Realm-Hopping Martial Master-Chapter 750 - 417: One Year Later—Changes in the Endless Sea’s Situation within the Inner Ring of the Star Ruins Realm

"Lord Jiang..."

In the dining hall of the Star Sky Giant Ship, the east side is inclined towards classical style, while the west side leans towards technology.

Various kinds of Ninth Rank Star Beast Meat are placed as if in a buffet, free for sampling.

By the time Jiang Shu arrives, there are already a dozen or so geniuses raising their glasses, drinking and conversing early.

This time, most of the geniuses entering the Eternal Tower have long been invested in by the Jiuyu Commerce Alliance and are quite familiar with one another.

None of these geniuses belong to the Human Clan.

A young man with a thunder horn on his head first directs his gaze towards Jiang Shu; he is a genius of the Thunder Horn Clan, naturally attuned to thunder, with a special understanding of Thunder Origin.

Their clan's cultivation method involves continuously tempering the body and soul through thunder, breaking shackles until reaching their limit.

Nearby, a youth from the Shadow Clan gazes coldly; born with the skill of concealment, the Shadow Clan is adept at assassination, attuned to Slaughter Origin and Space Origin. Upon Jiang Shu's entrance, his figure slightly flickers, seeming to meld tightly with the surrounding space, ready to vanish at any moment.

The other geniuses present also hail from various exceptionally gifted races; some are born with Fourth Rank, or even Fifth or Sixth Rank strength, rapidly perceiving Original Law, reaching such a realm within mere centuries with sufficient resources.

In terms of talent, they far surpass some geniuses from the Cang Mang Domain.

Of course, these geniuses have their limitations.

Although their current cultivation speeds are fast, they perceive only their race-aligned cosmic origins.

Just like the Thunder Horn Clan genius, who has always been comprehending Thunder Origin. Before the Tenth Rank, his cultivation speed in Thunder Origin is distinctly ahead, far surpassing many geniuses.

However, upon reaching the Tenth Rank, his ceiling is almost locked; taking even one step forward becomes considerably more difficult.

Comprehending other cosmic origins is entirely incapable of the former speed, and cultivation slows significantly.

In comparison, Lord Jiang, without aligned cosmic origins, still achieves such a realm, demonstrating his terrifying talent.

Moreover, according to the Jiuyu Commerce Alliance's genius rankings, Lord Jiang is considered a Supreme Genius, his status a level above theirs.

Several geniuses have already started approaching Jiang Shu, initiating conversation.

Towards these racial geniuses, Jiang Shu naturally displays no arrogance, engaging in lively discussions about Thunder Origin with the Thunder Horn Clan genius, deliberating on Space Origin with the Shadow Clan genius, and exchanging insights on Blood Essence Origin with the Titan Clan genius.

"Lord Jiang, in this journey into the Eternal Tower, which floor do you believe you can reach?"

After several days of conversing, the geniuses become increasingly familiar with Jiang Shu.

Especially the Titan Clan genius Yuan Tai, who after a contest with Jiang Shu, completely concedes; he never expected that he would lose to the small Human Clan in the area he excelled in the most, his physique.

"How could I know? Reaching the Fourth Floor would be a victory."

Jiang Shu responds with a smile.

After several bouts with Yuan Tai, he finally discovers a deficiency in his physique, although addressing it would require quite some time, he believes that once remedied, his physique could successfully fuse the fiftieth Blood Crystal, further advancing his understanding of Blood Essence Dao.

"The Fourth Floor... That's a factor of sixteen. I feel reaching the Third Floor would be commendable."

Yuan Tai's voice buzzes; within the Star Sky Giant Ship, his communication naturally cannot be as loud as usual, lest it disturb other geniuses.

"Entering the Eternal Tower presents limitless opportunities. For us, stepping into the Tenth Rank isn't considered difficult; the challenge lies in how far we can tread along the Tenth Rank path."

"The Ninth Rank ultimately focuses on self, but upon reaching the Tenth Rank, one can form an entire domain; without comprehending a whole cosmic origin, achieving this stage is utterly impossible. The more cosmic origins comprehended, the stronger the domain becomes."

Through exchanges and contests with various racial geniuses, Jiang Shu gains deeper insights into cultivation.

Even just in the outer circle, even merely encountering geniuses from powerful forces like the Jiuyu Commerce Alliance, there are so many racial geniuses; upon reaching the inner circle, there will only be more.

They vie to enter the Third Floor, Fourth Floor.

Meanwhile, geniuses from the inner circle might reach the Fifth Floor, even the Sixth Floor.

After becoming familiar with these geniuses, Jiang Shu does not continue idle chatting.

Returning to his room, he immerses himself again in cultivation.

Several months later.

Jiang Shu grips the fiftieth Blood Crystal, attempting fusion for the fourth time.

The previous three fusion attempts have all failed, yet aside from the first, which involved intense soul and bodily tremors, the symptoms have become increasingly mild in subsequent attempts.

This time, there is a significant probability of successful fusion!

Strands of Primordial Power wrap around the Blood Crystal, its surging energy entering Jiang Shu's body through the Primordial Power.

Although not excessively powerful, the Blood Essence Dao Prototype seems to suddenly expand once within Jiang Shu's body, and the familiar pain descends again.

This time, despite still forcing his eyes shut, his brow furrowed and body trembling uncontrollably, Jiang Shu's complexion does not appear pale.

"Phew..."
