C626 Training and Crisis
Outside of the mountain stood a ten thousand feet tall Spirit Tower. Waves of incomparably vigorous Mental Energy rippled out from within, causing the mountain under Chu Kuangsheng's feet to feel as if it was placed in an ocean. It seemed to be shaking intensely.
Chu Kuangsheng's eyes were burning. Ever since the Spirit Tower appeared, his gaze had never left the Spirit Tower.
In the past, no matter what, his understanding of the Spirit Tower only remained in the rumors. Now, he was finally able to witness the true Spirit Tower.
"It is indeed worthy of being the painstaking work of dozens of tier 6 alchemists." Chu Kuangsheng exclaimed in astonishment.
Even with his experience in his previous life, he would be amazed by such a miraculous and marvelous Spirit Tower.
"Take out the golden cauldron from the Pill Association and you will be able to enter the Spirit Tower." The Great Elder said.
Hearing this, Chu Kuangsheng stretched out his hand and took out the pill furnace. In an instant, as if it was being pulled by some kind of force, rays of light shot out from it and enveloped his body.
"Enter the pagoda. If you are interested, you can go to the top floor of the Spirit Tower and take a look. Perhaps you can find your own opportunity." The First Elder's eyes swept over the Spirit Tower as he slowly said.
Top floor?
Chu Kuangsheng curiously turned his head around, his eyes revealing a questioning look.
Seeing this, the Great Elder said, "This Spirit Tower is divided into three levels, the upper, middle, and lower levels. And it is said that in the third level... Hidden countless great opportunities. Unfortunately, our Pill Fire Palace has been searching for it for nearly a hundred years. In the end, we didn't find anything."
After saying that, he turned his head to Chu Kuangsheng and said with a smile, "I am only suggesting it. If you are not interested, you can just stay in the second or the first level and cultivate."
Chu Kuangsheng's expression fluctuated. He did not say anything as he leaped and rushed towards the Spirit Tower.
Hua!
The instant his body touched the Spirit Tower, a wave like ripple appeared on the surface of the Spirit Tower. He was like a carp that was like water as he swiftly disappeared without a trace.
"Great Elder, do you really think that this fellow can find some kind of lucky chance at the top of the Spirit Tower?" The air fluctuated as an old man walked out from within.
Judging from his appearance, he was the Third Elder of Pill Fire Palace, Dan Wentian.
The Great Elder smiled and said, "I'm just trying. Perhaps, what can that little guy learn from something that my Pill Fire Palace can't crack?"
Dan Wentian shook his head, his expression showing that he didn't agree with the Great Elder. Regarding those opportunities that were hidden at the top of the Spirit Tower, their Pill Fire Palace had been searching for them for so many years, but they still had no clue about them. No matter how talented a junior was, what could he find from them?
The Great Elder glanced at Dan Wentian and said, "I understand what you mean. It's better to try than not trying. Perhaps there are some opportunities and some things that require these energetic juniors to try. Only then can we find things that we can't find. "
Dan Wentian said with a smile, "I also hope that's the case. If that fellow is really able to find some clues about the great fortune, it might be a good thing for our Pill Fire Palace."
The Great Elder nodded. His eyes flashed and his expression gradually became serious, "Is there any movement from Black Dragon Continent?"
"The palace master of Black Dragon Hall, the Third Venerable has already appeared above the Pill Fire Continent." Dan Wentian said in a deep voice.
The Great Elder's face darkened, and a cold light flickered in his eyes, "It seems like these guys haven't learned their lesson yet, and they want to have a fight with us in Pill Fire Palace."
"Hehe!"
Dan Wentian smiled coldly, and his voice was filled with killing intent.
"Since the others want to cause trouble, we, the Pill Fire Palace, will come and have a chat with them."
............
Within the Spirit Tower.
This place was like a dream world. Sometimes it was as beautiful as a rainbow, sometimes it was as deep as the starry sky, and sometimes it was as silent as the deep sea.
Chu Kuangsheng emerged from a corner of the pagoda. He raised his head and looked at the wondrous world in front of him, and his eyes couldn't help but reveal a surprised expression.2
The Spiritual Energy in this place was no longer limited to being vigorous. It seemed to have a mind of its own, and it could seep into people's hearts and make them feel unprecedentedly wonderful.
"Is this the Spirit Tower?"
Chu Kuangsheng's gaze swept across his surroundings. Finally, it landed on a sparkling and translucent staircase.
"This should be the passageway to the second level of the Spirit Tower." He muttered to himself as he lifted his foot and walked towards the staircase.
Not long after, Chu Kuangsheng followed the staircase all the way up and entered the second level of the Spirit Tower.
"The quality of the Mental Energy here is clearly stronger than the first level." He closed his eyes and sensed the Mental Energy around him. A joyful expression appeared on his face as he said.
"Let's go to the third level and take a look!"
Chu Kuangsheng looked happy and lifted his foot to walk to the stairs leading to the third floor.
However, just as he was about to enter, he was surprised to find an invisible barrier blocking in front of him.
"Do I need Peak Rank-4 spiritual energy?" Chu Kuangsheng reached out to touch the barrier and said with a helpless expression.
He did not intend to force his way in because he knew very well that if there was any restriction on a Spirit Tower formed by dozens of tier 6 alchemists, he would not be able to break it with his current strength.
"Looks like I can only stay here and break through!" Chu Kuangsheng retreated and walked to the center of the second floor and sat down cross-legged.
He formed a seal with his hands, and a suction force surged out from between his eyebrows, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy into the Lower Heaven Palace.
As time passed, Chu Kuangsheng could clearly sense that... The psychic power in the lower heaven palace was increasing at an unprecedented speed. At this rate, it wouldn't take long for his mental energy cultivation base to reach the Round Heaven Stage Rank Nine.
At that time, he would have the ability to break through to the peak of the Fourth Stage.
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Chu Kuangsheng began to abandon all distracting thoughts and enter a completely ethereal state of cultivation.
...
In the outside world.
Half a month's time quietly passed. During this period of time, all the experts who had stayed in Pill Fire City could clearly feel that an oppressive aura was quietly spreading across the entire Pill Fire City.
It was like the calm before a storm.
"Looks like the Pill Fire Palace has already sensed something." Some of the experts with sharp minds spoke in this manner.
They were very clear in their hearts that there was only one Black Dragon Continent in the hundreds of continents that could cause Pill Fire Palace to react in such a manner.
Therefore, in the following period of time, more and more forces were withdrawing from the Pill Fire Palace, in order to avoid getting involved in this heaven-shaking battle.
This kind of retreat intensified the tense atmosphere in the Pill Fire City to a certain extent, causing everyone to start worrying about their own safety. They were hesitating whether they should leave the Pill Fire City or not.
While countless people were feeling uneasy, patrols of the Pill Fire Palace began to appear in the sky above the Pill Fire City, causing the tense atmosphere to gradually rise to its peak.
