Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL] Chapter 319: Towers 2

Blasting talisman, fla talisman, wind talisman, turtle shell talisman, earth wall talisman...

The East and West murals had more than ten thousand maps of common level one talismans.

However, these maps were nothing to Zhen Yuan.

First, the quantity couldn’t compare to his inheritance, and the quality was a lot worse than what he had already learned.

Three days later, he left the West wall, walked to the North wall, and sat in front of one of the wooden boards.

The assessnt involved drawing one thousand level one talismans in accordance with the inheritance.

Zhen Yuan had no problem with this and spent half a day drawing the required talismans.

Soon after, his identity jade square showed a passing score, and Zhen Yuan nodded before walking towards the stairway.

However, moving from one floor to the next was not free.

At the bottom of the staircase was a stone door, and a wooden chest was placed before it.

Seeing this, Zhen Yuan lowered his head and saw writing on the chest lid.

"Pay one hundred thousand spirit stones to open the door." He read and subconsciously sighed.

Still, he opened the chest lid and placed one hundred thousand spirit stones inside.

Simultaneously, the door opened, and Zhen Yuan saw the stairs to the second floor.

The second floor had the sa design as the first floor.

However, the space and murals were smaller, and there were fewer people.

Second floor, third floor, ..., seventh floor.

Zhen Yuan used one month and spent more than eleven billion to climb from the first to the seventh floor.

After drawing the last talisman on the seventh floor, he flopped into his seat with a thoughtful expression.

’We can’t sell the tokens for less than twelve billion spirit stones.’ He thought.

After all, the whole point of conquering the towers was to get the teleportation tokens and then resell them on the black market.

As such, if the tokens were sold for less than twelve billion spirit stones, the whole business would be a loss.

While Zhen Yuan was thinking, the tower shook and a voice echoed all over the Talisman Tower City.

"Clearance ti, one month." The voice said, and the city fell silent.

"Did I hear right?" Soone asked, looking at his companion.

"I also think I am hallucinating. It’s impossible to clear the tower in one month." The companion said.

"Not just the entire tower, it’s impossible to clear one floor in one month."

"But soone did it."

"Could the tower be broken?"

"It’s possible but..."

"The eight towers are magical weapons. It’s not impossible for them to break."

"Aren’t they checked and repaired every one thousand years?"

"Why are you arguing? Do you think it’s more likely that the tower is broken or do you think it’s more probable that a person has cleared the seven floors in one month?"

"When you put it that way..."

Similar conversations were going on in every corner of the city.

Even the city lord’s residence was in chaos and the city lord was worried the tower would collapse or stop functioning.

When that happened, not only would the upcoming teleportation be affected but his status as city lord would be at risk.

"Why did this kind of strange thing happen during my term?" He cursed in an angry voice.

"City lord, could soone have sabotaged the tower?" An elder asked but the city lord shook his head.

"The towers are level nine weapons. Who can sabotage them?"

"Father, other than that notice, the tower seems to be functioning properly." The city lord’s eldest son suddenly stated.

A mont later, he looked at his father with a solemn expression.

"Father, I think we need to consider the possibility that soone has actually cleared the tower in one month." He said.

"How is that possible?" Another son sneered but the eldest shook his head.

"Most of the people who enter the towers do so for the inheritances. However, so cultivators already have complete inheritances and only enter the towers to get teleportation tokens. We could be dealing with such a cultivator." The eldest said.

"I still don’t think it’s possible." The city lord’s second daughter suddenly weighted in and quickly continued.

"Think about it..." She started.

"The first-floor assessnt requires one thousand talismans, the second floor requires eight hundred, ..., and so forth. Even if the person already knew all the talisman maps before entering the tower, can they draw so many talismans in just one month? Can their qi keep up?"

"This is indeed a problem." The city lord nodded.

Although he was a void refining realm cultivator and a level seven talisman master, he couldn’t draw so many talismans in one month.

Most importantly, the tower didn’t usually announce the clearance ti of everyone who cleared the tower.

Instead, it only announced the ti of those eligible for a teleportation token.

Considering that, the city lord felt the one-month clearance ti couldn’t be anything more than a mistake.

After all, what were the chances of a several hundred years old cultivator clearing the tower in one month?

"There are heavens above heavens and people beyond people." The eldest muttered but the others were not convinced.

In the end, the city lord led a group to wait for the person who supposedly cleared the tower in one month.

.....

Inside the tower, Zhen Yuan was looking at his rewards.

Excluding the teleportation token, he also got a soul stone, a level one to nine talisman inheritance, a bottle of level seven talisman liquid, and ten thousand pieces of level seven talisman paper.

However, the inheritance was just for show.

At a glance, the level one to seven talisman maps were no different from what was in the tower.

As for the others, the level eight inheritance had three talisman maps and the level nine had one map.

Seeing this, Zhen Yuan sighed but soon smiled.

’I can also sell this inheritance.’ He thought.

However, he didn’t smile for long.

Just as he was putting away the rewards, a white light enveloped him and his vision blurred.

When the light dissipated, he raised his head and saw a group of people staring at him with solemn expressions.
