But immediately after, a flash of inspiration hit Jasper’s mind. He said to Oswin excitedly, "Commander, if that Senior could intervene on account of your close friend, then the relationship between this Senior and your friend must be quite deep."

"You and your close friend share a very deep bond. Otherwise, he would not have passed on sword talismans comparable to heavy treasures to you."

"How about you write a letter explaining the stakes and detailing your current situation? You can ask your close friend to inquire about this Senior’s identity or request his assistance."

"Man proposes, God disposes. Perhaps, on account of your close friend, it is not entirely impossible for that Senior to lend a helping hand."

"Even if this Senior refuses, we can only leave it to fate and figure out other countermeasures to deal with the South-Subduing King, adapting as things come."

Oswin pondered for a moment, a trace of helplessness appearing in his eyes. He could only resort to this last option.

In Inkwood Academy, Adam was sitting at the desk by the window. He did not know that Oswin was already speculating about his identity and treating him as a savior.

Adam spent the entire afternoon reading historical records. Although he had comprehended some cultivation techniques, the improvement to his strength was not very significant.

The history books mostly recorded the illustrious, supreme figures of Silver Willow from the past thousand years.

There were also biographies of peerless figures from beyond Silver Willow, or mythological legends, but they made up too small a proportion.

Currently, his cultivation had stepped into the first stage of the Mortal Supreme realm, Comprehending the Dao, his overall combat prowess was even more tyrannical than most existences who had reached the Entering the Dao stage.

To leave a mark in the historical annals of Silver Willow right after stepping into the Mortal Supreme realm meant that his current strength already surpassed most of the supreme figures recorded in Silver Willow’s history books.

Naturally, the techniques comprehended from them would not improve him much.

A trace of worry flashed through Adam’s eyes. He could only trigger his God-Tier Comprehension by earnestly reading books, thereby comprehending the techniques recorded within them to improve his strength.

In less than two months, he had gone from the fifth level of Qi Refining into the Mortal Supreme realm, his strength had undergone an earth-shattering transformation, and this relied entirely on his God-Tier Comprehension.

If he could not comprehend God-Tier techniques from his reading, it would be very difficult for his strength to continue increasing at that rapid pace.

Of course, nothing was absolute. If he could find historical texts recording mythological legends among the sea of books, his strength could still experience a massive leap.

But this would cost a huge amount of time, greatly delaying his improvement. This was unacceptable.

Before the Sixth Heaven and Earth Upheaval arrived, every minute and second was precious. His current strength, looking at the entirety of Silver Willow, was absolutely not considered invincible.

Not to mention those far away, the Sword Sect Master alone far surpassed him.

What was more, Desolate Sword had said that when the Heaven and Earth Upheaval evolved to its peak, the Ancient Ash Clan would step out from the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm.

Toward the Ancient Ash Clan, Adam held a deep wariness.

For someone of the younger generation to become a Great Grandmaster, a clan with such ancient heritage surely had old monsters hidden away.

Because of Cecilia’s Innate Dao Body, he had eliminated two descendants of the Ancient Ash Clan, creating an irreconcilable blood feud with them.

Before they completely emerged into the world, he had to rapidly increase his strength. Otherwise, if the matter regarding Cecilia was exposed, he would have no power to protect himself.

Should I go to the Silver Willow Martial Tower in the Imperial Palace? A thought suddenly popped into Adam’s mind.

Within the Silver Willow Imperial Palace, there was a pagoda named the Silver Willow Martial Tower.

The tower was divided into seven floors and was built by the first Emperor of Silver Willow.

A thousand years ago, the first Emperor, Solaris, rose meteorically. With peerless aptitude, he successfully stepped into the Heaven and Earth Deity realm and founded the Silver Willow Dynasty.

After founding the dynasty, in order to stabilize the nation and ensure its heritage, he ordered all cultivators in the world to hand over their cultivation techniques to the imperial family.

Solaris’s action was undoubtedly risking universal condemnation. Many cultivators rebelled, but they were ruthlessly suppressed by him.

Left with no choice, the cultivators of the world could only obey and hand over their methods. This was the origin of the Silver Willow Martial Tower.

Of course, not just any cultivator was qualified to hand over their methods. Only cultivators who were famous in Silver Willow at that time had the qualification.

A thousand years ago, cultivation in Silver Willow flourished to the extreme. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

The cultivators who could become famous back then would absolutely be considered resounding figures today.

The Silver Willow Martial Tower had seven floors in total. Even a cultivation technique from just the first floor, if placed in the outside world, would be something people would fight tooth and nail over.

Aside from truly powerful martial families, ordinary martial families would treat such a method as their core clan-protecting technique.

As for what cultivation techniques were hidden on the seventh floor, no one knew.

Over the past thousand years, who knew how many Mortal Supremes coveted the methods within the tower and tried to force their way in, only to be struck down by the Silver Willow Imperial Family’s tower guardians.

The seventh floor of the Silver Willow Martial Tower had always been a topic of after-dinner conversation for the commoners of the capital.

Some speculated it contained Deity-level cultivation techniques, while others claimed it held the inheritances of ancient experts.

As for what was true or false, no one had ever been able to verify it.
