seeing the bitter expressions on everyone's faces, the refined young scholar smiled and said, "If you are not confident, you can rest here for a while, clear your mind, and wait for the second batch of disciples to arrive before entering the landscape painting together."

It would be best if people weren't forced into this situation. Many people dared not be careless at all, since they had already made it to the fourth level. If they failed and were eliminated at this level, it would be a huge loss.

Immediately, the first group of young people who made it to the fourth level sat cross-legged on the ground and closed their eyes to regulate their breathing.

A short while passed.

More and more newcomers who had passed the third level arrived one after another. When they learned the rules of the fourth level, they all sat down cross-legged.

As time slowly passed, the number of young people who made it to the fourth level quickly reached over a hundred.

At this moment, the guardian of the fourth level whispered, "We have enough people. I will activate the landscape map immediately. Do not resist."

As soon as the refined young man spoke, Chen Xuan and his group all opened their eyes and stood up.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Xuan saw that with a gentle wave of the refined young man's hand, the originally two-dimensional landscape painting actually emitted a black and white light and began to slowly rotate. The mountains, waters, insects, and beasts seemed to be given life and actually began to move.

"receive!"

The refined young man waved to Chen Xuan and the others again.

brush--

The hundred people waiting in the square were instantly transported into the landscape painting.

Space-time began to distort, and Chen Xuan felt waves of weightlessness wash over him, but the feeling quickly disappeared.

When Chen Xuan opened his eyes again, he found that he was no longer in the fourth valley, but in a completely new world.

The mountains, water, flowers, grass, insects, and animals here are all incredibly realistic and vivid.

Before Chen Xuan could even begin to appreciate the wonders of ink painting, a series of paintings, each seemingly a real scene, appeared before his eyes, arranged neatly, as if he were in a dream.

Chen Xuan cleared his mind of all distractions, focused his spirit, and his powerful divine sense spread out like a tide, easily memorizing the contents of the scroll and the arrangement of symbols marked at the bottom of the scroll.

You should know that, according to the cultivation level classification in this world, divine sense is an ability that only a Nascent Soul Daoist can awaken.

The earlier one awakens their divine consciousness, the stronger their physical body and the more perfect their soul. Only in this way can they awaken their divine thoughts, which then break through to become divine consciousness.
