As for the ancient battlefield, Li Cheng was not shy with his knowledge.
The more they understood, the better it would be for them.
However, just as Li Cheng had said, if they entered the ancient battlefield, the greatest crisis would come from outsiders.
âIâm planning to enter seclusion for a period, if the ancient battlefield opens and Iâm still in seclusion, Sect Masters can consider taking the Mole and Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle with them, theyâre quite experienced in this regard.â
After introducing the ancient battlefield, Li Cheng said.
All the Sect Masters looked hopeful, they had heard that the Mole was actually a Treasure Hunting Rat that had now merged with the bloodline of a God- devouring Rat and had transformed into a Divine Beast, not to mention inheriting the innate divine ability of the God-devouring Rat.
As for the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle, thereâs no need to say, it possessed innate space divine abilities, and its prowess in time was extremely remarkable.
With them accompanying, where couldnât they go?
Li Cheng returned to the Eighteenth Peak and set up a Formation at the mountainâs summit, then entered it and took out the five-layered Tower of Chaos.
âSenior Tianyuan, shall we explore the Tower of Chaos together?â asked Li Cheng.
The Immortal Emperor Tianyuan appeared and examined the Tower of Chaos, âAre you thinking about finding that Remnant Soul to inquire about ascension to godhood?â
Li Cheng nodded, âAll these years, Iâve searched through all the texts in the Confucian Sect but could not find the key to becoming a god. Since thereâs a deityâs Remnant Soul inside the tower, naturally, I must ask.â
âI have a faint feeling that the reason this personâs Remnant Soul can exist is due to its reliance on the Tower of Chaos. Should it leave the tower, it would likely dissipate immediately. Hence, I can start from this angle,â he said.
With that, Li Cheng stepped into the first layer of the Tower of Chaos.
The five layers of the Tower of Chaos had an entrance only on the first layer, and the paths to the higher layers were definitely inside.
The first layer was a pale golden world, boundless, as if everything were cast from gold.
âSuch a rich elemental force of gold, it closely resembles a world condensed by a golden series deity; even the Immortal Elixirs born here are primarily of the gold attribute,â exclaimed the Immortal Emperor Tianyuan.
Li Chengâs Immortal Sense enveloped this realm completely, stretching out over two hundred million li. Indeed, it was dominated by the gold attribute, with countless Immortal Elixirs emerging.
âApart from Immortal Elixirs, a lot of Immortal Mines have been spawned underground; the resources of this layer surpass those of an average great world,â marveled the Immortal Emperor Tianyuan.
Li Cheng nodded, âThereâs no living being here, just a field of resources. Weâll talk more after weâve finished exploring.â
At the center of this level, there was a Transmission Array. With only a cursory analysis, Li Cheng understood that this was the array leading to the second layer.
Upon arriving at the second layer, the dense elemental force of wood pervaded the air. This realm, of the same two-hundred-million-li scale, was filled with ancient towering trees and even more Immortal Elixirs in the woods, with an abundance of Immortal Mines underneath.
âPerhaps because they grow within the tower, these Immortal Elixirs are extremely ancient in years, yet without having developed spiritual wisdom or transformed, whereas on the outside, Immortal Elixirs of such age would typically have turned into spirits,â said Emperor Xianyuan.
âAny force that obtains this Tower of Chaos, the resources inside are enough to elevate them to a superpower.â
Without any crises, this was just a field of Immortal Mines and Immortal Elixirs.
The third layer, still two hundred million li in size, consisted of 70% lakes and oceans. The place was dominated by the elemental force of water, and the Immortal Elixirs born here were primarily of the water attribute.
Even the oceans yielded many special Immortal Elixirs, and the overall resources were no worse than the two levels below.
The fourth layer was permeated with intense heat. Without the cultivation of the Immortal Realm, one couldnât withstand the heat here. The Immortal Elixirs born here were less numerous than on the lower three layers, but all were exceptionally precious, and the Immortal Mines were more abundant.
âIt seems the lower five layers of the Tower of Chaos were constructed according to the Five Elements. Over the billions of years, they have evolved into a world, giving birth to countless Immortal Elixirs and Immortal Materials. However, due to their location within the tower, they havenât developed spiritual wisdom,â Li Cheng shook his head and approached the Transmission Array.
The Immortal Emperor Tianyuan looked at the array and drew a breath, The Remnant Soul is hidden on the fifth layer. He might have set up various measures inside, be careful!â
Li Cheng nodded and stepped onto the Transmission Array.
âIndeed, this layer is dominated by the Earth attribute. That is⦠the Ghost Clanâs Hundred Yin Nourishing Soul Array!â The Immortal Emperor Tianyuanâs eyelids twitched, murmured.
In the central area of this floor, a cold aura pervaded the air as if a huge inverted jade bowl enveloped a hundred-li radius.
âThe Remnant Soul is within it. No wonder a mere Remnant Soul could linger for billions of years. It turns out to be relying on this grand array,â Li Cheng scoffed, stepping forward, his figure already at the edge of the array.
âCome out!â Li Cheng called out, scanning the array.
Inside the array, a silence ensued; no one responded to Li Cheng.
Li Cheng raised his hand, array patterns flowing in his palm, âIf you donât come out now, Iâm going to break the array.â
âStop! It took tremendous effort for me to collect countless immortal corpses to set up this array. If you destroy it, I will surely fight you to the end!â A voice from the middle-aged man resonated from the array, and his figure also appeared at the edge of the formation.
He looked sullen, peering at Li Cheng with a grim face, âBoy, donât go too far. Iâve already hidden here, and still you follow?â
Li Cheng examined the middle-aged man, âIt seems you donât know that Iâve taken the Tower of Chaos. Weâre no longer in the ancient battlefield now, but in my Heavenly Mechanism Sect.â
The middle-aged man frowned, âJiang Fan is a descendant of my clan. I once activated his bloodline for him. Although I had thought about merging with him, I never did. In a way, you and I have no grudges, and weâve had interactions because of Jiang Fan. Why donât we just let bygones be bygones?â Having already witnessed Li Chengâs strength in the ancient battlefield, he knew that in his weakened State of Remnant Soul, he stood no chance against Li Cheng.
