Chen Chuan raised an eyebrow. That was truly unexpected. But thinking back on the two Fighting Masters he had met so far, they did seem to have certain… special habits. This seemed to corroborate such a claim.
Mr. Zhuan said, "According to the teachings of the Old National Church, this trial is called 'Sealing Dragon Heaven Gate.' It requires a Fighter to make a sacrifice to the Sealing Dragon and break through the Celestial Gate. That sacrifice can be one of your own emotions, attachments, or even hobbies. It all depends on you. This has been proven to be the most feasible path.
"In some records from the old era, the Old National Church also conducted Esoteric Buddhist rituals using large numbers of human sacrifices to help the Upper Layer break through. However, in the eyes of those in the Upper Layer, these lives weren't worth much, so the effect was minimal. Fortunately, this method never became widespread.
