Outside the Symbol Master Tower, when one of the two points of light on the seventh level disappeared, the originally rather noisy space turned silent in an instant.
This strange silence lasted for a few moments before it was broken by a panicked cry.
"The light spots are disappearing!"
"Someone has entered the eighth floor!"
"How is this possible? Even the Third Seal Symbol Master would find it very difficult to enter, who could do it?”
"Who is this? Zhou Tong or Lin Dong?”
"I think most likely it was Zhou Tong ..."
"Omong was empty, Lin Dong was not inferior to Zhou Tong's ..."
“……”
As he heard the fanfare and quarrel that practically broke out in a split second, grandmaster Yan, who was originally sitting on a stone chair, suddenly stood up. His gaze was fixed rigidly at the eighth level of the Symbol Master Tower. Now, there was indeed a speck of light in a place that no one had entered in all these years.
"Who is this? Could it really be Lin Dong?”
At this moment, even with the temperament of grandmaster Yan, unbearable nervousness and excitement appeared in his eyes. He was well aware of how difficult it was to enter the eighth floor, according to his original expectations, although Lin Dong and Zhou Tong's abilities were not weak, they were definitely unable to climb up to the eighth floor. However, the reality that appeared before his eyes told him that he had wrongly predicted!
However, at this moment, even he was not sure who exactly managed to break into the eighth level. Was it Lin Dong or Zhou Tong? No one knows exactly what happened inside during this period of time ...
Initially, they thought a win would be determined probably only after a certain period of time. After all, both of them were at the seventh level, since that was the case, they needed to see who could last longer. But, the recent turn of events directly destroyed this thought.
According to the rules of the Battle Tower, no matter how long you stay at a lower level, as long as one could rise to a level higher than you, it would be, even if he only stayed there for a few minutes, he would still be there. And this was also why Lin Dong and Zhou Tong had intended to risk their lives. As long as one of them could ascend to the eighth floor, the result would be decided!
However, what caused the other Yan grandmaster to be confused right now was: who exactly had stepped into the eighth level.
If it was Zhou Tong, Yan City would have completely lost this time and the owner of the Symbol Master Tower would have changed. But, if it was Lin Dong, this Symbol Master Tower would belong to Yan City like before!
While grandmaster Yan was worried, on one side, Han Yun's fist was also clenched tightly within his sleeve. However, his expression was a bit ugly. He knew Zhou Tong very well, if they said that the latter was able to survive on the seventh floor for some time, he would trust him firmly without a doubt, but, if they were to talk about entering the eighth floor, the chances of it being extremely low.
That is, the one who managed to enter the eighth level was very likely a very mediocre boy, Lin Dong!
At this thought, the corner of Han Yun's eyes involuntarily twitched. He never expected that because of Lin Dong, an unexpected event had now occurred and messed up the victory that was originally in his grasp.
“It was just a guess, not necessarily true. Perhaps Zhou Tong suddenly broke through and happened to enter the eighth level. That Lin Dong brat did not look capable, how could he possibly enter the eighth level.”.
At this moment, Han Yun could only comfort himself in his heart. He did not know why, but, as he comforted himself, the unease in his heart grew stronger.
……
While the sky seemed to have flipped over outside the Symbol Master Tower, as the main topic of their quarrel, Lin Dong was currently a little confused.
The eighth floor of the Symbol Master Tower was slightly smaller than the floor below. Although this area was not considered large, the pressure of the Mental Energy here was extremely strong. However, what was unusual about this situation was that: the pressure of sufficient Mental Energy to destroy his life did not feel too strong for the current Lin Dong.
"Is this because of the Soul Symbol of Destiny ..."
Lin Dong considered for a moment before he understood that it was most likely due to the two Fate Soul Symbols within his Niwan Palace. Immediately after, he gently closed his eyes as his mind sank into Niwan Palace. Sure enough, he discovered that the two Soul Fate Symbols had automatically turned into two Soul Symbols vortexes.
What caused Lin Dong the greatest shock was that the Destiny Soul Symbols actually swallowed the pressure of the Mental Energy like viscous liquid around him.
"This Soul Symbol is really strange ..."
In response to this situation, Lin Dong was stunned for a moment. He could only smile bitterly as he shook his head, he understood that the reason why he was able to break through the Mental Energy barrier earlier, was due to the special power of the Soul Symbol. Or else, even if he could walk up to the Mental Energy barrier, he would absolutely not make it through.
However, there is no other way. If he did not try to break through and Zhou Tong managed to attack by chance, Yan City would basically lose this Battle of the Tower. Thus, it could be said that he was also forced to risk his life to that extent …
"I still need to find the so-called Qi level Secret Spirit Skill first ..." After laughing bitterly, Lin Dong raised his gaze. With the Fate Soul Symbol protecting his body, he had nothing to fear from the pressure of the Mental Energy that had threatened his life before. Since that was the case, he first had to go and find the gift that had been promised to him.
The eighth floor was not large, and there were only a few items inside. So, after Lin Dong's gaze swept one round around the place, it stopped somewhere right in front of his current position. There, a towering stone tablet stood up.
Lin Dong slowly walked towards the stone tablet. Due to the Fate Soul Symbol, walking was not as difficult as before, thus, he quickly appeared in front of the stone tablet.
The stone tablet was several feet tall, there was not too much of a strange thing about it. However, Lin Dong still felt a surge of Mental Energy briefly on the surface of the stone tablet.
As he stared at the stone tablet, Lin Dong hesitated for a while before gently closing his eyes and extending his finger to touch the stone tablet.
"Buzz!"
Just as Lin Dong's finger touched the stone tablet, the waves of Mental Energy that wrapped around it immediately spread. Soon after, it formed a large and mysterious pattern that orbited in the air. Inside, one could see several floating Mental Energy characters that vaguely looked like an array.
"Array Symbol Manifestation ..."
Lin Dong's gaze was fixated on the floating Mental Energy character. Soon after, happiness appeared in his eyes. Grandmaster Yan did not lie to him, there was indeed a Qi class Secret Spirit Skill at the eighth level.
From his character, one could tell that this Secret Spirit Skill could not compare to the shallow Secret Spirit Skill he had obtained before.
Without making a single mistake, Lin Dong read the entire sentence before muttering to himself for a moment. He then gestured with his palm as Mental Energy that had turned into a mysterious array flew down and flowed into his mind
Lin Dong closed his eyes and studied the 'Manifestation Symbol Array' he had just obtained. This continued for almost an hour before he gently opened his eyes and muttered to himself for a while. With a thought, lines of Mental Energy gushed out from his Niwan Palace before forming himself into strange figures before him. From the looks of it, it seemed like it was the 'Manifestation Symbol Array'.
“Ci!”
Lin Dong's image did not last long before a small mistake appeared. Immediately, the entire array quickly disappeared.
Upon seeing this result, Lin Dong could not help but laugh bitterly. It is indeed incomparable to an Essence level Secret Spirit Skill, it is already several times harder to practice it.
"One step at a time. I Can't believe that I won't be able to study you after getting you!
The first failure was not out of Lin Dong's expectations. After tidying up a little, he once again concentrated fully, holding his mind as he very carefully manipulated his Mental Energy to draw a strange Mental Energy Symbol Array.
There was a huge difference between the cleansing effect of the eighth level and the seventh level below. So, every time, Lin Dong's Mental Energy slowly increased. Moreover, his Fate Soul Symbol constantly swallowed the pressure of the Mental Energy here, causing his speed to become even more incredible.
The effects of staying here for one day were several times stronger than usual!
As for the ninth level above, Lin Dong did not recklessly try to enter. Even though he had the help of the Fate Soul Symbol, he had achieved victory and even obtained a Qi level Secret Spirit Skill, so, he was in no hurry to harm himself.
Therefore, after the successive and extremely intensive ride, Lin Dong finally calmed down as he began to enjoy the various benefits that the eighth floor brought ...
……
The most intense Battle of the Tower had ended and the entire Symbol Master Tower seemed to become much quieter. Everyone began to make the most of their time, once the Master Symbol Tower was opened, the pressure of the Mental Energy inside would grow stronger every day, until it finally expelled everyone. Only then would the curtain of this Battle Tower finally collapse.
This type of peace was rather torturous for grandmaster Yan and the others who were waiting outside the tower. As of now, they had no idea who had managed to ascend to the eighth floor…
Under this agonizing wait, time passed. Every day, many young Symbol Masters reluctantly walked out of the Symbol Master Tower. As the pressure of the Mental Energy within grew stronger, they were no longer able to endure.
After this Symbol Master walked out of the Symbol Master Tower, they were startled by the serious expressions of grandmaster Yan and the others. Originally, they had thought that some mishap had occurred, but after asking, they looked over in shock as their gazes concentrated on the eighth floor. Over the years, no one stepped into that place, did someone finally manage to reach it this year?
But... Who exactly is that person?
The crowd looked at each other anxiously. In their shock, a trace of curiosity and doubt could be seen.
