This Treasure Tower, together with Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable’s cave abode, seems to be a natural formation, likely existing since the construction of this abode.
Even after hundreds of thousands of years of supplentary repair, the restrictions on this Treasure Tower still flicker.
Chu Feng carefully looked around the chamber; there were no restrictions, proving there was no danger here.
However, upon seeing this Treasure Tower, Chu Feng felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen it before.
"This Treasure Tower seems a bit similar to the Path of Heaven?"
Suddenly, Chu Feng realized that the shape of this Treasure Tower was sowhat similar to a tower in his mind—specifically, the thousand-foot Treasure Tower called the Path of Heaven at Martial Victory Academy.
However, the Treasure Tower in this chamber was much larger, and the power it contained was far superior to that of the Path of Heaven.
If that tower sfandran were alive, he might not be able to shake this Treasure Tower.
"Could this be the Martial Arts Tower?"
Qing ng, beside Chu Feng, suddenly spoke.
"I once read in ancient texts that, in Ancient Tis, each Sect would construct a unique Spiritual Artifact for testing its disciples."
"Inside this Martial Arts Tower, the test isn’t about the Martial Artist’s strength, but rather the Martial Arts—that is, their skill in any path of Martial Arts. It’s said that entering it will suppress one’s power to a very low Realm to scrutinize their Martial Arts."
"In Ancient Tis, there were many geniuses, and most disciples had high natural talent compared to today’s standards. The true strength cos not just from natural talent but from a high degree of proficiency in Martial Arts," Qing ng murmured to herself.
"Has Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable really erected a Martial Arts Tower in this cave abode? Could he have known soone would co?"
"This must be a trial left by Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable."
Upon entering this cave abode, Chu Feng imdiately understood.
This Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable’s cave abode was clearly not hastily constructed before his sudden fall.
It appears more like a testing ground deliberately left by Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable, from needing a token to enter, to the Martial Arts Tower before them.
It seems only those who pass Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable’s test are truly qualified to receive his treasures.
As for obtaining them by force?
The restrictions here an that even a Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor would only find destruction in trying to breach them.
Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable was a legendary Immortal Venerable. Even the restrictions he left behind remain challenging to overco, despite millions of years passing.
"Legend has it, entering the Martial Arts Tower, passing several tests can earn rewards—perhaps this contains opportunities left by Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable."
Qing ng looked at the Martial Arts Tower with a smile.
"Since we’re here, why not give it a try? It’s said that entering the Martial Arts Tower poses no danger, and any loss inside will result only in being forcibly expelled."
While Qing ng and Chu Feng conversed, suddenly, a crack opened in the wall of the chamber nearby.
Soon, a figure flew in.
Seeing this person, Chu Feng’s eyes grew wary. He hadn’t expected to encounter soone here.
"It’s Emperor Yan." Qing ng spoke softly upon seeing the incoming person.
Emperor Yan.
Chu Feng had seen him before on the mountain peak. An Eight Tribulation Ancient Emperor not belonging to the Four Great Forces, he alone rules a continent.
Emperor Yan governs a Grade Six Continent, Yanzhou, a step above the Daoist Ancient Continent where Chu Feng had previously ventured.
Because Emperor Yan is not part of the other Three Great Forces, he has no significant enmity with Qing ng.
However, this is Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable’s cave abode. For the sake of treasures, falling out is just a mont’s concern.
Over treasures, brothers might fall out, father and son turn against each other—and certainly strangers too.
"Oh? Soone arrived first?"
Emperor Yan, entering the chamber, seed surprised upon seeing Chu Feng and Qing ng, not expecting others to be here.
"Did Emperor Yan find any treasure?"
Qing ng asked curiously.
"Treasure? What treasure? Just a passage leading to a chamber like this," Emperor Yan replied, seeming frustrated.
Listen to these words, Chu Feng and Qing ng exchanged glances.
It seems their guess was correct; acquiring the treasures of Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable’s cave abode isn’t straightforward. Emperor Yan apparently followed a path similar to the one Chu Feng previously took.
Now he too reached this chamber.
"Seems like this chamber isn’t a place with any treasure," Emperor Yan remarked as he looked around and saw the Martial Arts Tower.
"That’s the Martial Arts Tower?"
"Correct," Qing ng nodded.
"Does Emperor Yan want to try the Martial Arts Tower?"
"The Martial Arts Tower—never went there in my youth, now seems a chance. Let’s try it; maybe there are treasures to be had," Emperor Yan chuckled.
Emperor Yan, though renowned for ages, spoke with incredible humor.
Moreover, he didn’t exhibit much animosity towards Chu Feng and Qing ng, easing Chu Feng’s mind.
Any Eight Tribulation Ancient Emperor is tough to deal with. Chu Feng’s ability to kill Mu Tiange was thanks to Qing ng’s prior battle with Mu Tiange.
From a pure power standpoint, Chu Feng should be barely equal to an Eight Tribulation Ancient Emperor. To truly kill one remains extrely difficult.
The lack of hostility from Emperor Yan is a positive for Chu Feng.
"Senior Sister first, then Emperor Yan, and I go last. How about that?" Chu Feng suggested.
Since it’s just the three of them, it doesn’t matter who enters the Martial Arts Tower first. Chu Feng also wishes to see what kind of test the Martial Arts Tower entails.
"Doesn’t matter to . How about you, Qing ng?"
Emperor Yan responded casually.
"Alright then," Qing ng agreed, stepping forward toward the Martial Arts Tower.
The Martial Arts Tower has always been without danger, so Qing ng isn’t worried. Her form stepping before the Martial Arts Tower soon disappeared.
The restriction atop the Martial Arts Tower began to slowly rotate.
As ti passed, the lower level of the Martial Arts Tower suddenly shimred with white light, shooting upwards.
"Seems Qing ng has passed the first level," Emperor Yan comnted.
Looking at the Martial Arts Tower, Chu Feng estimated it stood twenty-one levels tall.
The first level is nothing significant for Qing ng.
