The black tower had 11 floors, each of which was 10 meters tall. Including the top, it was 120 meters tall. It stood above the ground and reached the clouds.
Every day, many people would pass through the streets of Ascending Sky City and come to the observation tower on the city wall to get a closer look at the tower. The observation tower was circular in shape, with a pillar extending out of the city wall. It was 20 meters above the city wall and had a diameter of 100 meters. It could accommodate many people at the same time.
There were many observation towers like this. Each of them was about a thousand meters apart. They were distributed around the entire inner city wall of Ascending Sky City.
"It's so tall."
"It's magnificent with unimaginable exquisiteness."
"It's hard to imagine how much time, resources, and manpower it took to build such a tower."
"Idiot, this tower is a treasure left behind by Emperor Li Tian when he tore open the void and left. It's not built."
On every observation tower, there were all kinds of discussions and exclamations of surprise.
The name of the expert who ascended to the heavens in one step and tore open the void with his bare hands was Emperor Li Tian.
"Soon, the Ascending Sky Tower will be opened. I'm going to try it then. Maybe I can get through a few more floors and exchange for some treasures."
"It's said that you can get the inheritance of Emperor Li Tian if you can reach the last floor. I wonder if it's true."
"It's just a legend. After all, no one has been able to reach the eleventh floor until now. The most they can reach is the ninth floor."
"You're wrong. A hundred years ago, there was someone who reached the tenth floor, although he didn't stay there for long."
"The ninth floor is the record for the past hundred years. This time, many geniuses will try it. Maybe someone can reach the tenth floor."
"What I'm concerned about is whether anyone can break this record."
"Impossible."
"That's too difficult."
Chen Zong carefully looked at the Ascending Sky Tower in the distance. He then looked away and jumped down from the observation tower. He jumped down the city wall and walked into the city.
Since he came to Ascending Sky City, Chen Zong's goal was the Ascending Sky Tower. The Ascending Sky Tower had not opened yet, but Chen Zong could satisfy his curiosity.
After looking around, Chen Zong was about to return to the restaurant to cultivate.
As he walked, Chen Zong suddenly felt that someone was staring at him. The gaze was cold and sharp.
Chen Zong looked back, but he didn't realize that the gaze on him.....
After Chen Zong left, a figure appeared in the corner, one of the Nangong Family's three Pseudo Transcendent Realm masters.
They chased Chen Zong into Ascending Sky City. They couldn't take action inside Ascending Sky City, so they could only keep an eye on Chen Zong and observe his every move. The moment Chen Zong left Ascending Sky City, they could chase after him and kill Chen Zong.
If possible, they actually wanted to let Chen Zong enter the Life or Death Arena. Unfortunately, the rules of Ascending Sky City were very strict. The application for the Life or Death Arena had to be from the same level or from a lower level to a higher level.
For example, a True Martial Realm cultivator could only apply for a Life or Death Battle with a True Martial Realm cultivator or a Pseudo Transcendent, but they couldn't apply for a Life or Death Battle with a True Martial Realm cultivator.
Similarly, a Pseudo Transcendent could only apply for a Life or Death Battle with a Pseudo Transcendent, not a True Martial Realm cultivator.
Returning to the restaurant, Chen Zong got rid of all distracting thoughts and began to cultivate.
The first thing he cultivated was the Change of Heart.
Although his Body Tempering cultivation had not reached the limit, it was very difficult to cultivate on his own without the assistance of resources. His progress was very slow and almost negligible.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
Now that he had reached the limit, he had no idea how to break through to the tenth level of the True Martial Realm. All he needed to do was spend some time every day to consolidate his foundation.
His main focus was on the Change of Heart and the comprehension of his sword techniques. His ultimate move was also gradually taking shape.
Time flew by and in a flash, three days had passed. It was already afternoon.
Sacred Martial Palace's base.
"Ah Zhen, put this on." The man, who looked to be in his thirties, had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a domineering aura about him. He took out a round black jade tablet. The jade tablet had two lifelike dragon carvings on it, and it emitted a unique aura fluctuation. It had an indestructible feeling.
Xiahou Zhen's eyes immediately lit up as he recognized what it was.
"Thank you, Big Brother." Xiahou Zhen smiled and wore the jade token around his neck.
Soon after, Xiahou Zhen and company left the Sacred Martial Palace's base and strode towards the Life or Death Arena. [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↑ Say △ w]

"Let's go. There's a good show to watch today."
"What show?"
"Someone has applied for a Life or Death Battle. It's this evening, when the sun is setting."
"There's actually a Life or Death Battle? Let's go."
"Let's go."
Instantly, many people began heading towards the Life or Death Arena.
There were relatively few people who applied for a Life or Death Battle. Sometimes, there might not even be one in a month or two. However, there were also times when there would be several matches a day.
The last Life or Death Battle had been held nearly a month ago. That was why it attracted so many people.
The Life or Death Arena was circular in shape. It was a thousand meters in diameter and was empty around it. It was specially used for spectators.
Before the Life or Death Battle began, people constantly rushed over. It did not take long for them to gather.
On the Life or Death Arena, people from the City Logistics Division were already present. There was also a squad of City Logistics Division guards stationed below to prevent any accidents from happening.
The sun gradually turned red as it slowly turned into a setting sun. Bit by bit, it sank to the west as the sky gradually darkened.
"Xiahou Zhen is going to engage in a Life or Death Battle. How interesting." Many people from the Myriad Heavens Sect laughed.
In Heaven Ascension City, the Sacred Martial Palace and the Myriad Heavens Sect had their own strongholds. Furthermore, they were not small. After all, they were both superior-grade Sect. There were also quite a number of mid-grade Sect factions. For example, the sword family, the Xin family, also had their own strongholds.
"That Chen Zong actually dared to kill people from our family clan. He sure has the guts of a leopard."
"It's said that Clan Brother Wuxing is already here."
"Clan Brother Wuxing!"
Immediately, the expressions of the Xin family changed drastically as they felt a faint sense of fear.
"To actually get Clan Brother Wuxing to take action, isn't he thinking too highly of that Chen Zong?"
"Fourth Elder's way of doing things is just like that. He doesn't give his enemy any chance to escape, so as to prevent future troubles."
On the other side, Mo Sen stood in the crowd with his saber in hand. His eyes were cold as a cold aura emanated from his body. It was not deliberate, but a result of the cultivation techniques and saber techniques he cultivated in.
Mo Sen had little interest in the Life or Death Battle of others. The reason he came was mainly because he had heard the name Chen Zong.
He was the person who had defeated him in Hundred Battles City's Hundred Battles Arena.
Nearly all the people from the various factions stationed in Heaven Ascension City had come. If it was an ordinary life-and-death battle, it would not have attracted them. The person who initiated the life-and-death battle was a Sacred Palace core disciple, a top genius on the Heaven Ascension roll, Xiahou Zhen.
Therefore, the person who could engage in a life-and-death battle with him was definitely extraordinary. There were also people who had learned through various channels that Xiahou Zhen's opponent had obtained a hundred consecutive victories in Hundred Battles City not long ago.
Hundred Battles City's Hundred Battles Arena was considered pretty good, allowing one to obtain a hundred consecutive victories.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
The victor's combat strength was at least at the five-star level. It would not be lower than the mid-five-star level.
Xuan Ziye and Wang Yunyu were also standing in the Sacred Palace faction.
"He's here."
"That must be Xiahou Zhen. The other one is …"
"Xiahou Ba!"
Xiahou Ba was one of the thirty-six people on the Heaven Ascension roll. His combat strength was at the eight-star level and he was in his forties. Be it his talent or strength, he was astounding.
"Xiahou Zhen is here, but Chen Zong isn't here yet?"
"Don't tell me he's too afraid to come."
Amidst the discussion, Chen Zong walked over in the setting sun's rays. His body had the afterglow of the setting sun.
Immediately, many gazes landed on Chen Zong. There was curiosity, malice, and everything else.
Xiahou Ba's scrutinizing gaze was extremely domineering, as though he wanted to see through Chen Zong.
However, even with so many gazes, it was unable to pressure Chen Zong. After all, they were all gazes below the Transcendence realm.
When he saw Chen Zong, a smile and fighting spirit flashed in Mo Sen's eyes.
"Brother Chen still came after all," said Qing Chen with a smile. The elder behind him smiled as well. He knew what his young master meant. It was not that Chen Zong had not fled, but that he was here to attempt the Heaven Ascension Tower.
As for the life-and-death battle with Xiahou Zhen, there was no need to elaborate.
"Chen Zong, today is the day you die." Xiahou Zhen leaped and landed on the Life and Death Arena like a bolt of lightning in a domineering manner. He looked down at Chen Zong from above.
"It's too early to say that." Chen Zong said with an unhurried smile. With a light tap of the ground, he leaped up and landed on the Life and Death Arena.
"Are the two people on the arena the Sacred Palace's core disciple, Xiahou Zhen, and Reigning Sword, Chen Zong?" The City Garrison's Guard on the Life and Death Arena spoke. His voice was deep and resonant, like the tolling of a bell. It reverberated in every direction, instantly silencing all the discussions.
"Yes," Xiahou Zhen and Chen Zong responded in unison. It was a simple process to verify their identities.
"Stand there and don't move." As the Guard spoke, a mirror appeared in his hand. The mirror was simple and unadorned, with countless mystic runes engraved on its back. The Guard shook the mirror, releasing a white light that first landed on Xiahou Zhen's body before it landed on Chen Zong's body.
A faint white light rose from Chen Zong and Xiahou Zhen's bodies at almost the same time.
"True Force. The two of them are indeed at the True Martial realm. The life-and-death battle is established." As the Guard spoke, he put away the mirror.
The mirror was a Grade 3 pseudo-spirit artifact. It was very special. It could not be used to attack or defend, much less provide any support. Its only use was to detect.
It could detect the level of strength a person possessed. For example, a True Martial realm warrior's True Force or a pseudo-Transcendent realm warrior's pseudo-spiritual energy.
Both parties in the life-and-death battle had to be at the same level. This was to prevent pseudo-Transcendent realm warriors from deliberately concealing their strength when applying for a life-and-death battle and requesting a True Martial realm warrior for a life-and-death battle.
After the test, it was confirmed that Chen Zong and Xiahou Zhen were indeed at the True Martial realm and not at the pseudo-Transcendent realm. The life-and-death battle could naturally proceed.
"Listen carefully. Xiahou Zhen has applied and Chen Zong has agreed. Both parties will engage in a life-and-death battle here." Si Wei solemnly announced, "A life-and-death battle is a matter of life and death. If you want to admit defeat, you need to obtain the other party's consent. No one is allowed to interfere. Otherwise, it will be considered a provocation to Ascending Heaven City. Ascending Heaven City will punish you severely. In addition, all the belongings of the defeated party will belong to the victor."
His voice was solemn, allowing everyone to hear him clearly. No one thought that he was joking. Although Ascending Heaven City was not listed as a ranked force, its strength was not inferior to a high-ranked Sect. Neither the Sacred Palace nor the Ten Thousand Heavens Sect were willing to make an enemy out of Ascending Heaven City.
