Chapter 349

He then exhaled a deep breath of stale air.

At this moment, the prompt of the Nine-Layered Phantom Tower appeared once again.

【Ding~ Congratulations on clearing the ninth floor】

【You may now choose one of the following three items as a reward

One: 【Emperor Grade Supreme】 Stellar Cycle Scripture: Absorb the power of the stellar cycle, temper the flesh, open three hundred and sixty-five stellar cycle acupoints, condense three hundred and sixty-five stars, clad in the power of the starry host, suppress Emperor Weapons with the body alone!】

Two: 【Emperor Grade Low】 Nine Marvelous Qi: A fusion product of nine strands of Innate Qi, capable of reversing yin and yang, reshaping the flesh, greatly enhancing bone constitution and comprehension, and randomly granting a supreme physique!】

Three: 【Emperor Grade Low】 Hegemon's Seven Slashes: A saber-path martial technique; upon mastery, one attains the essence of supreme dominance, unleashing seven slashes imbued with annihilation aura that clings to wounds, making recovery extremely difficult; it can shatter both flesh and divine soul, causing the enemy's true spirit to perish!

Gazing at the rewards before him, Jiang Daoxuan raised an eyebrow, his eyes brimming with astonishment!

One must remember that the reward for the eighth floor was merely at the Heaven Grade level.

Yet unexpectedly, the ninth floor could skip the Saint Grade and reach straight to Emperor Grade!

However, thinking of the ninth floor's difficulty, Jiang Daoxuan suddenly felt it was entirely reasonable.

Originally, he had planned to wait until his realm was higher before coming back to clear it and claim the reward.

But gazing at the Stellar Cycle Scripture before him, he already understood there was no need to wait any longer.

After all, the current upper limit of the simulation is Great Emperor.

Therefore, the grade of the Stellar Cycle Scripture has already reached the absolute ceiling!

It was perfect to replace the original Great Sun Body Tempering Art, which was only at Earth Grade Supreme.

Afterward, Jiang Daoxuan only claimed the reward for the ninth floor.

The rewards for the first eight floors, he still planned to wait until his realm was higher and the rewards became richer before considering claiming them.

Along with the successful claim.

The next moment, a flood of text poured into his mind.

Soon, Jiang Daoxuan understood the might of this cultivation method!

The Stellar Cycle Scripture focuses on the fleshly body.

Even without the blessing of a special physique, relying on a mortal body alone, one could erupt with tremendous might and slay a Saint Physique!

Once cultivated to the Perfection realm, one could even slay immortals!

However, although this art was powerful, its cultivation difficulty was also extremely high!

Because the process of opening acupoints and condensing stellar cycle stars easily caused the fleshly body to be unable to withstand it, leading to collapse!

Therefore, before cultivating the Stellar Cycle Scripture, one must first temper the fleshly body to the point of being comparable to an Earth Grade Low magic treasure!

Only then could one withstand the process of condensing stars within the body!

However, for the current Jiang Daoxuan.

This cultivation threshold had absolutely no effect; he could cross it with ease!

Afterward, he made up his mind, preparing to find a secluded place before commencing cultivation.

At this moment, a line of illusory small text suddenly appeared before his eyes.

【Congratulations on clearing the ninth floor. Based on your performance, you have been judged as Nine-Star (Extreme) combat power!】

【Yes/No — choose to enter the rankings!】

Seeing this, Jiang Daoxuan instinctively prepared to tap No, wanting to continue keeping a low profile.

But on second thought.

"Perhaps it wouldn't be bad to inspire the clan members a little?"

Setting himself as an example, prompting the clan members to constantly chase after him, igniting the fighting spirit in their hearts.

Looking at it this way, there was absolutely no need to hide.

Then let's enter the rankings!

Not long after.

The outside world.

Along with the appearance of the Nine-Layered Phantom Tower.

Many clan members began using the Cangwu Tokens to inform their loved ones.

One told ten, ten told a hundred.

More and more clan members gathered here.

Many worried that if they went too late, the rewards left by the Clan Chief would all be taken by others.

Immediately, they began scrambling to enter the tower, starting the challenge!

But very soon, many clan members retreated out one after another.

Their faces showed bewilderment.

Facing the inquiries from the surrounding clan members, they had absolutely no idea what had just happened.

Seeing this situation, everyone quickly understood.

"It seems the Clan Chief set up a formation inside that can erase memories."

At the same time.

On the other side.

Jiang Yan walked out from the tower.

He held his forehead, his eyes filled with confusion and puzzlement.

No matter how he tried to recall, he had not the slightest impression of everything that had just happened.

His memory was nothing but a blank!

"This is... my memory was... erased?"

Jiang Yan's gaze shifted slightly, and he realized this in an instant.

But very soon, he made a new discovery.

"No... it seems a little different."

Jiang Yan lowered his head and looked at his own palm.

At this moment, he was startled to discover that not only had his own cultivation base broken through from the original second layer of the Primordial Sea Realm to the third layer of the Primordial Sea Realm.

Some new martial techniques that had originally felt extremely unfamiliar had also become incomparably smooth, as if he had used them many times!

Moreover, from time to time, there would even be sensations of himself striking out and employing various moves surfacing.

Was that... experiential comprehension of battle?

Upon discovering this point, Jiang Yan immediately understood and guessed:

"So, although the memories of the experiences inside the tower were erased, the memories of the physical body itself, along with the experiential comprehension, were preserved?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan could not help but feel greatly amazed.

After his emotions calmed down.

He hurriedly looked toward the Purple Mansion Space and the Cangwu Command Token again.

By now, the function of the spatial ring had long since been replaced by the Cangwu Command Token.

So basically no clansmen would still use a spatial ring, such a useless item, to store things.

Jiang Yan quickly scanned these two spaces and found no extra treasures in either.

Jiang Yan was first puzzled, but quickly understood: "Looks like I didn't choose a treasure..."

Afterwards, in order to figure out what had happened inside.

He immediately began to question Zhou Lao.

"Master, do you remember what just happened?"

The moment the words fell.

Zhou Lao's voice, filled with shock and helplessness, suddenly came through.

"Young Master, the grade of the formation within this treasure tower is probably at the Saint Grade."

"Even I have lost all impression of everything that just happened, unable to recall the details and the process..."

Although he had lost his physical body.

The essence of his divine soul was still at the Perfection of Heaven and Man, only a single step away from a Saint!

Yet even so, he still could not avoid having his memories erased — this was truly somewhat shocking to hear!

One could well imagine just how exaggeratedly high a grade the grand formation laid down by this Clan Leader Jiang had actually reached!
