Having just entered the Nine Heavens Tower and before she could even assess the situation, Ji Zining felt a pressure descend upon her body.
This pressure acts not only on the physical body, but also on spiritual energy.
Under pressure, even spiritual energy becomes somewhat stagnant and its flow becomes sluggish.
However, this feeling was only fleeting; after that, the pressure vanished without a trace.
After Ji Zining adjusted to the pressure, her expression became clear.
"So that's what spiritual pressure is."
Spiritual pressure, spiritual pressure, it really is spiritual pressure; even spiritual energy can be affected by pressure.
With the pressure gone, Ji Zining felt streams of incredibly pure Spiritual Qi surging in from all directions.
Under this Spiritual Qi, Ji Zining felt that even without cultivating, her cultivation level was slowly improving.
Upon noticing this, Ji Zining smiled excitedly.
This is only the first level of the Nine Heavens Tower, yet even the first level has this kind of amplification effect.
So, what kind of terrifying amplification would the ninth level offer?
Looking ahead, one can see a plaza on the ground floor of the first level of the Nine Heavens Tower, and above the plaza are numerous cave dwellings.
However, both the square and the cave were filled with people.
Usually, when a cave dwelling becomes vacant, a disciple will immediately go to fill the vacancy.
Seeing this, Ji Zining smiled.
She knew that the Nine Heavens Tower was divided into a plaza and a cave dwelling.
Cultivating in the plaza costs half the contribution points, and similarly, the increase in cultivation speed is also half that in the cave.
Normally, disciples with surplus contribution points will choose to cultivate in their caves.
Shaking her head, Ji Zining didn't delay any longer and hurried up to the next floor.
Just like in the outside world, wherever Ji Zining went, respectful greetings rang out.
At first Ji Zining would respond, but later Ji Zining simply ignored the greetings.
There are only three days left before entering the Heavenly Pride Battlefield, so we can't afford to waste too much time.
Upon entering the second level of the Nine Heavens Tower, a familiar spiritual pressure descended, but just like the first level, it only lasted for a fleeting moment.
A moment later, Ji Zining adapted to the spiritual pressure without any substantial impact.
Compared to the first level, the cultivation speed increases even more in the second level, almost doubling.
But Ji Zining's goal is not the second level.
Continuing onward, Ji Zining soon arrived at the third level.
The spiritual pressure here is dozens of times heavier than in the first level, but it still has no effect on Ji Zining.
Fourth floor... Fifth floor... Sixth floor...
A moment later, Ji Zining went up to the seventh floor of the Nine Heavens Tower.
Feeling the heavy pressure on her physical body and spiritual energy, Ji Zining took several deep breaths before she could barely adapt.
With a thought, he activated the Seven Orifices Exquisite Immortal Art and the Nine-Orifice Exquisite Body to resist the spiritual pressure descending from the seventh level.
By the time we reached the seventh floor, there was hardly anyone to be seen.
On the entire seventh floor, only a handful of people were meditating cross-legged in the plaza.
These figures were very close to the entrance to the seventh floor, and they looked somewhat troubled.
It's clear that it's not that they don't want to enter the cave to cultivate, but rather that they can no longer go any deeper and can only barely cultivate near the entrance.
Upon seeing this, Ji Zining pondered for a moment.
Judging from this, there should be no one left on the eighth floor.
Perfect timing! If no one's around, she can sign in without any worries when the sign-in opportunity unlocks at midnight.
If there are people around, she has to avoid them and sign in at the Nine Heavens Tower.
With the help of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Immortal Art and the Nine-Orifice Exquisite Body, the spiritual pressure of the seventh layer no longer affected Ji Zining.
Avoiding the powerful cultivators from the Ziwei Holy Land who were currently practicing, Ji Zining headed towards the stairs leading to the eighth floor.
"Da! Da! Da!"
The seventh floor was silent, with only the sound of Ji Zining's footsteps echoing as she moved forward.
Successfully reached the eighth level, aided by two Divine Rank Upper Grade techniques.
Ji Zining only felt a heaviness, as if an ordinary person were carrying a ten-pound weight, and nothing else.
Without the slightest delay, after adapting to the spiritual pressure of the eighth layer,
Ji Zining immediately headed towards the ninth and final floor of the Nine Heavens Tower.
"Clatter!"
With the sound of footsteps, Ji Zining's body entered the ninth floor of the Nine Heavens Tower.
The next instant, a spiritual pressure far exceeding Ji Zining's expectations suddenly descended.
Even though Ji Zining was prepared, she still couldn't help but bend her knees slightly.
During this process, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Immortal Art and the Nine-Orifice Exquisite Body are continuously activated to resist spiritual pressure.
After a long while, Ji Zining finally managed to adapt to the spiritual pressure of the ninth level and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
"The spiritual pressure here is truly astonishing; no wonder no one has been able to reach this place since ancient times."
The ninth floor of the Nine Heavens Tower appears to be the ninth floor, but in the eyes of the disciples of the Ziwei Holy Land, it actually only has eight floors.
Because while geniuses could occasionally enter the eighth level in a certain era, no one has been able to reach the ninth level since ancient times.
Ji Zining is now considered the first being to reach the ninth level since the ancient times.
With some difficulty, Ji Zining moved her body and sat down cross-legged in the center of the square.
We've reached the ninth level. Now it's time to cultivate and improve our cultivation level!
Closing her eyes, Ji Zining focused her mind and began to cultivate.
The pure Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi around them was drawn towards Ji Zining.
Time flew by, and two hours passed quickly.
"Pop!"
With a slight sound, an even more terrifying aura than before surged from Ji Zining's body.
Breakthrough, Spirit Transformation Realm Second Stage!
In just two hours, Ji Zining broke through one level of cultivation and reached the Spirit Transformation Realm Second Stage.
Even after breaking through, Ji Zining did not wake up, but instead immersed herself in cultivation, continuing to improve her cultivation level.
In the time that followed, faint sounds could be heard intermittently within the ninth floor.
"Pop!"
"Pop!"
"..."
At one moment, a completely emotionless voice rang in Ji Zining's mind.
"The check-in opportunities have been refreshed; you can check in now!"
"Host, would you like to check in now?"
Upon hearing this voice, Ji Zining slightly opened her eyes.
It's already past midnight? That's fast.
After a day of cultivation, Ji Zining's cultivation level rose from the Spirit Transformation Realm First Layer to the Spirit Transformation Realm Fourth Stage Peak.
He was just one step away from advancing to the Spirit Transformation Realm Fifth Stage.
This rate of improvement is undeniably rapid.
This kind of training outside would take at least a month, or even several months.
Taking a deep breath, Ji Zining voice.
"System, check-in!"
"Checking in..."
"Sign-in successful! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Divine Rank Upper Grade Movement Technique, the Exquisite Flying Immortal Steps!"
