God Descending Tower: Second Floor

Among the many trial participants present, they considered themselves inferior to Lin Xin Tong, but compared to Yi Yun, they only felt slightly weaker. And compared to Shentu Nantian, everyone was rated as a "scholar," and none of them were willing to concede to the others.

Unexpectedly, Shentu Nantian and Yi Yun chose the array plate that they wouldn't dare touch; they've gone mad.

"They'll suffer. Those two array plates are beyond their comprehension; they can't even withstand the pressure of a peerless Great Emperor. Aiming too high will inevitably lead to their downfall."

Some people whispered among themselves, and most of the people present shared this thought: they were waiting to see Shentu Nantian and Yi Yun suffer a setback.

Just then, a dazzling flash of light shot out from the altar, and then, with a rumbling sound, the entire altar sank.

People only felt a flash of light, a sudden spinning of space and time, and when they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a separate space.

Looking around, there was no one else, only myself.

They were isolated from each other.

This isn't surprising when you think about it. Each person entering the first level of the trial is given two array plates, and can only comprehend these two. If they were with many other people, they could easily exchange them, thus rendering the so-called choice meaningless.

At this moment, Yi Yun was also teleported to a separate space, but his situation was different from that of the others.

Above Yi Yun's private space, there was a door leading outside. Yi Yun looked up and saw a staircase outside the door, fluttering like a colorful ribbon, leading to a higher place.

At the end of the stairs, there was a door about the size of a palm, from which a bright white light shone, clearly the entrance to the second level of the God Descending Tower.

The second floor of the God Descending Tower...

Yi Yun narrowed his eyes. The opportunity on the first level of the God Descending Tower was that the trial participants could choose two array plates to study. What would the second level of the God Descending Tower hold?

Having already obtained the "Master" rating, qualifying him to directly enter the second level, Yi Yun certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity.

Only by thoroughly understanding all the resources on each floor can we make overall arrangements.

Yi Yun carefully put away the two array plates and climbed the steps alone. When he reached the top of the steps and looked at the scene outside the second-floor gate, Yi Yun was stunned.

The door on the second floor wasn't large, but beyond that door lay a vast and boundless world.

That vast, flat wasteland, covered with sparse green grass and exposed black rocks, stretched to the very edge of the world.

Above the wilderness, leisurely white clouds drifted by. Because of the great distance, the clouds hung very low, and one could vaguely see unknown wild beasts flying among them.

"Is this the second level of the God Descending Tower?"

Yi Yun was stunned; this seemed like another world altogether.

Yi Yun initially thought it was Illusion Technique, but after activating his Energy Vision, everything around him was undeniably real.

Especially those wild beasts flying in the sky, judging from the energy fluctuations emanating from their bodies, these wild beasts do not seem to be puppets driven by energy crystals at all, but are real flesh and blood bodies.

A living wild beast?

Yi Yun found it hard to believe. No wild beast could survive for so long, having lived since the establishment of the Empress Secret Realm.

Unless... this world is vast enough that wild beasts can thrive and reproduce continuously.

Thinking of this, Yi Yun was extremely astonished. The Ancient Empress had refined such a vast world into the God Descending Tower?

Or perhaps, the second gate of the God Descending Tower is actually a spatial entrance, connecting to such a world?

So where is this world? Is it in the Tianyuan Realm?

Regardless of the method used, Yi Yun found it unbelievable; the Ancient Empress truly possessed the power to reverse the heavens and earth.

Yi Yun leaped down from the second-floor entrance, his body plummeting like a meteor, the wind whistling past his ears.

From afar, Yi Yun saw the wild beasts hidden in the clouds and mist of the mountains and fields. He suddenly realized that the second level of the God Descending Tower might be a trial ground.

Obtain the array plate on the first floor, and then study and cultivate it on the second floor.

The endless wild beasts in the wilderness can all serve as targets for actual combat.

"Such abundant Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi!"

After landing, Yi Yun took a deep breath and felt every pore on his body open up, feeling extremely comfortable.

He looked around. He was currently on a cliff, which was a hundred feet high. Looking down at the bottom of the cliff, he saw that the clouds and Yi Yun were swirling around it. Halfway up the cliff, there was a gap in the rock.

Yi Yun leaped down, using his body to gain momentum in mid-air, like a gliding eagle, and landed lightly on the rock crevice.

Yi Yun sat cross-legged, took out two array plates from the first layer, and placed them flat on his knees.

As energy was infused into it, the scene within the array slowly unfolded...

A vast, Undying Sea— the duel between the Green-robed Swordsman and the Black Armored Warrior...

Yi Yun stared wide-eyed at the two people on the sea surface—two peerless Great Emperor, with equally mysterious identities and equally powerful strength.

Yi Yun didn't know why they were fighting, nor did he know the seemingly hidden history behind it, but he could tell that the fight between the Black Armored Warrior and the Green-robed Swordsman was not a friendly sparring match, but a life-or-death battle!

The Green-robed Swordsman was unrestrained and unconventional, but when he saw the Black Armored Warrior, the murderous intent he unleashed made Yi Yun feel suffocated.

One sword, cleaving heaven and earth!

Yi Yun was shocked. Although he had an extraordinary understanding of swordsmanship, he could not withstand such sword power!

Let alone Yi Yun, even Lin Xin Tong would find it difficult to bear.

If one cannot even look directly at that Sword Light, let alone comprehend the profound meaning from the sword moves.

This was an extremely powerful sword strike, far surpassing Yi Yun's current level.

Yi Yun's heart raced, and he gasped for breath. When that sword struck, he felt as if his chest was about to be cleaved open.

With a thought, Yi Yun took out the broken sword from the Pure Yang Sword Palace from his Space Ring.

Ancient and weathered, the broken sword, covered in rust, seems to have been buried underground for countless years. Holding it in your hand, you might even feel that it is about to break and decay.

Holding the broken sword, a chill instantly spread from the blade to Yi Yun's body.

Yi Yun reactivated the array plate.

This time, for some reason, Yi Yun felt much calmer.

When the Green-robed Swordsman unleashed his earth-shattering sword strike, separating the Undying Sea once more, Yi Yun opened his eyes wide, his pupils contracting, trying hard to discern the mystery of this sword strike.

The Sword Light's edge stung his eyes like needles, yet Yi Yun remained focused, straining to see.

He wanted to see clearly the profound meaning of swordsmanship contained within this strike!
