Austin walked through the gates. As he looked around, he found that the Myth City was a big, busy city hustling and bustling with
activity.
After strolling around for half a day, he heard an interesting piece of news.
People began to discuss that the door of the Spiritual Tower was going to open. The tower was located within the Sacred Martial
Kingdom of the East Mainland. It was said that the gates of the tower opened once every one hundred years.
Many young cultivators, especially the talented ones, were on their way to the Sacred Martial Kingdom to reach the Spiritual Tower.
'What's the Spiritual Tower?' Austin wondered.
He hadn't grown up in the East Mainland, so he knew nothing about the Spiritual Tower.
Austin inquired about the Spiritual Tower from the FlEmperor.
"The Spiritual Tower is extremely famous in our East Mainland.
It lies in the Angel City of the Sacred Martial Kingdom. It is a purple, nine-story tower.
There are nine small worlds sealed inside it. Each floor has a small world.
Each small world is full of rare and precious items.
Above all, there is a special treasure called the spiritual crystal.
The spiritual crystal is of great value and help for spiritual sense cultivation. If a cultivator gets one, he can use it to enhance the
strength of his spiritual sense multiple times.
These spiritual crystals only exist in the Spiritual Tower.
For most of the cultivators, it's difficult to cultivate spiritual sense. The only way to improve their spiritual sense is by reaching
higher realms.
However, spiritual crystals can directly enhance spiritual sense. That's why they are an attractive and valuable treasure.
Each tthe Spiritual Tower opens, lots of young cultivators, especially the talented ones, are attracted and reach it. They plan to
explore the tower and look for spiritual crystals,"
the FlEmperor explained in detail to Austin.
"A magic tower with nine small worlds? That's amazing!"

Austin remarked.
"Divine Continent is a bigger and more advanced place compared to the PrMartial World.
There are many magic places, including sites of old sects, ancient relics, places for trials, ancient great masters’ residences and
many unknown places.
The martial arts and civilization found here can date back to about 2.5 million years ago.
You can imagine how many things have happened during that period and after that, till now.
That's why there are so many martial skills, magic treasures, relics and mysterious places here,"
the FlEmperor added.
"You're right! The cultivators here get more opportunities to develop and improve than those in the PrMartial World,"
Austin agreed.
"Boy, I'd advise you to try your luck in the Spiritual Tower. If you can find sspiritual crystals, you will be able to enhance your
spiritual sense to great extents.
Apart from spiritual crystals, there are other precious items there.
Perhaps you'll have sunexpected harvest there!"
the FlEmperor suggested.
"Good point! Alright then, | will be on my way there to try my luck," Austin responded in high spirits.
The FlEmperor's words had piqued his interest.
Soon, he was headed for the Sacred Martial Kingdom.
He had disguised himself so that no one would recognize him.
Austin hadn't shown up in public for three years.
So, the cultivators in the East Mainland hadn't paid as much attention to him as they did three years ago.
Fortunately, Austin wasn't the focus of the crowd anymore.
And that was good news for Austin. He didn't need to worry about other people identifying him at any time.
Since it was a long journey from the Myth City to the Sacred Martial Kingdom, he used the teleportation array a couple of times.
Fifteen days later, a large city cinto his view, on the horizon.
"Here | come, Angel City,"
Austin murmured with a soft smile on his face.
As he went into the city, he caught sight of a shocking number of young cultivators. 'Oh my gosh! The Spiritual Tower has attracted
so many people here, ' he remarked.
Most pedestrians on the streets were not natives. They cfrom different places in the East Mainland, and surely they were there
waiting for the door of the Spiritual Tower to open.
Many of them acted in an arrogant manner. Obviously, they were geniuses in martial arts who were treated in a respectful manner.
Austin walked around on the streets, planning to find an inn to check in.
He stopped in his tracks abruptly when he overheard something.
"I've heard the genius of the Ji Clan, named Max, has challenged Edward, the prince of beast race, to a duel overtly. And Edward
accepted it.
The duel is taking place in the square today. Let's go have a look," a fat, young cultivator was suggesting to his companions.
"I heard Max Ji is the Holy Heritor of the Ji Clan. He is ranked in the top three among young members of his clan.
Edward is also an elite member of the young generation of the beast race. He is much more powerful than the Peacock Princess.
This is going to be a battle between two talents. We can't miss it!" a tall youth responded excitedly.
"Let's go then. Anyhow we don't have anything to do now," a teenager followed.
The three young cultivators headed towards the downtown area together to witness this duel.
"I see. That's quite interesting. A genius of the Ji Clan has challenged the prince of the beast race?"
Austin also beccurious about the fight between those two elites.
He followed behind the three young cultivators as he was curious to see what was going to happen.
Moments later, they reached the place.
Austin had followed the young cultivators to a vast square.

There was a platform raised in the center of the square.
All kinds of important activities were usually held at the square. If cultivators were going to have a duel, they usually fought on that
platform.
At this point, the platform was surrounded by a huge crowd.
A tall man who was wearing fine, black clothes stood on the platform. With his hands behind his back, he had a poised expression
on his face.
Behind him stood four young men. They gave off a domineering aura. It looked like they despised the other young cultivators
present in the crowd.
They were from the Ji Clan.
"Max, where is that Prince Edward? Did he get cold feet and flee from the Angel City?"
one of the four young cultivators from the Ji Clan said loudly.
"Ha-ha! You've got a good point.
Max is our Holy Heritor. Among the young generation of the East Mainland, | bet five such men would be able to match up to him.
That damn Edward was foolish to dare and accept the challenge. He is digging his own grave,"
another young man from the Ji Clan responded in a booming voice. There was pride evident in their voices.
The four young cultivators, who stood behind Max Ji, started laughing out loudly.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Suddenly, innumerable light dots rained down on the platform.
And a figure showed up in the sky. He quickly strode towards the area above the platform.
"Max, help!" shouted the four young men who had been standing behind Max Ji and boasting loudly a few moments ago.
The golden light dots enveloped the whole platform in an instant. They released overwhelming demonic energy, which made the
entire platform shake violently.
The young cultivators who stood behind Max Ji were turned pale with extrfear.
In an instant, each light dot turned into a golden feather.
The countless golden feathers shot towards Max Ji and the young men of the Ji Clan like sharp arrows. Max Ji and his companions
were taken aback by this sudden attack.
