Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits

Seven days later, a terrifying aura of a Third-Order Low-Grade evil spirit burst forth within the Quiet Room, successfully advancing Red Emperor into a Third-Order Low-Grade demon beast.

"Red Emperor."

"Bloodline type: Dragon."

"Bloodline quality: Low-grade (0/1000)."

"Cultivation Level: Third-Order Low-Grade (0/3000)."

"With Red Emperor advancing to a Third-Order demon beast, I now command two Golden Core Level forces. This makes me much safer in the North Desolation. I can continue my cultivation with peace of mind!"

Zhao Yu gazed at Red Emperor, whose appearance was fierce, body over three feet tall and covered in dragon scales, and eyes seemingly ablaze with flames, and a smile flickered across his face.

"Successful cultivation, why not celebrate!"

Zhao Yu left the Quiet Room directly, found Shangguan Lingxiu, and together they strolled around the lake, enjoying a spring breeze, indescribably delightful.

Time flowed, and two years vanished in the blink of an eye.

Outside the Muyuan Workshop Market, space suddenly twisted. A white tower, forged from white Spirit Jade, loomed large, seemingly stretching to the sky, appearing abruptly.

A Loose Cultivator stared at the white tower dumbfounded, "What is that?"

"It's a tower obviously! Fool!"

Another Loose Cultivator sneered and then, riding his Escape Light, flew towards the white tower.

The many Loose Cultivators were shocked for only a moment before they one after another flew towards the white tower.

This sudden appearance of a bizarre structure in the Cultivation World was likely an Ancient Cultivator's relic or a newly manifested secret realm. Whoever could enter it first might reap many benefits, or they might lose their lives.

All the major powers in the Muyuan Workshop Market had their spies, and the news of the appearance of the white tower spread throughout the entire North Desolation in no time.

Little Dan Peak.

A Communication Talisman transformed into a streak of light and entered the cave mansion.

In a serious tone, Fairy Colorful Ling's voice echoed from the Communication Talisman throughout the cave mansion, "Zhao Yu, return to Dan Ling Sect immediately! Even if you are in secluded cultivation, come out for this seat!"

"What on earth happened to make Fairy Colorful Ling so anxious?"

Zhao Yu, who had been in secluded cultivation, was urgently summoned by Shangguan Lingxiu. After a brief thought, he rode his Escape Light towards Dan Ling Sect.

Atop Danxia Peak.

Zhao Yu bowed and said, "I pay respects to the Supreme Elder. May I know why the Supreme Elder has summoned me?"

"A white tower has appeared outside the Muyuan Workshop Market! That tower is most likely the legendary Sky-reaching White Tower! Every hundred years, the Sky-reaching White Tower is said to manifest itself in our Tianlan Realm and many nearby minor realms."

"The Sky-reaching White Tower contains countless treasures and even Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can enhance a cultivator's talent or allow mortals to develop Spirit Roots. So long as one can survive within the Sky-reaching White Tower, they can obtain numerous unparalleled Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, crucial for Condensing a Golden Core!" Your journey continues with empire

Fairy Colorful Ling's eyes flashed with a trace of zeal and expectancy. "I hope you can enter the Sky-reaching White Tower and find those rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, in preparation for your forthcoming Condensing of the Golden Core!"

Zhao Yu smiled and said, "Supreme Elder, I possess the Heavenly Spirit Root! In the future, I will surely be able to condense a Golden Core, so why take the risk?"

Fairy Cai Ling's eyebrows raised slightly as she said, "Zhao Yu, it's true that you will be able to condense a Golden Core in the future! But what about condensing a Nascent Soul? The resources needed to condense a Nascent Soul are incredibly rare anywhere. Many times, even if you have Spirit Stones, you cannot buy the resources needed to condense a Nascent Soul."

"Inside the Tongtian White Pagoda, there may well be resources for condensing a Nascent Soul. If you are only satisfied with a Golden Core, then there's no need to go to the Tongtian White Pagoda. However, if you wish to condense a Nascent Soul in the future, not going to the Tongtian White Pagoda means giving up a great opportunity."

"I know you are worried about encountering strong enemies and perishing inside the Tongtian White Pagoda. However, the pagoda is divided into different levels, and as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, you will only enter the levels for Foundation Establishment Cultivators and will not encounter Golden Core powerhouses."

"If you are willing to enter the Tongtian White Pagoda and take risks, I can grant you a Talisman Treasure for protection. Coupled with your Earth-Escaping Minor Divine Ability from the Mountain Sutra, as long as you do not engage with the direct disciples of the top sects in the Foundation Establishment phase, you should be able to save your life."

Zhao Yu asked, "Supreme Elder, if I enter the Tongtian White Pagoda, could I encounter Third-Order Evil Ghosts, Third-Order Lifespan Spirit Beasts, and Third-Order Puppets, those monsters with the battle power of a Golden Core, belonging to other top sects' direct enforcers?"

Fairy Cai Ling responded, "It's possible you will encounter them! However, only Lifespan Spirit Beasts, Evil Ghosts under a Human-Ghost Pact, or Lifespan Puppets, those rare monsters, can be brought into the Foundation Establishment level's Spirit Pagoda. If you encounter such top sect monsters, your only option is to flee.

With your Earth-Escaping Minor Divine Ability, even if you encounter these monsters, you have a good chance of escaping."

Zhao Yu slowly said, "I am willing to enter the Tongtian White Pagoda and take the risk!"

Fairy Cai Ling revealed a trace of surprise in her eyes, "That's unexpected. I thought for sure you would refuse!"

Zhao Yu said earnestly, "Supreme Elder, you have misunderstood me. I was just being a little cautious!"

Fairy Cai Ling chuckled softly, waved her hand, and a jade box flew toward Zhao Yu: "This is the Talisman Treasure of the Flaming Gourd, it can be used twice, and its power is comparable to a full-force flame spell strike from a Golden Core First Layer cultivator."

Zhao Yu said, "Thank you, Supreme Elder! However, I have one more request. Please do not let Xianjiao go to the Tongtian White Pagoda!"

Fairy Cai Ling said, "Of course! Xianjiao is the future Supreme Elder of our Dan Ling Sect, and naturally, I cannot allow her to take such a risk!"

Zhao Yu thought to himself, "So I can take risks, but Xianjiao cannot. Fairy Cai Ling really does make a clear distinction."

In the Northern Wilderness, Golden Core Cultivators can suppress all challenges, and if the Five Great Sects of the Northern Wilderness were without Golden Core Cultivators to anchor them, they would likely be annihilated by other powers immediately.

Li Xianjiao, who cultivates the Mystic True Scripture of the Primordial Dao, is Fairy Cai Ling's direct disciple and the rightful successor of the Dan Ling Sect. Naturally, Fairy Cai Ling pays her more attention.

After that, Zhao Yu asked in detail about the various pieces of information on the Tongtian White Pagoda.

Any cultivator can enter the Tongtian White Pagoda, entering different levels of the Spirit Pagoda, and once inside, they must stay for a year.

After one year, all cultivators will be automatically transported out of the Tongtian White Pagoda.

Having obtained the information, Zhao Yu immediately flew back to Little Dan Peak, gathered all the key figures, informed them about the Tongtian White Pagoda, and allowed them to choose whether to enter it.

Fang Shitou stood up and said, "Lord of the mountains, I wish to enter the Tongtian White Pagoda to collect Spirit Materials for you."

Zhao Yu slowly said, "The Tongtian White Pagoda is very dangerous. Are you sure?"

Fang Shitou smiled and said, "I have decided! Grateful for the grace of the lord of the mountains allowing me to embark on the path of cultivation, I've always thought about repaying this kindness. This is a great opportunity. However, should I unfortunately perish, please take good care of my family!"

Zhao Yu said, "If you unfortunately perish, I will take extra care of your family."

Fang Shitou said, "Thank you, lord of the mountains!"

Aside from Fang Shitou, there were thirteen other nominal disciples Zhao Yu had taken over the years who planned to enter the Tongtian White Pagoda in search of opportunities. Zhao Yu granted each of them one Supreme Grade Magic Artifact for protection.

Shangguan Lingxiu and the others, after persuasion from Zhao Yu, gave up the idea of going to the Tongtian White Pagoda.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
