First Layer.

Lin Yuan’s figure appeared.
All around was incredibly empty, with only a striking black staircase at the center.
Lin Yuan understood that only by reaching the black staircase would he have passed the first layer of the Dark Tower.
Along the black staircase, one could also enter the second layer.
Hmm.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Yuan took big steps toward the central black staircase.
The next moment, a massive pressure enveloped him from all directions.
Lin Yuan felt his Spirit Will begin to crumble; the intangible and formless pressure almost tore him apart.
“I now have no physical body and not even the power of the soul. To resist this pressure, I can only rely on an understanding of the laws or Cosmic Force.”
Lin Yuan thought to himself and tried to operate the Space Rules to compress the space around him, but regrettably,
his understanding of the Space Rules was limited, and soon the intangible pressure penetrated the space and descended upon him again.
“No wonder Senior Shen Ji said that one must at least master the Complete Space Rules to pass the first layer.”
Lin Yuan thought to himself that only with complete mastery of space, allowing him to freely stretch or shorten the length of space, could any attack from the external world hardly reach him.
…
“It’s too difficult for an Eighth Layer being to surpass the first layer,” the Stone Statue Shen Ji watched Lin Yuan’s scene within the tower, “The Master initially decreed that one could enter here for experience at the peak of the Eighth Layer.”
“But among ten thousand or a million at the peak of the Eighth Layer, perhaps only one might surpass the first layer.”
As Lin Yuan operated the Space Rules, the Stone Statue Shen Ji knew that the other party had not mastered the Complete Space Rules.
Under such circumstances, the chance of passing the first layer of the Dark Tower decreased further.
“Hmm?”
“Cosmic Force? This young one really possesses a type of Cosmic Force.”
The Stone Statue Shen Ji watched with great interest, “This Cosmic Force, where Yin and Yang integrate, is it a higher Cosmic Force? And cultivated to the Third Realm?”
“Interesting, but just these alone will still make it very difficult to pass the first layer.”
The Stone Statue Shen Ji deduced inwardly, but at this moment, his interest had already been piqued; possessing a type of high Cosmic Force cultivated to the Third Realm, Lin Yuan could at least last a very long time on the first layer.
…
Dark Tower’s first layer.
Lin Yuan realized that the Space Rules could not withstand the thick pressure enveloping from all around.
Without hesitating, he activated the Taiji Force.
The Yin-Yang Taiji Power formed a barrier on the surface of his body, blocking all the pressure outside.
“Finally stabilized.”
Lin Yuan breathed a slight sigh of relief internally.
He was indeed afraid that he couldn’t even surpass the first layer.
Though with the Magic Jade Mark, Lin Yuan had unlimited chances to try again,
but if he couldn’t pass the first layer from the start, one can imagine the difficulty of the subsequent layers.
“The trials within the Dark Tower can only rely on oneself, either to master the Complete Space Rules or other foundational rules, or to amass sufficiently powerful Cosmic Force.”
Lin Yuan concluded.
What he didn’t know, however, was that there was a third method, which was to utilize external help.
Some specific treasures—Treasures that could be brought into one’s Spirit Will—were permitted, but the Moyu Tower Master detested the reliance on external help during training, specifically assigning Stone Statue Shen Ji to monitor the process.
Lin Yuan continued walking toward the central black staircase.
As he neared his target, the enveloping pressure grew increasingly oppressive.
Yet, relying on the Taiji Power, Lin Yuan was still barely able to resist.
Until—
Whoo…
The formless pressure almost materialized, starting to form terrifying creatures that charged at Lin Yuan, all ultimately colliding with the Taiji barrier and disintegrating into dust.
“Hmm?”
Lin Yuan frowned.
With each terrifying creature hitting the Taiji barrier, he clearly felt the Taiji barrier shake slightly.
“This won’t do.”
Lin Yuan realized he could not allow those terrifying creatures to touch the Taiji barrier.
“Immeasurable Force…”
“And the Power of Destruction…”
Lin Yuan used several types of higher Cosmic Force in succession, starting to actively hunt down those terrifying creatures formed by the formless pressure.
Boom, boom.
The vast Immeasurable Force spread all around, and the Power of Destruction began to cleanse.
During this period, Lin Yuan intermittently used other Cosmic Forces; occasionally, dozens of ordinary Cosmic Forces were also utilized.
“This is much easier,” Lin Yuan’s face lit up with a smile, the combination of different Cosmic Forces often yielded greater effects.
In the Spirit Realm, Lingxu Immortal King had only comprehended one type of high Power of Creation and six types of ordinary Powers of Creation, but the latter, when combined, were hardly inferior to the high Power of Creation.
Lin Yuan possessed even more ordinary Cosmic Forces, which combined even more perfectly, making his journey toward the central black staircase nearly an overwhelming march.
“Senior Shen Ji said that the faster one passes the first layer, the more generous the rewards.”
Lin Yuan quickened his pace; the surrounding formless pressure grew heavier, and the number of conjured phantom creatures increased, yet under the sweeping coordination of proactive Cosmic Forces, Lin Yuan never even stopped his stride.
Soon.
When he was about a hundred meters away from the central black staircase,
a near-tangible black octopod creature materialized, its terrifying presence overwhelming.
“Hmm?”
Lin Yuan finally halted.
He sensed a faint threat emanating from this black octopod creature.
“Quick battle, quick decision.”
“No need to hold back.”
Lin Yuan didn’t want to waste time on the black octopod creature; he just wanted to quickly surpass the first layer to see what rewards awaited.
So, without hesitation, he went all out.
Boom, boom.
Dozens of Cosmic Forces mixed.
