Chapter 1431: Chapter 1431: Cleansing the Divine Soul Body
Jing Yan slightly squinted his eyes and looked at Emperor Chang Ying.
"What does Fellow Daoist Chang Ying mean?" Jing Yan knew that Emperor Chang Ying intended to poach the cornerstone of Shadow Emperor.
"The Wanbao Divine Hall is divided into four pavilions of heaven, earth, black, and yellow. Among them, the strength of the Sky Pavilion and the Earth Pavilion stands out. The Earth Pavilion is not weaker than the Sky Pavilion," Emperor Chang Ying said slowly.
"Just now, I have already communicated with the Earth Pavilion Master. Upon hearing about Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, the Master immediately expressed a strong desire to meet. If Fellow Daoist Jing Yan decides to join the Earth Pavilion, I believe the Pavilion Master will meet him at the first opportunity. There is something Fellow Daoist Jing Yan may not know; our Earth Pavilion’s Master has the closest relationship with the Hall Master Wanbao Daoist."
"Although Fellow Daoist Jing Yan hasn’t been in the All Paths World for long, you must also know the Hall Master’s Alchemy Dao capabilities. Our Earth Pavilion’s Master can, through his relationship with the Hall Master, obtain more elixirs from the Hall Master."
"So, if Fellow Daoist Jing Yan is willing to join the Earth Pavilion, he will surely gain more benefits than in the Sky Pavilion."
"Haha... Of course, this is just a suggestion, and how to decide still depends on Fellow Daoist Jing Yan’s thoughts," Emperor Chang Ying lightly laughed as he looked at Jing Yan.
Jing Yan shook his head and said, "I can’t decide to join the Wanbao Divine Hall at the moment, please don’t mind, Fellow Daoist Chang Ying. However, if I do decide to join the Wanbao Divine Hall, I will certainly consider the Earth Pavilion first."
Hearing Jing Yan’s words, Chang Ying was not displeased; instead, there was a hint of joy in his eyes.
"No problem, Fellow Daoist Jing Yan can take his time to consider this matter, which is indeed a significant decision and not urgent," said Chang Ying, similar to Shadow Emperor, without insisting that Jing Yan make a decision.
And Jing Yan had never considered joining the Wanbao Divine Hall. He said these things merely to appease both the Shadow Emperor and Emperor Chang Ying.
"I won’t disturb you all anymore. Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, if you need my help with anything, you can come to find me anytime; I will always be at the restaurant," Emperor Chang Ying said, bowing to Jing Yan again.
"Thank you." Jing Yan also returned the gesture courteously.
"Feng’er, Dongxue! The Law Profoundness of this Quenching God Star Tower is very unique; comprehending it will greatly benefit your cultivation," Jing Yan said to Gao Feng and Jing Dongxue.
"Indeed, it is greatly beneficial. Just a brief understanding has made me feel much improvement in the Law," Gao Feng nodded.
"Father, I will start cultivating now; I need to quickly enhance my strength and strive to become a True God as soon as possible," Jing Dongxue said eagerly, her beautiful eyes full of anticipation.
Afterward, Jing Yan briefly spoke with Gou Zhun and Ning Luo. Everyone then sat down cross-legged, immersing themselves in the Law Profoundness of the Quenching God Star Tower.
The days passed by.
Months later, the Shadow Emperor came to the restaurant again to find Jing Yan, informing him that the Martial Artists inside the Quenching God Star Tower had come out and that Jing Yan could enter the Quenching God Star Tower.
"Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, do you have a mobile space with you? The Quenching God Star Tower is very unique; only one person can enter at a time. So, if there are other Martial Artists in your mobile space, that won’t work," the Shadow Emperor said with a smile.
"There are no Martial Artists in my mobile space," Jing Yan replied.
"That’s good! That’s good!" The Shadow Emperor smiled and nodded.
Moments later, Jing Yan passed through the entrance and entered the Quenching God Star Tower. As for the safety of Gao Feng and the others, Jing Yan was not worried. Now that the Wanbao Divine Hall wished to attract him, they certainly wouldn’t do anything adverse to Gao Feng and the others while he was in the Quenching God Star Tower.
Moreover, the Star Tower Restaurant has rules prohibiting anyone from fighting inside. This point is well known throughout the All Paths World. Although the Wanbao Divine Hall is domineering and forceful, they still visibly abide by some of their established rules on the surface.
...
"Hiss..."
In the First Layer of the Quenching God Star Tower, as soon as Jing Yan entered, energy fluctuations surged in from all directions.
These energy fluctuations were very special.
They were specifically targeting the Martial Artist’s Divine Soul Body.
Jing Yan vaguely felt that the energy within the Quenching God Star Tower had certain similarities with the Divine Soul Storm Secret Method he created. Of course, the energy inside the Quenching God Star Tower was much more mild compared to the Divine Soul Storm.
This energy targeted the Martial Artist’s Divine Soul but did not erupt instantly. Instead, it continually washed the Martial Artist’s Divine Soul Body, like a trickling stream.
The meaning of Quenching God lies here.
The space of the First Layer of the Quenching God Star Tower wasn’t large; it seemed like a Great Hall. In the center of the Great Hall, there was a staircase by which one could ascend to the Second Layer.
"The effect is astonishing!" Jing Yan quickly sensed changes in his Divine Soul Body.
The energy of the Quenching God Star Tower could be said to constantly attack the Martial Artist’s Divine Soul Body. But while attacking, it also nourished the Divine Soul Body, making it more pure and solid.
In the First Layer of the Quenching God Star Tower, Jing Yan felt no pressure at all.
After all, he was an Emperor level God Lord, and his Divine Soul Body was especially robust. The energy fluctuations of the First Layer of the Quenching God Star Tower had little impact on his Divine Soul Body. However, an ordinary God Lord entering might be very cautious. If their Divine Soul Body couldn’t withstand the energy of the Quenching God Star Tower, then a Martial Artist staying here might have their soul scattered.
Now Jing Yan also understood why Gou Zhun said that ordinary Martial Artists at the Divine Lord Realm could only ascend to the Third Layer of the Quenching God Star Tower.
The Quenching God Star Tower had a total of nine layers, with the energy fluctuations becoming stronger as one ascended. Ordinary God Lords reaching the Fourth Layer could have their Divine Soul Body annihilated by the Tower’s energy.
If a Martial Artist’s Divine Soul Body is annihilated, they will be entirely dead.
However, not many Martial Artists die in the Quenching God Star Tower. Near the stairway on each layer of the Quenching God Star Tower, there is a Teleportation Array. If a Martial Artist feels their Divine Soul Body can’t bear it anymore, they can use the Teleportation Array to leave. So over the countless years, the number of Martial Artists who truly died inside is very scarce.
Jing Yan sat cross-legged, not in a rush to ascend to the Second Layer. Although the energy fluctuations of the First Layer weren’t strong, they still had a significant cleansing effect on his Divine Soul Body; he could stay here for eighty-one days.
Jing Yan just needed to ascend to the Second Layer before the time ended.
This was also the choice of the other Martial Artists entering the Quenching God Star Tower; almost none hurried to ascend to higher layers.
Outside the Quenching God Star Tower, on the Star Tower Light Curtain Wall, the red dot representing Jing Yan remained at the First Layer.
Eighty days quickly passed.
