Chapter 48

Zhan Chen stood in front of the tall Cultivation Tower, revealing a look of amazement.

The Cultivation Tower was one of the most magnificent buildings in the Golden Elephant Sect. It was several tens of meters high and had nine floors. Its entire body was made of gold and it stood at the summit of the Ascending Cloud Peak. Above the seventh floor, there were white clouds, and the surrounding was covered with clouds and mist. It was like a fairyland, adding a lot of mysterious color to the tower.

Each floor of the tower was octagonal in shape. Each corner of the tower was carved with rare and precious beasts, sparkling with golden light. It was magnificent.

It was said that the Cultivation Tower contained a total of 108 Cultivation Rooms, which could accommodate 108 disciples to practice at the same time.

Every time a disciple wanted to accumulate their cultivation for a long time, or break through a great realm, they would choose to come here to practice.

Zhan Chen stepped into the first hall. There were no Cultivation Rooms here. Instead, it was for the disciples who wanted to practice in seclusion to go through the procedures to use the Cultivation Rooms.

The hall was large and spacious. There was only one processing window. In the middle sat a Senior Brother, who was on duty, handling the procedures for the Inner Sect Disciples.

Zhan Chen walked over and saw a sign set up on the side. On it was written the introduction of the Cultivation Tower's history and the cost of the Merit Points.

He curiously moved closer to take a look. It turned out that the Cultivation Tower's effect on cultivation was not the same as its cost of Merit Points.

It was divided into three effects. From the second to the fifth floor, there were a total of 54 rooms. It could increase a martial artist's cultivation speed by nearly three levels. Moreover, it could be superimposed with the effect of Dans. It cost 3000 Merit Points per day.

The sixth and seventh floors had a total of 36 rooms. It could increase a martial artist's cultivation speed by nearly five levels. It cost 5000 Merit Points per day.

The eighth and ninth floors had a total of 18 rooms. It could increase a martial artist's cultivation speed by nearly two times. It cost 10000 Merit Points per day.

Zhan Chen touched his backpack. It was filled with dry food and fresh water. There was also the Spirit Heaven Pill that his master had painstakingly refined for him. He could not help but hesitate in his heart as to which effect he should choose to practice.

"3000 Merit Points doesn't seem to cost much, but the effect is not as high as 10,000 Merit Points!" Zhan Chen instantly made up his mind. He came to the front of the counter and said: "Hello, I want the highest floor Cultivation Room."

The guard disciple looked at him and said: "The highest floor Cultivation Room is already full. You need to reserve it."

"What, I need to reserve it?" Zhan Chen exclaimed.

"Brother, this is your first time here, right? There are only 18 Cultivation Rooms on the eighth and ninth floors. Think about it, there are definitely too many monks and not enough gruel. Many people have to queue up beforehand. You can choose the Cultivation Room on the middle floor, the kind that costs 5,000 Merit Points a day. It's just that you have to spend a little more time.

Zhan Chen thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Alright then!" Since they were already here, they couldn't just leave!

"How Chen" Chen asked. "How time".

"Sixty-two days." Zhan Chen wanted to spend all his merit points in one go.

"That's good. Give me your Experience Merit Card."

After the Merit Points were deducted, Zhan Chen obtained a Jade Card. He walked to the seventh floor and arrived at the designated Cultivation Room. He opened the door and walked in.

As soon as he entered, he felt a very fresh Spirit Qi rush towards him. It was much richer than the Soaring Rainbow Peak. Bathing in the Spirit Qi was like soaking in a hot spring. Even if he did not cultivate, he would feel comfortable.

Zhan Chen's heart was filled with joy: "The Cultivation Tower is indeed extraordinary! If I cultivate here, I can quickly complete the process of accumulating Martial Master to Advanced Martial Master. "

So he quickly sat down and swallowed a Spirit Heaven Pill. He quickly entered into a state of cultivation. The surging Spirit Qi was swallowed into his body like a whale. It quickly turned into nourishment and nourished the True Qi in his body.

Zhan Chen made a comparison. Under the joint effect of the Spirit Heaven Pill and the Cultivation Tower, his cultivation speed was nearly three times that of an ordinary Inner Disciple!

However, he was very clear that he was not the only one who was improving. He was not the only one who had all kinds of resources or had many fortuitous encounters. The road of cultivation itself was a process of natural selection, survival of the fittest.

Thinking of this, he worked even harder to move his True Qi, striving to maximize the effect of the Cultivation Tower. Time passed day by day in this kind of intense cultivation … …

On the summit of Ling Jue Peak, the Spirit Qi was pressing. This was the exclusive cultivation place of the top ten Elite Disciples. It was built with luxurious courtyards. The standards were almost the same as the Sect Elders'.

The Sect spared no effort in supporting the Elite Disciples. This was because they were the most likely to become Revered Martial Masters and become a new force to strengthen the Sect.

But in one of the courtyards, the atmosphere was heavy. More than a dozen Martial Masters gathered in the living room of a big house. What a big battle array!

But at this time, they did not dare to make a sound. They all looked at the person sitting at the head of the table – Wang Yin.

The top ten Elite Disciples, to a certain extent, had more say in the Inner Sect than the Sect Elders. They were generally more keen on forming cliques and forming their own large interest groups. Some had a few people, some had as many as a dozen, and some even had more than twenty people. They competed with each other.

And Wang Yin was one of the best. He was good at using interpersonal relationships, using both carrot and stick, so he gathered many followers to work for him.

At this moment, Wang Yin's face was very ugly. He glanced at the people sitting down and said, "Today I have gathered everyone here. I presume you all know what the so-called matter is? That is, Zhan Chen is not dead! "

When saying this, Wang Yin felt a sense of defeat for the first time. It was not that he had never failed in the past, but that was only when he lost to opponents who were much stronger than him.

As for Zhan Chen, he was only a low-level Martial Master. He was a small fry that could be easily picked out by any of his subordinates. Yet, he escaped the trap that he had set and even broke through to the Intermediate Martial Master. This was a great irony!

Wang Yin suddenly felt that his face had lost face. His voice suddenly increased by several decibels, "Wang Jie is an Intermediate Martial Master, Yin Yanyan is an Intermediate Martial Master, and Gao Fa is an Advanced Martial Warrior. But these three people have inexplicably died or disappeared, and Zhan Chen has returned to the Sect alive and well. Can you tell me why?!"

The dozen people in the lower seats were silent. They did not dare to answer his question.

"What's wrong? I usually give you more resources and a better cultivation environment, but in exchange, this is what you get? Which one of you is willing to help me get rid of this Zhan Chen guy? "

The few Martial Masters under him were already eager to give it a try.

At this moment, a discordant laughter came from the side. "Hahaha!"

Everyone angrily looked at him — a young man sitting on the right side of Wang Yin.

He was wearing a loose robe, and his chest was carelessly exposed. He reclined on the seat and kept drinking from the wine glass in front of him, as if he did not care about everyone here.

Someone even stood up, pointed at his nose and asked, "Lin Dong! How dare you be rude to Young Master Wang! "

Wang Yin gave that person a look and scolded, "Hong Bo! How dare you speak to Young Master Lin like this? He is a distinguished guest that I invited. He is not someone that you good-for-nothings can compare to! "

The man called Hong Bo saw Wang Yin's look and was shocked. He hurriedly cupped his hands and apologized to Lin Dong, "I am sorry, Young Master Lin. I was too excited just now and offended you."

However, Lin Dong did not seem to appreciate the gesture as he continued to drink his wine. This caused everyone present, including Wang Yin, to feel a little awkward.

After a long time, Lin Dong turned his head to Wang Yin and said, "Young Master Wang, I finally understand why your plan failed at the last step. It turns out that you sent this kind of person to carry out the task. How can you not fail?"

"You!" Almost everyone present slammed the table, stood up, and stared at him.

But Wang Yin scolded them with a cold face, "What do you all want? Sit down! "

"Young Master, this kid is too much!"

"What? My words don't work? "

Everyone could only suppress their anger and sit down.

At this time, Wang Yin said to Lin Dong with a smile, "Brother Lin, in your opinion, what should we do?"

Lin Dong sat up and said, "Instead of letting them make a mistake, it is better for me to go personally. I only need one capable person!"

Wang Yin smiled and said, "Brother Lin's ability is comparable to mine. If Brother Lin is willing to make a move, it will be a piece of cake. I can rest assured."

Lin Dong also smiled complacently. He felt very comfortable listening to it, so he was a little more polite to Wang Yin, "You flatter me. Brother Wang is one of the top ten elite disciples, naturally, your combat strength is not small. I still have something to do today, so I won't accompany everyone. If Young Master Wang needs my help in the future, just say the word. "After saying that, he actually picked up a pot of wine on the table, drank as he walked, and swaggered away.

When he walked far away, everyone asked in confusion, "Young Master, why do you have to lower yourself and be polite to such an arrogant guy?"

Wang Yin smiled slightly, "Who among you is as capable as Lin Dong?"

Everyone was speechless for a moment. Lin Dong, as a Martial Master Perfection expert, naturally had the qualifications to be proud.

"Humph! You all don't understand. I only need to temporarily be wronged, and I can drive such a strong expert to work for me. Doesn't this show that I am much more brilliant than him? "Wang Yin smiled proudly.

Everyone suddenly came to a realization. They all gave a thumbs up and praised, "Young Master's wisdom is outstanding, and you are flexible. How can Lin Dong compare to you?"
