The difficulty of the fifth level of the Trial Tower was at least twice as much as the fourth level, and only then did Mu Can realize why the Divine Wind List of the Trial Tower was valued more highly than other listings.
Because in here, no matter what your cultivation level, this place simply does not consider cultivation levels.
Only those with strong Soul Power and an unyielding heart can overcome their opponents.
It could be said that the most crucial challenge within the Trial Tower isn’t defeating enemies, but rather, the biggest enemy is oneself.
This is something Mu Can realized just after passing the fifth level; only with a sufficiently strong will can one fully utilize all of their power.
"Sixth layer." Mu Can didn’t hesitate at all and directly stepped into the sixth layer.
Perhaps unbeknownst to himself, the aura he carried was exactly the same as that of Heavenly Dao in his youth.
I am invincible, no matter how strong the enemies, I am unbeatable in this world.
In the battles of these few levels, Mu Can had gradually cultivated his own invincible spirit.
This was simply a miracle, an aura Mu Can understood only after realizing the Great Taoist Rift inside him.
Since the Dao is fragmented, then I am my own Dao, not just in determining the path of my future cultivation, but in affirming my convictions.
"Look quickly, someone has entered the sixth layer, oh my, is this the rhythm to challenge the Divine Wind List?"
"Absolutely invincible, which divine person from the Divine Wind List is this?"
"Don’t rush, wait till he manages to break through to the eighth layer, the external projection will open up, then we will naturally be able to see."
A group of people watching the sixth layer of the Trial Tower light up felt quite struck.
How come the person inside seems to handle the Trial Tower challenges as simply as eating and drinking, whereas when looking back at their own challenges, they wouldn’t dare to rashly attempt the next level without being absolutely sure.
"Actually, many people don’t know, they think that failing a challenge in the Trial Tower is a punishment, but I think that the pain following a failed challenge is part of cultivation itself," said the dean to Mad Old Devil.
These were his realizations from his youth; even the torment from failed challenges was actually a form of mental training.
It’s just that the current students no longer possess the same determination to cultivate as they did back then.
"It’s different now, the ideals of cultivation back in our day, heh, are completely different from what these students have now."
Mad Old Devil shook his head, in the past six disciples including him were all under the old dean, aiming to heal the world and guard against disorders in unoccupied areas.
Now looking at the disciples in the Divine Wind Academy, almost all are here to learn good skills, to contribute to their family when they return home.
Or just to learn martial skills and sell them to the imperial families.
"Sigh, sometimes I wonder, has everyone been too comfortable for too long and gradually lost their vigilance?"
The dean looked at the Trial Tower, as if he could see Mu Can inside through it.
"Yeah, the unrest in the unoccupied areas has become a legend, hasn’t it? People who haven’t experienced it themselves, how could they understand the feelings of our generation?"
Mad Old Devil nodded, indicating his agreement.
In their time, the unoccupied areas were not as calm as they are now; occasionally powerful creatures would emerge from the unoccupied areas and wreak havoc in the cities.
This was also one of the original reasons for establishing the Divine Wind Academy.
Not just because Sin City sheltered some desperate or atrociously evil people.
In a way, the purpose of the Divine Wind Academy was also to suppress the unrest in the unoccupied areas.
Unfortunately, it’s been at least a thousand years since any unrest occurred in the unoccupied areas.
Conversely, with the exploration of the All Things Realm, parts of the unoccupied areas have gradually become less dangerous places where people can live.
"Really don’t know what is going on inside the unoccupied areas!" the dean sighed.
The secrets hidden within the unoccupied areas are said to be the biggest secrets among thousands of planes.
Some have said that if the things hidden within the unoccupied areas were to erupt, the entire myriad realms would face a huge catastrophe.
"Perhaps Heavenly Dao knows something about it," the dean recalled the carefree figure who roamed the Supreme Interface.
"Yeah, that kid Heavenly Dao has always been studying the unoccupied areas, though he never shares with us."
Mad Old Devil nodded, which is why Heavenly Dao had such a status across the entire Supreme Interface.
It’s not just because of the power of Heavenly Dao, but also because of his knowledge of the unoccupied areas.
Understanding the unoccupied areas is an extraordinary matter; even the beings of the All Things Realm can lose their lives carelessly in the unoccupied areas.
"It’s a shame that Heavenly Dao has been missing for so long, no idea where he went." The dean looked rueful, as Heavenly Dao was a very good friend of his.
"Do you reckon it’s possible?" Mad Old Devil looked distantly towards the direction of the unoccupied areas.
"Heh, forget it, even if I die, that guy Heavenly Dao will still be bouncing around unharmed."
The dean shook his head, no one in the entire Supreme Interface could probably kill Heavenly Dao.
"It’s probably just me thinking too much. I just hope that the unoccupied areas never encounter problems; compared to them, the strength of the entire Supreme Interface is negligible."
Even mentioning the unoccupied areas makes beings of the All Things Realm involuntarily shudder.
That place is known as the burial grounds of the All Things Realm; despite these beings being major players in the Supreme Interface.
But once they enter the unoccupied areas, they become extremely cautious and afraid of problems, not even daring to carelessly step on an ant in the unoccupied areas.
There was once an aged being from the All Things Realm who tried to enter the unoccupied areas to extend his life.
But just as he entered the unoccupied areas, he accidentally stepped on an ant.
Instantly, an ant tide erupted within the unoccupied areas, directly devouring that being of the All Things Realm without leaving even his bones.
The dean still remembers the words Heavenly Dao said.
"Stepped on an ant? Compared to what’s inside the unoccupied areas, I believe the beings of the All Things Realm are more like ants."
The dean had once asked Heavenly Dao if he recognized that kind of ant.
"That’s a Devouring God Ant, killing one can easily attract a huge swarm, and once besieged by these ants, beings of All Things Realm are certain to die."
The dean still remembers the expression Heavenly Dao had when he said those words; it definitely wasn’t the kind of look one should have when looking at ants.
"Look, Mu Can actually passed the sixth level too, it looks kid really wants to give us a miracle."
Mad Old Devil also looked excited.
