Chapter 3611 Six Desires

No proper introduction was given regarding the rules of this world or how to pass the test.

However, those people had already given Zen a clear hint.

If he ate all the food, he would certainly die. His death would mean he'd surely be kicked out of the game.

This round of the game would test his self-discipline and willpower.

Although Zen's tremendous amount of experience had made his soul powerful beyond measure, it did not affect his decisiveness and willpower whatsoever.

Besides, when one's willpower had increased to a certain extent, it would be difficult for it to advance further.

Normally, Zen would've dealt with similar situations by utilizing the Emotion Closing Godly Way. Now that he had lost all his abilities and theurgies, it would be impossible for him to use it.

A familiar scent wafted through his nose and made him swallow. It was wine. With a newfound determination, he turned around and left.

In the wilderness, he was still alone.

His body was exhausted from being pushed to its limit—a constant reminder of his hunger and thirst. It was so bad that he felt his throat was dry and burning with each exhale.

This worsened once he saw light appear before him again.

Beneath it was laid a bevy of delicious food. What would've normally been pure pleasure turned into pure torture at that moment.

The light illuminated a mouthwatering and tempting array of food and wine, which suppressed Zen's waning restraint.

He thought to himself a few times that this wasn't just merely a test but an act of torture as well!

Eight hours passed...

Ten hours passed...

Twenty hours passed...

This mortal body he possessed, although strong, could only take so much. If it reached its limit, then he would die too.

'If I push this body too much, then I'll never be able to pass the test, '

he thought to himself as he walked onwards like a living corpse.

When he was lost in his thoughts, everything before him faded into black as his eyes fell shut and his body fell to the ground with a thud.

It took a while before he gradually regained his consciousness.

He immediately and quickly took a look at his surroundings as he came out of his slumber.

He should've been back at the temple if he failed.

To his surprise, he wasn't in the wilderness nor the temple. Now he sat on a throne within the walls of a golden palace, his body covered in an imperial robe. At the bottom of the steps leading to the throne stood the civil and military ministers.

"I'm not eliminated. Have I passed the first test?" he asked as he still sat on the thr

ile others were more affectionate.

"A test of...sexual desire?" Zen raised his eyebrows.

The third test was considerably easier for Zen. Although he was a mortal now, he had already experienced love. The gorgeous women surrounding him were unsuccessful in tempting him any further.

While they possessed the most pleasant and seductive voices and smelled of the most enticing perfumes, Zen was able to restrain himself. Slowly but surely, he passed the third test.

The fourth test passed...

The fifth test passed...

Finally, the sixth test passed...

Originally, Zen was lagging behind the other two competitors, in last place to pass the tests. But now that both women were stuck in the test of same desire, he was miraculously in the first place.

"Now that I've passed the tests of six desires, does this mean that I've passed the entire test?"

If this was what the starry illusion would always be like, then it should be a piece of cake for Zen. After all, he only had difficulty in the second test.

But Zen remained in this world of illusions. He remained among the stars.

As if sensing his confusion, the stars began to cover and spin around him once more.

As a result, the spinning began to project spectacular scenes before his very eyes.

The grand desolated land, the sea, the mountains...

As the vision continued, he began to see the entire world before him from a great distance.

What he initially thought he was staring at was the Source World. However, he later confirmed that this was an entirely different world.

Whereas the Source World was shaped like a huge egg with numerous provinces within its shell, the world Zen saw before him at that moment was made up of countless stars.
