Tie Daniu analyzed the situation for Ye Tianze and came to a conclusion.
"This is a dead end!"
Tie Daniu said, "The moment you make a move, you'll get yourself into trouble. The Divine Rune Palace clearly wants to cripple Liu Mengchan after the marriage proposal. Although this will damage the Divine Rune Palace's reputation, it's still better than marrying their Saintess to the son of the Chaos Lord."
"Of course I know it's a dead end, but I need a way to break out of it." Ye Tianze said.
Tie Daniu felt helpless against Ye Tianze's stubbornness, but after thinking for a while, he suddenly had an idea, "I do have a way."
"What way?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Become the Divine Rune Palace's Saintess!"
Tie Daniu said, "The Saintess of the Divine Rune Palace is very rare, but the Saintess is even rarer. However, the prerequisite is that you must pass the fifty-eighth floor of the Divine Rune Palace to become the Saintess."
"The Saintess can be sold? Is the Saintess so precious that they can't be sold? "Ye Tianze asked curiously.
"The Saintess is only the successor of the Divine Rune Palace, she may not necessarily become the Palace Lord."
Tie Daniu said, "But the Saintess is different. Ever since the Divine Rune Palace was established in the Chaotic Lands, there has never been a Saintess. However, when the Divine Rune Palace's founder established the Divine Rune Palace, there was a prophecy that when someone passes the Rune Tower for the first time and reaches the fifty-eighth floor, he will become the Saintess of the Divine Rune Palace. The Saintess will lead the Divine Rune Palace to rise in the Chaotic Lands!"
At this point, Tie Daniu looked at Ye Tianze and said, "Once you pass the fifty-eighth floor of the Formation Tower, the prophecy will be fulfilled. Not only will the Divine Rune Palace not sell you, they will have to protect you with all their might. After all, if they sell the Saintess, they will at most be criticized by others, but if they go against the Ancestor's prophecy, they will end up dead."
"No one has passed the fifty-eighth floor?" Ye Tianze asked.
"No, this requirement isn't too harsh. There are many cultivators who have tried to accumulate their cultivation base and pass the 58th level, but they all failed in the end. The highest number of people who passed was only the 41st level."
Tie Daniu said, "So, it's not that easy to be a Saint. I advise you to …"
Ye Tianze roughly understood what he meant. Without waiting for him to finish, he directly interrupted, "Let's go. We'll go challenge the Formation Tower now!"
Tie Daniu was speechless, but he did not dare to persuade Ye Tianze.
He thought about it and felt that this was also an opportunity. It was better than directly rushing out during the blessing ceremony and saying that he was the dao companion of the Saintess and that all of them should scram.
If that was really the case, then there was really no turning back.
If Ye Tianze did not succeed, then he would have tried his best. Perhaps he would understand that there were some things that he could not change with his current strength.
A short while later, Ye Tianze arrived at the Formation Tower. Usually, this place would be crowded with cultivators, but now that the Divine Rune Hall was preparing for the Saintess Blessing Ceremony, most of the people who came and went were from the Bedlam Lands' forces and cultivators.
The Formation Tower seemed a little deserted, but it was not that there were no cultivators challenging the Formation Tower. In addition, there were also some foreign cultivators who came to visit the Formation Tower.
This Formation Tower was built by the Divine Rune Hall's founder. Every Formation Rune Master who just entered the Divine Rune Hall had a free chance to challenge the Formation Tower.
Every time they passed a level, they would be rewarded with contribution points. However, if they failed, they would lose the free chance.
If they wanted to challenge the Formation Tower again, they would have to pay contribution points. However, the amount of contribution points paid was not much. After all, the Formation Tower did not only bring contribution points, but also the benefits of the Formation Rune Dao.
Ye Tianze changed his appearance and came to the front of the tower. He gave his identity token to the Deacon. The Deacon glanced at it and was a little surprised.
The name Bai Ye had risen to fame some time ago, but it had disappeared during this period of time.
"This is your first time challenging the Formation Tower. You don't have to pay contribution points. Do what you can." The Deacon reminded him and opened the door of the Formation Tower.
The Formation Tower could not only be challenged by one person. It could support hundreds of cultivators at the same time.
Normally, they would have to queue, but now, they did not need to.
After Ye Tianze entered the Formation Tower, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed. It was a space like the Treasure Vault.
"Heaven Rune Master Bai Ye, you have two choices. The first is to directly pass the first 50 levels and receive the contribution points from the 50th level. The second is to start from the first level and pass the 58th level to become the Divine Rune Hall's Holy Son!"
A cold voice sounded. It was the Formation Tower's Spirit.
Ye Tianze was stunned for a moment before he directly chose the second one. The reason why he had directly skimmed past the fiftieth floor and obtained the benefits was because with his cultivation base as a Heaven Rank Array Inscription Master, the previous floors were clearly not difficult for him.
If he did not need to help Liu Mengchan, the first choice was naturally the best. Although he did not know how many contribution points he would receive from passing the 50th level, he would definitely be able to accumulate enough to become an elder. He only needed a few hundred thousand contribution points to become an elder.
After choosing the second choice, the Tower Spirit's voice sounded, "Inscribe a low-level rune and you can pass the first level!"
Ye Tianze raised his hand and inscribed a low-level rune. The Tower Spirit's voice followed, "Inscribe ten low-level runes and you can pass the second level!"
Ye Tianze's face changed slightly. Although this was a low-level rune, it was difficult to imagine how many runes he would have to inscribe later on.
But he still did as he was told and inscribed ten runes in a moment.
Sure enough, when he reached the third level, there were a hundred runes. Although this was not a problem for Ye Tianze, he also knew that as the runes were stacked on top of each other, by the time he reached the tenth level or even higher, it would be an astronomical number.
If that was the case, who would have so much Origin Power and time to inscribe so many runes?
When Ye Tianze inscribed a hundred runes, the fourth level immediately became a thousand runes, which was also a tenfold increase.
Ye Tianze still had a very easy time inscribing these thousand runes, but when he reached the fifth level, there were ten thousand runes.
Ye Tianze's Origin Power was abundant, so he did not care. Very quickly, he inscribed ten thousand low-level beginner runes.
On the sixth level, there were a hundred thousand runes. On the seventh level, there were a million runes. On the eighth level, there were ten million runes. On the ninth level, there were a hundred million runes.
And on the tenth level, there were a billion runes!
Ye Tianze did some calculations. To inscribe a million beginner runes, he would need a full day. To inscribe ten million runes, he would need ten days. To inscribe a hundred million runes, he would need a hundred days. To inscribe a billion runes, he would need a thousand days. It would take him close to three years.
By the time he passed the tenth level, forget about the Saintess Blessing Ceremony, it would be too late.
After inscribing on the fifth level, Ye Tianze suddenly stopped and said, "Will the rest be stacked like this?"
The Pagoda Spirit did not speak.
Ye Tianze thought about it and changed his words. He asked, "Is there a time limit?"
"There is no time limit."
The Pagoda Spirit said, "Unless you are unwilling to inscribe or die in the Formation Rune Pagoda, you can inscribe inside forever."
If he had the time, why would he challenge the Formation Rune Pagoda? At this moment, he was regretting it. If he had known, he would have asked for the contribution points reward for the fiftieth level and thought of other ways.
"No, if this continues, even a Mysterious Heaven Realm or an Almighty would not have enough Origin Power to pass the first ten levels in one go!"
Ye Tianze recalled what Tie Daniu had told him. The highest record was only the forty-first level. The rest of the cultivators had only passed the fifty-eighth level intermittently.
There was no one who had passed the fifty-eighth level consecutively and became a Saint.
However, Ye Tianze knew that his Origin Power was not inferior to an ordinary Almighty's. But if this continued, it would be impossible for him to pass the tenth level.
"But how did the guy who passed the forty-first level do it?" Ye Tianze was puzzled.
Because someone had passed the fiftieth level consecutively. If this continued, not to mention an Almighty, even someone who had surpassed an Almighty would not have enough Origin Power to inscribe so many runes.
Moreover, if this continued, Ye Tianze could not imagine how much Origin Power he would need in the end.
