Supreme Lord of Towers

In the tranquil secret chamber, the extraordinary phenomena surrounding Ye Chen persisted for about several dozens of breaths before finally dissipating.

Deep within Ye Chen’s Dantian, there emerged a golden vortex.

This vortex seemed to contain countless tiny stars within it, resembling a miniature nebula, intensely captivating.

This is Ye Chen’s Myriad Dao Space that has been condensed.

”Master, by simply operating the ’Myriad Dao Human Emperor Technique,’ you can draw the power of these fifty thousand Spirit Stones into the Myriad Dao Space, using it to temper your body,” the Tower Spirit said with a hint of excitement.

After all these years, he had finally found someone who could condense the Myriad Dao Space.

Once the Myriad Dao Space is successfully condensed, it means the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body created by his master is about to reappear in the world.

Soon, this Supreme Martial Body will surely make the All Heavens and Myriad Realms tremble.

Sizzle.

As Ye Chen operated the ’Myriad Dao Human Emperor Technique,’ the Myriad Dao Space deep within his Dantian began to rotate rapidly, unleashing an immensely terrifying devouring power.

Immediately after, the fifty thousand Spirit Stones placed in the wooden box were devoured by this force, disappearing without a trace.

”What a domineering Myriad Dao Space, so many Spirit Stones were devoured in an instant,” Ye Chen’s body suddenly trembled, deeply shocked by the scene before him.

If it were an ordinary Cultivator, absorbing them would take decades, and still not be able to fully absorb them.

Yet the Myriad Dao Space can transform them into a pure energy and store them in its depths in an instant.

This is truly unfathomable.

”Master, using energy to temper the body is an incredibly painful task, you should be mentally prepared,” the Tower Spirit couldn’t help but remind Ye Chen.

”Enduring the bitter hardships leads to greater heights, for the sake of becoming stronger, I must endure any pain,” Ye Chen’s gaze was resolute to the extreme.

Buzz.

In the next moment, he followed the method recorded in the ’Myriad Dao Human Emperor Technique,’ urging the stored energy in the depths of the Myriad Dao Space, beginning to temper his own body.

In a blink, violent and untamed energy surged out from the Myriad Dao Space like a wild horse, fiercely rushing into Ye Chen’s meridians and flesh.

Ah!

A piercing scream involuntarily escaped Ye Chen’s mouth, he nearly fainted.

Although, the Tower Spirit had already warned him that using energy to temper the body involves immense pain.

However, Ye Chen did not expect the pain to be to such an extent.

His body felt as though it was being slashed into pieces, every chunk of flesh seemed to be brutally torn apart.

If it weren’t for Ye Chen’s remarkably steadfast will, he definitely would have chosen to give up immediately.

”No, I absolutely cannot give up, if I give up, then I won’t be able to become stronger, I won’t be able to protect my foster father and mother,” Ye Chen’s face was contorted, his entire body drenched in cold sweat.

Yet he gritted his teeth, continuing to urge energy to refine his body.

”Not bad, the master’s willpower is fairly strong, better than I imagined,” the Tower Spirit’s eyes revealed a hint of comfort.

He was initially worried that Ye Chen might give up cultivating the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body due to being unable to withstand this terrible pain.

But now, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

In this world, the path to becoming a peerless powerhouse is not an easy one.

Even though Ye Chen received the supreme legacy left by the Human Emperor, without strong willpower, he couldn’t continue cultivating.

Opportunities are grasped by oneself.

Time flies.

In an instant, three hours had passed.

At first, Ye Chen’s body was convulsing from the intense pain, nearly breaking his spirit.

But as time went by, the sensation of pain gradually weakened.

That’s because Ye Chen’s body began to adapt to this pain.

”The master’s willpower is truly impressive, if he keeps cultivating, he might really be able to carry forward the supreme legacy of the Human Emperor,” the Tower Spirit chuckled, eyes filled with deep comfort.

Ye Chen’s willpower is far stronger than expected.

Only such individuals can achieve remarkable accomplishments in the future.

Those with weak willpower, even with high talent, find it difficult to go far.

”Tower Spirit, my strength seems unchanged!” Ye Chen furrowed his brows.

He initially thought that after tempering his body for three hours, his physical power would be improved.

Yet he discovered his strength remained merely at two to three hundred pounds, almost the same as before.

Wasn’t cultivating the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body supposed to enhance his physique?

Why is there no noticeable change at all?

”Master, only by thoroughly cultivating the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body to the First Level of Foundation Establishment Realm will your strength undergo an earth-shattering transformation, granting you the Power of a Hundred Tigers. As for now, you are merely accumulating, your strength won’t change significantly,” the Tower Spirit explained.

”Then my combat power won’t see much improvement in the short term,” Ye Chen’s expression revealed disappointment.

His purpose of cultivating the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body was to amplify his combat capabilities quickly.

Only then could he be confident enough to harvest the Purple Heart Fruit.

But now he found out that before reaching the First Level of Foundation Establishment Realm, the power of the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body wouldn’t change much.

This felt like a bucket of cold water poured over him.

”Master, although your strength may not increase significantly, your body’s defense power and speed will manifest visible changes, which will help you greatly,” the Tower Spirit couldn’t help but console Ye Chen.

”Really? Then I’ll give it a try,” Ye Chen promptly got up from the ground.

Whoosh.

The next moment, his body swiftly moved within the secret chamber, like a gust of Qingfeng, gracefully agile to the extreme.

”So fast, my speed has improved by thirty to forty percent,” Ye Chen exclaimed joyfully.

Previously, without the use of ’Spiritual Ape Step,’ his speed was similar to an ordinary person’s.

Yet now, he’s become much more agile, speed enhanced by about thirty to forty percent.

This is the benefit of body tempering.

With such great speed, he’s more assured in defeating strong rivals in the upcoming admissions assessment, aiming for first place.

”Master, try testing your body’s defense power,” the Tower Spirit smiled.

”Alright,” Ye Chen, full of excitement, channeled a bit of True Qi towards his arm, finding it sounded like striking fine steel, producing a sharp clanging sound.

”So strong, is this really my body? Practically comparable to some Tier One Demon Beasts,” Ye Chen’s eyes brimmed with incredulity.

It’s known that the body of a Tier One Demon Beast is immensely terrifying compared to Cultivators in the True Qi Realm.

Using ordinary weapons hardly harms them.

Only sharp weapons can cut through their skin and flesh.

Now Ye Chen’s body is akin to those Tier One Demon Beasts, even when standing to be hit by ordinary people, he wouldn’t be injured.

This is the benefit of body tempering.

”My attack power may not change much, but my speed and defense power have increased significantly. Continuing to cultivate, even if I can’t beat Tier Two Demon Beasts, there’s still great hope to escape them,” Ye Chen’s eyes flashed with brilliant light.

He finally sees a glimmer of hope to harvest the Purple Heart Fruit.

”Chen, are you still cultivating? There’s only half an hour before the admissions assessment begins, you mustn’t miss it.” Just then, a gentle woman’s voice filled with doting affection sounded from outside the chamber.

The owner of the voice was clearly Ye Chen’s foster mother, Xiao Hui.
