Primordial Star Scripture-Chapter 748 - 700: Storming the Tower!
While speaking, the six-star sovereign extended his large hand, and a teleportation array immediately materialized on the ground.
Then the six-star sovereign continued, "Lastly, I remind you once again, your scores for the third round will be determined by the speed at which you clear the ’Wind Origin Tower’. Therefore, no matter what means you use, pass through the ’Wind Origin Tower’ as quickly as possible!"
"Once each of you enters the ’Wind Origin Tower’, you will be in an individual challenge space, so you do not need to worry about interference from others. In addition, your location within the ’Wind Origin Tower’ will be displayed on the rankings screen."
"Everyone, once you fly into the teleportation array, you will be transported to the first layer of the ’Wind Origin Tower’."
"Now, begin your assessment!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As soon as the words of the six-star sovereign fell, the hundred thousand martial artists participating in the third round of the assessment all moved at once, swarming into the teleportation array like locusts.
The next moment, these figures disappeared from within the teleportation array and entered the seven-layer ’Wind Origin Tower’ located in the Third Ancient Battlefield.
As the assessors entered the ’Wind Origin Tower’ and officially started the third round of the assessment, the hundreds of millions of martial artists observing the assessment outside were all staring intently at the rankings screen.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Everyone saw that the instant the hundred thousand assessors disappeared from the teleportation array, the word "First Layer" appeared next to the name of each assessor on the rankings screen.
Clearly, this indicated that the hundred thousand assessors were now in the first layer of the ’Wind Origin Tower’, starting the competition!
...
"Is this the first layer of the ’Wind Origin Tower’?"
Inside the Wind Origin Tower.
Ye Chen surveyed the vast treasure palace he found himself in.
Ye Chen saw that the patterns of countless ancient beasts were carved on the four walls, ceiling, and floor of the vast treasure palace.
Just as Ye Chen was teleported into this vast treasure palace, he saw the ancient beast patterns begin to light up one by one.
Following that, a resounding voice suddenly echoed throughout the entire palace, "Assessor, you are now in the first layer of the ’Wind Origin Tower’."
"To pass through this layer, you must kill a thousand ancient beasts."
"If you fail to reach the kill count requirement or are defeated by an ancient beast, you will be trapped in this first layer until the assessment is over."
"The killing of ancient beasts will officially start after thirty breaths. Now, assessor, prepare for battle!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After the voice fell, a succession of sounds echoed throughout the vast treasure palace like a countdown.
The ancient beast patterns also seemed to come alive, as if they were gathering signs of life.
Watching the changes around him, Ye Chen thought to himself, "To pass through this first layer, I need to kill a thousand ancient beasts. It seems that the beasts I have to kill come from these ancient beast patterns."
"To be able to refine ancient beasts into these patterns and fight separately against the hundred thousand assessors in different folded spaces—such skills truly befit a great powerhouse like Senior Feng Luo!"
After pondering for a moment, Ye Chen looked at the increasingly bright ancient beast patterns with a resolute gleam in his eyes.
"I still need to go to the sixth layer for a month of inheritance training under senior Feng Luo, so I can’t afford to waste time on the other layers."
"This layer, I will clear it with the utmost speed!"
As Ye Chen considered his course of action, the thirty breaths finally elapsed, and the ancient beast patterns became completely illuminated.
At last, from within the brightly lit patterns, a frenzy of ancient beasts began to emerge!
These ancient beasts were all ordinary Nine Tribulation True Gods.
Having to kill a thousand of such beasts to enter the second layer might be troublesome for many True Gods, but for Ye Chen, it was exceedingly simple.
Ye Chen’s combat power at this point was such that he could even take on a high-ranking god king, let alone these ordinary Nine Tribulation True God ancient beasts.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
With merely a flip of his palm, Ye Chen sent out a flurry of sword light shadows sweeping across the entire palace.
As these sword light shadows ravaged through, a vast number of ancient beasts were slaughtered.
Almost in the span of a few breaths, the number of ancient beasts Ye Chen killed had reached a thousand.
Boom!
After Ye Chen successfully killed a thousand ancient beasts, a staircase leading to the second layer of the ’Wind Origin Tower’ appeared directly.
Ye Chen stepped forward and entered the second layer of the ’Wind Origin Tower’.
Upon entering the second layer, Ye Chen immediately saw that it was also a vast treasure palace.
And within the palace, there were dense and numerous giant spider webs everywhere.
These spider webs even formed interwoven spider web formations, and within different positions of these formations, there were weirdly large Guardian Ancient Spiders.
As Ye Chen examined the situation in the second layer, similar to the first, another voice came, "Assessor, to pass through the second layer and enter the third, you must slay ninety-nine Guardian Ancient Spiders."
"The killing will start after thirty breaths."
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Between the moments of that voice speaking, the giant spider Ancient Beasts atop the web array sprayed out shimmering threads from their mouths.
These threads connected the giant spider Ancient Beasts to each other, and as the threads connected, the combat power of the spider Ancients Beasts rapidly soared.

Ye Chen watched the spider Ancient Beasts beginning to transform within the array, yet his expression remained entirely unmoved.
When the moment of battle arrived, "Crimson Fire Flying Sword" instantly flew from Ye Chen’s forehead, slaughtering toward the giant spider Ancient Beasts atop the web array.
Eight breaths later, Ye Chen, stepping over the carcass of the ninety-nine Guardian Ancient Spiders, advanced from the staircase that he had just descended, heading toward the third floor.
Just like this.
Inside the Wind Origin Tower, Ye Chen began a rapid spree of killing, a rapid surge forward. Experience new tales on novelbuddy
Not just Ye Chen, the other candidates were also beginning to push toward higher floors of the "Wind Origin Tower."
Everyone wanted to be the first to climb to the top of the "Wind Origin Tower"!
...
Outside the assessment area.
Hundreds of millions of spectators were intently staring at the ranking screen.
When they saw that all the names on the ranking screen still bore the label "first floor," and then, suddenly, "second floor" appeared, numerous people were shaken.
"So fast, it’s just been a few dozen breaths, and someone has entered the second floor of the ’Wind Origin Tower’ already!"
All eyes then turned to the name in front of the "second floor" marking, and they directly saw that it was at the very top of the ranking screen, the first line, where "second floor" appeared.
And the name at the very top of the first line was none other than Ye Chen!
"Ye Chen, first in the second round of assessment, and now in the third round, he is once again leading the charge!"
"He has become the first person to enter the second floor of the ’Wind Origin Tower’!"
While these discussions were on-going, with a "swoosh," divine light flickered, and the "second floor" behind Ye Chen’s name changed directly to "third floor."
"My God."
"Ye Chen has entered the third floor now!"
"This, it’s only been a few dozen breaths, and Ye Chen has climbed up another level!"
When people saw that Ye Chen had entered the third floor, their attention also shifted to the motion below.
"Ye Chen has reached the third floor, so Tianyu Beiling, Mo Yuan, and the second-ranked Xue Ningning from the second round of assessment are closely following behind; they, too, have broken into the second floor!"
Not long after these words fell, a large group of people broke into the second floor.
By then, Tianyu Beiling, Mo Yuan, Xue Ningning, and others had also burst into the third floor.
"Tianyu Beiling and Mo Yuan have caught up with Ye Chen, they’ve entered the third floor as well!"
Many cried out in surprise.
Before their cries of surprise had dissipated, the next moment, a burst of commotion erupted because the word behind Ye Chen’s name had starkly become "fourth floor"!
This signified that although the others had caught up with Ye Chen’s progress, Ye Chen had once again widened the gap, charging into the "Wind Origin Tower" fourth floor first!
Such a chase excited and even made some of the divine sovereigns and supreme lords in the audience nervous.
No one knew how the attempt to conquer the "Wind Origin Tower" would ultimately end up.
However, this intense competition began to slow down as soon as Ye Chen entered the fourth floor.
Ye Chen stayed in the fourth floor for several hours, yet he did not break through to the fifth floor.
Following Ye Chen, Tianyu Beiling and the others successively entered the fourth floor, but like Ye Chen, their speed also slowed down significantly on the fourth floor.
Seeing such a scene, all the warriors watching the battle knew that the fourth floor of the "Wind Origin Tower" must have drastically increased in difficulty, which is why so many were stuck there.
Only after two hours had passed did a figure break through to the fifth floor first—and that figure was Ye Chen!
This time, not long after Ye Chen entered the fifth floor, he didn’t pause for long and surged into the "Wind Origin Tower" sixth floor in one go.
The sixth floor, ah!
Only one last floor remained before conquering the entire seven floors of the Wind Origin Tower!
Seeing this, hearts of countless people in the arena lifted.
"Ye Chen is ahead by more than two levels; the majority of the others are still trapped below the fourth floor, and even Tianyu Beiling and Xue Ningning, who are closest to Ye Chen, are stuck on the fourth floor with no progress."
"But Ye Chen has entered the sixth floor!"
"Could it be that Ye Chen is going to be first in the third round of assessments?!"
"To conquer the Wind Origin Tower in one day would yield three hundred thousand assessment points. With his lead from the previous round, Ye Chen could completely dominate the ranking screen!"
As countless people were discussing, they found that after entering the sixth floor, there had been no further movement from Ye Chen.
Three days passed, and following Ye Chen, Tianyu Beiling, Mo Yuan, Xue Ningning, and others all broke into the sixth floor. Yet, there was still no movement from Ye Chen.
Even on the fourth day, Tianyu Beiling was the first to emerge from the "Wind Origin Tower," earning two hundred and seventy thousand assessment points, while Ye Chen still remained on the sixth floor!
