With the six participants having completely retreated from the platform, the atmosphere surrounding the cave gradually returned to silence once more.
The violent clashes and chaotic battles occurring across the other sections of the tower could still be heard faintly in the distance as muffled explosions and occasional shockwaves echoed throughout the enormous structure, yet the platform Max now stood upon had already beco completely calm.
The tension from earlier had disappeared entirely, leaving only shattered stone, scattered spiritual fluctuations, and the oppressive pressure of the ancient tower descending endlessly from above.
Max did not waste any ti lingering outside.
After briefly glancing toward the direction the six participants had departed, he calmly turned around and walked toward the cave entrance behind him with steady steps.
The mont he crossed into the cave, a faint wave of spiritual energy imdiately brushed across his body.
Max's eyes narrowed slightly.
The interior of the cave was not particularly large, yet the environnt within clearly differed greatly from the outside world. Dark stone walls surrounded the entire interior while ancient symbols and mysterious runic markings glowed faintly across the surfaces, illuminating the cave with a dim silver radiance that gave the place an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.
The pressure within the cave also felt noticeably denser than outside.
Even the energy floating through the air seed purer and more concentrated, causing the surroundings to feel far more oppressive despite the cave's relatively small size.
At the very center of the cave—
There was a chest.
Max's gaze imdiately focused upon it as he slowly walked closer.
The chest itself appeared ancient, forged from so kind of black tallic material covered entirely in strange runic carvings that faintly pulsed with spiritual light. Dense spiritual energy continuously leaked from within it, making it imdiately obvious that whatever treasure was hidden inside was definitely no ordinary item.
"So this is how the rewards are stored…" Max muttered quietly while observing the chest carefully.
Without wasting any ti, he directly reached forward and opened it.
The mont the lid lifted—
A burst of dazzling golden light erupted outward instantly, illuminating the entire cave.
At the sa ti, an astonishing wave of dense vitality energy flooded outward like a tidal wave, causing even Max's expression to shift slightly in surprise.
Inside the chest rested a dark crimson crystal fruit roughly the size of a fist.
Golden veins spread throughout its surface like flowing rivers of molten gold while powerful fluctuations of blood energy continuously radiated from within it in rhythmic pulses. The fruit almost appeared alive, and rely staring at it caused the blood flowing through Max's body to stir faintly.
"What strong body cultivation energy…" Max said softly while observing the fruit closely.
At that exact mont, a translucent notification suddenly appeared before his eyes.
[Discovered Treasure: Heavenly Titan Blood Fruit]
[Treasure Grade: Low Divine]
[Description: A rare body cultivation treasure capable of strengthening flesh, bones, and blood essence. Long-term consumption can significantly improve physical strength and bodily endurance.]
[The treasure has been recorded and will be awarded to Max Morgan after the trial ends.]
Max's eyes imdiately brightened after reading the notification.
A body cultivation treasure.
And clearly not an ordinary one either.
The Heavenly Titan Blood Fruit possessed astonishingly powerful effects specifically suited toward strengthening the physical body. Even for soone like Max, whose body had already reached terrifying levels due to the Black Dragon Chaotic Bloodline, Dragon Scales Transformation, and the Vein of Strength, this treasure would still provide considerable benefits.
The re fact that such a valuable treasure existed within only a fifth-layer cave imdiately made Max realize sothing important.
"If treasures of this level already exist on the fifth layer…"
His gaze instinctively lifted upward as though he could see directly through the cave ceiling toward the higher sections of the tower.
"Then what kind of treasures are hidden above?"
A faint excitent gradually surfaced within his eyes.
The higher layers of the tower likely contained treasures far beyond this.
Perhaps High Divine Tier resources.
Perhaps ancient inheritances left behind by terrifying experts.
Or perhaps treasures so valuable that even top geniuses within the Divine Realm would fight desperately over them.
The more Max thought about it, the more interested he beca.
Then suddenly—
Another thought surfaced within his mind.
His eyes narrowed faintly as the idea ford completely.
"If I can sweep through enough of the higher caves…" Max muttered slowly to himself.
A faint crackle of seven-colored lightning unconsciously flickered around his body.
"Then I might finally gather enough resources…"
The light within his eyes sharpened imdiately afterward.
"To force open the Fourth Divine Vein."
The Fourth Vein among the Seven Divine Veins.
Vein of Speed.
Even after successfully opening the Third Divine Vein, the Vein of Strength, Max had never forgotten the existence of the remaining Divine Veins hidden within his body.
The Vein of Strength alone had already amplified his physical power to such a monstrous extent that he could casually crush peak Law Refinent Realm geniuses with nothing but his bare fists.
If the Fourth Vein truly amplified speed with the sa terrifying intensity—
Then the increase to his combat strength would beco almost unimaginable.
Especially when combined with his seven-colored lightning.
A faint smile slowly appeared across Max's face as anticipation gradually rose within his heart.
"It seems this tower is far more valuable than I originally expected," he murmured quietly.
Then he slowly turned around and walked back toward the cave entrance.
As he stepped outside once more, his gaze instinctively lifted toward the towering upper layers stretching endlessly above him.
At that mont, the desire to climb even higher within the tower beca stronger than ever before within Max's heart.
Max did not waste any more ti remaining inside the cave after obtaining the Heavenly Titan Blood Fruit.
After taking one final glance around the dimly illuminated interior, he calmly stepped back outside onto the platform before imdiately lifting his gaze toward the towering upper sections of the enormous ancient tower stretching endlessly into the sky above him.
