Law Tower, Cohen

Inside the Nine Flame Sacred Land, there are various cultivation towers. There are ten Law Towers categorized by the laws: gold, wood, water, fire, earth, lightning, light, space, and time. There are Weapon Towers categorized by telepathic weapons, blades, spears, axes, staves, claws, and so on. There are also teaching towers categorized by the different levels of the students: Domain Level, Law Entry Level, Low-Level Law Perception Level, High-Level Law Perception Level, and Law Recognition Level.

Among the various cultivation towers, the most special ones are the ten Law Towers.

It is said that the Nine Flame Kingdom Lord spent a considerable price to acquire rare treasures capable of increasing the speed of perception for various laws, using secret techniques to enhance them so that students entering the Law Towers would see a slight improvement in their cultivation and perception of the origin laws. Each of these rare treasures is worth at least ten billion Hunyuan Units, with those for space and time being the most expensive, valued at nearly one hundred billion Hunyuan Units.

Of course, these improvements to perception speed are limited and cannot compare to the degree of improvement in Chaos City, where one can see the operation of the universe's laws with the naked eye, but they are still incredibly precious.

Hundreds of billions of Hunyuan Units may not mean much to a High-Level Venerable, but it is enough to reflect the importance the Nine Flame Kingdom Lord places on cultivating geniuses.

For students of the Sacred Land to enter the Law Towers for cultivation and enlightenment, they must possess cultivation duration. This highlights the importance of the Ranking Tournament, as different ranking brackets grant different amounts of cultivation duration in the Law Towers.

Taking Universe Level students as an example, the top ten core students get three months of time each year to cultivate and gain insights in the Law Towers, those ranked tenth to one hundredth get two months, the next one hundred get one month, while the ordinary students at the bottom of the rankings only get one day per year.

After entering the interior of the Sacred Land and learning this information in front of the various buildings, Lin Yuan felt a sense of awe at the Nine Flame Kingdom Lord's grand gesture.

Providing personal guidance before the Warrior Battle was one thing, but spending so much money to build these Law Towers—he truly cares more about cultivating geniuses than the Ganwu Kingdom Lord. The Ganwu Kingdom Lord does it to pay off debts; it is unknown what the Nine Flame Kingdom Lord's reason is. Is it purely out of kindness?

Lin Yuan was very interested in cultivating in the Law Towers. Previously, Fenyu the World Lord said he could join the Universe Level core layer directly, but he did not know which ranking tier his cultivation duration would be calculated by.

After inquiring with Fenyu the World Lord in the Virtual Universe, Lin Yuan learned that his duration treatment was actually the same as the top ten students. Lin Yuan could not help but sigh that his teacher, Marquis Yuankun, truly had a lot of influence.

Lin Yuan arrived at the Law Tower for the Law of Earth Origin, filled with anticipation. He wanted to try whether the effect of the Dark Yellow Strange Stone gifted by his teacher could stack with the treasures in this tower.

Lin Yuan applied to enter the tower for cultivation and received permission a moment later. The heavy doors opened automatically, and Lin Yuan stepped inside.

The interior of the tower has four levels, each with many small cultivation rooms. The Universe Level cultivation rooms are on the second level. Lin Yuan found one at random and entered, preparing to begin his cultivation.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground and began to perceive the Law of Earth Origin. He discovered that the speed was about forty to fifty percent faster than cultivating outside. He did not know if it was because there were too many students cultivating in the tower, but the improvement was not as effective as the strange stone his teacher had given him.

Lin Yuan took out the dark yellow stone again, held it in his palm, and resumed his cultivation and perception. He found that the speed of perception was only slightly faster than using the stone alone; the effects were not simply additive.

"The improvement isn't very significant."

Lin Yuan thought to himself, feeling slightly disappointed. It seemed that cultivating in this Law Tower for the Law of Earth Origin was not wise and was a bit of a waste of his allotted time. Without hesitation, Lin Yuan walked out of the Earth cultivation tower and, after some thought, arrived in front of the Space cultivation tower.

Lin Yuan had only perceived a trace of the Law of Space Origin; if he could cross the threshold of the Law of Space Origin, he would be able to obtain another chance at a lucky draw.

Outside the door of the Space Tower, a youth who was a bit shorter than Lin Yuan and somewhat chubby was standing there, also applying to enter the Space Tower.

The chubby youth saw Lin Yuan walking over and looked at him with suspicion.

"Eh? Who are you? How come I've never seen you before?"

The little fatty asked Lin Yuan.

"Hello, I'm a newcomer. I just joined the Sacred Land today."

Lin Yuan replied, his tone calm. The other party was a Universe Level rank nine, just like him.

"Just joined? Can newcomers enter the Law Tower before participating in the Ranking Tournament? Oh, I get it. You must be the child or disciple of some big shot, right?"

"Hello, my name is Cohen. My ancestor is Marquis Huanyu. I'm ranked fifth among the Universe Level students. It's nice to meet you."

The little fatty introduced himself very politely.

"I am Lin Yuan, a disciple of Marquis Yuankun. Hello."

"You're actually a disciple of Marquis Yuankun?"

The little fatty Cohen grinned, his eyes squinting.

"Then we are truly fated. My ancestor and Marquis Yuankun are close friends. I heard from my ancestor that the two of them knew each other before they became Immortals."

"Oh? That is indeed quite a coincidence."

Lin Yuan echoed.

The two began to chat in front of the Space Tower.

"Yo, not bad, brother. You're a Giant Axe Warrior too."

The little fatty noticed the Giant Axe badge on Lin Yuan's chest and said, his tone completely informal.

"I even wanted to participate in the 'Universe One-Star Mercenary' assessment. If I passed, I could get a 'Blood Wave Planet' badge to wear on my chest—how imposing that would be! But my ancestor told me there was no need and to just focus on cultivating in the Sacred Land. It's such a pity."

"Let me tell you, among these Universe Level students..."

The little fatty Cohen seemed to have opened a floodgate and talked endlessly. Lin Yuan stood by, answering occasionally and offering a polite smile.

Lin Yuan felt a bit helpless. This little fatty was not only quick to get familiar, but he was also a chatterbox.

"The weapon you use is a giant axe? I really envy you; using a giant axe is so domineering! The telepathic weapon I use is the 'Blood Edge God Weapon', and so far, I've only mastered the second level. Cultivating it is just so difficult..."

The little fatty rambled on.

After a long time, Cohen finally seemed satisfied and was about to stop.

"Oh my, we've been talking for so long. You and I are truly fated, brother. Let me treat you to a drink another day. I managed to get a bottle of 'Ye Hua Wine'; the taste is beyond description."

"I should go cultivate now. I'm heading in."

After saying that, he went into the Space Tower to cultivate on his own.

Lin Yuan felt exhausted. He suspected this was the day he had spoken the most since he transmigrated.

Lin Yuan also applied to enter the Space Tower and entered after the little fatty.

The internal structure of the Space Tower was basically the same as the Law of Earth Origin cultivation tower, but it was smaller. That made sense; there were certainly fewer students who could perceive the laws of space and time.

Lin Yuan entered a cultivation room, sat cross-legged, and focused his consciousness on the Golden Leaf within the System Space, beginning to perceive the Law of Space Origin.

Lin Yuan planned to cultivate here for seven days first, then rush to attend the public lecture by the Immortal mentor Moke, and find an opportunity after class to ask Master Moke about axe-related secret techniques. Of course, he would also have to listen carefully to this lecture on the Law of Fire Origin.
