Chapter 387 - 253: Demon Lock_3
"I really want to see this vision come true with my own eyes!"
"Unfortunately, fate is not on my side!"
With this thought in mind, Ye Fan sighed once again.
At the same time, the Demon-locking Tower sent a prompt.
"Body check passed, identity verification successful!"
"Ye Fan, at the Wandao School\'s White Cloud Academy, a True Monarch in service!"
"Yuan Spirit Cultivation: Nascent Soul Realm, Taoism Cultivation: Yang God Realm!"
"Based on your Cultivation Realm, you can enter up to the seventh layer of the Demon-locking Tower!"
Facing the prompt given by the Demon-locking Tower, Ye Fan did not say much and directly spoke, "Enter the seventh layer."
As soon as the words fell, a flash of White Jade immortal light whisked away the scenery before his eyes.
Moments later, his vision restored, and he had arrived in a vast hall built with white jade.
"Welcome to the seventh layer of the Demon-locking Tower!"
"The Demon Objects in this layer are quite powerful; it is not recommended to act alone."
The Demon-locking Tower\'s prompt came again.
Ye Fan paid no heed and made his way to a certain location, as if it were familiar territory.
Soon, he reached an empty array node, and a message from the Artifact Spirit transmitted some information.
A moment later...
"Boom!"
A White Jade immortal light shone brightly, revealing a giant shadow that thunderously landed on the array node.
It was none other than a hundred zhang tall Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor!
As the Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor touched down, various streams of White Light fell upon the Mech, causing ribbons of dark energy to steam forth.
"Demonic Qi erosion rate fifteen percent!"
"Mecha wear rate eighteen percent!"
"Commence Mecha maintenance, consuming one hundred and fifty academic credits."
The prompt sounded, and with White Jade Light illuminating, streams of Demonic Qi rose up. One after another, Magic Artifacts were disassembled, components replaced, and the Mech\'s body was maintained...
Soon, a brand-new Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor stood before Ye Fan.
It was only then that the Mech Armor opened, and a figure descended.
"Yin Lin, you\'ve finally come out of seclusion, you\'ve made me wait for quite some time!"
The newcomer burst into hearty laughter, calling out a personal nickname, revealing himself to be True Monarch Nanyun, Ye Fan\'s close friend, and a fellow Nascent Soul Cultivator.
Ye Fan smiled. "You, True Monarch Nanyun, are on the verge of advancing to the Realm of Divinity Transformation. With the Supreme Grade Spiritual Treasure \'Heavenly Mechanism Thunder Flame\' forming your Ten Million Artifacts Level Mech Armor, the Demon Objects of the seventh layer of the Demon-locking Tower, no matter how powerful, couldn\'t possibly trouble you, right?"
"Ah, you\'ve been in seclusion too long and are out of the loop!"
Nanyun shook his head. "Recently, the Taoist Master has opened the ninth layer of the Demon-locking Tower, touching upon the crux of the Map of the Blood Sea, causing an uproar that opened the Sea of Blood Gate. It released not only several Asura Demon Generals from the Return to Void Realm but also an Integration Great Demon from another realm who intervened."
"Although in the end, the Integration Great Demon was blasted back by the Five Elements Divine Thunder from the White Jade Capital, some Demonic Qi still leaked out, causing the Demon Objects on several layers of the Demon-locking Tower to go berserk. And not just us Nascent Souls, even seniors in the Deity-Transformation Realm find them quite troublesome to deal with."
"Is that so?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan was also surprised.
Eight hundred years ago, after the Taoist Master had obtained the Mysterious Heaven Legacy and crafted the Five Elements Sealing Heaven Demon-Locking Tower, he gathered various materials and forged two more such Immortal Artifacts.
Thus, three Five Elements Sealing Heaven Demon-Locking Towers each suppressed a top-tier Demon Artifact, extracting their origins to transform into various Demon Objects sealed within the towers, which the Cultivators from all sides would kill to whittle down the power of these three major Demon Artifacts.
Therefore, the main battlefield between the Wandao School and the Lust Realm Demon was these three great Demon-locking Towers.
Nascent Soul Cultivators like him bore an inescapable responsibility, having to enter the Demon-locking Tower to kill a certain number of Demon Objects and fulfill their duty periodically.
The Demon-locking Tower had nine layers, each more perilous than the last, with Nascent Souls mainly fighting on the seventh layer, Divinity Transformations on the eighth, and as for the ninth layer that had only recently been opened, he didn\'t know much about it.
Although he had become a Nascent Soul Cultivator and had been granted the title of True Monarch after passing the professional title examination, the development of the Wandao School was so rapid that even he, a True Monarch, found it unfathomable and couldn\'t grasp everything.
Besides the Taoist Master, probably no second person fully understood the potential strength of the Wandao School.
But Ye Fan didn\'t dwell too much on this. Everyone has their role to play, and as a Nascent Soul Cultivator, there was no use fussing over the problems of the ninth layer of the Demon-locking Tower.
It was best to deal with the current matters that belonged to him.
Ye Fan smiled, "Call Cang Lan over, the three of us can go together. It\'s just the right opportunity for you guys to see what I\'ve gained from my recent seclusion."
"Oh?"
Nanyun glanced at him. "It seems you\'ve made quite some progress during your seclusion?"
"I wouldn\'t say a lot, just a little advancement," Ye Fan shook his head and sighed, "My talents are limited, breaking through the Divinity Transformation barrier is difficult. It looks like in a few years, I\'ll have to take up my post at the Yin Mountain Mansion."
"..."
Upon hearing these words, Nanyun remained silent.
With the merging of two realms, the revival of Yuan Spirits, and the discovery of ancient relics, coupled with the numerous methods available today, the Wandao School was now capable of cultivating Divinity Transformation and even Return to Void Grand Cultivators.
But, as always, cultivation depends on talent.
Even with the substantial resources of the Wandao School, they couldn\'t invest without limit in any one person.
The school\'s support was just one part; Cultivators themselves had to strive hard if they hoped to reach higher realms.
Ye Fan had been working very hard, but due to his limited talents, the challenge of surpassing the Divinity Transformation barrier remained daunting.
Nanyun was helpless in this regard and could only pat his shoulder, "The opening of the ninth layer of the Demon-locking Tower is a great opportunity. As long as we fight hard, there\'s no saying there\'s no hope."
Yet, Ye Fan was quite open-minded and laughed lightly, "Of course, no matter what, I will exchange for some Primordial Spirit Liquid and give it a try. Even if it doesn\'t work out, if I go to the Governors, I will have no regrets in this life!"
