Chapter 290: Chapter 142: Breaking Through Twelve Levels_2

The Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda encompasses tens of thousands of years of the Primal Chaos Realm’s history. It wasn’t hard to arbitrarily select a period as a historical trial.

The only consolation is that there are no limits on the number of attempts one can make to scale the tower. With determination, you can climb the tower every day if you wish.

In the numerous gathering places, after just ten days, many cultivators had started to converge, sorting out information related to various historical trials and seeking ways to break through the challenges.

Even though the history recorded in the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda was as vast as a sea of smoke, as long as one tried climbing enough times, blind luck may just occur.

During this time, the related information of the historical trial could play a role, enabling the cultivators to complete the trial tasks based on the solution they found.

In many cases, cultivators would grind through the historical trial, pushing forcefully through it after coming to a standstill.

Whether out of strong luck or extraordinary talent, any cultivator could reach the corresponding floor of their realm before the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda closed.

Yet, an unfortunate situation, much like the Taoist who, despite being at the Transcendence Peak, was stuck on the tenth floor, had become the laughing stock of the whole Cultivation World.

Knowing that such an unfortunate occurrence may happen, all the Transcendence Elites from the major sects present began to worry about whether they could reach the levels of the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda corresponding to their respective realms before the Pagoda closed.

Anxiety escalated rapidly, and suddenly one of the Transcendence Elites at the table spoke:

“This Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda trial has shattered our confidence. I wonder how Friend Shen of the Falling Clouds Sect is doing?”

There was a moment of silence in the room, followed by a female cultivator with a cold voice:

“Wasn’t he the one who claimed to climb to the highest level of the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda? Does anyone know how he is doing?”

Another Transcendence Elite from the Heaven Covered Cleansing Void, with significant foresight in his gaze, looked at Wen TianTai and said:

“After that day’s surge of Primal Chaos Energy, we had left the Lingxu Market. But I heard that he went to the third floor of the All-Things Trade Association under your name, and has stayed in the Lingxu Market ever since.

I presume that for this tower climb, he would likely be climbing from the Lingxu Market’s corresponding entry point.”

The crowd then turned their gaze towards the rising brilliance on the pagoda of the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda.

The entries corresponding to the two major markets, the Heavy Mountain and Listen to the Tide, both had the splendor of eleven pagodas lit, with almost the same progress.

But above the entrance corresponding to the Lingxu Market, the brilliance remained at the eighth level, signifying that not a single person from the Lingxu Market side had successfully climbed past the ninth level of the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda.

For the majority, such progress would be quite ordinary. The cultivators in Lingxu Market, all from minor sects and loose cultivators, were no match in terms of divine skills and experience to the major sects.

Even the nine Transcendence Elites present had failed at the ninth level of the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda, let alone those from smaller sects and loose cultivators.

However, this tower light also meant that Shen Yuan, who claimed to climb to the highest floor, had only managed to pass a maximum of eight floors, or possibly even less.

Realizing this, the expressions of the Transcendence Elites in the private room varied.

All of them were witnesses to the Primal Chaos Energy surge. According to Liew Hang’s account afterward, it was Shen Yuan who suppressed the Primal Chaos Energy, thereby saving everyone else.

After suppressing the Primal Chaos Energy, Shen Yuan left without saying a word, completely ignoring everyone.

Combining Shen Yuan’s attitude with his previous arrogant claim to reach the top floor, the Transcendence Elites felt ashamed.

Nevertheless, as disciples of major sects, these Transcendence Elites were also a bit resentful.

However, as Shen Yuan’s exhibited power when suppressing the Primal Chaos Energy was tremendously strong, and in hindsight, Shen Yuan did save everyone; no one dared to openly criticize him.

Yet, as the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda trial had begun, Shen Yuan had not shown the formidable strength he did when suppressing the Primal Chaos Energy, giving these elites a little relief and a bit more confidence.

Their hearts were whispering:

“What if you could suppress the Primal Chaos Energy? Weren’t you stuck on the eighth level of the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda trial like us?”

“I’m guessing his suppression of the Primal Chaos Energy was probably not based on his own strength but on a protective treasure left by an elder.”

Of course, they would never say such things out loud. However, their attitudes and spoken implications had undoubtedly revealed everything.

Wen TianTai was getting a bit agitated, but he couldn’t argue against the truth pointed out by the present Transcendence Elites.

Just then, the always calm Liew Hang suddenly spoke up.

“A mere ninth-level trial certainly couldn’t obstruct Friend Shen. Perhaps he has other purposes.”

As the highest-level cultivator among the present sect elites, Liew Hang’s words naturally attracted everyone’s attention.

“Other purposes? Does Senior Brother Liew mean that Friend Shen chose the Earth Gate or the Heaven Gate in the first layer?”

As soon as this was said, Chen Peng from the Heaven Covered Cleansing Void immediately refuted:

“Choosing the Earth Gate? Isn’t that just courting death?”

“In the tens of thousands of years since the opening of the Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda trial, no one has ever successfully completed the Earth Gate’s trial. It’s not a realm that ordinary cultivators can touch.”
