The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1434: Chapter 1434: Eighth Layer

When one’s cultivation reaches the level of Jing Yan, one’s perception in the void becomes extremely powerful.

He felt that if he could master the ultimate domains of Ultimate Nihility, Sword Intent, Sharp Gold, and Red Flame, his offensive capabilities would be enough to rival a Divine Sovereign, which was a rather accurate judgment. If he could further master the defensive-oriented Weak Water Domain or Thick Earth Domain, Jing Yan would be confident in confronting someone like Zhi Ying Divine Sovereign head-on.

By that time, even if he encountered the Master of Dead Spirit Mountain, Zhongli, he could handle it with ease.

”No rush, take it slow! The five Basic Law Domains, I will master them one by one.” Jing Yan refocused his mind and quickly calmed down to observe the changes in his Divine Soul Body.

After staying on the seventh layer of the Quenching God Star Tower for eighty days, Jing Yan climbed the staircase leading to the eighth layer.

This time, Jing Yan seemed more cautious.

On the seventh layer of the Quenching God Star Tower, the energy fluctuations posed a significant threat to Jing Yan. The eighth layer would certainly be more perilous; Jing Yan did not want his Divine Soul Body to suffer severe damage there.

If the Divine Soul Body were severely injured, it could potentially affect Jing Yan’s future path in cultivation.

Whoosh!

Through the staircase, Jing Yan entered the space of the eighth layer of the Quenching God Star Tower.

”Wow!”

Terrifying energy fluctuations surged forward. Accompanied by the excruciating pain of the Divine Soul Body, Jing Yan felt his Divine Soul Body dissolving at an alarming pace.

”Not good! The special energy in this layer’s space is too strong, my Divine Soul Body can’t withstand it!” Jing Yan’s face changed abruptly, and his gaze quickly locked onto the teleportation array.

With a flicker of his figure, he quickly dashed toward the teleportation array.

Throughout the ages, martial artists who have managed to ascend to the eighth layer of the Quenching God Star Tower are indeed as rare as phoenix feathers. The most recent martial artist to reach the eighth layer of the Quenching God Star Tower was none other than Wanbao Daoist, the Master of Wanbao Divine Palace.

Even a powerhouse like Wanbao Daoist halted at the eighth layer of the Quenching God Star Tower, unable to ascend to the ninth layer.

What kind of figure is Wanbao Daoist? He is a being second only to the Heavenly Venerate. Although Jing Yan had never met Wanbao Daoist, he surmised that Wanbao Daoist’s strength was likely not inferior to his master, Zhan Yue God Emperor. Moreover, Wanbao Daoist was also a Holy Alchemist, having reached the pinnacle in the Alchemy Dao.

”Should I just leave like this?”

”From this entry into the Quenching God Star Tower, I’ve already gained a lot. Leaving now wouldn’t be a bad thing.”

Standing before the teleportation array, Jing Yan endured the intense pain of his Divine Soul Body, contemplating silently.

Suddenly, his eyes brightened as a flash of inspiration sparked in his mind.

”Little Black! Divine Soul Storm!” Jing Yan thought of his secret method, Divine Soul Storm.

”Yes!” Little Black responded immediately.

In an instant, the energy of the Divine Soul Storm swirled around Jing Yan’s body. The execution of the Divine Soul Storm drastically reduced the pressure on Jing Yan’s Divine Soul Body.

Upon sensing this change, Jing Yan was instantly overjoyed.

The special energy within the Quenching God Star Tower was incredibly strange. A martial artist’s divine power and the laws, domains, and other abilities they mastered could not prevent the infiltration of the Quenching God Star Tower’s energy.

Before using the Divine Soul Storm, Jing Yan couldn’t be sure of its effectiveness; he tried it out merely on a sudden thought as a last-ditch effort. Unexpectedly, the Divine Soul Storm proved exceptionally effective.

Following this, Jing Yan gradually reduced the power of the Divine Soul Storm, allowing more energy from the Quenching God Star Tower to temper his Divine Soul Body.

In the eighth layer space, Jing Yan stabilized himself.

At Star Tower Square!

”What?”

”He... he ascended to the eighth layer of the Quenching God Star Tower and hasn’t come out?”

”My God! In the history of the All Paths World, how many people have managed to ascend to the eighth layer of the Quenching God Star Tower? Who exactly is this Jing Yan? Isn’t he at the Emperor-level of the God Lord? Why is he able to stand firm on the eighth layer?”

”Unbelievable! It won’t take long for Emperor Jing Yan’s fame to spread throughout the All Paths World.”

Countless martial artists’ gazes focused on the Star Tower Light Curtain Wall. The red dot on it, representing Jing Yan’s red point, was located within the eighth-layer space of the Quenching God Star Tower. And even after a while, Emperor Jing Yan had not emerged from the Quenching God Star Tower.

In the Star Tower Restaurant, Emperor Chang Ying gazed fixedly at the Star Tower Light Curtain Wall, exhaling a breath after a long while.

He quickly took out a Communication Crystal Stone.

”Dear Pavilion Master!” His communication was directed at the Earth Pavilion Master.

”Elder Chang Ying, what’s the matter?” The Earth Pavilion Master’s authoritative voice responded.

”Dear Pavilion Master, do you remember the Emperor Jing Yan I mentioned to you before?” Chang Ying’s emotions were fervent.

”Hmm, so, has he decided to join Wanbao Divine Palace? An Emperor from the Human Territory is quite impressive. You can tell him if he joins the Earth Pavilion, I will certainly treat him well.” The Earth Pavilion Master said slowly.

”No! Dear Pavilion Master, Emperor Jing Yan entered the Quenching God Star Tower before, and he has yet to come out; he is still inside the Quenching God Star Tower.” Emperor Chang Ying quickly said.

”Not out yet? Then why are you messaging me now?” The Earth Pavilion Master’s displeased voice asked.

”Dear Pavilion Master, Emperor Jing Yan has entered the eighth layer of the Quenching God Star Tower. Moreover, he has established himself on the eighth layer. I think it’s a significant matter, so I deemed it necessary to inform you.” Emperor Chang Ying gently exhaled a breath.

After saying this, the Earth Pavilion Master remained silent for a long time.

A while later.

”Are you certain?” The Earth Pavilion Master’s voice was noticeably different from before.

In the history of the All Paths World, martial artists who managed to ascend to the eighth layer of the Quenching God Star Tower and stand firm have all shone brightly. In the future, they would be at least super first-class God Lords. Moreover, there is a great possibility that they could reach the God Emperor level.

”Absolutely.” Emperor Chang Ying said spiritedly.

”Indeed, this is a matter of great importance. In that case, I’ll head to Star Tower City right away and wait for Emperor Jing Yan to come out of the Quenching God Star Tower to talk to him. I must ensure he enters the Earth Pavilion, as we cannot let the other three pavilions snatch him away.” After sending this message, the Earth Pavilion Master cut off communication with Emperor Chang Ying.

Clearly, he was already on his way from the Wanbao Divine Palace to Star Tower City.

Meanwhile, where the Shadow Emperor was.

”Damn it, why isn’t the Pavilion Master responding?” The Shadow Emperor had sent multiple messages to the Heaven Pavilion Master but received no reply.

He was unaware that at this moment, the Heaven Pavilion Master was entangled in other matters and had not seen his messages at all.

”That damned Chang Ying must have also noticed that Emperor Jing Yan established himself on the eighth layer. He must have already communicated with the Earth Pavilion Master!” The Shadow Emperor glanced towards the Star Tower Restaurant, his expression somewhat grim.

He speculated that Emperor Chang Ying and the Earth Pavilion would certainly not remain indifferent, but he had no solution. He could only hope the Heaven Pavilion Master would respond before Emperor Jing Yan left the Quenching God Star Tower.
