258 Break through the fifth floor of the foundation building and encounter a new limit!
On the fourth floor of the Demon-Slaying Tower, the light hung motionless, and there was no hope that the light would disappear.
Time flies, half a year has passed in a flash.
"Is there something wrong with the formation of the Demon-Slaying Tower?"
"This Demon-Slaying Tower was built by ancient monks. It has endured thousands of years of wind and rain. It has been in disrepair for a long time, and it is normal to have some minor problems. I heard those monks who have studied formations deeply say that no matter how powerful the formation is,
There will also be an expiration date, and various minor problems will gradually appear."
"That's right, there is no one in the tower at all! Who has the ability to stay on the fourth floor of the tower for more than half a year?"
In Wangtian City's teahouses, restaurants, Xianlou Ling Pavilion, and the monks at the bottom, there is a theory that has been spread among the lower-level monks, and it has gradually begun to be accepted by everyone. This theory has no obvious loopholes, and can perfectly explain why the light stays on the tower for a long time.
No matter how sensational an incident is, it will slowly fall into silence after half a year.
The storm gradually subsided, and the lives of the monks in the city were not disturbed too much. They were refining elixirs and refining weapons in the city, hunting in the Yunze Mountains, and running business. They continued to do whatever they should do.
...
On the fourth floor of the Demon-Slaying Tower, in the stone chamber formation space.
A figure as fast as light smoke was erratic in the stone room. He was constantly releasing spells in his hand, fighting a fifth-level phantom beast and gaining experience in fighting the phantom beast.
Every time he takes a shot, the spell range can cover almost one-tenth of the stone chamber space, making it extremely difficult for the phantom monster to escape from his large-scale spell bombardment.
With only a quarter of a stick of incense, the fifth-level phantom beast was shattered and transformed by the fierce bombardment of spells.
"A quarter of a stick of incense!"
"It originally took half a stick of incense to kill a fifth-level monster, but now it only takes a quarter of a stick. The time to cast a spell has been compressed to the limit, and the power of the spell has also been enhanced to the limit!"
Ye Chen's heart was calm.
Day after day, I no longer know how many phantom beasts I have killed, and I have become extremely proficient in casting eight intermediate-level spells.
He has also become more and more familiar with various phantom beasts, and can predict almost every move they make and launch attacks in advance. Under such circumstances, killing a fifth-level phantom beast becomes faster and faster.
Unfortunately, the power of his eight mid-level spells has been cultivated to the limit, and the casting time has also reached the shortest limit.
Any kind of combat skills and spells have their own limits of power and cannot be infinitely improved.
Intermediate combat skills and intermediate spells have lower limits.
Under normal circumstances, a monk needs to practice for ten years or dozens of years according to his spiritual root qualifications before he can practice an intermediate spell to the limit. Therefore, a young monk in the foundation building stage who is decades old can generally only practice
Master one to two or three intermediate-level spells. If you learn too much, it is easy to learn but not master.
Ye Chen practiced crazily day and night in the Demon-Slaying Tower, and it only took him half a year to reach this limit. And it was eight intermediate spells.
Practicing in this tower is extremely efficient in increasing the power of spells. The spiritual energy in the Demon-Slaying Tower is so strong that just on the fourth floor of the tower, it is forty times that of the outside world. There are endless phantom monsters for the monks to use to fight.
And practice. This is why the Demon-Slaying Tower, a special place that is very suitable for practicing spells, has such a magical effect.
The monks practicing magic in the Demon-Slaying Tower for an hour is almost equivalent to one or two days of practicing outside. The other monks are trying their best to stay in the tower for a few more hours. Unfortunately, they cannot do so.
After staying for another ten or twenty hours, I was forced to leave the tower.
That is, Ye Chen has dozens of fourth-level fire crows in the Immortal Mansion. With the power of these fire crows, he can stay in the Demon-Slaying Tower for a long time. His spell practice in the past six months is almost as good as one or two.
The effect of ten years. If it were outside, it would probably take Ye Chen ten or twenty years to practice these intermediate spells to perfection.
The power of Ye Chen's eight intermediate-level spells has been increased to the limit. If he continues to stay in the tower, there is no way to continue to improve unless he learns other new spells.
However, Ye Chen was not in a hurry to leave the tower and stayed in the tower to continue cultivating his soul.
There is plenty of spiritual energy in the Demon-Slaying Tower. It is actually very suitable for cultivating the soul. However, there are endless phantom monsters appearing in the Demon-Slaying Tower. It is difficult for ordinary monks to meditate and cultivate the soul in the Demon-Slaying Tower. But for Ye Chen,
Not a big problem.
After Ye Chen killed the phantom beast, he immediately released five fire crows to continue to fight with the new phantom beast that came out of the tower.
He then sat cross-legged in the lotus throne.
Take out a sixth-order ice-quenching vitality pill from the storage bag and take it.
Movement and refining. A flow of vitality with a cold breath flowed through the meridians in his body. The stream gradually grew stronger and surged, and there was a faint roaring sound. His flesh, blood, bones, and meridians were flowing in this stream.
The slight tremor driven by the vitality flow continued to intensify day after day.
The whole person is steaming with a dense cloud of spiritual energy in the lotus. Even the pores of the skin are permeated with spiritual energy, undergoing subtle transformation.
His skin even had a faint glow, and was as tough as iron. Ordinary swords could not hurt him at all, only magic weapons such as flying swords could hurt him.
Ye Chen has stayed at the perfection level of the fourth floor of the foundation for more than a month. He has encountered a small bottleneck and has been unable to break through. During this time, he is sprinting with all his strength.
It takes nearly half an hour to refine and absorb a sixth-level vitality pill.
He then took the second ice-tempering vitality pill...and the third ice-tempering vitality pill.
"boom!"
Suddenly, Ye Chen's body trembled violently.
"Fifth floor of the foundation phase!"
"Breakthrough!"
Ye Chen was overjoyed.
His gaseous soul suddenly expanded and contracted sharply, instantly breaking through the thin invisible shackles. His gaseous soul became thicker and thicker, waiting to be completely condensed into a liquid, which was what he formed into a golden elixir.
Time. However, it is still early to reach the golden elixir realm.
Ye Chen's current goal is to reach the peak of the ninth level of foundation building.
These six months of hard work finally paid off.
In just half a year, he moved from the fourth level of foundation building to the fifth level of foundation building.
This kind of cultivation speed is quite astonishing, and it is probably only a handful among the entire younger generation of Tianxu Sect disciples.
"The eight intermediate-level spells have been cultivated to the limit, and today they have broken through the fifth level of foundation building. The 50,000 spiritual stones in the Immortal Mansion have been exhausted, and there is no use in staying in the tower. It's time to go out!"
Ye Chen thought to himself.
Calculating the time, this is the sixth month since he entered the fourth floor of the Demon-Slaying Tower.
During the day and night practice, it seemed like a blink of an eye.
However, no matter how dull Ye Chen is, he still knows that if he walks out of the tower like this, he may immediately cause an uproar in Wangtian City.
After all, he stayed in the tower for an unbelievably long time. Ordinary monks would stay in the tower in hours, but he would stay in the tower in months. If he walked out like this, it would be very difficult.
Nothing serious will happen.
Even if the Foundation Establishment monks didn't dare to do anything to him, the Jindan seniors from the major immortal sects would still come to him and ask what was going on. To see if there was something wrong with the Demon-Slaying Tower or if he had mastered some secret method.
After all, being able to stay in the Demon-Slaying Tower for a long time is of great benefit to our disciples, and no immortal sect would not be jealous.
In order to avoid causing shock, Ye Chen had already thought of countermeasures.
Tomorrow is the first day of the month, and the gate of the Demon-Slaying Tower will open. At this time, a large number of monks will enter and exit the tower.
"Go out tomorrow! Bring back some spiritual stones and look for more powerful combat techniques and spells."
Ye Chen thought to himself.
Although he was extremely satisfied with the results of his cultivation over the past six months, he was also very aware that he had reached a limit.
To put it bluntly, he is now in an embarrassing state of being unable to achieve a high level or a low level.
He has mastered eight mid-level spells, which is enough to easily deal with mid-level foundation-building monks.
But these alone are not enough to compete with those peak ninth-level foundation-building monks. Those peak-level ninth-level foundation monks come from wealthy cultivating families and practice the most advanced techniques. They are all terrifyingly powerful.
Not to mention others, take Liu Hongdan, the little demon girl from the Feng Mo Sect who he once fought with. The little demon girl has extremely weird skills. She is a monk of both wind and fire elements. She has the fastest speed of the wind element and the fastest and most violent attacks of the fire element.
In a battle of spells with the little demon girl, I'm afraid that if his eight spells fail to exert their power, he will be in trouble.
If Ye Chen didn't use the fire crows in the Immortal Mansion, he wouldn't be sure to win in a fight with this little demon girl.
Four and a half years later, in the joint examination of the Nine Great Immortal Sects, the Tianxu Sect will send five disciples from the ninth level of Foundation Establishment to participate in the joint examination. Each one must be the most outstanding person, and his cultivation and combat prowess are absolutely top-notch candidates.
Qualifying for one of these five places is not easy to obtain.
When taking the joint examination of the Nine Immortal Sects, he will definitely not be able to take out the fire crows in his Immortal Mansion.
Relying on the current eight mid-level spells alone is not enough. He also needs top-level methods to deliver a fatal blow.
The only things Ye Chen had in his hands were the "Lotus Code", an ancient code, and the "Element Devouring Code", the demon sect's gate-holding code.
It's a pity that some combat skills in the "Lotus Code" require very high-level cultivation to be effective. Low-level cultivation will not show the effect. The "Element Devouring Code" is also very powerful, but it has many disadvantages. He still dare not use it easily.
Take risks to learn.
...
The next day, early morning.
In Wangtian City, there are a lot of monks in the Demon-Slaying Tower Square.
As lively as ever.
The crowd of excited monks pointed and commented.
The tower door opened, and many monks rushed into the tower to practice. A large amount of light appeared on the body of the Demon-Slaying Tower.
After an hour or two, many monks began to be forced out of the tower one after another.
Some of these monks were unwilling to be kicked out of the tower so quickly. They cursed the monster and said it was too strong. They regretted that they had made a small mistake when they attacked, but there was nothing they could do about it. Who said they were not strong enough?
At this time, Ye Chen's figure appeared in front of the tower gate. With a dejected expression, he handed back the demon-slaying token to the tower guard and quickly blended into the crowd of monks.
There are so many monks with expressions like his, so naturally no one will pay much attention to them.
"Senior Brother Ye!"
A surprised cry stopped him.
Ye Chen was puzzled. He looked back and saw his fellow junior Wei Ming coming out of the tower and waving excitedly to him.
