Chapter 1665: Chapter 1661: Another Acquisition

They all knew that the method to approach the giant tower was to avoid using Spiritual Essence.

Without using Spiritual Essence, their palms could adhere to the giant tower.

And once they adhered to the giant tower, they still couldn’t use Spiritual Essence, or they would be repelled.

Their Sacrificial Refining Method was greatly restricted without being able to utilize Spiritual Essence.

They looked towards the gaunt middle-aged Cheng Siyao.

Cheng Siyao’s face was solemn.

He had already discovered the anomaly of this giant tower, which was different from his previous perception.

Earlier, he had tried to refine it, but although he didn’t succeed, he was close.

After all, having attempted to refine it, there should have been some lingering traces left.

But there was no trace of spiritual remnants on this giant tower, as if it were a brand new tower.

He faintly felt this way, but reason suppressed this thought.

In his opinion, it wasn’t possible there was another tower.

Such giant towers were rare Divine Artifacts; how could there be two identical ones?

Thus, he continued to focus on refining, ignoring his companions’ refining attempts.

He was certain they wouldn’t find the way, akin to blind men feeling an elephant.

He had a unique refining technique that didn’t require Spiritual Essence, only mental engagement.

Even if they all touched the giant tower, it would be a fruitless effort.

Someone asked, ”Old Cheng, can you refine without using Spiritual Essence?”

Cheng Siyao remained silent.

”Old Cheng, don’t play dead!”

”Brother Cheng, give us some pointers.”

”Exactly! We’re here to help!”

Cheng Siyao opened his eyes, his gaze like cold lightning.

Everyone was startled.

”You’re not supposed to use Spiritual Essence; this gaze suggests you’re operating power.”

Someone asked, ”Old Cheng, do you have a secret technique that can deceive this giant tower?”

Cheng Siyao replied coldly, ”It involves a secret technique. Do you expect me to pass it on to you?”

”Haha... It would be best if you could teach us.”

”Daydreaming!” Cheng Siyao said irritably. ”Everyone relies on their own skills; those who can refine, refine, and those who can’t, fend off any newcomers later.”

”Seems like a special secret technique,” someone shook their head, giving up further attempts.

If they didn’t operate Spiritual Essence, standing in the Void was a luxury.

They were able to stand thanks to the Spiritual Essence flowing beneath their feet, not through their palms.

”Eh—?”

Suddenly, someone exclaimed.

”Eh—!”

”Ah ah?!”

Exclamations rang out in succession as the giant tower slowly shrank and then shrank again.

They were unable to react in time, watching it rapidly shrink away from their hands and then suddenly disappear.

”What’s going on?!”

”Where did it go?”

”Old Cheng, did you succeed in refining it?”

Cheng Siyao’s expression was extremely grim, his eyes like cold lightning: ”No!”

”Impossible, Old Cheng, don’t hide from us; if you didn’t refine it, then what happened?!”

Everyone eagerly discussed.

”It must be Old Cheng’s doing!”

”Probably not Old Cheng.”

Cheng Siyao glanced around, his cold gaze sweeping across.

Seeing his expression wasn’t feigned, they gradually ceased their discussion, looking around as they swiftly moved, beginning to search the area.

Within a radius of a mile, nothing was missed; after combing through like a sieve, they returned to their original position.

”No one came over.”

”No presence.”

”Did the giant tower escape on its own? Could it be frightened by our numbers?”

”Possibly.”

”But it’s a giant tower; how could it be afraid of us?”

”Annoyed by us, as we’re all refining, like a crowd buzzing around its ears?”

Everyone looked at each other, turning their gaze towards Cheng Siyao.

Cheng Siyao’s face was dark as if water could drip from it, gritting his teeth: ”It was an inside job!”

”Someone? Old Cheng, who did it?!”

”I don’t know who, but someone definitely intervened!”

”Old Cheng, wasn’t the Divine Artifact transforming on its own? If someone actually acted, they couldn’t possibly do it without us noticing, right?”

For so many Spirit Venerables to be stealthily approached and even have a Divine Artifact taken was an unbelievable claim.

Even the Ninth Transitions Spirit Venerable couldn’t accomplish this, not to mention the rarity of Ninth Transitions Spirit Venerables, nearly nonexistent.

Low Rank Spirit Venerables weren’t difficult; High Rank was exceedingly challenging, not achievable through mere accumulation.

Achieving Ninth Transitions Spirit Venerable seemed nearly impossible.

”Old Cheng, explain the reason,” someone prompted, ”It’s not baseless guessing; there must be some evidence, right?”

”Evidence...” Cheng Siyao pondered.

”Yes, there must be evidence.”

”Evidence...” Cheng Siyao frowned: ”Intuition, maybe.”

”So there’s no evidence, huh...

”Intuition... Our Spirit Venerable intuition is pretty accurate, but we didn’t have such a feeling.”

”Indeed, felt no approach from anyone.”

They all shook their heads.

Indeed, no sense of approach from anyone, even Ninth Transitions Spirit Venerables couldn’t hide from so many.

Given that these Spirit Venerables weren’t Low Rank, some had unique secret techniques or excelled in sensing.

Even the most powerful Spirit Venerables couldn’t deceive all of them.

”Should we leave?”

”Are we willing to?”

”Old Cheng, after your refining, the aura should have adhered to the giant tower; can you sense it?”

”...Can’t sense it.” Cheng Siyao shook his head grimly.

If the Divine Artifact was still in this world, he would vaguely sense it.

Even if not clearly, even with constantly changing positions, he could faintly detect it.

Now, he felt nothing.

Which meant it had already left this world.

”Wasn’t it the Divine Artifact that disappeared on its own?”

”Grab those folks back and ask them!”

”Exactly!”

Upon thinking, they acted, shooting forth instantly.

Cheng Siyao watched them but remained motionless, still in place, gazing at the previous position of the giant tower.

He couldn’t comprehend why the tower abruptly left without the slightest indication.

Could it be that the tower did leave on its own and wasn’t sabotaged?

Momentarily, he was consumed by doubt.

Meanwhile, Chu Zhiyuan was all smiles.

Unexpectedly, he was able to connect with that Stone Tower through his Stone Tower and then lure it over using the Heaven-Reaching Spirit Talisman.

The two stone towers had an excellent relationship, their spirituality like that of teenagers.

A slight coaxing, coupled with the lure of the Inner Universe, and the stone tower quickly transformed and arrived here, entering the Inner Universe.

Chu Zhiyuan didn’t rush to refine it, instead allowing it to stay in the Inner Universe without leaving.

The Inner Universe seemed to appeal to it greatly; more interesting than staying in the Divine Domain.

The two stone towers emitted strange energies that were altering the Spiritual Energy within the Inner Universe.

He vaguely understood why the Inner Universe had greater allure for them.

To transform a realm with sparse Spiritual Energy into one abundant with it was more challenging and interesting for them.

He was curious whether more stone towers would come over.

Why did another stone tower appear after he collected the initial one?

If there’s one, then two; would there be three or four?

Could it be because this Divine Domain was once inhabited by the Divine Race that stone towers must guard it?

If one stone tower left, would another replace it?

He pondered as he continued transporting Dragon Mountain.

With the addition of this stone tower, the Inner Universe evolved again.

He felt he was closer to the Nine Transitions, as thin as paper.

A gentle poke could breach this barrier.

He wasn’t in a rush to break through, thinking of the Nine Transitions as a natural progression, not forcing it.

As dusk approached and he was ready to return to the Profound Yin Palace to find Xiao Ruoling, he saw Zeng Yun and the others already encircled by Cheng Siyao’s group.

He shook his head and sighed.

The Heavenly Sword faintly shone.

Zeng Yun raised the Jade Pendant, illuminating the surrounding Spirit Venerables.

The Jade Pendant slightly rippled, its aura gently spreading outward.

Cheng Siyao’s companions frowned.
