Martial Master

This was an astonishing test of the martial artist's control over the Holy Yuan.

Because the spatial wormholes in front were too dense, just comprehending these wormholes, clarifying their positions and strengths, and then figuring out a way to strike was not an easy task.

Only true prodigies could accomplish this, requiring a certain level of comprehension and control.

As for those seasoned experts who had only just entered the ranks of Peerless Earth Saints, there was no way they could pass this challenge. After all, the longer one took to enter the Peerless Earth Saint realm signified weaker talent. It might take an entire incense stick's time just to clarify the positions of these spatial wormholes.

Countless strong individuals had been eliminated at this stage.

Qin Chen smiled slightly. While this level was difficult for others, it was naturally not challenging for him.

Wasn't the understanding of Spatial Law one of his strongest abilities?

Qin Chen looked at the jade tablet, and with a thought, a surge of Holy Yuan energy burst forth, striking at the jade tablet.

This was the power of Holy Yuan energy.

At a certain level of strength, a single thought could invoke the rules of heaven and earth, even shattering massive stars! Some top-tier experts could kill with a single glare, relying on this terrifying aura.

The Holy Yuan energy passed through the spatial wormholes without any obstruction.

Crack! The jade tablet immediately shattered.

Qin Chen smiled slightly. Though he was far from being able to obliterate stars with a single thought, breaking a jade tablet was no difficulty at all.

Moreover, he had merely delivered a casual strike and hadn’t even utilized his substantial soul power; otherwise, the aura he summoned would have been even more terrifying.

"You can strike when you're near the jade tablet," the spirit suddenly spoke.

Qin Chen was taken aback.

Damn, why not say it earlier?

He still had quite a distance to the jade tablet.

"Congratulations, you have passed the third level and can enter the fourth level," the spirit said.

"What about my ranking?" Qin Chen asked.

"There is no ranking for this level," the spirit replied.

Qin Chen shrugged, not concerned.

Then, a passage appeared, and Qin Chen entered the fourth level.

However, this fourth level was different from before. Ahead, a platform appeared.

This level seemed to involve a martial competition, but who was the opponent?

Buzz! On the platform, a black shadow appeared, revealing a domineering man. It was vaguely evident that he had a robust figure and extraordinary aura, but his appearance was indiscernible.

"Block one of his attacks, and you can pass the fourth level," the spirit said.

"Youth, strike!" the black shadow said, his voice cold and possessing a compelling dominance.

Qin Chen was taken aback: "Why does this feel so much like a real person?"

It wasn’t just about appearance; it was the aura, the naturalness, and the voice. It didn’t seem like a simulated entity, but a genuine prodigy, though his face was unclear.

"This is indeed a strong individual, created using a spiritual imprint left behind by him," the spirit explained. "Any first-place participant here can leave a spiritual imprint for future testing."

Qin Chen’s curiosity deepened. "So who is this?"

"I am Xuanyuan Jue!" the black shadow proclaimed proudly.

"Xuanyuan Jue, thirty thousand years ago he passed the Ancient Holy Tower's test, entering the ninth level of the Ancient Holy Tower, ranking first in its history. A millennia later, he became a Saint Lord and is now the highest offering of the Heavenly Work. Three thousand years ago, he vanished from the demon battlefield, and to this day, there has been no trace." the spirit elaborated.

Saint Lord! Qin Chen was shocked. This was a figure of a Saint Lord, the highest offering of the Heavenly Work.

Moreover, he had entered the Ancient Holy Tower's ninth level, being an unparalleled prodigy. No wonder he could rank first in the Ancient Holy Tower.

"Over the years, how many individuals have entered the ninth level of the Ancient Holy Tower, and how many have become Saint Lords?" Qin Chen asked curiously.
