Chapter 1068

Arcane Tower

A group of seven people slowly walked through the path that was separated by the crowd. At the end of the square, the upper echelons of the Outer Academy, led by the Outer Academy headmaster, were already standing there, preparing to welcome these seven people.

After the seven people arrived in front of the Outer Academy headmaster, they exchanged some greetings. Then, they gradually disappeared at the end of the square under the envious gazes of many people. Clearly, the Outer Academy headmaster and these people from the Inner Academy intended to discuss some important matters.

"I have long heard that the Inner Academy would come to the Outer Academy to select some geniuses to join the Inner Academy as in-name disciples. Originally, I thought that this was just a rumor. It is unexpected that it is actually true."

"Since there is such a rumor, it is definitely not baseless. Although the Inner Academy only recruits in-name disciples with the lowest status in the Inner Academy, being able to enter the Inner Academy to train is something that many Outer Academy disciples yearn for."

"That's right!

It is said that the Inner Academy has specialized high rank Di experts as lecturers. He can help you solve your cultivation problems and save us a lot of trouble. Therefore, almost seventy percent of the in-name disciples who enter the Inner Academy will successfully advance to Di Power and become official disciples of the Inner Academy. "

Discussions continuously sounded from the surroundings. Their voices were filled with envy and yearning. The disciples who joined the Outer Academy had heard of the famous Inner Academy and had yearned for it for a long time.

Zhuowen, who was standing in the crowd, narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that Bei Xuan was right. These seven people from the Inner Academy might really be here to recruit in-name disciples.

However, he did not know when these people from the Inner Academy would announce the recruitment of in-name disciples. After all, from the discussions of the surrounding people, he could tell that the recruitment of in-name disciples was not so simple.

"Enter the Inner Academy in advance?"

Zhuowen's eyes revealed a trace of hope as he clenched his hands together. This was because there was another person waiting for him there. That beautiful figure, which he could not let go of for a long time, constantly lingered in his mind.

Therefore, Zhuowen must obtain this opportunity. However, he also knew that he must obtain the Thousand Layered Stone before entering the Inner Academy. After which, he must use the Thousand Layered Stone to merge the nine types of Earth Flames into a Heavenly Flame. Only then would he be able to expel the cold Qi in Mu Chenxue's body after meeting her.

"Next, I need to find an opportunity to enter the Arcana Tower. Once I'm able to meet Mu Feng, things will be much easier."

Zhuowen raised his head slightly as he spoke. His deep eyes landed on the Arcane Tower nearby, which was covered in countless runes, as a trace of determination flowed out of his eyes.

"Let's go to the Arcana Tower and ask about how to join the Arcana Tower."

Zhuowen muttered to himself as he walked towards the Arcana Tower. He had been in the outer courtyard for two months, but he still hadn't entered the Arcana Tower.

The structure of the arcane tower was similar to that of the cultivation tower. There was also a rather large plaza in front of the tower, but this plaza was much quieter than the one in front of the cultivation tower. Moreover, most of the people walking around the plaza were arcanists wearing long robes.

Zhuowen's arrival caused quite a few arcanists to be surprised, but they didn't say anything. Even though this place was within the boundaries of the Arcana Tower, the Arcana Tower was a part of the outer courtyard in the first place. On the surface, they didn't prohibit other students from entering.

Zhuowen saw quite a few arcanists setting up stalls in the large plaza. The stalls were selling Yuan Crystals, low level Yuan Arrays, as well as some materials needed to refine Yuan Arrays. There were even some Secret Spirit Techniques. There was a dazzling array of items, and there was a great variety of them.

Zhuowen casually swept his gaze over these stalls, clearly lacking in interest. This was because the Yuan Arrays on the stalls weren't very high level. Most of them were grade three Yuan Arrays, with the occasional grade four Yuan Array. As for grade five Yuan Arrays, there wasn't a single one.

The Greater Infinity Sword Array in Zhuowen's possession was a grade five Yuan Array, so he was naturally not interested in any Yuan Arrays below grade five. However, he also knew that grade five Yuan Arrays were usually life-saving treasures for arcanists. Even if they had one on them, they wouldn't put it on display for sale.

However, Zhuowen did see quite a few decent Yuan Array materials at some of the stalls.

"Eh?

Icesilver Flower? "

Zhuowen let out a soft cry of surprise and immediately stopped in front of a stall. The owner of this stall was a young man around twenty-three years old. He wore a long yellow robe, and there were three vertical lines on the chest of his robe, indicating that he was a grade three arcanist.

"Brother, are you interested in buying this Icesilver Flower?"

The yellow-robed young man's eyes lit up when he saw Zhuowen stop in front of his stall, and he immediately smiled with some joy. However, what puzzled him was that Zhuowen was wearing the outer courtyard uniform and not in the attire of an arcanist. So why had this person come to the plaza of the Arcana Tower?

"How much is this Icesilver Flower?"

Zhuowen nodded. In the past half a year, he had been studying Yuan Arrays. From his initial superficial understanding to now, he had become somewhat proficient. Originally, he could only refine grade three Yuan Arrays, but now, he was completely familiar with grade four Yuan Arrays. He could even barely refine grade five Yuan Arrays.

Last time, Zhuowen had tried to refine a grade five Yuan Array, the Ice Profound Array, and had failed many times. However, he had also learned a lot from his experience. Later on, he discovered that the Yuan Array lacked a plant like the Icesilver Flower, which was extremely cold and yin. However, he was still in the cultivation room at that time, so he didn't exchange for it with task points.

When he came out, he had basically forgotten about this matter. Now that he had come to the plaza of the Arcana Tower and suddenly saw the Icesilver Flower, he remembered that he had failed to refine the Ice Profound Array, which was why he had such an intense reaction and stopped.

Seeing that Zhuowen had the intention to buy it, the yellow-robed young man's eyes flashed and he said quite enthusiastically, "This Icesilver Flower grows on the peak of the Long Han Mountain in the extreme north of Excellent Spirit Island. It is a very rare medicinal herb …"

The yellow-robed youth was very enthusiastic in his speech. He was full of praises for the Silver Ice Flower. It was as if this flower was something that only existed in the heavens and could only be found in the mortal world. However, Zhuo Wen silently watched the yellow-robed youth's boastful speech. Eventually, the yellow-robed youth couldn't continue his speech.

"How about this!

I won't give a random price. One thousand contribution points, this price isn't considered expensive, right? "Finally, the yellow-robed young man asked tentatively.

"It's indeed not expensive. I want all ten Icesilver Flowers in your stall."

Zhuowen nodded. With a stroke of his right hand, he put the ten Icesilver Flowers in the yellow-robed young man's stall into his spirit ring. Then, he put ten thousand contribution points into the yellow-robed young man's contribution counter.

"You actually want all of them?"

The yellow-robed young man was stunned at first. Then, he saw the ten thousand contribution points that had suddenly appeared on the counter on his wrist. A look of excitement immediately appeared on his face.

His stall's business wasn't very good. He would be very satisfied if he could earn five or six hundred contribution points a day, but now, because of Zhuowen, he had earned ten thousand contribution points all of a sudden. Even after deducting the cost, he still made about half of the profit. The yellow-robed young man was naturally overjoyed. No matter how he looked at Zhuowen, he had a good impression of him.

After buying the Icesilver Flowers, Zhuowen didn't leave. Instead, he said to the yellow-robed young man in a low voice, "Brother, my name is Zhuowen. I would like to ask, how can I successfully join the Arcana Tower?"

Because of Zhuowen, his income had increased explosively today. The yellow-robed young man naturally didn't hide anything from Zhuowen.

"So it's Little Brother Zhuo. You can call me Huang Can!

From the looks of it, Little Brother Zhuo shouldn't be an arcanist of our Arcana Tower yet. Since you plan on joining our Arcana Tower, then you should also have a talent for Spiritual Energy, right? "Huang Can smiled rather warmly.

Zhuowen nodded and smiled, "I do have some talent for Spiritual Energy. That's why I've come to the Arcana Tower to ask about it. I hope you can enlighten me."

Huang Can chuckled and then said in a low voice, "The Arcana Tower has seven floors. Each floor represents a grade one arcanist. The first floor is where grade one arcanists are active, the second floor is for grade two arcanists, and the seventh floor is where the master of the Arcana Tower, Master Mu Feng, lives. It's said that many of Master Mu Feng's creations are displayed there, and there are even grade seven origin arrays among them."

"As for if you want to join the Arcana Tower, it's actually quite simple. You just have to enter the first floor and undergo the corresponding Spiritual Energy test and the creation of the origin arrays. As long as the examiner thinks you pass, then you can successfully become a member of the Arcana Tower."

Hearing this, Zhuowen understood what Huang Can meant. It seemed that joining the Arcana Tower wasn't as difficult as he had thought. As long as he passed the test, he could become a member of the Arcana Tower.

"Also, the robes of the arcanists in the Arcana Tower are divided into different grades. From low to high, they are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple. Because I'm a grade three arcanist, I'm wearing a yellow robe. In the entire Arcana Tower, the only person who can wear a purple robe is Master Mu Feng."

Huang Can's eyes were filled with admiration when he spoke of Mu Feng. After all, Mu Feng was the great person who had founded the Arcana Tower. Moreover, he was an important figure in the entire outer courtyard. Even the headmaster of the outer courtyard treated Mu Feng with respect. It was clear just how high Mu Feng's status in the outer courtyard was.

"Brother Zhuo!

I see that this is your first time in the Arcana Tower. Let me show you around the Arcana Tower and take you to the test. If you pass, then you can successfully join the Arcana Tower. At that time, we'll be fellow disciples of the same sect. "

Huang Can acted as if he was very familiar with the place. With a wave of his sleeve, he stored all the items on the stall into his spirit ring. Then, he led Zhuowen towards the Arcana Tower.

Zhuowen was startled, but he didn't say anything. He only silently followed behind Huang Can. After all, this was his first time in the Arcana Tower. He really did need someone to show him around the Arcana Tower.

After entering the Arcana Tower, Zhuowen discovered that the space inside the Arcana Tower was actually much larger than the Cultivation Tower. However, from the outside, the Arcana Tower and the Cultivation Tower were actually the same size. Why was the space inside so large?
