Chapter 10: The Shoulder Pole

Her actions undoubtedly pushed the already agitated crowd to yet another peak. The crowd, which was already stirred up because of Chen Xi, immediately became even more fervent. They fell into a frenzy, an emotion that could not be described in words. They shouted wildly, waving their arms.

However, practitioners from humble backgrounds, upon being fortunate enough to enter a certain sect for cultivation and reaching the Breaking Void stage, generally select from the items provided by the sect. Most of these items are of inferior quality, and only disciples with genuine potential receive substantial support and training from the sect

Before entering, Chen Xi couldn't help but wonder what lay beyond the five-story tower if it was indeed the final place of cultivation

Chen Xi lay on the ground, still tightly gripping his old carrying pole. It must be said that this pole filled Chen Xi with astonishment. He never expected that the worn-out carrying pole he had used to fetch water for over three hundred days was actually a treasure. At that time, the pole was leaning against the wall in a dilapidated courtyard on the mountain, and when Chen Xi saw it, he even worried that it would break if he couldn't lift two buckets of water.

Zhou Jiu raised his head and laughed heartily, exuding a wild and unrestrained spirit

Those who are capable of cultivation understand that only by entering the realm of breaking the void can one truly be considered a cultivator. The distinction between cultivators and ordinary martial practitioners lies precisely in the awakening that occurs after breaking the void. The strongest ordinary martial practitioners in the world can achieve a strength equivalent to the ninth rank of foundational establishment through relentless training.

I want to meet him

Chen Xi smiled, for he thought of the future... Walking the rivers and lakes with a shoulder pole in hand to confront others, he feared that any opponent who saw his true self would surely burst into laughter

Life, indeed, is quite interesting

Su Xiaosu finally realized it, but it was already too late to stop it

Liu Xichen stepped into the Fortune Tower: "I suddenly want to see how many levels I can reach myself"

Such a powerful healing effect can already be referred to as a divine object. It is important to note that this is merely the third level of the tower; one can only imagine that at the fourth level and even higher, there will be even more wondrous things present.

For example, Ding Mei, who has broken through the Void Realm, although it is unknown which rank he is at, is already capable of serving as an instructor for Class A. The thirty-six disciples of Class A combined would likely be unable to withstand a single strike from Ding Mei's full force

Chen Xi entered the portal with questions in mind

Chen Xi chose to enter through a door close to the steps in the three-story tower, where there are only four doors available for entry. If this pattern continues, then the four-story tower would have only two doors for entry. As for the five-story tower, does it have one door or none? However, according to this rule, the six-story tower certainly has no doors.

While receiving the treatment of the milky white light, Chen Xi tilted his head to look at the yoke in his hand. It was unclear what type of wood it was made from, but it was already covered with fine cracks. Perhaps due to prolonged exposure to sunlight, the surface of the yoke was very rough. Therefore, at the beginning, Chen Xi's shoulders endured quite a bit of hardship

Chen Xi even suspected whether the milky-white orb above his head might be one of the Nine-Colored Stones

As the dean of a college, he has not laughed so freely for many years

A carrying pole

... ...

Once a person enters the Tower of Fate, they cannot turn back.

because he has already left those people behind in a world so far away

Chen Xi gasped violently, as if he were a broken zombie that had just emerged from underground after a thousand years without the scent of air, greedily inhaling the air in large gulps. His lower body was gone, yet the remnants of flesh lay scattered on the stone steps. Fragments of bone and bloody meat paste were strewn along the way; how many could endure such a sight

It must be said that there are indeed many extraordinary aspects within the Fate Altering Tower

Chen Xi finally climbed up the last stone step, gripping that broken flat carrying pole, at least preserving half of his body. The image of his struggle to ascend is destined to shock everyone watching him from outside for a lifetime. In the days to come, whenever they recall it, they will have to admire how resolute and determined that young man in the Fortune Changing Tower was back then.

As one is about to ascend to the realm of the void, the foremost task, naturally, is to choose one's destiny.

Chen Xi, this obscure and lowly servant of unknown origin, has already equaled the highest record in the history of the six sects of the Outer Court of the Xiaomantian Sect for disciples ascending the Transformation Tower. Since the construction of the Transformation Tower, the best recorded achievement has been reaching the third level of the tower. It is important to note that although the hardships endured by Chen Xi are indeed extremely severe, even a reduction of several times the hardships would not be something just anyone could bear.

This child has achieved success

Moreover, it seems that he currently has only one item available for use

Chen Xi awakened to the realization that the injuries he had previously inflicted upon his internal organs using the true energy of Qiyang Valley had actually completely healed after his body was utterly destroyed and reconstituted upon ascending the second level of the tower. After undergoing the trials of ascending the second level of the tower twice and the third level once, his physique had become more than twice as powerful as it was before he began his ascent.

This matter is going to escalate significantly

No one can face their own broken appearance. This brokenness is merely a result, not the process; it is the process that is the most painful and difficult to endure

The milky white light underwent a slight change after Chen Xi entered, as if it could automatically recognize the injured. The radiance transformed into wisps that floated over, gradually merging into Chen Xi's wounds. Then, Chen Xi felt an indescribable comfort, akin to the gentle caress of a graceful woman's fingers gliding over the skin. It was even enough to elicit a moan.

Those who are filled with jealousy and resentment did not shout together, but they chose to remain silent

Therefore, even a practitioner like Su Xiaosu is unable to bring Liu Xichen out again

This inevitably leads one to ponder what kind of extraordinary person the founder of the Xiaoman Tianzong, the first generation sect master Li Lanfeng, truly was. To have ventured to Kunlun, a place of great fortune yet fraught with peril, and to have brought back the Nine-Colored Stone is already a rarity in the world. It is rumored that the Nine-Colored Stone is a treasure of Kunlun, guarded by a powerful existence that defies the heavens. Li Lanfeng endured seven days and nights of arduous battle before he could bring the Nine-Colored Stone back from Kunlun.

Chen Xi smiled, for he did not have to worry about choosing what to do for his birthday.

The three trials pushed him to the brink, yet it precisely brought forth his potential. Thus, it was evident that he was about to ascend from the most fundamental foundational realm of a practitioner to the Void Breaking stage, where one can harness their innate ability to fly. Upon reaching the Void Breaking stage, the power of his cultivation would far surpass that of someone in the foundational realm.

After all, this breakthrough is not an upgrade within a grand realm, but rather a transition from the most fundamental foundational stage of a practitioner to the stage of breaking through the void

She said

However, although it appears to be very fragile, the carrying pole consistently demonstrates remarkable resilience

Chen Xi looked at the broken shoulder pole in his hand and couldn't help but laugh

After experiencing the flames of the second tower and the sword energy of the third tower, the shoulder pole remained unchanged. This gave Chen Xi a sense of illusion, making him unable to help but wonder if this shoulder pole existed in another space, thus impervious to anything in this world.

He lowered his head and discovered that his lower body, which had been completely shattered by the sword energy, was regenerating at a visibly rapid pace. This milky white radiance was evidently much more effective than the restoration of the human body within the portal of the second-level tower. Chen Xi had reassembled his physical form twice in the second-level tower; the first time took four hours, and the second time took less than three hours. However, this time, Chen Xi realized that perhaps his body could restore itself in less than half an hour.

Each time the realm is elevated, a warm current circulates back and forth within the lower abdomen. After filling the dantian, this warm flow merges into the limbs and bones. When this warm flow completes a cycle and returns to the dantian, the realm reaches a new height. Chen Xi has injuries he inflicted upon himself; he originally thought it would take at least six months for a complete recovery, followed by at least one or two years of cultivation to break through the realm.

Liu Xichen of the Phoenix and Luan Courtyard had her beautiful eyes sparkling, as if she had discovered a new continent

This world is truly filled with opportunities, books, and coincidences. If it were not for this carrying pole, he would not even have any chosen innate object. It is important to note that those young men from prominent families can select an item from the treasures stored by their families from a young age, carrying it with them to cultivate their spirituality and affinity, waiting to become their innate object after breaking through the void

Cannot wait

Just looking at it is already intimidating

When Chen Xideng ascended the three-story tower, he encountered sword energy that can be compared to the peak of martial arts. Even ordinary martial artists, when reaching the utmost limit, can cultivate sword energy and achieve a sword-drawing speed of dozens or even hundreds of times per second. However, these individuals represent the most powerful in the realm of ordinary martial arts, and it is impossible for them to advance further. There are indeed practitioners in this world who have reached the fifth or sixth rank of foundational cultivation, and there are precedents of them being defeated by those at the pinnacle of ordinary martial arts.

Liu Xichen's beautiful lips curled slightly upwards, and with a gentle leap, her graceful figure descended in front of the Fortune Tower like a light, floating yellow cloud. She landed with such lightness, akin to the silent, nurturing spring rain.

Dust cleaning, what do you want to do

The fiery stone steps from the first tower to the second tower have blocked more than ninety-five percent of the disciples

As Liu Xichen entered the Tower of Transformation, at least a dozen disciples from the Outer Sect's Six Courtyards suddenly surged out from the crowd, rushing eagerly into the Tower. Among them was also Zhan Qing, a disciple from the A Class of the Qingwu Academy. Upon seeing Zhan Qing dart past, Shi Xueling hesitated for a moment before ultimately following suit.

After this time, it is uncertain how many disciples from the Six Sects will develop a sense of retreat and no longer wish to ascend the tower

According to the information gathered, that unknown deity is located at the top of the Nine-Tiered Pagoda, which is also the highest point of the Fortune Alter. What about the sixth, seventh, and eighth tiers?

The interior of this door is very warm. Chen Xi looked up and noticed a fist-sized orb hanging from the top, emitting a milky white glow. The light from the orb radiates a warmth akin to sunlight, and the moment Chen Xi stepped inside, the pain in his shattered body instantly vanished.

Zhan Qing swung his fist vigorously, and there was a rare respect in his eyes. He was not only a standout among the students of Class A, but also a highly promising student in the entire Qing Martial Arts Academy. It is a very difficult thing for someone as proud and ambitious as him to admire others

When Chen Xi finally climbed to the top of the three-story tower and lay there gasping for breath, someone among the thousands of onlookers shouted, "This is a true man!" Following that, there was a resounding cheer. In this round of applause, there was no mockery or ridicule, nor was there any jealousy or resentment, only admiration. Before entering the Fortune Tower, Chen Xi did not use his foundational ninth-grade cultivation to retaliate against those who mocked him; after reaching the top of the three-story tower, he no longer needed to respond.

Chen Xi was well aware of what was happening, and thus felt an involuntary joy in his heart

The Dean of the Phoenix and Dragon Academy, Su Xiaosu, said: "Do not be anxious, in a while it will be the time for the annual examination. I know that you have not had a true rival for a long time, which has caused you to become somewhat lax in your cultivation."

That scene

Zhou Jiu, standing on the third floor, rubbed his brow and said: "That kid has caused such chaos, it was unexpected... completely unexpected. However, it is also good; the law does not punish the many. ... Now, even if the sect leader wants to put on a show of punishment, it won't be too excessive."

It will become the dream that resides with them throughout this life

The first to start clapping and shouting were those valiant men, and soon the female disciples in the Phoenix and Luan Academy joined in the cheers. Everyone was inspired by this unwavering fighting spirit. Many female disciples looked at Chen Xi with complex expressions, yet in the eyes of many, there was also admiration for this essence.

The young man dragged a small portion of his body up the three-story tower with his intact right arm. Below his lower abdomen, he had been completely severed by sword energy. The blood flowing out from his abdominal cavity even formed a small waterfall on the stone steps; the scene was so bloody and tragic that everyone who saw it couldn't help but tremble in their hearts

The sovereign smiled and uttered four words, then floated away

... ...

He is a real man

Moreover, a very warm current of air is swirling back and forth in his lower abdomen
