Chapter 2378: Secret Made Public

The Black Tower has three layers; each time you ascend a layer, you can obtain one Heaven and Earth Pill and one Mad Demon Pill.

If you clear all three layers, you can also get two Violent Thunder Pills.

Inside, there are people who fight you, but you are not allowed to use weapons or Spiritual Soul Attacks, nor can you use your Buddha Demon Power.

You may only use your True Essence and Heaven and Earth Power.

The battles here will not kill you.

Each time you lose, you will be blasted out of the Black Tower.

That means you have to start over from the beginning.

"Yes!"

Ye Liuyun also thought that this place was perfect for testing the effect after he took the Heaven and Earth Pill.

On the first layer of the Black Tower, a Demon Beast formed from Demon Qi appeared.

In the past, when Ye Liuyun faced the Demon Race, he would certainly have used his Buddha Demon Power.

But here it is forbidden, so he had to rely on Mysterious Origin and Heaven and Earth Power, and clashed with that Demon Beast.

What he didn't expect was that after only a few strikes, the Demon Beast blasted him out of the Black Tower.

Outside the Black Tower, Wu Hen was already gone, clearly leaving him to practice on his own.

He gritted his teeth, immediately returned to the Mysterious Void Stone to recover his injuries, and sent his duplicate back into battle.

When the duplicate was blasted out, he changed again and fought.

This time, it took him a full three days to break through the first layer together with his duplicate.

But the Demon Beast on the second layer was stronger; as soon as he went up, he was blasted out again.

Thus, he spent several days repeatedly grinding on the first layer and still could not break through the second layer.

"It's a bit slow!"

Wu Hen stopped midway to check and found it somewhat odd.

Based on the number of pills Ye Liuyun had obtained, his progress should have been beyond this.

In the subsequent training, Ye Liuyun, to save time, pressed on relentlessly.

He continuously used the pills obtained from the first layer to boost both his and his duplicate's strength.

Then came the second layer, then the third.

It took a bit longer than others, but he finally cleared the Black Tower completely.

Moreover, while Wu Hen was not checking, he cleared it a few more times, bringing out the extra pills his duplicate needed.

When Wu Hen returned, he gave Ye Liuyun rewards according to the number of clears Ye Liuyun had achieved.

"If I'm not mistaken, you have a duplicate of comparable strength, right?"

This time, Wu Hen directly guessed the reason for Ye Liuyun's slower cultivation speed.

Ye Liuyun, seeing he couldn't hide it, had to admit it.

"Haha! What's there to hide.

I also have a duplicate!"

Wu Hen said, releasing a Martial Cultivator with the same strength as him, but the two of them differed slightly in appearance.

Ye Liuyun, feeling uneasy about continuing to hide, released his own duplicate.

Wu Hen, upon seeing it, was also somewhat surprised.

"Your duplicate technique is impressive! Even the appearance is exactly the same!"

He added another compliment.

He also approved Ye Liuyun's approach, saying to him, "When it comes to duplicates, you should still keep some things hidden from others.

However, given that you have a duplicate, your training plan will need some adjustments.

I think the overall plan should remain unchanged, but I will double the rewards and resources for you."

"Thanks!"

Ye Liuyun thanked repeatedly.

Black Kill, being able to let him do this, was indeed doing his duty benevolently.

Therefore, Ye Liuyun at this point felt that even if he took on more tasks for Black Kill, he would have no complaints.

Wu Hen merely smiled and said to Ye Liuyun, "We know many members actually have doubts and reservations about Black Kill.

But as long as they are high‑rank members, they will eventually understand Black Kill and be willing to stay.

You will gradually come to know this later.

Black Kill never imposes restrictions on members, nor does it seek anything.

"Then what is the purpose of Black Kill's founding?"

Ye Liuyun asked Wu Hen directly.

Wu Hen said nothing, only telling him that when his rank is higher, he will know.

Ye Liuyun did not ask further.

After learning from Wu Hen about his duplicate secret, the resources he received indeed increased, ensuring he could complete the training on time.

Subsequently, he underwent training that involved battling ferocious beasts and Kuailei.

Under the large number of custom-made pills and training plan, Ye Liuyun felt his Mysterious Origin quality had greatly improved.

But his realm felt as if it was about to break through to the Ninth Layer Summit.

At this point, Wu Hen also temporarily halted Ye Liuyun's training.

He told Ye Liuyun, "The upcoming period will be the key to your future cultivation.

After you let your realm naturally break through to the Ninth Layer Summit, don't rush to break further."

We have a treasure here, specifically designed for members at this stage.

Some of the members who came for training don't even know this treasure exists.

Once they reach the Celestial Being First Tier, this treasure becomes useless to them.

Saying that, Wu Hen took out something like a belt and handed it to Ye Liuyun.

Wu Hen explained to Ye Liuyun: "This is a treasure that can suppress a realm.

It can help you suppress your realm, preventing you from directly breaking through to the Celestial Being First Tier.

But it does not make your realm stop there.

You can think of it as, between Divine Realm Ninth Layer and Celestial Being First Tier, there is also a Tenth Tier.

This Tenth Tier is the guarantee of the height of your future cultivation.

Of course, beasts or Monster Beasts may not need deliberate suppression, and not everyone who hasn't cultivated the Tenth Tier will inevitably fail to break through to Celestial Being Second Tier in the future.

But if you have cultivated the Tenth Tier, at least it can guarantee that when you later break through to Celestial Being Second Tier, there will be no obstacles!

Ye Liuyun nodded repeatedly: "I understand!"

After refining that treasure, he immediately wore it around his waist.

At the same time, he also told Liang Xue and the others that once they reach this realm, they should try to cultivate the Tenth Tier instead of rushing to break through.

Ye Liuyun felt fortunate that at this moment he received guidance from a senior.

If no one had guided him and he broke through directly, when he later advanced to Celestial Being Second Tier, it might take a great amount of time.

"Hmm! Once you reach the Ninth Layer Summit, stop taking pills, let your realm naturally rise to the Tenth Tier, and we will provide you with enough refined pure energy so that you and your clone can break through to the Celestial Being First Tier together."

Wu Hen told Ye Liuyun.

Black Kill thought so comprehensively, and Ye Liuyun was immensely grateful for it.

Then, Wu Hen continued training with Ye Liuyun, first pushing his realm to the Ninth Layer Summit.

Then he stopped all the pills.

"The first stage of training is temporarily concluded.

During this time, go accumulate points.

First raise your level to five.

When you reach the Divine Realm Tenth Tier, come back here to find me.

Your assassination missions will also be different.

Before, many tasks you couldn't see would be assigned to you.

But their danger will also increase greatly.

Accept missions as you see fit!"

"Yes!"

Ye Liuyun replied, returned to his residence without hurrying away, and took turns with his clone to visit the leisure Grand Hall, each drinking a pot of free Pure Essence Brew for body refining, before leaving the training Secret Realm.
