Chapter 57: The Tower of Heaven
Shen Mu Feng sold a pass, mysteriously smiled and said: "This Tongtian Tower, the entire world, only has nine. Respectively held in our nine major Wudang sacred places, this is also the foundation of our nine major Wudang. I'll take you to experience the wonder of Tongtian Tower."
Su Han smiled and followed Shen Mu Feng towards the direction of Tong Tian Tower.
Under the Tongtian Tower, a large number of chivalrous and righteous sect disciples gathered.
"Dong Shijie is here!"
"How beautiful! Indeed, today she's as lovely as a fairy!"
“……”
Suddenly, a commotion arose from the crowd, and then the crowd parted to reveal a path. Five girls wearing white dresses walked along that path. These five girls in white dresses were all born beautiful and lovely. The first one was a girl with skin as white as snow, eyebrows like paintings, bright eyes and white teeth, full breasts, long legs, and an absolutely stunning face, with a temperament like a fairy.
Shen Mu Feng gazed at the woman wearing a white dress, looking like an ethereal fairy, and his eyes revealed a hint of admiration: "Dong Zhen, indeed still so dazzlingly beautiful, lovely beyond compare. Truly worthy of being the number one beauty in our Xiaoyi Gate."
Dong Zizhen's exquisite face had an icy aura, as if she was a fairy carved out of ice and snow. Under the gaze of everyone's admiring eyes, she didn't show any unusual behavior, nor did she have any hint of worldly charm, and together with the four girls by her side, she stepped into the Tongtian Tower.
Shen Mu Feng explained to Su Han: "Su Shidi, those five people are the shizis of Yunhua Peak. The leader is Dong Zhenzhen Shizi, who ranks 23rd on the Xiantian Qianlong List. She is also one of the most promising geniuses in our Xiaoyi Gate, with the highest hope of breaking through the bottleneck and impacting the Xiantian realm within three years."
"Indeed a peerless beauty." Su Han glanced at Dong Ziyu and didn't put her in his heart, instead curiously asked: "Shen Shixiong, what is the Xiantian Qianlong Bang?"
After surviving from the brink of death, Su Han devoted himself to martial arts and wasn't very interested in beautiful women.
"Hey, come with me."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them immediately arrived in front of the Tower of Heaven.
The Tongtian Tower's gate was tightly closed, with a cyan Lingyu panel on either side of the gate.
Arriving in front of Tongtian Tower, Shen Mufeng waved the jade token in his hand towards the cyan jade plate.
"Shen Mu Feng, inner disciple, has usage time of ten hours on the first floor of Tong Tian Tower. Access granted."
Along with a sweet and gentle female voice, the tightly closed gates of the Tower of Heaven made a creaking sound as they slowly opened.
Shen Mu pointed at the cyan jade slab and said: "Su Han, put the jade token in your hand here."
Su Han immediately waved the identity jade card in his hand towards the cyan jade board.
That sweet voice sounded again: "Su Han, inner disciple, has the right to use the first floor of Tongtian Tower for half an hour."
"Let's go in!" Shen Mu Feng strode into the Tower of Heaven with large steps.
Su Han also followed Shen Mu Feng into the Tong Tian Tower.
As soon as Su Han stepped into the Tongtian Tower, he felt his body suddenly sink, his breath stagnate, and then a thick spiritual energy came from the Tongtian Tower.
Su Han desperately circulated the Nine Heavens True Water and True Qi, the True Qi continuously strengthening his body, only then did he feel slightly more comfortable.
"On the first floor of Tongtian Tower, there is double gravity. At the same time, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is also twice that of the outside world. Training physically and cultivating internal skills in this place has an efficiency of at least ten times that of the outside world. Moreover, as a martial artist, you should understand that when it comes to the path of martial arts, it's easy to train one's muscles and bones, but difficult to cultivate one's internal organs. However, within Tongtian Tower, under the pressure of double gravity, even the internal organs can be tempered to become as hard as iron through the practice of physical skills."
"A strong physique is the foundation for advancing to the Innate Secret Realm, the stronger one's body is, the more confident they will be in breaking through to the Innate Secret Realm. It is precisely because of this Heavenly Tower that our nine great sacred lands have been able to produce top-notch experts one after another, with Innate experts emerging endlessly." Shen Mufeng explained to Su Han.
Su Han once practiced under the waterfall, using the impact of the waterfall to temper himself with extreme training methods, far surpassing ordinary training methods. However, practicing under the waterfall and in this Tower of Heaven are fundamentally not on the same level. Su Han's internal organs and armpits were difficult to train when he was practicing under the waterfall. But in this Tower of Heaven, any movement would consume a large amount of physical strength, allowing his entire body to receive intense training.
"Cultivating here, the efficiency is indeed far superior to other places."
Su Han performed a set of the simplest Three Yang Palms, and as soon as he finished, his whole body was drenched in sweat. The Nine Heaven True Water Technique began to circulate, and a large amount of spiritual energy immediately surged into his body, causing his spirit to be invigorated.
In the first layer of Tongtian Tower, many disciples of various martial arts schools were frantically cultivating. At the entrance leading from the first to the second layer, there was a huge stone slab.
Shen Mufeng brought Su Han to the front of that huge stone slab, looking up at the stone slab with many names engraved on it, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes: "This is the Pre-Heavenly Hidden Dragon List! All those who cultivate in the Tongtian Tower and reach the Later Heaven Ninth Realm will automatically leave their name on this list. The higher the ranking, the greater the potential. Those ranked in the top thirty are all geniuses with extraordinary talents. If they don't fall, they will eventually enter the Pre-Heavenly realm."
Su Han looked up at the Xiantian Qianlong list, and saw that in the 23rd position was Dong Zhen. His gaze swept down, his eyes narrowing slightly, and he suddenly discovered that Yun Tianhai's name was actually engraved in the 33rd place.
Su Han gazed at Yun Tian Hai's name, a flash of killing intent in his eyes: "This guy, his innate talent is indeed terrifyingly monstrous, he actually climbed to this position in such a short period of time. There is still a very long distance between him and me."
"There is the entrance to the second floor of Tongtian Tower. The gravity on the second floor of Tongtian Tower is three times that of here, and the spiritual energy is also three times that of here. However, in order to cultivate on the second floor of Tongtian Tower, a large amount of sect contribution is required. Cultivating for one hour on the first floor of Tongtian Tower requires 10,000 sect contributions. Cultivating for one hour on the second floor of Tongtian Tower requires 100,000 sect contributions. And so on, increasing continuously. The higher the floor, the stronger the gravity, the more abundant the spiritual energy, and the more sect contribution is required."
Su Han glanced around and silently memorized everything in her mind.
Shen Mu Feng took Su Han on a tour of the first floor of Tong Tian Tower, and then quickly left, heading in the direction of Hao Shu Peak.
Hao Shu Peak is located near the main peak of Xiaoyi Gate, also a mountain with a strong spiritual energy, full of vitality, and strange flowers and grasses all over.
Shen Mu Feng and Su Han were walking on a mountain path when suddenly, a blue fruit came flying towards Su Han's head with a whistling sound.
