Chapter 284

Entering the Soul Curse Tower

Zhuo Wen's eyes flickered as he watched Su Yang and Su Qi enter the Spirit Spell Tower. He took a step forward and shot towards the Spirit Spell Tower like a bolt of lightning.

When he was still ten miles away from the Soul Curse Tower, Zhuowen's figure came to a halt as he was blocked by a transparent restriction. For a moment, transparent ripples appeared in front of him.

"What a powerful restrictive power."

Zhuowen's face couldn't help but be surprised as he touched the restriction in front of him. "It's just as Master Ku Ya said. Only an Ultimate Emperor Realm expert can forcefully break through a restriction like this. It's impossible for them to break through it. Looks like I'll need a Seal Crystal to do so."

As he spoke, Zhuo Wen took out the Seal Breaking Crystal from his bosom and poured his Yuan Energy into the crystal. Instantly, a powerful energy fluctuation burst out from the crystal.

What surprised Zhuowen was that when the ripple of energy approached the restriction in front of him, it was like the most corrosive acid. A hole as tall as a person instantly appeared in the restriction.

Without any hesitation, Zhuowen took a step forward and charged into the hole. After passing through the restriction, Zhuowen arrived in front of the Soul Curse Tower.

The Soul Curse Tower had a total of nine floors. Every floor was dozens of meters tall. Mental Energy flowed on the surface of the tower like colorful streams of light, emitting a colorful glow.

The door to the first floor was ten meters tall. It was wide open on both sides. At a glance, the inside of the door was pitch black, making it look rather eerie and strange.

Zhuowen stood in front of the door and quietly stared at the majestic Soul Curse Tower. His heart was filled with shock. From Master Ku Ya's introduction, the Soul Curse Tower was actually built purely from the interweaving of Mental Energy. Just how much Mental Energy would be required to build such a majestic Soul Curse Tower?

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

An ear-piercing sound immediately rang out beside Zhuo Wen. Numerous figures passed by Zhuo Wen, impatiently rushing through the door. Clearly, these participants could no longer contain the excitement in their hearts. They wanted to see the splendor of the Soul Curse Tower.

"It's said that the Soul Curse Tower is a strange treasure created by countless arcanist ancestors in Broken Rock City. The Mental Energy of this treasure is so enormous that it's not weaker than the legendary Fifth Grade Arcana Master."

Zhuo Wen's eyes were filled with fanaticism as he muttered to himself. He had only heard of the existence of a Grade Five Arcana Master in legends. It was said that even the ruler of the Qing Xuan Empire, the Qing Emperor, did not dare to slight an Arcana Master of such strength.

However, grade-0 arcanists were too rare. Even the president of Broken Rock City's Arcane Guild, Master Ku Ya, was only at the peak of the Lesser Success of grade-9. Moreover, Master Ku Ya had been stuck at the Lesser Success of grade-9 for more than ten years without any progress. It could be seen how difficult it was to advance one's mental strength after reaching grade-9.

"Let's go in!

Kid, the Soul Curse Tower is indeed a good thing. It gathers the Mental Energy of countless arcanists and has the effect of increasing one's perception.

Furthermore, I can sense that there are many hidden benefits within the Spirit Curse Tower. "

Blacky's excited voice immediately sounded in Zhuo Wen's mind. Hearing this, Zhuo Wen nodded slightly and took a step into the door.

Once he entered, Zhuowen suddenly felt a strong Mental Energy pressure rush towards him. It instantly enveloped him. Zhuowen couldn't help but feel his body sink and his knees bend slightly.

"As expected of the Soul Curse Tower. The Mental Energy pressure on the first floor is actually not weaker than that of an Initial Grade Two Arcana Master. If an Initial Grade Two Arcana Master were to enter the first floor, they would probably have a hard time!"

With a shake of his shoulders, the Yuan Power in his body erupted and easily dispelled the Mental Energy pressure on his body.

The first floor wasn't very big. It was about the size of Vine Armor City's God's Stone Plaza. There weren't many people on the first floor. Only a few figures were walking slowly and unsteadily. It was obvious that they were the weakest among those who entered the Soul Curse Tower this time. Their strength was around the Initial Grade Two Arcana Master.

In the center of the first floor was a flight of steps made of limestone. The steps led to the second floor.

Zhuowen took a step forward and quickly walked towards the center of the steps. Under the envious gazes of the unsteady figures, Zhuowen arrived in front of the steps. There wasn't a trace of fatigue or burden on his face.

When he arrived in front of the steps, Zhuowen discovered that the steps were actually formed by the interweaving of pure Mental Energy. The surface of the steps flickered with a golden light and overflowed with colorful lights. It gave off a somewhat unreal feeling. Moreover, the Mental Energy pressure on the steps was much denser than the other places.

"It seems that the Soul Curse Tower's Mental Energy pressure is mainly on the steps. I'm afraid this is the Soul Curse Tower's test!

If I can cross it, I will successfully enter the next floor. If I can't, I will be eliminated. "

After glancing at the steps, Zhuowen took a step forward and directly stepped onto the steps. In an instant, the countless amounts of Mental Energy on the steps were like compressed air as they continuously converged on Zhuowen's body. The terrifying power it produced was almost enough to cause the air to explode.

With a cold snort, Zhuowen slightly shifted his shoulders. The Yuan Power in his body surged out and formed a thin layer of Yuan Power on the surface of his body. The Mental Energy that was like a tidal wave was immediately blocked by the Yuan Power on the surface of Zhuowen's body.

Thud thud thud!

In the blink of an eye, Zhuowen stepped onto the steps and disappeared at the end of the first floor …

On the first floor, the few Arcana Masters who were walking unsteadily stared blankly at the youth who had easily stepped onto the steps.

"That must be Zhuowen. The youth who refined the perfect seal crystal and suppressed Su Yang in the second round?"

"Sigh!

He's quite a bit younger than us, but his Mental Energy cultivation is far above ours!

However, when I saw Zhuowen step onto the steps, why didn't I sense any Mental Energy being released from him? "

"That's right!

I didn't sense any Mental Energy undulations from Zhuowen's body either. Instead, a layer of Yuan Power appeared on the surface of his body and easily blocked the Mental Energy pressure from the steps. "

At this point, the few Arcana Masters were suddenly shocked as if they had thought of something. They couldn't help but look at each other and exclaim, "The Yuan Power on the surface of Zhuowen's body is actually Yuan Power. He actually used Yuan Power to block the Mental Energy pressure from the steps. Doesn't this mean that his martial arts realm isn't weak at all …"

After entering the second floor, Zhuowen discovered that there were a lot more people on the second floor than on the first floor. Moreover, the Mental Energy pressure on the second floor was many times stronger than on the first floor. It should have reached the level of advanced grade-7 Arcana Masters.

Those who were still lingering on the second floor were basically advanced grade-7 Arcana Masters. Perhaps they would have an easier time on the first floor, but it would be much more difficult on the second floor. This was because the Mental Energy pressure on the second floor was no weaker than that of an advanced grade-7 Arcana Master.

Upon reaching the second floor, Zhuowen could clearly feel that the Mental Energy pressure on the second floor was much stronger and purer than on the first floor. Moreover, Zhuowen was delighted to discover that other than the Mental Energy pressure that was constantly pressing down on him, there was also a trace of strange and refreshing energy on the second floor.

This trace of strange energy was like a scanning lens. It passed through the surface of Zhuowen's body and seeped into the Niwan Palace between his eyebrows. A refreshing and refreshing feeling suddenly rose in Zhuowen's mind. It was as if he had suddenly taken a cold shower on an extremely hot summer day. It was extremely refreshing.

"This energy …" Silently feeling the refreshing energy in his mind, Zhuowen squinted his eyes and muttered to himself in pleasant surprise.

"Hehe!

This is the most precious benefit of this Spirit Curse Tower. It contains the comprehension of countless Arcana Masters. This thing can greatly increase your comprehension ability and allow you to break through the shackles in front of you as soon as possible. "Xiao Hei's voice sounded in a timely manner.

Silently feeling the refreshing energy and the refreshing feeling that seeped into his body, Zhuowen could also clearly feel that his mind's thoughts were much lighter than before. Clearly, this was a benefit brought about by the Mental Energy.

However, this feeling was not very strong. Clearly, the Mental Energy on the second floor was not very strong. After all, the Mental Energy on the second floor was only at the level of advanced grade-7 Arcana Masters. The amount of Mental Energy it could provide was definitely not much.

"With my Mental Energy of advanced grade-8 Arcana Masters, the amount of Mental Energy that the Mental Energy on the second floor can provide is probably too little for me." Zhuowen lowered his head and muttered to himself in thought.

"The Mental Energy on the first floor of the Spirit Curse Tower is at the level of advanced grade-7 Arcana Masters, while the second floor is at the level of advanced grade-7 Arcana Masters. I'm afraid that only the Mental Energy on the fifth floor will be able to obstruct you to a certain extent. The Mental Energy on the fifth floor is not weaker than that of an advanced grade-8 Arcana Master. The Mental Energy on the fifth floor will most likely be of great help to you."

Xiao Hei's voice sounded in his mind once again as she analyzed the situation in a clear and logical manner.

"Mm!

You're right.

However, according to the pattern you've described, wouldn't the Mental Energy on the eighth floor be at the level of grade-9 Arcana Masters? That level of Mental Energy is something that even I, as an advanced grade-8 Arcana Master, would find difficult to endure! "Suddenly thinking of something, Zhuowen suddenly exclaimed in a low voice.

"Hmph!

It's just Mental Energy. It's not like a Level 9 Arcana Master has personally descended. I'm afraid the Mental Energy on the eighth floor isn't that frightening. However, it shouldn't be something that an ordinary grade-8 Arcana Master can endure.

However, you have quite a few trump cards on you. Entering the seventh floor shouldn't be a problem. As for the eighth floor, it's a bit of a stretch. "

Xiao Hei's voice also revealed a trace of helplessness in his mind. Clearly, the difficulty of the Spirit Curse Tower had exceeded her expectations.
