Chapter 552
The nine-floor Dark Tower within the Demon Jade Space offers treasures bestowed by the Moyu Tower Master for each level cleared.
Lin Yuan’s World Tree, “Void Interpretation,” “Illusory Reality,” Chaos Crystals, and other treasures all originated from the Nine Floors Dark Tower and have been of great help to him.
Even after reaching the Ninth Rank, Lin Yuan would still often reflect and meditate.
Especially for “Void Interpretation,” it offered an explanation of the Space Rules from a perspective different from that of human civilization.
With each reflection, Lin Yuan gained new insights, deepening his understanding of the essence of the Space Rules.
…
Demon Jade Space.
The incarnation of Lin Yuan’s consciousness appeared.
“This space?”
Lin Yuan carefully observed his surroundings; this was his first time here since ascending to the Ninth Rank.
Now that he was in the domain of the Ninth Rank, Lin Yuan immediately noticed the subtle essence of the Demon Jade Space compared to when he was in the Eighth Layer.
“Completely independent of the many spatial layers, how did the Moyu Tower Master achieve this?”
Lin Yuan was somewhat astonished.
It was known to Lin Yuan that the Demon Jade Space did not belong to the Main Universe.
After all, the Moyu Tower Master also was not a life form from the Main Universe, but the space created here did not rely on any spatial layers, which was somewhat inconceivable.
“Let’s see just how far I can go on the third layer now.”
After observing for a while, Lin Yuan headed towards the direction of the Nine Floors Dark Tower.
According to Shen Ji, the third layer of the Dark Tower was specifically designed for certain extremely powerful special Ninth Rank lives, as well as for Tenth Rank lives.
When Lin Yuan was at the Eighth Layer, let alone clearing the third layer, he couldn’t even withstand staying there.
Now that he had stepped into the Ninth Rank, he had no illusions about passing the third layer; he merely wanted to understand what the challenges of the third layer of the Dark Tower were.
The first layer and the second layer, Lin Yuan knew, tested the ability to resist pressure from all directions.
But the third layer… when Lin Yuan was at the Eighth Layer, his Spirit Will, nurtured by the World’s power within an area of over a hundred million miles in his Inner World, was actually not much weaker than that of a Ninth Rank Life.
Yet even so, he still couldn’t withstand a moment on the third layer; Lin Yuan vaguely sensed that perhaps the challenge of the third layer of the Dark Tower was different from the first and second layers.
…
In front of the Nine Floors Dark Tower.
The Stone Statue Shen Ji stepped out.
“You have been gone for quite some time…” The Stone Statue was about to ask Lin Yuan why he hadn’t been here for such a long time.
He then noticed that Lin Yuan’s Spirit Will had undergone a qualitative change compared to the last visit, and the Will incarnation had naturally merged into the multiple Spatial Layers.
What he saw of Lin Yuan now was but a projection.
“You’ve reached the Ninth Rank?”
The Stone Statue Shen Ji’s tone was complex; although he knew well that reaching the Ninth Rank was no challenge for a freak like Lin Yuan.
But when he truly discovered that Lin Yuan had attained such a level in such a short time, he couldn’t help feeling inexplicably emotional.
Why did such a monstrous talent not appear during the era of the Moyu Tower Master!
“The luck was not bad…” Lin Yuan said with a smile.
Always luck… The Stone Statue Shen Ji felt somewhat helpless, and looking at Lin Yuan, he said, “Are you here to try to clear the third layer?”
If Lin Yuan were still at the Eighth Layer, the Stone Statue Shen Ji would not recommend attempting the third layer, as it would be meaningless and wouldn’t even serve as a trial.
But now that he was at the Ninth Rank, Given Lin Yuan’s talent, he could naturally try to clear the third layer.
“Go ahead.”
The Stone Statue Shen Ji stepped aside.
Lin Yuan walked straight into the Black Tower.
…
The third layer.
The moment Lin Yuan’s figure appeared,
An invisible and dreadful pressure swept over from all directions, passing over Lin Yuan.
It was like hitting a void, with all the pressure passing straight through Lin Yuan’s body.
Because Lin Yuan’s True Body was not in the Main Space.
“Hmm?”
Lin Yuan tried taking a step forward.
The pressure from all directions surged, already penetrating dozens of Spatial Layers.
Another step.
It penetrated through hundreds of Spatial Layers.
And then ten steps. Discover hidden content at empire
It came close to penetrating ten thousand Spatial Layers.
At this moment, the intangible essence was sweeping across nearly ten thousand Spatial Layers.
Even though Lin Yuan’s consciousness incarnation was within more than eighty thousand Spatial Layers, he could still faintly feel the pressure.
He continued for a hundred steps.
The immense pressure seemed to become tangible, resonating back and forth through eighty thousand Spatial Layers.
Seeing this scene, Lin Yuan decisively stopped advancing.
“The real test of the third layer of the Dark Tower is not resisting the pressure, for this pressure cannot be resisted at all; even a Tenth Rank power, with just a sliver of Spirit Will present, would only end up with their Will incarnation collapsing if touched or grazed by the pressure from all sides,”
Lin Yuan pondered thoughtfully.
The real test of the third layer of the Dark Tower is the occupation of Spatial Layers.
To occupy as many Spatial Layers as possible to evade the shroud of pressure.
And the so-called ‘occupying’ more Spatial Layers, in Lin Yuan’s interpretation, is the expansion and creation of more layers of Inner World Spatial Layers.
The more levels of Inner World Spatial Layers one can create, the more control one would have over the many Spatial Layers of the Main World.
Now, Lin Yuan’s Inner World had expanded to eighty-seven thousand layers of Spatial Layers, and theoretically, he could instantly ‘occupy’ eighty-seven thousand layers of Spatial Layers in the Main World.
“Where I’m at now is merely one percent of the total length of the third layer.”
“With the pressure here already sweeping across more than eighty thousand layers, to fully traverse the third layer, wouldn’t one need to occupy tens of millions, close to a hundred million Spatial Layers?”
Lin Yuan was inwardly astonished.
To occupy tens of millions or nearly a hundred million layers of Spatial Layers meant another thing, which is to develop tens of millions or nearly a hundred million layers of Spatial Layers within the Inner World.
