Chapter 570 237: Tower of the Supreme (Part 2)

Amidst all creation, the void where Qin Jin stood underwent changes.

Starting from Qin Jin, the entire space seemed to "stand up." From where he stood, crystal staircases emerged, three in total, leading upwards, extending to a certain height, whereupon the previously manifest spatial images contracted, transforming into different giant symbol patterns, connecting with the crystal staircases.

Then.

From these three symbols upwards, new crystal staircases formed, continuing to extend, as more spatial images contracted, transforming into symbol patterns.

It appeared.

This was constructing three [paths].

In some places, [crystal bridges] appeared between symbols, connecting different routes, indicating possible route changes in certain areas.

Extending all the way, climbing upwards, until the highest point, the three routes converged into one at the topmost symbol.

Starting from Qin Jin, in this void, there appeared a tree-shaped diagram shaped like a tower!

Apart from the three patterns on the first level, the symbol patterns above were shrouded in mist during their formation, making them unable to be seen clearly. Perhaps the mist would disperse when one approached the stairs.

Qin Jin stood in place, his keen perception allowed him to react immediately upon witnessing this process.

"This supreme trial has just been generated."

"So this means..."

"The trial land at the Crystal Domain Academy differs in specific trial content and form for each Evolver who triggers a supreme trial."

"After all, this isn't just a trial land for the Martial Arts Family."

"Considering the environment of the Crystal Branch Star, this trial land might even have drawn the attention of that [Ruling Crystal Master]."

Thoughts flashed through his mind.

The towering tree-shaped diagram in front of him was undoubtedly his trial content.

Slowly exhaling, a serious expression emerged on Qin Jin's face as he stepped onto the crystal stairs.

At the instant he stepped onto the stairs.

Immense pressure rushed in, and on the staircases, crystal runes formed, surging towards Qin Jin.

This process of climbing the stairs was also a trial.

The three different patterns on the first level: the left route had a [sword-clashing] pattern, the right route had a well wrapped in crystal stone, while the center had an eerie pattern with a singular eye, its triangular pupil seemingly staring ahead.

Obviously, different patterns denote varying internal trials.

Qin Jin's choice was swift.

He chose the staircase path directly targeting the central pattern.

The left had sword clashing, appearing as a combat scene, the right with the well appearing serene, seemed more a restoration scene, but only this central pupil was the most unknown in purpose.

The unknown represents the terrifying.

Yet, the unknown also represents the greatest gain.

Having entered this trial land, Qin Jin naturally aimed for the greatest reward, thus directly choosing the central pattern theorized to contain the highest potential.

The crystal staircases were exquisite, with each step ascending, pressure mounted as well.

Upon reaching the top of the stairs, as if transitioning from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, from plane to solid, the symbols stood up, rapidly expanding, transforming into an ancient door at the end of the crystal staircases. As Qin Jin reached out his hand, pushing the door open, the space changed.

A blood moon hung in the sky.

The blood moon loomed, the entire space was extremely desolate, Qin Jin looked up, gazing at the blood moon, only to see an eye open within, staring back at him.

Their eyes met.

In that moment, a beam of light shot from the blood moon, swiftly enveloping Qin Jin from head to toe.

Within Qin Jin's mind, information from the trial land emerged, which he quickly browsed through.

[You have been noticed by the blood moon, based on the level of importance, you have acquired the [Burning] trait]

[You have been noticed by the blood moon, based on the level of importance, you have obtained the blood moon mark]

[You have been noticed by the blood moon, based on the level of importance, you must bear the blood moon's pressure]

As the information flashed.

Qin Jin discerned that within the trial land, a gentle, peculiar force surged in, causing his power to boil.

He raised his palm, the power surged forth, showing noticeable changes compared to his usual strength, a [burning] effect imbued within. This change was not limited to techniques, but integrated into every skill Qin Jin employed, representing a fundamental alteration of power.

As thoughts flowed, that gentle, peculiar power went deeper, as Qin Jin's Insights appeared behind him, with a blood moon gradually forming on the surface, giving rise to a sense of protection.

At the same time.

Unnoticed before, the blood moon from the sky descended, rushing rapidly towards Qin Jin.

"What a wondrous sensation."

Qin Jin murmured to himself.

The strange force fused, guiding, leading to changes within, akin to ink strokes on a painting, enhancing and altering the pa ||= icture's essence.

"Is this change permanent, or only limited to this trial land?"

"The latter seems more likely."

Qin Jin whispered inwardly.

This trial land has long existed within the Crystal Domain Academy, open to both locals and outsiders, long since perfected.

Moreover.

Power possesses autonomy, his own power had once resisted [Spiritual Energy], and as this peculiar power fused in, Qin Jin sensed no resistance unlike before, which was why he hadn't intervened, allowing it to happen.

The transformation continued.

As power boiled, the blood moon finally descended, directly hovering behind Qin Jin. As it neared, a sensation akin to falling into an icy abyss arrived, with the flow of power noticeably slowing, Qin Jin himself felt suppression.

"Is there also a downside?"

"Gains from this trial land have both positives and negatives, it's not always beneficial in all aspects."

The blood moon hung behind.

The surrounding space rapidly transformed, and with a single breath, Qin Jin had already exited the blood moon space, stepping back onto the crystal stairs.

Turning back, the three symbol patterns behind had dimmed.

While above on the stairs, the second level symbols were changing, the mist enshrouding them dissipated swiftly, revealing the inner patterns.

Qin Jin stood his ground.

His internal power change continued, adapting to the suppression brought by the blood moon behind, as internal forces surged, constantly clashing with the blood moon. In this process, the suppression no longer increased, gradually ceasing.

Heart slightly stirred, within the Spirit Ruins, the Grotto Heaven activated, Enlightenment Treasure Skill initiated!

The azure lotus swayed, Qin Jin's heart spirit cleared, perceiving and observing all within himself.

If initially it was just a feeling, now it was much clearer; the strange power was an inciter, driving transformations within Qin Jin's power, akin to an engraving process.

The blood moon behind seemed to descend from the heavens, but the initiation was within Qin Jin himself, a side effect following the transformation of his power.

In continual observation, a faint enlightenment arose in Qin Jin's heart.

"Could this Tower of the Supreme possibly involve such a direction?"

He was no longer the novice unsure of anything when he first entered Martial Arts; his accumulated knowledge was now sufficient to answer many questions.

Once a Martial Arts Family completes the Nine Transformations, one can create Martial Saint Technique and forge a Martial Saint Body.

To forge the body with Technique!

This is a critical step; forging the Martial Saint Body will produce unimaginable amplification for a Martial Arts adept, but equally, any slight misstep can result in flaws, hidden dangers, or even unique changes in the Martial adept due to the Martial Saint Body, like preferences, for instance.

Every Martial Saint is entirely different.

This is precisely because during the law-forging process, changes in power can yield positive or negative effects.

Now, with the blood moon's negative pressure, combined with the transformation in own power, how similar it all seemed to the Martial Saint Road?

The only difference is that when Qin Jin truly meets the requirements, all will be self-directed, whereas now it is being accomplished with the guidance of this trial land.

With this reflection, Qin Jin fully realized.

His supreme trial, this Tower of the Supreme, was clearly preemptively aiding him to simulate the Martial Saint Road!
