(Second Update)
"So strong!"
Outside the Battle Tower, Chen Zong was shocked. The opponent on the fourth floor was too strong, and he was no match for him at all. That kind of strength was not only reflected in strength, but also in killing techniques. It was as if he was an expert who had experienced countless battles.
In short, with his current strength, even if he activated the Sword World, he would not be able to pass through. He felt that the opponent was even stronger than the West Staff that had activated the Dao Pattern.
Chen Zong did not know if he could pass through. After all, the opponent's cultivation was the same as his. The higher his cultivation, the higher his opponent's cultivation.
However, under the same cultivation, the other aspects were constantly improving, making the overall strength stronger.
To put it bluntly, it was fighting above one's cultivation level.
Every additional floor meant that the opponent would be stronger.
"Even if I cultivate the Clear Wind Technique to the Greater Success Stage, I'm still not his opponent. If I cultivate it to the Perfection Stage, I wonder if I can defeat him?" Chen Zong thought to himself as he left. This time, he was heading to the Thousand Fantasy Building.
The Thousand Fantasy Building was different from the Battle Tower. The Battle Tower tested one's strength through direct combat, while the Thousand Fantasy Building tested one's Divine Will.
The Thousand Fantasy Building seemed to stand between the real and the illusory. It was very strange. If one looked at it a few more times, they would have a feeling that it was difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.
Stepping into the first floor of the Thousand Fantasy Building, Chen Zong immediately felt a tyrannical force coming from all directions. It was invisible, colorless, and formless. It was silent and difficult to sense.
In just an instant, with his extremely sharp senses, he seemed to feel that there was an invisible force silently spreading out. It ignored all obstacles and directly entered his Spirit Sea.
In an instant, Chen Zong felt that everything around him was changing.
Illusion!
The secret of the Thousand Fantasy Building was to create illusions. In order to resist illusions, one had to rely on one's own Divine Will. Of course, some treasures could resist illusions, but in the Thousand Fantasy Building, one could only rely on one's Divine Will.
This level of illusion was unable to affect Chen Zong. After experiencing it for a while, Chen Zong broke through it and entered the second floor.
The second floor was also an illusion, but it was much more advanced than the first floor. However, it was still unable to affect Chen Zong. He broke through it and entered the third floor.
The intensity of the illusions on the third floor had increased significantly, and it was enough to affect Chen Zong. However, it was only an effect. Chen Zong continued to observe the illusions, and in the end, he managed to break through them with his powerful Divine Will.
"It feels even easier than challenging the Battle Pagoda." Chen Zong couldn't help but muse, "Let's try the fourth level."
In theory, the Thousand Fantasy Building, the Thousand Fantasy Building, and the Thousand Slaughter Sea..................................................
Maybe they could pass the third floor of the Battle Tower, but that didn't mean they could pass the third floor of the Thousand Illusions Tower. For example, Xi Zhang was very strong. He had passed the third floor of the Battle Tower a long time ago, but he hadn't passed the third floor of the Thousand Illusions Tower.
Divine Will was not absolutely related to one's strength. A person with a strong Divine Will might not be very strong. On the other hand, a person with a weak Divine Will might not be weak.
The strength of one's Divine Will was not only related to one's spiritual soul, but also to one's training.
Chen Zong's experience was very rich. He had been as weak as a speck of dust. He had experienced many hardships and grew up continuously. The training of his Spiritual Will was very shocking. Coupled with the month of training in Mount Wuwang, it had improved even further.
The fourth floor of the Thousand Fantasy Building.
The illusion's strength increased again, and the level of increase was even more shocking. The gap was greater than the gap between the second floor and the third floor.
The fourth floor's illusion was naturally a real threat to Chen Zong.
However, it was only a threat. It could not completely trap Chen Zong and make him fail.
Time passed slowly.
"Break!"
A low roar that sounded like thunder instantly exploded. In the next breath, there seemed to be an invisible force that was filled with astonishing power erupting from between Chen Zong's eyebrows. It rushed in all directions, and the illusion immediately collapsed and disintegrated.
"I've passed the fourth floor." Chen Zong was secretly overjoyed, but he also knew that the reason why his Divine Will was so strong was closely related to his past experiences.
"Then, what about the fifth floor?" Chen Zong thought to himself. However, he did not rush in recklessly. Instead, he recovered his Divine Will first.
From the first floor to the fourth floor, he had used up more than ninety percent of his Divine Will. It was impossible for him to pass the fifth floor.
When his Divine Will was fully recovered, Chen Zong stepped into the fifth floor. As soon as he entered the fifth floor, Chen Zong immediately fell into the illusion.
"This is an illusion. I have to block it." Chen Zong used his Divine Will to defend himself. He reminded himself not to be fooled.
However, the illusion on the fifth floor was too strong. Chen Zong's Divine Will was consumed rapidly. In the end, he fell into the illusion.
Once he fell into the illusion, it would be judged as a failure if he could not break free from it after a while.
"In terms of Divine Will, I'm more outstanding." Chen Zong appeared outside the Thousand Illusions House and said to himself. Divine Will was one of the aspects that he excelled in.
It was a pity that Divine Will was mainly used to strengthen one's will and resist external disturbances and illusions. It could not directly increase one's strength.
No, the universe was so vast. There might be some methods related to Divine Will. He could ask Senior Lin Ming to teach him in the future.
Of the three trial grounds, there was only one left: the Ten Thousand Kills Sea!
The nature of the Ten Thousand Kills Sea was similar to the Battle Tower. However, there was a big difference. The Battle Tower was a one-on-one battle, while the Ten Thousand Kills Sea was a one-on-one battle.
On the first floor of the Ten Thousand Kills Sea, ten figures appeared and immediately attacked. Chen Zong drew his sword to meet them.
As soon as they started fighting, Chen Zong realized that the ten people on the first floor of the Ten Thousand Kills Sea were not as strong as the armored men on the first floor of the Battle Tower. However, when the ten of them worked together, their attacks came from all directions. They were dense and continuous, making one feel overwhelmed.
The Battle Tower was a one-on-one battle, while the Ten Thousand Kills Sea was a one-on-one battle. It was the embodiment of one's ability to fight in groups.
The threat of the ten people working together was not inferior to that of the first floor of the Battle Tower. However, it was not the same. The nature of the two was different.
After getting used to it, Chen Zong quickly defeated the ten people, passed the first floor, and entered the second floor. The opponents on the second floor increased to fifty people, and each of them had increased in strength.
It was more difficult!
Fight!
Fierce battle!
Chen Zong also used these fifty opponents to sharpen his swordsmanship, constantly improving his control and application of swordsmanship.
After defeating them and entering the third floor, the number of opponents increased to one hundred.
The fierce battle was endless. Chen Zong was under great pressure, almost suffocating. This level of difficulty seemed to be even higher than the third floor of the Battle Tower.
Of course, there was a difference between the two. The strength of the third floor of the Battle Tower might not be able to deal with the siege of the third floor of the Ten Thousand Kills Sea.
However, the strength of the third floor of the Battle Tower might not be able to match the strength of the third floor of the Battle Tower.
It was just like how some people were good at strength and some people were good at speed.
Chen Zong exerted his strength to the limit, and also exerted his swordsmanship to the extreme. Under the five wills of the heart, his swordsmanship was improving at every moment. It was amazing.
Even if this improvement was difficult to detect bit by bit, it would accumulate like water droplets accumulating. Eventually, it would become a puddle, then a pond, and finally a qualitative change.
After passing the third floor, Chen Zong recovered his strength and tried to challenge the fourth floor.
The number of opponents on the fourth floor increased again. There were now two hundred of them, and their individual strength was stronger than on the third floor. Although they were not as strong as Chen Zong, with two hundred people working together, it was extremely terrifying.
Fight!
Fierce battle!
But in the end, Chen Zong was defeated after killing fifty opponents. The pressure was too great, and the threat was too great.
"The third floor of the Battle Tower, the third floor of the Ten Thousand Kills Sea, and the fourth floor of the Thousand Illusions House." Chen Zong was secretly excited. "I can finally enter the Secret Pavilion to choose a supreme secret technique."
There were three supreme secret techniques, namely the Nine-Fold Melee, the Nine Mysterious Protection Technique, and the Nine Void Escape Technique. They represented attack, defense, and speed.
Without hesitation, Chen Zong made his choice. He chose the Nine-Fold Melee.
Although all of them were important, Chen Zong's preference was to focus on attack and destroy everything.
"What a pity. If only I could choose all of them," Chen Zong said to himself.
However, unless one had made a great contribution, one would only be qualified to choose the second Supreme Secret Technique after passing through the fifth level of the Three Great Trial Grounds. As for the third Supreme Secret Technique, one would have to pass through the seventh level of the Three Great Trial Grounds.
It was impossible to pass through so many levels and challenge the seventh floor. So far, no one in the Nine Heavens Imperial Court had been able to do so, not even the monstrous Origin Clan members.
As for passing through the fifth floor, there were some, but very few.
After obtaining the supreme secret technique, the Nine-Fold Melee, Chen Zong left the Secret Pavilion. However, he did not immediately return to the Heart Sword Peak. Instead, he went to the Tao Alliance to look for Senior Lin Ming. He wanted to return the previous sword techniques and borrow the other sword techniques to study.
"About the Divine Decree?" Lin Ming immediately pondered. After about ten breaths, he said, "I remember that there should be techniques related to the Divine Decree in the Sutra Depository. You can go look for them."
"Thank you, Senior." Chen Zong immediately took his leave and went to the Sutra Depository. After returning the sword techniques, he chose the other sword techniques and began to look for them.
He searched through the second and third floors, but unfortunately, he did not find them.
"What a pity," Chen Zong muttered to himself. He left the Tao Alliance with the sword techniques and returned to the Heart Sword Peak.
Cultivate!
Continue to cultivate!
The feeling of being able to cultivate continuously and improve oneself continuously was too wonderful. Chen Zong was addicted to it. It was really a supreme pleasure.
Chen Zong cultivated the Annihilation Force of the Nine Heavens Breath Gale while comprehending the sword techniques and the supreme secret technique, the Nine-Fold Melee, which he had just obtained. He progressed side by side without wasting any time.
Suddenly, Jiao Yi sent a message saying that Lin Ming from the Tao Alliance had come. Although Chen Zong was surprised, he immediately went to welcome him.
"Chen Zong, the Divine Guidance Technique is on the fourth floor. I have applied to the Palace Lord, and he has made an exception for you." Lin Ming took out a jade book of inheritance and handed it to Chen Zong. It recorded a technique called the Divine Guidance Technique.
