Martial Arts, the Fairy's Cultivation

Inside the Talisman Master Tower.

Two figures appeared. As soon as Lin Dong stood still, he felt the spiritual pressure emanating from the tower surging in from all directions, causing his shoulders to sag slightly.

But as that oppressive force penetrated into Lin Dong's Niwan Palace, it instantly vanished under the abyss-like and hellish aura of the Chaos Divine Lotus.

"Is this the mental pressure Master Yan mentioned? If it's only this level, I don't feel much of it."

"Hey, with your current strength, the first level of cultivation is practically useless. I'm afraid only the mental power at the top level will be of some use."

The little sable's lazy voice rang in Lin Dong's mind. At Lin Dong's current level, fighting against some seal masters who were at most second or third level couldn't really arouse much interest.

Lin Dong ignored the little sable and instead turned his gaze to the white-clad beauty beside him.

"Miss Mu, let's go upstairs."

"Um."

Mu Zi nodded gently, then took a graceful step, her elegant figure moving at a moderate pace towards the entrance to the second floor. Lin Dong followed.

At this moment, many figures were sitting cross-legged in front of the passage, concentrating on resisting the mental pressure inside the tower. Seeing the relaxed and carefree posture of the man and woman, everyone's eyes revealed a hint of envy.

Only after the two figures disappeared behind the passage did gasps of amazement gradually rise from above the plaza.

"Who is that girl? Have you seen her before?"

"Was I hallucinating? How can there be such a beauty in the world?"

"What a pity, if only she would have glanced at me..."

"You're overthinking it."

Out of everyone's sight, Lin Dong looked at the stunningly beautiful girl beside him, a faint smile of helplessness appearing on his lips. Miss Mu's charm was truly exaggerated. If she didn't deliberately try to lower her presence, she would probably become the absolute focus wherever she went. Lin Dong, who was walking with her, was completely ignored by everyone, as if they didn't even see him.

"What's wrong, are you jealous?"

Mu Zi turned her head slightly to look at Lin Dong, her jade hand casually brushing a strand of hair behind her ear, making Lin Dong's heart itch.

Lin Dong shrugged, quite nonchalantly. Not to mention he wasn't one to seek the limelight; on the contrary, even if Miss Mu's presence overshadowed his brilliance, Lin Dong would simply smile calmly.

Having such a stunningly beautiful woman by his side is a privilege many would envy. Although Lin Dong is mature and composed, he is still a young man, and sometimes he secretly feels a strange sense of accomplishment from having such a beautiful woman by his side.

Do you know why I entered the tower?

Mu Zi's sudden words startled Lin Dong. Indeed, if it was just about cultivating spiritual power, there was no need for Miss Mu to accompany him on this special trip.

Faced with Lin Dong's questioning gaze, Mu Zi kept him in suspense and turned her pretty face away.

You'll find out soon enough.

Inside the empty tower, the two walked side by side. The omnipresent mental pressure had no effect on them. They continued upwards and soon reached the seventh floor.

Almost none of the talisman masters participating in the tower battle were able to reach this level on their own strength; even Zi Yue was forced to stop at the sixth level.

At this moment, in the space on the seventh floor, there was only a man with unsteady steps, moving forward with a determined look in his eyes. Sweat had already soaked his clothes, and he looked like he was approaching his limit.

"You actually made it this far, that's amazing!"

The sound from behind made Zhou Tong pause. He turned around with difficulty and saw a man and a woman walking leisurely towards him. The young man, who looked to be no more than twenty years old, looked at him with a hint of admiration.

I'm really grateful...

Zhou Tong's lips twitched. Today, Yan City had produced two monsters.

Looking at their relaxed and carefree demeanor, it was as if they were simply enjoying the scenery. In contrast, Zhou Tong himself was already drenched in sweat, and the three talismans in his Niwan Palace were constantly trembling, unable to withstand the omnipresent and powerful mental pressure.

With such a huge gap, if Zhou Tong hadn't been so resolute, he probably would have been mentally devastated by those two.

Accompanied by a fragrant breeze, the two brushed past Zhou Tong and then, without stopping, stepped straight into the passage on the eighth floor.

A hint of helplessness flashed in Zhou Tong's eyes. He adjusted his mindset, sat down cross-legged on the spot, and began to cultivate by taking advantage of the pressure inside the tower.

Upon arriving at the eighth floor, the mental pressure permeating the space instantly surged. Even Lin Dong could faintly feel a slight pressure. The environment of the eighth floor was just right for a four-seal talisman master to hone their skills.

"You can cultivate here for a while."

Lin Dong's gaze swept across the space of the eighth floor and quickly settled on a stone tablet standing in the corner. On the surface of the stone tablet, which was filled with subtle spiritual fluctuations, some characters formed by runes could be vaguely seen.

"Mystic Techniques, Transformation Rune Array."

Lin Dong stepped forward and tried to comprehend it. He learned that it was a technique that combined attack and enemy control, and it was divided into three levels. It was used by mental power and its power was quite impressive. It was a good unexpected gain.

Lin Dong currently possesses immense spiritual power, but lacks the skills to fully utilize it. The Chaos Divine Lotus projection that suppressed his Niwan Palace is undoubtedly an extremely powerful divine ability, but due to its high level, Lin Dong is currently unable to unleash its full potential. This Transformation Talisman Array, however, is of a suitable level, far surpassing his original spiritual techniques such as the Divine Transformation Needle, and can be used as a conventional method.

"Don't rush to comprehend it. Go to the ninth floor and take a look. The real opportunities in the Talisman Master Tower are there."

With a flick of her finger, Mu Ziyu silently parted the mental barrier leading to the ninth floor, creating an entrance that allowed people to pass through. Lin Dong did not hesitate and stepped into the ninth floor one after the other with Mu Ziyu.

The ninth floor of the Talisman Master Tower was unusually ordinary, with a very small area, only a few dozen feet in size. The ground was also covered with a lot of dust, making it look quite messy compared to the floors below.

"It seems like no one has ever been here before."

Lin Dong was also stunned by the scene before him. He then carefully scanned the ninth floor and finally stopped in front of a wall with obscure patterns.

The patterns are extremely complex, exuding an ancient aura. Each stroke seems to contain the ultimate truth of the universe. Just one glance is enough to make one dizzy and unable to resist becoming captivated by them.
