Two-in-One: Trouble at the Divine Servant Tower; the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace's Divine Maiden Vows to Clear Seven Floors

" Ning Chuan, I'm all better now, turn around."

A shy voice rang out.

Upon hearing this, Ning Chuan turned around and couldn't help but glance at Qin Ya again.

Perhaps wanting to cover something up, Qin Ya changed into a full-body martial arts uniform.

However, her figure was stunning; the tight-fitting fabric, while blocking the view, also outlined her exaggerated curves, highlighting the feminine charm of a mature woman.

" Ning Chuan, I... what should we do next?"

Qin Ya asked seriously.

However, her shifty gaze, trembling voice, and the blush spreading to her earlobes all revealed that she was feigning composure.

Ning Chuan smiled but didn't expose him, saying, "The spiritual power of the night sky is vast, covering the entire ruins, and it probably won't be exhausted in a short time."

We'll go to the Divine Servant Tower first, which is also the Genius Assessment Tower.

After obtaining the pass certificate, I will search for the Spirit-Awakening Flower while waiting for Elder Nie and Senior Qiu Kai...

As they were talking, Ning Chuan's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Someone's coming!"

He had been continuously using the Heavenly Derivation Art for early warning, his Divine Sense covering a distance of two thousand meters around him.

At that moment, a middle-aged man flew in rapidly and entered his Divine Sense area. Judging from the aura he exuded, he was First-Heaven Divine General.

The destination is very clear.

He went straight to the stone house where he and Qin Ya were.

They must have smelled blood.

Swish!

The middle-aged Divine General flew into the stone house, his eyes falling on Ning Chuan, and he was immediately overjoyed.

But the joy vanished in the next moment.

A look of disbelief mixed with fear surfaced.

The middle-aged Divine General noticed Qin Ya beside him; her breathing was steady, showing no signs of serious injury, and she was coldly staring at him.

"How is that possible?!"

Without a second thought, the middle-aged Divine General activated his Force and tried to escape.

Qin Ya clenched her fist.

Buzz!

Ripples spread across the space from all directions, and streaks of azure wind blades materialized, enveloping the middle-aged Divine General and forcing him to halt his movements.

Ning Chuan glanced at him and said calmly, "Don't rush off. Tell me first, what brings you here?"

The middle-aged man swallowed hard, his voice dry, "It's a misunderstanding, purely a misunderstanding. I was searching for treasure nearby, I didn't expect you two to be here too..."

" Instructor Qin, kill him."

Ning Chuan interrupted him with an indifferent look in his eyes.

"No! No! I'll tell the truth!"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged Divine General panicked.

He was merely First-Heaven Divine General, and the Law he had comprehended were only of the eighth rank, a world of difference compared to Qin Ya's Fourth-Grade Law of the Fourth Heaven.

He quickly said to Ning Chuan, "When the spiritual energy was unleashed, I was quite far away. I saw you Wind Blood Divine General fleeing, and I was even hit by the falling spiritual energy. I felt that you two might both be seriously injured, so I wanted to come over..."

The middle-aged Divine General continue speaking.

Ning Chuan helped him say, "Murder and robbery."

"That's not true!"

The middle-aged Divine General's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly emphasized, "It's just about taking the treasure! Really! I only want your spatial ring!"

Ning Chuan sneered, naturally not believing the other party's explanation.

Spare his and Qin Ya's lives?

Are you worried about retaliation?

Kill him!

Ning Chuan said coldly, his eyes filled with the endless darkness of night, captivating and mesmerizing.

He was never a kind person.

To those who want to kill him, regardless of the reason, his response is always the same.

boom!

Numerous cyan wind blades shot out.

The middle-aged Divine General's eyes changed drastically. He desperately tried to circulate his Force to struggle and resist. Just then, an invisible spiritual force entered his brow, shaking his sea of consciousness.

Dark Night Abyss!

The middle-aged Divine General gritted his teeth and resisted, managing not to fall into the dark space, but he was momentarily disoriented.

Then, it was engulfed by the sharp cyan wind blades.

boom!

The light exploded, and after it dissipated, only a cloud of blood mist remained.

" Wu Guangzhi can withstand it, but other Divine General can't. My mental attacks can already clearly affect ordinary Divine General."

Ning Chuan nodded to himself.

Qin Ya lowered her hand, her delicate brows furrowing slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Similar Divine General will likely come again."

It's alright.

Ning Chuan said calmly, his gaze drifting through the window to the distant torrent of spiritual energy, "The inner city is currently isolated; the Divine General outside cannot enter."

"I remember clearly that the three leaders of the Old Gods Society, along with Elder Nie and Elder Li, all flew towards the entrance."

Of the Fifth-Heaven Divine General who fled towards the inner city, only Wu Guangzhi was among them.

They were also impacted by a torrent of emotions.

Judging from his condition at the time, the damage to his soul was definitely not minor.

Ning Chuan withdrew his gaze and pondered, "If Wu Guangzhi cannot heal his soul, his combat strength will definitely decline significantly. If we can find him, we might be able to eliminate him, or even capture him alive."

Hearing this, Qin Ya gazed at Ning Chuan with her beautiful eyes and tentatively asked, "Shall we go find him?"

"Difficult. Wu Guangzhi's methods of concealment are extraordinary."

Ning Chuan stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "However, we don't need to search for him. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Wu Guangzhi will come looking for me."

Qin Ya vaguely understood and tentatively asked, " The Spirit Forging Meditation Method?"

Ning Chuan nodded and said, "Yes, my matter concerns the method of cultivating spiritual power. Even the Heavenly King was willing to self-destruct in order to kill me, so Wu Guangzhi definitely wants to make a move."

"That's absolutely right!"

Qin Ya seemed to be deep in thought, and said, " Wu Guangzhi's only chance to assassinate you is before the spiritual energy in the night sky runs out."

Once the partition disappears and Elder Nie and Senior Qiu Kai reunite with us, Wu Guangzhi will have no hope left.

"Yes, but just to be on the safe side, we should still do some disguise."

Ning Chuan thought for a moment, then looked at Qin Ya and said, "Before, Wu Guangzhi saw you being seriously injured by that flame while protecting me."

You should then pretend to be seriously injured.

Otherwise, seeing you in perfect condition, Wu Guangzhi might not have dared to make a move.

"Yes, I have studied the relevant methods."

Qin Ya said, then circulated her Force, her pretty face quickly turned pale, and her aura weakened at a visible speed.

"It really does look like it."

Ning Chuan smiled, flipped his hand, and took out two black robes.

He handed a black robe to Qin Ya, saying, "You must act logically. If you're injured, you'll inevitably need to hide your tracks."

Qin Ya put on her black robe, thought for a moment, and said, " Wu Guangzhi escaped before us. I didn't know you also arrived in the inner city. How can we let him find out where you are?"

Ning Chuan pondered for a moment and said, "Make a name for yourself at the Divine Servant Tower."

The current record is clearing seven floors, right? If I break that record, even without revealing my identity, people will still suspect it was me.

"Wouldn't it seem a bit deliberate?"

"There are some, but the impact is minor. Our goal is the Spirit-Awakening Flower. Luring Wu Guangzhi is just a convenient tactic. It doesn't matter if he doesn't come; as long as he's on Martial Star, he can't escape!"

A cold glint flashed in Ning Chuan's eyes.

The words were finished.

He calmed himself, pulled up his large hood, concealing himself entirely in a black robe, and said, "Let's go."

"Good."

The two leaped out of the stone house and sped towards the city.

Not long after.

West side of the inner city.

Swish!

The cool moonlight shone on a castle-like building, its tips shimmering with silver light. Suddenly, two figures in black robes appeared, their toes landing steadily on the top of the castle. A night breeze swept by, causing their wide black robes to billow.

The person showed no abnormalities and had no distinguishing features.

The other woman, however, displayed a voluptuous figure; it was Qin Ya.

"Arrive."

Qin Ya gritted her teeth in anger, using her Force to lift her black robe and cover herself again.

Ning Chuan smiled knowingly and looked ahead at the Divine Servant Tower.

It was an old stone tower with thirteen stories. It was not magnificent, only forty-nine meters high, and not very large. The first floor occupied an area of no more than a thousand square meters.

Ning Chuan didn't find it strange.

Like the Origin Tower at school, it likely contains an inner space, a self-contained little world.

However, as his gaze shifted downwards, Ning Chuan raised an eyebrow.

The area around the Divine Servant Tower was incredibly lively, bustling with activity, and filled with crowds. There were also stalls resembling open-air bars, all of which were packed to capacity.

Most of the people coming and going were young people in their twenties, wearing various uniforms.

Ning Chuan was powerful; the words on his uniform were clearly visible, mostly names of universities in the Federation, with a few being sect names.

"This..."

Ning Chuan was somewhat surprised.

Qin Ya glanced at Ning Chuan, understanding his meaning, and said, "Mainly universities and sects in coastal cities."

Qin Ya explained, " The Divine Servant Tower's ability to assess talent is extremely powerful, and it can accurately reflect a person's current aptitude."

That is, it was only a few months old when it was born, and its reputation was not yet established.

Only a few nearby coastal cities know about it.

After the New Year, as the news gradually spread, universities and sects in the interior would send their younger generation to challenge the tower and test their current talent.

Ning Chuan smiled and said, "No wonder it's so lively."

When a group of young people get together, they're bound to want to compete and see who's better.

"Let's go into the tower."

Two figures leaped down from the castle without making a sound, silently merging into the crowd and heading towards the Divine Servant Tower.

Among the explorers were many who concealed their identities.

Ning Chuan and Qin Ya's black robes were not unusual and did not attract much attention.

"The spiritual energy falling from the sky keeps falling, won't this cause trouble?!"

Among the crowd were students who were feeling uneasy.

The classmate next to him said nonchalantly, "Don't worry at all. Didn't the principal go up into the sky to observe earlier? The spiritual energy is gradually decreasing. It will take at least a week, or at most ten days, for the spiritual energy covering the sky to completely collapse."

Instead of worrying about this, you should be thinking about how to get through to the second level. If you don't get through before the New Year, your scholarship will be gone!

"I'm so poor! If I could be like the World Walker, monopolizing the treasures of the Treasure Domain, why would I worry about scholarships? I'd just give the homeroom teacher maternity leave!"

The street was noisy, with various discussions constantly taking place.

Many people are talking.

The topics mainly involve three aspects: the fallen spiritual power, the Treasure Domain, and Ning Chuan.

"Solely possessing such a treasure? Do you even have the ability? Didn't you hear what those people from the Treasure Domain said? The World Walker' manifested a thousand Divine Weapon, and with a single volley, twelve of the alien race's super geniuses were reduced to ashes!"

"Can't I even have a sweet dream?!"

The student who had threatened to give the homeroom teacher maternity leave muttered.

"Speaking of which, it would be great if God Ning could come and challenge the tower. One of the highest records was set by an alien race; it just doesn't feel right!"

A boy pouted.

"It's probably impossible in the short term. God Ning's trip was fraught with danger, with the Heavenly King launching an attack. He'll definitely have to lie low for now!"

"What a pity!"

"It's alright. The goddess of the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace is about to challenge the tower again. She passed six floors last time, and this time she might be able to break through the seventh floor!"

"In that case, two of our Federation members who passed the seventh level would surpass the alien race!"

"Above the sixth floor, each person only has three chances to attempt the challenge. Shen Yourong failed once last time, so her confidence in coming this time is evident!"

"I'm so excited, I'd better go check it out!"

Many people quickened their pace.

Ning Chuan and Qin Ya walked at their usual pace, unhurriedly towards the Divine Servant Tower.

" Instructor Qin, this girl named Shen Yourong is quite something, having passed the sixth floor."

Ning Chuan raised an eyebrow and transmitted his voice.

Mo Yan was the Heroes Ranking of the previous generation, which is the sixth floor.

Qin Ya thought for a moment and said, "I've heard of her. She's a very powerful girl, possessing the Supreme Physique of the Flower God Physique, and is seen by the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace as their hope for revival!"

Qin Ya then recounted the story to Ning Chuan.

The Ten Thousand Flowers Palace is a sect with a long history, spanning nearly ten thousand years, and it only accepts female disciples.

At its peak, it had several Heavenly King in its ranks.

However, it has long since declined. Its highest combat power is only a Supreme Elder First-Heaven Divine General. Moreover, he is over five hundred years old and his lifespan is approaching. He could die at any time.

"It's an inevitable trend. After the Federation was established, martial arts were opened up, universities flourished, and sects with a single lineage were no longer suitable."

Ning Chuan said casually.

The two walked and talked, and as they talked, the Divine Servant Tower came into view.

The first floor is a regular nonagon, and each side has a portal leading into the tower, which, as Ning Chuan had predicted, is an archway for traversing space.

Each door can accommodate a maximum of five people.

In other words, the Divine Servant Tower can support a maximum of forty-five people taking the exam at the same time.

Those who enter through the same gate are tested in the same space. They can observe each other, but cannot interfere in each other's battles; otherwise, they will be unable to re-enter the Divine Servant Tower.

At this moment, long queues formed in front of every gate.

But the queue won't be too long.

The vast majority of people who enter the tower only visit the first floor.

Ning Chuan and Qin Ya randomly chose a team, and coincidentally, the three people traveling with them all came from the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace mentioned earlier.

A young and beautiful girl with a hot figure; you can't see her toes when you look down.

A beautiful woman, gentle and charming, with a style almost identical to Qin Ya's, though slightly less elegant.

An old woman.

From the surrounding chatter, Ning Chuan learned the identities of the three people.

Shen Yourong, the goddess of the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace.

Yu Wei, the current palace mistress.

The old woman was a protector of the path; her name was never mentioned, and Ning Chuan was unaware of it for the time being.

"Gentlemen, could you please switch places with us? Miss Shen and I are colleagues and wish to see her on the seventh floor."

Suddenly, a handsome young man stepped forward, looked at Ning Chuan and Qin Ya, and said with a smile.

Beside him stood a burly man, his feet not touching the ground, suspended in mid-air, exuding an aura that clearly indicated he was a mid-level second-grade Knight.

"No."

Qin Ya used her Force to change her tone, speaking in a hoarse voice.

The handsome young man's eyes flickered slightly, but he still smiled and said, "Could you do me a favor? My father is the highest-ranking official in the Xisen Administrative Region. As a token of my gratitude, I can transfer one million to you both after we leave the Moon God Ruins."

One million is not a small sum.

What will you do if I refuse again?

Ning Chuan became interested and said jokingly.

He had only heard about the children of officials arguing and abusing their power over women online before, but he had never experienced it firsthand.

The handsome young man frowned slightly and said, "I'll raise the bid again, one million each. More friends, more opportunities. You two can wait for the next round; it won't be long..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

The burly man landed on the ground, grabbed the handsome young man, pulled him behind him, and then bowed apologetically to Ning Chuan and Qin Ya:

"Excuse me, young people, this is your first time visiting the ruins and you may not know the rules."

I apologize to both of you on his behalf. I'm so sorry.

Upon hearing this, the handsome young man's heart skipped a beat.

The burly man wasn't just a guard; he was a powerful Knight whom his father had managed to hire by using connections and paying a hefty sum.

"Excuse me, both of you."

The handsome young man, being very sensible, immediately apologized.

Ning Chuan pursed his lips, somewhat disappointed.

He wanted to see what tactics the other party would use.

After a moment's hesitation, Ning Chuan's hood let out a laugh, "One million per person right off the bat, your family must be very rich. But I remember, the highest-ranking official in the Capital Administrative Region only earns about 500,000 a year. Where did you get your money?"

The handsome young man's expression changed drastically. He was about to say something when the burly man stopped him.

Seeing this, Ning Chuan had no choice but to give up.

Qin Ya nudged him with her elbow, seemingly reproachfully.

Beside him, the three from the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace stared at Ning Chuan, paused for a moment, but also remained silent.

Soon after, the group of five entered the Divine Servant Tower.
