Chapter 330: Sweeping Through Everything In His Path

Chapter 330: Sweeping Through Everything In His Path

The interior of the one-star tower of the Seven Towers World was a world where the earth lay barren like a desert, with three suns ablaze in the sky above. Though it was only a simulation, it seemed as bright as day.

Though the space appears endless, the true battleground is confined to a 100-li radius. Wu Yuan had just received an introduction from the tower spirit.

My physical constitution and mana reserves are aligned with the first-stage Golden Core phase (sixth-degree immortal root). Wu Yuan noted the subtle changes to his body. In the voidrealm, this was the maximum power he could mobilize.

With each level conquered, his injuries would be mended and his mana restored, returning him to his peak condition for each ensuing battle.

However, the Seven Towers World is truly interesting. Here, I am granted the full scope of my Domain’s abilities. With a mental command, earthy-yellow qi currents enveloped him seamlessly.

The appearance of his Domain was indistinguishable from the external world. It was simply incredible!

While my personal hall grants me access to greater power, it is only a simulation of increased mana reserves, but fails to replicate the depth of Dao comprehension. Wu Yuan marveled silently. But here, within the Seven Towers World, I can perfectly apply my comprehension of the Dao.

It was a flawless emulation. At least, Wu Yuan was unable to discern any difference between this world and the external world, a feat that surpassed his comprehension.

However, the Redmoon Immortal Realm is probably limited in its ability to simulate advanced stages of Dao comprehension. Hence, the restriction to the first four towers. Wu Yuan realized, connecting the dots.

Those who challenged the higher star towers had all cultivated for far longer and were naturally stronger. Simulating their abilities in a voidrealm was naturally far more challenging.

In the external world, I’m able to wield my lifebound flying swords, which are both powerful and exert little burden on my soul and mana. But here, I cannot use them. Wu Yuan reflected.

This was a major handicap. Wu Yuan’s greatest advantage lay in his powerful Soul Force that far surpassed that of other cultivators who cultivated for the same length of time.

"Choose your weapon," intoned the tower spirit's icy voice, resonating throughout the expansive world.

An array of artifacts with varying aura strengths materialized before Wu Yuan.

Flying swords, shields, armor, cauldrons, gourds, throwing knives, scythes, etc. All kinds of odd and varied artifacts were displayed, numbering as many as a thousand, encompassing every conceivable type of equipment.

I can select any number of artifacts of any grade. However, the premise is that I can actually wield them.

It was a mistake to assume that a higher grade artifact was always the better choice. For first-stage Golden Core cultivators, save for their lifebound artifacts, fourth or fifth-grade artifacts were optimal. Third-grade artifacts were too taxing on their soul and mana.

After some contemplation, Wu Yuan came to a decision. My soul may be strong, but my mana is lacking. High-grade artifacts are not my forte. Therefore, I shall prevail through sheer quantity.

With a swift motion, a multitude of flying swords materialized within Wu Yuan's storage artifact. These had been successfully refined, thus he could summon these swords with a mental command and wield them without impediment.

In addition to the swords, he also chose armor, throwing knives, cauldrons, and various other artifacts.

Soon, he was all set.

One-star tower record? Wu Yuan read through the lines of unobtrusive text that appeared in mid-air.

One-star tower record:

Silvermist Immortal Nation's highest record: Level 81

Redmoon Immortal Continent's highest record: Level 76

Immortal Continent's past 100-million-year record: Level 68

Immortal Continent's past million-year record: Level 67

Immortal Continent's past 10,000-year record: Level 61

Over the countless eons, the highest level completed by the Silvermist Immortal Nation is only level 81? Wu Yuan was shocked.

The Redmoon Immortal Continent was under the jurisdiction of the Silvermist Immortal Nation. A single immortal continent was already incredibly vast, yet an immortal nation consisted of numerous immortal continents, collectively forming an incredibly powerful nation of immortals and countless living beings.

Such an immortal nation developed over countless eons since its inception. Throughout its history, it saw the rise of countless powerhouses. Yet, even the most accomplished among them had reached no further than level 81.

As for the Redmoon Immortal Continent, the highest it had reached was only level 76, and its past 10,000-year record was only level 61.

It's hard to imagine what level 100 is like. From the records alone, Wu Yuan finally realized the difficulty of the one-star tower.

No matter how confident he was, Wu Yuan didn't think he would be the number one genius of the Redmoon Immortal Continent or the Silvermist Immortal Nation since their establishment.

Let's go all out. Wu Yuan's eyes were filled with fighting spirit. The path of a genius?

...

The guardian of level 30 of the one-star tower specialized in the Land Dao, at the sixth-level Domain stage. In comparison, Wu Yuan's Dao comprehension was at the seventh-level Domain stage.

Yet, when the guardian's array formed by nine fourth-grade spirit swords clashed with Wu Yuan's 81 fourth-grade spirit flying swords, the outcome was decided in an instant.

Incredible! Wu Yuan marveled at the abilities of the Seven Towers World. So, the Nine Swords Of Light can be utilized in this manner?

In the past, Wu Yuan had practiced and studied the sword methodology alone, without any guidance. He was basically fumbling around in the dark.

These guardians, though lacking in soul strength, excelled in sword array control.

I am not as skilled as them in manipulating individual Nine Swords Arrays, despite being at the Domain stage as well. Wu Yuan realized.

In essence, Wu Yuan's sword array could not fully embody his Domain-stage Dao comprehension because of his short cultivation history and lack of guidance. Combat revealed one’s strengths and weaknesses.

Comprehend. Wu Yuan focused on identifying his shortcomings while battling the guardians, rather than concentrating solely on defeating them. He constantly analyzed his flaws and put what he learned into practice immediately, understanding that combat was the greatest teacher.

A flurry of thoughts and ideas flooded his mind, leading to rapid improvements in his swordsmanship.

These guardians are invaluable instructors. Wu Yuan was filled with enthusiasm, hungry to learn more. I must seize this opportunity.

After an intense battle spanning thousands of rounds, exhausting all of the guardians' strategies, Wu Yuan finally killed them.

...

Starting from level 30, the speed at which Wu Yuan completed each level slowed.

It wasn't that he didn’t have sufficient strength, but he was enjoying the process of battling the guardians on each level, summarizing the learning points of each battle.

Even so, none of the tower guardians were able to stop Wu Yuan's advance.

On level 39, Wu Yuan faced six sword cultivators at the sixth-level Domain stage. Nine Nine Swords Arrays merged as one, forming the Hundred Swords Array to sweep away his opponents.

Level 39, completed!

Continue to level 40. Wu Yuan's eyes were full of fighting spirit.

He didn't forget the bet between Zhuo Haiyue and Gu Sixing.

...

The moment Wu Yuan unleashed the Hundred Swords Array, everyone in the banquet hall on Southmoon Island found it hard to believe what they were seeing.

Controlling 81 flying swords and merging 81 flying swords into one sword array were two entirely different concepts.

"The Dark Earth Sword Array. The fact that Li Xia is able to form the Hundred Swords Array with so many fourth-grade spirit weapons proves that Li Xia's understanding of the Dao has definitely reached the sixth-level Domain stage or higher, completely capable of completing level 1 to 39 in one shot." someone sighed with admiration.

Clearly, this person was knowledgeable about the Dark Earth Sword Array.

"He is learning and improving with each battle!"

"So strong."

"It's been a long time since we've seen such a sword genius." These Amethyst Cradle Reverends came from influential backgrounds and were highly knowledgeable. Ordinary Amethyst Cradle cultivators could not compare to them.

But at this moment, they were completely won over by Wu Yuan.

Even without relying on Zhuo Haiyue, Wu Yuan also had the qualifications to be granted entry into Southmoon Island. Moreover, he was on par with the relatively stronger cultivators among them.

"Gu Sixing, he’s about to challenge level 40." Zhuo Haiyue glanced at Gu Sixing.

Gu Sixing stared coldly at the projection, not saying a word.

The projection depicted a black-robed cultivator standing in front of Wu Yuan. When the nine flying swords behind him converged, the sky and earth changed color.

"True Intent!"

"The guardian on level 40 of the one-star tower has grasped the Land’s True Intent. It's my first time seeing this."

"Can Li Xia win? Can he pass level 40?" The crowd’s eyes were peeled to the light screen.
